"mmmhhh, you have a way of doing things to me that I can't seem to control…" a deep yet very soothing voice cuts through the silence, replying to the voice, she said "why don't you show me", with a smirk in her eyes. With a grip, he brings her closer to him and inching closer to her ear, with all seriousness he said "how dare you speak to me in that tone, you should be punished….." cutting him off, she retorted "why don't you try punishing me, boss" with a sultry and seductive tone…..
"Trrrrkkkkktrrrkkkk" the alarm clock rang continuously, waking Isabel up. A petite brown haired lady, gets up lazily from the bed,"urrghhh, what time is it, and exactly what was that, why in God's name would I dream about my boss in such way" she whispered under her breathe, slowly checking the time she screamed, panicking and rushing out of bed, "oh no no no, I am going to be late, and on the day of my interview at that". Minutes late, she is out of the bathroom and struggling to get dressed as well as ensuring everything is packed.
At exactly 8, she arrives in front of a massive building, "soon enough, I would be working for Adrian Akeem, wish me luck" she says to her best friend, Laila, while heading straight for the entrance and Laila waving at her and screaming after her "break a leg…" while driving off.
Isabel heads straight to the receptionist, requesting to see Mr Adrian, the receptionist asked while scanning her from head to toe "do you have an appointment?" "Yes I do, I'm here for the interview", Isabel replied. The receptionist directed her to the top floor, "take the elevator on your right, head to the last floor the office on your right, that's is his office, you can't miss it", "thank you" Isabel replied.
Arriving at the office, she knocked, and a deep voice was heard from behind the door asking her to come in. She adjusted her clothing, while trying to maintain her composure, she enters the office, a big beautiful office, with a delightful view of the entire city, awards lined up on a shelf, a well-organized and unique setting, while observing her surroundings, her eyes eventually settled on the Mr Adrian Akeem, a tall, dark, broad shouldered and if not the most handsome man in the city, she could swear that she almost saw the outlining of his muscle through his clothes, she whispered under her breathe, "little wonder, he is the most eligible bachelor in the whole city".
"Miss Isabel Rodriguez, right?" his deep voice disrupting her thoughts, "y-yes ss-sir" she stuttered, "do you by chance, stutter? Because I don't hire people who don't seem capable enough" he said. She replied almost immediately "no I don't, but even if I do, my disability won't affect my working capacity", he looked at her amused, a smirk dancing on his lips, as no one has had the courage to speak back to him, he replied "no it won't, but it would affect your efficiency in working, or have you forgotten the job you applied for?" she replied sharply "no I have not, and regardless I doubt it would affect my work".
He asked her "what made you apply for this job? Because on your resume it says you are a business analyst, and if I might add, you have an impressive resume" with a smile that could confuse one's mind. She wasn't sure if he was flirting with her or just being nice, but she replied anyways "I was born in an orphanage home, and you could say, I was trained by the women at the orphanage home, long story short, I love being around kids, I see it as an escape route from reality, so you don't need to worry, your kids are in safe hands", "I'm not worried, instead I'm worried about you" he smirked. She was so unsure of what that meant and before she could gather her thoughts, he asked "shall we?" "Ugh, where are we going?" she asked, "To your place of work, you didn't think you would be working at the office, did you?" he said, "uhm, no we can go sir" she replied.
Getting to the ground floor, she could see the fear and how hasty the employees where, the respect he commanded. Just right in front, a limo packed, and an elderly looking man, opened the door while greeting Mr Adrian, "Get in", he said to her, she hurriedly entered the limo, with Adrian right behind her "Thank you, Mr Donald", Adrian said to the elderly man. The limo, enters through a big massive gate coming to halt, in front of what seemed like a palace, with two little boys rushing out and screaming "aattttaaacckkk…", as soon as Isabel came out of the limo, the boys headed straight at her, wittingly she picked up a stick, and playfully replied "En garde", surprising the kids, "oh no, John it seems, she is ready for combat", James said to his twin brother, "retreat, retreat" screamed John at his brother. Isabel then picks up the twins, tickling them until they all collapsed, laughing on the floor. "James, John, stand up and behave exactly how you have been taught to behave", Adrian said with a stern voice, the children slowly but grudgingly stood up, "you never have time for us, all you do is get nannies and tell us what to do and not do" replied James snarly, while bolting away. "James get back here, this instant" barked Adrian, stopping Adrian in his tracks, Isabel offered to go after him.
"Where is that little boy of mine, oh where could he have gone to?" Isabel said while looking for James, on seeing him, she felt sorry for him, as he was sitted by the pool, sulking. She headed to his direction, sitting right beside him, "you do know your dad means well, right?" she said, "he just doesn't know how to show it, the way he should, but I know he loves you both so much", "I have an idea, why don't we teach him how to love you, how you want him to", she said looking at the liitle boy, he agreed and then hugged her, whispering "I like you more than all the other nannies" "awwnn, thank you, so why don't we go in and you and your brother will get ready for bed, is that ok?" she asked, and he nodded. They both entered inside, and Adrian was shocked that she was able to persuade James, turning to John she said "why don't you join your brother and get ready for bed as well", John seeing how obedient is brother had become, quietly obeyed as well.
"I have never seen my boys listen to another person except their mother, you must be really special", said Adrian, "so where is their mom?" asked Isabel, "she is dead, she died three years ago" said Adrian with a sudden sadness in his voice, "I'm sure she was wonderful", Isabel said. "do you care to drink with me?" asked Adrian "sure", she replied. Isabel follows Adrian to the wine cellar, "wow, you have so many exotic wines, no wonder, I heard you make you the best wine in the city", she said smiling, "Well yes and no, I make the best wine in the country, not the city" said Adrian. "I see you can't help but show that you are in charge right, you want all the attention to yourself", she said, "well lately, I just want the attention of one woman, but she seems not to be looking in my direction", he said with that same smirk he had earlier, Isabel wasn't sure if he was flirting, and as if to prove her suspicions, he came closer to her, squaring her into a corner, she looked up at him, "you seem to be drunk", she said "oh no, I'm not, I am very much awake, and I know what I want, your eyes tell a story, and your lips seems to have a lot to say, Isabel you are one lady, I try to avoid" he said while looking away, "why?" she asked, but before he could answer, there was a commotion heard upstairs.
They left the cellar, to know, what the commotion is about, a tall, slender blonde haired lady, with beautiful figure and well-proportioned face sat in the living room, immediately she saw Adrian, she stood up, giving him a kiss on the lips, "oh darling, I have missed you, did you miss me?" she asked. Looking in Isabel's direction, "oh, you must be the new maid" she said with disdain written all over, before Isabel could reply, "I am Adrian's fiancée", she said leaving Isabel too stunned to speak.
