I toss and turn, thinking about how his piercing eyes were staring at me that night.
Why am I still thinking about him? It had been almost two weeks and my interview was the next morning. I'm supposed to be asleep now so I won't be late for my interview.
I remembered how he kissed me with so much control and how it felt so good, I kept thinking about him till i drifted off.
My alarm wakes me up from sleep at exactly 5:30am and I begin to prepare for my interview. I pick a very nice and classy gown and set it on the bed with my matching underwear. I take my shower, get dressed and pick an apple from the kitchen on my way out.
I get to Rodriguez Enterprise at 6:50 am so i have about. I walk into the building and meet a lady at the reception. She was on a call so I had to wait for her to finish.
"Hello" The lady said
"Hello my name is Eulalia , I am here for the interview."
"Okay, the interview is on the 16th floor, when you get there you'll see others waiting and good luck " the lady said smiling at me
"Thank you" I say walking towards the elevator. The elevator was quite full when I got in, people got out and it just remained her and a few others that got to the 16th floor. I sat down like the others and waited on my turn.
"Eulalia, you're next" a lady on a bright blue dress says, I stand up and straighten out my dress, walked to the front of the door and knocked.
"Come in" A deep husky voice said from the other side of the door.
I open the door and walk in, I see a man sitting behind the desk with his head bent downward.
"Good morning sir," I say and the man raises his head and immediately he looks at me I get caught in those eyes, the same eyes that kept me awake for some nights, the same eyes that i can't stop thinking about.
"Sit" he says sternly with a straight face.
I'm in deep shit, there's no way i'm getting this job, he must think i'm a slut, my subconscious screams at me.
I look up and catch him watching me and i quickly look down.
"Why should i give you this job? he asked
Constantine couldn't believe that his little angel walked in here, looking for a job at his company. He has been looking for her but it was a little difficult because he didn't know her full name.
"Well, i'm very efficient, smart, hardworking, punctual and I know i'm capable of handling this job, I promise to work hard and not disappoint you sir," I say with confidence.
"From your CV it's says that you graduated with First class honors in Accounting, so why go for this job?" he asks still looking so sternly without any hint of emotion.
" I have not been able to get any job, so I need to work so i'll be able to sort my bills" I tell him still not looking at him in the eye.
" That's enough, you can leave now" he says quietly
" Umm.. Sir did i get the job?" i try asking
"Leave" he says a little too loudly. I hurriedly walk out of the door.
I get home and meet Mandy.
"You got the job?" she asks excitedly jumping up and down with her eyes open waiting for her answers.
"No, i have to start looking for another job" i say tiredly
I walk into my room, fall on my bed and sleep off.
It's been three days since after my interview and i've been searching for a job everywhere and i've not been able to find anyone. As i lounge on my bed, my phone starts ringing and I see it's an unknown number.
"Hello Eulalia on the line, please who am i speaking with?" i say calmly thinking about who could be possibly calling me.
"Hey, I'm the receptionist from Rodriguez Enterprise and i'm calling to tell you that you got the job and you are to start work on Monday 8am sharp" she said. To say I was shocked was an understatement but I still had the ecstatic feeling because finally I had a job and I can now sort all my bills and also not be scared of being evicted from my house.
"Thank you, thank you so much i'll be there" I said excitedly.
"Mandy, Mandy" I scream and she rushed into my room. "I got the job, I got the job the one at Rodriguez Enterprise" I tell her jumping on my bed.
"Ayyy" Mandy shouts excitedly and tells me to dress up that we have to go shopping for new dresses and i figures that since i'd gotten the job a little shopping wouldn't hurt and besides I had to look very good and give a good first impression on Monday.
We dressed up and went to the mall bought skincare products, bought lingerie , bought a few dresses, shoes, straightened my hair and cut it a little, did my nails.
Oh my God I look so hot
I felt so good about my new look and I couldn't wait for the next day to show off.
Mandy and I decided to stop at Peter's house for her to pick up something she left there before we go home. We get to Peter's door and knock for a while but he doesn't answer so Mandy uses her spare key.
"This place is a mess" Mandy says and I look and see that there are clothes scattered everywhere, we walk towards the hallway and we hear moaning from upstairs, Mandy rushes upstairs.
"Mandy, Mandy!" I try calling her scared of what she'll see upstairs. I hear a scream and i rush upstairs Mandy was cussing at Peter and throwing stuffs. Peter and an unknown girl were on his bed naked.
