My Alpha's mate, Shivani Sharma [romantic novels to read txt] 📗

taken over the company of my father, but I guess not all of us were born with the silver spoon in our mouth right?” he asks and chuckles at himself.

“After your graduation, some of you will take over your father’s company, some of you will go for your higher studies, some of you start your own business, and some of you join the other companies, I only wanted to say one thing to you, do whatever you want to do but do it with passion and only do it if you really want to do it because, if you do it because your parents or relatives force you to do it, the thing you do will feel like a burden to you but if you are doing it because you really want to do it you will feel yourself enjoying your work instead of feeling it like a burden, and in the last but not the least, before you make any decision about your career go through all the pros and cons of the thing you want to do and also do full research on it, this way you will never regret your decisions, that’s all, thank you,” he said and walks back to his seat while all of us, applaused for him including me.

“Thank you for your wonderful speech, Mr. Mcknight now, lets began distribution of the certificates, Addison Walker,” principle said and start calling the names.

“Now I will call one of my favorite student, who just not only did top in every year of her college but also have got a respectful place in one of the prestigious company in new york, Elena Dawson, please come to the stage,” the principal call my name and I walk to the stage with a huge grin on my face making sure I didn’t fall down from the stairs and make fun of myself in front of lots of people.

“Would you like to say something to your friends, Miss. Dawson?” the principal asks me.

“Sure,” I said to him and he stands aside so that I can stand in front of the mike.

“First of all, I would like to congratulate all my friends and like to thanks my parents, and all the teachers of the college to support me, I know I can be a handful sometimes,” I said and chuckle lightly and others laugh with me.

“And I would also like to thank Mr. Mcknight for giving me a chance to work with him again, and Mr. Mcknight I agree with you because if we follow our dream and do what we want we will enjoy our and able to fulfill it with all we have, it didn't matter the amount of income we earn from it, in the last when we were in the hospital taking ou last breath, we would feel happy and fulfilled that we enjoyed our life to our best and if you don't do what we want and do what others want us to do, then we will regret the thin we had done in our life thinking what would be the things in life would have like if we have just followed our dreams when we were taking our last breath. It's just what I think we should do, but in the last, it was your choice to make, so enjoy and thank you all once again,” with that said I take my degree from Mr.mcKnight, shake his hand and get back to my seat.

After the distribution of degree was finished, I walk towards my family, they congratulated me and engulf me in a tight hug. After meeting their parents my friend cond congratulate me and hug me when Mr. Mcknight come and joined us.

"Mr. McKnight, meet my parents, Raven and Hunter Dawson, and my brother Brandon, not to forgot Alice and Mia my friend, everyone he is my boss Xavier Mcknight," I introduce him to everyone. We talk for some time than Mr. Mcknight says goodbye to us and in the staff members.

After saying goodbye to my friend I go with my parents and brother to my favorite restaurant to celebrate my graduation day with them. The next day, I go shopping with my broker and send the whole day with my family.

After that, I packed my bags, said goodbye to my family and parents, and drove to the airport with my brother. The plane was boarding and I felt butterflies in my stomach, I don’t know why but I just can’t wait to start my new life. I want to start with a clean slate.

As soon as I touch the ground of NY I’m off looking for a cap, I’m staying in an apartment that is paid for the first 6 months by the company, after six months I have to pay for it myself.

The cap pulls up to the apartment and it’s fucking beautiful I can already see that I’m going to love it, and I can’t wait to get settled in but right now I’m too tired to take care off it and I just go towards the bedroom, I pull on some pj’s and as soon as my head hits the pillow I’m off to dreamland.

Chapter - 25

(Elena P.O.V)

Generally, I am not a morning person, but this time I wake up early in the morning since I fall asleep early due to tiredness. My job does not start until Monday, so I have three days to settle down and enjoy my weekend. I decided to first unpack my things and get ready for the day. After taking a long hot shower I decided to have some breakfast since I was starving and then explore the apartment. I walk in the kitchen, which was attached to the living room with the small wall separating them. It was a small modern kitchen with light blue walls, and all the appliances a person would need, like a blender, food processor, Mixer, Refrigerator, Oven, Microwave, Stove, etc.

