SEREIAValerian’s hand settled on the small of my back as we stepped out of the penthouse suite, his hands were warm sending a jolt through me and as we moved through the corridors my heels clicking on the marble floor and I couldn’t help but lean slightly into his warm arms.As soon as we reached downstairs I was met with a sleek black limousine, that sat by the curb. Arthur stepped out of it— dressed in a neat suit and he had a professional smile on his face.He held the door open and I slid onto the leather seat, my silk dress rustling against the leather. Valerian followed behind me his presence filling the entire space and almost immediately the engine of the car revved and we began gliding through the streets of London and then, Valerian opened his tablet.“Reginald Edgar is the CEO of Edgar innovations, they specialize in high precision manufacturing but their systems are vulnerable and that is why this merger who integrate NETHRIX into quantum-level cybersecurity creating an u

SEREIAThe first thing I registered as soon as I woke up was heat, it was a deep radiating warmth and it was accompanied with a steady, rhythmic thump against my cheek.My eyes fluttered open, my breath hitching immediately I noticed that I was on Valerian’s chest— his arm slung possessively around my waist pulling me impossibly close.How did I get here? I must have rolled over in my sleep and now I was on his broad chest, and his hard muscles.I inhaled his cologne allowing myself for a fleeting moment do stupid things with my boss, like tracing my hands on his chest and enjoying this intoxicating closeness.The alarm bells in my head suddenly blared and I tired pulling myself away but his arms tight end around me, as he let out small breaths on my head.I froze immediately my heart hammering against my chest. This was bad and if he woke up I wasn’t sure he would like this.A few more minutes passed, and I was still stuck in the hug. I stayed there for what felt like hours and final

SEREIA The limousine purred as we sped through the New York evening. I watched the city lights blur and my hands instinctively held Liyana’s. She kept tapping her fingers against the chair— a nervous habit she had developed and even tho her eyes were wide with wonder as she stared at the streets,?I still knew she was nervous about moving to a new place. The car slowed down turning off the main road into a private drive and massive iron gates swung open with a silent grace that made my breath hitch. I had been to Valerian’s house once, but the house was so magnificent that seeing it again felt like walking into a dream. “Wow!! Is this a castle mommy!” Liyana whisper yelled her eyes wide as she stared at the imposing mansion. Valerian sat opposite is watching Liyana, he wasn’t smiling or anything instead his face remained stoic and impassive but he still tracked her movements. "He always was one for grand gestures," Gracie murmured, a hint of something I couldn't quite dec

SEREIA The word liability rung repeatedly in my head as I watched Sarah who was waiting at the door of Valerian’s office.I had stood up from my desk and stood in front of his door, watching him lean back in his chair, looking calm like his staff didn’t just call a meeting. His eyes which were cold and clear, moved throughout the entrance and finally settled on Sarah.. "Tell them the meeting is in Conference Room A and in fifteen minutes I want them there. Attendance is mandatory for all department heads and above.""Yes, sir." Sarah said hastily as she fled his office, the clicking of her heels too loud in the silent office.As soon as she left my hands became clammy and all this things that had been said replayed in my head. Deteriorating workspace environment. Liability. They meant me, I mean the stares and whispers from the lobby should have told me all I needed to know but I decided to ignore.Valerian stood up from his chair, straightening his suit jacket with a tug. “Come”

SEREIA“Mommy, my hair won't listen." Liyana complained and her small voice pulled me out of my thoughts."Sorry, baby," I murmured as i brushed her curls gently my mind running with a thousand thoughts."Will Mr. Puzzle be there for breakfast?" Liyana asked, as she wiggled on the small stool."I don't know, love bug." I answered still combing her hair and after I was done I put it in pig tails and we exited her room to go downstairs for breakfast.It turns out Valerian was there, he sat at the head of the table, dressed in a dark suit with his tablet placed beside his coffee.As soon as we sat down Gracie placed a plate of toast in front of Liyana. “Eat up child.” She said rubbing Liyana’s cheeks and Liyana immediately dug in.Valerian finally glanced up at me after a few minutes. "My security guy will take you and Liyana to the school. He will wait outside and escort you back." Valerian informed me and I scrunched my nose almost immediately, the thought of being followed by a bald
