"What did you think?" He asked sounding irritated With tears flowing down my eyes I stammered "I...I..I thought you-" cutting me short he smirked then said "You thought I loved you. Did you expect me to love you?" I gently squeezed his hands then smiled sadly "Don't do this please.. I-" "I don't have time for all this" he said then left

Chapter 1 The Interview

Tess p.o.v

I woke up by the continuous buzzing of my alarm, stretching my hands I turned it off and continued my sleep.

" Urghhh leaving me alone" i said sleepy but my phone continued buzzing. Checking the phone I saw 38missed calls from my bestie and 4 snoozed alarms. "8:15!!! Oh my God my interview!!!" I rushed to the bathroom and took a quickest shower ever, dressed up then rushed out. I immediately hailed a taxi and by the time I got to 'Quins & co' it was already 9:30. 'oh God please help me'. Rushing to where the interview was held I was already too catch up

"Sir I'm really sorry am late I was held by traffic"

"Sorry ma'am the interview is over you can come back next year" the bald man said trying to l

" No no sir I'm really sorry, please I need this Job please" I said almost crying.

He sighed then said " alright come with me"

After the interview I went straight home thanking my lucky stars that I was interviewed and hopping I got the job.

ONE WEEK

"Is it out yet?" My best friend Jenna asked

"I dunno am scared.. I don't think they'd give me cause I was latee"

" No one told you to be a lazy-" I pinched her before she could finish. Taking my laptop I opened my email and saw I had one new message from Quin's & co, opening it I read it and squealed loudly " I got the jobbbbbb" Jenna took the laptop and read the mail "oh my gosh Tess am so happy for you!" She said then hugged me "But Tess you're working as Alex Quin secretary"

" Yea so?" I asked still smiling

" Don't tell me you don't know anything about your boss?"

" I do know that he's the youngest guy to reach the top at the age of 15, making him the youngest billionaires in the entire world, cruel, doesn't take no for an answer, never give his enemies strike blah blah blah"

" Yea apart from all that he is a woman hater. He doesn't let women get close to him at all even and those that manage to get close to him all got their legs cut off"

I gaspppp

" Are you just trying to make me scared?"

" No! I'm really serious"

" Well I don't believe you cause if he didn't want women close to him then why was I hired hmmm"

" That's the thing "

"Well whatever I got the job and am starting on Monday I gotta go shopping "

MEANWHILE

" I'm expecting a new male secretary on Monday morning "

" S.. sir I... I.."

" I don't have time for all this stammering"

"I.. I couldn't get you a male secretary"

"Why is that?"

"They weren't up to expectations so I had to get a female"

He paused what he was doing for the first time and looked at him coldly

"Leave my office" he said coldly making the bald man leave in fright

COALESCENCE OF THE FIVE SERIES BOOK ONE: THE 5-TIME REJECTED GAMMA & THE LYCAN KING BOOK TWO: THE ROGUES WHO WENT ROGUE BOOK THREE: THE INDOMITABLE HUNTRESS & THE HARDENED DUKE *** BOOK ONE: After being rejected by 5 mates, Gamma Lucianne pleaded with the Moon Goddess to spare her from any further mate-bonds. To her dismay, she is being bonded for the sixth time. What’s worse is that her sixth-chance mate is the most powerful creature ruling over all werewolves and Lycans - the Lycan King himself. She is certain, dead certain, that a rejection would come sooner or later, though she hopes for it to be sooner. King Alexandar was ecstatic to meet his bonded mate, and couldn’t thank their Goddess enough for gifting him someone so perfect. However, he soon realizes that this gift is reluctant to accept him, and more than willing to sever their bond. He tries to connect with her but she seems so far away. He is desperate to get intimate with her but she seems reluctant to open up to him. He tries to tell her that he is willing to commit to her for the rest of his life but she doesn’t seem to believe him. He is pleading for a chance: a chance to get to know her; a chance to show her that he’s different; and a chance to love her. But when not-so-subtle crushes, jealous suitors, self-entitled Queen-wannabes, an old flame, a silent protector and a past wedding engagement threaten to jeopardize their relationship, will Lucianne and Xandar still choose to be together? Is their love strong enough to overcome everything and everyone? Or will Lucianne resort to enduring a sixth rejection from the one person she thought she could entrust her heart with?
