I walked into the massive building, careful not to let the mud on my shoes stain the sparkling white tiles. I received an email yesterday that I had passed the job interview so here I was on my first day as a secretary. Walking over to a lady behind the reception, I gave her a sweet smile. “ Umm, excuse me. I'm Lillian Ace." She grasped.“ Ohh, our new employee!” I nodded, still smiling even though my lips hurt. “Give me a minute,” she said then typed something on the computer before turning to face me again. She looked me up and down slowly with a smug smile on her face. I suddenly felt self-conscious. I was wearing a sunset yellow dress and a pair of white Stilettos. “ Is this how you dressed in your previous work?” She snarled. My previous work was at a café, I wore jeans every single day, but I wasn't going to blurt that out. “Well, it's decent enough."I retorted. She smacked her red painted lips shaking her head. “ Miss, we have a dress code here. All corporate wear, Monday to Fridays." Swallowing the tantrum that was about to escape my lips I spoke.“This is a corporate dress." She shook her head, disagreeing with me.“You are dressed like you're going to the beach, go home and put on something more appropriate." I stared at her in disbelief. My house was an hour drive from here and the only money left with me right now was for groceries. If I go back home now, then I would have to walk for almost two hours to get back here. When she saw I was unmoving, she snapped. “ Do you want this job or not ?” Her voice high-pitched, attracting the attention of other people in the building. I was embarrassed, I wasn't even sure I had the right outfit at home.“Well, where I live is pretty far. So, going back wouldn't be easy." She looked me up her down, her brown eyes brimming with disgust. Tilting her head, she scrutinized me. “ Seems to me that you probably don't have any appropriate work clothes." She walked around the desk and stood right in front of my face. “ Or you simply can't afford one." She picked up the edge of my dress, holding it like it was shit. I finally flared up, this lady had been rude since the moment I walked in, and I wasn't going to let anyone belittle me. I slapped her hands off my dress. “ Don't touch me! “ Deep down, I knew I didn't have any proper clothes. I wasn't rich or anything, but I could afford at least two-square meals a day. I was initially planning on calling Jade to lend me some clothes, she was a good friend of mine and my roommate. She worked at a decent company, didn't pay much, but she was still living her best life. “ You better hurry, the boss comes by 9 so you have less than 25 minutes left ."She folded her hands on her chest, a smug smile on her face. There was no way on earth I'd make it back in 25 minutes. The stubborn side of me wanted to just waltz out and never come back, but I knew better. Jobs like this were difficult to come by, if I let this one go, then I'm doomed. As much as I hated to beg people, especially the likes of this receptionist, I had no choice. So I swallowed my little pride and tried reasoning with her. “ I could wear something better tomorrow, but today wouldn't work. I won't be able to get back in 25 minutes even if I used a jet ." She snorted. “ Then fucking teleport! ” Turning on her heels, she tossed her hair in my face and walked back behind the desk. I stood rooted to the ground like a statue, not knowing what to do. I felt so many eyes on me, this was really embarrassing. The next moment I turned on my heels and exited the building. I walked as fast as I could, trying not to trip on my shaky heels. I reached for my phone in my purse, wanting to call Jade. Her workplace shouldn't be far from here, if she could help me, then I'll kiss her toes when I get home. Tears were clouding my vision, I couldn't even see the screen properly. I wasn't paying attention to my surroundings and the next second I bumped roughly into someone, landing on my ass and smacking several office files on the slightly damp concrete floor. My phone was tossed to a corner, probably broken too. Scrambling to my feet, I began apologizing, picking up the already damp papers. I looked up from my squatting position to find a pair of gray eyes looking down at me. He was tall with a mass of black hair toppling over his shoulders. He was looking at me like he was about to snap my neck. “ I'm sorry, I'm so sorry."I mumbled. It was then I noticed I had also smacked his phone to the ground. I stared in horror at the broken screen. This phone could cost my life. I had seen enough phones to differentiate between expensive and cheap ones. Mine was the cheapest, but this could cost a fortune. “Get up !”His voice was hoarse. I rose to my feet immediately, holding a few papers that I managed to pick up. “Do you know how long it took me to sort out those documents?” I flinched.“ I'm sorry, I wasn't looking. I'm deeply sorry.” He stepped closer, his cologne making my body go rigid. “ Sorry, isn't going to sort the papers out. Do you know how long it took me to prepare this? Not only did you destroy my phone, but the papers are goddamn soaked! ” He snarled. I was so unlucky, every day of my life had also been full of bad luck. There was never a day when things could go smoothly,I was still wondering why a plane hadn't crashed on my head yet . I heard the clacking of heels and a grasp. “ You again! ”. The receptionist shrieked. I turned to look at her, my hands trembling. We were in the middle of a walkway. Some people were already turning their heads to stare. “ Oh my god, sir …. I'm so sorry.” She walked up to where I stood. Grabbing the papers from my hands, she took a look. Her eyes widened as she barked at me. “ Isn't this .......you pest,I knew you were a nuisance !” I don't tolerate insults but right now, I am in the wrong so to minimize the situation, I'd rather accept whatever words she chose to throw at me. I had a feeling that if people weren't around, she would have slapped me hard. “ Mr. Kent, isn't the presentation tomorrow? What are we going to do?” I blinked, realization dawning on me. I might have just ruined something critical, and I hoped my guts were wrong but from the looks of things. This man was probably the boss. “ You !" He pointed a finger at me. “ Come with me.”

