Devil controls my life

Selena entered Julian’s office with a steaming cup of coffee, carefully placing it on his desk. She half-expected his usual sharp critique or, at the very least, his cold indifference. Instead, he glanced up from the document he was reading and said, “Thank you.” The two simple words froze her mid-step. She blinked, her mind racing. Had she misheard him? Julian Grant thanking someone? Still, she managed to recover quickly and replied, “You’re welcome,” before turning to leave. “Wait,” his voice stopped her in her tracks, smooth and commanding. Selena sighed inwardly and turned back toward him. “Yes?” Julian leaned back in his chair, his piercing gaze studying her for a moment before he casually said, “I wanted to inform you that I’ll be working through the weekend. There’s some business to attend to with the sister company.” Selena raised an eyebrow, already suspicious. “What does that have to do with me?” “You’ll need to be available,” Julian replied smoothly. “Isn't i

Petty people aren't worth my energy

Selena left the garden, her thoughts spiraling. Cassandra’s nonchalant attitude had shaken her. She couldn’t understand how someone could take such risks. The industry was notorious for its strict policies about dating and fraternizing with colleagues. Companies often imposed morality clauses, especially on actresses, to maintain their "wholesome" image. Even during Selena's heyday as an A-list star, she had been barred from dating. Publicly, she was supposed to seem available, approachable—an unattainable dream for her fans. Any romantic rumors could tarnish her career in an instant. And here Cassandra was, brazenly ignoring all those unspoken rules. Selena sighed, shaking her head. "She’s playing with fire," she muttered to herself, heading toward the canteen for lunch. The company canteen was buzzing with chatter, employees laughing and gossiping in their cliques. Selena grabbed a tray and loaded it with a simple meal. She didn’t have much of an appetite after the bizarre mo

A possessive kiss

She blinked, slightly confused but nodded. As the door clicked shut behind them, she was suddenly very aware of the space between them. Julian stood just a little too close, his posture tense, his eyes searching hers. There was something different in his stare, something that wasn’t just anger or disappointment. Something more personal. “You’ve been awfully distracted today,” he said, his voice tight with an emotion Selena couldn’t quite place. “Were you paying attention during that meeting at all?” Selena opened her mouth to reply, but he cut her off, his gaze flitting to the door where the producer had just exited. “You were practically glued to him,” Julian said, his words sharp, tinged with something unspoken. “Is he your type? The young, handsome, confident type?” Her eyes widened in surprise. She tried to shake her head, to deny it, but Julian didn’t let her. He stepped closer, his breath warm against her skin, and for the first time, she felt a hint of vulnerability from

Office bullies

Selena's lips still tingling from the forceful kiss he had planted on her. She was furious—livid, actually. She could feel her cheeks burning with a mix of anger and embarrassment.“That devil!” she muttered under her breath as she marched down the hallway. “Who does he think he is? Playing with my face, throwing his absurd possessiveness at me, and then—then kissing me like he owns me? Ugh!”She clutched her chest dramatically as if she could physically pull the frustration out. “I’m not some item he can lay claim to!” she seethed. “And why—why does my heart still race like an idiot? Stupid, traitorous body!” She kicked at the air, muttering a string of curses that would have made a sailor blush.As she made her way to the canteen to grab a coffee and calm herself down, she ran into a group of female employees. The "mean girls," as Selena had dubbed them internally, were waiting for her like hyenas circling their prey.“Oh, look, it’s the princess herself,” said Ashley, the unoffici

Smug, insufferable jerk

Selena gritted her teeth as she carried yet another heavy box toward the storage room, her arms trembling under the weight. “This is the last one,” she muttered to herself, her voice dripping with sarcasm. “I swear, if I drop dead, someone better carve on my tombstone: *Here lies Selena Frost, buried under the mountain of pettiness known as corporate life.*” Her footsteps echoed in the quiet hallway. Most of the employees had already left, leaving her alone to finish the so-called “important” task. Sweat beaded on her forehead as she pushed the door to the storage room open with her foot, muttering, “Just you wait, Ashley. One day, karma’s going to—” “Talking to yourself again, Ms. Frost?” Selena froze mid-step, nearly dropping the box.She turned to see Julian leaning casually against the wall, arms crossed and a maddening smirk plastered across his face. His dark eyes glinted with amusement, and his tailored suit made him look annoyingly perfect even at the end of the workda

Locked together in the storage room

Selena’s heart raced as Julian’s hand clamped over her mouth, pulling her behind a towering shelf filled with dusty files and old office supplies. The dimly lit storage room suddenly felt claustrophobic, their bodies pressed close together. Julian’s scent—a mix of cedarwood and something distinctly him—filled her senses, making her pulse quicken.“Who left the storage room open again?” a guard’s voice grumbled from outside.Selena stiffened, her eyes wide as she looked at Julian. His expression was calm, but his dark eyes glinted with amusement.“Probably those careless employees,” the guard continued, his voice fading as he muttered to himself. Then came the unmistakable click of a lock.The sound echoed like a death knell in the silent room. Selena froze, her gaze snapping to Julian, whose hand was still over her mouth. He seemed entirely unbothered, his smirk growing as his eyes locked onto hers.A wave of heat rushed through her, her cheeks burning. She pushed his hand away, her v
