Chapter One

"No dad, I have to- okay. Yes. Okay, I- Yes dad,", I hastily checked my watch. I'm in a rush to get to Beetle Ports headquarters and dad isn't letting me off the phone, "Dad listen, I have to- ""I'm serious Aurora, don't screw this up. Your mother and I both expect big things from you. Think of all- "I sigh into the phone; I regret telling him that I got the job. My heels clack on the ground as I speed along the city pathways."I've got to go dad.", I say as I hang up and round the last corner to the building.My watch says seven-forty-five, which means I'm early, but I wouldn't cut it any closer. Being tardy is professional, being early is respectable.Today I'm wearing a sleek black skirt, a cream satin blouse, and black leather stilettos. Perfectly simple. Classy.Ms. Bailey greets me at the door, legs straight and hands held in the front. She's a striking woman but not because of her features. She's striking because she stares at you as if she knows everything. As if you couldn'

Chapter Two

My second week at Beetle Ports Headquarters begins with a bang. This week we are preparing for a celebratory charity event on Sunday, and everyone is in a frenzy. Ms. Bailey is barking orders at me from eight A.M. Two hours after home time, multitudes of people rush in and out of Ms. Bailey's office all day, leaving me either glued to my desk or running through floors. By Monday night, my high heels had burned blisters into my feet. But I'm back at it again Tuesday morning bright and early, organising group after group to participate in the event."Hello, Beetle Ports Headquarters. Aurora speaking.""Hello, this is Aurora from Beetle Ports, am I speaking to Johnathon?""Hello, this is Beetle from Aurora Ports headquar- Sorry. This is Aurora from- "Ms. Bailey is a sharp woman, extremely efficient at best, curt at worst."Today, Mr. Jameson is meeting us to review his potential investments. He always has horrible timing, don't fret. He is allergic to dust, bees, pollen, and... perfume,

Chapter Three

I wake up Monday morning with my alarm spitting at me. I'd gone to bed around one in the morning last night and now I have to suffer the consequences of that. Groggily, I rise out of bed then leave for my jog, eat, shower and head for work.It's comforting to see everyone else is crawling around like Zombies too. I pick up a coffee for Ms. Bailey and I, knowing we'll need it, and trudge to the elevator.Ms. Bailey sits at her desk looking as fresh as a daisy, though staying as late as I did last night. I offer her the coffee which she politely refuses.I don't complain, I'm already halfway through mine. Another won't hurt.I'm fumbly all day, making little mistakes constantly. Ms. Bailey doesn't confront me about it, but I can tell she's caught on and it stresses me."Aurora.", she calls from her office.I'm glad for the distraction, I've been fighting to keep my eyes open for an hour and a half."Yes Ms. Bailey?", I respond, stepping into her office."There is a major shipment com

Chapter Four

"Ro Ro, that's pretty cool.", Helly hums, twirling Daisy around by the tips of her fingers.I chuckle, "Thanks. I'm very tired.""You should become an investigator, ratting evil people and stuff.", Daisy chimes in, twirling again.After missing Friday dinner, my girls called an emergency meeting at Helly's place. Unfortunately, Eva couldn't make it, she's on a hot date with her boyfriend of the week."You'd make a great cop.", Helly laughs, shimmying her hips to the music.I faux glare at her, "Now, what's that supposed to mean?"[] [] []"Aurora.", Ms. Bailey greets standing from my desk as I enter our floor."Good morning Ms.Bailey,", I reply, handing her a coffee, "Did you sleep well?""Yes. Thank you,", She says, taking it and placing it down. She takes a breath. "Aurora. I reviewed your findings on the lost shipments and brought it to the attention our insurance staff. We're scheduled to meet them in an hour. Please prepare a presentation."Four men sit in front of me, including

