Faith POV

Do you want to know the definition of happiness? 

Happiness is waking up early, taking a hot bubbly bath, putting on your work clothes, and getting ready for your first day at work. 

I received an email two days later after my interview that I- Faith McChrystal, was a new executive assistant to two hot bosses in the world of C&S Clothing. So tell me if that isn't the perfect definition of happiness in all its forms.

I walked through the large glass doors, towards an executive elevator. I was given strict rules. Very strict rules. But guess what? I was perfectly fine with them.

People threw me questioning looks when I waited for the elevator door to open. I just stared blankly ahead. Was I nervous? Nope! Not me! The excitement was very much larger than the antsiness.

"Excuse me, ma'am? This is the private elevator. You can use the other one!" A Buffy guy in a black uniform said with a little smile as he walked to where I stood. At least he wasn't being a dick.

"Oh. Yes, sir I perfectly know that. I am, Faith, the new executive assistant and today is my first day around. I was given strict rules that I need to follow and among them was, to use the executive elevator!" I replied with a professional smile, extending my hand out for a small shake.

He looked at me questionably before holding a finger at me and reaching for his phone. I put my hand down.

"Yes, Sir. There's a lady at the executive elevator claiming to be the new executive assistant. I was...Oh? Okay sir I apologize for the inconvenience. Right away Sir!" I listened to a one-sided conversation and he gave me an apologetic smile, placing his giant phone back into the breast pocket.

He ushered me to the elevator that just dinged open.

"I really apologize for that ma'am. But it had to be done. Security purposes.it is not every day we see a Lady taking up the private lift.!" he said nervously.

"I totally understand, and do not beat yourself for it. Will see you around!" the door sling closed and it began moving up.

The last time I was here, I rode to the 67th floor, and now I was riding up to the 70th floor which was strictly forbidden to employees. Especially women employees. I found it a little disturbing to be the only girl on that floor but hey! It is what it is!

After a few minutes, the elevator door dinged open revealing a very much darker hue of walls.

I got out and took in my surrounding. 

Just right out of the elevator on my right was an enormous lounge room/office or whatever they used it for. The four huge couches rounded the rich black glass trolley coffee table that was shockingly beautiful to be real. The color of the couches was a light shade of gray and reflected on the dark shade of the walls. On the very far end of the lounge was a floor-to-ceiling window with drapes on either side. The lounge was breathtaking. The walls were painted in a very deep shade of gray. Very deep. The carpet on the passage and the lounge was a deep shade of black. I walked to what I assumed to be the reception desk which was a rich mahogany desk with a black marble countertop. The decor on the wall behind the desk was pitch black paint with a very much shiny C&S gray logo.

Black and gray it is! 

I glanced further down the hallway at the two office doors which both had the owner's initials curved neatly on the sidewalls near the door.

The one on the far right side of the wall belonged to Mr. Angry Bird, and the one near the reception on the very same wall belonged to Mr. Scott. 

There was a door opposite Mr Scott's which I assumed was my new office to be. 

My office! Aha! 

Who would've thought?

I walked back towards the lounge room and sat down. I was annoyingly early. But hey, it's better to be early on your first day at work than to be late. I glanced at my watch which signalled that I still had 10 minutes to myself. Luckily, I'd printed some of the small work Mr. Scott sent me while he informed me about everything. So I took out some files and began re-reading again. They were at their lowest and I was sure as fuck that clients were leaving them and that investors were turning their backs on C&S.

I buried my head into the files and began circling the important points to pay attention to and the less critical ones. My concentration was intruded on by a ding of the elevator and out came Louis who was wearing some nice black slacks and a button-up shirt. His eyes landed on me and his face lit up.

"Oh look who's here! Are you ready for your first date at work?" he asked with a very huge grin.

"Oh, I couldn't be more ready sir!" I replied returning his smile.

"Oh please. Save the sirs for the bosses. As for me, I'm your Louis. And yes I can really tell that you are ready for your day. The bosses will be here in..." he raised his hand and looked at his watch. "...in five minutes." He said with a smile.