Lillian I followed them to the elevator looking like a puppy drenched in cold water. The receptionist whose name turned out to be Helena had been glaring daggers at me. I noticed that some buttons on her shirt had popped open. She had been arching her back, pushing up her already exposed boobs. Obviously, her squeaking like a church rat all the way to the elevator wasn't to annoy me but to impress her boss. Mr. Stone face hadn't even glanced at her the whole time. He had glanced at me once when I almost tripped and had to grab his hand for support. The look he gave me was enough to slit my throat. He was scary and cold. We entered his office which was grand and bigger than the apartment I lived in. “Get me my work file and the sketchbook."He ordered. Helena stomped out of the office immediately leaving me and Stone face alone. He turned to face me, taking a step towards me. “ You will type out every single page until your fingers break, and then you'll print out each doc

Zayden I watched as she ran out of my office sobbing. Today has been one of the worst days of my life. My eyes fell on the stack of flies on her desk. She only managed to type 50 documents and didn't even print them. I ran my hand through my hair in frustration. If I don't get this done before tomorrow, then I might lose the contract and then Aiden would be on cloud nine. My father made us compete, he always made us compete even if we were siblings. This time, whoever manages to get the contract with a neighboring tech company would get additional 5 percent shares from my father. Originally, I should remain the CEO, but Aiden had been creating a fuss about it. And now, that red-haired girl was about to sabotage my plan. I now regretted telling her she was laid off. That was much too easy, She should be punished for ruining my presentation. I picked up my phone to call Helena, those documents weren't going to sort themselves. “Don't go home yet, we have to finish up be

Lillian I have been staring at the mail I received this morning for the past one-hour now. I cried my eyes out yesterday thinking I was now fired and had to continue my job as a dishwasher at the bar. Yesterday I managed to go to my shift after crying at my parent's grave. I had been so moody until I returned home by 3am this morning. My boss reduced my pay, saying I was late and there was no wine glass to serve the customers. But, at least I've got some extra dollars to spare. I came home looking like a ghost about to drown myself in self-pity then start another job hunt when I received the mail. For once, it seems like the earth was in my favor. “Are you not going to go ?” Jade asked as she got dressed for work. I sighed. “ If I don't I'll continue to be miserable”. “Exactly!” She exclaimed, making me chuckle. “ Girl, this is the highest paying job you've gotten in your lifetime. Yesterday was a mistake and that's that. Today is a new day”. I screamed Into my pillow. “

