A few days had passed since Lissa did a total make-over. However, since she's on a tight budget and money is kind of tight for her many days of absences. The changes wasn't that evident. Well, she bought a collection of Kylie Jenner's lipstick, hoping that a different shade of red would make her look a little different.If she can't beat Angel through sheer beauty then maybe she was a chance to get Anthony's attention through body language. If that still wouldn't work, then she'll beat her with sheer sex appeal.She was wearing black fitted dress underneath, her cleavage showing a bit because of the low cut front and a simple white corporate jacket as cover for her smooth and fair arms. Her eyes looked mysterious with her smokey make-up and her lips oozed with sin in her dark red lipstick.Bite Me, by Kylie Jenner. Her favorite shade.During regular days, her male colleagues were already fantasizing about her, looking at her prominent hips and ample bosom that she got from her mother.
Unlike how they usually dine together, the two of them were quietly eating at the diner that they have eaten at before. They left the office in a hurry and drove quietly to the said restaurant. Anthony parked the car just right across the street, and the energy as they left the car was the same as they drove towards the Restaurant.It was quiet and awkward. Almost dead silence."So, what do you want to order?" Anthony finally broke the silence when he asked the question.Lissa simply answered with a soft and uninterested. "Just the usual."And just like that they've ordered the same thing they had last time--- which was almost a month ago and as they ate, they only stole a few glances at each other.Ever since Angel got into the picture, it's like a rift had been placed between them, creating a space in their own blooming friendship.And Lissa can't seem to see why.Since Anthony's office was always closed and everyone is too busy to wonder off someplace else and chit-chat with the two
The girls were all putting on make-up for the event tonight. Wearing tight fitting corsets on their waist and a dark--- almost Gothic styled black attire from head to toe, they were dolled up or rather--- bloody ready for their Dark Fantasy themed Halloween party.Niña was dressed as the Frankenstein's bride while Judy is wearing her favorite costume since she learned to say her name. Wearing nothing else but thin layers of satin. A dubious looking but hot as hell Mummy. And Lissa's costume was rather obvious for the realm of darkness.Vampire. Dracula's bride. As Niña calls it."Hurry up, bishes." Judy reminded her friends who is moving as slow as the zombies from the Walking Dead. "I don't know about you, but I don't want to be late. I want to be first when Mr. Jericho gets into the stage.""Oh, bish... please! The only reason why you're rushing is because you've been crushing for him for so long that he's a part of your wet dream!" Nina teased her with a smirk then winked at Judy.J
Lissa closed her eyes when she felt strong hands wrap around her arms, leaning closer to give her such a warm embrace. It was perfect, and the moment was tender even though the emotion was built by a complete stranger.But then she heard a series of chuckles and a deep familiar voice coming from the man that it's as if she's punched back in the face by reality. That this wasn't a fantasy, but somewhat related to one of her nightmares."You seem to be having fun." Was Anthony's whisper to her, almost teasing. "I saw how you danced and mingled with those men. You seemed to enjoy yourself." He continued, voice dark and laced with amusement. "Are you satisfied now.""Let go of me..." The demand was soft, but she was serious. This was the first time she was seriously frustrated and angry with Anthony since they've met. "If you won't get your hands off me, I'll scream my lungs out, I swear!"Anthony smirked then laughed while shaking his head. Lissa really doesn't make things easy for him, e
He woke up with a different Zen on his body. He feels lighter, better and a bit giddy. He deems it's because of the freshly brewed coffee he had on his way to work, which is why he felt more lively than usual. He isn't the typical morning person kind of guy, yet when he looked at the time ---- signifying it's about time he goes to work, he was seriously looking forward to it.He's done screening and checking all the papers needed to be checked and he's also done signing the things and documents that needed to be signed. He's also done sending the paperworks back to the Accounting and Purchasing department.The documents that needed to be overseen was the only thing he kept at bay. He waited for Lissa to come by --- being the A.D. assistant, she's the one who knows where all the documents are kept.Anthony has no clue where it is hidden, which is one of the reasons why some of the work needed to be done is piled up. There was this awkward situation budding between them. Hopefully, now t
Unlike before, Lissa had this sense of calm as she struts her stuff while walking towards their office. Like she always does, she placed her tumbler filled with instant coffee on her desk and began to open her PC.She wondered what kind of day she'll face ahead. Her mother was still stuck in Mexico, and God knows how long she's going to be staying there. Mainly because the previous land owners where their house was built was so money hungry that the price they've kept on pushing against her parents was a bit too much.If she could just get a hold of the Local Bruja who is a close friend of her Mother, for sure, those Locca's doing business with the de Leon's would be so done. They'll be shitting worms and parasites and their hairs will be filled with lice and nits, that's for sure.Lissa sighed after the thought of her loudmouth mother came to mind, who knew she'd miss the loud noises and never ending lecturing from her Mom.Her day began like any other. With the usual glance at the cl
To be fair, Anthony only said those words because he genuinely felt that Lissa isn't trained enough to act as the Future CEO's secretary. It is not because of anything, really. There were no estranged or unfair emotion on his end.He just wanted to be professional and lay it all out there and give options of what he thinks is best.But from Lissa's reaction, it seemed like he stepped on her toes. She was obviously dismayed that he said she wasn't qualified for the job.Lissa removed Anthony's hand away from her arm. She straightened the cloth that was creased from his hold. "And what do you mean by that, Mr. Lee?" She asked with her brow arched up, as if she was challenging him. "Do you think I'm not good enough for the job?" Was her brave question.Anthony faked a cough, and looked at everyone inside the room who was obviously waiting for his answer. "I'm not saying you're not good enough... what I'm trying to say is you're not trained yet. I simply think you need to think this throug
What Jihanna said yesterday was true. She did indeed receive a contract from Kathrine --- who gave her a mixture of expressions that she can only categorize as envy and confusion. But it didn't bother Lissa once she saw the big fat check that was offered to her once she accepts the position wholeheartedly.That kind of money will give her independence from her mother, and will be finally able to rent her own condominium --- well, if only everything is all sparks and unicorns and butterflies.But life isn't like that. Now, she needs to help her family pay for the land where their house is standing on Mexico, or else they'll lose everything there. The house that his father worked for, and her grandparents will have nowhere to stay at.Lissa thought that maybe destiny stepped in for her to get this job because not only does her family need it, but she's kind of looking forward to this as well. Especially now with some of those extra cash, she can buy the BDSM set that she have always want
