The bedroom, like all rooms in the house, was huge with an even bigger bed. Everything was in place, only the bed and a few littered clothes were the only things out of place.
Andrea tried hard not to think about the reason why clothes laid on the floor and tried to focus on the reason why she was in Lucian's house when should be having a peaceful time at the office, away from his antics.
"No?" She yelled back, her anger slightly sipping out. "You don't exactly have a choice in the matter. You're the one who set up the meeting, you can't just not show up."
"No, I don't want to. I am sure you can make an excuse as to my absence." He mumbled and rolled on his front, planting his head sideways against the bed as he tried to cover his eyes with his hand.
"Oh no, you don't. Get your ass up!" She repeated as she walked towards him.
She got to the right side of the bed and flipped the sheets off him. Big mistake. "Holy Shit!" She screamed as she came face to butt with his bare ass, her face reddened with embarrassment. She tried to cover him back up but his ass was already scorched in her brain.
"What the heck is going on?" The Blondie yelled out, the look of confusion on her face was priceless.
"Language Andrea, I have a guest." He muttered. "Meet Carol, Carol meet…"
"Cassie," Blondie interrupted.
"What?" Asked Lucian.
"My name is Cassie, not Carol."
He squinted his eyes, obviously not comprehending what Cassie had just said. "I'm sure it's Carol."
Cassie/Carol stared daggers at him and if eyes could stab daggers Andrea was sure there would be one in Lucian's heart. "Are you saying I don't know my own name?"
"I didn't say that…" He started to say but Andrea interrupted.
"Enough of this?" She yelled and walked to the other side.
"What the hell?" Yelled Cassie as Andrea pulled her out of the bed. The poor blond slipped out of the sheet stark naked, she clutched her bosom hiding them from view.
It took Andrea everything not to react but this was nothing unusual and it wasn't like she was expecting something else to have happened underneath the sheets.
She instantly felt sorry for the lady and tried to make this less embarrassing. She couldn't imagine what she would do if this ever happened to her. She would probably run away from embarrassment.
"I am sorry but you have to leave now." She apologized, picking up the feminine items that littered all around the floor and even trailed out the door. Just how much in a hurry were they to get into each other's pants?
She shook the mental image away, it was bad enough that she had seen both of them naked. She had been so preoccupied with getting to his room that she had not noticed the items littered on the floor on her way in.
"Lucian," the blond protested. She looked like she was about to let out a lot of complaints but Lucian interrupted her.
"I will see you some other time Carol, give me a call." He said with a wink. It was enough to silence whatever protest that was about to spill from Cassie's lips, she didn't even mind that he called her the wrong name.
Cassie blushed profusely and graciously accepted the clothes from Andrea and followed her out of the bed. "I want you dressed by the time I'm back and I swear to God even if it means I would have to take you to the showers myself." She rushed out without waiting for his reply but not before she heard him chuckle.
Gosh, she hated his guts and she hated how aware he was of his sexuality. She often thought he was taunting her but she figured she was reading too much into it. She didn't really mean she would take him to the showers herself but she had to go all out to get Lucian to listen.
As soon as the door closed, the blond's attitude changed. "Get your hands off me," she muttered darkly.
Andrea withdrew her hands like she had touched hot coal. This wasn't unusual, oftentimes, the women he brought were always very rude to her. "Philly would drive you home. I will go tell him to get the car ready." Andrea said with barely a hint of how she truly felt, a smile masked the urge to rip out the blond's hair with her hands. She walked ahead leaving the blond to fend for herself.
It was easier to call them by the color of their heads, trying to keep track of their names was exhausting but the sad part was she never forgot. In a few days to come, Cassie would call Andrea asking for Lucian and Andrea would once again relive this night but she could bet her bottom dollar that Lucian was never going to call Cassie.
Unfortunately, she was always the one the ladies got to as Lucian would never pick up their calls. She sighed as she headed for the telephone hanging off the side of the wall. Two months into this and one would think she was used to it already.
He picked on the first ring. "Philly, could you get the car ready. Lucian's house guest is about to leave."
