BRITTANY
"Miss Raies "
I walk into my office confidently in my strapless pencil dress, feather jacket and three inch heels, taking every step graciously with the young accountant trailing behind me.
Hmm, miss.
That would be over soon. I think twirling the massive gold and diamond on my ring finger.
Taking my seat at the back of the huge desk, i put my elbows down on the polished wood, intertwining my manicured fingers together under my chin.
"So tell me Mr Jerome, how is the mobile distribution going?"
It's been four months now since i started working in this company ,and in that short spam of time, I've managed to climb my self up to the position of assistant CEO of the biggest electronics companies in Granville and one of the biggest in the whole of us.
One of the perks of dating the founder, owner and CEO of same organization.
A year ago, i never would have thought, I'll be anywhere close to a building like this one, not to mention sitting in the big seat and managing the affairs of everything going on inside out, especially since Andrew isn't always here so that gives me more advantage to everything.
"Wonderfully "he replies taking a seat for himself in front of me. "we have about eighty million sales each in about forty countries as for the first distribution batch "
"Good, good "i nod my head in approval "and our risen income? How much would you rate the improvement from the last sales "
"Seventy five percent miss "
I nod again and hum, this is good improvement, and if my plan goes accordingly, everything would be perfect.
"So once the process is done and finished... "i give him a knowing look "...you know what to do "
The expression on his face changes and he looks grim. "do i have to really? "
"Yes "i glare at him praying his not going to try or say anything stupid.
"You know if we... "
"I'm getting married to Andrew very soon and once it's done, there wouldn't be any need to be having all this dubious thoughts anymore because i will take care of everything.
He stares at me a little for a while, not seeming contented with my agreement with him first. Then he nods his head and says "if you say so miss Raies "
"Good " i smile. One of the brilliant features of myself ,i can be really convincing you'll get confused. "now Mr Jerome, this is just between the two of us and if one word of this gets out... "
"What if it does? " he challenges adjusting his glasses.
I huff "who do you think they will believe? My word against yours. "i smirked "and then you'll loose your job, I'll hire someone else willing to do it for me, perhaps even a female "
He swallows and nods in understanding "you know, for an undergraduate you know how to play your game "
A silly smirk plays even wider on my lips as i watch him walk away.
Well, that was easy.
Violet.The corners of my full lips bloom out a vibrant smile of satisfaction as I stare at my petite frame on the long mirror in front of me. Picking every little detail I admire how beautifully the silk violet dress clings to my body from the low cleavage that gave a rather tempting view of my now full and perky breasts to the tight clog at my small waist and down the expanded length of my slender but vividly dangerous curves, and then along the long slit from the top of my thighs and down to my feet adorned with a beautiful silver strap heel.A smirk forms on my lips.I feel sexy.Utterly and undeniably damn snatching!I have to say, Mother Nature truly did a fine job on me over the years. I've become thicker in the busts and thighs but unfortunately my behind has sworn to it's creator that it would never, under any circumstance increase by a swell. I cringe as I turn around examining the size of my bottom in the mirror.Fundging stubborn ingrate!With a little sigh I take a sit at
"Dance with me." Kyle says to me.It's not a question, it's a polite order. I have no objections, I can't even if I wanted to. He has me entirely transfixed and compelled with his touch and the depths of his stare. Just as he circles both his hands around my waist and invades my personal space till we're both sharing the same oxygen, I wrap my tiny arms around his neck and dig my nails into his over grown hair. "Did I forget to tell you that you look delicious?" I say to which he lifts a brow up at me while chewing on his lower lip. "Like I could eat you."The sound of his chuckles causes a minimal grumble in my belly....or maybe it's just in my head. But then he drops his voice in that deep masculine melody of an English accent "can't deny I'd love that."My cheeks hit up at his words, knowing the meaning doesn't represent one of innocence at all. I bury my head on his chest and just let him cocoon me in his embrace while I listen to the the steady rhythm of his heartbeat and we danc
I'd have run us over if Kyle didn't switch gears. How in heaven's name did he expect me! Someone who has never been behind a wheel ever to drive us both safely? We had to pull over somewhere by the roadside and switch. I let him take control of the wheel and I sat there acting all grumpy and shit. Murmuring to him words somewhere along the lines of leaving me to drive and leading us both to our graves. He'd only laughed it off saying something about my friendship with Alice robbing off on me, although he looked terrified. My guy had to stand outside the lonely streets for a good thirty seconds catching his breath and holding his throat in pretense of false suffocation, making those weird constipated faces he's fund of. And he says I'm the dramatic one. Now it's past nine at night, and I'm standing right here in front of my school.... or bet
"Lexa!" The moment I step past the front door, I haven't even found my way completely inside the house when Caroline ambushes me and pulls me into a bone crushing hug. "Oh, here goes..." I awkwardly wrap my hands around her back trying not to give out the fact that she's literally restricting me of oxygen. She pulls away slightly then pinches both my cheeks with both of her index and tomb fingers. "How are you feeling tiger?" "Alive." I say baldly and she doesn't seem satisfied with my response. "I have some aspirin in the top shelf if you're in any pain, and I can ask the girls to draw you a hot tub, I'm sure you must be exhu..."
"Surprise?" I say with a small smile on my face as I make my way towards Kyle who stands by the passenger door of his red Porsche, looking all glamorous and clean in a white turtleneck long sleeve and green army pants matched with his huge pair of Dior leather foot destroyers as I like to call them. He pulls himself up and a little smile brushes across his pink plum lips as I close in on him. His eyes are being shaded by the big ray-bans he has on and although he has on a clean haircut, gone is the disturbing piece of white fabric that were guarded around his head about two weeks ago, he didn't trim the front which gives the blowing wind an advantage to dance with his hair. "So," I say stopping directly in front of him. "What's the surprise?" "Me?" He asks, cocking his head to the left a little in the goofy way in whic
Taking the first step by the entrance, my eyes immediately shoot up to the welcoming calligraphy full of glittery colors that reads 'Katie's sweets' by the top of the building and I let out a satisfied sigh, along with a brief smile that takes over my facial features. Redirecting my attention to the entrance, I walk up the narrow stairs and feel my brows crease when I notice that, unlike the last time I was here, the seal on the entrance door has been removed and the lock is hanging loosely by the hook. That makes my frown grow deeper and next thing I'm walking faster to see what's happening on the inside. The place is dark I would probably trip and fall if it isn't for the provision of midday light illuminating rather dimly into the open space by the extended half-glass walls on the other end of the bakery. My nose scrunches up a bit when I in