"No problem at all. I'll get back to what I was doing and you do your thing. The bosses will come and tell me what to do when they get here!" I said dismissing him. He nodded and walked to the reception- cancel that- secretary's desk and placed his briefcase. I buried my face into my work and in just a matter of few minutes, the elevator door dinged open signaling the arrival of 'Thee Bosses'. 

I quickly got up on my feet as they both walked out of the elevator and holy cow! They were out of this world. Mr. Angry Bird stood proud and tall in a very neat burgundy hued 2 pieced suit. The white button-up dress shirt and a black tie marveled at his look. His hair was combed neatly on his head and oh his sexy furrowed brows! His 5 o'clock shadow stubble made my hands itch to stroke his scruffy face. He looked like a Greek god on Earth. 

Mr. Scott was wearing a very light blue 3-pieced suit which highlighted his perfectly sculpted face. His hair was jelled on each side of his head and made a very sexy messy tangle on top of his head. His beard was shaven and that made me think of the unthinkable. Was Mr. Angry Bird the one who gets on top? Or...

Mr. Angry Bird only gave me a nod and walked past the lounge much of a hello. Stupid fucking hot Angry Bird! 

"Ms McChrystal. You can imagine my surprise when I received a call that you are already here when I was just in the shower!" Mr Scott said drawing near me with a dimpled cute as fuck smile. He held my outstretched hand and shook it firmly. But why did he have to mention him being in the shower?

"It's best to be early than being late on the first day at work. Isn't it Mr Scott? I asked in a very professional tone. 

"Oh yes, it is. Welcome on board Miss and we are very happy to have you!" He said ushering me to take a seat which I did.

"Thank you so much sir and as you can see, I was already familiarizing myself with some of the work you've given me during the week. I bet it's safe to say your previous PA effed you up and apologies for using the word!" I replied. He let out a belly laugh. Like a throw your head back and laugh kind of laughter and daaaamn! His laughter was rich and oh so help me, Lord!

"You'd say that again Ms McChrystal. So before we get to the main juncture of your work, I'd like to inform you about the basic ground rules. One thing you need to bear in mind is to stand at least 3 feet from Mr. Calu. He's... gynophobic. So he really doesn't do well around..." his voice trailed off and he looked very uncomfortable.

"Women! He doesn't do well around women!" I finished his sentence with an understanding nod and gestured for him to continue.

"Yes with women. So please don't take it to heart and personally when he doesn't talk to you or have much to say, greet you. If you need to forward a message to him, give the message to me but in case of my absence, Louis is there at your call. Additionally, be sure to not wear very much scented perfume and you should not worry about the 3 feet rule because I'll always be between the two of you where it's necessary. Put his coffee on his desk in the morning and don't leave any trail of feminine things anywhere around this floor except for your office. Your office is your own den and you can put flowers and lipsticks in there, we won't kill you for it. And last but not least, please don't mind his scowls. I too am used to them!" I laughed at the last part of his sentence and just brushed him off. 

It all seemed pretty fine to me!

  • Double Bossed   EPILOGUE

    8 MONTHS LATER FAITH “Little Mama, I just…” Jay got into the living room hurriedly only to stop when he realized sleeping Baby Des in my arms. It had been quite a year since the Brianne and Lloyd’s fiasco. The video where I hit the living soul out of her went viral and I was actually surprised by the positivity it got. That also put C&S on spotlight and man; it was at its booming phase, stocks kept on rising every second! As for me, I was a fully-fledged mother of two beautiful babies in the world and I was thankful to have my two precious husbands by my side! Yes! Hardin Calu, Jared Scott-Calu and I were married. A month after the babies were born, the guys insisted on holding a small but cozy wedding ceremony where we exchanged our vows. It had been the Scotts and a few of our closest friends and it was really a beautiful wedding. As of now, I was Mrs. Faith Scott-Calu and I cherished every minute of it. One of the things I was gratified for was