"Yes ma'am," Philly replied politely but Andrea heard him stifle a laugh.
She didn't find the situation funny in any way and she wished she didn't have to do this but she was stuck. Well, she guessed it was fine for Philly to laugh, she was certain if Tracy had told her about this she would find it funny but being in it was the least bit funny.
She returned the telephone, now all she had to do was get Lucian out of the house, she hoped it would be simpler. If Lucian truly didn't want to go for the meeting, there was nothing she could do to make him go.
She slowly made her way back to the room, worried that Lucian would still be in the same state that she left him. They were already twenty minutes late, she wondered how they were going to make it to the meeting without finding all the investors gone.She had told the Manager to try to stall long enough for her to get him to the company but she wondered how long he would be able to stall. She got to the door and carefully turned the knob, her heart in her throat.The sight before her left her stunned that all she could do was close the door as quietly as she could. She didn't want to make too much noise. The bed had been empty and there was only one reason for that, Lucian had gotten out of bed.She heaved a sigh of relief and leaned against the wall. Her legs slowly began to lose their grip and she sank to her butt
Andrea was grateful she was not the one driving; she would have been too edgy. However, getting a ride to the meeting also meant she would have to come back to get her car but it was better this way. She did not trust that Lucian would not ask the driver to take him elsewhere. It would not be the first time."Whatever memory you are thinking of, staring at me like that would not change it," Lucian said suddenly, his smirk wide.She raised her upper lips, sneering at him then scoffed and turned her face away. She wished the car would move even faster but she had already told the driver to speed up, any more speed and it would be illegal.She wondered what joy he got out of making this difficult for both of them. It was exhausting. A lot of times she had thought of giving up but the pay was too good and not to talk about the convention that was coming up in less than a month. No matter what happened, she had to make sure she attended. Lucian was a sure ticket to attend the convention s
Andrea squinted her eyes, here she thought she would finally get some time to rest before the jarring schedule of the day. She knew she had no excuse and even if there was any she could think of, the fact that Lucian wanted her to join the meeting was enough to scrap all her excuses.“Can I say no?”He shook his head, “Don’t be a sourpuss.” He muttered and threw the door open. “After you, miss.” He gave a mock bow as he held the door open.Andrea swore to the heavens but she took the step towards the conference room. What other option did she have? She walked past him through the open door and made her way into the conference room.“I heard you,” Lucian whispered directly into her ears as he walked past her towards the table.The room was mostly empty and the only occupants were two gentlemen, one looked relatively older than the other and they both stared at them as they walked in.“My apologies for keeping you waiting,” Lucian announced.“It is no problem,” the older of the gentleme
“I can be convinced to attend a total of three meetings.”As soon as the words left his mouth, Andrea knew the family was completely sold. She sighed, this was not the first time she had seen him in action but it was still mesmerizing to watch. His confidence was one of the things she loved about him. Not to mention, his quick decision-making. He knew exactly what he wanted and never bent for the other person.“Deal.” Mr. Pattinson yelled out.Andrea could not blame him, Lucian was a busy man and if there was anything he hated, it was meetings. Getting three out of him was unheard of.Lucian grinned and rose to his feet with his hands stretched out. “As soon as you have the contract ready, you may send it.”“Thank you, Lucian,” Felix said as he grabbed Lucian's open palm.“It was nice doing business with you,” Lucian muttered and began walking out, Andrea wasted no time in grabbing her phone and rushing after him.Lucian held the door open for her. “Thank you.” She mumbled and rushed
Lucian did not take his eyes off her, he did not want to miss any tell in her expression. Andrea was as open as a book though there were a few times he could not guess what was going in her head but one thing he was sure of was she sucked at lying. “I am not going to let it go Andrea and as you know I tend to get what I want.” At first, he had been teasing about wanting to know what she was thinking about but the longer this dragged on, the more curious he became. She had been quiet during the ride and he had wanted to have a conversation. At that moment he had not really cared what he had been thinking about but right now he was completely invested and he knew he would not let it go unless he found out. “Fine, I did promise and unlike you, I keep my word.” Lucian faked a gasp. “What does that even mean?” “You said you want to know what I was thinking about in the car.” “Exactly! So you did know what I was talking about?” “Well, I was thinking about the first time I saw Lillian
