Chapter 1
She hurriedly gulped her omelette as she looked at her phone to check the time "Fuck, I'm late" She said with a frown on her face. She had an audition with one of the biggest companies in New York and the first impression she was given was late coming, they would think she is terrible.
This was the first time she was auditioning for a lead role and she hoped to get it.
Her step-mum walked down the stairs alongside her step-sister, who looked at her with anger in her eyes "Why are you up so early Guan? Everyone in the house knows what a sleepy head you are, very unhealthy for an omega" Her step sister said with a smirk on her face.
"Let me give you a piece of advice Guan, don't go for the audition, we all know you won't get the role anyway. No one wants to associate with a weak wolf like yourself, you're a disgrace to this family" Her sister added laughing hilariously as her stepmom joined too.
She wasn't surprised she had become used to insults from her step-sister and so-called mother. Her mother died five years back when her pack was raided by vampires and she thought her father would stand by her but instead, he married another wife and together they made life a living hell for her.
Though her family was one of the richest in the pack, no one even knew that she was from that family. They all assumed that she coincidentally had the same surname as the richest and most powerful family in the dackhood pack; it was like she was invisible or probably visible but unnoticed.
Her sister has always been in the spotlight pretending to be her father's real daughter. She's even the Vice President of her father's company and everyone knows that on the company's 50th anniversary, she would be made chairman of the company. A position that was meant to be her's as the first and legitimate daughter of her father but as usual, she was left behind the scene.
She ate the last piece of omelette and stood up, the last thing she wanted was to exchange words with her step-sister, but she was already too late for that. She picked up her bag and walked hurriedly out of the living room.
She knew if she settled for a public box, she would probably get there late so she dipped her hands into her bag and brought out her phone, she dialled a number and a few seconds later it was answered
"I know your request, I'm outside your house come immediately you are late," Her best friend said, making her smile, she ran out of the compound and sighted his car she smiled and headed towards the car.
"How did you know?" She inquired nonchalantly
"I have my way around," He said with a smile and zoomed off, having a permanent smile on his face.
She stood in front of the biggest entertainment company in North America as her mouth opened in astonishment “Such beauty” She said to herself with a smile.
She walked hurriedly into the building and headed straight for the hall where she met a lot of people lined up and at the same time auditioning. She knew she was pretty late, which was a wrong signal to the judges.
“Hey, you must be Guan, the next person on stage,” A young lady in her mid-20s said, walking towards her with a smile. Guan could tell that she was a Beta from the way she looks.
“Yes, I am, how did you know that?” She asked with a surprised look on her face as her heartbeat increased.
“Well, your name was called as a reminder that you're up next,” She said with a smile on her face.
“Rumours have it that Zack Josh would come to inspect the audition and everyone is anticipating it but I'm dreading it because his standard for acting is so high that I might not stand a chance in front of him,” She said with a frown on her face.
Guan looked at her with surprise in her eyes. Not only was she the next in line to show how good she was, but Zack Josh would also be coming to inspect the audition. Everyone who knows Zack knows how ruthless he is in work and in judging. Though the directors never said anything about him coming but they probably expected him anyways.
Zack is the most powerful and ruthless Alpha in the whole of North America and beyond. He is the leader of Roodwood park, the richest and most powerful pack in America. Apart from Zack being an Alpha, he is also a top investor in JK ENTERTAINMENT which means that the directors would take anything he says because they won't want to lose the person who makes the most investment in the company.
“Miss Guan Fredrick you're up next,” One of the judges said, interrupting her from her thoughts.
She walked slowly to the stage as all eyes were on her and she could hear whispers from the left, right, and centre and it was clear that the side talk was all about her. She was not surprised at all, she was the only one auditioning for a lead role because everyone knew that in JK ENTERTAINMENT, Tasha Fedrick was the only person who takes the lead role and the so-called Tasha was her step sister, how pathetic.
The lead role in the movie was expected to act weak and broken as her heart was shattered when her fiance died and her family blamed her for it. Though it was a movie, she didn't really have to act broken as she was broken in reality it was like she was acting a part of her personality.
She was about to start when the door opened revealing a handsome young man in his late 20s. His hair was arranged neatly, his face was flawless, and he had broad shoulders which made him look seductive. He was dressed in an all-black tuxedo, he placed his hands in his pocket as he walked majestically or rather seductively into the hall
The whole place was thrown into commotion as everyone looked at him flabbergasted at how an Alpha can be this appealing. Even from afar, she could see his silver eyes shining at her as her heart skipped a beat
“Mate!” Her wolf shouted inside her and she was astonished.
"No! He is not mate" She said to her wolf as she blushed slightly.
He walked towards the directors and they looked so surprised to see him "Good day Mr Zack, it's an honour to have you here" The head director said standing up and bowing in respect, it was clear that Zack had a deep influence in people those eyes of his could make anyone go weak in the knees but at the same time tremble in fear.
He sat in a comfortable chair as he crossed his legs and looked at her "Are you going to keep staring?" He said with slight irritation in his voice.
She immediately jumped out of her thoughts as she blushed in embarrassment. "My apologies Mr Zack," She said looking at him but he didn't spare her a glance making everyone laugh at her mindless gesture
"You may begin Miss Guan," The director said and she nodded
She immediately changed into a different person as she ran her hands around her hair in frustration, tears flowed down her eyes and she sat down lust in thoughts. Anyone who saw her could tell that she was doing this with her all, most people had tears flowing down their eyes while others stayed focused as she acted with passion it was clear that she was the perfect person for the role
"She acts better than Tasha Fedrick," One of the girls said and everyone nodded
"They have the same surname, I think there is a thing with those who answer Fedrick" And everyone smiled as they continued to watch her.
"Stop!" Zack said, making everyone turn to him in surprise and she stopped acting as well.
Her heartbeat increased when she heard his voice, wasn't she good enough for his standard? Why did he tell her to stop? She needed this role, this is in fact the biggest audition she had ever attended and it seemed it was becoming a failure
"Congratulations you got the lead role Miss guan, and the person after you got the support role," He said indifferently as everyone clapped their hands with a smile.
"Much deserved," Some person's exclaimed.
She looked at him as a smile appeared on her face, he looked at her and scoffed before walking out.
"Savage," She said a little bit embarrassed
"There would be a dinner tonight at the eatery close by, Miss Guan and Miss Charlotte you're expected to be there as all other characters would be present," The director said and walked out.
Guan smiled at Charlotte and they immediately felt a connection. They both did not believe they would get the role and they dreaded the person who would judge but not only did they end up getting the role, they also ended up getting approval from Zack too, it felt so good.
