I slip out of my dress and tie my hair up in a pony. Is it just me or is it extra hot today? I was about to slip out of my underwear when I heard a knock on the front door. I wonder who that could be? It's 8 pm, I don't remember ordering anything? I pick up my robe from the bed and put it on.
I open the door to see Nayel standing there, the first two buttons of his shirt were undone, his hair was messy. I could tell he had run his hands through it one too many times and his jacket was rolled up in his hands. He looked exhausted. Our eyes meet and his face lights up.
"Hi" I smile at him.
"God am I happy to see you" Nayel smiles moving inside, grabbing my waist, and pulling me into a hug.
I rub his back gently, "Long day?" I whisper in his ear.
Nayel pulls away from the hug, still holding onto my waist, "I'm sorry for dropping in unannounced, I had a shite day and really wanted to see you" He lets out a sigh.
"Of course" I smile at him pressin

My slumber was interrupted by the alarm clock ringing in my ear instantly making me groan. I pull the covers over my head. Please shut up, I don't want to leave my bed today, Monday mornings are really the worse especially in the winters I just don't ever want to leave the comfort of my warm bed. I just want to go back to sleep.My alarm kept going off agitating me. Can you tell I'm not a morning person? I couldn't afford to be late on a Monday so I slowly roll out of bed and turn the alarm off. It was 7:39 am yet It was still pretty dark out. I decided against taking a warm shower as that would probably make me even lazier instead I pour myself a glass of juice before picking out an outfit.I put on a pair of black leg warmers then a pair of thick winter stockings. On top of that I wore a maroon high neck sweater dress that covered my calves a fell a few inches above my ankles and topped it with my favorite black coat and of course can't survive without my signature b
I swing my purse back and forth when the elevator door opens, inside were John and Blake two of the accountants and behind them was Winston. A smile appears on his face as our eyes meet."Hi, Maria" Blake smiles at me, his brown eyes crinkling at the corners."Hey, you guys good?" I look at the two of them stepping inside the elevator."Yeah, how big boss man doing?" John flashes me a cheeky grin."Oh, you know the same as always" I shrug moving behind them."His usual dick head self you mean?" Blake says and we all laugh."Yeah basically," I say standing next to Winston."Hi", He says in a warm tone."Hey, happy first day""Good to see a familiar face" Winston flashes a toothy grin at me showing off his perfect Harry Styles dipples."Do you not drive here?" Winston asks referring to why I got on the elevator from the first floor instead of the basement which was the parking lot."Oh I live 10 minutes from
Tonight was girls' night and by that, I mean me and my 4 best friends were hanging out in my apartment. Drinking cheap wine, baking, and cooking, and just chilling really. Because of our jobs, we aren't able to see each other as much as we used to back in college so we try to squeeze in time every other weekend to hang out.Right now Caroline and Heidi were in the kitchen icing the cupcakes we just made. Quinn, Willow, and I were in the living room watching sex in the city, the show not the pathetic movies."Maria, your phone keeps going off," Caro walks over to me handing me my phone.I furrow my eyebrows and stare at my screen, "Everything alright?" Willow raises an eyebrow at me."Yeah, I just have 8 missed calls from Mr. Nayel" Why is he calling me at 8 pm on a Saturday?"Your hot boss is calling you on a Saturday night, could only mean one thing" Heidi smirks shoving popcorn in her mouth. The other girls oo collectively at her comment.
