SERAPHINA“You are in trouble, Sera”I turned to Greta who stood at the door with her hands on her hips and a gleaming smile on her face.She was the one person I totally detested and her hatred for me was in equal measure.“Not today, Greta. Maybe tomorrow when I am in the mood for your nonsense”“Sadly, you would not be here tomorrow”What the hell did that mean?I was just about to say something else when Darren, our manager walked in.“You have been summoned, Sera by the boss”My heart skipped at this.“Summoned? Why?”“I told him you were in charge of the project siren”“But I wasn’t”“He does not need to know that and you will not tell him that Greta and I were in charge or I swear to God, I will make your life a living hell. Now go on, he is waiting for you.If I had known today would be the day I came face to face with the devil himself, I would have stayed at home in my pajamas and slept. A far better choice than walking into the lair of Tristan Blackwell, heir to Obsidian In

SERAPHINAI waited for the ground to open up and swallow me or better still for the world to end but it was like God was having a laugh at my predicament because none of that happened.I remained standing where I was looking up into the face of my boss, Tristan Blackwell.He did not move; just stood there, staring down at me with those silver gray eyes that had haunted my thoughts reflecting just enough amusement to make me want to scream.For a long, unbearable minute, no one said a word.Then slowly, he arched his head to the side.“Well, this is very unexpected”I swallowed hard, my throat dry. “Mr. Blackwell…”“Please,” he drawled, stepping closer, cutting off any hope I had of turning around and bolting.“We are hardly in the office now, are we, Ms. Cross? I think you can drop the formality after everything that has happened between us.”My eyes widened as they followed the trail of his hand to his crotch. He was aroused with my dance, that much I could see.I took a step back in

TRISTAN“No.”That was the first thing that broke her silence. For a few seconds she hadn’t moved and I could have sworn that she had become a statue. I knew the question had taken her by surprise but I certainly wasn’t expecting an outright no.“Excuse me?” I said, my tone betraying my disbelief.“You heard me.” She said outrightly, this time with a stronger tone, as she rose up from the chair.It was like the whole air in the room had been sucked out as she stared right at me. I could see the change in her eyes from surprise to something much sharper.Offense.“Are you crazy?” she began, “Scratch that. You actually must be a lunatic for you to even blurt that out of the blues.”I leaned back a bit, as I watched her unload on me. Something about the scene and the fury in her eyes seemed to turn me on, but I dared not show it. Not while she was in this state.“Surely you must have hit your head hard on your way here because if you think for a second that I am going to humor whatever f

SERAPHINA“Wow,” I heard Darren say, as he pushed the door of my office open and stepped inside. He was accompanied by that fly of his; Greta, who was always buzzing by his side. “That was honestly inspiring.”I looked up from my desk slowly, pen still in my hand as I met his grin with a flat stare. I could still remember the conversation we just had after the presentation. It had barely been an hour now and here he was pretending like every single thing was rosy between us. I had to admit it was surprising, but in a way I knew exactly what he was trying to do.“What do you want?” I finally asked, in a cold voice as my eyes shifted between the two of them.Greta let out a little laugh, in an attempt to lighten the mood.“Oh, come on, Sera.” She said, teasingly. “You were incredible in there. You know, at the back of my mind I kind of always knew that you would pull yourself out of all of this… exceptionally if I might add.”I still didn’t say anything as that blank expression lay etc
