All Chapters of A night with my boss: Chapter 1 - Chapter 6

“Amber!!! Get your ass out of that bed!” Vee said, dragging my legs. I groaned, dragging a pillow over my head. “Your job is the only thing keeping us afloat for now, and you are not about to lose that job because of your reckless sleeping habit,” Vee, my best friend shouted. Okay, maybe she had a point. Yawning, I sluggishly got out of bed and shot her an annoyed look. Yes, I have a bad sleeping habit, but she was being dramatic. “Alright, Vee, I’m awake. I’ll just freshen up,” I mumbled. “Better,” she said. I could still hear her voice from outside my room, and I just shook my head. One minute she’s my best friend, and the next she acts like a mother who would whoop my ass if I misbehaved. If Vee didn’t drag me out of bed every morning, I’d probably be homeless by now. “Vee, I’m leaving. Take care of yourself!” I called as I hurried out of the house. I got to the office, hoping the supervisor wasn’t there yet then I saw people gathered at the notice board

Amber’s POV I knew the moment I stepped into that office that today was going to ruin me. Not because of the interview nor because of the building. Because of him. He was sitting behind the desk like he belonged there, like the entire world bent itself around his existence yet somehow, I wasn’t surprised. Of course he was rich, he was powerful. Of course the man I had a one-night stand with had to be him, Adrian Volkov, my potential boss. My stomach twisted, what was the point of this interview anyway? I shouldn’t have given in to Vee now look at where this got me. His eyes were on me now. Calm and Unreadable, like last night didn’t happen. “Miss Amber,” he said, voice smooth, almost indifferent, as usual. “You’re late.” “I…” I swallowed quickly. “I’m not late. I was told to come in at…” “You were told to be prepared,” he cut in. My lips pressed together. Okay. So this was how it was going to be. Professional. Cold. Like he didn’t have his hands on me just hours ago. “

Amber’s POVThe first day at work felt heavier than I expected. My outfit, the only decent clothes that seemed harmless at least to me, didn't sit well with some people. Not that I cared, I just wanted to make a good impression with the people I would be working with but the whispers started the moment I stepped into the office.“They’re really letting anyone in these days,” one woman said with disgust shown all over her face. “Did she even try? That outfit, really?” another sneered. I kept my head high, walking with my confidence and pretending not to hear. Pretending became an art over the years.But someone had heard. And it wasn’t just anyone.“Amber,” a voice cut through the murmur, low and angry. I looked up to find Adrian standing there, eyes sharp like they were boring into my soul. “You are not going to a meeting dressed like that.”I swallowed, keeping my composure. The look on his face was filled with irritation. His tone was demeaning and full of that arrogant authority
