Andrea’s POV
Today is Friday, I am trying to avoid him at all cost for the past two days, I would give him his coffee with a serious face and without looking at him, I wouldn’t go to his office to read his schedule, instead, I would Send in the mail, somehow I survived till today.
I was arranging the file on the shelf which is positioned behind my chair, I finally finished it and turned to my table and I jerked back in shock, the devil itself was sitting in front of my desk.
“Are you surprised, Ms. James?”
“I ... I didn’t expect you in my cabin sir, you could have called me if you needed anything,” I said still in shock.
“So, I shouldn’t come? Huh?.” He asked raising his brows.
“No sir, I ... I didn’t mean—,” he cut me off.
“Look, Ms. James, it hasn’t been even one week since your joining, you have already started to avoid me, you barely come to my office, and if you come, you don’t even look at my face, am I looking that bad?” He asked with a smirk.
“No sir, it’s not like that—,” he cut me off again.
“Let me finish, first of all, you don’t know how to work as a personal assistant, I know this is your first professional job, but at least try to learn it, I had many professional assistants, but due to various reasons I have been firing them, I don’t tolerate mistakes, Ms. James.” He told walking near the glass window in my office.
His words were like a knife stabbing right into my chest.
“I’m sorry sir, this won’t happen again,” I said looking straight at him.
“What happened that day was just—,” I cut him off.
“What happened that day doesn’t mean anything to me, I don’t want to talk about it, and let’s both forget it,” I said.
First, he was shocked to hear it, but his face was blank, he just nodded and left my office.
I took his schedule and walked to his door and knocked, I heard him say ‘come in’ I walked into his office, stood before him, and started to read his schedule.
“You have a meeting with the finance department at 11 am, and a video conference at 2 pm and a final meeting at Mr. Jones place at 3 Pm,” I said and closed the file, he didn’t even look up, he was busy on his computer.
“Okay, I want you to proofread all these files, I want them before 3 pm, also get me the expense report of the past 3 years from the accounting department,” he said while typing on his computer.
“Okay, anything else Mr. Williams,” I asked while grabbing the files from his table.
“Yeah, bring me a strong cup of black coffee,” he said.
I said okay and returned to my cabin, placed the files on my table, and rushed to the coffee room, I finished brewing his coffee and took it to his cabin.
“Sir, your coffee,” I said.
He just nodded, I left his cabin and headed to the accounts department, I collected all that he had asked for and submitted it to him. I ran back to my office and started to proofread the files.
Later I attended the meeting with him, took some notes, It’s 2:00 pm now, I skipped my lunch because he has given me 15 files to proofread, I felt hungry I went to the coffee room to have some cookies.
It was 2:20 pm when we left for the meeting at Mr. Jones's company, the meeting was boring, Mr. Williams was explaining the project and I was gawking at him, he was such a powerful man, no one talks against his decision, he was so demanding and so hot.
whenever I'm near him or think of him, I feel my heart beating fast, I don't know why. I wanted to argue with him about the kiss that day, but I know he would say that it was a mistake and I don't want my first kiss to be a mistake, so I just said it meant nothing to me, just to shut his mouth and it worked.
The meeting was over, everybody congratulated him. He left the conference hall, I packed the files in my bag and headed out, my boss was on the phone walking back and forth near the car, he finished his call and he opened the car door for me, I dumped my shock inside and smiled lightly thanking him, he closed the door and came to another side and sat next to me, the car started to move and there was an awkward silence between us.
My heart was fluttering, I felt butterflies in my stomach, my body felt hot, I don't want to feel all this for him but my body does the complete opposite. I was about to ask him whether he checked the files that I had submitted after proofreading, but suddenly my phone rang, I answered it.
"Hello."
"Hey Andrea, It's Morgan."
"Morgan?", I asked trying to remember but before I could say anything Mr. Williams snatched my phone from my hands, he opened his car window and threw it out.
I blinked a few times, my mouth is hung open now but he sat there in his place as though nothing had happened. what the hell he's thinking he is?
"Mr. Williams, why did you do that?",
"You're not going with him," he said looking out. I'm done with this.
"Why?", I asked controlling my anger. Is he possessive of me? Does he like me? Oh, come on, no way for that.
"Don't question me, you're not going, that's it," he said looking towards me.
"Do you know what, you're such an asshole," I said and turned towards the car door to open it?
Suddenly he grabbed my hand and pulled me onto his lap, his hands were clutching my waist.
"Are you going to jump out of the running car, Andrea?" he asked tucking a strand of hair behind my ears.
"Leave me," I tried to squirm out of his hold, but his grip tightened and he pulled me closer to his chest, we were so close now.
"Calm down, you're being so feisty," he said, his lips touching my ears, chills ran down my spine, avoiding my reaction for him, I pushed him a little to put some space between us.
"Oh, you want me to calm down huh? you threw my phone out, you make decisions for me, and if I ask you why, you simply say not to question you, and how the hell do you want me to calm down," I shouted but I regretted it immediately.
His lips crashed on mine, he kissed passionately, he nibbled on my lower lip to give him entrance but I didn't open it, he lightly bit my lip and I moaned out, he took this chance and plunged into my mouth, I'm lost now, I stopped moving from his grip, my hands traced his shoulders to the back of his neck, my fingers ran through his hair tugging him closer, I kissed him back, soon we both were out of breath and I pulled away, he kissed on my jaw and rested his head in the crook of my neck.
The car stopped in front of my apartment, we both were quite still in each other's arms, It felt so right being in his arms but it's not, coming back to my senses I pushed him and got down off his lap.
I sat on my seat, tears rolled down my cheeks.
"Why are you crying, Andrea?", he asked lifting my chin and turning towards him.
"Mr. Williams this shouldn't happen between us," I said shoving his hands off me, I couldn't bear it anymore, If we keep on kissing like this I will fall for him, I haven't felt like this before but he is completely affecting me, I don't know what's in his mind, what he's thinking of me? but this can't be happening often.
"Why?", he asked moving closer to me.
"You're my boss and I'm your assistant", I said looking at him.
"so?", he asked gazing into my eyes as though they were answering him.
"So?! It's wrong," I said with a frown.
"No, it's not," he said holding my hands.
"Leave me," I shouted, wriggling his hands off me, I got down the car and slammed the door.
I ran to my apartment with tears in my eyes.
