My Boss and I

Chapter1

Felicia stood by the door of her parent's room, Eavesdropping on the conversation between her mom and her dad.

She wiped her tears after hearing about how her Father's company was slowly going down and how her parents could barely cater to the family anymore.

This made her feel so sad as she walked back to her room.

A few minutes into her room, she got an email from her phone saying she had been approved to work at RAYFOX COMPANY.

She was filled with joy instantly and she was to begin first thing the next morning.

On her way to work, while crossing the road, Felicia was not paying so much attention when a black, Mercedes car almost hit her.

She looked through the glass to see who was seated in the car.

Looking through the car, she saw a handsome-looking man, with piercing blue eyes and a strong jawline looking at her.

Then he said in a very cold voice

“You wouldn't wanna get hit on a Monday morning,” he says as he drives off.

Still standing there paused like she had seen a ghost as she watched the car drive off.

She realized she was running late for her first day of work as she walked faster till she got to her destination.

“Here is your desk Miss Felicia,” Jenny, a coworker of hers, says.

“Thank you”

She settles down at her desk to start working. While working, a young man walked in, and the whole aura of the room changed.

They were all passing greetings to him but he didn’t respond.

Jenny walked up to him

“ Would you like some coffee, Mr Miller? And there’s a new girl, the one who applied to be our Editor… she started work this morning.

Mr Miller; I’d like to see her and I told you

I DO NOT LIKE COFFEE. He said as he walked up to his office.

Felicia got to Mr Miller’s office. She stood by the door feeling very nervous.

Come in, said as she walked in slowly.

“Good morning Sir,

H..Hi I'm Felicia and I..iii am your new editor for RAYFOX I…’’ she said shuddering. He says interrupting her

“I know your name already Miss and take a seat’’.

And suddenly the image of Mr Miller flashed at her as she recalled he was the young man who almost ran her over earlier this morning.

I know you miss Felicia, you are the young lady who couldn't watch where she was going this morning and how would I trust you with my editing department for RAYFOX?

She stood there paused for a second saying in a shaky voice

“I. I am sorry Sir it wasn't’’…

“NO’’, he says interrupting her

don't call me sir, call me Mr Miller

‘‘ Ok Mr Miller I'm sorry and my mind was occupied at that moment and trust me, Sir…

‘‘NOT SIR’’, Mr. Miller said angrily

“Oh, I'm sorry Mr Miller your company is in good hands trust me”. He looked at her for a minute and said

“Come closer”

Felicia walked closer to him. He stood up and asked her to come closer. She looked at him while he gazed at her, She could see his dazzling blue eyes and how perfect his face was, too handsome for any lady to resist as she walked closer to him.

“Stretch out your hands,” he said in a very cold voice. She stretches out her hands.

“ Hmmm they are quite small, soft, and tender,” he says feeling her hand. For a split second, she felt a tingling feeling in her gut, looking straight into his eye.

“Ok Miss Felicia, you can leave”

Felicia left and went straight to her desk to finish some work still thinking of how Mr Miller held her hand.

It was closing hours and Felicia had to go home.

“How was the first day at work Felicia” Her mom said.

“It was good not so bad and my boss is some kind of weirdo and also a control freak”

“It's okay honey, you don't have to worry about him okay,” her mom said reassuring her

“I'll be fine Mom and you know how much we need the money”.

They both hugged and prepared dinner.

They had a knock on the door and on opening it, it was Emily, Felicia’s best friend. They both exchanged greetings as they went upstairs to Felicia’s room.

“So, I heard you now work for Mr. Miller, owner of RAYFOX,” she said excitedly.

“Well yes I am”

“ So how is your boss Mr Miller, he is my type of man, he is so handsome and sexy I just imagine him making love to me,” Emily said in a flirty voice.

“ Pls stop and I'm sure he has a lot of girls revolving around him” still talking when Felicia’s mom interrupts,

“ Dinner’s ready,” she says.

It was morning and Felicia got a message from Jenny her coworker.

“Mr Miller wants you in his office,” she says.

Felicia was surprised and nervous at the same time, remembering her experience with Mr Miller the last time.

“ You sent for me Mr Miller,” she said

“ The skirt you are wearing I like it, it makes you look hot”.

Felicia looked surprised

“Thank you, boss, red is my favorite color”

“ So is mine,” he said in a deep tone.

