Sara's legs straddling Austin's lap, their lips clashed in a fierce, passionate kiss. The sound of their lips meeting was like a spark, igniting a flame that threatened to consume them. "Mmm," Sara murmured, her lips vibrating against Austin's. "I hate you," Austin growled, his hands grasping her hips, pulling her closer. His fingers dug into her skin, sending shivers down her spine. Sara's hands were just as busy, her fingers tracing the lines of Austin's face, her thumbs brushing against his lips. "I hate you too," she whispered, her voice barely audible over the sound of their kissing. Their lips parted for a moment, and Austin's tongue darted out, tracing the curve of Sara's lower lip. She moaned, her hands tangling in his hair, pulling him closer. Sara's hands began to roam, her fingers tracing the contours of Austin's chest. She reached for the hem of his shirt, pulling it up and over his head. As she exposed his chest, Austin's eyes locked onto hers, a warning flashing in their depths. "You'll hate me tomorrow," he said, his voice low and rough. Sara's eyes flashed with defiance, her hands continuing to explore Austin's chest. "We don't like each other anyway," she said, her voice husky with desire.
Lihat lebih banyakAustin cleared his throat, his eyes locked on Ryder's face. "Ryder, I think there's been a misunderstanding," he said, his voice smooth and confident.Ryder raised an eyebrow, his expression curious. "Oh? What kind of misunderstanding"?Austin smiled, his eyes glinting with condescension. "I'm the one who's been working on this project, Ryder. Sara here is just my assistant."Sara's eyes flashed with anger, her face burning with indignation. She couldn't believe Austin was taking credit for her work, belittling her contribution in front of the client.But she couldn't show her anger, not now, not in front of Ryder. So she forced a smile onto her face, her lips curling upward in a bright, fake smile.Ryder's eyes flicked to Sara, his expression thoughtful. "I see," he said, his voice neutral. "Well, in any case, the presentation was excellent."Austin smiled, his chest puffing out with pride. "Thank you, Ryder. I'm glad you liked it."Sara's smile grew wider, her eyes flashing with ang
Austin slammed the door to his hotel room, his anger boiling over. He couldn't believe Sara had outsmarted him, stealing the key card to the VIP suite right from under his nose.He looked around the small, cramped room, his disgust evident. This was a luxury hotel, but the room he'd been relegated to was a far cry from luxury. A single bed, a small desk, and a tiny bathroom were the only amenities on offer.Austin's eyes narrowed, his jaw clenched in anger. "Sara, you're going to pay for this," he spat, his voice low and menacing.He cursed Sara under his breath, pacing back and forth across the small room. How could she do this to him? Didn't she know who he was?Austin stopped pacing and stood in front of the mirror, his eyes blazing with anger. "You think you're clever, don't you, Sara?" He spat, his voice dripping with venom. "But I'll show you what clever really looks like."Austin's smile was cold and calculating. He would bide his time, wait for the perfect moment to strike. An
They boarded the flight, Sara's eyes widened in excitement. "Wow, first class!" she breathed, gazing around at the luxurious seats and amenities.Austin strode ahead, his long legs eating up the distance. Sara followed, her eyes fixed on the plush seats. She felt like she'd died and gone to heaven.When Austin stopped at a seat, Sara assumed it was hers and plopped down, sinking into the soft leather. "Oh, thank you so much, sir!" she exclaimed, smiling up at Austin. "I've never been in first class before. This is amazing!"Austin's expression was less than amused. He raised an eyebrow, his eyes glinting with annoyance. "Get up," he growled.Sara looked at him, confused. "What's wrong, sir?"Austin's voice was icy. "This is my seat. You're in economy class."Sara's face fell as she stared at Austin, her eyes wide with shock. "What? But...but I thought..."Austin's expression was unyielding. "Get up."Sara slowly rose from the seat, her face burning with embarrassment. She felt like sh
Austin emerged from the bathroom, his cold, composed mask firmly back in place. He adjusted his shirt, smoothing out the wrinkles, and began to walk towards Maddy and Sara.Maddy, who had been watching him with a mixture of amusement and curiosity, smiled brightly as he approached. "Mr. Reed, what brings you here?" she asked, her tone friendly.Austin's eyes flicked to Sara, his expression unreadable. "This naive girl forgot the project's main file in the office," he said, his voice dripping with disdain.Sara's eyes widened as she realized her mistake. She had been so caught up in her anxiety about the presentation that she had forgotten the most important document.Maddy nodded, unfazed by Austin's rudeness. "I'll go get it from your car," she said, already heading towards the door.As soon as Maddy was gone, Austin's demeanor changed. He took slow, deliberate steps towards Sara, his eyes never leaving hers. Sara felt a shiver run down her spine as she backed away from him, her hear
