Kids from One Alpha

Chapter 60: Professionalism

“What the hell did you just say to me!?” Serena snapped. Her anger filled her, turning her face red and making her hands shake. Never in her life had her professionalism been questioned, and it was all because of some macho pissing contest that Logan felt like he needed to have! “How dare you question my ability to do this job! How dare you question my integrity!” Her voice was rising in volume, and Logan took a half step back. Serena stepped around the desk, closing in on him, her anger causing him to step back again. “Serena, it is a serious accusation to claim that Holly is lying about something medical,” Logan pointed out. Serena scoffed, crossing her arms. “It is a serious accusation of accusing me of falsifying reports!” she shot right back. “And this has nothing to do with what I think about Holly, this has everything to do with the fact that you think I’m dating your Beta, and some controlling Alpha complex makes you mad about it!” Logan looked like she’d just slapped him in the face. “Is that an admission?” he asked. Serena fumed, nostrils flaring. “NO!” She roared, throwing her arms up into the air. “What the hell is going on with you?” she asked. Hands still shaking, Serena shook her head. How could she ever tell Logan he was the father of her kids if he thought her capable of falsifying reports and test results? She had a third-party lab do the tests, but it was still a huge accusation. If he really felt that way, he’d never believe her about the twins. “What is going on with me?” Logan asked. “Why wouldn’t you tell me that you and Carson are together? I thought we were friends.”

“Friends?” Serena asked with another scoff. She leaned back, sitting on the edge of Adriana’s desk. “Friends? You have the audacity to say we are friends after you question my professionalism and claim I’m capable of falsifying lab results?” Logan sighed, looking down at the floor. Serena didn’t care anymore what was going on with him. He was frustrated and upset, that was obvious, but now he was taking it out on her, and that she wouldn’t stand for!

“Logan, first of all, it would compromise my career if I ever did something like that,” she pointed out, working to appeal to his rational mind. “As the sole supporter of my kids, I would NEVER do anything to take that support away. Not to mention, the machines in the lab print out the reports automatically after the blood has been tested. Do you know what kind of computer knowledge it would take to hack that system and create an identical report on a desktop machine?” Logan shrugged, sighing.

would have a claim to them, and who they spent time with would be his business. Shaking her head, Serena went back to sit at the desk. She took deep breaths, calming herself down after her outburst. It was a little out of character for her, but Logan had made her so mad! “I think you should leave,” she said after Logan stood there silently for a while. “If you’d rather yell at me than focus on the health of your girlfriend and your unborn child, then you’re of no use to me here.” Logan snarled, lifting his head and glaring at Serena. She raised an eyebrow at him. “Besides, I still have a lot of work to do,” she added. Logan snorted in annoyance, but he turned on his heel and exited the office. The moment he was gone, Serena sighed a huge sigh of relief. The Alpha’s anger had filled the office with a suffocating force. Now, she could relax and think about what had happened. She and Logan had had fights before, but nothing so personal, nothing so raw. She’d never seen the full force of his temper, fueled by jealousy, control, and possessiveness. That was not a side to him she wanted to see again. It was not a side that she wanted her kids to see either. Olivia and Oliver loved him. She never wanted them to cower before him. Shaking her head, Serena went back to her reports. She still had a full stack to go through. She’d have to find a way to get Holly’s compliance, without Logan’s help. She couldn’t understand why he had been so focused on her and Carson. It wasn’t like she didn’t have other friends in
