Laura Grace/LG/Gracie POV

I reread the screen for the third time willing the words to change. When I read it for the fourth, I gave in, putting my head on the desk and ever so slightly banging it once, twice, three times, only to be met by a banging on the wall to my left. Lifting my head up I hear her, "That won't change the situation!"

"I know!" Staring at the screen again. "But it makes me feel better, for some reason!" I shout back at her knowing she would have heard it regardless.

"Why do you do this every time we get one of these e-mails? We talked about this. We knew a month into this it was going to eventually going to happen." Lizzie says from my office door. She stands leaning against the door jam in her Black leggings, with matching sports bra acting like she isn't the Goddess of all Alphas. He long blonde hair in a high ponytail, her blue-gray eyes pinned on me.

"I know, I know." I sat behind my desk with the first of three monitors to my right. They wrap the right side of my L-Shaped desk, starting at the screen with my hands now stippled in front of my mouth. I was getting in my "zone". Dressed in my favorite black power suite with my blood red silk tank with matching red stilettos. My dark red hair cascading down my back in waves, make-up on point with a red lip. I was set to walk in the meeting I had in a few hours in the city, until I read the e-mail. I wasn't stressed about the meeting, hell all I had to do was show up and I knew it was going to go my way, we only were finalizing one last piece of the deal. It was for the last piece of my plan, I only needed one more warehouse location for our business to be totally independent. Once I finished today, I could take time off, after working non-stop for a year to get what we needed. Lizzie knew it.

"Don't let it bother you Gracie. You said 6 months ago it was going to happen." Lizzie was the only one to call me Gracie besides my mother, everyone else called me LG. She walked into my office that was a stark contrast to her bright, floral and calming space. Mine was all business. People would look in mine thinking I was the Alpha and she was the Beta, but no. I had the Grey walls with my degrees hanging on the walls. Large L-shaped desk with a 42-inch TV on the wall with business news playing on mute. Lizzie tried to make it more feminine, with the bookcase to my left she would bring in kick-knacks and flowers. It was a game to her, see how long it would take for me to notice, usually all of about 5 seconds and out the door it flew. If it broke the better, it felt.

"I know what I said, but I didn't really think it would happen! Now we have to open the West Wing in a week! I was planning on a surprise spa day for us on Friday! Now we have to prepare for a King!" I said looking at my now blown schedule.

"Do you think HE will be with him?" Lizzie says almost meekly with her arms now crossed in front of her.

I looked up at her in shock, I hadn't even thought of what this really meant for her. "He is one of his Betas now. He might be." I said as I stood up and went to her crouching in front of her. "We will get thru it, just like we did a year ago. You know I will not leave your side, nor will Sarah or Charlie! One of us will always be there with you, besides you are not the same woman you were a year ago. Remember we said it a year ago, we may be rejected, but we are never alone. You are my Soul." I looked up at her from my crouched position smiling.

I remember that day like it was just yesterday – Flashback – 1 year ago

I slowly opened the door to her room, the flowers assaulted me as soon as I stepped in, but it was her sent, roses and vanilla. She was still under the mound of covers, I ran and jumped on top of her! "Happy 18th Birthday!" I screamed as she screamed and started swinging like I was an attacker. I was so used to her moves I knew ducked and dodged easily.
