Chapter 03

"He said what?!" Olivia's friend and the Marketing Manager of the company asked with wide eyes. Olivia sighed and shook her head, "I'm not doing this Macey, what if it all goes south? What if he asks me to sleep with him?" She said worriedly.

Macey rolled her beautiful blue eyes, "Come on, it can't be that bad. I'm sure women are dying to get under him, plus, didn't he just say today that you're not his type?" He asked.

"Yeah," Olivia nodded, hoping that had to count for something. "But I'm not doing it, I'm going home, I'll face Mr Chad in the morning with some fancy excuse," she said and with that marched into Macey's front seat and folded her arms.

"Are you sure about this? You might not have a job to come back to when all this is over," Macey advised. Olivia looked at the looming building, she really needed her job alright but she couldn't stand a night with Chad alone in the office and just a thin desk between them.

"I'll tell him a believable lie, come on, didn't you say you wanted to have drinks with someone, let's go," she said.

Macey shrugged and drove off. Working late with Chad Steele was usually a scandalous affair. Every secretary that he worked with over time ended up trying to get into his bed and life - again. The same was true for Rose who acted like she owned him.

They arrived at the club a few minutes later and Macey was able to get them in because she knew the bouncer - in fact, she knew a lot of men that Olivia wouldn't think of knowing. "So, have you met this one before?" Olivia asked as Macey walked to a skinny man by the counter and gleefully hugged him.

"No, we're just getting to know each other," she replied and clung to his side as they ordered shots. Olivia was the third wheel as Macey handed her a glass of cocktail and made herself comfortable on the man's lap at the corner of the club, leaving her alone at the counter.

"Hey, beautiful, do you want something strong?" The bartender asked and Olivia shook her head eagerly. She didn't want anything strong. Anytime Macey got drunk, she was the rescue driver and right then, with the sound of her laughter, she was sure Macey was definitely getting drunk that night.

The music changed after a few minutes and everyone began to grind on the dance floor. Olivia threw back the sixth shot and could feel the room spinning already. "Do you wanna dance?" Someone very close to her whispered and she was about to ask him off when he already grabbed her hands and led her to the dancefloor. "Why is such a pretty thing like you seated all alone in the bar, did you come alone?" He asked.

Olivia shook her head, "Came with friends, they're just busy I guess," she replied and gulped down two more shots, trying to get him away from her but it wasn't working. The man clung to her waist and grinded hard against her cheeks.

"I have to take this," Olivia said as her phone suddenly rang and was removed outside. It was Macey and she noticed that her car was still parked outside. "Yes, what's up? It's a mess so you're leaving so soon?" She asked.

"On the contrary. He's amazing so I want to know his place," Macey replied. Olivia gasped, "You just met him and you want to have sex with him?!" She asked with wide eyes.

"Come on, Liv. Live a little will you? You can drive the car home, I'll pick it up from your place tomorrow, bye," she said and hung up immediately.

"Shit!" Olivia whispered under her breath and turned to walk to the car but someone was right in front of her. She startled briefly before realizing it was just the guy from the dancefloor earlier. "Leaving so soon, gorgeous?" He asked, leering at her. Olivia rolled her eyes at his tone, his eyes were fixed on her cleavage and it disgusted her.

"Yes, I have work tomorrow," she replied and gestured at the car, "You're in my way." But the man didn't move, he got closer to her and grabbed his crotch, "You gave me a hard-on with that grinding of yours, now you have to take care of it, it's not fair to leave a man like this," he whispered.

Olivia stepped back, "What are you doing? Get away from me right now, my boyfriend will be here any second from now," she said, her voice trembling as much as her feet. She was drunk and couldn't even defend herself, the street was pretty quiet too, she didn't feel safe.

"I heard that call, darling, your boyfriend isn't coming, you're alone here and you're going to take care of me," he sneered.

Olivia turned immediately and saw a man, dressed in a suit and stepping out of a Bentley, one that she made the mistake of not looking at closely. In panic and with the buzz in her system, she rushed to him and threw her arms over the stranger, kissing him fiercely on the lips. "Oh, I guess you're really with your boyfriend, sorry man," the pervert said and walked into the club again, no doubt to find other victims.

His warm lips caressed her mouth and his tongue gilded softly against her, Olivia moaned and ran her hands through his hair, giving caution to the wind, "Take me," she whispered dreamily.

"I'm here for a business meeting with the owner of the club. Olivia, are you okay?" The stranger asked, Olivia nodded but then her eyes widened, "How did you know my name?" She asked in surprise just as the man lifted his face and she gazed into the eyes of none other than Chad Steele.

"Oh," Olivia sighed and lost consciousness in his arms.