Zayden I looked from the trunk of the minivan and back at my secretary. For the first time in my life I was dumbfounded. I had no words. I looked over to the driver. “ I swear on my grandma, sir, I have no hand in this.” He spoke. I looked over at Mr. Ace. She shifted uncomfortably on her feet, pouting her lips. I honestly did not know whether to be angry or not. She had just spent thousands of dollars on food stuffs that were enough to throw a party. The groceries ranged from all kinds of fruits to cereals, snacks,rice, pastries,fruit drinks and even wine. I ran a hand through my hair in frustration. Maybe I should have just laid her off and saved myself the trouble. The only reason I gave her my credit card was to appease my conscience for yesterday. “Mrs. Ace, please tell me that you at least got yourself more than one dress”. I sighed. “I thought you said just one blazer for the conference”. She whined. I only stared at her. A mixture of unknown emotions swirling

Zayden As I stepped into the boardroom, my father was tapping his fingers on the table impatiently, with Aiden beside him. There were two other board members in the room, and I hoped that the issue hadn't reached their ears. "You called for me?" I asked directly, skipping all formalities. My father slid a file over to me. "What's this nonsense, Zayden." He said with a tone of disapproval. It was the contract I signed with a neighbouring company just yesterday, and now they wanted to terminate it. I tried maintaining a straight face, but I was taken aback. "This is not possible," I said. "I received complaints, Zayden, and I didn't like what I heard . Since when did you become so incompetent? " He raised his voice, expressing disappointment in my work. I gritted my teeth trying to stay calm. "Enlightenment me ". " The presentation you made yesterday doesn't align with what's written here. Your model of device is the same as our outdated products, did you think someone in this m

Lillian I couldn't believe what was happening. I was in the bathroom, dealing with unexpected menstrual cramps. I usually get these cramps before my period, but this time, I ignored the signs, attributing the pain to hunger because I hadn't eaten a good breakfast. I was panicking because I had stained my underwear and was trying to clean it with soap and water. I wrapped a towel around my body and started pacing, feeling the heavy flow. I knew I couldn't ask Helena for the bathroom earlier before Mr. Kent returned; she had been giving me dirty looks. My only hope was rushing home but now that was out of the option. I spend the next thirty minutes thinking of what to do. My underwear was bloodied and I just finished washing it. Thankfully there are no noticeable stains on my dress. Just as I was pacing, I felt a warm liquid trail down my thighs. I looked down, I had to cover my mouth to stifle my sob. I usually have a heavy flow, and at this rate, I'll get the white towe

Lillian "I'm having a flow, the type that happens monthly." I said clearing my throat not to look awkward. He dipped his hands in his pockets, straightening his stance. " You'll have to use more words, Mrs Ace ." I swallowed ,wishing the ground would open up and swallow me. " And please get up from the floor!" He scolded. As much as I wanted to, I couldn't because I was a thousand per cent sure that the white towel was stained. From the pain in my lower abdomen, I could tell I was leaking like my kitchen sink ."I...I...can't ". " You can't?... Mrs ace, do I have to remind you that we have a lot of work to do ?" I looked up to meet his stare; our eyes locked for a moment until his eye trailed down to my chest. I did my best to assume that he didn't just look at my boobs." You don't understand, I really can't ". I told him, a worried expression plastered on my face. "Then make me understand and do it quickly!" His eyes were still on my boobs. How can he still keep a

Zayden I was beginning to think maybe I should just dismiss her. Dealing with women was more exhilarating than with men. If I hadn't knocked then she probably wouldn't have come out. Even now she still had spent almost 10mins in the bathroom. I sighed heavily and set myself to work. I'll just lay the groundwork today and then begin properly tomorrow. And that's why I need extra hands, editing the template wouldn't be easy. Just then, she finally came out of the bathroom. The image of her wrapped in my towel suddenly flashed before my eyes. I had to shake my head to clear my mind of those thoughts. Standing in front of me, fidgeting with her dress, she spoke, " Umm, Mr Kent, thank you for the umm....stuff". My eyes went to her chest, something I found hard to stop doing since I saw her cleavage. "Get to work, start with editing the files I sent to you !" I said coldly. She stood there for a while before turning to walk away but paused. "Umm, is it alright to ask

