EMBER"What did you do when you were asked about he display of the preparations?" He asked, holding a neutral expression to not scare them too much. They all gulped and looked nervously at each other. "QUICK.""Sir, we told them we need a little more time.. that.. we are left with some more last minute details and the display will be ready by..", Will dragged his words. Ember knew they had messed up. They had clearly panicked because Zaire was unreachable and without telling them the truth, they had just lied that there were no issues with the preparation to get some more time at hand."By what? When did you reschedule the display to?""T-tomorrow," Jameson choked out, depicting this idea was his, that's why he was that reluctant to speak out. Zaire ran a hand on his face, pushing his hair back, clearly thrown to despair. They didn't even have 3 days to fix it anymore, they had 12 hours approximately. It was impossible, Ember could feel the same despair coursing through her viens."Wha

EMBER"If we don't fix this, you'll never even get the chance of doing it again," he said, cunningly, that made her gulp. Technically it was all their responsibility to check if everything was going according to the plan and not Zaire because his job was to check progress, attend meetings and do the approvals. Zaire couldn't be blamed for a thing. "We'll get to the people who tricked us after we solve the issue. So, do better, fix this mess.""So, does anyone have an idea till now? Anything, you can say anything," Samantha encouraged them to at least start the conversation as everyone looked around but no one spoke up. Zaire buried his head in his hands. Everyone had given an idea once but all of them went in vain, the second discussion was even lesser in fruitfulness.The meeting went on and on and on without any stopping. The ideas surfacing were redoing the whole theme for Hell but that would never be done on that short time. The next was to talk to Mr and Mrs Davis to ask for more

EMBER"Wait.. a minute," he said in his low voice, they were the only two people in the conference room and he wanted her to stay right there. Ember's chest rose and fell and she knew she shouldn't get ahead of herself by getting her hopes too high but she couldn't help it, she could already feel it happening. The awaiting."Y-yes sir," she said. He waited for a moment and then pulled on her hand to flip her body towards him. Then he slightly pushed her by her waist till her back was exactly against the wall and her bewildered eyes trying to scan every inch of his face. He just was so confident in himself and the way he always knew what he was doing to her turned her on even more. He was never afraid to show how much he actually wanted her."Is calling me Sir turning you on?" He asked in his raspy voice that sucked all the breath out of her throat. How did she keep falling for him ignoring everything over and over again? How did she do that to herself? But he was Jack. He was a mystery

EMBER"What are you thinking?" He asked, finally breaking the silence."So, anything, right? Anything I ask you, without questions," she made sure, as a trick to test him."I already said it, anything you want," he answered right then, with no hesitation at all. Ember thought, if he wasn't hesitant, what was her excuse? The drive was still going on and the wild idea took over her. "Okay so..", she started, not giving him time to comprehend he was going to be given a task right at that moment. "Stop this car in the middle of the road and kiss me."His head snapped to her at that rash and unusual task but Ember knew she was doing it to see to what extremes he would go. That seemed fit enough for the first task. He scanned her face and realised she was serious. A quick look behind him and he immediately brought the car to a stop at that exact moment, 0 questions or hesitations.Hurrying, he leaned in and snapped off her seatbelt and in one moment, he had swept her off her seat and placed

RUBY"Fine then, you really think you're that slick when you are anything but that. If that's what you're deciding to do then I'll do something too. And something that you won't be able to hold against me because in your style, technically, I am not going against the deal as well. That's okay, I'm guessing?" She said, with a menacing look on her face that emitted what she actually felt and it certainly cannot be faked."You can't do that, it will be a clear breach of the contract and it certainly would not be as well explained as mine because there's no such detail written in the papers as well," he said, a little defensive in her opinion but something that can be very well recognised through his body language. She knew she didn't have to work that hard to unleash the goal.Ruby offered him a bitter smile before turning around and pulling out a piece of paper. It was the copy of the contract they signed and Travis watched her carefully as she opened the paper and started running her ey
