4. Personal Assistant

Maria POV

It was just 6: 30 am in the morning , and my phone kept on buzzing and i swore it was Emma trying to run my battery down, but when i picked it up it wasn't Emma calling, so i answered and i heard a woman's voice an elderly voice for that matter.

"I'm I on to Miss Lopez?" she asked

"Yes ma'am" I answered

     "Congratulations, You have been shortlisted for the job in Ramirez Group of Companies  and you'll be required to be in the building before 10 am for your interview with the CEO " she said

"Thank you so much, I'll be there" I  told her before she ended the call.

    I quickly jumped off from the bed,   headed for the bathroom. Brushed my teeth and took a shower, I was too elated i forgot breakfast.

    I had to look professional, so I searched my wardrobe for a dress, after much ransacking I finally found a chiffon top Emma bought for me on my last birthday, and got a black leather skirt with flat shoes. I packed my hair up in a pony tail, applied a lip gloss and i was good too go.

  After 30minutes, I got to the building "wow, this building is massibve and beautiful" i thought and i couldn't wait to go inside. I checked my wrist watch for the time and it was already 9: 15am, so I strolled into the building and i saw people seated at the reception, and i believe they where also shortlisted for the same interview i was shortlisted for. I spotted an empty chair just beside a young man which i know will be in his mid thirties, and then I went and sat down beside him.

"Good morning" he greeted with a smile

"Good morning" i replied "Are yopu also here for the interview?" i asked

"Yes i am" he replied.

     We chatted for a while, and all of a sudden i noticed staffs who where  in pairs of threes, fours and so on scurry of to their desks and i wondered what could be the cause of the splitting , not until i saw the handsome devil walking into the building, accompanied by a man carrying a briefcase which i believed belonged to that jerk.

"Urghhh" i grunted lightly and the man beside me heard me and gave me a are you okay kinda look and i just smiled in response. can this man just stop showing up at important places, somehow he just ruins it for me .

    30 minutes later

The receptionist came forward and started calling in the applicants one after the other, and each lady that came out after the interview each left crying or frowning. I couldn't help but wonder what they had gone through in there and I prayed mine will be different , while waiting i drifted off to wonderland.

   "Javier"... I whispered against his lips not realizing when he had leaned into each other.

Javier's arms coming around to hold me closer to his chest as I wound my hand through his silky hair. He wasn't holding back at all. He held unto me like I was the air he breathes.

Javier picked me up from the floor by my waist and I wrapped my legs around his waist for support all the while never breaking the kiss. Soon I felt him fall forward, with my back touching the sheets, he kept his weight off me and as I released my legs, Javier broke the kiss, letting me come up for air. He stood at the foot of the bed and as I watched he unlatched his belt at his waist and let his pants fall to the floor with a swoosh sound.

    My eyes widened as I took in his form. He was magnificent just as I thought he'd be. Built like a sculpture of a Greek god, he had all the right proportions, all the right muscles to make any woman fall in love with his body. His skin was flawless without a single flaw or scar  and I only realized that I had gotten up on the bed when I felt the silky softness of his skin under my palms.

   "You're perfect". I whispered in awe, as I traced my fingers down his chest and his taunt abdomen.

I felt him take a deep breath as my hands lowered and I stopped midway down his abdomen when I realized that Javier was standing gloriously naked in front of me. I removed my hands from his body immediately I felt my cheeks heat up in embarrassment.

"Miss Lopez, Miss Lopez"... I felt a light tap on my shoulders and then I opened my eyes.

"it is a dream" I thought

"It's your turn, the boss will see you now, the first door on your left when you get to the 6th floor." the lady at the reception said.

"Thank you" I said as i walked to the stairs

        When i got to the sixth floor i walked to the door as directed by the receptionist, i wasn't sure if i should knock or open the door.  Courtesy demands that i knock first , so i knocked lightly on the door but there was no response , i knocked again, but still came no response so i gently opened the door and walked in.

       He was sitting on his huge revolving chair with his legs popped up on the desk. He was leaning back on his chair with his eyes closed and hair dishevelled. He looked like he was drained. Yeah right! What do you expect from an arrogant brute. Seeing him walk into the building , and the way his staffs where scurrying around when he came in, i didn't need a soothsayer to tell me he runs the company.

    He opened his eyes as soon as I walked in and before he could utter a word, i spoke.

"Good morning Sir" I greeted.

"We meet again Ms Lopez" he said with a grin

Judging by the way his lips tilted at the corner into that oh_so_wretchedly_handsome smirk, i knew my face had paled considerably. He quickly gathered some files on his desk and handed them over tome and said "i need these files before 8am tomorrow morning"

I was confused , "I don't understand Sir" i asked with confusion written all over my face. And I'm sure he enjoyed what he was doing because he didn't stop grinning.

"Get to work" was the only thing he said.

The only thing that played in my mind was that i'd gotten the job, but working with this brute would be like a jail sentence.
