"What did you say?” 

Mike pretended not to have heard the young lady sitting across from his desk. 

“I said, I’m sorry, but I will not be taking the promotion offer. I cannot.” She told him.

 “Tell me why.” He demanded.

“I don’t think I’m obligated to give a reason, sir,” She snapped and Mike grimaced.

“Well, oblige me my dear Liza.” He said with a sugar coated angry smile. 

“This is outrageous, sir. I believe it’s my right to accept or reject an offer from the company and as far as this offer is concerned, I’m rejecting it. There are many others in this office that will jump at such an opportunity.” She told him. 

“But not you right?” He asked again just to be sure he heard her well.

  • My Boss, My Boyfriend   Chapter Eight - At the end of the day, Lust is nothing but a bitch...

    Running to the Ladies washroom, Liza tried to calm her beating heart. She honestly couldn’t believe she just kissed her boss. Mike! Mike of all people. Who would have thought? Who would have thought the man was a walking dynamite waiting to explode? Touching her sensitive lips, she stared into space as she thought of their kiss again and again. But seeing that even the memory was enough to make her weak below the knees, she quickly snapped out of it. Wetting her face with water to calm her nerves, she wiped her face with a toilet napkin before slowly making her way to her desk. But Liza soon found out that getting rid of the memory wasn’t as easy as she thought and she gave a small groan when she found herself making a mistake for the fifth time in five

    It was after five in the evening and Liza should have been out of the office twenty minutes ago but for the printing she had to finish and drop on Stella's desk for tomorrow’s meeting. But thanks to God, she’s finally done and can be out of the office in a minute. But just as she was grabbing her purse to make a dash for the door, the door to the boss’s office opened and in strolled Mike with his usual leisure walk. “Done for the day?” He asked. “Hmm, yes sir.” She answered. “Oh good. I was just leaving also. Mind if I walk you to your car?” He asked. “My car?” She repeated foolishly. “Yes, since my car is parked beside it.” “Oh, please, go ahead. I will be fine to walk to the car park alone”. She said with a fake smile. “I know you would be

    Wondering what just happened, Liza kept staring at the door in which Mike just went through.Obviously, he was in a bad mood, she thought.Going back to her desk, she remembered the intense look on his face while he was staring her down and how she had almost allowed him to kiss her, again.But now, not in his office, but the office lobby where anybody could see them. Good grief!What’s Mike thinking of?She honestly doesn’t understand the man again.Maybe it’s best she resigns from the office.For her peace of mind!But, with her plans of getting married, where is she going to get another job soon?She knew she was good and while Mike and Stella would not refuse her a recommendation letter, she couldn’t guarante

    Shocked, Liza raised her hand to her lips in fear, expecting retaliation.But, after staring at her in astonishment, Mike only gave a laugh while rubbing his left cheek that’s imprinted with red marks already.“Hmm, beneath that cool exterior, lurks a fire brand. Interesting! Mind you, you’re the first woman to raise her hand at me. And Next time, I might not be so tolerant. I only forgave you now because I might have provoked it. In future, if you want to show me your temper, make it in the bedroom. Okay?” He told her.“Beast.” She cried angrily as she made an attempt to put her clothes in order.“A beast that just gave you the best orgasm of your life with just his mouth and finger. Remember that when you’re with your so-called Fiancé.” He reminded her softly.“I hat

    Deciding it’s best not to scare her again, Mike coughed and gave her a small smile of assurance.“Hmmm, can I get a cup of coffee? I didn’t get my usual dose of coffee before leaving the office.” He explained softly.Shocked by this request, Liza nodded slowly. “Of...of course. Give me some minutes.” She told him while walking to the kitchen.Releasing his breath in a whoosh, Mike gave himself thumbs up on how that went well. Now, all he has to do is let her know she is being childish and to resume back to work tomorrow. Voila, she will see sense and all will be well with his world. That should be easy to do. Right?Coming back to the room with the coffee on a saucer, she gave him the cup of coffee, prepared, exactly the way he loved it. Smiling, Mike took a sip appreciatively before dropping the cup.Then before

  • My Boss, My Boyfriend   Chapter Thirteen - It's possible to feel betrayed, even without a reason...

    Driving back to the office, Mike reflected on what just happened at Liza’s place. He honestly couldn’t believe he almost had his way with her, in her living room, and on the carpet of all things. He would like to think he would have put a stop to things before it went further, but he honestly couldn’t deceive himself. He knew he was beyond redemption immediately he put his mouth on Liza’s honey pot to taste. How she tasted like Heaven and chocolate, he never wanted to stop. Stop he did! Because for a reason, she decided to freeze him off. And no matter how much he wanted to pretend, Mike just couldn’t pretend it didn’t hurt. If he should allow himself to ponder on what he’s feeling, then he would say it’s something close to betrayal and sadness. The sadness he could understand. Who would not be sad after tasting heaven and getting turned down? Of course he was sad.

