Early Saturday morning, Dominic had not long arrived at his company. As per his usual behaviour he had used the back entrance of the building, which had its own private elevator to access the building.
Himself and Michael often use this route to avoid bumping to Dominic's employees and avoiding the press.
With Dominic experiencing increased side effects of the Alpha X gene. He did not want to risk putting his employees in danger. One of his newly developed symptoms was his increased ability to senses other pheromones from quite some distance away, along with high acute hearing ability. Therefore, entering the company discreetly and limiting is interactions with others was beneficial for him.
Today was an important day, Michael was due to be introduced has the companies' interim CEO. Dominic had instructed that Michael use the main entrance of the building, as this will allow his employees to witness Michael on first arrival.
On arrival in the company, Michael had walked straight to the private CEO elevator, without much thought. He was very comfortable in his position and with always being around Dominic he generally did what Dominic did, often forgetting the world he lives in.
As Michael was waiting for the elevator doors to open, a male voice called out, quite rudely, "excuse me, are you lost?".
Michael was a little puzzled at first, wondering to whom the male was referring, with no response from Michael again the male repeated, this time raising his voice "I asked if you're lost?". The male's raised voice had now attracted the attention of everyone who was around, and now unwanted eyes were glaring grudgingly at Michael.
Michael chuckled to himself, shaking his head and using every muscle in his body not to snap the neck of this man before him. Michael had no problem with being asked who he was and where he was going, that's common protocol and expected. What he did not find appropriate or in noway amusing was other's complete disregard for human decency and etiquette. Was it so hard for this male to address him politely and with some respect.
Michael became stern and fired back at the male, who now upon reviewing his appearance appears to be a guard. "To whom do you think you're addressing in such manner" Michael retaliated through gritted teeth and now due to anger had started to emanate his defensive pheromones.
Immediately the male felt threaten and called for backup, as if they were on standby several beta males turned up and surrounded Michael.
Michael didn't know whether to laugh or cry, as the situation had become far too familiar to him, giving them an evil glare he removed his suit jacket, "haha! If you guys want to fight, it's a fight you'll go get" declared Michael getting his body into a fighting stance.
At this point Dominic who was in his office and had gotten a whiff of Michael's alpha pheromones, his senses immediately became alert, and he dashed out of his office following the scent, he could tell something was wrong.
When he arrived at the front entrance of his company, what he witnessed angered him tenfold, there were multiple security men fighting with Michael, instinctively Dominic moved to defend Michael, but his speed was beyond human. He came before Michael and immediately grabbed the neck of the man who was about to attack him, lifting him in the air like the thin piece of paper, then throwing him approximately twenty feet into a nearby wall.
Bystanders witnessing Dominic's strength were astonished, how was he able to throw a fully grown man like he was a mere doll with one hand. Yes, alphas are well known for their great strength, but his abilities were paramount to other
When the other security men realised Dominic had come to Michael's aide, they abruptly paused and looked at each other puzzled. In that instant, Dominic roared, "how dare you touch him!", then released a lethal dose of his pheromones, attacking only the male beta guards who stood around them. What was shocking was his pheromones completely avoided Michael and the gathered crowed who stood watching. Michael looked on in amazement at the fallen bodies around him, then looked to Dominic and a proud smile came rose to his face, though worried for his best friend he couldn't help but think Dominic was outstanding.
Michael approached Dominic and caught the moment, his eyes had changed from harrowing red to his neutral colour. Frozen Michael was a taken aback for a moment, but thought it's best to discuss it with Dominic in private and away from their growing audience, instead he took Dominic by the wrist and pulled him into the open elevator.
Michael tried to calm Dominic down with great difficulty, he had many questions, but this was not the time to ask them. The moment the doors to the elevator opened, he instantly saw Andrew running towards them with a worried look on his face. Immediately a worried Andrew began checking his body for injuries, "Are you okay, did they hurt you.....huh?" Andrew asked worryingly.
Michael smiled and pulled him into his embrace, "is my little wife, worried about me?" He asked cheekily, leaning his face closer towards Andrew in an attempt to kiss him. Andrew enjoyed his provocation momentarily before pulling away and mumbling under his breath "idiot, I thought you were hurt" he said shyly with a slight blush to his cheeks
Dominic, who was still fuming, addressed them "come to my office" he said coldly and as obedient children both Michael and Andrew followed behind him.
