Riya's POV
My eyes popped out when I saw Will stretching at the front side of the table. What was he doing here? For a second I stood there collecting myself together and saw him pacing towards me. "Good morning, Miss Riya!" I tried hard to keep up my professional face but traitors never gave up so easily. "Huh? Good morning! Ah... I'm seeing Mr Blues...."
"That's me. Welcome. I was waiting for you." I had a last resort in my head, 'he must be messing around and I don't want him to be fired.' "Actually I have an appointment with President of this company who is now the chairperson of my company. So if you're kidding right now I'm not responsible for..."
"I am Will Blues. President of Blues Incorporation. And now I would really want you to have a seat cause you need it." he signaled me to the meeting room covered by thick, translucent glass. He sat on the biggest chair which was supposedly for Mr President with a wide smirk on his face and ocean blue eyes not leaving my any moment. My heart raced since the beginning of the day and now it had more surprises to beat more violently. He gazing at me like he would eat me alive, so dangerous and mysterious that gave burning chills all over my body and me glancing at him occasionally while setting up my laptop and the projector screen. Of course a helper was present to help me but still chose to do it on my own. "Can I use your rest room please?" I sounded more like a helpless rabbit, tryna free herself from the merciless lion's paws. "Yeah sure! First right." he signaled. Without wasting any other second I rushed inside the rest room. It was just as spacious as the office. I looked myself in the mirror. My checks were burning through out the time. Even though my skin color is so special that it's hard to notice that I'm blushing or not but right now I was able to see deep crimson red all over my face staining deeply. Splashing some cold water I freshened up myself. "You've to focus!" telling me I got out to see him being the same. "Son of a bitch!" gave a little shake to my head I put on the permanent professional face and headed towards him. "Many apologies I took too long. Shall we start?" seeing the sudden change he baffled for moment that gave me a bit relief. "So starting from introduction. Myself......." I started the presentation to find his full focus on me, not giving a single glance away. Still controlling all emotions I continued non stop.
Almost after an hour later the presentation was at it's end. "...and with that these are the briefs about Natural Productions. You can ask any query about it if you have." Ahhh! Finally it ended. My mind calmed down just after the presentation ended. "Yes I have few questions about it. What are you doing tonight?" his face being indifferent while asking. "Pardon me, please?" me tryna signify his intentions. "I mean, it was really nice meeting you Miss Riya Dani. I wanna know, what you doing tonight? Means, are you free or working late or some other stuff. That's it." he paced towards me while explaining his question. Me keeping a close eye on his every move. And in split of seconds he was standing toe to toe with me glaring at each other. Mostly, my glare was full of annoyance but his was like, searching for my soul which was guarded by my own demons and I guess he found it deep inside me cause just after few seconds he soften his gaze and stood back couple of steps. "Um, you did a great job. I appreciate it. I'm glad I have employees like you so I hope it would be nice working together." he bid adieu with the genuine smile on his face. In a split of seconds he transfromed from a badass devil to a sweetheart angel.
Will's POV
Can't believe that was real! She looked so cool and professional and played her role perfectly. It was so flabbergasting to see her in real professional mode. Hmmp, she has skills. And is there any compliments for her beauty. Oh my gosh! It became so difficult for my little member not to get excited in pants as more she glanced at me. Her eyes, so soulful, can anyone be this beautiful being this broken. Just as that thought swifted my mind a wave of condolence swirled on my face. Still, without letting it stain on my face I concentrated more on her moves. She portrayed a perfect diva, who would handle any situation like it's her daily job. Soon without me knowing the presentation ended. So soon! My mind was stuck on her so bad that I never knew it was being this late. But after what I did wasn't me at all. As I peeped in her eyes I found was nothing but darkness and a wounded soul caged in a prison crying for help and guarded by demon like creature who's looked like herself. Was it me hallucinating or was that for real vision like thing. Whatever it was, that scared the crap out of me.
"Cool down buddy!" I mumbled myself. My heart rate was like at 150 beats per minute, throbbing viciously inside my rib cage. I looked up in the mirror and tried to see deep inside my eyes and it wasn't a surprise to find only her face smiling towards me. Of course I love her. I loved her more than anything in this world. But the devasting scene I saw in her eyes was something related to her reality. She was under influence of her demons and they were non other than the fear and anxiety she faces everyday. I can understand how she must be carrying out her daily life with all this. While being in her thoughts a small pearl like droplet rolled across my face. I never knew I can love someone so passionately that I can cry for her. She made me realize my own true self, true Will Blues that I was use to be in my younger times. She really had this impact on me and on the other hand she was loosing herself. "It's high time already, Will." putting on the rage I screamed to myself. It's already high time to make decision about her, about us! And I think I'm gonna make the righteous decision that's needed.
