Vanessa

Another month has passed since I tried to coerce Hayden to help me out of Dimitri's home and seven days since his departure on a business trip. It has also been seven days since I last heard from him. I have no idea if he is doing alright or if he's alive or dead. I have tried but have not been able to call him. Not that I don't have the means to reach him or that he has forbidden me from calling him. I just don't know what to say when I do call him. Do I ask about the weather? Do I ask about his business? But I know nothing about it. Do I ask about his business partners or what? What do normal couples talk about over the phone?

He has been less mean and we have great sex but we are not friends. Apart from that time we saw a movie and a few more times after that, we don't exactly hang out. We go out for dinner now and then to keep up with the farce but there is nothing real about it. It's just part of the job description. Many times, I have picked up my phone to call him but I

  • My boss wants me    Prologue

    Prologue“ I can’t believe the old bastard did this to me ”I keep thinking as fresh, raw grief makes its way under my skin while I’m watching the coffin holding the person I most detest sink into the ground.“ Even from the grave, beyond death, the old maggot still finds a way to sink his claws into my life. Trying to tear my happiness away.” I say to Carter as we both watch.“ I guess the devil has finally met his match if this man still has a way to torment you from the depths of hell” he replies while tilting his imaginary hat in fake reverence. I wish I could just punch him across the face, to break that perfectly structured nose. I know that everyone, especially the women would go into fits on that one and I’m ready to take on whatever comes after but what good would it do my reputation to punch my best friend at my father’s funeral.I guess I could just blame it on my supposed grief. That would be very satisfying seeing as the smug idiot chooses to find the humor in my plight.

  • My boss wants me    The beginning

    Vanessa"They’re here”Martina says from behind me.“ You!, Yes you Vanessa, should hurry up and set up the wine bottles on the table or would you prefer to do that when they’re already settled in ?”NO! NEVER!! I wouldn’t want to appear unethical in the intimidating presence of the family and their friends.Being well acquainted with my clumsy self, I wouldn’t put it past me to drop something and make an unfitting spectacle of myself.“ Hurry.” she says once again, sounding more agitated by the passing second while ushering me in the direction of the dining room.“ You wouldn’t want to irritate your bosses."My said bosses are some of the most intimidating people that you might ever get to meet. I don’t say this because I have seen them get furious and lash out at people, even though I have. I’m saying this because they are some of the most influential people to walk this planet and their aura alone is enough to intimidate you. They belong in the upper echelon of the high class soc

  • My boss wants me    Facing the devil

    VanessaOh okay…No, shit! How could I have forgotten that. What do I do now? I can’t be in the presence of him and his family. Oh Lord! How did it get this bad?“ Can you just help me take this to him? I’ve been feeling this lingering pain in my chest all day and seeing him in grief might just cause my heart to give up. Please…” I give Leon my best puppy eyes but the straight look on his face tells me that I am not going to be successful in this one. “ You’re going to have to face the devil on your own this time.”“ You’ve been here in this house for about eight years and still haven’t gotten used to his presence.” Barry adds with a hint of laughter in his voice.“ Well, I don’t think anyone gets used to having the devil around” says my soul sister Tianna. I look at her, feigning sadness in my eyes and bat my eyelashes,“ how about you take it to him for me instead?” “ I’m with Leon on this one, you should face your fears by yourself. Plus I heard he’s in the study with his friends

  • My boss wants me    Ever clumsy

    VanessaI don’t even wait on a response to my knock because I know he’s so rude and might want to keep me standing for long for having taken that much time. I walk in and everyone is staring at me making me feel too conscious. What the hell have they been talking about? I hope they don’t think I’ve been eavesdropping cos I wasn’t. Why would I even want to eavesdrop? They were probably having a chauvinist party downgrading all the women they know. Why would I want to partake in that?Or do I have a stain on my dress? Or is my hair out of place? I always make sure to check that I’m alright cos I don’t want to misrepresent my bosses. I really took my time this morning to fix myself up knowing we would have guests today. Or do they know about the crush that I’ve been nursing for Dimitri and his older brother? I know it’s twisted but they’re magnificent in their own ways especially Stefan who is so perfect and dreamy. Is that why him and his friends have that look on their faces? Do they

  • My boss wants me    The Proposal

    Vanessa“I am very sorry for the trouble I caused downstairs sir.” I decided to take matters into my own hands as I could no longer handle the awkward silence with him typing away on his phone.“The truth is, I’ve been feeling dizzy all day and I guess it’s really because I’ve been a tad bit stressed out. Not that I’m being overworked because you people are great employers, but it’s just that…”“Can you just shut up if you have nothing smart to say.” He commands in a low and precise tone to stop my rambling.I blame myself for this one so I have no reason to be pissed.It’s like he gets off on issuing commands and embarrassing people at the same time.“ I would like to make you a proposition.”Wow he’s not firing me yet.“ I want you to marry me..”What! I look around in search of the cameras or his friends at least so that I know that he’s trying to play a prank on me but the serious look on his face says otherwise.“ What?”“ You do not strike me as a deaf person so I wonder why you

