"I have a younger brother that I am responsible for. He will come with me if I move because I am all he has left. My best friend lives with us too. She will be the one that babysits him for me when I am at work. I don't know if other people are allowed to move into the homes that the company provides," I said
"You are allowed to bring family to the home, and your friend will also be able to come. A daycare is nearby just in case you would like to look into it. Do you accept my offer, Miss. Davis,"
"Yes,"
Camela's POV
"Great! "Let's go," Mr. Mitchell said.
"Where are we going?" I asked, confused.
"I want to show you your new house, and you need to get a car," he explained.
I got to my feet and followed him out of his office. A woman with blond hair approached him, smiling. She dressed in a short dress that made her look like she was going to a club rather than work. She yanked his tie and leaned her body on his. I could feel myself becoming annoyed by how close she was to him. I instantly didn't like her. I didn't understand why I was feeling like that because I had no right to. He was my boss, not my boyfriend.
"Hi, sir. I need to talk to you about something in your office," she said, licking her lips seductively.
"He pushed her off of him, causing her to almost fall on the floor. I couldn't hold back my smile, happy that he rejected her advances toward him.
"I have something that I need to do. If you have anything you need to discuss, please get in touch with your manager," Blake said.
She looked at me with an evil expression on her face. Then, Mr. Mitchell surprised me by wrapping his hand around my waist and pulling my body close to his. I knew I should have felt uncomfortable, but I didn't. Instead, I felt my body relax into his.
"Come on, Miss Davis," Blake said, leading me to the elevator.
We walked to an elevator that I knew was his personal elevator. He pressed the button with the G on it, and we ended up in the parking garage. He went right to a car that was in front of the elevator. It was a new black BMW. He opened the passenger side door for me, and I got in.
"Thank you," I said, and he smiled at me before going to the driver's side. I put on my seatbelt, and he drove out of the parking garage and onto the road. He drove for about twenty minutes and then turned into a housing addition that I knew was too expensive. Finally, he parked in a two-story house's driveway and exited the car.
He came over to my side and opened my door.
"Let's go see your new home," he said.
"You can't be serious," I replied, looking at him, surprised. This place was way too expensive."
"I am serious. Come on," he said, placing his hand out for me to take.
I took his hand and let him help me out of the car.
I couldn't help the gasp that escaped my lips when he opened the door to the house. I saw a big family room when we first entered. It had a big kitchen, a dining room, a bathroom, and a laundry room. Every room was fully furnished.
There was a door leading to the backyard. I saw a wooden deck with a barbeque grill when I opened it. There was a big fenced-in backyard.
"Let's go look upstairs," Blake said and led me upstairs, taking my hand.
When we walked upstairs, there was a long hallway.
"These two rooms are the smaller bedrooms," Blake said, and we looked at them.
They looked big to me compared to my room at my house," I thought.
"Let me show you the master bedroom," He said with a smile.
When we walked inside, the room was huge. It had a king-sized bed, a balcony, a walk-in closet, and a bathroom. The bathroom had a jacuzzi tub and shower. I looked over at him to see him already looking at me.
"So, what do you think?" He asked.
"It is nice. Too nice, Mr. Mitchell. I can't afford this," I said.
"It comes with your job. No payment required," he said
"Come, we have more to do," he said, and we returned to his car.
He opened the passenger door for me, and I got in the car. He went to the driver's side and started the car.
"Where are we going?" I asked.
"I told you we needed to pick up your new car at the car lot,"he said and started driving towards my new car.
Camela's POV"This is way too much, Mr. Mitchell," I said, pushing the cartWhile we were on our way to the car lot, Mr. Mitchell decided to stop at Target. Saying that, I needed some stuff for the new house."No, it's not. You and Liam need new things for your new home," He said"Don't you think it is inappropriate for you to be shopping with me?" I asked"No, I don't see how that is inappropriate," He said"Mr. Mitchell," I started but was cut off"There is nothing wrong with me taking you to the store and helping you pick out a few items for your new home. After this, we still have to pick out your car," He said"But you are my boss," He said"Exactly, I am the boss, and what I say goes. So don't worry about anyone else. They won't say anything to disrespect you, or they will have to deal with me," he said. I could tell that he was serious."And the name is Blake,""Excuse me,""My name is Blake. Enough of that, Mr. Mitchell nonsense. You don't ever have to call me that," He saidI
Camela's POV"What would you like to eat, Liam," Blake askedHe had taken us to the fair since it was that time of the year."I'm not hungry. I want to play," Liam said, causing me to smile"Okay, let us go play them. We will be back, ladies," Blake said as he took him over to one of the kiddie rides"You are so lucky," Tiara said"What are you talking about?" I asked "You know what I am talking about, Cami. That hot CEO billionaire has the hots for you," She said"No, he doesn't. He is my boss and is friendly,""You and I both know that is a bunch of bullshit. I think he likes you more than likes you," She said."He hardly knows me. How can he more than like me?" I asked"I don't know, but I am telling you that he does," She said We sat for a while until Blake returned to our table with Liam. He had a big bag of blue cotton candy. "Liam, you are going to be sticky now. Let me see," I said and took the bag away from him."I think your sister is right, little man. You need to eat so
Camela's POV"How do I look?" I asked Tiara as I made my way into the kitchen."Better than the outfit you had on yesterday. I still think you can lose a few inches of your skirt. You do have a CEO boyfriend," She said with a smirk on her face."He is not my boyfriend. He is my boss," I said"For now," she replied"I have to go to work. See you later," I said and kissed Liam on his cheek."Bye, Liam," I said and headed outside. When I got outside, I was surprised to see a Limo parked in my driveway. Two men that looked like security guards were standing outside of the Limo. The driver stepped out of the driver's seat when I walked out. I remembered him from one of the men that worked for Blake."Ms. Davis, Mr. Mitchell sent me to pick you up for work," He said "That is unnecessary. I can drive myself to work," I said"I am sorry, mam, bosses orders," He saidI picked up my phone and called Blake. He had saved his number on my phone earlier when we were at Target shopping yesterday.
