Eros Kingston
After taking my cup of coffee, I sighed as I stood up from my seat and made my way to my dad's office. I know what he wants to talk about. That's what he has been saying for the past one year and I'm already fed up.
I liked my normal lifestyle, when I was not the CEO of this company. Sure, I had many women at my feet, the influencial ones though. I've never done out with anyone below my standards, never.
The women lived been with me, even if it was always for a week. I always already inform them ahead. Sex for a week and we're done. Besides who would be able to resist this body.
I entered the elevator and clicked the button to the top floor. That's where my dad's office is. Since he already handed over to me he started staying in the highest floor. I don't know why he's worried about the company.
I might be reckless, but that's with the women, not office work. I might not like being the CEO of this company, but there's nothing I can do about it.
The elevator dinged and the door opened. I made my way towards the brown mahogany door ahead of me. I really don't want to have a conversation with this man.
You could say my relationship with my father is strained.
I knocked on the door as I adjusted my tie. "It's open." Came his response.
I released a huge breath and then opened the door.
"Father." I acknowledged him as I took a sit on the black leather and then crossed my legs and made myself comfortable on the seat.
"I thought u were not going to come" my dad said and chuckled
All I did was nod my head. I don't find anything funny in me not coming."What is it you want to tell me dad?" I asked looking around. I noticed that he already changed some things...like he just got that white book shelf, the black couch-
"There is family dinner next week Friday and your elder sister wants you to be there, the whole family wants you to be there with your girlfriend" he said and looked at me.
"But dad we have been over this before, I'm not-"
He cut me off "ready? That's always your excuse Eros. Your grandmother said she is expecting you and your fianceè".
I sighed and said "then I'm not going to the dinner. You can't force me to do what I dont want to" I said already walking out
"EROS ALEXANDRO KINGSTON!!" my dad shouted and stood up from his seat "you will not walk away from me when I'm talking to you!!".
I stopped in my tracks and turned around to face him "if you do not attend that dinner with your girlfriend or whatever I'll withdraw every money in your account and you will no longer be the CEO of this company. I'll make your life a living hell. And, I give you one and a half years to have a wife and a child or else everything you own will be lost" he said angrily looking at me straight in the eye.
He was going to do it, yes, it is something he can do. Something he is capable of. I made an attempt to talk but nothing came out. I turned my back at him and walked out.
Fuck him and his money! Where the hell I'm I going to get a girlfriend who will accept to be my wife and have a kid for one and a half years.
Damn it!!"Miss Jackson! My office now!" I called as I made my way inside my office. I was annoyed, beyond furious. I needed to release some steam and miss Jackson seemed to be the perfect person for that.
She always found a way to get on my nerves, one way or the other. I don't know if she does it intentionally or not, but it always works.
"Cancel all the meetings I have today." I said typing furiously in my computer.
She made a questioning noise at the back of her throat.
"Are you deaf?" She stood there with her wide eyes and then shook her head.
She was about to go out of my office when I said, "and, where the hell are you going!"
She turned around and then crossed her arms over her chest, allowing it to rise up and I swear it caught my attention.
Whore.
"Till you get your shit together, I can't continue to work for someone that does not know how to talk nicely to his Personal assistant. With the two months I have spent working with you, you have made my life a living hell. I can't get to do anything in peace! What the fuck is your problem?!"
"You complain about every little thing! You snap at me for every little thing!"
"You might be a hot and sexy boss, but till you get your shit together, I'm done!" Followed by the slam of the door.
She called me hot and sexy?
She just quit you fool!
I'm screwed.
Kelvin, one of my friends got me a personal assistant immediately I told him what went on between myself and Janet. Even though he told me it was my fault I was not ready to accept the blame.I already had three personal assistants since the time Janet left and now, Monday. Don't blame me! None of them is as good as Janet. They are either too sluggish or flirting and Janet is none of that.I made up my mind to go to her house as I close for the day. To apologize at least. I can't blame her, I know I'm at fault, even if it's hard to accept it.I've talked to Kelvin about what my father said. He is a Lawyer and he has brought up a few ideas which I did not like at all. He said I could date one of the girls I've had sex with and I told him I'm never taking any of them to meet my family.I don't want girls like that meeting my family. Most of them are good diggers. I know I'm a man whore, but the woman I'm goi
I waited for about fifteen minutes before she came down. She was putting on a black jeans and a grey sweatshirt coupled with a pair of vans.She already removed her hair from the bun it was, she already straightened it and it was obvious she was on makeup.With make up or without makeup she was pretty either way."You ready?" I asked her as I stood up from the couch. My eyes scanning her appearance."Yh." She visibly gulped, nodding her head. She picked up her black purse, probably in case of money."You know I'm paying right? You don't need your purse."She shrugged as she turned off the TV and we made our way outside.I decided on having pizza, since we were both not dressed elegantly for a exquisite diner.I opened the door for her and she mumbled a 'thank you'"What are we having?" She asked me as she strapped in her seat belt.I started the engine after strapping myself in too "Pizza?"