As I look inside the fridge to see something available to make breakfast I heard my phone ring and pick it up without looking at the collar I.D.

“Hello,” I said on the phone.

“Are you in New York?” I heard Oliver asks me. I check the phone to see he was calling me from Stella’s number.

" Oliver?” I say in disbelieve.

“Elena answer me, Are. You. In. New. York” he says articulating every word very good to emphasize the question.

I look at the phone in my hand, I can’t believe it how does he know I’m in New York.

“FOR GOD SAKE ELENA PLEASE ANSWER ME,” Oliver hollered on the phone, and I without thinking anything hangs upon him.

I stare at the phone in my hand for a few minutes, I just can’t believe it how in heavens name does he know where I am. I haven’t even been in New York for a whole day, this is ridiculous. I take a few deep breaths to cool myself down.

When my heartbeat becomes normal, I open the fridge again and prepare breakfast for myself. After eating breakfast I explore my apartment it was 2KBH spacious apartment, bedrooms, and living room is decorated with cream color, and the kitchen was decorated with light blue color.

After exploring my apartment I decided to check on groceries, and find that I am running out of groceries and begs, so I made a list of all things I need to buy and decided to go to a nearby grocery store to purchase it.

While coming back home I decided to have lunch outside at a nearby cafe, since it already 12:30. After lunch, I come back home and arrange the thing to their respective place and take a nap. I wake up at 3:30 pm and decided to go outside and enjoy myself. I thought of calling Stella and have a girl’s night and spend the weekend with her but change my mind thinking if I call her to come to my apartment then Oliver will also come with her.

I spend the day roaming around the city and have dinner in my favorite restaurant here and goes to sleep. I spend my whole weekend at home reading books and watching Netflix.

The next day I get up early in the morning, get ready for the office, eat my breakfast. After breakfast, I grab all the things I need for work and walk out of my new apartment.

I get into a cab and give him the address he drives there without needing any more directions so I’m guessing he knows where it is. We stop and pull up next towards a huge building, my new workplace, I give the driver the money, and get out of the cab.

(Oliver’s P.O.V)

I wake up with the same feeling I had when Elena decided to show up on my birthday, I feel giddy, like an immature child. Wait didn’t Elena mention something about being hired into the company she had her internship, a few months ago?

I jump out of my bed and grab the phone of my nightstand. I see it’s about 7 in the morning. I quickly scroll through my contacts until I land on Elena, then I remember that she has blocked my number. I walk out of my bed and walk up to Mansons' room and knock on the door. Stella opens the door after a few minutes looking sleepy.

“I am sorry to disturb you so early in the morning, but can I borrow your phone for a minute, Stella?” I ask her.

“Of course, Alpha, but can I asks why?” she asks me.

“I want to call her?” I said to her.

“Call who?” she asks me and I internally palm my face.

“Elena,” I said to her and she gives me her phone.

I quickly ring her. She picks up on the second ring. She should be sleeping right now because it would be 4 am since there is a 3-hour time difference between L.A and N.Y.

“Hello, Met Elena” I hear her say, she still has a husky morning voice it turns me on immediately. But it has to be around one in the midday right now how the fucking hell does she still have a morning voice. Maybe she’s really in NY. That makes me feel butterflies in my stomach.
“Are you in NY?” I ask without even introducing myself“Oliver?” She breathes into the phone, she sounds shocked to hear my voice.

“Elena answer me, Are. You. In. New. York" I bellow, my patience is wearing thin with Elena. She doesn’t answer me.

"FOR GOD SAKE ELENA PLEASE ANSWER ME,” I yell into the phone, I have no patience now anymore, I want to yell again in the phone but instead, I’m confronted with the beeping sound telling me that she hung up. SHE FUCKING HUNG UP ON ME. I thanked Stella while giving her phone back to her and run to Recees room, and pound on his door.

I saw my other friends poke there head around the doors of there bedroom. I just furiously continue to pound on the door, I’m close to just breaking the door.“I’m coming to hold your fucking horses.” I hear Rec say from the other side of the door. He opens the door just as I’m about to knock again, which results in me almost hitting