  • My boss wants me    Jealous boss

    I don't think there's is any situation that can be this awkward, dark and scary. I think as we make our way up to his office. How do I even begin to explain anything to him. He obviously caught me staring at his brother like he's the light brightening up my world. I did not even notice him coming up behind me because I was so engulfed in watching his brother. What do I say?“ You better have a good explanation for why you are having private sessions with my brother. Is this the first time or is this what you always do? Are you that slutty that you would sell yourself to him after signing yourself up to me?"“ Whoa whoa whoa!!! Why would you say that? I have never had a relationship with your brother. Where did you get that idea from?"“ I don't know, maybe because you were looking at him like you would love nothing than for him to take you, right there, on the grass? How dare you make me look like a fool to my friends?"“ And how would you know what I was thinking?"“Every woman looks

  • My boss wants me    Anger

    DimitriAnger, fury. That is all I can feel right now. No one needs to be told to stay away. I'm sure anyone in their right sense would know to stay away from me at the moment so I do not understand what Carter is doing pulling me off the punching bag that I'm enjoying hitting right now. He knows that there's no better way to get rid of my frustrations.“ What the fuck are you doing man? What the hell is wrong with you?Two questions in the same sentence and a serious looking face. Something must be going on with him. “ Why the hell would you question me?" I say as I take another swing at the object.“ Why do you keep hitting? He's been dead for at least ten minutes but you still continue to hit him. You already broke his skull. Tell me man, what is going on?"“ He stole from me. He fucking stole from me." I say as my voice drops.“ We both know there's more to it. It's not the first time anyone has tried stealing from you. It's not the first time you've killed any of the theives but

  • My boss wants me    The Ring

    VanessaThe whole house goes silent. No one is making a move. It's like God hit the pause button on the Earth's remote. Not even the flowers are moving as the breeze stops.Everyone's eyes are on us. On me. What should I say to them? I can hear the wheels turning in their heads. The questions are being asked loudly but without a sound. I look at my mother's face and it's like she's waiting for me to deny it and say that he's probably high on something. I also believe he's high on something because we already had an agreement on when to break the news to them. He didn't even let me prepare for that.“ Since you all have nothing to say, we'll take our leave." He doesn't give me a chance to talk or clarify anything with anyone before pulling me along with him into the house.“ Let go of me, sir!"“ Do not call me sir in public. We're presumed to be getting married soon."“ Well then let go of me immediately!" I say as I keep struggling to get out of his grip.He keeps pulling me until we

  • My boss wants me    Indifferent

    VanessaIt has been a month since that incident. Since I nearly lost my life. It is sad and very sour to think that my heart is not the only thing after my life. I am still alive— thank God– but I don't think I can truly live until I find out the truth about what happened that night. A repeat of the events keeps playing in my head. I can hardly sleep every night without being plunged back into the car.Dimitri and everyone keep trying their best to convince me that the car was hit by a falling g tree branch but I know better and cannot be convinced otherwise. I know because I heard the gunshots. I heard it loud and clear. I was in no way intoxicated that my judgment will be disregarded. I heard the booming sound of the gun and when it hit the car. I heard the second one which led him to lose control of the car. I felt my would leave my body at that moment. The only thing I could hold onto was him and now he is lying to me.“Vanessa! You're drifting again." Hayden draws my attention ba

  • My boss wants me    Unknown Pov

    I watch as the dinner happens and I cannot help but admire the feistiness in her. Vanessa, what a lovely name. It sounds like something so delicate. I would expect that she would be delicate but I beg to differ after I saw the fire and how she nearly ripped Francesca apart.I never would have guessed that Dimitri would get himself a wild one for a wife. I thought she would be docile, and easy to control but she has a bit of him in her. She is almost as scary as him. I hope I get to experience some of that heat when I take her for myself.It is funny that the entire household, the entire table has no idea who is listening in or watching them. They are oblivious to their environment which gives me an advantage. I wanted nothing more than to have access to their hotel room so that I can at least please myself by watching his wife but the man knows how to make a fortress of anywhere he is. It was hard to penetrate his office but I did it and now he thinks everyone is out to get him. Good.

