RainoraNice?I wondered as I returned back to my desk. Nikolas has never said anything nice to me before, so why start now. He just mocked my style of dressing yesterday, so why the sudden flattery. Maybe, he was been sarcastic again like before. I felt a huge lump in my throat. This suit was among the most beautiful collection in the store. Everyone kept starring at me since I got to the office today. What more can I do to impress him. I thought quietly. I hope he doesnt say we wasted his money and refund him back. No, he won't.I'm sure he doesn't even check his accounts. I assured myself."Lost in your thoughts again, Rainora?"May gently tapped my desk. She stood impatiently holding some files to be signed."Sorry May, something just happened in Mr.Nikolas's office." I responded as I hurriedly collected the files from her."Dont keep me guessing Rainora, what is it? May demeanor became serious as she gazed deeply into my eyes. Like she was trying to read into my soul."Mr.Nikolas s

NikolasSeveral months passed, and Rainora was growing more involved in her work. She handled all my appointments efficiently. She rarely met with other staff members who tried to pry into my matters and private meetings. I found myself trusting and relying on her more often. I hired her mainly to watch her to see if she would reveal the events of the nightclub. Subconsciously, she slowly became less irritable. To reward her hard work. I extended to her a hand-crafted envelope, with golden-color designs at its edges."Should I fax it out, Mr. Nikolas?" Rainora stretched out to collect the letter. She looked very professional in her dark blue suit and pencil trousers."No... it's an invitation to a fashion show." I smiled as she received it. Her face went pale in shock. She froze as she couldn't believe what I just said. "It will be held tomorrow night. I will tell May to get you dressed for the occasion. I turned around and went back to my office. I always enjoyed seeing her face sho

We arrived the venue for the meeting, we went to an isolated warehouse on the outskirts of the city. There was other black jeeps with tinted glasses. Security men were positioned all around the venue, including the rooftops. Other armed men stood against the respective families' cars. They all bowed respectfully as wren, rainora and I walked through. Rainora's eyes widened as we pass through the crowd. I gently whispered to her not to be afraid as we reached the door. The burly men slowly opened the doors as we entered. There was a round table with four seats each for all the remaining family leaders. The council head's seat placed at the top end of the table. Each of the leaders rose upon my arrival, alongside their associates as I reach the head's seat. After I sat down, I gestured the others to also sit down as well, while Wren sat down with Rainora at the corner of the room. I glanced at Rainora again, as she still seemed stunned looking at all the powerful men and women seated o

Rainora POVI got to the office 8.30am. Though the resumption time is 9.00am, I like to commerce work early to get ahead of the curve. Nikolas always had a busy schedule and he wanted his itinerary arranged before he set foot into the building.Done. As soon as I was done preparing the itinerary, I took the lift down to the office cafeteria. The glass doors inside the lift reflected the light blue suit looked nice on me, it accentuated my figure perfectly. I thought to myself while gently brushing off a slight wrinkle on the skirt. A quiet sound indicated I reached the cafeteria floor.Ding!The elevator door opened, I stepped out and walked towards the table that had a espresso machine and a set of plastic cups heaped on top of each other. I could see hot steam brewing out of the machine signifying that it was a fresh new batch. It always gave a refreshing taste when I took a freshly made cup of coffee. I closed my eyes as I tried to savour the rich taste of processed coffee seeds

Nikolas POVThe executive elevator swung open revealing a tall lady with a swam-like neck, and porcelain fair skin. Her long full hair touched her back. She wore a white fury coat, along with the latest fashion accessories. She had the aesthetically pleasing figure of a supermodel. I squinted my eyes and immediately felt a lump in my throat. Diane.As soon as our eyes met, she ran to me with her arms wide open towards me. " Hello Nikolas, I missed you," Diane said as she wrapped her arms around me for a hug. Instinctively, I felt a huge burden in my chest. Like there was a cold gaze at my spine. I stylishly removed Diana's arms interlocked behind me."What are you doing here Diane?"

She had a puzzled look but quickly regained her composure."I just returned from vacation, so I wanted to surprise you," Diane replied as she gazed at Rainora suspiciously."No one is allowed here without access."
