If only he loved me too

Chapter 25: twenty five

He leaned down to kiss me again but there was a knock on the door that earned a groan of annoyance

from him and a giggle from me. He pecked my lips for the last time and pulled away winking playfully,

but it's his eyes that scared me they held a promise in their eyes, a promise that this wasn't over, there

was more from where it came, a lot more.

As he walked to sit in his seat I jumped down from the table and straighten my messy clothes, I

straighten my shirt and adjust my bra without much problem, I ruffle my hair trying to make it look much

more presentable maybe not to try and give me away like I was shagging the boss, oh my God! I'm that

girl, aren't I? The one that does the boss to save my job, urgh. It's just the first day he was back and it's

already messed up.

"Come in," he said in a powerful voice that did things to me, I redden shyly when he keeps looking at

me with the same look like he wants to forget the outsider and continue devouring me and not stopping

anytime soon. I break eye contact with him and clear my throat trying to regain my consciousness. Bad

Erika, bad, bad, very bad.

The same woman from before entered into the office, she looked annoyed and disgusted when she

glared at my messy appearance, 'I take my words back bitch, you can't have him, he is mine ' I glare at

her but the weight of my thought brought a sudden light to myself, did I just claim Massimo like some

object, I need to get away from him, he is doing stuff with my head and I don't like it.

"I'll go get my things then, " I announced and was about to leave but his words stopped me.

"No, You're not packing your things," he notified me before looking at the intruder for an explanation

"Why not ?" I asked "all of my people are gone, I have no reason to stay back. " I answered back with

the attitude that I didn't know I possessed

"Because you are not fired, Ms. Black," he said dismissively, I raised my eyebrow in a challenge

"I want my team back if I'm staying, if not then goodbye, Mr. Torricelli, " I nod my head at both of them

and leave with powerful strides

I greet people on my way to the fourth floor to my office and opened my office door but the sight of

some guy settling down and moving things startling me in my spot.

"hmm... excuse me what do you think you're doing?" I asked him walking to stand across him stopping

him from whatever that he was doing in MY office.

"oh, you must be Ms. Black, I'm Harry Stewart nice to meet you," he came forward and held out his

hand for me to shake, I, on the other hand, stood starstruck at what the hell was going on. And who the

hell is this ginger looking guy?. he pulled his hand away embarrassed with my rude behavior "one

moment please," he lifts his index finger, he walked around my table and pulled out an access card

handing it to me, I raised an eyebrow in question may be getting blue balls was finally taking it's a toll

on me.

"I was asked to deliver this to you," he smiles nervously as he offers me the access card

I look at him suspiciously but take the card none the less. My name was written on the card as well as

a bar code. "What is this?" I ask Harry, he scratches the back of his neck and answer Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

"You are supposed to move in on the 14th, floor. Boss's order, " he says not meeting my eyes, he

continued moving his stuff around the office as he owned it.

I spare the poor man as he was already shaking in his boots and decided to do what he said. I walked

out of my old room without any of my stuff because there wasn't any left anyways and pressed the 14th

floor on the elevator, I waited to go from the 5th to 14th floor, there were a lot of new faces in the office

building, some gave me polite smiles as they board the elevator, but all of them moved out before any

on them reach the fourteenth floor. I dismissed the thought because it was not usual for employees to

contact the main office all the time so the above floors were usually empty.

When I walked out of the door, there were only two-doors on this floor which had me scowling I walk to

the first door but it was a conference room then I walked to the second door there was an access card

reader. I swiped my card and opened the door.

It is a very fancy well-furnished office there were walls made completely out of glass and the table was

too. There are a very fluffy couch and a very nice boss chair. What caught my attention was the

nameplate on the table

"Vice President, " I read out loud not believing my eyes, I kept blinking making sure I was seeing right. I

repeated the words over and over again not believing my eyes. My name with an extension of a vice

president., this is like a dream come true.

"Erika Black, Vice President, " I hadn't noticed Massimo walking in. I turned to face him, he was leaning

on the doorway looking all smug and happy "has a nice ring to it, doesn't it?" He said walking closer to

me, I stare at him with disbelief.

I stammered" I- I don't know what to say" I admitted not completely over this shocking revelation

He chuckled standing in front of me, he held my shoulders and pulled me closer, he kissed my

forehead gently like he understood my feelings, he hugged me gently pulling my still body closer to his

warm one, reassuring me that this was not a dream and even if it was, it wasn't so bad after all.

With that thought in mind, I smile and hug him back accepting the facts and loving every moment of it. I

guess I was that girl that shagged her boss for a better job. I smile at my silly self and enjoy the

moment.