    Chapter 19___What’s Wrong with My Heart? Olivia sat at the dinner table, her fingers nervously toying with the edge of her napkin as she tried to focus on the meal in front of her. The soft clinking of silverware against plates and the low murmur of conversation around the table faded into the background, overshadowed by the chaotic whirlwind of thoughts swirling in her mind. Across from her, Isabella seemed to fit perfectly into the family, all pretty smiles and polished manners. Olivia had never felt so out of place, so overshadowed, in a very long time.Her eyes darted to Chad, sitting diagonally from her, his attention seemingly glued to his plate. But Olivia noticed the way Isabella didn't miss a chance to touch his arm, her fingers brushing lightly against his sleeve as she leaned in to whisper something unimportant. The soft sound of her laughter grated on Olivia's nerves, and an unfamiliar emotion twisted in her chest—envy. She hated it, but there was no denying it.Desperat

  • My Step Boss    chapter 18__The Big Announcement

    Chapter 18__The Big AnnouncementChad and Olivia arrived home after a long day at the office. The drive home was silent and a little tense. Olivia looked outside the window throughout and Chad kept stealing glances at her. “I hope you didn't tell your friend anything. This is a family issue," he reminded her with a sharp tone. Olivia simply hummed but her heart hammered. Would Macey be able to keep it hush hush. She was never the kind to keep a secret despite her best efforts. She always had a way of letting things slip out. She was her best friend but she knew that much about her too. Olivia couldn’t shake the uneasy feeling that had settled in her stomach since receiving the summons from her mother, Hilda. She and Chad had been summoned home with no explanation, only the request to come immediately.As they stepped through the door, Hilda met them with a bright smile, her eyes sparkling with excitement. “Welcome home!” she exclaimed, her voice light and airy. “Hey, Hilda,” Chad

    Chapter 17__Friends Never Keep SecretsOlivia and Chad stood there, frozen, their lips just inches away from each other when there was a loud knock at the door. Olvia jumped apart as if the sound had burned her and tried to compose herself. “Fuck!" Chad swore under his breath but didn't look half as disoriented as Olivia did. “Who is it?" He hissed. “It’s Frederick, sir," the man replied. It was the HR manager. “I have a few reports for you to sign." "The door is open,” Chad snapped and Frederick entered. Olivia’s face turned bright red, and she took a step backward, trying to escape the awkwardness of the situation. Chad, however, stood firm, staring at the HR manager with cold eyes. He seemed to be daring the man to say something, anything, that might give him an excuse to lash out.The HR manager failed to sense the tension in the room. He flashed Olivia a charming smile. “Hey, Liv. How are you doing?" He asked. Olivia didn't trust her voice. She was too shaken by that near k

  • My Step Boss    Chapter 16__Hate, love, hate

    Chapter 16__Hate, love, hate Olivia stepped out of the house just as Chad did. Their eyes met briefly, but Chad didn’t acknowledge her presence. He moved straight to his car, his expression unreadable. Olivia’s heart sank a little, though she would never admit it. Why was he ignoring her? She didn't do anything, she wasn't the one that ruined last night and tried to give her a bloody heart attack in the garage. “Arrogant rake!" She hissed under her breath just as she heard her mother calling out to her. Hilda was right behind her as she turned. "Hey, are you okay?" Hilda asked, concern etched into her features. "You skipped breakfast."Olivia forced a smile, though her stomach was twisting with hunger. "I'm not so hungry, Mum," she lied, hoping it would ease her mother’s worry.Hilda didn’t look convinced, but she nodded and let her go. Olivia was grateful. She didn’t want to explain why the thought of sitting at the breakfast table with Chad made her lose her appetite. It had been

  • My Step Boss    Chapter 15__Please...?

    Chapter 15__Please…?Chad stood in front of the nightclub, his eyes hard and unwavering as he stared down at Olivia. His cheek was still red from the sting of her slap, but his gaze held such intensity that made Olivia’s heart race with fear. "You shouldn't have done that," he hissed, his voice low and menacing. Olivia couldn’t decide what frightened her more—his cold, cutting tone or the icy stare that seemed to pierce right through her.She swallowed, trying to keep her composure as he raised his hand to his reddened cheek. His other hand gripped her wrist tightly, the pressure almost painful. "Let go of me, now!" she demanded, her voice trembling slightly as she tried to sound braver than she felt.But Chad didn’t move. His grip on her wrist tightened, his eyes never leaving hers. Olivia’s breath hitched. She’d seen Chad angry before, but this was different. The man standing before her was terrifying in his controlled fury, and for a fleeting moment, she wished she hadn’t slapped

    Chapter 14__Cat Out of the Bag Chad's face was red with anger as he strode towards Olivia, his eyes blazing with disapproval. "What do you think you're doing?" he demanded, his voice low and menacing.Olivia shrank back, unsure of what to say. She knew she had done nothing wrong, but Chad's anger was intimidating. He looked down right murderous as he glared at her. “Hello, sir," Macey said lamely when she finally overcame the shock of seeing her boss in the club. Hissing, Chad ignored Macey and faced Olivia as he asked, “What is the meaning of this?" "I…I had…my cousin just got…” Olivia stammered helplessly, unable to express herself. "What's going on here? He's the guy? Your ex?" Pauline tried to intervene, but Macey signaled her to stop. She winced at Pauline's ever expressive fone. "Let it go, Pauline. He's our boss," Macey whispered and grabbed her palms. But Pauline was not one to back down. "Why are you ordering her around, bro, what's it with the death stare?" She challe
