"Who is back?"
My head snapped towards the source of voice and my eyes widened.
Sh*t! I forgot he is in the same room!
"No one." I answered very much quickly to my liking, squirming on the bed feeling uncomfortable at his ocean eyes.
He stared at me, making an eye contact contest on who is going to break the eye contact, but he was determined not to look away first. I was certain that he knew I was trying to hide something from the moment where he pinned me to the wall last night to asked about that box but I am not going to bow down to him and tell him what was wrong because, first, he is my boss. Second, he is a stranger to me and lastly I still do not know anything about him besides being an owner of a different company branches.
He could be a serial killer for all I know.
I averted my eyes, breaking our eye contact as it is not making me more comfortable. Even his stare screamed power, I could not defeat that as I
"Ahem!"All of their heads turned towards my direction now fully aware that I heard what they were saying behind the chief of executive's back.They straightened themselves at their chairs and smiled at me."You must be the newly hired Secretary of Sebastian." An older man said making his way towards me and take my hand.I quickly took my hand out of his grasp and contorted my lips into an awkward smile and nod my head at him and extending my hand back but this time as a sign of 'shall we?'."Right." The older man said nodding his head before sitting back to his chair.I smiled at the gesture and started to place the documents at the side in where they were seated one by one.As if on cue, the door of where I entered opened and the mood inside the room sombered.Mr. Schulz fast stride towards at the end of the table and sit at his chair and looked up."You must be wondering why I gathered you here twenty minu
I was in the air when I felt something hard touch my butt, I winced in pain at the sudden impact of the floor.Yes, you got that right, I just fell down on my buttHard,From a chair,On the FLOOR,Just right in front of my BOSS."Owww!", I squealed rubbing my newly sore butt, "Great. Just great." I muttered under my breath as I look around at the mess that I had just made. I look up and saw my boss clutching his beautiful and silky brown hair, stiffing a laugh.Wait. What!? No! I did not say beautiful. I swear, I did not.Gosh, where did that come from!?Shut up!In an instant, he was right in front of me grabbing me by my arm as he pulled me up and begin dragging me towards the floor, the amused look he had on his face
The world around me seemed to stop, my brain stutters for a moment and my eyes looked at the screen in front of me, every part of me goes on pause. After a wash of cold, I bolted upright from my seat, the table makes a banging sound that made the other customers turned their heads towards my direction."Sorry", I apologetically said and turned to look at the two ladies before me who are now staring at me with their raised eyebrows.I smiled sheepishly at them before grabbing my bag and scrambled to my feet a little clumsily making me drop the fork that I had used catching the attention of some of the customers near us yet again I apologetically smiled at them and put the fork back to its place before standing up again."Are you okay?" Illyria asked with such a soft voice, her eyes showed the kind of gentle concern she always have as my older sister. She laid her hands on my shoulder to help me steady myself."Huh? Oh! Of course I am okay! I just need to g
It feels like it has been hours that passed by, simply sitting here in almost a daze at what had happened, nothing but my thoughts keeping me company.And although majority of my thoughts were about how on earth did I get into a situation like this? I know it sounded ridiculous because nothing serious happened. Like having or getting into a mishap nor someone died however, I could not help but think about Mr. Schulz's actions these past few days. Something about him was so enticing.Well, aside from that, being bossy and having a psycho personality is an understatement. He was self-centered and fired workers even for the slightest and smallest of mistake--- I mean, he does give an another chance but once he feels like shit, he won't be caring the slightest bit about you being fired. I cannot comprehend why there are a few people like him must be so cliché? For what reason does he need to be all self-centered and selfish? Could
I woke up with slight muttering around me. I opened my eyes and saw Audrey's face right in front of me. I closed my eyes back. I was definitely dreaming. There is no way that kid is here inside my room. Inhaling deeply, I took in the intoxicating smell of woody-mossy.I felt something soft touch my nose so I was unable to inhale and find it hard to breath. My eyes flutter open when I realized that I was not dreaming and shook my head. Audrey was there holding my nose with her little hand."Audrey!" I winced as I sat up. My head was pounding badly. I clutched my head and pressed it tightly which eased the pain a bit but when I released, the pain came back crashing.I looked around. I was not in my room. It was an exceptionally gigantic white walls and tiled floor. There was a little library in one corner and foot length windows at the opposite end. Pink and white love seats and a white table was before the windows. Lovely and costly works of art were embellishing the walls. I focused at
