THE CEO ALPHA KING (-Shocked-)
Writer’s P O V
Serena stood with her lips pursed forward, waiting for her sister to finish speaking.
“I thought you would have died from overworking yourself. It turns out that you are still alive. Let’s see how long that would last,” Kate continued as she moved closer to her. “Poor thing, You’ve come to show me that you are still alive, but guess what? I’m not happy about it, you bitch,” she whispered into Serena’s ears.
“I haven’t forgotten the fact that you killed my mother tho. I had plans to kill you too. Thanks for revealing yourself to me,” Kate whispered again into her ear before taking two steps away from her.
Serena did nothing but listen to her half-sister blurting out empty threats.
“Lucy, call the securities to come to take her out of this building immediately,” Kate shouted out the order.
Serena chuckled out at the order.
“The securities? Oh yes, the securities should be brought here. My sister here needs to be taken to the asylum.” Serena chuckled out.
“What?” Kate frowned at her.
“Lucy, go on and call the securities up here!” Kate ordered. She was mad that Serena, whom she thought must be sick or crazy somewhere, was the one standing in front of her, looking all glammed up like a queen.
“It’s a pity. You haven’t changed one bit. I was contemplating forgiving you. I thought and hoped hard for you to have changed. But I guess I’m all wrong,” Serena said with a sorry look.
She looked down at the file madam Lucas had handed her and opened it.
“It says here that I’ll be the new manager. Which means I have the power to fire anyone of you here who misbehaves or doesn’t perform her duty well,” Serena announced.
Another surprising gasp left the crowd’s lips.
“What? That’s impossible,” Kate screamed.
“Girls, don’t tell me you believe her. She’s a lair. The management couldn’t have made someone like her a worker here, talk more of a manager,” Kate said and smirked devilishly. “Don’t forget that she is still my little sister who didn’t attend college,” she added.
“Are you saying that the CEO did a bad job employing her as the manager?” They all heard a stern voice asked.
Serena was forced to turn to see who it was, and of course, it was Beta Adam.
Another round of gasps left the lady’s lips.
“Adam,” Serena whispered.
Beta Adam started approaching them and stopped in front of Serena
“What’s all these? Why are you exchanging words with your boss? Do you want to get fired? If she does fire you, I won’t object to that,” Beta Adam gawked at Kate asking.
Kate opened her mouth, but no word came out. She was in total shock and disbelief. She had to close her eyes and open them to confirm that she wasn’t actually dreaming.
Moments later, Lucy arrived with the securities.
“Who is the person we are to take?” They asked Lucy, but she got confused seeing Beta Adam standing beside Serena, and it looked like he was on her side.
She turned to look at Kate for answers.
“Who called the securities?” Beta Adam asked.
“Oh, I did.” Serena was quick to answer.
“I need a moment with my sister outside. It’s been months since we saw last met, so I thought you guys would help escort her out of the building. I need to speak with her in private,” Serena answered and said.
Again, her attitude shocked Kate.
How is she, Serena? She kept asking herself that question.
The securities turned to Beta Adam, equally confused at the whole thing.
“What are you waiting for? Do as she says. She’s the new manager of the company,” Beta Adam informed them.
The securities went ahead and grabbed Kate.
“Wait, you’re making a mistake. Hold on!” Kate shouted out to the securities, but they held her and started pulling her to the elevator.
“Be quick. Don’t forget I’ll be waiting at the King’s office.” Beta Adam said to Serena before leaving.
Serena turned and followed the securities down. She asked them to take Kate to the garage, and they took her there.
Serena then excused the securities, leaving her alone with her half-sister, Kate.
Immediately they left. Kate glared dangerously at Serena.
“Who the hell do you think you are? What do you think you’re doing?” Kate shouted the question.
“Calm down, big sis. Calm down. We are just starting. You see, I’ve really missed you. Haven’t you missed me, you disgusting slut?” Serena smirked. “I bet you haven’t, you self-centered bitch. It doesn’t matter, though, because guess what, I’ve missed your damn attitude,” Serena teased.
Kate raised her hand high in an attempt to hit Serena but, she was quick to catch her sister’s hand. All those time spent training in New York was not just for show-off. She twisted both of her hands till Kate couldn’t handle the pain anymore.
“Kneel! Kneel, you bitch! Kneel and apologize for everything you’ve done to me, and I might just forgive you.” Serena demanded.
“I won’t… I will never…” Kate paused when she felt her hands twisting to another angle. She felt her bones cracking.
She screamed out and eventually went down on her two knees.
“That’s it. Good girl.” Serena mocked.
She squatted down to become eye level with Kate, who was examining her arms.
“It hurts. Remember when you did that to me, when I was 15 or 16 years old. You did it to me at the back of my school building and took all the money I had for lunch. Do you remember?” Serena asked, recalling the old days.
Kate kept looking at her arms, totally ignoring her.
Serena grabbed her hair, making sure to hurt her scalp. She pulled her hair backward with all her might, and Kate couldn’t help but cry out in pain.
