I took care of my needs after they left. Though it didn’t feel as good as their touch, it was enough to keep me from storming out of my office to look for them, to demand they conclude what they started. Knowing who they were, I doubt they would have done that.
Fuming, I tidied up my office and got dressed, trying to look as presentable as I could without letting anyone who sees me know my lovers almost fucked me.
Lovers.
A smile graced my lower lips as I thought back to what happened minutes ago. I couldn’t get rid of those words from Fred. Though they didn’t profess their love to me like I would have loved, they gave me something else.
Hope.
I knew it would only take some time and getting to know them – this time as lovers and not a means to an end – to get them to fall for me.
Smiling, I checked my appearance with the small mirror I kept in my drawer. It was a gift from Chris, and I couldn’t help but love her more at the moment.
With the mirror, I could apply my lip gloss and make my hair back into a presentable bun before leaving the office.
I just got a call from the director that the bosses were about to leave, and it was time for a farewell remark. As the best worker, I had to be out there.
My legs shook as I strode forward. It felt like my limbs were about to turn to jelly the more I walked. It could be because of what happened in the office, or the thoughts of seeing my sexy as hell lovers. I couldn’t tell why I was feeling nervous. Not the bad kind, though.
At least, it wasn’t the same as the one I felt their morning when we were about to meet the bosses. This time, it was an exciting kind of nervousness.
“Girl!” Chris met me halfway, looking winded. “God, I thought I would die minutes ago!” She gushed, glancing around to be certain there was no one around to hear our conversation.
“Why? What happened?” I frowned, wondering what caused my always-unflappable friend to look so not composed.
“The bosses! Oh, my freaking panties. I felt like I would melt from the ferocity of their gazes. Girl, how did you interview them without fucking any one of the two? Or both?!”
“Shut up!” I hissed, looking around as my cheeks turned blood-red in embarrassment. “How can you say such shameless things!” I gritted my teeth.
“Come on.” Rolling her eyes, she linked our arms. “I was just joking about that. I know I said something about fucking them, but I take that back. After the interview they gave me, I doubt I would ever wish to be caught near their bed. No freaking way!”
I chuckled at that. It was difficult not to, with how serious she looked.
“Why? Didn’t you say they were drop
dead hot?”
“Not anymore.” She shivered, gulping as her gaze darted around. “Who would have guessed the men I thought sexy as fuck would be such intense devils?” She looked around once more before leaning down to whisper, “I bet they are violent in bed.”
“Haven’t you said those words before?” I lifted an eyebrow.
“Not the playful kind of rough, but the intense one that would leave a woman almost crippled! Fucking hell, they are not my type.” Shivering, she led me towards the meeting room.
I bit back a smile as I followed her, knowing she wasn’t wrong about that. If only she knew just how nasty they were. They were mine, though. There was no way in hell I would let her know just how good they were in bed.
It turned out we were the last employees to reach the place. Fred and Blue were already standing, waiting for us.
The moment we entered, Imelda Snickered. “Took you long, bitch.”
I glared at her but didn’t respond as I walked to my position and stood, just as the director motioned for me to conclude things with them.
Clearing my throat, I stepped forward, smiling when their intense gazes followed my steps. Blue’s lips lifted in a smirk when I missed a step, and I shot a dark glare at him as I righted my stance.
They were lucky we were with others. Otherwise, I would have snapped their heads off for laughing at me.
I cleared my throat before I started. It felt so easy speaking now than it was in the morning. Though I didn’t stumble on my words then, I was quite confident as I said it now, knowing they were watching me, not with hatred or disgust but admiration.
“What a decent worker you have here, Mr Henry,” Fred noted, looking at the director, whose smiles were more pronounced than ever.
“Thank you, bosses.” He smiled at that. “You also helped in training her. I can’t take all the credit.”
“That’s right.” Blue nodded, still looking at me. “It was nice meeting you again, Miss Bella. It was a pity you didn’t come,” he teased.
I had to bite the inside of my mouth as I muttered, “Have a safe trip home.”
“Yeah, we will.” Blue’s gaze started from my head down to my toes before it went up.
Shivering at the intensity of his gaze, I stepped back to join the others just as the director snapped his fingers.
“Thank you for visiting,” we all spoke at once before bowing. “We hope you enjoyed your time with us?”
This was something we practised yesterday. At the snap of the director’s fingers, we were expected to bow while saying those words. It was a miracle we all remembered to say it at once despite how nervous some of us looked.
“It was nice getting to know you all.” Fred smiled, his gaze landing on me as he whispered, “It was a wonderful time. We hope to come the next time.”
While the others wondered what he meant, I blushed, knowing what his words were insinuating.
Fuck him!
I gritted my teeth, and could only stare.
The moment the director stepped out with the bosses, there was a collective sigh of relief from some of my colleagues. Most of them were sweating, with their expressions akin to the one on Chris’s face when she met me earlier. I was the only one who didn’t seem relieved to see them go.
“Do you think the director would give my post back to me seeing I was the one the bosses chose to give them a tour?” Imelda asked the woman next to her, her whisper loud enough for everyone to hear.
Smirking, I whispered, “In your fucking dreams.” Before I left for my office, eager to get my work done, so I could meet with my lovers, as they requested.
