They didn't say anything they just cuddled and made sure I knew I was loved
"V listen to me" she said as she held my face in her hands
"You did what you had to do alright. Going to their grave to pay tribute might draw unnecessary attention to you revealing who you really are and that won't be good at all"
"Yeah Nova, Isla is right. We have to keep a low head until we know it's safe" Ace added and they hugged me again while smothering me with kisses
"I'm sure I'm infected with several germs but thanks guys" I said with a smile and went up to my room. Shutting the door behind me I laid on my bed and cried my eyes out as all the memories came flooding back making it hard for me to breathe. Slowly, it turned to anger that my parent's killer hasn't been brought to justice and they're still out there probably terrorizing another family
"I'll keep my promise mom and dad and avenge your death" I said, holding onto my necklace; the last thing I ever got from my parents. I must have slept off crying 'cause when I woke up, it was morning and I was having a massive headache
"Great way to start you're first day at work" I mumbled to myself as I groaned out of bed. I looked next to my bed to see a glass of what and some painkillers. I smiled as I took them knowing I had the best roommates ever. I walked into the bathroom and looked at myself in the mirror. I had a swollen face and red eyes, at that point I wanted to bash my head into the wall for allowing it to happen
"Fuck Nova, you really let yourself go" I said while gently touching my face "but it's cool, nothing an ice face bath won't fix" I said and heard my alarm for 6:30am go off. I quickly rushed to shower and get ready for work deciding against the ice face bath and settling for dark sunglasses.
I rummage through my wardrobe and finally settled for a high waist skirt with silt and a burgundy silk shirt and rushed downstairs with hopes I still had time to spare
"Hi V breakfast's ready" Isla said while flipping a pancake
"Thanks Isla but no time, gotta go I'm running late" I said grabbing my bag and a bottle of water
"Love you" I said and dashed out the door before they could say anything. Would you blame me? I woke up late and had no time for and ice facials to properly wake me up. I really hope these glasses help
Let me just say this running in stilettos isn't as easy as actresses make it to be. I almost sprained my ankle twice just by running across the road. When I got into the building, Madison welcomed me with a cup of hot chocolate
"Oh, I love you thank you" I exclaimed as we made our way to the elevator
"Sure, no problem. Uhm Nova why the glasses" she asked and I took them off
"Shit what happened?"
"Just a lil crying session gone wrong but I'm fine. I'll just keep the glasses on for the mean time" I assured her. Looking at her I could see the look of worry on her face but I smiled and hugged her before rushing into the elevator
"I'll see you lunch time" I quickly added before the elevator doors closed. I sighed deeply as I took my hot coco and surprisingly, it was to my taste; with a lot of marshmallows. The ride up to the 46th floor felt like ages but I finally arrived and groaned at the thought of walking in on those two fucking again
"Oh well here goes nothing" I mumbled to myself as I walked out of the elevator and down the hall. I wondered if he'll notice my glasses but then I remembered the scene from yesterday and shook my head. I had just got to my office when the desk phone rang
"Hello" I said with uncertainty not sure who I was talking to
"You really came and on time too" a voice said and I knew undoubtedly it was Matthais. The voice sounded as though it was excited to hear mine. I rolled my eyes at the gesture even though it caused me pain
"Yes sir. Is there anything you want?" I said trying not to sound sarcastic
"I need you in my office" he replied coldly and ended the call. I was there with a receiver in hand trying to understand what had just occurred. Deep breaths Nova. I know he's an asshole but he's also your boss; your hot sexy boss that has to pin you against the wall and fuck you soon or your gonna have a problem soon. What the hell Nova? Think of something else other than that. Like the time Isla and Ace were trying to prove they were good at cooking and Ace ended up setting fire to the soup kitchen where we stayed.
I wonder how his tongue and hands would feel on my body or how it'll feel taking in his…
"Oh my God! It's like my mind has a mind of its own" I said shuddering at the disgusting thoughts I was thinking and of all people, it had to be Matthais. I rolled my eyes again, adjusted my glasses before knocking
"Come in" Matthais said and I briskly walked in. I walked calmly to his desk but when his eyes met mine, I felt like my knees would give way any second. His eyes were captivating and when he leaned back on his chair all I was thinking about was seeing him shirtless and tracing my tongue on him. Snap the hell out of it Nova
"Are you ok sir? Should I call a…." I said noticing the change in his countenance. He looked sweaty; his breath was shallow; he looked like he was gonna pass out any minute orrrr gonna cum any minute now
My eyes widened at the realization and he must have seen it 'cause he had that stupid smirk plastered on his face that I wanted to slap off
"Jesus!' I exclaimed turning around before my eyes fell out of my sockets due to disgust
"You know you two need to get a room or something so your innocent staff don't have to walk in on scenes like this
"I prefer my office. It helps me think"
"Good for you. Then maybe, oh I don't know you can give me a heads up so I don't walk into scenes like this and ruin my day"
"If you want to be down there all you have to do is ask" he said
"Hell would have to freeze over before I even think of having anything to do with you" I replied as his table moved. No doubt Camilla was the one under there
"Good 'cause I don't share what's mine" Camilla said sucking on her fingers which made me gag but atleastthey were done I could finally get my assignment and get out of the office
She sat on him and started kissing.