Zayden I opened the door for her, my eyes never leaving hers. It's not something I usually do but I just can't help it. Her cheeks turned pink." This is the first time you're opening the door for me. Did you perhaps hit your head on something?" I was shocked at what I did." I'm trying to be a gentleman,here." She chuckled." We both know you're not." I shrugged, getting into the driver's seat. We just left the registry. We were now married, I somehow found it hard to believe but she signed the papers. I had expected it would be difficult to convince her but here we were. There was this bubbly feeling that had been messing with my thinking since last night. She was yet to sign the contract, though. According to her, She would make the rules, and I was to oblige. " Wait, do not tell anyone we are married. No one can find out about this." She grasped, worry written all over her pretty face. I took a left turn, heading for the office." As long as my dad doesn't request a w

Lillian The first thing I noticed was how tall Zayden was, he had to bend to pass through the door. And then someone followed behind him, shorter but he occupied space. I stiffened, my fingers trembling slightly. Why was he here?He smiled at me." Lillian, it's been so long." I gritted my teeth; how could he be so jovial after everything he put me through? " I told Victoria it was you I saw being rushed into the ward but she wouldn't believe me." He chimed. "What do you want?" I said, cooly.Jade and Zayden were watching. Jade had only heard fragments of stories about my foster family, but Zayden knew nothing, and I wanted it to remain that way. He glanced around." If we could have some privacy." I nodded at Jade. She nodded back and left, but Zayden remained sitting. I saw the hesitation in his eyes. He didn't trust Thomas to be alone with me. I won't blame him, my father had the face of a criminal. " Come on, Zayden, I need to speak with my daughter," Thomas spoke with

Lillian I opened my eyes to darkness. My back hurt, my legs were numb and I couldn't move my hands. I groaned, my body felt extremely heavy. I tried taking in my surroundings; despite the darkness, it felt familiar. Where was I? A noise startled me; I turned in the direction of the sound. Footsteps started approaching. I attempted to stand then I realised I was tied to a chair. I tugged violently, hoping to loosen the rope a little, but it was no use; they were the size of my palm. I tried calming my breathing but they came out loudly. The lights were turned on, almost blinding me and causing my vision to blur a little. I couldn't make out the silhouette in front of me immediately. Slowly, my vision returned; there was a man. He stood tall and broad. I couldn't see his face because his head was almost touching the light bulb casting a bright light on his face. " Sweetheart I've missed you." He spoke. I froze. I recognised that voice. He raised my chin to l

ZaydenShe trembled, her knees jerking violently. "Hey, are you okay?" I reached for her but she stumbled backwards, knocking over the wine glass that was on the island and onto the floor. The first tear trickled down her cheeks as she grasped violently. She was losing balance, I did not understand what was happening. My first thought was that she might be asthmatic with the way she was grasping violently for air."Lillian, calm down. Breathe, breathe okay!"I held her shoulders but they were stiff and cold. Her whole body was stiff." Noah!" I had no idea what was happening but it was freaking me out. Her whole body started jerking erratically. She slipped out of my hold and stumbled on the floor right into the broken wine glass. "Fuck! Lillian calm down!" I ran to her side immediately, trying to lift her but she was shaking damn too hard. Her whole body was sweaty as tiny cries left her lips. I cursed "Lillian, look at me." I held her face, trying to get her attention b

