When I first started as Mr. Hayes assistant over two years ago he was happy, sweet, a great boss.

A man who had everything anyone could want. That all changed six months when his wife...

The love of his life left him for another man.

He went from the man that believed in true to love to using woman only for pleasure. He went from happy to dark...sweet to bitter and became so closed off from everything he became a shadow of himself. He was no longer the man that had everything.

He changed but I never realized my life was gonna change too when one day he called me to his office asking me to do something.

He shouldn’t...ask me to do something that I should have said no to.

The day he asked me to pretend to be his lover to get back at his soon to be ex-wife who was rubbing her new relationship in his face.

Why did he choose me when he was surrounded by a woman more beautiful than me... a woman who wanted him in ways I never, well so I thought...he asked me because I was the one his wife disliked from day one.

She never wanted me around...never wanted me to be her husband assistant...she was jealous, believed that I would steal him away, that was never on my mind.

I never seen him in that way or even thought about him in that way. Well so I thought but everything I thought.

I knew changed the day.

I agreed to be my bosses pretend lover.

Chapter One - Mr Hayes
Nova's P.O.V I took a deep breath before knocking on my bosses' door. I was not sure what mood he would be in today. "Who is it?" He snapped, giving me my answer. "Nova," I replied. "Sorry, come in." He sighed. I slowly made my way into his office, he had his back to me, staring out of the window into the city. I made my way over to his desk, my heels clicking against the floor, making him turn around in his office chair. He looked like he had a rough night, probably out partying until stupid o'clock as he does often now. He was not always this way. His wife left him for another man about six months ago, a man that was an acquaintance of his, since then he has not been the same. "How are you doing today? Can I get you anything?" I asked. "You know, same s**t different day. Coffee and pain killers would be a good start." He said. "Sure thing Sir." I smiled. I went to walk away to get his coffee and pain killers, but as I did. "Nova, have you ever had your heart broken?" He asked. I slowly turned back around to face him. He looked like a broken man, sad and ashamed. He was a shell of himself now; he used to be happy, full of life, full of love…now he uses women only for pleasure. He has a darkness to him and seems like he has lost all hope. "Yes," I said. "How did you get over it?" He asked. "I don't think I ever did. You just learn to deal with, hope one day you will find that someone that will make that heartbreak disappear." I said. "Oh, that doesn't sound too good." He sighed, running his hand through his dark hair. "Sadly it is part of life Sir," I said. "I guess. Anyway, that is all; you can leave now." He said no emotion to his voice. I nodded, heading out of his office to grab him what he asked for. I was in the staff room getting his coffee, some of the other girls that worked here standing around talking and giggling about Mr Hayes. "Was he any good? I heard he is a great lover?" Carmen smirked. "He is outstanding, indeed." Macie giggled. I rolled my eyes; he really needs to watch what he is doing. He needs to stop screwing around his own company before he gets himself into trouble. I was the only one I think that never looked at him in that way, to me, he was my boss, and I was his executive assistant. Yes, he was a handsome looking man, no one can deny that, but to me, it would be wrong. I made my way out of the staff room, ignoring them all as I did. I never really spoke to them or knew any of them that well because most of my time was spent with Mr Hayes and doing what he needed. I made my way back to his office, knocking lightly and waited until he told me to come in. He was on the phone when I arrived. I sat his things on his desk, going to leave him to it but he held his hand out, telling me to hold on. "OK, mother, I will be there." He sighed, rolling his eyes before putting the phone down. "Can you take a seat, Nova? I need to talk to you about something." He said a serious look on his face. I nodded, sitting across from him. He leant back on his seat, looking at me with an intense look in his eyes. "Have I done something wrong?" I asked worriedly. "No. I need to ask you for a favour. You have worked with me now for what two years?" He asked, and I nodded, "We get on well don't we?" He added, and I nodded again "We trust each other, don't we?" He said, finishing off. "Yes, Sir," I said, not sure where he was going with this. "I need to ask you a huge favour?" He said, his words a little shaky, he was nervous about what he was going to ask me. "A favour? What kind of favour?" I asked. "I need you to be my date on Saturday for the Gala I need to attend." He said. Date? Does he want me to be his date? What? "Your date? Why me? There is plenty of other women that work for you that would happily go with you," I said confused. "Exactly! You don't lust after me like the other women that work for me. That is why I need someone I can take that I know will not try to seduce me, someone I know I will not end up in bed with at the end of the night. It is only for one night. It would be pretend, just to get my mother off my back. Plus, Darcy will be there with him, and I don't want to show up alone yet again. I know what they all think, I know what they all say behind my back." He said. "You do realise that she hates me, right? Darcy I mean?" I said. It was true; she hated me from the day she met me. She tried to get Mr Hayes to fire me, and to this day, I do not know why. I had never done anything to her. I was the only one that never wanted him. "I know, another reason I want you to come, to piss her off." He said. "I never understood why she hated me?" I said. "She was jealous of you. She was convinced that you were the one that was going to take me away from her, make me start having an affair." He said. "Why would she think that? Everyone could see you loved her whole heartily. Everyone could see she was the only one for you. You treated her like a queen, so why would she think you would start having an affair with the one woman that does not drool over you?" I asked. "Because you are more beautiful and classy than the others. Plus we spent a lot of time together. You saw me as much as she did." He said, his voice breaking as he spoke about her. I could never understand why she did that to him? He gave her everything. He looked after her, loved her and then she left him for a guy who, to be honest, has nothing on Brandon. I don't mean only in the looks department, I mean in every way. "Anyway about this Gala, will you come with me please?" He asked, a hopeful look in his eyes. "Mr Hayes, I don't know if that is a good idea," I said. "Please Nova? You are the only one I trust in this damn company. One night?" He asked. I wanted to tell him, no, but the desperate look in his eyes was making it hard for me to do that. "OK. One night." I said. "Thank You. I owe you for this Nova." He said, managing a smile. "Yes, you do," I said with a small smirk. "How about dinner?" He asked. I coked my brow at him, not sure what to think of his suggestion. "As a thank you, nothing more…promise." He laughed. "Yes, sure. Let me know when and where." I smiled. "How about tonight at about eight pm?" He asked, "At the little Italian place, Franco's?" He added. "Yeah, that is OK with me. Well, I better get back to work. Call if you need anything, Sir." I smiled, standing up. "I will do, thanks again, Nova." He smiled. I gave him a quick nod before heading back to my own office. I had a lot of work to do. If Mr Hayes and I get seen together outside of the office twice in one-week people will start talking. I am hoping agreeing to this is not going to make things difficult for me at work.