  • Double Bossed   Chapter 59

    JARED“You guys are supposed to be here in 20 minutes. If not, I swear I am going to cut your balls and Faith will kill me because I maimed her favorite part of you!” Trinity fired in the phone; I had to remove the phone from my ear because she was just so loud!“Alright alright. We will be there. But Faith is so slow. So we can’t move fast because of her!” I defended trying to shift the blame to Faith. At least she was in Trinity’s good books, unlike us who were rubbed off as soon as Faith popped up in the picture. Since the day we took her to my home, my folks were over obsessed with her. Hardin and I mattered no more. Their whole life revolved around Faith and her only. If she fell ill, like catch some cold or stomach flu, my parents would be at my front door in a split second; then go ahead and blame us for not taking care of their “little girl”! Apparently, Faith got ill because we didn’t give her time to rest;

  • Double Bossed   Chapter 58

    HARDIN When we arrived home from Costa Rica, things were a bit hectic at the office since we left everything unattended. But I didn’t regret any of the moments we had in Costa Rica because it was fun. It was so serene, so calming, especially after the crazy events that had went down. By the time we had to go back to work, I felt energized, light and rejuvenated enough to get back to work. Jay and I had tried to cut down Faith’s working hours but that little thing was as stubborn as a mule. She went on by not talking to us for full two days only because we insisted on her cutting her working hours. So in the end (which was very normal recently), we gave in and let her have her way with us. That's just how things were lately. Aside from silence-treatment, she would cry! Whenever things didn’t work out the way she wanted, my baby cried so hard that it always broke my heart to see her like that. At other times however, she cried for very little things. Very littl

  • Double Bossed   Chapter 57

    TWO MONTHS LATERFAITHA lot has happened in the past few weeks. Prior to Lloyd’s fiasco, Killian Scott had assured me not to worry and left everything with him. Not only was he arrested for trespassing, sexual assault and insider trading, he lost everything. His parents had to handover their hard yearned mansions because everything they did behind the scenes was put at light. As of right now, he was harmoniously serving his 10 years imprisonment and I couldn’t be happier.As for Brianne Fuckin’ Calu and her mate; they were arrested for human trafficking, child-pornography and smuggling of weapons. Like her friend Lloyd, she was now in an orange suit behind the bars. Unfortunately for her, she had committed so many sins that she was sentenced for 45 years imprisonment without bail. Imagine my joy when the judge announced this. I guess that's one of the things that made me fat because girl; not even an elephant held a candle to me!

  • Double Bossed   Chapter 56

    JAREDWhen all was said and done, I drove my beautiful family of three to the doctor’s appointment. No words on this earth or above were befitting or intense enough to describe how I felt inside. Fulfilled, complete, genuinely happy; heck! Even Shakespeare had no words to describe how I felt. I was alive, more than I have ever been in years!And the thought that we were going to scan, our very first ultrasound scan with our little baby mama, good heavens; life has never done me this good!Of all the things that came with Lloyd’s catastrophe, Faith’s pregnancy was the best ever! I had never expected neither have I ever dreamed that at our lowest point of life, this beautiful angel would give us a reason to fight and live. Now we didn’t just live for C&S and power, we had our family to live for. We had our girl to live for. We had a baby to live for! Maybe two. Goodness imagine if it were twins! Two beautiful babies that look like their

  • Double Bossed   Chapter 55

    HARDINIt was over! Finally!And it was all thanks to the one and only Faith McChrystal! A very smart, brilliant, crazy yet driven woman I have ever seen in this entire universe! For the past two days after she posted the statement of the press conference, Jay and I had our moments where we went through things, trying to come up with all good explanations for what has gone down! We made a plan of giving a small but brief talk and then end the press conference; then go back and work our asses to save the company yet again!There was no where we envisioned Faith doing everything by herself! And like a true angel she is, she saved us all with just a couple of words! I admired her bravery; I admired her strength and will! When we arrived at the company, she was so confident in herself; but I didn’t read too much into it because she was just being herself; her usual lively bright self! So when Louis locked us in her office, I was really gobsmacked.I wan