After my blazing hot shower, I dried then straightened my hair. I did my usual minimal makeup but instead of lipstick, I put on some gloss. I decided to wear a beige oversized sweater, which had lantern sleeves with blue and white stripes on the sleeves. I put on my favorite pair of blue jeans and accessorized a bit with a necklace and gold earrings. It was 10:40, I just put my uggs on when my phone started ringing.I pick it up and see it's Nayel, "Hello?" I answer."I'm downstairs, please tell me you're awake" insincerity ringing in Nayel's voice."Yes, I'm ready, I'll be there in a minute," I say and hang up. I pick up my purse and check myself out once in the mirror. He said causual so I shrug to myself.He was right outside my building in his white Benz. A douchebag car for a douchebag, I smile at my own joke. I walked over to him and knock on the window, he looks up at me and unlocks the car.The car smelt like it was drenched in the David Be
I got home at 11 last night due to all the stupid traffic and all I wanted to do was take a day off today so badly but I can't on a Monday. I didn't even bother with my appearance today, I just put on whatever I could find that didn't need ironing and headed out of my apartment.I reach our floor to see that Nayel is not in yet so I leave his coffee at his desk and come back and sit down on mine. I didn't get much sleep last night, I kept tossing and turning in bed.I sigh as I rest my elbows on my desk and run my hands through my hair. I rub my face in exhaustion."We do not come to work to sleep Ms. Reynolds" I hear Nayel say in a stern voice as he approaches my desk.I flash him a forced smile which was basically my version of fuck you which I think he recognizes so he simply scowls and walks into his office.....I don't know if this is a good thing or bad but today was a very slow lazy day. On one hand, I could relax since I barely had
I tighten my seatbelt as the air hostess walks down the aisles to see if everyone is buckled in. We are currently on a plane heading to San Diego for a conference, we fly back later tonight.I was sitting in the middle seat with Winston on the aisle side and Nayel on the window seat. Three of our other colleagues, David, Jenna, and Haris were behind us. I was not looking forward to a 5-hour flight then straight to the conference and then back to another 5-hour flight. Luckily tomorrow is Saturday so at least we didn't have to worry about coming to work at 9 tomorrow.Not to mention flying while in full business attire, such a hassle. Everyone knows flying is only meant to be done in casual clothes and it's frustrating that we won't get time to change so we have to dress accordingly.I was wearing a black pantsuit with a white turtle neck top crop top underneath with high-waisted pants so it barely showed 2 inches off my stomach. Nayel was looking dashing as alwa
I was finishing up with the dishes when I heard my phone going off. I wipe my hands with a washcloth and pick it up. My brother Jared was calling me. I smile to myself as I press answer, "Hi loser, what did I do to receive a call from you?""Maria" Jared's tone instantly made me concerned. It was shaky."What happened? Are you okay? Are you in trouble?" I ask as the anxiety started rushing through me."It's dad," Jared's tone sounded uncertain, I wasn't able to get a grasp on how he was feeling.My heart dropped, "What happened? Is he okay?""He had a heart attack, he's fine he's alright. We're in the hospital" Jared fills me in.Tears started welling up in my eyes, "What happened?" I rush to my room pulling out a bag and hurriedly throwing some clothes along with some essential items in it."He was not taking his HCM pills regularly or consistently and then stress from work possibly that's what the doctors saying," Jared says.
I slip out of my dress and tie my hair up in a pony. Is it just me or is it extra hot today? I was about to slip out of my underwear when I heard a knock on the front door. I wonder who that could be? It's 8 pm, I don't remember ordering anything? I pick up my robe from the bed and put it on.I open the door to see Nayel standing there, the first two buttons of his shirt were undone, his hair was messy. I could tell he had run his hands through it one too many times and his jacket was rolled up in his hands. He looked exhausted. Our eyes meet and his face lights up."Hi" I smile at him."God am I happy to see you" Nayel smiles moving inside, grabbing my waist, and pulling me into a hug.I rub his back gently, "Long day?" I whisper in his ear.Nayel pulls away from the hug, still holding onto my waist, "I'm sorry for dropping in unannounced, I had a shite day and really wanted to see you" He lets out a sigh."Of course" I smile at him pressin
"These came from the Henderson account, I'm not sure if I should fax these to accounting?" I hand Nayel the documents I just received.Nayel furrows his eyebrows as his eyes scan the pages then he starts nodding, "Yeah there's a mistake on here, let me reach out to the Henderson's then I'll get back to you on this one""Alrighty," I nod."Do you want to have dinner at my place tonight? I can cook for you?" Nayel wiggles his eyebrows making me smile."Aw I would love too but my brother Jared is in town till tomorrow so I'm just planning to show him around, go somewhere nice for dinner""Oh that's nice" Nayel gets up from his seat and approaches me, he rests his hands on my hips, "I'd love to meet him if that's okay with you" Nayel smiles.My face lights up, "You'd want to meet him?""Of course" Nayel smiles making my heart melt, "Plus you've met my sister so I think this would make us even""Okay, we can have dinner at my place,
"Maria" I turn around to see Nayel poking his head out of his office, "I need to have a word with you," He says with a scowl, his tone professional."Yes, Mr. Nayel," I say getting up from my seat and following him inside his office.Almost immediately I'm pinned to Nayel's office door which he locks, trapping my body beneath his, "Calm down will you?" I giggle as Nayel thrusts his hips against mine."No, I will not" Nayel growls grabbing me by my neck pulling me into a kiss. I smile as I wrap my arms around his neck deepening the kiss."You are driving me crazy" Nayel grunts biting my lower lip making me gasp."Me? What did I do?" I asked furrowing my eyebrows.Nayel shakes his head, "You just drive me wild all the time" Nayel's eyes roam up and down my face.I tilt my head, "You're welcome?" I say rather confused.Nayel squeezes my hip, "How did I go 2 years without kissing you"I roll my eyes pushing Nayel off me, "Yo
I was laying on my stomach, the sheets lazily draped over my naked body as I was tracing Nayel's abs with my finger. I smile to myself feeling his body against my fingers."Enjoying yourself?" I look up to meet Nayel's eyes, he was smirking at me."Very much so" I bite my lower lip, sitting up on my knees onto the bed pulling the covers over my body as I then straddle his lap."My boyfriend is a sex god," I say wrapping my arms around his neck."I love when you call me that" Nayel groans squeezing my hips."Good" I smile playing with the hair on the back of his neck.I decided to switch positions again so I lean against Nayel's chest, laying on top of him, my head resting on his shoulder as he held me by my waist squeezing me gently."Tell me about your family," Nayel says suddenly.I tilt my head to look up at him, he was already staring at me, "My family?" I ask."Yeah what was your childhood like?" Nayel asks playing
I cross my ankles as I wait for the elevator to arrive, I fix the hem of my dress as the elevator door opens and my eyes lock with the man in the very back, Nayel. Our eyes meet and a mischievous smirk appears on his lips, memories of this weekend flood through my mind and my cheeks start heating up. The elevator was filled with 4 other people, I was hoping no one would notice the color arising on my face.I step in smiling at my fellow colleagues muttering quick hello's and how are you's before making my way to the back to stand next to Nayel."Good Morning Mr. Nayel," I say in a professional tone but my eyes were looking him up and down.Nayel was smirking, licking his lips, "Good morning Maria" He keeps his tone flat so no one notices something is up with us."Your coffee sir," I say handing him the coffee our fingers brushing sending chills down my spine."Why thank you" Nayel smirks, his eyes go wavy with lust a look I know all too well.