Lillian "You are not supposed to be in the kitchen, Miss," Noah complained for the hundredth time. I glanced at him and continued making dinner. "I find more joy in eating the food I made." He mumbled something but remained silent. When I was done, I set the table and sat to eat. It was almost nine and Zayden hadn't come out of his room. I didn't even know he had left the office I only asked that he leave my space, not the damn building. Noah cleared his throat and I glanced at him." what?" He had been standing there and giving me the strangest look ever. He hesitated but eventually spoke." I don't know what's going on between you two but I think you should let it slide, that's if he had properly apologized." I sighed, reaching for my wrist that didn't hurt anymore. I knew I was dragging this out too long. How long has it been, four days? Five? I was angry that he thought so low of me, a part of me bitter that he only wanted my body, as for my wrist. It didn'

Zayden Fuck!Fuck! Fuck! I'm an idiot, I messed up big time. I saw the look on her face before she left. Anger, disappointment and fear. I knew them all too well. First I had called her a prostitute when I was clearly the one seducing her, then I had hurt her. Maybe I should put a leash on my tongue and my temper since I had no idea how to control them. She did not come out till morning, and then the next two days were a living hell.She avoided me like a plague. It was goddamn frustrating. She didn't talk to me; she always stayed in her room till the sun rose, and she ignored my calls and texts. She refused to let me drive her and she always stood at least three feet away from me. When I tried to go closer, she'd move ten steps away. I was losing my mind. I hated it, I did not like the burning feeling growing in my chest each day. Today wasn't any different. She came in today with Aiden. I didn't want her to get more angry at me so I remained calm as I watched A

Lillian I was a hot slippery mess. Zayden knew how to use his tongue, exploring places I didn't know were sensitive. I grabbed his thick hair, pressing his face against my pussy as I arched my back in pleasure. "Ahh, Zayden!" I cried, my mind blurry with ecstasy. "Slower!" I moaned. My hips jerked as he hit a spot. My toes were curling, my eyes rolling back into my head as my whole body convulsed. The orgasm hit me like a tornado, my body trembling violently. I watched with half-closed eyes as he pulled away, licking his lips like a hungry beast. His eyes were filled with lust. The next thing I heard was the unbuckling of his belt. My eyes roamed his body till they went below his waist. His hands were moving swiftly and it suddenly occurred to me what was about to happen next. I suddenly panicked as he grabbed my hips and spread my legs apart. I can't do this. I can't, at least not now. His zipper came loose and he reached inside his pants. I could already picture h

Lillian I had never felt this relieved in my life on finding out that it was Zayden's house help that arrived. Aiden was already halfway through the back door when I called him back. " You should leave, I can't afford to have another heart attack." I chuckled as I collapsed on the couch. Aiden checked his watch." It's barely five, but I'll leave soon. Or my brother might have my head." We chatted some more with me nervously checking the wall clock every minute. He finally got up to leave."From now on, speak to me at the office." I walked him to the door. He pouted." You don't want anyone finding out about us ?" I rolled my eyes." Stop making it sound like we're doing something bad." He laughed, gently raising my hand to his lips." I'll see you soon, Lilian." I smiled at him and watched as he left. I could finally breathe like a human. Zayden returned when it was almost nightfall. I had prepared dinner myself despite Noah's objection, and I was stuffing m

Zayden I remained calm, my face devoid of any emotion, because that was what they wanted. Any flicker of emotion I let slip through would be their tool for manipulation. " You want me to step down?" I raised a brow, my teeth grinding against each other. My father kept his shoulders high." Yes, and we have valid reasons to do so." I snorted. "And they are?" The other members remained quiet, waiting for my father to speak. "We've thought this through and made a careful decision. You are no longer competent enough." He finished. I should have expected his vague reason. Why put me as CEO since I was eighteen, only to throw me out now? I didn't think this was all, there was more to it. " Did the deal with Hale Corporation fall through?" I asked Instead, trying so hard to maintain my cool demeanour. He retorted." They haven't given us feedback yet." I relaxed further into my seat, my eyes fixated on him. I stopped seeing him as a father a very long time ago. The on
