The Alpha’s Human Mate

He got to the office only to see Callum, whom had been waiting for him since two hours ago.

“Dude, I’ve been calling you since last night. Where the hell did you put your phone?” Callum said as soon as he saw him enter the room. “And also, who was the girl you took with you? Have you finally found your mate?”

“Which question do you want me to answer first?” Alex asked, moving towards his chair. He sat down and opened a file on his table.

“Why don’t you start by telling me who you took with you last night? Who was the girl? Huh?” Callum asked, sitting on one of the chairs before him. But instead of answering him immediately, Alex sighed and looked at him. “My mate is human.”

Callum froze in shock. “Huh?! How’s that possible? You finally found your mate, and you realize she’s human?” He asked with the same surprised expression.

“Shocking, right! Alex said, flipping the file before him. He didn’t want to talk about it, but with Callum troubling him, he has no choice.

“Is she pretty?” Callum asked, but when he saw his glare, he smiled and asked another question. “So, what are you going to do?”

“What am I going to do?” Alex asked, dropping the file on the table. “I’m going to stay away from that human; it’s a good thing she left early in the morning before I could see her.” Alex said, looking at him.

“What?! She dumped you. I can’t believe that.” Callum said, bursting into laughter, but stopped when he received another glare. “OK, fine. You can’t stay away from her when you know how long your wolf has been looking for a mate.

“I know, but how could my mate be a human? That is forbidden.” Alex said, looking at him intently.

“Then would you prefer to stay alone for the rest of your life, or would you get married to whoever your mother chooses for you?” Callum replied, but Alex did not say anything; he only sighed in frustration and ran his hand into his hair, with his back resting on his chair.

No wolf was allowed to have a human as a mate, but here he was, an alpha with a human mate.

“Wait a minute! Did you mark her?” Callum asked, but he didn’t receive any reply. Instead, he only heard a groan. “Looks like you’ve already found our Luna,” Callum said with a happy face before leaving his office.

“Oh my goodness! I’m so tired.” She said, stretching her hands in the air. She has just applied for a job at Stewart Cooperation, and her interview is scheduled for tomorrow by eight in the morning.

She checked her phone and saw that the time had gone by so fast; it was already five in the evening. She took her phone to call Sam, but he did not pick up.

She sighed, but slowly her mind started drifting towards last night. “Don’t think about that, Ellie. She said to herself, before standing up to go cook.

The next day, she quickly got ready and took a taxi to the Stewart Corporation. It was a big company in the city, but not as big as the Warren Corporation. She wanted to apply to Warren, but she knew she might not be able to get in.

She entered the company and saw a young lady with heavy makeup behind the counter. “Good morning; I’m here for the interview.” She said to the lady.

“You’re five minutes late.” The girl said without greeting her back or even looking at her.

“Stop wasting your time and join those people over there.” She said, pointing towards some people sitting down on a long chair. Ellie did not say anything; she went in the direction and sat down on an empty seat.

Just then a lady with a baby face, probably in her early twenties, turned to her and said, “Hey! Are you also nervous?” She said, smiling at her. Anyone could easily tell that she was nervous; she was rubbing her sweaty hands together.

Ellie smiled at her and said, “Well, I’m nervous, but not really. I don’t think you should be nervous; it’s just an interview. Just be yourself.” She smiled, to which the lady also smiled back at her.

“My name is Christina.” The lady introduced herself. What’s yours?

“I’m Ellie. It’s nice to meet you. She replied to which they talked for some time until Christina was called in.

They both bid their goodbye. After a while, Ellie was also called in. She applied for the interview as a marketer.

“Ms. Ellie, please follow me.” A woman said. She also followed the woman and entered a room where two women and a man were sitting with pens and books on the table.

“Good morning.” She said, greeting the people in the room, but only the woman in the middle replied. “So, Ms. Ellie, I can see you have good qualifications. Apart from your qualifications, why should we hire you?”

“Well, as a start, I have all the skills and work experience required for the job. Oh, and on top of that, I have experience working with tech companies, so I’ll be able to pick up all the product specifics much faster than the other candidates.” She said, smiling at the woman.

“Hmm ok.”

“Why did you leave your previous job?” The woman asked.

“Well. It’s kind of personal,” she replied.

“I’m sorry, Ms. Ellie, but you’ll have to tell us why you left your previous job.” The other woman in the room said.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

Ellie looked at the woman and sighed silently before talking. “I had to leave because he always tries to trick and force himself on his employees.” She was uncomfortable, but still she had to talk.

“Oh! But he hasn’t forced himself on you, so why leave?” The woman asked again. Ellie was so angry, she felt like standing up and slapping her, but she really needed the job.

She was about to answer her before the second woman in the room said, “I think that would be all, Ms. Ellie. Expect an email from us in the next three working days.” The woman knew that she was always like that, always trying to put interviewers in tight corners.

Thank you, ma’am.” She said, bowing her head slightly before leaving the room.