"Let's go."Sebastian pulled me away from the house to the white Audi SUV waiting.I kept my eyes on him as we approached the car, he was neatly groomed with his Armani suits, his hair was also perfectly done while I was just in my dark ripped jeand and a white tank top partnering it up with my flat shoes.He forced me into the passenger seat and I glared at him as he entered the other side, he did not look my way.I bit hard on my lip as more anger bubbled inside of me, I wanted to smash something, destroy something, or if possible kill, and my thoughts were centered on one person, Sebastian Schulz.I was sitting in the passenger seat with anger written all over my face. And the reason was sitting beside me.I snapped my head towards him and shot a glare while he returned it with a smirk. Oh how much I want to wipe that stupid smirk off of his face."Perverted cow." I muttered under my breath and dugged my nails into my palms,
*poke**poke**poke*“Hey.” *poke*“Stop.”*poke*“Stop it.”*poke*“I said stop it!” I almost jumped out of my seat at his sudden outburst.“I am bored.” I stated, slumping down on my seat and propping both my feet on the coffee table.“So?” he sarcastically asked.“Let’s play a game.” I suggested.“No.” he deadpanned without even looking up from his laptop.“Why?” I asked while looking at him as he typed furiously typing on his laptop.“I am busy.” Seriously? He is still busy? When was the time that he is not?“We are on board and you are still busy?” I whinned throwing my hand in the air and averted my gaze on him towards the couple who was busy flirting with each other.The ex-girlfriend slash former secretary? I do not know where that bimbo went.I stood up from my seat and went to the couple who were busy doing their own stuff and sit at the seat opposite them.“Ahem!” I cleared my throat. They both stopped at what they were doing and turned to look at me, their faces wore a big
After almost five hours of babbling, groaning, glaring, smacking, quarreling, rolling eyes and snoozing, we were out of the plane. The hot weather of Philippines hit me and I forgot how hot it was and regretted wearing a coat. It was all too familiar. It felt like I never left this place.“Welcome back to the Philippines.” I muttered under my breath and followed the couple in front of me.Sebastian and the bimbo were again no where to be found.After getting out luggages, I waited inside the car for Sebastian. It had already been an hour and I was getting irritated. I hate it when someone makes me wait for them. I decided to call my sister, Illyria."Hello!" Ate greeted cheerfully on the other side. "Hi ate, its me Audrey." I said. "I know, baby sis. How was the flight? Are you alright?" she asked, concern can be heard in her voice. "It was fine ate. It just feels so unusual to be here once more." I genuinely said. "Try not to stress, baby sis. You will overcome it, eventually. A
“Hey! I mean every single word I have said!”“Uh, yeah sure.” I sarcastically replied while looking at him with my serious face. His wide smile was shortly replaced with a defeat one and I could not take it anymore, I bursted out laughing at his expression.“I can’t believe you just fell for that!” I said laughing hysterically.“Oh you are gonna regret playing with me, Ms. Mcfeller.” He leaned his head to the right while crossing both his arms.“Is that a challenge Mr. Patterson?” I said mocking the sound of his voice.“Ah! I would love to but I already know who is going to win with this battle.” He surrendered, raising both his arms in the air.“You have not changed at all. Still a coward Griffin I have known.”“Hey! D

Do not cross the line here.” He shot me with a warning look that made me took a step back and raised both my arms in the air.I know what you were thinking. ‘Are you serious?’ Yes I am serious, ‘Are you crazy!? You were scared when you saw him again and now you are hangi
Waking up with a heavy pounding on my head was the wost feeling in the world. I dragged myself out of the bed and went straight to the bathroom. As I entered, I looked my reflection on the mirror and I could not recognize who is the woman standing before me.What happened?After taking a long shower, I marched my way towards the living room where I saw Isla slumped on the couch wrapped in a blanket with a mug wrapped tightly on her hands looking much worst than me.“Good morning,” I said and went to take a sit beside her.She took of her glance at the mug and turned to look at me, “Hey, how are you?”“Hangover but I am fine,” I replied. “How about you? Are you okay? You looked… awful.”“Jeeez, no need to be so rude this early in the morning.” She groaned.My facial expression
After downing my six shots and interminably of drinks down my throat, it seemed like everything was floating and I was in the air. I was feeling light, similar to a plume.I was looking at the spot when my eyes got a glossy name on an entryway at the far end.VIP.The brilliant name streaked sparkles at me flooding my brain with what I have been attempting to overlook for endless years.I smiled internally. I realize very well what occurs behind that VIP entryway. I have been in there for so often. I recoiled at the terrible recollections.Over!That is all finished. Nothing will happen once more!"Daaancccceeee!" Isla slurred and dove deep into the group disregarding me all. I gazed at her moving structure with some person. I squinted my eyes to see unmistakably and scowled when I understood it was Cassius. Cassius Hawk.Of course Isla would bring Cassius with us!. The mann