    “Oh no, not again Stella. I’m not giving you a raise and that's final.” Mike told her in laughter as Stella gave a mock woebegone expression. “Hmm, no raise! Okay Mike, I will continue being your slave. But one day, the competition might come for me and then?” She told him slyly and Mike laughed once again. That’s another thing, apart from being his competent secretary, Stella has a good dose of humour and she was one of the few he could count on. Having worked with him for several years, Mike did trust her judgments and she had never been wrong whenever he asked her opinion on a sensitive matter, like he was doing now. “So tell me dear Mike, what is that thing you wish to ask me?” She said. “Well, having gotten a rejection from Liza, I’m confused at whom to interview for the position.” “Well, we can start by checking for your expectatio

    Having decided it’s best to forget the incident that took place at her flat and move on, Liza realised it would be for her own good to resume work the following day. She knew for a fact Mike didn’t make empty threats, and she wasn’t ready for another confrontation should he decide to come back for another visit. So, here she is, walking into her office the next day with trepidation and a prayer not to barge into Mike or any of the staff members. She really doesn’t want to answer any curious questions about her supposed health. But of course, luck wasn’t on her side as the first person she saw upon entering her office was Stella. Her kind but inquisitive boss. “Oh, there you are dear. How are you feeling now? I wasn’t expecting to see you so soon after the call we received yesterday.” She told her. “Good morning Stella! Thank you fo

    A good ending for all… ****** Two weeks Later, Mike sent a bunch of flowers to Tom’s room at the hospital, having heard he was responding to treatment and would soon be discharged. He had also heard that with the help of his father’s team, his father was flown to London to be with his son at his critical moment. Mike felt for them but he knew they would get through it and survive together. That’s just life! It will throw you but if you are willing to stand again, everything will work out. Liza had heard him on the phone when he was ordering for the flowers and she had thought the flowers were to wish Tom a quick recovery and to also cheer him up. But only Mike knew that the real reason he sent the beautiful bunch of flowers was to silently thank Tom for indirectly bringing them back together. By pointing out some home truths to Liza, he made her see what she should have known, ‘That Mike would always be there for her’. For that alone, it shows the guy had some redeeming trait

    We all deserve genuine love… ****** For long moments, they looked into each other’s eyes with trusting eyes that suddenly turned passionate. Mike’s eyes flared with a knowing light and Liza gave an unconscious gasp. Mike grinned as he lightly pushed her to continue walking to the car! “You always seem to be surprised every time I make my love and passion obvious, why?” He had always wanted to ask her. “I don’t know, Mike. Maybe because I never truly believed you could really love me, so I am always surprised when I see the evidence of it.” She admitted softly. Mike did not say anything to that as he opened the door for her to go in. Then he circled the car to join her and only then did he turn to look at her. “But that’s bullshit, babe. I have been showing you nothing but my love since we started dating.” Mike reminded her. “I know, Mike, but I guess it was just hard for me to believe and understand. I mean, I grew up without knowing much love, so how would I have recognized i

    Give an option of doubt…*****Putting the phone back into his pocket, Mike turned to go back to Liza and that was when he saw her, watching him with a dazed look.“You heard everything, right?” Tiredly, he asked her, unable to hide it again.Liza nodded slowly.“I am sorry, Liza, but it is not what you think. I can explain, okay?” Mike was worried she might misunderstand.Again, Liza nodded slowly.“I am sure you have a reasonable explanation Mike and I promise to listen without judging you.” Liza acknowledged softly.Relieved, Mike nodded as he walked to her.“Thank you. I promise to tell you everything without hiding a word.” He embraced her soft body to him, knowing that he needed the warmth.Liza accepted his words and actions with a smile as she returned his embrace.******The following morning, Liza and Mike walked out of the old building with Martha who was holding tightly to the purple eyed, immensely bruised Tom.His left eyes were almost closed and Liza feared he might nev