Chapter Five

It's hard not to rush to Ms. Bailey Monday morning and blubber out everything that I have seen. I couldn't have helped myself. Sunday night I had been rotting wondering how the situation with Mr. Menni had turned out, I couldn't have stopped myself from committing to a quick search of 'Beetle Ports - Menni - Smuggling' and I was right! Well, I think I was right... The article was vague to say the least. But I'm pretty sure I'm right!As I sit at my desk, I can't help but glance at Ms. Bailey. She must know. Surely, she must know. But if she does, she doesn't give anything away.I slump in my chair. What fun is catching a villain if I don't get to brag about it. The day only lessens in excitement from then on. I make phone calls and fill out paperwork, but I don't get the excitement of being called into Ms. Bailey's office. I travel to the floors below, go get coffee, but I don't get to visit the top floor. By the end of the day, I'm dreary and bored. Tuesday's no better but Wednesday

Chapter Six

"Dad, I've really gotta go- ""Aurora, I'm coming down with Uncle Will next week. I- ""No! I mean-, sorry. No dad you can't.", I sigh.Three years ago, Uncle Will lost his job. He's been sitting lazy ever since. My dad has always had patience for him, being his brother apparently meant unconditional funding. I, being the main source of income in my family, am expected to help.Dad sighs also. There's a tense silence through the phone.My mother has a similar viewpoint to me. She's realistic. She understands my father's want to help his brother, but she also knows that Uncle Will is greedy and prone to entitled behaviour. Unfortunately, she's much softer, much kinder than me. She lacks the courage to stand up to my father and romanticizes his outwardly stubborn nature. So, I've been burdened by my mother's morality and my father's stubbornness."Aurora. One more chance, he won't blow it.", Dad sighs.I close my eyes. One more chance."Okay.", I whisper.[] [] []"No!", All of my frien

Chapter Seven

"Flores, you gotta' be kidding.", Mr. Campbell incredulously laughs, white gum sitting on his tongue. Though middle aged, he'd be handsome if he ever fully opened his eyes.Ms. Bailey said I was to handle Mr. Campbell the same way she does, and I'm trying but it's easier said than done. I sound like an entitled brat threatening him through someone else's name."Just- ", I sigh, "Will you have the information by this afternoon?"Mr. Campbell eyes me and I harden my eyes."You're not very good at threats kiddo,", he grits out, chuckling at me as he chews away, "Not scary enough."I deadpan him, "Well I can call down Ms. Bailey, maybe she'll be better."We glare at each other.He puffs out an annoyed breath before rolling his eyes, "Come see me at two."[] [] []"Aurora.", Ms. Bailey greets as I exit the elevator, "Let's talk in my office."Neither of us sit as she speaks, "Jack?", she questions."He'll be done by two.""Good,", she mutters, reaching for a folder on her desk, "Take this

Chapter Eight

I'm on plane to the Southern Coast today, Mr. Scott organised this plane for me. I'm worried the plane is going to fall out of the sky from the burden of my suitcase, but a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do.It's Friday eight o'clock, which means it's nine at my destination. I'm scheduled to leave the plane in an hour, and when I get off, a driver will be waiting to take me to a hotel. When I arrive at the hotel, eleven o'clock Southern Coast time, I take a moment to gaze at the building. I've seen it so many times growing up, but I've never fully appreciated it. The Southern coast isn't a city, it's a large town that stretches along the beach, so the hotel isn't huge; it's old with beautifully crafted beams and decorated roofing lining the top of it, like my childhood home. I breathe in that familiar salty air before a man takes my bags and helps me to my room.My guess is that if the Southern Docks are anything like the Eastern Ones, Mr. Scott will be staying above the Dock in

Chapter Nine

I don't feel like going to the wine tasting event. After last night- whatever that was -I doubt I'll ever be able to look Mr. Scott in the eye again.My dreamy yellow dress stares at me from my bed and I sigh. A car is scheduled to pick me up in twenty minutes and I'm sitting here in a towel freshly showered and completely unprepared. Last night's ordeal is eating at me, more than I could've prepared myself for. Does this mean Mr. Scott has feelings for me? If so, why did he push me away?I smooth out my frown and sigh. Maybe wine won't be too bad.[] [] []I can't believe I only gave myself twenty minutes to get ready! My hair is mostly dried, I've got about a drop of makeup on, I'm putting my shoes on in the car and I'm late. I already know the building we're going to, it's the best winery nearby, which isn't saying much. My dad took me there when I turned of age for drinking. It's a little far out, thirty minutes or so directly north from the coast. When we arrive, I see that it ha
