She sat behind a computer sorting out appointments for her boss. For hours she waited for him to call her in, probably to yell out his guts for invading his privacy but he seemed to have forgotten about her existence.
Just as she thought he would never show his alluring self, he opened the door of his magnificent office and called her name " Tessa walk in "
She readied herself for the scolding of her life but rather she met with a mischievous grin on his face. It almost seemed as if he was mocking her and she found her mind confused.
" When I saw you something clicked in my memory. A little look into your file and I saw something striking. Tessa Ivory, you attended Duke's college in the year 2007 in class B."
"That wasn't in my resume sir"
"sure it wasn't but your forgetting something Tes. Don't I look familiar - nerdy mama Tes "
The reality instantly dawned on her. Her boss was none other than Lucian Greystoke, the monster that had dedicated his life into making hers a living nightmare. She barely made it through college without having to be teased at the slightest turn in class. If he wasn't doing it, his smurvy girlfriend would do her best to take it out on her. How on earth did this slime that barely aced his grades make it to the top of the modeling agency. He never showed interest in anything like this and now all of a sudden he is on the top and moreover, her boss. If any chance in hell she had always dreamed of a reality where she would be basking in glory of all her efforts while he wallowed in misery over his inability to attain the heights of power. She knew that he had his family's wealth to support him but even with that, he would not survive because of his other brothers who would grasp the money fully for themselves so how on earth did he do this? The question replayed over and over in her head.
He ate up the mortified look on her face, smirking greedily at her. His eyes scanned her body and an idea flashed into his mind. Over the years, she had grown into a fine specimen for a woman. Her hips had nice curves and she was bustier than before. Time really had molded her into a wonderful piece of art.
"A woman would come by later today. You are to make sure to let her in and allow no one to barge in on our privacy " he spoke with the strict voice she had familiarized herself with from earlier on. She regained her senses, deciding to make the best out of the situation despite the odds.
"yes sir. Is there any specifics in her to prevent the entrance of a stranger? " she inquired calmly though her nerves were still fidgeting from the shock.
" weird that I can't even recall her name. was it Molly or was it Lisa? could it be eve or praise? I need to make a proper tab on these bitches. I don't know her name but she has a huge ass and a very seductive personality. You would know her when you see her. While your at it, do make a list of all the ladies on my phone. Their full names, background and a thorough check on personality and email it me. I can't keep on forgetting my women now can I " he smirked watching her mental stature crumble in disgust of his personality. He knew she was probably calling him a bloody womanizer and truth be told he had no problem with that since it was the reality.
He had intentionally dropped the used condoms in the trash basket when he heard that she was going to be his new secretary. He would recreate his college days making her adult life as miserable as her college one. He knew clearly that she dislikes men with ferocious appetite for women, liquor and men who lacked the zeal to achieve anything. And he fell into all those categories. H could easily whim any woman on the street into his bed for the night and discard of her the next day for a prettier bitch. Partying was his lifestyle and he would make sure she was at every of his parties and more importantly, he never cared about hardworking or dedication. He always got what he wanted with the snap of a finger and the fact that he was her boss would eat through her guts until she puked nonstop.
This was the perfect pastime for him. Life at the office became slightly less boring.
Tessa sat on the chair, her mind still running wildly on the thoughts of Lucian. Why did that monster had to resurface in her life at a time when she needed the least distractions.
" God help me get through with this in one piece "
She worked through the remaining hours of the day, more than grateful that Lucian spared her his troubles. Josh served her hamburgers and fries for lunch. He stayed a while for a chat and promised to wait for her after work.
She resumed reading through the next contract that he needed to approve before it would be sent to Darba group of sons. Of all people!!!!
Mark's father owned that company and they were hosting a party to celebrate their 60 years of prosperity. The company needed to wear the latest styles to tally with the image of a vibrant classy environment they were building and who better to provide them with the best outfits than Royalty. She wanted to avoid Mark's family but it seemed that her fate was against her. As the head secretary of Royalty, she would meet the executives of Darba before they would make final arrangements with the board. If she didn't grace their request, they would never be allowed a chance to speak to the board. She could decide to terminate their request in order to prevent herself from being entangled with Mark's family but on what grounds. She was very sure that as soon as Mr Darba saw her he would pull strings with her father and would make sure he got the contract with Royalty.
Why does that ass have to be so lazy? This company in itself is lazy. They pour the power on the head secretary while they wine and dine in their villas. Reports would be made at the end of the day and all they would have to do was dish out orders but what can I say, the pay is worth it.
" I'll have to set aside my personal life and take up this request. This company needs more publicity. The headlines : Royalty lends a hand to Darba group of companies at Georgia 60th anniversary with fashionable wears. The company would look charitable and a head line like that would throw dirt in Darba's face. My company gets the money worth and I get my victory " she smiled as she hatched a plan to thwart her relationship with Mark and his manipulative family.