  • My boss wants me    I want to.....again

    “Oh, God! Dimitri." My body trembles uncontrollably and I shut my eyes as I come all over the place. He lowers his head to my shoulder and bites my pulse as he comes inside of me. His hit semen shoots through me like lava and I commit it, along with all other actions that have taken place, into memory. It is unintentional but I know I will never forget this feeling. I can never forget Dimitri even if I try.He lays down beside me and we're both silent. I'm still trying to regulate my breath and calm my beating heart. I look at him and his gaze is faced to the ceiling. “What are you thinking?"He turns to me. “About the fact that our hosts know what we're doing. That sends my brain into overdrive and the memory of what happened earlier with Francesca comes to mind. I cannot believe this! I sit up immediately and look at the door. What if someone had come in? What if someone had seen us? How am I sure that they had not already come and saw us doing the nasty in their bed?“Calm down," h

  • My boss wants me    Him, granting my wish

    Vanessa“Go on. Tell us, tell your father how you got his godson, my husband, to sleep in your bed on the first night of my honeymoon." I turn to Dimitri this time to see him already looking at me “Or do you want to do the honors since you're the one sleeping in people's beds?" I can't tell if he wants me to continue or stop. If he's impressed or if I'm overreacting but the truth is I don't care. He shouldn't be having issues with me speaking with Stephan when he's the one sleeping with bitches.“Excuse us, Uncle." He says and takes my hand. “Please, come with me." He doesn't wait for me to say anything before he's pulling me up from my chair and out of the dining room. We take a right turn and go up a staircase and we take another turn. I notice how large the house is from the little journey to wherever he's taking us. We come to a door and he pushes it open and pulls me in after him. Seems like the journey has come to an end. Finally! My feet were starting to hurt.The room is dark

  • My boss wants me    Dimitri, Vanessa and Francesca

    VanessaAfter the awkward introductions, we settle to have dinner in silence. I must say, with the extravagant interior decorations, I expected the food to be great but it is bland. I don't know if it has anything to do with the mood or the cook but it's taste does not interest me. I don't need to guess that they had a relationship. Francesca is a beautiful woman with a great sexual appeal, I'm sure and Dimitri is a fine man with raging hormones, again, I'm sure.He is more than a fine man but that is another thing I have no interest in delving into. What I am interested in is what must have ended the relationship. They are both attractive and seem to have a lot in common with their nasty personalities so why then would he not marry her and chose me instead.“So how did you both meet?" The question comes from Mr Luigi who makes it seem like my presence is exciting to him. I feel nice and creeped out at the same time.“Yes, how did you meet?" Francesca echoes her father's words like I

  • My boss wants me    Acting like I deserve to be his wife

    VanessaI cry for a good six minutes of the drive before I'm able to compose myself and retouch my makeup to look better. I hope my eyes are not too puffy. Through it all, he does not nat an eyelash in my direction or say anything to console me. I thought we had gotten better. The moment I think he has maybe begun to like me, he reminds me of how apart our two worlds are and the dynamics of our relationship. I will be lying if I say this didn't hurt me at all. I turn to look at him but he is too focused on driving to where we are going. That or maybe he is trying hard to avoid the fact that we are riding in the same car to the same place. It makes me sad to think about what he might be thinking. I don't know when we pull into our destination because I'm much occupied with trying to look good and deserving to be his wife.“We're here. Remember all that I told you to do?" I can't look him in the eyes so my eyes are still down. “Yes sir.",I answer weakly. We stay like that for a few mom

  • My boss wants me    Annoying question

    VanessaThe rest of the week goes by in a blur. My ankle has gotten better. Although I still have a little limp, the doctor said it is all better. Dimitri is still the same but there have been big changes in how he behaves. These days, he does not say anything offensive and he is a tad bit polite. The other day, he asked me to be specific about what I wanted and he got it for me. I don't know if he is trying to please me because of the bathroom accident or if it is something else. It is weird though because I have never thought of him as someone who would care about anyone's feelings. Two days back, he requested for food items to be brought up to the suite and he cooked something in the kitchenette. He cooked! At first, I was skeptical about it but when I asked why he only said he didn't trust outsiders to fully satisfy him. I still haven't gotten over the fact that his life was in danger so I have a theory that he is being careful not to get poisoned by someone making our food. It

  • My boss wants me    Classic Carter

    VanessaThis time, I make sure to move myself to the living area so that I don't miss him when he comes in and also so that I don't get surprised. I want him to walk straight to me so I can question him. Why would he set Carter on Tianna? I know the man is a man whore and might want her for some reason but that is not enough to convince me that a grown man with an empire to run, would have enough free time to go after her like that. He should not have that much free time on his hand. I already pleaded with him before so I don't understand why this would still be dragging out. Apart from that, I also need to under why Carter would claim to have saved his life. That is not a baseless claim cos I know that words like that do not just slip if there isn't an ounce of truth. That is why he kept insisting that I call him if anything feels slightly off. He needs to be open to me so that I can know if there are some extra safety precautions I need to take. Do I always have to look over my shou