I drag Mandy out of there and into her car, she was sobbing uncontrollably. Mandy was in no condition to drive the car so we had to manage my wack driving.
"Mandy, you deserve better stop shedding tears for that douchebag, he is not worth it" I console her as we lay on her bed with her still crying. She dozed off after so many hours of crying, i kept water and pain relief on her side table because I was sure she'll need them in the morning after crying for so long.
I was going to have a long day tomorrow so I left for my room, immediately I laid on my bed i slept off.

I wake up and hurriedly prepare for my first day at work, I wear matching panties and a very hot dress. The plan is dress to kill. And dress to kill is exactly what i did I looked so hot, I grabbed my purse and walked out of my house. I hailed a cab and gave the taxi driver directions to Rodriguez Enterprise. As i get down i look at the y'all building. Break a leg, show them what good stuff you're made of I thought to myself. I walk into the building and see the very beautiful and friendly receptionist. "Hey, Good morning I'm Samantha but you can call me Sam. I didn't get to introduce myself the other day". She says smiling at me "Morning, I'm Eulalia but you can call me Euli" I tell her
Constantine's POV What exactly happened in the elevator earlier why did I act like that, there's something about that girl that drove me crazy. I don't understand why i can't stop seeing her eyes or thinking about her. There's something about Eulalia that I couldn't get out of my head, I do not know whether it's her eyes the way it calls me or her smile. My phone starts ringing and the caller ID shows Larissa Why is the crazy girl calling me again doesn't she understand that it was a one time thing. "Why the fuck are you disturbing my phone" i yell at her "Hey babyy, don't you miss me?" she asks in that annoying voice that irritates the hell out of me. "Claire we had a one-night stand, it was nothing serious so stop calling to disturb me" i say her na
I go to work early the next day and when i get to the office I start working on the files my boss had given me the previous day. As I working I get a call from M&G group saying that they will like to have a meeting with my boss by eleven , it seemed that the previous PA had been trying to book an appointment before now but they had been canceling, so I agreed for eleven because Constantine did not have any appointment by eleven. I decide to call him to inform him since I didn't know when he'll be coming in to work today. The phone rang for a while before he finally picked up "Hello good morning Sir, it's Eulalia i'm calling to inform you about your meeting scheduled for eleven with M&G group, they called this morning" "I'll be t
The rest of the day in the office passed in a blur, I had loads of work and Constantine was constantly snapping at me at every slightest opportunity. I did not understand his sudden change in attitude. The meeting for 11am with M&G group had been cancelled for reason i had no idea off but they called, apologized and rescheduled for the next day at the same time. After work I went home, showered, dried my hair and laid on my bed ready to sleep.I turned and tossed for a long time but I could not sleep, I could still feel Constantine's lips on my clit biting and sucking it I was so fucking horny. Mandy was not at home she was staying over at Peter's so I was the only one at home , I went under my bed and brought out Steve my vibrator. Since Constantine was not here to finish what he started i'll have to manage Steve I laid on my bed, spread my legs and got to work, I touched myself and i don't remember how
It was late when I was done with all the work Constantine ordered me to finish before I went home, as I stepped out of my office Constantine also walked out of his office and we both had to enter the same elevator. The air was so tense throughout I had to pretend I was speaking to someone on the phone, when the elevator got to the ground floor we both stepped out."Have a good night sir" I said walking away, i was walking to the bus top so I could catch a bus that will take me home."Enter the car" I stopped and looked back and Constantine was on his phone."Sorry sir, I can go home on my own" I said forcing a smile"Enter the car now and that is not a request it's an order, do not let me repeat myself" his eyes had a look of warning.I entered the car and as the driver started driving away I moved far away from Constantine I sat very close to door with my he
The next morning I wake up and do a little morning workout and then I clean the house and lazy about for the rest of the day. By six pm I start preparing for the movie date with Jason, I wear a simple short gown and sandals as I'm applying lipgloss the doorbell rings. It must be Jason I apply my lipgloss and grab my purse and go out to meet Jason. "You look so pretty" Jason compliments "Thanks, you don't look so bad yourself" He opens the door for me and drives us to the cinema, Jason pays for our tickets we grab our popcorn and a cold drink and enter to see the movie. During the movie Jason puts his hands around my shoulder and pulls me to his chest, I didn't complain because I was so cold I forgot to wear something that prevent cold . We watched 'Conjuring 3 the devil made me do it' it just came out and I really enjoyed it, I