Blake's POV"Have a seat," I told Camela as we arrived at my office.She seemed to hesitate but finally sat on the chair across from me. I noticed that she wouldn't look at me. Instead, she kept looking everywhere but in my direction. I put my hand on hers and could feel that warm feeling that I only think from her touch."I am sorry about what happened out there. I promise it won't happen again," I said, and she looked at me."You have nothing to apologize to me for, Mr. Mitchell. I just work for you," She said"That is not true, and you know it," I said"What do you mean?" She asked "There is something that I need to tell you. It may sound crazy, but I promise it is all true," I said, looking deep into her eye."I'm listening," She said, staring back at me."Well, there is a myth in my family. Everyone in my family will receive a soulmate one day," I said, and she looked at me, confused."Okay, a myth about soulmates. What does that mean that you all find your true love or somethin
Camela's POV"Is there anything else you need me to do, Mr. Mitchell?" I asked I was sitting at my desk bored for almost two hours. Whenever I asked if he needed anything, he would tell me no."No, everything is fine at the moment, and my name is Blake to you," He said "I am sure there is something I can do," I said"No, I am almost done here. In a minute, we can get some lunch. Are you hungry?" He askedI was hungry but didn't want to complain. I had hardly done any work besides setting some appointments. I felt like I wasn't doing my job right."I'm not hungry," I said, and he looked over at me."You are lying. I know you are hungry," He said and then stood out of his chair and grabbed his suit jacket."Come on. It's time for lunch," He said and held his hand out for me to hold.I hesitated for a minute but finally placed my hand in his, feeling tingles all over my hand where he touched. We walked to his private elevator and got in. Once we were on the ground floor, everyone watch
Camela's POV "Did you like the food, sir," The waitress asked She has been coming to our table nonstop the whole time we have been here to flirt with Blake. All I wanted to do was beat the shit out of her. She was acting like I wasn't even there. "Yes, the food was good. We will take the check now," Blake said "I am so happy you liked it. I hope you will come back soon," She said and placed her hand on his shoulder. "He said he wants the check," I growled. She looked over at me for the first time. "Sure, I will get that for you," She said and walked away. My hands were bald in fists. It was taking a lot for me not to cuss her out. I looked over at Blake, who had a smile on his face. "What?" I asked "I guess you do feel it," He said "Feel what?" I asked "Our bond, deep down, you know that we are meant to be," He said, and I rolled my eyes. "How am I going to believe that when everywhere we go, someone is flirting with you," I said. He placed his hand in mine and I could fee
Camela's POV "What do you mean he told you that you two are soulmates?" Tiara asked "Exactly what I said. He said that we are soulmates and that everyone in his family has a soulmate," I replied After my conversation with Blake and our visit to the house that he said was ours, I told him I needed to think about everything and asked him to take me home. I felt overwhelmed after he asked me to move in with him. I didn't know him, and even though I felt a connection with him. I still had responsibilities. The most important one being my brother. I was all he had, and even though Blake said he wanted to take care of him, too, I still didn't know if it was a good idea to move in with him. "What did you say?" She asked "That I needed time to think," I told her "Girl, if it were me, I would have hurried up and moved in with him," She said "You don't have a three-year-old to take care of. I can't just pack my bags and move in with him. I don't know him," I said "I guess you are right,
Camela's POV"You look sexy, girl. I am jealous," Tiara said"Thanks, T," I replied"Where is he taking you anyway?" Tiara asked as I sat by Liam, putting on his shoesWe were waiting for Blake to pick us up. He had texted and said that he was ten minutes away."Blake said we are eating at his parent house," I replied"Are you nervous?""A little. Blakes's parents are sophisticated and rich. I am just an ordinary girl," I said honestly."You have nothing to be worried about, Cami. You are a great person, and they should like you for you," Tiara saidThere was a knock at the door, and I couldn't help but become nervous. "I will get the door. Just calm down and stop over, thinking okay," She said"I will try," I replied, and she went to answer the door."Hey, Blake, come on in," Tiara said, and she moved out the way for him to come inside.I couldn't help but stare at him as he walked into the family room; he wore a pair of black dress pants and a white button-up shirt. I knew he was b
