Strike One
Samil kept gazing at me, his sight was firm, constant, and… unbearable. I couldn't tell what was hidden behind that gaze, but the insensitivity of it made my heart pound and hands shake. I almost dropped my notebook because of it.
“Why does this elevator go so slow?! I will die in here if the door don't open in like three seconds!” I went frantic inside my mind.
When the door opened I almost collapsed getting off that elevator. I started breathing heavily while holding a hand on my chest, making it impossible for him not to notice my state. He smirked and walked slowly through the corridor leading to conference room, and I… seriously wanted to kill him for messing me up so much.
We entered the room together, everyone bowed to him, greeting him, and ignoring me. It felt incredibly awkward, until suddenly…
“Kass! Great to see you… Ms. Secretary!” Grace called happily from the back of the room waving her hand.
She surprised me, with all that had

Samil glanced at me and smiled, almost like he was giving me courage to speak. Unfortunately, his way of acting “nice” towards me only made me more flustered. I smiled awkwardly at him, then closed my eyes, and took a deep breath. I was in the spotlight, and my scene was about to begin… “Ms. Murphy… I assume that you worked as a leader of this proposal, is that correct?” I asked starting to state my opinion. “Yes. We worked in a group of four people, I was in charge of polishing the whole project,” she claimed, quite reluctantly. I somehow felt relieved when she admitted it. Looking at Grace's earlier reaction, I was almost positive that she was also in this group, if I were going to criticize this proposal I would rather put the blame on someone else than her… Besides, I knew Grace well enough to know her creativity, and those things that were in the presentation, were far below her level. “This proposal is lacking attractiveness. There are multiple
A Kissing Spell Strike three...?
Another day at work ended. I sat on the bus home feeling slightly upset that I didn't accomplish what I wanted. Samil was still in the dark, unknowing that I met his family, nor that I knew about his curse. I had to do something about it fast, yet I feared that with this knowledge, his attitude towards me would change. “What if I lose his trust, after I tell him…?” I wondered nervously. He told me once he was hiring me that he made his choice because I had no connections to his uncle and step-brother… Now, I met them both. Even though I wasn't planning on contacting neither of them, how could I tell him that in the way he would believe me…? He certainly wasn't the person who gave his trust easily. Perhaps, I was being paranoid, but could anyone blame me for feeling this way in my peculiar situation? I came back to an empty house. Grandma went to some unknown place to find a solution that would allow me to live beyond my 30th birthday. I wished she didn't have
A Kissing Spell My limits
Samil led me to his office, told me to sit on the sofa, and walked out saying that he needed to handle the rest. He left the door open so that he could keep an eye on me. I assumed that I might have looked slightly pale… close to a freshly awaken zombie. I was absolutely unable to go through everything that occurred in the last few minutes. I stared at the open door watching Samil making calls and glancing at me every three seconds. I could see anger and guilt painted all over his face. Seconds later I saw a group of men in black clothes and caps march in front of Samil. They stood in one row like an army. They resembled some special operations squad, like the ones you can see in the spy movies. There was one person among them who wore a black suit, it seemed like he was their leader. “Apologize for the delay, Sir,” he bowed to Samil. “This is unacceptable…” Samil hissed, “Where were the security assigned to the top floor?!” he fumed. “Apparently, Mr.
A Kissing Spell Practicing magic
In the evening of that day, when I began acknowledging how much magic I had inside me Samil sent a message saying he was giving me the rest of the week off. I was surprised by the level of his indulgence, I was ready to go to work the next day… but that way I could use this time to learn more about the power within me. I started studying another chapter of the “The book of spells”. I soon found out that it truly was a kind of “introduction to magic”. There were many basic techniques and methods for concentration and meditation in it. I started following simple exercises and soon realized that I was actually good at it. Everything that was written there came to me naturally. On the second day of my studying I was able to blow off candles standing five meters away from them, merely using a hand gesture. I could also form spilled on the table water into flat symbols and signs without touching it. Unfortunately, putting water back to the glass didn't work that well… I no
A Kissing Spell Danger up ahead
My days off work passed quickly, I spend them all on practicing magic and making sure that I would use my power intentionally. There were a lot of aspects that I couldn't explore yet, but I was able to understand clearer how the witch's will becomes a spell. I thought that it would at least prevent me from casting spells all over the place…While riding the bus to work on Monday morning I started feeling anxious. I wondered how would Samil's attitude towards me be like. Would he show a similar amount of warmth and kindness, or would he casually go back to his cold and indifferent behavior? I hoped that this occurrence would change something between us, but my cruel rationality kept telling me that he had shown his concern strictly because of work.It was the time to face the truth, I had zero chances to grasp his interest in me as a woman using my sexuality, or appearance. I had never seduce anyone, even my one and only relationship started by a stupid str
A Kissing Spell First confession
Samil finally left his office, I followed him to the roof to escort him to the helicopter. On the way up there he gave me several suspicious gazes, but somehow they weren't as cold and spiteful as those from when I entered his office in the morning. Perhaps, he finally decided to give me benefit of the doubt and trust that whatever secrets I held they weren't necessarily dangerous ones… Well, my secret abilities certainly weren't stating any threat to him. “I will see you in three days, Ms. Eder,” he smirked just before the helicopter landed, “When I am gone, remember that you are my employee, you take orders from me alone,” he stated firmly gazing deep into my eyes. His words made me flustered a bit. He sounded possessive and domineering. I couldn't keep up with his mood swings, especially considering that I felt that he was about to fire me just an hour ago. He finally got on board of the chopper and flew away, and I was able to get back behind my desk to d
A Kissing Spell Friend's help
Grace stared at me with her eyes completely still. Almost like her mind went blank or started rebooting on the words I just said. “G-grace?” I called hesitantly. She blinked her eyes and kept staring at me motionless for few more seconds, then burst out laughing. “That is kind of rhetorical speech, right?” she chuckled, doubting my words. “No,” I stated, calmly. “W-what… what does it mean that you are a witch? Like a “Witches of Salem” witch kind of thing?” she asked nervously. “You could say that… Except for that I really can do magic…” I smiled faintly gazing at Grace. “Wow…” she muttered, “That is… um… I don't know how to react…” “You… don't really believe me, do you?” I sighed. “Well… It is hard to believe in something like that…” she laughed hysterically. “What if I could prove it?” I suggested. “Well…” she paused probably wondering what it would be. “Don't worry too much,” I chuckle
A Kissing Spell A replacement
On Wednesday morning I decided to wear my new bought clothes to work. I also did my make up with the instructions the beautician gave me. I did it as a test, a grand rehearsal before Samil's comeback. As soon as I finished putting last touches of loose powder I ran out of the bathroom to stare at my whole silhouette in the bigger mirror. I was still unfamiliar with this reflection of mine, but I loved it, I felt confident, and… sexy. I went to work with satisfying grin on my face. When I decided to wear a secretary-like office clothes before, I thought that the men around started noticing me a bit, I thought of it as of a huge improvement. Now… men were oddly staring at me, some of them were smiling at me. Getting that much attention as a woman was completely new, but I couldn't say that I disliked it, although some of the stares were quite creepy… As I entered the company I saw few men who turned around to look after me as I passed. They gazed at me like I was some
