Vera Anderson's POV"Did I hear it right, Vera? Do you love me too?", Royce asked me after we shared a long deep kiss. We stared at each other again, no words spoken but our hearts understood what we were trying to say. He gently pulled my hand and kissed it passionately. The overwhelming emotion enveloped my heart especially when I heard him saying he loves me. It was just like a sweet symphony to my ears that I wanted to hear over and over again. How I wished this moment would never end so we could stay like this without thinking other people except the two of us."Vera? Will you please say it again?", Royce asked, still holding my hand."Say what?", I responded, pretending I did not get it."Please say you love me too. I want to hear it again", he pleaded while his eyes still glued at me.I smiled and was about to say it when the waiter arrived bringing the food we ordered earlier. Royce shook his head as if to say he got the wrong timing. We both chuckled as I shrugged my shoulder
Vera Anderson's POVThe loud buzzing sound of my alarm clock wakes me up early in the morning. It's a good thing that I set an alarm otherwise, I could not be able to wake up at this hour. I'm still feeling a little groggy and something down here hurts a bit but I'm thinking about my work at META so I need to come as early as seven. I stood up and grabbed my towel to take a bath. As soon as I feel the cold water dripping into my skin, my senses were awakened and Royce's naked image ran through my mind. I couldn't help but admire his good physique which made him even hotter. I smiled when I remembered the happy moments we shared together last night. Royce was really good in bed no wonder, plenty of women swooned over him. I took a deep breath when I realized we don't have labels because this is what I wanted to. I believe when he said he loves me, but how long would it last? Being loved by a womanizer like him seemed to be a wishful thinking on my part but whether it was or not, only t
Royce Miller's POVAfter I dropped Vera off at their house, I went home right away because I need to take a rest for my work tomorrow. I would have wanted to be with her for a long time but I was also thinking about my work at the office. I sighed because I already missed her so badly. Is this how you feel when you fall in love? I smiled as I remembered the intimate moments we shared together. It was like heavens to me, knowing I'm the first man she has given herself to.On the other hand, I also feel a little sad because she doesn't want commitments. I understand her because I was known to be a womanizer and maybe she is just afraid that she would end up hurting. But I will never hurt her. How could I do such thing when she is the only woman I love? Anyway, we'll be seeing each other more often starting tomorrow since she will start working in META. I smiled when I suddenly remembered what she looked like when she said she had to go home because she still have work tomorrow. If only
Vera Anderson's POV My mood was totally ruined after Margaret kissed Reid and I don't even know why I feel this way. All I know was that I'm not already in the mood. That woman was pissing me off and I don't like her. If she is really interested of Reid, then she is supposed not to do it here in META. She could have done it somewhere else. " Miss Vera, are you okay?", Reid asked me, with his voice a little shaky. "I'm fine sir, thank you", I responded, trying to sound natural. There was a deafening silence for some time but I'm just waiting here whenever he wants to chat with me. I can see Reid was busy encoding something on the computer. But sometimes I caught him taking a glimpse at me as if there's something he wanted to say. I did not bother asking him, instead, I focused my eyes on my computer screen. I just let the sliding door open so that, I could easily hear whenever he is talking to me. Then he stood up and came towards me. I slightly raised my head to meet his gaze. "
Royce Miller's POVWhen I saw Vera enter the function hall, my heart beat faster. She looks so beautiful in her long maxi dress like the real greek goddess who descended from Mount Olympus. Her loose long wavy dark brown hair also goes along with the swing of her body while going to where I am. Everyone's eyes were set on her like they were mesmerized by her presence. And I hate those men who can't take their eyes off her. The dress perfectly fits her, well, she didn't know that I personally chose the color and design of it.My heart kept pounding inside my chest upon looking at the woman I love coming towards me. If only I could tell the world who I really am and tell them how I love this woman. Yet, that's way too far at this very moment. God knows how much I wanted to tell Vera that it's me, yet, I was thinking of the possible consequences that might happen. So I have to act professionally because, with one false move, everything would surely go downhill.As soon as Vera got to whe
Vera Anderson's POV I have been lying in bed for several hours, but I'm still wide awake with my eyes focusing on the ceiling. It seems sleepiness doesn't want to visit me no matter how much I've tried all the sleeping positions. Everything that happened on my first day of work at META kept on coming back to my mind and I couldn't help but think about it deeply. I did not expect that I would be uncomfortable while I was with Reid inside the office. I don't understand why my heart kept on racing when he stared at me. And even when we were at the Welcome Dinner, I felt like I was drowning in the shivering sensation when his warm hand was clasping mine. And I'm certain that only one person had that effect on me. It's just Royce! The other side of my brain debated because how could it be Royce when he is in Beverly Hills? Besides, how could it be possible when Royce was not interested in business? I am really confused and I don't know what to believe. A part of my brain says it's Reid bu
Royce Miller's POVAfter meeting with Mr. Wilson and agreeing on a contract signing, we took our lunch since it's almost twelve noon. I was already starving and I know Vera too. She told me before she doesn't eat rice in the morning but only takes a cup of coffee and slices of bread, so I'm sure she is now hungry. "Uhm, you have a lovely EA Mr. Miller", Mr. Wilson complimented while we were taking our lunch. He was sitting opposite us and it's clear to me how his eyes were glued to Vera. I'm sure he was attracted to her because I can sense the way he stares and looks at her.Mr. Wilson is the manager of Universal Music Records and is probably about my age. I heard some rumors that this man had just got a divorce from his wife because of his deceitfulness. Anyway, it's his life and it has nothing to do with our business deal. Only that he will not include Vera in his list of women or I'll become his daunting opponent that will knock him down in a single blow."Mr. Miller? I said you'r
Royce Miller's POV My time in META went over and it's time for me to go home. I took a quick glimpse at Vera and I could see she was still busy on her computer. "Vera, shall we go now? I'll drive you home. I know you cannot drive yet because your arm was injured", I told her. "No sir, it's fine", she responded. "Vera, I insist okay?", I uttered. She did not protest anymore instead I saw her softly smiling. I don't know what she was thinking about but I smiled as well. We were about to leave the office after fixing everything when I saw Uncle Sam coming. I pushed the button for him to get inside. "Good afternoon sir", Vera greeted him. Uncle Sam just nodded as he took his seat on the couch. "I heard that you met a road accident a while ago. How are you Reid?", Uncle Sam asked and I saw the concern in his eyes. "I'm fine Uncle. Thank you. My EA had minor cuts on her arm but she is okay now", I responded. "You are not safe anymore Reid, so better to be extra careful when you
