"Mr Grey" I was astonished to see him right behind me and I moved a bit for him to walk freely towards the counter

"M.. Mr Grey" the guy at the counter stuttered as Mr Grey beheld him.

"What were you on about employees with minor roles?" Mr Grey grabbed a chair and sat by the counter waiting for his question to be attended to

"N.. n.. no.. nothing sir" his voice shook in fear "It's not what you think. I thought she was stealing from the company and using you as an excuse" he said and Mr Grey smirked.

"Someone here hasn't been reading the magazine of this company" he hit his fist angrily on the counter making everyone startle at first.

"I'm sorry sir" he apologized

"Apologize to her" he said

"I'm sorry miss" the coffee guy said and I looked at him in disgust and sighed.

"Listen up everyone" Mr Grey said loudly and the noise which was earlier heard seized immediately; what power he held!

"This young lady here is my new personal assistant, I'll need you all to give her some respect" he s

    **Alarm beeps**"Oh! How I hate the alarm!" Beatrix sighed getting up from her bed. She hurriedly had a shower and searched her closets for clothes."Hmph" a happy sigh escaped her lips when she found her black skirt and pink dress lying on her couch."There you are" she hurriedly went over and put them on. Sitting in front of the mirror, she neatly brushed her long curly brown hair and styled it neatly into a ponytail."I'll be late again and there's nothing I can do about it" she nonchalantly said as she dropped her phone and peered into the mirror to take a last glance at herself, her deep blue eyes revealed innocence yet mystery. She picked up her bag, shut her door and she flagged down a taxi. "Beatrix! You're late again!" Miss Lorena shouted giving her a stern look."I'm sorry ma'am. I just had....." one of the things she hated aside living an uncomfortable life was being scolded by miss Lorena "Not your flimsy excuses" she shove her off waving her hands "Get to work" she wal

    The cubicle was the most famous strip club in San Francisco, there, rich personalities were always present and Beatrix was lucky enough to get in there as a stripper. She had been working as a stripper at The cubicle for three months and she loved the job because of her love for dancing. After her first month, she was made the most expensive stripper and was always given a spot to dance at the VIP room where billionaires came not only to feed their eyes but also their sexual desires. As she walked into the building following the entrance meant for workers,"Heyyyy! where have you been?" Miss Lorelei who had been pacing around the hallway hurriedly walked up to her."I'm sorry miss Lorelei. I overslept" she apologized "it's fine, Laura is filling in for you but you've got to hurry up" she led her into her own personal room"the make up artist will be here soon" she said as she impatiently picked up her phone to call the makeup artist. "miss Lorelei, calm down!" Beatrix chuckled, she wo

    She sat in her room thinking about what Mrs Lorelei had told her the previous night."Should she accept Paxton's offer to spend a night with him?" she pondered on this. Truly, she needed to build her life with the money and above all, she wanted to stop working at the coffee shop. So giving it a try wouldn't be bad, she thought. She picked up her phone to call miss Lorelei to tell her she had accepted but on a second thought, she decided to rethink accepting it and whatever her outcome would be, she knew she had to think fast. **phone rings**"Hey girl" Tyler said over the phone"hello" she said faintly"are you okay? you don't sound too good""uhm... I just need to get some rest""rest?" Tyler shouted and she jerked "what's the matter? why did you shout?" she was surprised"You're meant to be at work" "Work?" she looked at her phone screen "what? I'm done for!" she sobbed. All these while, she had been thinking it was the weekend."Did you forget?" Tyler was getting concerned"I ac

    "huh?" Beatrix lifted her head to look at miss Lorena. Did she really mean it? or was she pulling her legs? she couldn't answer that"you heard me! or you don't need it" she raised a brow"I..I...I do" she found herself stuttering. But wait!"I don't think you'd give me one more chance and want nothing in return" she glared at miss Lorena"you're right dear! nothing goes for nothing" she smiled mischievously and Beatrix mumbled some choice of words under her breath. She wished her life didn't have to be so bad that she'd end up begging to work in a coffee shop. Nevertheless, she still needed to hear what miss Lorena was going to demand.She looked up at miss Lorena "and what could that be?" she kept a straight face."you don't need to give me that look dear. It's nothing hard. I just want you to work full-time without shifts. You begin by 8 am and go home by 11 pm" she meant business.Beatrix was amazed by her demand, it was an easy one but not for her. Here she was thinking that miss

