CEO'S ROGUE ALPHA

Chapter 45: ALPHA LOBO’S CHESS PIECE

LUCIAN’S POV

I left the construction site, drove to the opposite side of the Due Corporation, and headed to Alpha Lobo’s office. The bodyguards and driver bundled up in one car since I was too angry to let anyone drive me. I felt the need to confront him once and for all. Anisha’s call came as soon as I entered the main highway.

Answering the call from the Jeep Bluetooth speaker, I spoke up " What is it, Anisha?"

"What crazy thing are you about to do, Lucian?" Where are you headed?" Anisha demanded.

"I am going to see Elder Zaya," I lied.

"Lucian, you are lying to me. Knowing your temper and impatience, I bet you are going to confront Lobo," she deduced.

"If you know it well, why are you asking? "I retorted.

"Lucian, don’t you dare do anything reckless? You are newly mated, and there is nothing more dangerous than a mated alpha. If you want to see Conri go mad, go near Alpha Lobo’’

The statement made me slow down my driving and ended up parking the car on the side of the road. I switched off the ignition and leaned on the car seat.

"I will not sit by and watch while they mess with Conri," I growled. " Enough is enough"

"You are walking into a trap. Have you discussed with Conri what you want to do? Being mated requires you to communicate with Conri. But if you dare go to Alpha Lobo alone, you will have made a huge mistake"

"What do you want me to do? "I growled in frustration.

"Turn the car and let us go back to the office. Work on a plan to deal with Alpha Lobo." Anisha advised.

I leaned on the steering wheel and closed my eyes. I willed my anger to cease so that I would be rational. I knew I was being biased since Conri was my mate. Mine. My husband. My newfound happiness.

A tap of the car window. My head snapped and Anisha was standing there. I rolled down the window and disconnected the call.

"Brother, Due Corporation awaits you" She smirked and walked to the passenger side of the car, opened and got in. From the rearview mirror, I spotted Anisha’s car and Tala was at the wheel.

"Don’t worry. I am not headed to Alpha Lobo’s office. Your scolding made me change my mind," I retorted.

"I know. I just want to ride with you, "Anisha laughed loudly.

I felt the tension ease on my shoulders, pressed the ignition button, and got on the highway. We made a turn at the corner junction and headed back to the Due Corporation offices in a convoy of three cars.

Zeeb was already impatiently waiting for us at the reception of the CEO’s offices. He took one look at me and opened my office door, allowing Tala, Anisha and I to walk in. Upon entry, he closed the door and demanded, " What the fuck happened? And don’t tell me anything. I can see the worried look on all your faces. "

We sat down, and it took Tala ten minutes to explain to a cursing Zeeb.

"Thank God we did not take you along," Anisha snapped. She stood up and beckoned Tala. " Work awaits us. Let us go"

"Yes, boss," Tala spoke up hurriedly, and they left my office.

"Were you seriously headed to Alpha Lobos’s office ?" Zeeb demanded once the door of the office closed.

"Yes," I nodded.

"Are you insane?" Zeeb cursed.

"Lobo Aria is pushing my buttons," I seethed. "I am tired of sitting on the fence"

"You can’t be this reckless. You need to consider Conri, too," Zeeb advised.

"I know," I whispered in resignation.

"I will leave you with your thoughts, Lucian. " Zeeb stated.

"Wait. Please send a security team to the site. Have them install sensors, security cameras, and access control. Get a new guarding company to guard the site day and night. Get the contacts of the foreman and project manager from Anisha.

Zeeb nodded, and the image of Everest’s interest in Anisha flashed across my face.

"And "I spoke up just as his hand reached the door.

He turned around in waiting. " Today I realized that there are many who admire Anisha. You need to claim your mate as soon as possible. "

Zeeb looked like the wind had been knocked out of him.

"What did you say? "

"You heard me," I emphasized.

He shook his head in disbelief and left the office. Two hours later, I had caught up with work and Isla delivered a lunch box.

"What is this?" I asked Isla with piqued interest.

"CEO Lucian, Conri asked me to deliver buy this and deliver it to you"

"He did,? "I asked in a surprised tone.

She nodded and said, "He called the office and asked for me. He said you needed to replenish your body and keep fit. "She blushed at the end of the sentence.

"Thank you, "I dismissed her before she said any more embarrassing words.

I took the lunchbox and unwrapped it. It was my favorite wild game meat and a salad. It smelled so good that I picked up the phone and called him. He answered, and I dove right into the conversation. " Husband, I love the little surprise. "

"Mhh, you need to have all your meals lil pup," Conri drawled.

"I have a feeling you just wanted to cheer me up," I chuckled.

"That too" Conri’s one-word answer on the phone was back.

"Is everything okay at the site ?"

"Yes."

"I miss you, "I added.

He remained silent, and I heard the intake of his breath, then the sound of feet on the grovel, and knew he was walking away from the office to have a private conversation with me. I leaned back in the chair and waited.

"Lil pup, why did I sense the worry of Freki earlier?" He demanded.

His question caught me off guard. " Sigh, I almost made a terrible mistake"

"Speak," He demanded.

"When I left the site, I wanted to go to Alpha Lobo and confront him. "Conri’s growl came through the phone and the bite on my thigh vibrated.

"Anisha stopped me and I went back to the office," I explained to myself. He was silent on the phone and I added, "I am sorry. I will not act recklessly anymore and promise to discuss any displeasure or action with Alpha Lobo with you beforehand. "

"Fine:" I heard him sigh.

"How did you know Freki was worried?" asked.

"The connection of the bite mark. Our wolves are now connected. "
