Five Alphas Kneel for Me (Isabella) novel Chapter 157

Chapter 157

I tore the receipt the printer spat out, the paper fragments fluttering to the ground.

My wolf, usually simmering with quiet intensity, felt a surge of amusement.

Turning, I offered Emily and Linda a saccharine smile.

“Oops, sorry; I accidentally tore the receipt,” I said, my voice light.“But you won’t be returning these, right? We don’t need the receipt.”

Their faces darkened; eyes locked on me, sharp and accusatory. My inner wolf felt a thrill of the hunt.

Ignoring them, I beamed at the sales she–wolf.

“Quickly, pack these up; the commission is all yours.”

Her eyes widened; she practically vibrated with excitement. A twelve–million moonstone order–the commission would be at least one hundred thousand silver coins. She bowed low.

“Thank you,

Miss! Thank

you, Miss!”

“Isabella! I wanted the new arrivals, not your clearance stock!!” Linda snarled, her face flushed crimson with rage. Her wolf’s scent was acrid, a blend of frustration and indignation.

I blinked innocently, a teasing smirk playing on my lips.

“Really? I’m new here; perhaps I got the wrong items. What should I do?”

My inner wolf chuckled, enjoying this little game.

Linda’s claws dug into her palms. Her wolf was clearly losing control.

“You said it was last year’s inventory!” she hissed, her voice shaking.

I tilted my head, smirking.“Did I? Perhaps you misheard.”

My wolf’s growl rumbled low in my chest.

Linda felt the sting of defeat, her voice rising to a shrill cry.“You’re bullying Emily!”

Her wolf’s scent was laced with desperation.

She braced for an argument, but my response was unexpected, even to my own wolf.

I nodded calmly.

“Yes.”

That single word hit her like a physical blow. Her eyes widened, lips trembling.

Her wolf whimpered, exposed and vulnerable.

I sneered, a touch of sarcasm in my eyes, and a triumphant snarl echoed in my wolf’s mind.

“Even if I did nothing, you’d say I’m bullying her. So I might as well do it outright and save you the trouble.” My wolf reveled in the power dynamic.

I looked at them, daring them to challenge me.“Besides, you came here looking for a fight. I’m merely assisting you.”

Linda trembled with rage, chest heaving.

Her wolf’s scent was raw, almost painful.

Before she could speak, I smiled innocently, tilting my head, speaking gently yet dripping with sarcasm.

“Besides, it’s your fault for being foolish. These designs are from two years ago; you can’t even tell the difference; why are you studying design? Why are you going to the moonstone fashion show?”

My words were barbed, striking at their pride. My wolf let out a triumphant howl.

Linda’s face burned; her fists clenched tight.

She snarled, “You’re jealous of Emily going to the moonstone fashion show!”

Her wolf’s scent was laced with bitter envy.