    Alarm beeps"Can't I get enough sleep?" Beatrix said still sleepy, her eyes shut as she turns away and soon goes back to dreamland."Nooo" she yelled as she immediately opened her eyes and jerked out of her bed. She looked around like she had just been visited by a ghost but she could see no one in her room and hear no sound aside for her phone which kept buzzing."Goodness gracious!" she ran her hands through her hair, perhaps, she had been in a very terrible nightmare for her to jerk just to the sound of her ringtone. She looked around and her eyes widened at the sight of the wall clock, it was 7.30 am, she had just 30 minutes to get ready for work."Not now Miss Lorelei" she said looking at her phone screen. Miss Lorelei had buzzed her a couple of times; maybe it was because she didn't show up the previous day. Beatrix sighed inwardly, this was the worst moment of her time. She had to survive but it was getting tough on her, she still needed some time for herself and she wasn't get

    "Let's talk" Paxton said and she nodded, nervously after being dumbfounded for sometime."This way please" he said leading her across the street to his car which was parked by the roadside.Beatrix hesitated for a while before getting into the car. She hoped he wasn't one with an ulterior motive."You'll be fine... I won't harm you" he seemed to have noticed her countenance. He opened his car door widely for her and she stepped in; trusting her mind that he wasn't a bad person.Paxton quickly went over to the driver's side and slid into the car, shutting the door after him."Where are we going?" she needed to at least know the answer to that."Uhmm... I have no idea, so I'll let you make the decision" he said and she smiled; he was definitely not pulling some bad strings but she had no place in mind."Any where would be better" she said looking away. "What!?" she gasped and she immediately shielded her face."What's the matter?" Paxton asked turning off the engine of the car."Drive o

    "You!" "Huh?" she gasped, covering her mouth with her palm. What was Paxton saying? was he drunk or what? she asked herself."Me? why me?" "I'm not a club person. Most people believe that wealthy men that go to the club do that to satisfy their sexual urge-" he paused to see if Beatrix was in agreement and just as he had expected, she was."Yeah, 'cause that's the main reason they go there. No man would want a stripper as a wife" Beatrix said and Paxton sighed deeply, she was definitely a difficult one."I'm not those men. The reason I go to The Cubicle regularly is because of you" he licked his lips and then continued"I went there to get one of my friends and I saw you. The moment I set my eyes on you, I fell in love with you and I had to inquire about you. Lorelei told me that you're the best dancer-""and that didn't ring a bell? I'm a stripper!" "Who cares darling? I want to spend the rest of my life with you. I want you to be my woman" he stood up and walked close to her"I d

    "I'll relay your response to him" miss Lorelei seemed disappointed at Beatrix decision but Beatrix couldn't do anything about that.As much as she wanted the money, she didn't want her name being heard because of a billionaire; "Just a night" she said to herself taking a deep breath."-Or would you like to tell him yourself?" miss Lorelei asked her. She knew Paxton would be completely disappointed and she didn't want to see that disappointed look on his face but it seemed like she would have to."No, it's fine. You do it. Besides, I don't have his number and the next time I want to see him, is during the sex night" she forced a smile pushing her chair backwards and she stood up."Goodnight" she said to miss Lorelei ignoring that she was disappointed and taking her purse, she walked out of the restaurant. For some reason, she wished miss Lorelei had planned the meet up with Paxton. She wanted to see him so badly and also apologize for being tactless."I hope I'm not falling for him" sh

    "I'm Amelia" she said when we stepped out of Mr Grey's office"I'm Mia. It's nice to meet you" I said stretching out my hands but surprisingly, she pulled me into a hug"Welcome to Grey Airlines, I'm sure we'll make a good team. I'll tell you everything you need to know about your work" she smiled at me handing me a couple of files "Okay..." I chuckled clutching the files tightly to my chest"And then, Mr Grey's likes and dislikes" she rolled her eyes and sat on the desk just outside Mr Grey's office."This will be your desk" she took the files from me and dropped them on the table"oh nice" I said dropping my bag on the chair. It was right outside Mr Grey's office and I could see through the glass wall into his office."Mr Grey doesn't like late coming..." she continued, I saw her mouth move inaudibly as she said alot of things that I couldn't hear. I was staring at Mr Grey's as he went through some papers and I wondered what kind of person he was.I grasped as Mr Grey looked up at