    Be honest with your loved ones… ******* What happened the next moment was so sudden, Mike was sure he was about to have a heart failure. “Oh my God—Oh my God—-Oh my God.” Liza kept crying. Recovering himself, Mike quickly left his seat to hold onto her shoulders. “Liza? Are you okay? Talk to me.” He saw the distressful emotion she was in and he could not bear it. It’s a fact that whatever affected Liza would get to Mike. Her joy and sadness were equally part of him. “I totally forgot, Mike. I did not mean to, but I forgot. I am a bad person. A very bad evil lady.” She cried softly while holding onto him. “Whatever it is Liza, we will get through it together, but I will not accept any disparaging word on your person. You are not a bad person and neither are you evil. So right now, I want you to take a deep breath and tell me what this is all about.” A little bit calmed by Mike’s reasonable voice, Liza took a calming breath. “It’s Tom, Mike, I totally forgot about him.” Liza exp

    Apologies don't make you less of a man… **** Helping each other to dress up four hours later after a short nap on his office sofa bed, Liza sent a smug smile across to Mike. “You need to apologise to your staff Mike, they did not deserve the treatments you have been melting out on them.” Liza pointed out and Mike groaned. He did not have to ask Liza, he should have known Stella would tell her all about it. “I am serious, Mike, you need to apologise. Just imagine if any of your staff is acting unprofessional just because they are going through a lot at home. Would you accept that, even if you try to be understanding towards their plight?” Liza demanded to know. “I am the boss, Liza, it is different.” He pointed out arrogantly, trying to cover up. but he knew she was right. ‘That’s the thing about Liza, she was always almost right.’ He thought fondly with another groan. “No Mike, there is nothing different about it. They are humans and if you are truly the man I know you to be, I

    A forgiving spirit is a kind one…*******Typing furiously away at her system while equally muttering furiously to herself, Stella was not aware of the person at her desk until she heard a chuckle which made her jump in fright.“Is the building on fire or what?” Liza asked with an amused gaze while watching the different emotions flashing across the face of her former senior colleague.“Liza Stanford, you scared me.” Stella cried, turning her full glare on the innocent Liza.“Uh oh wow, take it easy with the glare okay? I’m innocent of whatever the crime was.” Chuckling, she raised her hands in mock surrender.Stella snorted, unimpressed.Innocent her foot! Whatever their boss was going through, Stella knew Liza had a hand in it and even if it’s not in Stella’s place to say it out loud, she just hoped they could settle whatever it was between them.Having been married for several years now, she knew it was not always smooth sailing between couples.Just look at her and her husband Leo

    Correct your mistakes once you know it… ******At the other end, Liza kept staring at the silent phone in her hand. Mike had dropped the call. Without telling her it was a joke. Which meant that truly, he was pushing for a divorce? ‘No way! Over my dead body.’ She swore violently as she ran to the bathroom. Almost tearing off the clothes on her body, she hurriedly lathered the washing clothes with soap as she switched on the shower, full blast. Dressing with haste, five minutes later, Liza was walking down the stairs, smartly dressed in one of her office clothes. But before she could cover the last step, one of the maids walked in from the hallway to greet her respectfully. “Good afternoon, Mrs. Stanford.” “Good afternoon Mary. I am on my way out and I might not be back for a while.” She said in a distracted tone while checking her bag to make certain she had all she wanted. “Oh okay Madam, but I was just on my way upstairs to tell you there is a visitor at the door asking fo

    A disappointed heart is always heavy…****Glaring fiercely at the door of his office, willing any of his staff to walk through the door so he could at least have an excuse to vent his frustrations, his eyes caught the favourite coffee mug on his table and picking it up, he threw it violently at the wall and the smashing sound gave him a momentary satisfaction.At that exact moment, the Head of Sales Department was on his way to discuss the latest marketing pitch with the boss after deciding to brave the lion’s then. Even his colleagues had teased him when he casually told them he was in to see the boss.There had been teasing calls about his head and they had all laughed, saying by the time Mike Stanford was done blasting him off, his considered small head would become bigger as it rolled on the floor. Someone had even said he was sure he would come out without his tongue in his mouth.Of course, he had scoffed disdainfully, not giving them the chance to see his fear.Only the Head o

    The surprise package…*****Liza dismissed the maid and, turning with a determined step, she hurriedly walked to the door just as the person pressed the bell again. Liza groaned ferociously as she pulled the chain from the back of the door.“Who the hell are you that you want to bring down the whole house just to get what you want?” Liza blasted the person with furious eyes even before the door was completely open.The short bald man that was standing at the door blinked owlishly up at her, surprised by the unexpected attack.“I—I didn’t--hmm aha…” The man stopped coughing slightly but when he took a little glance up, he saw Liza was still furious, so he dropped his eyes to try again.“I—I’m—sorry madam. I was just trying to do my job.” He stammered in a voice that was a bit scared.Liza glared the more upon hearing this silly talk. “Excuse me? You mean your job is to disturb my peace?” “No—No—of—course not, madam. I was just trying to get the attention of whoever is in the house.” H
