A joyful expression blossomed on her composed face.

“Thank you, Alpha.

I will work hard and not let you down!”

I nodded, pulled a document from the stack on my desk, and asked, “When can you start?”

Given the volume of documents I needed to process, I hoped the new secretary could begin immediately.

Alexandria’s response was exactly what I hoped for.

“I’ve settled all my personal matters.

There’s

nothing left to prepare.

I can start working right now.

“That’s excellent.

Then, turning to Carlos, I instructed, “You’re responsible for training her.

I need to continue with my work here.

She can start as soon as you’ve shown her the ropes.

“No problem,” Carlos replied briskly.

After hiring the secretary, I fully immersed myself in my work.

Perhaps the distraction helped because I found I wasn’t thinking about Debra as much anymore.

Instead, the gloom that had lingered over me lifted as if I had pushed away clouds to see the sun.

I felt significantly more at ease.

When I next looked up, the sun had already set, painting the sky in shades of gold.

The sunset cast a beautiful glow on the clouds, creating a scene more stunning than any painter could conjure.

Even the rift in the sky seemed less horrifying.

But as always, good moments were fleeting.

Darkness soon enveloped the sky, signaling the end of the workday.

I decided to check on Alexandria’s progress in Carlos’ office.

I hadn’t expected her to adapt so quickly, but she had excelled at the tasks Carlos set for her.

She was already capable of working independently.

“Not bad,” I remarked, genuinely impressed.

My satisfaction with the new secretary had increased even further.

“Sure she’s not bad,” Carlos responded with a smug grin.

“She’s the one I recommended, after all.

Realizing that my workload would likely lighten with her help, my mood lifted.

“That’s all for today’s work.

I’ll treat you guys to dinner.

Carlos, ever confident, said, “Okay, but I want something expensive.

“Thank you, Alpha,” Alexandria responded, always polite.

At the restaurant, the three of us shared a table.

I sat across from Carlos, with Alexandria next to him.

While we waited for our food, we started chatting.

As usual, Carlos was the life of the party, and Alexandria, intelligent as she was, chimed in at just the right times.

The mood at the dinner table was very enjoyable.

After the dishes were served, Alexandria suddenly asked, “Alpha, after all this time searching, have you discovered Luna’s whereabouts?”

The comfortable atmosphere vanished instantly, replaced by a heavy silence.

Everyone knew Debra had vanished into the rift.

Most believed she was gone forever.

Several elders had even urged me to find a new Luna.