After the dinner I had with Janet I dropped her off at her house and she was silent throughout. She kept playing with her fingers and bouncing her leg."Goodnight.""Night. And thanks for tonight." She gave a small smile before closing the door.I just hope she comes to work tomorrow.I drove straight home, my penthouse. I put off my shirt, turned on the TV to distract myself and then poured myself a shirt of whiskey.I pulled out my cell phone and then called Kelvin."Hey man." His voice sounded hoarse."I talked to Janet about the -""Janet? The one that works in your office? Your personal assistant?" He cut me off as he continued to throw questions at me.I sighed and ran a hand through my hair, "yes. That one.""So, what did she say?" I heard papers ruffling. He was probably working on a project and I was here disturbing him with my own problem."Nothing.""Nothing?"
Immediately I got to my office, I arranged my stuffs and then logged in into the company's laptop. I was busy replying a mail from someone who applied for an appointment when my phone rang.Mom.I picked up the call and the first thing I heard was my mom crying at the other end of the line."Mom...mom, what's wrong?" I asked fera evident in my voice."Your brother, it's Andrew." She hiccuped which only means she has been crying since. "He...he was involved in a car accident" she sniffed"Wha.... what?! How?!" I stood up from my seat pacing around my office, I could already feel the headache coming."He went to this party we didn't know about with some of his friends. They were about to come drop him off at home when a trailer that had already lost control hit them." I knew she was crying all over again."He was the only one that made it, but with a broken leg." She sighed "and some broken bones." She added later."You sho
Thenext morning, I woke up earlier than usual, probably because of the thought of me being his wife finally settled in, even if we're not yet bounded by the contract. After we had our talk, before we left where we had our lunch, he told me he already made arrangements for the contract file to be made. And, we'll sign first thing tomorrow morning.I cleaned up my room and the living room. Immediately I got home from work, Jade was the first person I called. Everything was happening so fast in a blur.After I blurted everything out to her, she just reassured me it was going to be alright. And then, we took ice cream and watched Netflix.Presently, I was in my kitchen making breakfast, bacon and eggs. I already put in my office wear, a black riffle cuff sheer Swiss dot mesh sleeve too and a black faux leather high- rise leggings, coupled with my black heels. Soon breakfast was ready and as I was about to make my way out of the door I heard a knock.
Under seven minutes Eros was standing outside my door as he watched me pack some of the files I needed to finish at home. "You know you can leave those right?""Yes. But I really need to finish it." I replied as I looked at him. He had one of his hands placed inside his pocket while the other held his car key."I'm ready." I exhaled and straightened my skirt. I felt his eyes on my mid thigh and I swear his eyes were filled with lust. I cleared my throat in order to clear the awkwardness in the room.Because we have this contract between us doesn't mean I was still not attracted to him, I definitely was!He glanced up at my face and then gave me a small smile as we both made our way out of the office. Immediately we got out of the elevator, he wrapped his arms around my waist, pulling me closer to him.I couldn't stop the blush that rose to my cheeks. My colleagues all looked at us as if they just saw an alien, as if what happened this morning was e
I woke up the next morning with my alarm blaring loudly into my ears. I trained and searched for it mindlessly. I finally found it and then put the alarm off. "Do I need to get up today."I sat down uprightly I'm my bed and then grabbed my phone. I scrolled through my messages and saw I had one from Eros.Good morning.Since tomorrow is the dinner we're having with my family I decided you should move in today. And, you don't need to come to work, I'll take care of things.The Parkers would be in your side around ten.Ten? I checked the time and it was past eight! I had less than two hours to pack my stuffs and clean up myself!I got out of bed and ran into the bathroom. Did all the necessities and dressed up.Since I had already packed
Holy shit!That was the first thing that came to my mind immediately I entered the room.The room was large. Larger than the one in my apartment. It had a queen sized bed, decorated with pillows of all sorts and placed on it was a white duvet.I placed the duvet in between my hands and felt it, it is....soft. I can't wait to lay on that bed. I walked straight into the closet and wow! It was already filled with clothes and shoes. Surprisingly they were my sizes.Weird.After unpacking my things and cleaning the room, I was already all so sweaty after the cleaning and decided to take a shower.I changed into a sweat shirt and a sweat pants and then packed my hair in a bun. I went downstairs and Daine already told me dinner was ready.Should I wait for him? I thought.I told Daine that I was going to wait for Eros t