Constantine's POV I know that the way i'm treating Eulalia might be wrong but I do not know why my feelings heighten any time she's around me. I feel like Euli has so much control over me and I don't like it, I didn't get to where I'm today by letting a woman make me putty in her hands. I stepped out of my office after a while to apologize to Euli for the way I dismissed her after we did a few nasty stuffs, I knocked twice on her office door and opened it but she wasn't there. I came out of the elevator at the ground floor and I saw Euli and a young guy I was sure is working in my company, he had good features and I don't know but the thought of Eulalia having feelings for him, caused a tightening in my chest it just didn't feel good at all and I wasn't going to let that happen. I walked over to them. "We have a meeting to attend now, get your
I get home and pull my coat and hang it, then I go to my room to freshen up. I think about the events of today, how Constantine was acting so weird. My phone starts ringing and it's Francis. "Hey big head, what's up?" " I hope you are already on your way cause we are there already" "I'm coming, i'll be there in about thirty minutes" I lie "You better" Francis said I hurriedly enter my bathroom, shower , dress up and pick up the wine I bought for dad before leaving my house. I got to dad's house and I enter without knocking "See who we have here" Gabe shouted he was the first to notice me. "Firecracker" my dad
THREE MONTHS LATERIt's been three months of planning my fairy tale wedding. Mandy gave birth to a baby girl, she was so happy. I cried when I held the baby in my hands, she was so small and cute. I couldn't wait to hold my baby. Yes, I'm pregnant and it's four weeks old. Nobody knew yet, I wanted to tell Mandy when I found out but she went into labor.Mandy asked me to be her child's godmother and I gladly accepted. Constantine was with me when Mandy gave birth because I dragged him to the hospital.A night before my wedding, there was a party for the girls. I invited Katherine and Lisa and they came with their various friends and we had lots of fun. We even booked rooms for the night, Mandy and I stayed together in a room while the rest paired up.On the day of my wedding, I woke up with jitters and I still needed to tell Mandy I was pregnant."Mandy" I tapped her"Yes""I have something to tell you," I said with a smile "I'm pregnant""Oh my....when.....when did you find out?""Bef
A MONTH LATERIt's been a month already since Caesare met his downfall, he was all over the news after that incident and he was investigated. It was not the first time he had stolen another person's design and used it for his collection. His brand suffered a huge loss and he went bankrupt after that, the investors pulled out. His wife also left him.I helped Constantine to prepare his new collection although he had drawn the designs when we separated. I did not come back to Rodriguez but I still helped him. My relationship with my brothers strengthened and we were closer than before.Francis met a new girl Lisa but he was taking his time to know her better before asking her out even though he liked her. I liked Lisa, she was good for Francis. Gabe finally introduced his girlfriend to us, her name was Katherine. She was also a nice girl. We became instant friends once we were introduced.Mandy's belly has increased, her due date was almost near, and she had mood swings and weird cravin
"The plan is we go to his warehouse where he keeps the collection and we cut them into pieces""How do you plan to achieve all these with just me?""I'm planning to use Samantha since she knows something about him""Samantha has left the city""When? I didn't know""After she came to ask for forgiveness she told me she was leaving. My brother broke up with her and she said she can't stay in this city knowing she wronged people""She got what she deserved. Now back to the plan""Why don't you get someone to do it instead, must we do it ourselves?""I don't trust anybody with this and this is going to be fun doing it with you""I'm scared. I don't want to enter any trouble with anybody, can't we just let it go. You said those designs don't mean anything to you again""No, don't man deserves a taste of his medicine. He has been on my nerves since and what he did was the final straw. I must teach him nobody messes with me and goes scot free""I'm begging you let's just forget it and plan
I felt better than I had been since my father's funeral. I was still looking for a job but in the meantime, I engaged in baking cupcakes for little children and I also started playing video games. I enjoyed playing video games.I still did not accept calls from anybody that was not Mandy, I couldn't bring myself to talk to anybody apart from her yet. I was enjoying my time alone, I visited parks and eateries. My phone has been ringing since yesterday and Constantine has been calling me non stop but I didn't pick up, I kept ignoring his call. I was not ready to speak to him now and I didn't know what to discuss either. I did not need his pity. I had just finished eating my breakfast when the doorbell rang. I was excited because Mandy was at the door and I had someone to spend my day with. I opened the door and the smile on my face died down. It was Francis and he had a sad smile on his face. I folded my hands and looked at him"Can I come in?" he said calmly. I was tempted to bang th
