“I don’t mix business with pleasure. Ever” that was the first thing he said to me. Marcus Wayne, he was arrogant, a playboy, handsome as the day is long, one of the most eligible bachelors in the city and also my boss so I didn’t mind. But that didn’t stop me from crushing on him, falling for him and ultimately falling into his bed. It was one night only, or so I thought, because now I’m pregnant and he wont let me go. One problem, I’m not sure I want him to.

CHAPTER 1

I open my eyes and I’m first met with the bright early morning sun. I lift a palm and run it over my face to clear my eye sight before looking around. The unfamiliar environment startles me but what really causes an alarm and a sudden wild beating of my heart in my chest, is the man who lies on the bed with me. A very familiar man whose thick strong arm also happens to be wrapped around my waist. This is so bad… This is really, incredibly bad. I’m naked, and my boss Marcus Wayne is similar naked and laying beside me in a deep sleep. To ensure I don’t startle him awake, I arise slowly from my laying position on the bed and use two fingers, my pointy finger and thumb to remove his heavy arm that is possessively curved around my waist. I throw the blanket covering us and stand from the bed. Yes, I am indeed fully naked. As I start to panic at the insanity of it all, my memories from last night floods into my mind. Me and Marcus going on a gala together Marcus heavy gaze roaming a

CHAPTER 2

Fifteen hours earlier… I run the mascara brush over my eyelashes one last time before deciding my makeup is perfect enough. Stepping back from the vanity, I look at my profile in the mirror in front of me. Hair, check. Shoes, check. My dress, perfect. My phone pings with a text notification causing me to jump with nervousness. Tonight, my boss, Marcus Wayne, also the CEO of Wayne Technologies, is giving me a ride to the award ceremony we are both attending. He, as a nominee, and me as his ever-present secretary. I read the text message that just came into my phone and indeed, it is from Marcus instructing me to go downstairs in his usual commanding tone. Knowing how impatient he is and not wanting to be at the receiving end of his infamous scowl, I hurriedly grab my tiny clutch purse and leave my apartment to meet him outside. The moment I step outside of my apartment building, I see the familiar black Bentley belonging to my boss and his driver is standing outside and holdi

CHAPTER 3

Penelope’s POV When we arrive at the venue for the award ceremony, reporters and photographers immediately rush at us- or more like, at Marcus. Marcus who is the man of the hour, takes pictures with different people ranging from fellow billionaires like himself to female models and celebrities all vying for his attention. I take my position far away from the drama. The first and last time I had tried to maintain my position beside Marcus as his secretary during a similar event three years ago, I had been elbowed in the eye by a desperate woman who wanted to pull Marcus into a tight embrace. Since then, I have always kept my distance from Marcus and his raging fans. After the meet and greet at the red carpet ends, Marcus and I are led inside the hall by a staff for the ceremony. As expected, Marcus wins the award for Entrepreneur of the Year and I am genuinely happy for him. In my head, I joke about how I should get a mini award for being such an awesome secretary. Marcu

CHAPTER 4

It’s been five minutes since I received a curt text message from my boss ordering me to come and meet him at the brunch area of the hotel. I walk to the venue on shaky legs, from nervousness and tiredness. He really did a number on me last night and from how long he slept, I on him as well. I would celebrate but I feel like I am walking to my execution as I step into the brunch hall. I see Marcus sitting ahead with an empty chair in front of him on the other side of the table where uncountable brunch delicacies have been arranged. The instant hunger I feel in my stomach urges me to walk forward although my brain warns me to run away. I had sex with my strict-as-hell boss not up to twelve hours ago and I’m about to pay the price. I withhold tears as I approach the table and take a seat quietly. “Good morning sir” I greet submissively. Should I apologize or beg? I don’t get to decide because Marcus ignores my greeting and shocks me with his first words. “Do you know who I

CHAPTER 5

It has been more than a month since I woke up in bed with my boss. Ever since that day, I have tried all means to ensure sure that I do nothing or say anything that would give Marcus any inclination that the girl he slept with the night of his award ceremony was none other than his most dedicated secretary, me.So far so good, I would say I have one a pretty good job of it, just a little lie here and a little denial there and Marcus is none the wiser.It was strange that he had no memory of it. Sometimes I catch myself contemplating about it, the good and the bad. Bad because I wanted him to remember me. what he said to me, what we did. That it was my body which gave him so much pleasure he blacked out afterwards, so yeah, its sucked not being remembered.And good because I get to keep my job. He’d have fired my ass by now.Its terrible.I’ve done all I can do forget it.I’ve tried to convince myself it couldn’t possibly be good as was making it out to be, we were both drunk for goodne

