Running to the Ladies washroom, Liza tried to calm her beating heart. She honestly couldn’t believe she just kissed her boss.
Mike! Mike of all people.
Who would have thought?
Who would have thought the man was a walking dynamite waiting to explode?
Touching her sensitive lips, she stared into space as she thought of their kiss again and again.
But seeing that even the memory was enough to make her weak below the knees, she quickly snapped out of it.
Wetting her face with water to calm her nerves, she wiped her face with a toilet napkin before slowly making her way to her desk.
But Liza soon found out that getting rid of the memory wasn’t as easy as she thought and she gave a small groan when she found herself making a mistake for the fifth time in five
A word from my readers would really go a long way. thank you!
It was after five in the evening and Liza should have been out of the office twenty minutes ago but for the printing she had to finish and drop on Stella's desk for tomorrow’s meeting. But thanks to God, she’s finally done and can be out of the office in a minute. But just as she was grabbing her purse to make a dash for the door, the door to the boss’s office opened and in strolled Mike with his usual leisure walk. “Done for the day?” He asked. “Hmm, yes sir.” She answered. “Oh good. I was just leaving also. Mind if I walk you to your car?” He asked. “My car?” She repeated foolishly. “Yes, since my car is parked beside it.” “Oh, please, go ahead. I will be fine to walk to the car park alone”. She said with a fake smile. “I know you would be
Wondering what just happened, Liza kept staring at the door in which Mike just went through.Obviously, he was in a bad mood, she thought.Going back to her desk, she remembered the intense look on his face while he was staring her down and how she had almost allowed him to kiss her, again.But now, not in his office, but the office lobby where anybody could see them. Good grief!What’s Mike thinking of?She honestly doesn’t understand the man again.Maybe it’s best she resigns from the office.For her peace of mind!But, with her plans of getting married, where is she going to get another job soon?She knew she was good and while Mike and Stella would not refuse her a recommendation letter, she couldn’t guarante
Shocked, Liza raised her hand to her lips in fear, expecting retaliation.But, after staring at her in astonishment, Mike only gave a laugh while rubbing his left cheek that’s imprinted with red marks already.“Hmm, beneath that cool exterior, lurks a fire brand. Interesting! Mind you, you’re the first woman to raise her hand at me. And Next time, I might not be so tolerant. I only forgave you now because I might have provoked it. In future, if you want to show me your temper, make it in the bedroom. Okay?” He told her.“Beast.” She cried angrily as she made an attempt to put her clothes in order.“A beast that just gave you the best orgasm of your life with just his mouth and finger. Remember that when you’re with your so-called Fiancé.” He reminded her softly.“I hat
Deciding it’s best not to scare her again, Mike coughed and gave her a small smile of assurance.“Hmmm, can I get a cup of coffee? I didn’t get my usual dose of coffee before leaving the office.” He explained softly.Shocked by this request, Liza nodded slowly. “Of...of course. Give me some minutes.” She told him while walking to the kitchen.Releasing his breath in a whoosh, Mike gave himself thumbs up on how that went well. Now, all he has to do is let her know she is being childish and to resume back to work tomorrow. Voila, she will see sense and all will be well with his world. That should be easy to do. Right?Coming back to the room with the coffee on a saucer, she gave him the cup of coffee, prepared, exactly the way he loved it. Smiling, Mike took a sip appreciatively before dropping the cup.Then before
Driving back to the office, Mike reflected on what just happened at Liza’s place. He honestly couldn’t believe he almost had his way with her, in her living room, and on the carpet of all things. He would like to think he would have put a stop to things before it went further, but he honestly couldn’t deceive himself. He knew he was beyond redemption immediately he put his mouth on Liza’s honey pot to taste. How she tasted like Heaven and chocolate, he never wanted to stop. Stop he did! Because for a reason, she decided to freeze him off. And no matter how much he wanted to pretend, Mike just couldn’t pretend it didn’t hurt. If he should allow himself to ponder on what he’s feeling, then he would say it’s something close to betrayal and sadness. The sadness he could understand. Who would not be sad after tasting heaven and getting turned down? Of course he was sad.
“Oh no, not again Stella. I’m not giving you a raise and that's final.” Mike told her in laughter as Stella gave a mock woebegone expression. “Hmm, no raise! Okay Mike, I will continue being your slave. But one day, the competition might come for me and then?” She told him slyly and Mike laughed once again. That’s another thing, apart from being his competent secretary, Stella has a good dose of humour and she was one of the few he could count on. Having worked with him for several years, Mike did trust her judgments and she had never been wrong whenever he asked her opinion on a sensitive matter, like he was doing now. “So tell me dear Mike, what is that thing you wish to ask me?” She said. “Well, having gotten a rejection from Liza, I’m confused at whom to interview for the position.” “Well, we can start by checking for your expectatio
Having decided it’s best to forget the incident that took place at her flat and move on, Liza realised it would be for her own good to resume work the following day. She knew for a fact Mike didn’t make empty threats, and she wasn’t ready for another confrontation should he decide to come back for another visit. So, here she is, walking into her office the next day with trepidation and a prayer not to barge into Mike or any of the staff members. She really doesn’t want to answer any curious questions about her supposed health. But of course, luck wasn’t on her side as the first person she saw upon entering her office was Stella. Her kind but inquisitive boss. “Oh, there you are dear. How are you feeling now? I wasn’t expecting to see you so soon after the call we received yesterday.” She told her. “Good morning Stella! Thank you fo
Sitting at his desk, Mike steepled his fingers together on the table while he awaited Liza’s response to his command. Having spent the whole day interviewing different people for the position of his PA, he was beyond irritated to find none of them competent for the position. They were all nice hardworking men, but only in their fields. Most of them didn’t have an idea of what it meant to be a personal assistant to the MD. The necessary sauce needed to discuss a deal with a prospective client, and most of all, the charisma of trust and capability was just not there. They all lacked that thing his former PA possessed. That special thing Liza has in abundance. Charisma! And there came his problem. He knew part of the reason he was finding it hard to get a replacement was because his heart was already made up with Liza. She’
