Chapter 3.5: The White House II
JULY
"AGENT MERCADO? Are you okay?" I heard the president ask.
"Mission is mission." I heard my wolf say it again.
"I’m okay, sir. I'll accept the maid's outfit. It's my job and duty to make everything perfect on this mission. I can't compromise the name of our agency, sir,” I said politely.
He was smiling widely at what I said. "I know I can count on you, July. I think we can get along."
‘Thank you, father-in-law.’
Wolf! Shut up!
My ‘wolf’ is growing teasing me. Tsk!
"As I said, sir, it's all for the sake of the job," I seriously said
"Thank you, July. Hold on. Just a moment," he said and motioned his hand to the nearest guard. The guard immediately approached him. "Tell Kakay, I need her here." The guard nodded and left immediately.
Soon after, Kakay arrived, who looked like Kakay the Comedienne. Her aura is so kind. She was pleasantly smiling at me. And because I'm kind by nature, I smiled back.
"Mr. President, do you need me?" Kakay asked.
I almost burst out laughing as Kakay Comedienne's voice was the same as hers. What are they... twins?
I just averted my eyes from the pictures hanging on the wall to distract myself. And that's when I noticed that the pictures of the ex-presidents were lined up there. And on the bottom table are the pictures that I can't see very well because the frames are quite small, but there was a big frame with Natalia's picture on it that my eyes were glued to.
"Imprint now! What a beauty! Let’s take her as a mate!" That was my wolf again.
Then you will regret it one of these days when you choose her. I answered her.
"Nahhh... Mate! Mate!" she shouted. Wow, I guess I spoiled this ‘wolf’ too much.
"Uhm, July?" I heard someone calling my name. When I turned around, it was the president.
"Yes, sir?" Damn, I think I'm zoning out more often these days. Not good.
"These are the uniforms..." he handed me the black and white uniform that is the same as what Kakay is wearing now. I was reluctant to accept them.
"Kakay will lead you to where you will stay."
"Okay, sir."
I will not show that I am disappointed in what is happening. I keep reminding myself that it’s my mission. After all, I am the best at covering missions. I will not embarrass Valiente just because I don’t like my mission now.
"Let's go, agent!" the maid said.
I stood up, holding the uniform he gave me and my leather jacket.
Kakay walked first, and I just followed.
It was the first time I got inside WH, and I can say it was the place where you could see yourself on the floor because the marble tiled floor is so clean.
The interiors are old and look good with new designs that complement them. Before, I thought the White House was all pure white, but now, I can't help but be impressed with its designers.
We passed a lot of rooms before Kakay stopped in a room on the right.
"This will be your room, agent..." she said and opened that room.
I wasn't surprised at how beautiful it was because I was expecting it and the beauty and size of that room are not far from my room in our mansion.
"Thank you, Kakay..." I said with a pleased smile.
The room was plain white, which I liked because I was a bit picky about colors. Jacqui even quoted that I am a "neat freak". And I love the color white. It was plain and simple.
"You are welcome, agent," she said, smiling. I smiled back.
“It's July, Kay. Just call me July," I said with a toothy grin and turned away from her.
She’s still not leaving. I can still sense her even when I turn my back. I was expecting her to leave earlier when I turned around, but she was just giddily standing there with a wide smile looking at me.
My wolf asked, "What’s wrong with her?"
I replied, "I don’t know." Kakay was still smiling and looking at me.
I wanted to see if the uniform she gave me fit, but I don't want to undress in front of her, despite my sexy body.
"Ahh... I'm okay, Kay…” I said in a friendly way. I hope she gets what I mean.
"Get out, maid! Privacy! Go away. Shoo!" shouted my wolf. My wolf is so mean sometimes.
“Don’t be harsh! Stop being so mean!” I told my wolf. She just scoffed.
I don't know why my wolf is like that. I am kind and respectful. My wolf is my opposite. She's so hyper and has anger issues. But I'm still thankful she's my wolf because, even though she's like that, we're still a perfect team. Especially in combat.
"Oh yes. I'm sorry, Miss July. It’s just that I am so stunned at your beauty. Are you a model? Or are you an actress? Can you give me an autograph?" she asked, looking at me like she saw a famous person.
Now I understand why she’s not leaving yet. I smiled at what she said.
"No..." I replied.
"Oh, I thought you were an actress or a model. You're so beautiful. You're so tall. When you decide to be an actress, I will be your number one fan. That’s a promise!"
"Thank you..." I was so amused at her fangirling.
That conversation was interrupted because her phone rang. She answered the phone, and I continued to look around the room.
"Uhm, excuse me, Miss July, don't you need anything anymore?" I looked at her as I shook my head, meaning I didn’t need anything from her. "I have to leave because the princess is calling me." As she said the word "princess" her face suddenly turned sour.
"Princess?" I wondered.
"Yes. The spoiled princess..." she sighed. "All right. It's nice to meet you, Miss July. I hope you will not have a hard time watching over the spoiled princess..." she said and left before I could ask anything from her again.
My eyebrows raised, thinking about what Kakay said. I already have an idea of who she calls the spoiled princess, but I still can't believe that a beautiful angel-like person is a super opposite in real life. You can’t judge someone based on their mere appearance.
And I don’t need more proof to verify that she is the spoiled princess because I heard Natalia ranting to Kakay about trivial things. She’s super demanding too. This is typically rich, entitled behavior.
How did I know that? I'm a wolf, remember? I'm no ordinary human being. I can hear people’s conversations for a limited time of 2-3 miles.
After wearing the maid's uniform, I went to the big cabinet. There was a tall mirror attached to it. I looked at my reflection in the mirror.
My wolf said, "Not bad." I agree with her. I shrugged and nodded and arranged my brown hair into a bun.
After I fixed my hair, I looked at myself in the mirror again. I am still wearing my boots, and they match what I am wearing. I can say that the woman in the mirror is superbly hot in a maid's uniform.
I cannot believe this uniform would suit me. I picked up my phone and took a picture and sent it to Jacqui. She immediately replied by saying "hot maid" in her text.
I know she'll say that. She's my best friend, anyway. She will always be on my side. We have no malice either because Jacqui is straight. Also, I won't hit on her. She's my effin' best friend! I shouldn’t even think about her like that.
“Right! Why do you think that way?” my wolf asked.
I just ignored her. I organized my things first, and then I left that room to go to the kitchen because I was so thirsty.
My thirst increased when I didn’t immediately see where the kitchen was. The WH was massive! Where is the kitchen?!
I looked for guards to assist me, but they weren't around anymore. Just when I needed them, they were nowhere to be found!
"I’m hungry!" my wolf demanded. Oh shit! I just remembered that I forgot to eat breakfast earlier because I was in a rush.
"No worries. We’re going to eat," I said.
“Finally! Finally!" my wolf replied, sarcastically. I did not quarrel with her again because it was my fault.
A few more turns and I, at last, found WH’s dirty kitchen. No one was there, so I decided to just serve myself food.
I ate the first meat I saw in the refrigerator and more other raw meat products because my monster wolf was very hungry.
I continued eating until my wolf was satisfied and I drank the bottled water I saw in the refrigerator.
"Hey, you! Bring us something to eat in my room. ASAP!" I heard someone say it from behind.
My wolf shouted happily, "My mate!"
I was so stunned I could not speak, not knowing what to do.
Then I heard my heartbeat getting louder.
Am I having a heart attack?
