Chapter 004.

Logan's POV

"Meredith, stop that." I know what this naughty friend of mine is about to do.

"Come on, Logan, I am not doing anything, I am only admiring the angel in front of me," he smirked, winking at me, I shook my head, this naughty man. "Sorry young lady, if the man thinks I am scaring you or did I scare you?" He stretched out his hand, still having that playful grin beside his lips. The young lady shakes her head, I don't know what is wrong but she seems to want to convince herself of something. "my name is Meredith Ramsey..." He said, Akira took his hand into hers.

"Akira Ross, the new assistant of Mr. Wolfie." He smiled and then nodded to her, he wanted to say something else, but my voice interrupted him.

"You can leave, resume tomorrow," I said, she bowed before Meredith stepped aside for Akira to leave. He turned his gaze to me and smirked

"Hey..." I rolled my finger at him, preventing him from picking up those lost words.

"It's Logan here..."

"But she just called you Wolfie instead of Logan or Stark..." I smirked, if only she knew the meaning behind that name, she would run for her life and never look back, I smirked, as I narrowed my eyes.

"It's her choice..."

"And a perfect choice for you?" I look at him lost, I don't understand his choice of words.

"Stop talking nonsense, she is seventeen going to..."

"And you are nineteen going on twenty?"

"Stop talking about that figure, the mere reminder of that figure called twenty makes me want to puke." My nostrils flared, as my jaw muscles clenched, remembering I had just a year to live.

"Stop that, you are going to grow old fast and that handsome face might disappear and leave you with that of a grumpy old man." I frown instead of laughing not that I do not find it funny but I don't think I know how to smile or laugh, all my life I have been groomed for the post of an Alpha, and I didn't even know what the word childhood memories mean. I was thrown into responsibility when I was supposed to be playing around, I have a Pack to perform my duty to and a company to run all at the age of nineteen and then all this will end at twenty. What a stupid life! I frown more, as I remember the words of my Mother, Luna Louisa. I do not have time.

"Hey, what's up with the grumpiness, Grandpa?" He teased me one more time.

"Meredith, stop did you hit your head on something?" He smiled and shook his head.

"So this one, you just employed, when are you going to fire her?"

"Geez! Meredith, what will I do with you?" I said in frustration.

"Nothing, I am that buddy that will always tell you the truth, so go on and tell me, when are you going to fire her?" I stared at him and then he winked.

"I don't know, and for the record, I don't enjoy firing my assistant, they get fired..."

"Just because they stare at you or make passes at you. Gosh, what did you expect? Gosh it's another loss and you know the HR had to pay for those penalties, it's against the labor code..." I look at him without emotions. "Do you have to blame them? The hottest single billionaire in town, he is not just single but he is super handsome and rich. You are the most eligible bachelor in town."

"How come I don't see it that way?"

"You don't or you don't want to admit." This time, I move my gaze to him and focus on him, the look on my face means one thing, I do not want to keep talking about that, "Why didn't you show up at the bar? Your cousin, Riley, and Casper, the young Alpha of Forest Moon Pack, were there, we waited for you..."

"Something came up and I couldn't get there," I said coldly.

"I called and you didn't pick up, I was worried for you, especially when I heard that a beast was roaming the city..."

"And you think I was the one?"

"Are you?" He asked.

"I couldn't be careless to want to risk my identity just to save a girl."

"Was that what the beast did? Who is..."

"Why are you here?" I asked getting back to the files.

"Logan, your mother called, to remind you of the lunch date, she said you shouldn't miss it or else, she is going to storm your office again as she did this morning..." Meredith relayed.

My face dimmed, I wasn't stupid, she said that before and I remember, even though I had told her a thousand times to stop sending me females. Meredith grinned seeing the sudden uneasiness on my face. "Come on Logan, I am just some messenger," Meredith whispered as I glared at him. Meredith and I had grown up. We practically know each other and there is no secret between us. He is my beta, while I am the Alpha of the Gold Moon Pack, "Bro relax, you should try and understand Luna, she is only trying to fix everything, she is scared that she might lose you and leave the Pack in the hands of your cousins is not a good idea." I closed my laptop and then raised my head to look at him.

"I need you to do a background check on Akira Ross." He looks at me confused with his brow furrowed and his pollex pointing at the door, to indicate that I was referring to my new assistant. I have never done that on all of those females I fired in these two weeks. "Yes, and you should inform the HR department to have all the women briefed about this stuff, to avoid further embarrassment..."

"Are you kidding me? What are we going to tell them? I guess it's going to be like this; every female aspiring to get a job at Wolfie Stark Enterprises should make sure not to stare at the boss, have feelings for him, and not make the mistake of confessing her feelings for the boss, if not she will be fired. Seriously Logan?"

"Why not? Is there anything wrong with that? If a penalty is attached to firing an employee without due notice is included in the employers and employee clause then that should also fit in." My voice was firm but that straight answer was enough to make Meredith keep quiet. I grabbed my mask and covered my face, "do you need a mask?" Meredith asked, I tilted my head to him.

"I do, I don't want reporters stalking me and asking questions, I get bored of answering."

"But you didn't close your face when you were having an interview with that lady?"

"Fuck me..." I cursed, I didn't realize that I didn't close my face, those females I had fired, didn't get to see my face, just my eyes had driven them nuts but this woman, she saw my face but she didn't jump at me or lost concentration.

"Why did you reveal your face to her?"

"Meredith, stop asking dumb questions..."

He didn't say anything before we walked out of my office and the corridor, the elevator brought us to the garage, and I stretched my hand to him, and he stared at me. "The keys..."

"Fuck Al..."

"Stopped! That name is forbidden here, it's not difficult for you to call me Logan or Stark..."

He interrupted me, "What about Wolfie?" I glared at him before he dropped the car keys on my palm. I got into the car and turned my ignition, my phone rang almost at the same time, I arrived at the venue that Meredith told me.

"What now?'' I growl as I pull my car door.

"Hope you are going to meet the female? Luna Luisa is going to kill..."

"You have nothing to worry about, I will be there, it's obvious where your loyalty lies," I said coldly.

"It's not like that, you know that you have been avoiding all those..."

"It's fine, you don't have..." My words were cut short when a female ran out from nowhere and jumped on me, and her arms swung up as she circled her hand around my neck.

"Boyfriend, what takes you so long?"
