Four - The Sexy Hot Neighbour And Employee

"You." Was all he said.

"Yeah.... Me." She licked her lips nervously, shifting uncomfortably on her feet.

"I take it you're the new Emergency nurse." He said coldly, his eyes unreadable.

The manager looked between the both of them, bewildered. "You know her, boss?"

"Oh I know her. I know her very well." He drawled in an accent.

Yap, I'm fired before I got hired. I'm really going back to the convent, Christiana mused in her mind in defeat.

Alexandro would have been amused at Christiana's reaction if he wasn't so surprised himself. She was the Emergency nurse?

His eyes took her in, in a new way. Well, one thing was certain. She ain't going around with those beads and a white scarf that hides her hair and covers her forehead. It was also starting to make sense the way she took so much offense about his snarky comment this morning.

Because Hot and sexy here grew up in a convent. This will be very interesting.

Philip, the manager seemed to notice the tension that filled the room. "Errm.....I'll take my leave now, sir."

"No problem, Philip. I'll call you when I need you." He dismissed Philip without taking his eyes of her.

Philip walked out of the room. Alexandro took three steps to the door and turned the lock. Then, he whirled around and gave her a tight smile, while doing his best to hide his amusement.

"Look who we have here. It's the woman that slapped me in the morning." He strode further into the room, making her squirm where she was standing.

"I guess I should be leaving now." Christiana sighed, her spirit down. The world is being so mean to her already, and she hasn't stayed up to one week yet.

The one living being she has ever laid her hands on—in anger—happens to be her boss. Really mean to her.

"Hmm, any particular reason you should guess that?" he drawled, his mouth twitching upwards.

Rude and Arrogant here is finding this very funny. Too bad, She doesn't share the sentiment. He was intentionally making her uncomfortable, making her more nervous.

Oh God! How can this be happening to me! Christiana thought miserably.

"What happened this morning wasn't my fault, sir. You were the one that made the rude remark about me." Chins lifted, she refused to cower. After all, she'll be going back to her home anyway.

Eyes arched to his hairline. He moved away from the door. Silent footsteps met the tiles floors softly. He moved like a panther, she couldn't help thinking as she watched nervously. She'd seen one at the zoo they'd visited one-day for a school project.

His cologne enveloped her when he got really close to her, she began taking steps back until her back but the wall. He trapped her there.

"You slapped me, Christiana." He spoke gently, his breath fanning her cheeks.

Christiana should have known that karma was a bad woman. The first day she impulsively raised her hand on someone was the day she raised her hand on a very wrong person.

"I'm so sorry about that, sir. I never meant to do that, I was just so angry. I know you're gonna fire me because of that and--"

He cut her off, "Did you now..." he'd drawn his face very closed to hers, speaking almost directly to her mouth.

"Errm...wh what are you doing, sir?" she stammered out. A blush had crept into her cheeks.

Alexandro looked at the woman he had trapped to the wall. Her eyes wide, blushing furiously, he had the sudden urge to kiss that sexy small lip she took in between her teeth unintentionally. She was very beautiful.....and innocent.

The last part was like a dose of cold water to him, he doesn't do innocents. Ever. Not to mention that she was his tenant, and about to become his employee also.

He straightened away from her, she breathed a sign of relief. "Come and take your seat, Miss Christiana. Let's get started."

His voice had turned formal, making Christiana wonder if minutes ago was an illusion or did it exactly happen. "You mean, you're gonna interview me?" Had to ask that, a girl can never be too sure. Christiana thought.

"Yap. Let's see what you've got, that's what will determine if you're getting fired or hired. Not this morning." He smiled cynically.

Christiana felt so happy she was overjoyed, she smiled radiantly, "Okay, sir." She took her seat.

An hour later, Alexandro pressed the intercom. "Yes, sir?" Philip answered.

"Come to my office, please."

Seconds later, Philip entered the office, "I want you to accompany Miss Christiana Lewis to see the kids, she's our new Emergency nurse."

Philip turned to the woman smiling beside him, "Congrats, ma'am."

"Thanks Philip." She beamed at the gentleman.

Alexandro didn't like the way she was smiling at Philip one bit, he glared at the manager. "Take her to the children, I have to get to the office before the investors comes." He said through gritted teeth, he turned to Christiana, "I don't want any of those children dying at your watch. Take good care of them."

She seemed to smile the more. "I'll take good care of them, sir. You have nothing to worry about."

For some reason, he loved seeing her smile and he hated that Philip was seeing her smile too. The idiot looked really captivated! Alexandro took his car keys and angrily left the office.

"Is he always like that?" Christiana whispered to Philip after he left and banged the door.

"Like what?" Philp asked.

"Like he's gonna beat someone up any minute?"

"Yea, I heard that's his default setting." Philip answered, making Christiana laugh. She's just so happy, seems like she's gonna live her dream after all.

Three days later, Alexandro was in his house that evening, working in his home office when his best friend, Mark came over. Mark owns the biggest bar in town and a very successful club.

"Hey, man." he said as he flung himself on top of the couch.

"Hey. What have you been up to apart from following the bitches?"

Mark laughed, "I try to live a little. You haven't been coming to the club lately. Lots of those celebrity chicks have been grazing it since the last party."

"They are?" He asked nonchalantly.

"Yap. Come on, let's go have fun. Sitting around in the office all day and coming back home to glue your eyes to the computer, isn't my kind of fun." Mark said as he closed down the computer Alexandro's eyes was glued to.

Alexandro looked at his friend, maybe it was all for the better. "Okay. Let's go."

Duke was happily sleeping in his room, so he just closed the outer door of the main house.

Mark walked out of the gate of TheKings first, then he whistled loudly, "Holy shit! Who's that!?"

Alexandro came out, he saw Christiana walking towards her apartment. "That's my next door neighbor."

"She's gorgeous. You didn't tell me you got a sexy bitch living next door!"

Alexandro didn't like the look on Mark's face. Not one bit. "She's off limits, Mark."

"Huh! Why would....." Mark stopped abruptly when Christiana saw them and waved.

Alexandro just kept on staring at her while Mark waved vigorously as if he couldn't wait for his arm to fall off.

Alexandro grabbed him by the arm "Let's go, pathetic." he drawled.

"Oh! I'm so gonna get acquainted with her, very soon. Can't wait to fuck her really hard, it's gonna be good. That body is a killer." Mark said excitedly.

Alexandro stopped dead in his track and glared daggers at his best friend. "Don't ever think about it, if you don't want my fist down your throat."

"I thought you hate women." He arched his brows.

"I never said I hated them."

"No, you just love burying your díck inside them."

"She's my employee. That basically means she's off limits, Mark."

"She's your employee not mine, buster." Mark laughed excitedly.

"You won't lay a finger on her at all." Alexandro said so gently but his blue eyes held fire.

Mark stopped laughing and took in his best friend, "Oh my! Someone's getting jealous! Sandro you have a thing for the hot neighbor, don't you?"

"I don't. I just don't want you messing her up, she works for me at the orphanage. I want her head around her when she works with those children, don't want any of them dying again."

Alexandro walked ahead of his friend, "We'll use my car, come get in, let's go."

Mark walked behind him, all the while he was thinking. Alexandro has the hots for the pretty neighbor, Mark almost laughed aloud as he entered the car.

Things are about to get very interesting, Mark thought.
