Cam assured her that they would get to the bottom of it when they were in a more private area, but until then, they had to act like they were aware of the changes when they were in front of Diane. A few hours went by, and it was time for them to leave, "I will see you tomorrow, D. Be fine, okay?" Mia said to her sister as she kissed her forehead goodbye. Diane nodded in response as she smiled at Mia and wished them good luck on their new job.
Mia and Cam walked into the restaurant feeling very impressed by what they were seeing. Mia took her phone out and followed the directions that Alexander had sent to her. She slowly led them down a secret flight of stairs and they finally arrived at an open space that had a door at the left. It looked like a parking lot but there were no cars parked in it.
When they got in, they were escorted by a guard who seemed to have been anticipating their arrival and were led to an office. On their way there, they noticed how organised the place was compared to their old job. They looked at the waiters who looked like they had actually attended a school to learn how to be waiters. She looked at some girls who seemed to be dancers like them. They were warming up at a corner doing splits and other really impressive things with their bodies.
"I could never bend like that," Mia muttered as she looked at them. They felt better about the new opportunity, and it was because they had confirmed that it was not false. When they walked in, they were three men inside the office besides the ones that stood at the entrance. Two were at either side of the table and one to their left. Mia spotted Alexander first and another man who had files in front of him, "he must be the lawyer" they thought.
When they got to the table and finally looked at all of the men, their eyes froze. The third man in the room was their professor, the same man that they had seen in the club that night who was with Alexander. How silly were they to think that it was just a coincidence that they sat at the same table that night. "You!" Cam exclaimed before she could control herself. Mia held her arm, signaling to her to not do that. Cam was the most surprised, she continued to look left and right between them, the resemblance was there. Oh no, was he…
"No, he could not be. Because if he was, then the brother he spoke about would be Andre and that would mean that their boss is also a werewolf no, no, that could not be," Cam's mind was racing, trying to place the dots together. "You missed class today," Angelo said, his deep voice breaking the silence that was in the room. Mia, still not knowing about Angelo being the man behind Cam's half story, just thought that they were both surprised to see their teacher like that.
"Yes, we uh," Mia began to stutter. Angelo let out a chuckle, "I was just messing with you. When I am here, I am not your teacher and we will keep that little secret between us. Won't we?" He asked the two girls. It may have seemed like a question, but they knew better than to not see it as it was… a threat. They nodded at him, "words, princess. Or should I say, princesses?" He said. "Yes, sir," Mia said. She looked to Cam who was standing beside her and her lips stubbornly shut.
"Cam," Mia whispered to her friend. "Yes sir," Cam said. She did not want to sabotage her friend's opportunity because of her stubbornness. "What secret exactly are we keeping a secret? The one about being a professor who is part of the mafia? Or the one where we have been fucking ourselves?" Cam thought. "I can tell that you still want more of that," a voice said to her. Her eyes widened as she looked at everyone in the room.
"Had she said her thoughts out loud?" Cam wondered as she looked at Mia. The other people in the room were not staring at her, so that had to mean that she did not accidentally spill. "We want our mate," the voice said again. Of course, it was her wolf. She pushed the feelings aside and took a seat as they were instructed to. "I suppose you are already familiar with each other but we will go over things again. To you, I am Andre Ivanov and over here is my brother and partner," he said as he gestured toward Angelo.
He then turned toward the third man in the room, "and that is Stan. He is going to be the legal counsel and witness over this signing. Take your time, go through the documents and make sure everything I promised is in there. Then, you sign" he said as he pointed at the lawyer, Stan and the documents that sat in front of him. The girls nodded and took the documents from Stan and began to peruse through them. As Mia furrowed her eyebrow in concentration, Alexander continued to stare at her.
He watched every twist and turn of every part of her body. He was studying her, and most of all, he was enchanted by her beauty. His eyes wandered through her body, his gaze not deferring even for a second. "Our mate," his wolf said to him. He felt a sense of pride as he looked at her, with only one thing ruining his prideful thoughts… She was human.
After a few more minutes of silence, with Angelo scrolling on his phone and Alexander watching his mate, the girl finally signed the papers. They shook hands with the lawyer and Angelo, but Alexander kept both hands in his pants pocket and responded with a nod. "Why does he do that?" Mia asked herself as she recalled that he never shook her hand. She dismissed the thought and was led out by a guard who led them back out to the huge showroom that they had passed by.