CHAPTER 6

MARCUS“I see you deployed your time management skills in writing the report” I speak with dry sarcasm without even raising my head to look at Penelope as she enters and shuts the door to my office.When she remains silent, I am forced to move my gaze from my computer screen to my silent secretary.“Nothing to say for yourself?” I ask after noticing the blank look on her face. Inwardly I am tempted to laugh, not because anything is actually funny but because if it were anyone else keeping silent and not apologizing while getting scolded by their boss, they would loose their jobs within the hour, but there is little to nothing Penelope can do to make me fire her and I’m sure she knows this. Finally, she decides to grace me with her voice and speaks, “I wanted to make sure the report was perfect. And I didn’t think I was under a deadline.” She shrugs nonchalantly and I have to resist the urge to roll my eyes in exasperation, but that would only encourage her. The girl likes to test my p

CHAPTER 7

A few days later, I’m rounding up the task Marcus saddled me with earlier this morning so that I can go to lunch with Will. I’m already late as we had agreed to meet up outside by the parking lot by 1 pm sharp but it’s already a few minutes after and I’m just now putting my desktop to sleep after emailing the report to Marcus so that I can leave. I just grab my wallet and turn to head to the elevator when it opens and Will steps out.Surprised, I smile at him, “Hey… you shouldn’t have bothered coming up, I was already heading to you, sorry” I tell him, feeling a bit bad for wasting his time.Will shrugs then gives me a side hug, and a quick kiss on my cheek“It’s fine. How are you doing? You look a bit tired” He asks with a concerned tone.I sigh. I am tired. I’ve been feeling exhausted since I woke up but it’s probably just work stress.I start to answer him but stop when the door to Marcus’s office opens and he strides out confidently. I notice a slight crease between his eyebrows wh

CHAPTER 8

“I’ve been feeling so off lately. I think I need to ask Mr. Wayne for a few days leave to recuperate” I massage the colon of my throat as I complain to my friend, Stacy. She came over to my cubicle about thirty minutes ago and we have been chatting or more like I’ve been listening while she has been giving me all the recent office gossip.Stacy chuckles, “I would make a joke about you being pregnant but we both know how impossible that idea is”I still, then give her a look, “Why is that impossible?” I’m not sure if I should be offended or not. Stacy cackles with laughter once more, about to make fun of me I’m sure. She says, “Because it’s been ages since you got some D” she returned giving my a knowing look.I snort with amusement, if only she knew how wrong she was. The last time I had sex was six weeks ago and it was with our CEO. But I’m not telling her that so instead I respond with, “How do you know I haven’t had sex in a while?” I’m quite interested in her answer but she doesn’

CHAPTER 9

As I stare deeply at the pregnancy test showing positive, a part of me is praying that a miracle happens and the result changes to negative while another part is rethinking my entire life choices.Where did it all go wrong? How would I handle this? I earn well enough as the executive secretary of one of the richest men in New York but in between handling my bills, paying off my student loans and my mother’s health care bill I barely have much in savings.So how would I be able to take care of a baby on my own? And telling Marcus is completely out of the question. He doesn’t even remember we had sex a few weeks ago. He won’t believe me and even if he does, I know fully well that he’ll fire me. Marcus Wayne doesn’t mix his business with his personal life.Still in deep thoughts of the troubling predicament that I am in, I don’t hear the sound of footsteps approaching the private toilet on the CEO floor until it is nearly too late.“Penelope Cruz, I know you’re in there. I saw you go in.

CHAPTER 10

I’m halfway asleep from tiredness after crying my eyes out for the past hour when the office telephone rings. I check and see the call is coming from Marcus. I’m tempted to ignore it. I don’t think I can deal with him right now. I’m way too vulnerable. But I know I’ll just get into trouble with him if I ignore his call so I grudgingly answer.“Hello-““In my office right now. Miss Cruz” He interrupts me with the order.Unable to help myself, I groan out loudly with frustration, he is so rude, no greeting or anything.“Am I bothering you, Miss Cruz?” He asks from the phone.Great. He heard my frustrated sign.I try to answer with a no, but he continues on. “Or maybe you’re getting tired of your job? Am I working you too hard?” He asks but I don’t deceive myself that his questions are because he cares, I hear the sarcasm clearly from a mile away. He is so confusing. Sometimes he is nice and other times he is a level ten asshole, like right now.I keep my analysis of his temperaments to m
