Reborn- His Scarlett Moon

“Please put all these back to their respective places! ”

Ryan pulled all the books down from the shelf as soon as Sherry entered.

It was her first day at work.

Last night was already crazy. But it seemed like the morning was going to get crazier.

After her flash contract signing, Sherry was treated with some uniforms that were flashier.

The one she was wearing for the day was a white shirt and a red pencil skirt. It seemed like the shirt lacked several buttons at the top. Even a tiny little bumpy movement could send her cleavage, wiggling out to everyone’s vision.

After witnessing Ryan give her that strange first command, she decided to ignore all and carry on with job.

As she was done putting back the last book on top of the shelf, she turned towards Ryan and bowed, just to let him know that she had finished.

Ryan smiled at her and she smiled back.

Little did she know that he would stand up once again. Just to pull the entire content of the shelf down once more.

Sherry looked at him with eyes filled with absolute revulsion.

” What? Are you already denying me service? ”

He asked with a stern voice. But the tone of amusement in his voice was hard to ignore.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

” No. Not at all. I was just trying to guess the logic behind your action! ”

That was Sherry’s reply as she went over to the other side and started picking up the books.

Ryan stood there watching her from his spot.

” Sassy b*tch! You even carry her attitude, not only her face! ”

Sherry caught his murmur but did not bother to turn back.

She meticulously sorted all the items, before putting them back.

Ryan kept watching her. It would be more apt to say that he was devouring her through his gaze.

” Alph… Boss! ”

Beck came running in with some news.

Sherry’s back was turned towards him, so he did not at all notice her in the beginning.

” Yes, Beck. What is it? What got you up so early ? It’s not yet past the afternoon. Don’t you usually wake up in the evening? ”

All of Ryan’s men and women were spoiled. Not only his werewolves. They were free to do what they pleased, perhaps that was why their dedication was on another level.

Beck sure did not see Sherry’s face but her presence at Ryan’s main office was itself strange.

He never ever allowed women to enter his personal spaces. They only served at the outlets or in his bed chamber.

Beck stole a glance at her, still busy picking up the tidbits that Ryan had scattered.

” Ummm, well, can we talk about it here? ”

Beck asked Ryan if it was okay to talk about their secret affairs in front of an outsider.

“It’s alright! Go ahead and say what you came here sprinting for. It looks kind of urgent. We cannot dilly dally important matters for a turtle. ”

Nobody knew if Ryan said that to annoy Sherry, belittle her or if did it to get her reaction.

If it was the last option, he sure did succeed with flying colors.

Sherry turned back with vigor.

” Did you just call me a turtle? ”

Ryan had no reaction to her question but it sent Beck flying in shock.

” She is…. She is…. ”

He was stammering with one hand over his mouth and another hand pointing in Sherry’s direction.

” She is Sherry Beck, a regular human and our latest acquisition. ”

Sherry did not miss the smirk on his face. She was to some extent certain that he was trying to push her tolerance limit. She wondered if it was his nature or was it part of ragging a newbie because they were lords of the underworld.

Sherry opened her mouth wide to say something but wisely chose to shut it back without uttering another word.

As she put the things in her hand back on the shelf, she was starting to wonder, had she really agreed to sell her self respect. Had she traded her dignity for some quick cash? Would she be trampled upon again and again, under this new tyrant?

Then she shook her own head.

” It was for my father. It was for his treatment! ”

She reassured herself.

” Bellow! Bellow my boy! ”

Ryan yelled as the little guy came running in from nowhere.

” Below, please show Sherry the toilets at my Back office. They have not been used for quite some days. Give her everything she needs to make it squeezy clean. So clean that she would be able to lick the floor! ”

Sherry breathed in with her eyes closed.

It must have been the longest breath holding challenge in human history.

She finally opened her eyes , exhaled and said,

” Okay, Bellow, let’s go! ”

She huffed her way out, wagging her butt like a golden retriever.

Ryan watched them leave down the stairs. He even moved his blinds to check her leaving the building.

Beck watched all of that.

He turned to face Ryan with eyes that were flooding with horror and questions.

” If you are going to ask me if she is Alpha Sherizad, let me clear it beforehand. She is no werewolf but a mere lowly human. I had the same shock when I first saw her, skimpily dressed, standing in front of me as a call girl.

She took my senses away.

I looked up her history and background thoroughly after that.

She is a pauper living with a dying father, beside a dump yard. Going about selling her body to make ends meet. With that face.

How disgusting. How tactless.

So I decided to punish her for her actions. Carrying that face around is an offense in itself.

How could she go around sleeping with random men with that face on? How? ”

Beck watched him with confusion. Was he angry at her or was he sad?

Was he reprimanding her or was it for himself?