CONSTANTINE'S POVWhen I received the news of Eulalia's father's death, I was heartbroken. I couldn't believe a man with so much life had gone to the great beyond. He looked very healthy when I saw him last. Before I went to Italy I had visited him to ask for his blessings to marry his daughter. He gave me a stern warning"Eulalia is my only daughter and she is very precious to me. I don't want you to break her heart she's very soft on the inside no matter how hard she portrays herself to be. I know she loves you and you love her too so I'm begging you to please take care of her. I'm entrusting her in your care, her brothers will have their own families too and they might not always be there""I promise you sir that I will never hurt your daughter and I will always protect her and stand by her""Then you have my blessings""Thank you, sir, I won't disappoint you""You better not"Now that man was no more and he had so much life in him, he was always happy. I feel like a loser because
I spent two days in the hotel, Mandy came to visit me every day and she never came with anyone. I was happy she respected my wishes not to come with anyone. On the third day, I was ready to go back home and Mandy was there to pick me up. She ordered an Uber that took us home.I unlocked my door. It felt nice to be back home."Thank you Mandy for everything, thank you for standing by me in this hard time. I don't know what I would have done without you" I smiled at her"I must stand by you. You were there when I needed you and it's only right I do the same. I'll be on my way now, Peter is waiting for me and I have to go to work""Okay, thank you once again. I'll stop by the house later""Sure. If your phone rings please pick up, I don't want your brothers blasting my phone up""Yes, mum" we started laughing. It felt nice to laugh this hard "I promise to pick up" we hugged each other and she left. I locked the door and put on the television, they were showing After and they were halfway
After my father was laid to rest, my brothers pleaded with me to stay a while in the house before going back to my house but I did not agree. I had already planned to go home after my father was laid to rest, but I didn't want to spend time with my brothers. I was not going to listen to any of them. The only person I ever listened to was dead and gone. I was much angry with myself as I was angry with Francis and Gabe. I was angry with Gabe because he didn't listen to my father and Francis was the main cause of my father's death. If only he had not done what he did, I wouldn't have come home ranting like a mad woman. I just needed somebody to blame for my father's death.If only I had left when I said my mind, my father would not have been six feet under. If only could not bring my father back, he was gone forever and I was never going to see him again probably till I die. My father was my rock, my adviser, my father, my everything. He has been the one taking care of us for a very lon
Death sucks.Numb.That was how I felt as I sat in one of the wooden chairs, I'm not sure when people began to fill the empty seats. Mandy was by my side giving me words of assurance as I continued crying. They ask me how I'm doing, I was so calm and they were worried.I was thankful she was here. She had been my backbone since last week my father died. With her by my side, I was able to get through the week without trying to do anything rash. When the priest stands by the casket with his Bible in his hands. As the priest, began to speak I'm consumed by the last moments.I recalled some moments I spent with my father as a little girl"Daddy" five-year-old me ran to my father"Hey, my little princess," he said lifting me onto his lap"Daddy, I met a new boy at school today. His name is Adrian""Really?""Yes""Tell me what happened with Adrian""He came to school for the first time and he was my sitting partner. He offered me some chocolates and I took them. They were really sweet""Di
"Dad, please open your eyes" I cried while they were carrying him into the ambulanceI couldn't help but think this was my fault. I won't be able to forgive myself if anything happened to my father. He was the only parental figure in my life.I entered the ambulance with them as they tried to resuscitate my father, and an oxygen mask was placed on his nose.When we got to the hospital, there was already a stretcher waiting to carry him inside. They placed him on a drip as they carried him to the emergency room. I wanted to follow them inside but the nurses stopped me and said it was out of bounds. My brother held me as I sobbed"Dad, please don't leave us""He's going to be fine, they are attending to him now" my brother tried consoling me"How sure are you he's going to be fine. This has never happened before""The nurses assured me everything was going to be fine""This is all my fault, I shouldn't have come back home. If I hadn't come home this wouldn't have happened""Don't blame