"What are you doing here?" Lucian asked with disdain, one would think he wasn't pleased to see his best friends. "This right here, is why we are the only ones who can stand your ass." Dustin the tallest of them said. Two plopped on his office couch while Dustin took the seat directly opposite Lucian's. He lifted his legs and gently placed them on the office table. Lucian growled baring his teeth, they transformed a little to show fangs as his teeth tripled in size. "Easy wolf," Dustin chuckled, taking his legs off the table. Lucian's fangs easily transformed back and Dustin couldn't help his smile. No matter how many times he saw it was always amazing to watch. This was what set aside the royal family from the rest of the werewolves, the ability to transform wh
Andrea woke up with a start, immediately sitting upright. No matter how many times he heard it, her alarm clock was still a shock every time. It was as loud as it was annoying. She stopped it with a loud bang and literally jumped out of bed. She threw her legs to the side and her body immediately followed. She rubbed her eyes as she made her way to the bathroom. A loud shriek immediately followed by a sharp pain woke her up completely. "Ow!" She yelled and bent low to pick her cat who she had accidentally stepped on. "Mikey!" She called the feral monster. "That hurt!" The poor creature looked like it was happy to give her a taste of what it had felt earlier. "It wasn't my fault," she argued. "You know I always come by the way every morning. Why aren't you in your bed? My rug is not for sleeping." The cat me
Lucian was on a short fuse. He was exceedingly irritated. The lady in front of him was leaning too forward, her bosom was on his table in full view. It was like she was offering a dish and one thing was certain, he didn't like what he saw. She didn't even try to hide her intention as if he couldn't already smell it. He felt like sneezing. The instant she had walked through the door, he knew exactly what she wanted and she didn't hide it. She had swayed her way to the seat, moving her hips a little too hard that Lucian was worried she would break something. She finally sat down as noisily as possible, vibrating every inch of her body. If it wasn't that he was in a dire need of a proper assistant he would have taken her offer. Not that he was interested but basically his mind interpreted it as free food and f

It has been over three months since she started working for Lucian and it has been her worst time ever. From cleaning after him to making sure he attended meetings, to getting rid of the numerous girls he never seemed to run out of. The only moments of peace she had ever gotten were the first days she started working when he wasn't around.She sighed as she honked, barking curses at the driver who had abruptly stopped for no reason and she had almost hit him. He didn't even apologize as he drove away, flipping her off. "Ugh!" She yelled.She should be in her office typing away as usual but no, here she was driving through the freaking highway because some maniac had refused to show up for a meeting they had single-handedly set up.Less than five minutes to the meeting and she had not been able to reach him.

Thursday came sooner than expected and Andrea noticed that she was slowly getting used to the pattern. As monotonous as it seemed it was less stressful than her former job and she couldn't help liking it.Dalton was beginning to be a major part of her day. He always came to get her during lunch and waved her goodbye as she left for the day. He was jolly and nice enough that she noticed she was beginning to enjoy his presence.She heard the elevator open. It was break time already, she had hardly observed that time was fast spent. His footsteps hit the floor with a soft tap as he made his way to her. She thought it sounded a bit different but it wasn't enough for it to pique her interest.Still typing away she called out, "Hello Dalton, I didn't think it was lunch already."
She had moved out of the way to avoid blocking others who were coming into the building. The security guard didn't stop until he was two feet away from her. A little bit into her personal space, she subconsciously took a step back."Your tag please?" He said matter-of-factly."What?" She asked, not understanding what he had just asked for."Ma'am, I am going to assume there is nothing wrong with your hearing but you saying 'what' at everything I say is becoming quite annoying."Andrea's brows dipped and she squinted her eyes. She could feel her anger rising. Aside from the fact that she already went through a lot this morning, now she has to face a rude guard.She didn't remember seeing anyone with a tag and Lucian&mdas