    My eyes dropped, not in disappointment but in surprise and shock.Not only did I get in, I got the post of a secretary. Not just a random secretary but a personal secretary to Mr Grey.Why?? I wondered why they'd pick me for that high post. Was Mr Grey there all through my interview? Did I impress him with my replies that he couldn't resist the urge to make me his personal secretary?"Hmm" I smiled nodding my head incessantly, I could feel butterflies in my stomach. I felt on top of the world that I impressed a billionaire. It wasn't an easy task impressing a famous billionaire; they had everything.I danced around my room gracefully in happiness and stopped abruptly when my mind went off to when I used to dance at the clubhouse, "how I missed dancing" I sniffled and my heart saddened when I remembered Paxton.I had learnt to leave with the fact that Paxton was dead and wasn't coming back to me.And Just like they say, time heals all wounds. I would still feel sad whenever I remembere

    _One Year later_New York City_I took out a neatly ironed suit from my wardrobe and put it on. I needed to look good for this interview."Perfect" I smiled staring at my reflection through the mirror as I combed my hair neatly and tied it into a ponytail.I put on a black stiletto heels to compliment my white suit and I picked up my bag and some documents."Grey Airlines" I said flagging down a cab"Okay ma'am" he said and I proceeded to go in. In few minutes, we were already at the company and the cab stopped just in front of the building. I alighted the cab and took a deep breath as I looked around the company.Alot of people trooped in and I could guess majority of them also came for the interview. Grey Airlines was one of the best airlines in New York City and a lot of people dreamed to have one or two things with them, either working with them, working for them or getting to travel through them and I guess I wanted to work for them and travel through them.Despite the large num

    "Ma'am, here are the keys to the apartment you paid for" the lady at the entrance of the apartment said to me and I smiled collecting it."I hope you enjoy your stay in Panama City" she added and I nodded, I hoped so too.I had decided to lay low in Panama city for a while before going to a place where I could start up another life."I can help with that" a young man said taking my bags and he took them to my apartment. I should tour panama city before returning to my apartment, I thought to myself and I waited at the entrance for my keys."I put your things in your room" the young man came downstairs handing my keys over to me "Thanks" I nodded putting on my sunglasses and I hit the streets of Panama.**One Month Later**It had been a month at Panama city and I was beginning to love the place but I needed to resume my life, I needed to start up something.I reached out for my bag and brought out the paper in which I had written Tyler's and Miss Lorelei's phone numbers.I was certai

Ever since we became friends, whenever Tyler came up with a solution, it happened to work and I was hoping this too would work.I dropped my clothes on the bed and walked towards Tyler"What's the solution?" I said standing a breath away from him and he took my hands"Come sit" he pulled me to the bed where we sat down."So I was thinking-" he cleared his throat and aswallowed hard as he stared at me who felt the suspense was killing me."I'll take the blame. I'll admit to everything" he said and I stood up abruptly in anger."Is that what you call a solution?" I yelled at him, throwing at him my clothes"Out of all things to think of! This?" I was furious at him."That's a solution! is it not? I'm trying to help you here Beatrix" "Help me? by putting yourself in the middle? then what happens to my conscience? You expect me to be fine after you admit to something you had no hand in" "You had no hand in it too. You'll wo

    "Let me walk you to the stage" Miss Lorelei said to Beatrix standing up from the couch. She was irritated about Laura's sudden change in behavior."Okay then" Beatrix stood up immediately and followed her."I'm sorry about Laura's behavior" she apologized as they walked together but Beatrix smiled "I knew it would happen sooner or later. It's only normal for her to express her anger" she walked ahead of miss Lorelei who doubled her pace.They got close to the stage and they stopped, waiting for the announcer to make known her presence to the crowd."You seem a bit distracted" miss Lorelei noticed"I'm not distracted, I'm just tired" Beatrix put her hand on her waist as she shook her legs to get rid of her nervousness."Okay, if you say so""...And the lady we've all been waiting for is here" The announcer said immediately he saw them back stage.

    Her heartbeat doubled as her thoughts failed her. Could she be dreaming? She hoped that was the case."Paxton, Paxton" she called him, tapping him on his shoulders lightly and when she got no reply, her fear took over her. She finally found the courage to stand up and she looked down at Paxton."Noo!" she screamed crying! There was a gunshot wound close to his chest."Paxton!" she shook his violently, tears dripping from her eyes but she got no reply, he was lifeless.She picked up her phone and thought of calling the ambulance but on a second thought, she couldn't do that, she'd be the only suspect, so she made sure she took everything that belonged to her and with a heavy heart, she walked briskly out of his house.She walked as fast as her legs could carry her. She cared about Paxton, but she needed to save herself.Entering a cab wasn't necessary, she walked home.
