" Good morning Tessa, you look different today." The commander says immediately I step inside Tessa's office.
'The only dirt on the commander is only having a mistress. His secretary is rumoured to have an affair with him. It's not confirmed but there are signs.' Mark's words flash in my mind.
" How so? " I asked, a big fake smile plastered on my lips.
I have nothing but hate for this man but at this point, I have to play the part of his lover.
Although Mark says that it's not confirmed, I could already see the truth from those lustful eyes of his by how he was eye raping me.
If it was up to me, I would thrust a dagger into those eyes and gouge them out.
" You smell differently and you seem more graceful." The commander replies.
I have the urge to roll my eyes but I know that's inappropriate.
Worse would be, my identity will be discovered and that will jeopardise the whole investigation.
To take care of my scent which heightened after mating, Theo brought for me s scent concealing powder from a witch.
To make sure I don't arouse suspicion,I changed Tessa's cologne and applied a different one.
" I wanted to try a new brand of Cologne so I bought it. Do you like it?" I ask batting my eyelids to appear coquettish.
Just the idea of acting cute In Front of another man makes me disgusted but without any option,I can only endure it.
" I like it." The man said with a grin, " I wonder if you have changed your closet too." He added.
" Don't be naughty now. Don't bring that up, we are working and others might hear you." I replied, walking to stand near the window, overlooking the bustling City.
For a secretary, she sure has a standard office.
I remember when I worked here as an officer, we had to share an office.
But a mere secretary has the luxury of such a big and classy office.
" Is that not the reason your office Is sound proof? Besides, Is there a spot in this office I haven't f****d you in?" The man says moving impossibly close to me.
I clench my fists together, controlling the urge to smash them on his face and disfigure his already ugly face.
Does he not have any shame?
He's already married and dares talk about his affair with his mistress as if it's an achievement.
Controlling my rage, I turn to look at him with a smile.
" I know that but people have started speculating about our secret relationship. I don't want others finding out what we have." I replied.
My eyes trail down to see the bulge on his trousers.
He better not be thinking that he will have his way with me here or I'll be forced to blow my cover myself.
" I don't care what others say. They can't do anything to us." He says moving to hug me but I side step.
" Commander!" I whine before smiling at him.
" I do care. If your wife finds out about your infidelity,you might lose your job." I remind him seriously.
The cheating bastard is afraid of having his wife know that he is not faithful.
Although his wife is currently a stay at home mommy, she's more connected than him considering she comes from a family of generals.
It is rumoured that she is the reason he got hired.
He married her purposely for her connection.
He doesn't love her but his wife loves him dearly.
Looking at the scumbag, I only pity the lady for having such a poor taste in men.
" You are always concerned about me, that's why I love you." The man shamelessly confessed.
I almost puked blood but then again, I suppressed my disgust with a smile.
" Of course I care about you." I lied with a straight face, feeling disgusted by my own words.
" I'll see you then tonight, get ready for me." The man said suggestively.
Is he saying that he would be visiting Tessa tonight? But Tessa isn't around and I'm the one staying at her house.
Oh no! I have to look for a way to stop him.
" That's not possible, I'm on my periods!" I blurted the first excuse that comes to mind.
A frown settles on his face making my heart pick its pace.
" But it's merely two weeks since you last had your periods?" The man asks and I fight the urge to knock my forehead.
" Irregular periods due to hormonal imbalance." I replied.
" Is that the reason you don't seem to be in a good mood?" He asks.
Good mood my foot!
Do I have to jump on him to show that I am in a good mood?
Anyway, this is not Tessa.
I don't know how to please a man.
" What do you think?" I reply with a question.
" Okay, I'll let you be. Get well soon because I want to smash that p***y until I have you screaming my name in ecstasy." The man says before walking out.
I take a deep breath, calming NY nerves and collecting my emotions which are all over the place.
I can't believe all the people, why did I have to impersonate a mistress?
" Calm down! This is for clearing your name and catching that bastard." I chant, hoping that can get me settled.
After several attempts, I walk to sit behind Tessa's working table which is mine now in the meantime.
I have to find a chance to bug the commander's office.
I want to monitor everything he does in that office.
Who does he call? What do they talk about?
Everything.
Maybe by doing that, I'll finally get a lead to stop this nightmare.
The day ends with me getting nothing concrete.
All the files in Tessa's office are about cases which need to be computerised and sent to the Head office.
Nothing seems out of place.
As for buffing the commander's office, I know I have to take time and devise a plan.
I can't do that while he's away since to access his office, I have to know the code.
Alternatively, I can do that when he's present.
Although this is the hardest and most dangerous way, it is the most convenient way to arouse zero suspicion.
