Could I be? Or is it the stress? I wash my face and brush my teeth again. The police escort is here to take me to the hospital. I get to the hospital and Grant is signing his release papers to leave. “We need to stop at the pharmacy. I need to get some gauze to change the dressing on my hand." Grant replied.“Umm, yeah I need to stop and get something as well.” I said. “Oh? What?” Grant said. “Well.. I ah.. Gosh this is so not the time, and so hard to say.” I stuttered. “Darling what’s wrong?” Grant asked. “Well I thought it was nerves, but I’m not sure..” I replied.“Not sure about what?” Grant asked. “I’ve been getting nauseous. And I’ve thrown up a few times.” I explained. “Something you ate?” Grant asked. “No, I don't think so.” I denied. “Stomach bug?” Grant asked. “No.” I replied.. “I don’t understand?” Grant was confused. “I think I might be pregnant.” I blurted. “Say something please?” I begged. “I’m just caught by surprise. I mean I know due to the situation th
New Beginnings. Isabel is a thirty-year-old accountant working for a company called H.J. Services, Inc. She's been a valued employee here straight out of college. Mr. Jackson, or Hugh, says she's his right-hand gal. For seven years she has worked her butt off and she knows and loves her job well. She has a boyfriend named Jesse who's five years older than her. They've been dating for a year. Jesse is a CEO of his dad's company. They live in Virginia. And this her story. "Reservation is for 7pm, I'll pick you up at 6pm." Jesse orders. "That's cutting it way too close. You know I don't even get off work until 5pm." She replies. "Well, if as CEO I can manage it, you should be able to as well." Jesse retorts. "Yes, but my dad doesn't own my company." She replies. "I'm not having this conversation again." Jesse retorts. "I'm just saying that a little advanced notice would be nice." She huffs. "I gotta go. See you at 6, and wear that black dress I love." He demands. "See you at si
"Sir, I'll take the job." She replies."Excellent. How did Jesse take it?" He asks."Let's just say he's no longer in the picture. So, he has no say so. And not because of the job." She explains."Well anyway, I'm pleased you're taking the job." He replies.Last night he came to her apartment. She refused to let him in. He finally left. He called her work phone today multiple times; she sent it to voicemail. She let the apartment manager know about her trip. She's having her mail forwarded to the new place. It's Friday and she's all packed and at the airport."Isobel wait!" Jessee hollers."No." She replies."Just hear me out, 5 minutes please? After a year you owe me that much Isabel." He pleads"Are you for real? After what you did, I don't owe you the time of day. But I am curious so I will graciously give you 5 minutes. Because I want to know why you cheated on me!" She demands."It was just sex. Sometimes I like it really rough and hard, and you're not the type I can do that with
"Hugh darling, it's Stephanie. We're all here in the conference room and I'm putting you on speakerphone." Mrs. Raines replies. I give her a stern look. That is so unprofessional. That's a problem that will be addressed. Respect and professionalism! "Mrs. Raines. So, by now I'm sure you know why I've sent Miss Gilliam there. She has full firing, hiring, and rules authority. Bottom line, what she says, goes! That includes anything and everyone including you Mrs. Raines. Have I made myself clear?" Hugh asks. No one says anything. "I believe the correct response is "yes sir Mr. Jackson"." I reply. Everyone except Mrs. Raines answers. Everyone but Mrs. Raines repeats it. "Good glad we are clear on that. Good day." Hugh Jackson replies. "I'll be starting interviews immediately. Mrs. Raines you're up first in 15 minutes. Mr. Matthews my office please." I order. "Yes Miss Gilliam." Max replied. "So, I asked you in here as I want you to stay in my office during all the interviews. As
ADAM'S POINT OF VIEW Wow where's she going looking like that? Every time I see her, I'm more intrigued by her. I'm just trying to find the perfect way to meet her officially. But I'm turning into a stalker. I can't go in that club. I'd be recognized. Ok this is crazy. I’m just going to her work. After all I do have a legitimate reason to. END OF ADAM'S POINT OF VIEW "Wow you're hot! All the guys are going to ignore me tonight." Angel smiles. "Thanks, but I'm sure you'll have your fair share." I reply. "Look at the office it's strictly business. But away, call me Isabel." I explain. "Let's get our drink on!" Max replies. "I second that!" I reply. We find a table and order drinks. A couple girls go dance. I need some liquid courage first. An hour later I'm on the dance floor with the girls. When a pair of arms wrap around me just as a slow song comes on. "Miss me?" Jesse asks. "Are you kidding me? Get your damn hands off me! You got some nerve." I demand. "Hi ladies. I'm Izzy
"Do you have a car here?" I ask. "No." He replies. "Fine, we can take mine." I reply. When the valet brought my car to us, his eyes got big. "Can I drive." He asks. "No." I refuse. We get to my condo and he's all over me soon as we get in the elevator. I never said he wasn't great. He does have a hot sexy body. "Down boy." I order. "You're so hot telling me what to do." He replies. We finally walk into my condo and I lock the door. I walk to the bedroom. I pull my dress off over my head and throw it in the floor. Then remove my bra then panties. "Someone has too many clothes on. I think you need to lose the clothes." I order. He finally starts taking his clothes off as fast as he can. "I think I was promised to be shown how bad and hard you want me?" I question. "Hell yes." He answers. He grabs me and grinds his arousal against me hard. He grabs my breasts then my butt. He picks me up and throws me on the bed. "I'm still waiting." I reply. "I want to enjoy this, it's
"Mr. Lewis it's a pleasure to meet you. I'm Miss Gilliam. Please come into my office." I reply. "Miss Gilliam the pleasure is all mine." Adam Lewis replies. "Ms. Smith, please no calls or visitors, as I'm with a potential client." I tell the receptionist. "Yes Miss Gilliam." Angel replies. I go in and close the door. I walk around and sit in my chair. He's already sitting. I turn my cell phone off. "So how can I help you?" I ask. "Well, I heard your company was under new management and came to check it out. I've been hearing good things and was curious." Adam explains. "I am very pleased to hear that. I know you were a client and then left us. Can I ask why?" I ask. "I really don't know. That was all my managers doing. At that time, I wasn't involved. And let's just say I now take more interest in my money." He replies. "Well, that's a very wise decision. I can tell you I'm here to make this office the best around. The best customer service, the best financial advice, and the
"Mr. Jackson I'm sorry to bother you but I have a situation I need your advice." I explain. "Shoot." He replies. "Well, it seems Mr. Adam Lewis wants me to go out with him to convince him to hire us back. I know the policy about dating clients. But he's being very persistent." I explain. "Yes, dear that's normally the case. But my Cali clients are a different story. They expect to be wined and dined. Just do whatever you're comfortable with. You're single right?" He asks. "Yes sir." I reply. "I don't have to tell you what a huge client he would be? But I don't want to force you into anything. I trust you to handle it with what you are comfortable with. Good night." He replies. "Goodnight, sir." I reply. Man, I'm in so much trouble. The attraction is more than I've ever felt. Maybe because he's famous? I do want him badly. My cell rings. "Hello baby. Have a nice dinner?" Jesse asks. "How do you, wait I had you blocked!" I demand. "How are you calling me?" "Remember our last l