Sara paced back and forth in her living room, her eyes fixed on the presentation slides scattered across her coffee table. She had been rehearsing for hours, but she still wasn't feeling confident."Okay, Sara, you've got this," she muttered to herself, trying to sound convincing. "Just introduce yourself, explain the project, and highlight the key points. Easy peasy."But as she glanced at her slides, her mind went blank. What if she forgot what to say? What if she stumbled over her words? What if Austin sabotaged her?Sara's anxiety spiked, and she felt her heart racing in her chest. She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down, but her nerves were getting the better of her.Just then, Maddy walked into the room, a warm smile on her face and a steaming cup of coffee in her hand. "Hey, girl, I thought you needed this." she said, handing Sara the coffee.Sara took the cup gratefully, inhaling the rich aroma of the coffee. "Thanks, Maddy. I'm freaking out over here."Maddy nod
Sara and Maddy sat at a small table, eating their lunch and chatting. Maddy asked Sara, "Why is your mom so... old-fashioned? I mean, I know she wants the best for you, but some of her ideas seem so... outdated."Sara sighed, putting down her fork. "It's because of where we come from, Maddy. Tehran, where I grew up, is a different world. My mom... she had a really tough life."Maddy's eyes were curious. "What do you mean?"Sara hesitated, unsure of how much to reveal. But Maddy's kind face encouraged her to open up. "My mom, she was married off when she was really young. She had me when she was barely 18. And... she had a lot of miscarriages. Five, to be exact."Maddy's eyes widened in shock. "Oh my god, Sara. I'm so sorry."Sara nodded, her eyes welling up with tears. "It was really tough on her. And on me, too. We didn't have much, and my mom was always worried about my safety and my future. She became really protective, really controlling."Maddy reached out and took Sara's hand. "
Just as Austin's fingers were untangling Sara's hair from his shirt button, an employee walked into the room, a look of surprise on his face. His eyes widened as he took in the scene before him—Austin and Sara, tangled together, their faces inches apart.The employee's eyes darted back and forth between the two of them, and he quickly apologized, "I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt..." before beating a hasty retreat.Austin and Sara quickly scrambled to their feet, their faces flushed with embarrassment. They both tried to call out to the employee to stop him and explain the situation, but it was too late. The employee had already disappeared around the corner.Austin's face turned red with anger as he turned to Sara. "This is all your fault," he spat, his voice low and menacing. "If you hadn't been so clumsy, so stupid, we wouldn't be in this situation."Sara's eyes flashed with anger as she stood up to Austin. "Oh, so now it's my fault?" She shot back, her voice rising. "You'r
Austin leads Sara to a cramped, windowless room deep in the office building. The room is filled with stacks of dusty files and papers, and a single, flickering fluorescent light overhead casts eerie shadows on the walls.Austin gestures to the files. "I need you to go through all of these and organize them by date and category," he says, his voice cold and detached. "It's a tedious task, but I'm sure you're up to it."Sara looks around the room, her eyes widening in dismay. "How long will this take?" she asks, her voice hesitant.Austin shrugs. "As long as it takes. You'll be working on this task exclusively until it's completed. And I expect it to be done perfectly."Sara nods, her shoulders squaring in determination. But as she begins to work on the task, she realizes that something is off. The files seem to be in disarray, and there are strange notes and symbols in the margins.As she delves deeper into the task, Sara starts to uncover a mysterious trail of clues that suggest somet
As the minutes ticked by, Sara grew more and more frustrated with her laptop. She had tried every trick in the book, every troubleshooting technique she knew, but nothing seemed to work. She was starting to feel desperate, like she was going to lose all her work and have to start from scratch.Just as she was about to give up, there was a knock at the door. Sara looked up, expecting to see one of her coworkers or maybe even Austin again. But to her surprise, it was Kevin, his face creased into a warm smile."Hey, Sara, I saw you were still in here, and I thought I'd check on you," he said, his voice friendly and concerned. "Do you need some help?"Sara hesitated for a moment, unsure if she wanted to accept Kevin's offer. But then she looked at her laptop, still refusing to cooperate, and nodded. "Yeah, I could use some help."Kevin walked over to her, his eyes scanning the laptop screen. "What's going on?" he asked, his brow furrowed in concentration.Sara explained the situation, and
Sara groggily opened one eye to find her alarm clock blaring loudly on her nightstand. She let out a groan and rolled over, pulling the covers over her head."Maddy, turn it off!" She mumbled, her voice muffled by the blankets.Madison stomped into Sara's room, looking frazzled. "Come on, Sara! You're going to be late!" she exclaimed, snatching up the alarm clock and silencing it.Sara sat up slowly, rubbing the sleep from her eyes. "Five more minutes," she begged.Madison threw up her hands in exasperation. "You don't have five more minutes! You have an interview in an hour, and you still need to shower and get dressed!"Sara yawned and swung her legs over the side of the bed. "I'll be fine," she said, but Madison was having none of it."No, you won't be fine!" Madison said, grabbing Sara's arm and pulling her out of bed. "You're going to be late, and you're going to blow it! Now come on, let's get moving!"Maddy dragged Sara into the bathroom, her eyes flashing with annoyance. "You'...