“ I want you to get me coffee every morning and I want it hot”

“Ok Sir… sorry I mean Ok Mr Miller”

“And again wear red more often, I like it.

“ OK, sir..sorry Mr. Miller,” she said in a shaky voice as she left his office.

It was closing time and Felicia was done for the day. She went home and told Emily how her day was and everything between her and the boss.

“ Hmmm Emily said”

“ he seems to like you a lot and you know you’re not up to his type of girl so don’t even get your hopes up”

“ no, he doesn’t and I don’t like him. OK, he’s just my boss and that’s it.”

“ yes and look at you. You’re not so pretty OK if he wanted someone he wouldn’t go for a girl like you ok” Emily said.

“ well, whatever”.

It was the next day at work and Felicia was done for the day. She parked her things to go home since it was closing hours.

“ Mr. Miller would like to see you”, Jenny said as she walked back to her desk.

Felicia whispered under her breath,

“not again”

as she goes to his office.

“ you wanted me,” she said

“ yes I want you Mr. Miller said staring right into Felicia’s soul.

Her heart dropped.

“ You want me”?

“ yes I want you to stay back with me to finalize the work. The company is working on”.

The whole building seemed and see as if everyone was already gone for the day, leaving Mr. Miller and Felicia all alone.

“I looked at the file and I think it’s more complicated than I thought,” she says

He was seated in his chair, staring directly at her. Felicia couldn’t help but notice how Mr Miller was focused on her dress instead of the file.

“Is everything okay boss?” she asked curiously

“ yes I’d like to go home now. We finish up tomorrow morning”.

She got into the elevator while waiting for the doors to shut, a hand was placed right between the doors it was Mr. Miller.

She felt her stomach drop as he stood close to her. He moved towards her and leaned forward. She could see his beautiful piercing eyes, and how close their lips were to each other. He held her waist and pulled near, for a second, she could feel the butterflies in her tummy again.

He pulled her closely, moving her slightly to the left to press the button of the elevator. Her mind was settled for a minute.

The slow elevator which moved from floor to floor, made her more nervous.

“ you look sweaty,” he says as he moves closer to her

“ I usually sweat a lot”

“ I like that”

Felicia turned glazing as his sparkling blue eyes bit her lips softly

“ don’t do that”. He whispers against her lips as he pushes her against the wall, breathing heavily

“Do what”

“ Biting your lips does something to me”

It was so intense, his eyes darken he held her.

He steps back and the elevator door opens.

Felicia stood watching and replaying what had just happened in her head.

She got home still reliving her elevator moment with her mysterious boss.

It was another day of work.

“ Here’s your coffee Mr Miller,” Felicia said as she brought the coffee to Mr Miller.

“ what is this?” He asked as he sipped the coffee. It’s cold and I told you I like my coffee hot.” he said in a very angry tone.

“ I’m very sorry, Mr Miller I didn’t mean for that to happen,” she said with her head facing the floor.

“ take this out of here”, and you’re going to be punished for this, now leave”

She took the coffee back to her desk in a very apologetic manner.

He seems to like you a lot, Jenny says, as she drops off some files at Felicia’s desk.

“ you think so”

“ I know so, he doesn’t even like coffee I bet he just wants you around.

And in two days the company is having its anniversary party and you have to come with a plus one because it’s gonna be a little bit fancy

She said that she headed back to her desks.

She returned a few minutes later, telling Felicia that Mr. Miller wanted her in his office.

“ Hi Mr Miller”

“ sit a shot to the door behind you”

She walked slowly towards the door and shut it

“ come here” he ordered her as she walked slowly towards him feeling very nervous

“ here as he brings out will package a beautiful, red sexy dress.

I want to see you on this he said handing over the dress to her.

“ But for what Mr. Miller?”

“ for the anniversary and you would have to come with a plus one”

“ OK thank you”

Now leave, he said with a cold look on his face as he watched her out of his office

“ You’d have to come with me, Emily”

“ of course what are friends for” she said excitingly

“ Well he got me this pretty dress and says he wants to see me in it”

“ who” Emily asked

“ My boss”

“You mean Mr Miller, THE MR, MILLER”

“ Yes and he is so bossy I don’t even like him”

“You shouldn’t be wearing that he probably gives his other 10 girlfriends that same dress so don’t feel special ok”

“ I know Emily,” she said looking at the dress. But it’s cute and would look good on me.

Emily; whatever.
