CHAPTER 1

Riella's POVI was nervous.I could feel the sweat pouring out from my open pores and sticking to the clothes I had on. It was starting to get very itchy and comfortable and I was desperately trying not to tug at the sleeves of my dress. The fringe of my raven dark hair wouldn't stop sticking to my forehead due to the sweat.I was a mess.Letting out a dissatisfied groan at the turn of events, I pushed myself off my well-made bed and walked toward my full-length mirror which occupied the downright corner of my room. I was clad in a black long-sleeved dress that stopped a few inches before my knee. The dress hugged and accentuated my sides and curve in such a way that made me look…sultry. The sleeves of the dress poured down around my wrist in an onion bulb style.My makeup was already smeared due to the sweat and the way my nerves and spines were shooting up now and then was already starting to irritate the hell out of me.Cocking my full hips to the side, I took my time to look thro

Synopsis and the whole novel are 2 different stories. However, the novel wasn’t bad at all. And by the way for author’s head’s up, it’s come on, not common.

CHAPTER 2

Harrold's POV.“But I already told you, mum, Brittany is away on a long-term modeling project. I honestly would hate to disturb her and I really don't have the luxury to leave the company unattended at the moment. ” I said for the umpteenth time over the phone.“Does it matter? You don't have to go to the office every day before you have things coordinated.” Her firm, authoritative yet overly caring voice came up on the air.She was all three at once.Firm. Authoritative. And Caring.How my mother, Raegan Lilly Alexander, the wife of Paul Daniel Alexander, the owner of Exquisite Empire, managed to topple all three emotions into her voice at once never ceases to amaze me.She had always been like that for as long as I could remember. She was like a storm, a strong wavy storm to the general public and the world in general but to the insiders and the people of her inner circle, she was all three of everything she wanted to be.One minute, she was so caring and doting and the very next, s

CHAPTER 3

Harrold's POV.There was something about New York City that just always managed to excite me. It could be the buzz, the thriving, the excitement, the shops, the weather, or the people moving about.It could be just about anything that fascinated me really.I had always lived in Miami, Florida far from New York but when I decided that It was time for me to build my empire and rule the world, I had Damien sit down with me while we looked through cities.Somehow, New York had just fascinated me and I found myself choosing it.Now, here we were.“Do you have any special qualifications that you would need your PA to possess?” I had almost forgotten that Damien was with me in the car. Majorly because he was always quiet. But today, he was even quieter and didn't even say a word when I talked about the buzzing city like I always do.“You say?” I asked him even though I had heard him.“I'm very sure you heard me the first time, man. But just in case you are starting to develop ear problems, I

CHAPTER 4

Riella's POV.Fuck Carolyn.That was one thing I kept thinking of while I had my interview with a group of people. You know how I said that my body didn't appreciate eating so very early in the morning?It was because of certain reasons.The stupid good-luck coffee Carolyn had forced me to take early that morning was starting to affect me. My stomach was churning deeply and now and then, new sweats broke out on my skin leaving me uncomfortable.Tears were starting to pool in my eyes at how uncomfortable I had gotten with the clothes I had on. Asides from that, I was experiencing this deep irritable bowel syndrome and I just want to get the fuck out of the room but I couldn't afford to mess up my interview.“You said you have never done this before?” A man who had introduced himself as Damien Martin had been the only one throwing questions at me ever since I walked into the room. The others just jotted down.“Yes, this is my first time,” I replied, managing to keep my head straight so

CHAPTER 5

Riella's POV.Five seconds.Five whole seconds and I was still standing on the spot, my eyes glued to the man seated on the seat, behind the desk.Harrold Williams.Rich, fine, smooth, and creamy skin, doe-shaped brown eyes, well-structured nose, and sexy as hell lips…a face that screamed art stared at me. His raven dark hair mirrored mine, straightened in a style that made him look so hot and stirred the urge to run my hand through it.What the hell?“G-good morning, sir.” I snapped out of my fantasy just in time for him to raise a brow at me, questioning.“It's already noon.” That was his monotone reply, face pulled into an impassive expression as he watched me.And god damn his voice.Deep. Firm. And Sexy.“I'm sorry, sir.” I exhaled and straightened up properly. “Good afternoon, sir. I'm Riella Monroe, your newly appointed EA.” I introduced myself formally.Leaning back into his swivel chair, he sent me a smile that almost made me drool. When he beckoned at one of the chairs befor