I blink adjusting to the light coming out of the windows. I smile to myself as memories from last night flash my mind. I bite my lower lip rolling to the other side, "Ouch" I mutter, it was hard to move. I was so worn out.My eyes roam the room looking for Nayel but he wasn't in the bed next to me nor were any of his things visible. Did he leave? I felt my heart drop. He just wanted to sleep with me and now he's gone. He had his fun, used me, and then discarded me. I gulp as a wave of sadness is about to erupt inside of me when Nayel walks into the room with two mugs in his hands and bag. He smiles as our eyes meet, he was only wearing boxers looking fine as hell."Hi" I smile sitting up on the bed as Nayel sits in front of me."Good morning beautiful" Nayel moves a strand of my hair from my face."I made coffee," He says handing me the cup."Oh, how the tables turn" I joke causing him to chuckle."And I post mated donuts because I couldn't
Nayel parks the car, leaning over and placing a soft kiss on my cheek, "Have a nice weekend" He smiles making butterflies erupt in my stomach.I bite my lower lip, "Do you want to come upstairs?" I found myself asking.Nayel's eyes widen as he nods eagerly, "Yeah" He pauses smiling, "Yeah yeah yeah" He nods eagerly making me giggle, he's so cute."You can park somewhere over there" I point to the parking lot as Nayel tries finding us a spot.Nayel unlocks the car, we grab our things and head upstairs."I think the only other time I've been to your place was the New Year's Party" Nayel says behind me as I was unlocking my door."I really wanted to kiss you that night" Nayel whispers in my ear as I open the door and turn around to smile at him. I lean up and place a soft kiss on his lips."Here you go" I wink pulling away causing him to grin as we step inside my apartment."I'm not a millionaire so excuse the basic ass apartment,
I look around to see if anyone was paying attention to me and knocked on Nayel's office door once walking in without waiting for a reply."Hi, do you want to" I stop myself when I notice a woman sitting beside him, oh shit did I just interrupt a meeting? Wait I'm his assistant and no one had an appointment for right now.Nayel and the girl were laughing, they looked up from their conversation to see me. The woman looked around Nayel's age, maybe slightly older? She had beautiful black hair, tan skin, and grey eyes."I'm so sorry to interrupt you Mr. Nayel," I say clinking my teeth together, "I'll come back later" I look at Nayel apologetically."Is this her? Is this the Maria?" The woman turns her head to Nayel, smiling brightly.Nayel rolls his eyes playfully, a smile appearing on his lips, "Yeah" He says lowly.I furrow my eyebrows in confusion, who is this woman who knows about me?"Oh my goodness" She exclaims getting out of the s
"Stop it" I roll my eyes playfully pushing Nayel's hand off my knee for the 5th time in the last 10 minutes."Why?" Nayel stares at me with seriousness. He looks almost offended."Need I remind you our colleagues are sitting right behind us," I say making sure I keep my tone low.Nayel rolls his eyes, "And as I've told you before, I couldn't give a lesser fuck about what they think""Ever wonder what it would be like for me if they found out?" I say getting slightly annoyed and Nayel tilts his head, "Firstly, they will never believe this thing between us happened 2 years after I started working for you. Not to mention, anytime I get a promotion or you side with my idea it's going to be because I'm sleeping with the boss. I'm going to have to deal with judgemental stares every day because I'll just be that girl in the office who sleeps to get what she wants"Nayel's features soften as he squeezes my hand, "I'm sorry, I never thought of it from your
