Chapter Five
Alpha Free – For Now
As Tina put on the finishing touches of her make-up, she felt a sudden surge of excitement. She had chosen a base color a tone too dark for her skin; giving her appearance an ashen color. Combined with the librarian hair style, schoolmarm eyewear, non-designer navy suit, dull navy flats, neutral handbag, and basic gold jewelry, on the surface Tina looked about as noticeable as a desolate landscape. She smiled gleefully at the transformation. Definitely not alpha worthy…
A day following the transmission of her resume, Shane had sent a text message indicating that the “TPF folks” called. Tina immediately called for the details. A human resource agent named Jaime had contacted Shane and reportedly asked several questions about Tina’s performance at Shaolin. Her friend had volunteered her sadness that her “former assistant” had chosen to leave the organization. She informed Jaime that Tina Kennard was both a highly qualified and innovative individual with a proven track record and that The Peabody Foundation would be foolish not to hire her.
Apparently The Peabody Foundation listened. Jaime contacted Tina later the same day and expressed that The Foundation was impressed with her credentials and wished to interview her for the development position. Tina had taken the opportunity to ask several questions about the position, the organization, and the location of their office in the Los Angeles area. After obtaining the necessary information she scheduled an interview with Jaime and two executives from the Foundation for the next business day.
Based on Jaime’s directions, The Peabody Foundation was located in a large office complex about a half-mile away from the studio. Tina was familiar with the area so she didn’t feel the need to leave home exceedingly early.
Upon arriving at the parking garage, Tina found a place for her passion-red corvette that met her three space rule; no car could be parked within three spaces on either side of the car or she passed on the spot. She hated to risk a nick or scratch and hoped that an assigned parking space was a part of the benefits for the position for which she was interviewing.
After exiting and locking her “baby”, she located the elevators to the building’s entrance. Tina ensured that she traveled to the correct floor to access the skywalk to the Foundation’s offices; she couldn’t risk windblown hair today. When she reached the other side, she slid into an open elevator and pushed the button next to “The Peabody Foundation”.

Tina’s thoughts are just cracking me up and the description of her appearance is beyond homely. The dark base color about summed it up. Great chapter, East! I’m as excited about her first day of work as she is, although for different reasons. Love Helena.
So much fun! This story is a real treat. Bette must have been on the balcony, eh? Maybe, there will be an event that Bette, Tina, Helena and Peggy will attend together? And Bette will suss out Tina behind her plain and homely appearance??
So she’s thinking of moving Helena to the top of that list, I think it would also be a good ideal. But just maybe Peggy should be #1. Love this post. Can’t wait for more!
Great fun East. I think Helena was pretty subdued in this initial alpha meeting. Now I need to reread from the begining to pick up all the hints as to who is mystery alpha lurking in the back ground waiting for Tina to fall into her arms. You are so naughty with this delightful story
Damn! I love this story!
OH MY GOD! Thanks for making me laugh, can glamerous Tina come back soon? I envisaged Tina as a walking ball of electricity, I was sure she was going to get a shocks everytime she touched something. Ok, I’m one of these folk who never judges a book by its cover, your just don’t know what you will unearth. Now, I think Helena is sure going to be blown away when she gets to know Tina. Thanks for this chapter.
Helena is so forthsoming typical alpha but breaking you in…was a ploy to flirt incessively.Because anyone only says that when theyre hoping to spark a reaction.And she used the facade of being British to hide behind saying we having a different way of showing someone the ropes.Nice though how it was done :)…So who was this Brunette on the balcony was this Bette or Helena or someone else cant wait for me i have simplying been chuckling throughout this chapter so thanks good job nobody was hope they might think im crazy
OMG, I love this….can you please promise that you’ll do all in your power to complete this story..however long it takes?? Tks and PPS
can’t imagine how helena will react when she finds out this ‘librarian’ drives a passion-red corvette lol thanks for the regular updates, east! life got in the way yesterday so i was unable to reread the chapter in search for your precious clue ;)
I begining to get a mental image of Tina’s “dress down” and my only comparison at this time is “Ugly Betty”. So it appears that Tina already know of Alpha-Helena Peabody? i’m with Helena on this one “what you aren’t telling us….Miss Kennard?
Great chapter. Helena will be in for one great surprise when Tina eventually shows just who she is or if Helena investigates and finds out for herself. Can hardly wait. Great chapter. Post when you can.
