Chapter 2

Over the next three days, the Alpha was the perfect helper, satisfying Alanna’s sexual desires, giving her baths, and making sure she ate. Alanna lost track of time and space at times; other times, she passed out after an orgasm.

On the fourth day, Alanna woke up feeling that strong arm around her waist. Her heat was finally fading away, but now she could analyze her helper. He was everything that was in the description and more: handsome, well-endowed, and hot. My, how hot he was!

Alanna ran her fingers over his abdominal muscles, and scenes from her heat appeared in her mind. Oh, how good that Alpha was in bed! She was sore, but that was to be expected after almost three years alone.

The Alpha was fast asleep.

Alanna got up from the bed, took a shower, changed her clothes, and left a note by the bedside with just “Thank you!”

***

When the Alpha woke up, he looked for the Omega in bed and found himself alone.

“She didn’t even say goodbye!” The Alpha felt disappointed. He didn’t even know the name of the Omega he had spent the last three days with!

***

Upon arriving at the hotel’s reception, Alanna settled her bill and headed straight home. On the way back, she called Vanessa, who answered in astonishment.

“Already? What about the Alpha? What about the heat? Was he good in bed? Was his penis big???”

Alanna laughed and replied, “Yes. I left him sleeping at the hotel! It’s over!” Unfortunately, she thought.

“How could you leave the Alpha sleeping alone???”

“The arrangement was only for the heat. If the heat is over, there’s no reason for me to get involved with him! I rushed out of there.”

“Did you at least get his name?”

“No.”

“You’re impossible!!!”

“I’m going home to rest. I’ll be back at work early tomorrow. We can have pizza and beer, and I’ll tell you all the juicy details.”

“Okay, tomorrow then.”

***

Upon exiting the elevator, she found Charlotte waiting for her.

“Good morning, Ms. Alanna! Your schedule for today: At 9:00 a.m., a meeting with Mr. Abravanel (owner of a Brazilian TV network). At 11:00 a.m., lunch with Mr. Taylor. And at 2:00 p.m., a meeting with the head of the Mogi company’s team regarding the merger.”

“Damn, weren’t they supposed to arrive in two days?”

“Yes, ma’am, but it seems that the head of the team has been in London for over a week studying the entire process.”

“Damn, damn, damn. I’m not prepared for him! Cancel the meeting with Mr. Abravanel, schedule a dinner. Tell Taylor that there was an unexpected situation, explain about the merger, and have everyone from the team sent to the meeting room. Tell Vanessa that there won’t be pizza today.”

“Ma’am, one last thing.”

“What did I forget now, Charlotte?”

“Well… How was it with the helper?”

Alanna slammed the door in Charlotte’s face, and Charlotte left with a little smile on her lips.

***

Alanna reviewed every detail of the merger. Any misstep could jeopardize the jobs of hundreds of employees. It was 1:50 p.m. when her stomach growled.

“Ms. Alanna, Mr. Styles is already in the building.”

“Damn! Put him in my office, give me two minutes, and bring me something to eat.”

Alanna reviewed the paperwork, and in one gulp, she drank the juice Charlotte had brought. She left the meeting room and headed for her office. Upon entering, she came face to face with a well-dressed tall brunet admiring the view.

“Hello! Pleasure to meet you. I’m Alanna Tomlinson, a lawyer from Forget. I’ll be overseeing the merger process.”

Without looking at the Alpha’s face, she said: “Would you like some water? Coff…”

The Alpha turned around. Alanna had a small stroke when she recognized her Alpha helper.

“What are you doing here?”

Matheus smiled at the petite woman’s surprise.

“Pleasure! I’m Matheus Styles, a lawyer for the Mogi companies. It was truly a pleasure to meet you.”

Alanna couldn’t think straight. Automatically, scenes from her heat came to her mind. Her Alpha helper was right there in front of her!

“So, you work here?! London is becoming even more interesting by the second,” Matheus said, smiling.

Alanna was frozen! Out of all the lawyers in the world, why HIM? Alanna looked up to the sky and said, “You’ve got to be kidding me! Damn, damn, damn!”

“This really isn’t the reaction I was hoping for when I saw you again. I thought I had been a good helper.” Matheus took three steps toward Alanna and pressed her against the wall. “Your scent is still on me, you know?”

“No, and I don’t care,” Alanna retorted. “It’s like I’m in a reality show or a really bad cliché plot!”

“I can’t help but agree with you. But I won’t deny that I loved this surprise. We could have dinner,” Matheus said as he pulled Alanna closer. “You could show me around London. I need a guide!” Matheus laughed.

“Look, I want to make it clear: it was just sex!”

“I don’t want anything else from you!”

“You don’t understand! It was just sex!”

“Thank goodness your sex is better than your semantics.”

“Are you here to work or to check how I use words?”

Matheus laughed. “Well, we weren’t expecting your team today; we thought they would arrive in two days… we’re quite busy…”

“I’ve also been very busy these past few days.”

“I know.”

“Why did you leave without saying goodbye?”

“My heat passed, and I didn’t feel the need to…”

“I think I deserve an apology… A dinner as an apology!” Matheus got closer to Alanna, placed his hands on her hips, and their legs interlocked.

Charlotte walked into the room and was completely shocked. She never imagined that one day she would catch her boss in this situation.

“Oh, I’m sorry… I interrupted…”

“What do you need, Charlotte?”

“The team is waiting for you in the meeting room.”

“Thank you, Charlotte. We’re on our way.” Alanna pushed Matheus away and said, “I want to make it very clear that this won’t happen… Never!”

“Why not?”

“I deeply appreciate your ‘help,’ and I’m sorry for leaving. This is my work environment, and I don’t have the patience or time for any kind of relationship.”

“Okay, I can assert that your body says otherwise!”

“Ugh.” Alanna opened the door and said to Charlotte, “Accompany Mr. Styles to the meeting room. Provide him with any financial data about the company that he needs. Bring me coffee and two pain relievers, please. Sir, please follow my secretary; she’ll take you to the team.”

As Matheus left the room, he smiled. “Aren’t you coming?”

“I need to make some phone calls. I’ll be there shortly.”

Alanna closed the door and called Vanessa.

“Hey, so are you able to walk yet?”

“Vanessa.”

“I’m still waiting for the juicy details.”

“Vanessa… The Alpha is here!”

“Huh?”

“He’s here!”

“What Alpha, my goodness? If he’s hot, send him up to my floor!”

“What Alpha?! The Helper Alpha!”

“What? Oh my God, I have to see this!”

“No… Wait… don’t come!”
