POV: SelinaJeez!Living in this neighborhood is definitely going to be tough. Everyone is so snobbish and rude, like very rude. One lady bumped into me on the road and her groceries spewed on the road. She was so mean, and she made me pick them up for her even though she had been the one at fault. I was just dealing with her when a kid who was learning to ride a bicycle ran into me and knocked me down with his bicycle.“watch it, lady!” Was his only response to me as he picked up his bicycle and sped away, not minding if I was hurt. I bruised my ankle and knee on the floor, so I had to stop by a pharmacy and get some adhesive bandage to cover it up. I spotted him the moment I walked into the supermarket. There is no hiding place for the aura that surrounds him. With his figure and his looks, there is no way in hell that you would miss him in any place. He always stands out, his charisma and aura distinguishes him from everyone else. The moment I spotted him, I froze in place as I re
POV: FelixI was holding on to my self-control as if my life depended on it. I had to hold myself back from kissing her in the car. The thought of pushing her away forever was my driving force all night. I had to do everything in my power to keep my hands to myself. I exerted great effort to restrain myself from kissing and making out with her in the car and in her house too. When we had that conversation about food, I learned that she enjoys spicy food and I mentally noted that Selina Nash likes spicy food and ice cream. This will be at the back of my mind so I can always take her to a restaurant that serves spicy foods and I’ll make it a habit to get her ice cream too. I’ll use these treats to reward her when she listens to me and obeys my orders. So far, I’ve kept my motives a secret from her. Despite my strong emotions, despite how much I wish to stay back and keep her by my side. I did not linger long in her apartment. Like an expert, I skillfully eased her wariness, building f
POV: Selina I can’t believe he wants to use me and replace a pet rabbit. I wish he had just told me he liked me and let me respond as I’m supposed to. All the nice lunch and perfect character would have been nice if I wasn’t being asked to replace a rabbit. Like, what the hell is he going to do with a big rabbit like me?“Don’t you think that it’s weird for his rabbit to bear my name, isn’t it weird that she looks just like the rabbit on the frame?Why do you think he wants me to replace her, couldn’t he just get more rabbits if he needs more pets?” I asked angrily as I paced the living room area of my new apartment. I’ve been this way since I got back home, I’m so angry that he would even compare me with a rabbit. Our lunch day was going so well, it would have ended in his bedroom if he hadn’t said those troubling words to me. I couldn’t sit still for one second, it’s more alarming to think that a part of me wanted to say yes to replacing a pet rabbit. I loved him so much, that I w
POV: Selina“I’m sorry, Mrs Wilson, you got it all wrong ma’am. We both know I would lose my job if I shared the creativity of the interns with anyone. I can’t report to you before to the boss too, it’s clearly stated in my employment letter that I report directly to the boss. I don’t know who made the rules, but I’m pretty sure you all agreed to it before it was decided. I may not be able to change the rules for you, but I could run errands for you if you like. I could get your coffee and…”“I have a PA that is paid to run errands for me. This is exactly what I want from you. It’s either you say yes or you leave my sight right now and never come to again.” She stated firmly. I opened my mouth to protest, but she hissed and walked out on me, ignoring me again. It felt so strange, I mean, why give me a job when you won’t let me do my job, what am I supposed to do now?I stood there for a few minutes thinking of what I would do about her unusual request. I was still lost in thought as
POV: Felix “Stay right here, I’ll get help.” I told her and pushed her to the far end of the elevator. I went back to the door and banged harder on it, calling out loudly to anyone out there. I left her standing there while I stood by the door and tried to get help. To her, I was doing my best to get us out of her. She felt sad because my attempts to call for help inside the elevator failed, the emergency button was ineffective, and the mobile signal was lost. I hid my phone in my briefcase, and when the elevator went down with us inside, I’d stepped on her phone on purpose and smashed it. I made sure her phone was damaged in the fall, and then I lied about not bringing my phone. To be honest, in fact, this whole charade is just an act to prolong the time we spend in the elevator together. It is not a fucking accident, it’s all me.Yeah, I know you’ll call me a freak. But come on, it’s fun to have her right where I want her to be. You cannot imagine the pleasure I felt when she held
POV: SelinaI paused as I got into my office. It looks so beautiful and perfect, I can’t believe it was redecorated just for me. I could see some familiar paintings and designs, just like in my house. I think it’s the same person that is responsible for the home and office décor. He did such a good job on both, I must commend him someday. My office has a good view of the city, I can step out to my balcony for some fresh air while enjoying the beautiful scenery. My office is right across from his, I could see him all day, and he can see me too. I wonder if I can do my work very well from this office. I’ll be so distracted by him, that I’ll probably be watching him all day. I might end up sitting on my seat and drooling over him all day long.Now I see why Amara was concerned about me working in the same office with him. It’s going to be even tougher now that I’ve told him I like him. I won’t be able to get my eyes off him, and neither will he. The sexual tension between us is going to
POV: Selina“I thought you would take the day off after such a terrible accident this morning. I was just helping you review the new designs from the interns. I wanted to make up for the way I responded to you this morning.” She told me calmly, faking a smile. I walked up to her and picked up the file from her table without saying a word to her. I opened the first and second pages, viewing the first and second designs in the file to see her review of them. But there was no review on any of them. I was right after all, she wasn’t doing me a favor, she was trying to sell these designs and I just walked in on her and ruined her plans before she could conclude her deal with the guy on the other end of the line. I noticed some of the designs on her thighs and I presumed these are the ones she was about to sell before I walked in on her.“There are no reviews on these designs, Mrs Wilson. Or did you only review the designs you have on your thighs?” I asked her, feigning laughter.“Oh, thes
POV: SelinaI was seething in rage when I got back to my office. I can’t believe that I had to keep such a huge secret from Felix. I felt so furious whenever I thought back to her offer, it’s just so ridiculous. She thinks she can buy me off with a few bucks just because she helped me get this job. I paced my office in anger, pulling my hand through my hair. Good thing Felix was not in his office when I came into mine. One look at me and he would know that something is wrong.It’s one thing to keep a secret from him. But if he finds out about it and asks me?I’ll fucking spill the truth without thinking twice. I care deeply about Simon, but I won’t lie for his mother. If I’m caught covering up for her, I’ll be out of a job again. And I’m sure I’ll be blacklisted by FY Glams, no one would want to hire me ever again. The thought of losing this job made me shiver in fear, I picked up the files and glanced through them, counting them to be sure the number tallies with the number of inter
