1232 Words
Ivy… Ivy…  WAKE UP”  “ Ugh why …?” I whine as I question Arias antics. “Your interview is in an hour !” She subtly giggles “WHAT !!” Shouting scrambling out of bed I look at my clock astonished by the time.  “Why didn’t my alarm go off ?” I frustratingly question Aria however she just stands there bursting into laughter. She immediately stops when I give her the death stare but she’s still trying to catch her breath from laughing a little too hard. “You slept through it” she answers in a more serious tone.  I quickly dismiss her by thanking her and head to my shower to wash. I open my wardrobe and pull a black, fairly short, pencil skirt and a white shirt from the hangers. Frantically getting my clothes on I also put some opaque tights on since it's bloody freezing outside, you can’t expect anything more when it's winter in England. Sitting down at my dresser I brush my Long silky black hair and tie it up in a butterfly clip. I put on some mascara making my green eyes stand out and some subtle red lipstick making my lips look plump and red contrasting with my light beige coloured skin. I chuck on some black pointed heels and head downstairs and grab a croissant from the kitchen table as well as my black blazer from the cupboard which accentuates my curves perfectly. I grab my car keys and hop in my Honda and head off to my interview.  Parking the car I walk into the big modern building and head towards the reception. The lady working there has blonde wavy short hair and is wearing a shirt that reveals way too much of her cleavage and the shortest pencil skirt ever. She doesn’t seem to notice me. “Mmhmm” I ‘cough’, she lifts her head up and gives the bitchiest stare before saying “How can I help you Today ?” her nasal voice is so f*****g annoying however I just block her out  “ I'm here for an interview with Mr. Blackwood in hopes to become his personal secretary” I say with confidence and hope. However she just says “Good Luck, he only keeps a secretary for a week before firing them”. I swallowed a gulp in my throat I didn't know was there and walk to a room waiting to go in for my interview.   A lady dressed in similar clothes as the receptionists comes from around the corner, all the ladies who work here seem all a bit too similar so maybe blackwood makes them dress like that. “ Ivy bell, Mr Blackwood is ready for you now” she says. Nerves crawl all over my skin when the realisation hits me that I'm going to be interviewed by one of the most powerful, young businessmen in England. On the way to his office I check my appearance and adjust my top which shows a bit of cleavage. The Lady knocks on the door and a low deep sexy voice tells me to come in. Opening the door I enter his office and my eyes land straight on him making my heart skip a beat. He has a sharp jawline and hazel eyes and dark fluffy hair which sits perfectly on his head. He has pink kissable lips and is wearing a black suit which is tight around his tense muscles. He leans back on his chair giving me a full view of his muscular lean body as he undresses me with his eyes which turned from a golden hazel colour to black. Quickly I snap out of my gaze and walk towards him. “ Hello Mr Blackwood, Im Ivy” I say as I offer him my hand leaning over the desk he takes it shaking it gently and sparks run all the way through me making body shiver. I feel like jelly under his possessive stare, I notice that he's staring at my cleavage which makes me flush in embarrassment I swiftly take my hand away from him. His eyes turn even darker and there full of anger, possession and lust. I sit down on the other side on the desk and waiting for him to start. “ Hello Ivy” he rumbles in a sexy tone. “I’ve seen your application and your here for the job as my personal secretary, I gather”  “Yes” I squeak intimidated by this handsome man who has crafted my God himself. He grins showing his pearly white teeth obviously amused by the effect he has on me. He looks up and meets my eyes sensing the intimidation however all I see in his eyes is lust. “ Well Ivy, since not many people apply for this job and your application states you took a degree in business. I see no problem In hiring you” “Thank yo -” “Not so quickly” he says as he stares directly into my green eyes making my insides melt.  “I need you to come to a business meeting. I need to discuss a few things with my fellow business partners and i like you to write some things down for me ” he commands as he smirks at me, I blush and stare back at him. He gets up off his chair and all 6ft 3  of him walks over to me. He crouches down and put his face close to mine. “Your coming?” He questions as his hot breath fans the side of my neck, taking advantage of my vulnerability around him. I quietly moan subconsciously and blush due to the close proximity. “Thats Fine Mr. Blackwood what time is it and where?” I ask professionally trying to dismiss the emotions that are clearly showing . “ Call me Ash princess” he says as he tucks a piece of my falling hair behind my hair. “ 7:30pm tonight at a restaurant in town.” “ Okay ... Ash” I reply and feel suddenly aroused by his dominating stance. I close my legs tight as he rests his arm on the back of the chair. I go to mush and I inhale his godly woody floral scent. His muscles are straining against his suit and his facial expression is tense as if he’s trying to control his extremely lustful emotions. He then continues “You’ll start work here on Monday morning”  as he walks around his desk and flips through some files. “You can leave now” he commands in a provocative tone showing he’s clearly on edge.  I leave the room, slowly coming back to reality and head home. Im greeted with a happy Aria who is jumping up and down with excitement as she receives the news about me getting the job. Not telling her about the encounter with the handsome man that screamed danger and lust who i now currently work for. I giggle in my head knowing if I did i would be here for hours talking about him instead of organising his business meetings like I’m supposed to.
