3. A warning.

I made sure to wake up extra early today for work. I was proud of myself; I could now pay off my student loan and take care of my momma, my one and only inspiration along with God.

I was surprised to see breakfast placed on the kitchen counter for me to eat. Normally, it would be the other way around, with me making breakfast for my momma.

"You didn't have to, you know, Mom," I told her, taking a bite out of my scrumptious food.

"It's my duty from now on since you won't have any time anymore to prepare breakfast," she explained.

"I could've prepared it," I mumbled, downing my food.

"Just be grateful," she said, slapping me on the shoulder.

After finishing my breakfast, I immediately got ready and left for my first day of work.

"Here goes nothing," I said walking into the building.

I had on a grey skirt down to my knees, a red long-sleeve shirt, and my hair loose.

Approaching the front desk receptionist, her smile lifted the moment she saw me but faltered the moment I told her who I was. She passed me a pass and told me to take the elevator to level ten.

This would be the highest part of the building where the CEOs resided. I was twenty minutes early, which should give me a good impression.

Hopefully, I could focus on my work today and not be flustered by the two CEOs, especially Hunter. I thanked God he didn't remember anything about me; otherwise, they might have thought I was a gold digger and not bothered to hire me.

What a coincidence that I lost my virginity to Hunter only to be interviewed by him the next day.

I was still dampened about how I lost my virginity. Nothing could make up for the loss of what was something special to me. I was going to church Sunday to ask God for forgiveness, but it still would never make me feel any better about myself.

"It's good that you're here early. Let me direct you to your new office," Tessa, the Human Resources lady from yesterday, said the moment I got off the elevator. She led me into a big bright room with only a desk.

"This is your office room. You could always readjust it to your liking. Also, there are a few documents on your desk I want you to go ahead and read them, then sign in agreement. Your bosses are next door from this room; once you're finished, they'll tell you about your next task for the day. Now if there's anything you need to ask, I'll be in my office; my email is stored on your computer, you can always email me," she said.

With that being said, she left. I took a while to bask in the beauty of the entire room. I got to see outside the building's sky view. Magnificent.

Turning towards the documents, I read the agreement before signing. My payment was everything I didn't expect. It was huge. My student loan was nothing compared to it, and to top it all off, I got housing, health, medical, dental, vacation, retirement, and much more.

God had finally answered my prayers.

Thank you!

I signed my contract with the thought of bringing it back to Tessa soon. In the meantime, I buckled myself to face the two CEOs, Hunter and Hayden.

I got up from my desk the moment I heard Hayden ushering me to his office. I smoothed out my skirt not to look too disheveled by my attire.

Entering the office, I was met by Hayden and Hunter. I came to notice that Hayden's office was adjoining to Hunter's, so that's why he would be in Hunter's office most of the time he summoned me.

"Yes, sir?" I addressed Hunter in particular since he was the one who called me in.

Their presence would have seemed dominant to others, but I wasn't one to cower away. Although remembering I had lost my virginity to Hunter made me feel a bit uneasy at his gaze towards me.

"As today is your first day at work, your tasks for today will be getting to know your everyday routine here. I and Hunter will be showing you how it's done. With the housing facility, you'll be expected to move in by this weekend. You'll be living in our apartment building; that way, you'll be closer for us to reach out to you regarding work. Any questions?" Hayden fully explained to me.

"No, not at the moment," I told him.

"Good. Now here's a list of things you are expected to do as my personal assistant," he handed me a paper.

Just then, a lady I had not seen before entered the room. She was sporting a very short black skirt, almost a mini-dress, matched with a black top that showed quite a lot. Her brunette hair was long and straight down to her back. A very red lip gloss; she looked like a model.

I guess this was the type of woman they wanted. I was strictly here for work and nothing else.

"Hayden, I have completed all the paperwork you gave me from last week and faxed it off to our new clients," she proudly said, handing Hayden the files.

I didn't miss how she seductively pushed her boobs together as she handed them to him, smiling. I also noticed how she addressed a multi-billion-year CEO casually, without any title.

"I was beginning to think you were slacking off on the job. Good work," Hayden praised her.

"Lily, this is Olivia Wilson. She's my assistant. During your first month here, Olivia will be your guide as she's more experienced. Her room's just across from yours," Hayden stated.

"Nice to meet you," I smiled, but I was given a tight smile in return.

"Okay."

"I've emailed two files for both of you to complete by the end of the day. Don't disappoint. You're both dismissed," Hunter addressed us.

Exiting the room, I went straight to my office to begin my work. But before I could start, Olivia entered my office. I thought this could be the start of something new, but her words proved this wasn't to be the case.

"I'm impressed at how you landed this job. I've never seen them go for your type, so what did you do to convince the twins of hiring you?" She asked, nearing my desk.

"Excuse me?"

"Don't play dumb. I can tell by the looks of you, you're not qualified for this job. So tell me?" She rudely questioned again.

"For your information, I graduated from the University of Michigan," I told her. I didn't need to, but I just felt like justifying myself.

"Hmm, well, at least I know I won't be getting any trouble from you. You're certainly not their type. But I'd just like to warn you, don't try to make yourself seem more than what you are, and don't you dare try to seduce those men out there; they're mine," she warned, nearing my face.

"I had no intentions of doing such a thing. I'm merely here to work," I replied. My first day of work, and I was hated by someone I did nothing to.

"Good, and don't think you can double-cross me. I've managed to get quite a number of persons fired who were in your position. Just keep away, and we'll get along quite fine," she smiled at me.

"You don't have anything to worry about," I reassured her. I was definitely not one to mix office romance with work.

"Perfect!"

"Then nice to meet you, Lily," she extended her hand. She was a witch in disguise. I only hoped I didn't find myself in an altercation with her, or my job would be gone like dust in the wind.