CHAPTER 6

Riella's POV.I hopped out of the cab, paid the cab man, and started to walk into the house. I was happy and excited for myself. I didn't expect to get the job, I wasn't expecting the news at all. And no, I wasn't underestimating myself.And the pay, my goodness!The pay was triple the amount of my former job. I couldn't believe it, couldn't comprehend it when Damien Martin had told me earlier. Heck, I almost freaked out.But I didn't. Instead, I raised my head and gave them one of my most pleasant smiles. A low ruffled bark had me stopping in my tracks. Hesitantly, I spurned around to meet the sight of the small white Labrador retriever dog that belonged to Lyn.I scooted down slowly, my smile stretching further as I rubbed its back. It wagged its tail, obviously excited to see me. It always stays at home while we go out to work.“Hello, Winter.” I smiled before moving further to rub its chest. That single gesture had it wagging its tail excitedly before it flicked its tongue at the

CHAPTER 7

Riella's POV.“What are you wearing?” Carolyn's voice had my head whisking toward the door where she was standing, poking her head in. Her face was pulled into this dissatisfied frown as she watched me.My eyes did a slow crawl over her.She was donning a black jean bum short matched with a pink bustier which left ample stomach flesh on display. I went ahead to check out her feet which were clad in pink kicks.Her hair was pulled into a ponytail atop her head while her face was done into smokey-eyed makeup that made her look extra good.“Clothes.” That was my simple response to her question as she eyed me slowly.“I know that, doofus!” She hissed as she started to make her way into my room as she owned it. “I'm asking why you have that beach skirt on. We are going to a club and not the beach, Ella.” She complained.I looked down at the three-layered multi-colored beach skirt I had on which I had matched with a yellow top tied at my midriff.“What's wrong with this?” I threw my hands o

CHAPTER 8

Riella's POV.I couldn't breathe.My throat felt clogged somehow and it felt like someone had a rope around my neck, tightening and tightening it by the second. It made my eyes burn with brimming tears and my nose get stuck.I didn't understand.I thought I was over this. I thought I was over this feeling, this sickening feeling that had become my worst nightmare. It was leaving me pathetic.Nice ass you got there.The voice whispered, solemnly to the back of my mind, testing me, trying to get at me. It was just like I remembered; teasing, deadly and forceful.I'm going to deal with you.The sickening voice came again. This time, it was a bit louder. It was like it was crawling into my mind, trying to pave way for itself, pave space. Lie for daddy, hun.I could feel it. I could feel the burns, the stupid burns on my skin. Burns that happened only when he had his finger running down my skin.But he wasn't here.He is here.That sneaky little voice debunked again and I felt myself redu

CHAPTER 9

Harrold's POV.I climbed down the stairs, taking one step after the other. I could hear the loud chattering coming from the dining room and that made me hasten my footstep toward there.“Good morning, house.” I pulled back a chair and took my seat. Matilda who was seated opposite me placed her mug of whatever back on the table.“Good morning, Harrold.” She sent me a wink before grabbing her cutleries again to eat what was on her plate.“Hm, good morning boss.” Damien sent me a mock bow that had me chuckling lightly.James walked in and poured me a cup of coffee, added some toast, and placed it before me. I ate immediately while still conscious of the time.“Dad praised your efforts when we spoke yesterday. You must have done a very nice job.” I started, flickering my gaze toward Matilda who was now busy looking through something on her phone.“Of course, he would.” She shrugged like the compliment meant nothing to her. Then, she looked away from her phone at me. “Listen, we will be go

CHAPTER 10

Riella's POV.My head was pounding. It was banging loudly, pummeling at such a fast rate that I feared whatever was hitting at it was sure to destroy the cage of my flesh. It was what had me peeling my eyes open.The rays and amount of sunlight seeping into my room made me squint my eyes a bit so I could adjust them to the light. But when my mind hinted at the fact that it wasn't supposed to be shining this much at 5:00 AM, I threw the covers off my body and sat up immediately.The soft snores emitting from someone besides me had me flickering my gaze toward the knocked-out and sleeping hot blonde, Carolyn.I climbed out of bed and grabbed my phone when I sighted. What said the time had me tumbling backward for a second and my back hit the wall.It was past eight.“Jesus!” I couldn't help screaming as I crashed to the ground, pulling at my detangled hair. I must have fallen asleep while watching the movie last night. And I didn't want to take the alcohol.I ran a hand through my hair