“When I speak to you from now on, you answer me with respect. I can’t believe I went through hell in your hands and paid all your maltreatments with love. I kept on loving you still. I must have been so so stupid, Kate! You don’t deserve to be loved!” Serena screamed out at her.
“Hey! What’s going on here?!” The duo heard a voice shoot.
Serena let go of her sister’s hair and turned around.
“Isaac?” She mumbled. Isaac, with a confused look on, began approaching them both.
“What’s going on?” Isaac asked.
Kate stood up on her feet and burst out in tears.
“Baby, she hurt me. She did, look at me,” Kate cried but shockingly to Kate, Isaac ignored her and turned to Serena.
“Are you hurt?” He asked her.
“No,” Serena shook her head in response.
“What are you doing here?” She asked him.
“I told you I was going to meet up with you here. You forgot that?” Isaac replied.
“Wait, what’s going on? Why are you talking to that bitch?” Kate frowned at Isaac.
Isaac and Serena turned to focus on Kate. Serena was also confused as to how Kate was speaking to Isaac so freely.
She even called him baby.
“Isaac?” Serena called, asking for an explanation.
“Can you give us a minute? I need to have a word with her. I’ll be back to you, I promise,” Isaac requested.
Serena looked at him keenly to make sure that everything was okay but Isaac quickly mind-link and told her that she shouldn’t worry about him.
*But I have a lot of things to say to her. I have a lot of things I need to hear from her too. She hasn’t apologized to me for all she’s done. I need an apology from her.* Serena’s mind linked Isaac back.
*S, don’t worry. You have all the time in the world for that. If you really want to hear an apology from her, I promise you that she will apologize. I’ll make her apologizes to you, so just give us a second. Please.* Isaac requested.
*Okay.* Serena answered and shook her head.
“I’ll be waiting for you at the receptionist stand then,” Serena said to Isaac. She gave Kate one long, hard stare and left.
“Baby, what’s happening? What’s going on?” Kate asked. Tears were welling up her eyes. Since she was madly in love with him, she couldn’t believe Issac spoke so softly with the person she hated most in the world.
Kate grabbed Isaac’s hands, but Isaac freed himself from her.
“What did you say to her that made her want to pull out your hair? Are you that stupid and brainless? Don’t you have even a little bit of goodness in you? That is your sister, for crying out loud. When will you start seeing her as a human? When?
When will you look at her with love? Why do you always treat her that way? You’ve even made her capable of hurting you. Aren’t you ashamed of your bitchy act?” Isaac scolded.
Kate’s mouth remained open. Shock could be an understatement of what she felt. She felt her heart being pulled out from her chest.
She couldn’t hold back her tears which were now rolling freely from her eyes.
Isaac sighed. “I gave up on avenging her only because I thought you were going to change.”
“What are you… you… saying?” Kate stuttered out the question.
“What do you mean?”
“Serena is also my half-sister. She is the sister I searched for more than 15 years and finally met her. But I found her so broken, and I found out all the things you and your father did to her. I became so mad and wanted to avenge her, but along the line, I couldn’t do it anymore. I… I had thought that you behaved so nicely that you had really changed or you were going to change. I thought the love you had for me was strong enough to change you and make you become a better person, but you just proved me wrong.
How could you not change after everything? Do you have a stone for a heart?”
Kate’s lips trembled as she tried to talk. She was dumbfounded.
Is he Serena’s half-brother? What’s going? She kept thinking. Her mind was all over the place.
Does he want to avenge her? So… he’s with me just to avenge her? And he could have done that but stopped only because he thought I’d stop hating her? Too many questions.
She stared at him in shock. Her ears must be deceiving her. She thought.
No, I must be dreaming. Kate felt her world closing in on her.
“Apologize to her. Apologize and ask her for forgiveness. If you don’t, then I’ll be the one pulling your hair next time.” Isaac warned before turning to back her.
“Go home from here. Don’t come into the company for today.” Isaac ordered before leaving her.
He walked into the building freely only because one of the securities there was a werewolf. He got to the receptionist’s stand and asked for the whereabouts of Serena.
He was directed to a room by the left. Isaac slowly went in search of his sister.
He got to the room and pushed the door open, immediately he saw Serena standing and backing him.
“Hey,” he called and closed the door.
“How long have you been dating her, Isaac? How long have you been seeing my sister behind my back?” Serena asked without turning to look at him.
“I’m sorry I kept it from you. I didn’t mean it. I only wanted to protect you.” Isaac apologized, walking closer to her.
“You didn’t tell her that I was your sister, right?” Serena asked.
“I just did. I had to. Are you mad?” Isaac couldn’t help but ask. Serena didn’t turn to face him, and that told him that something must be off.
She’s probably mad. That’s why she doesn’t want to look at my face. He thought.
Serena didn’t reply to him. He held her shoulder and turned her to face him only to see the tears in her eyes.
“You are crying?” He asked, taken aback.
