The Seductress

“You have a family Gwen… let him in” She ordered as Gwen laughs quietly and close the door after stepping out. Selene leans back into her seat as the door open seconds later. She watch him step in and a sigh escapes her lips. Why does one has to be this cute. She puts up a smile as he stands, checking her out. Okay he’s got to stop this intense looks, it’s making her hot down there. She run her palm down her hair. She parts her mouth to speak but shut it almost immediately. Damnit Selene don’t tell me you’re lost for words!.

“Good morning Selene” Wayne smirks at her. It’s a good thing he has an effect on her. Selene forces a smile and clears her lung.

“Morning…. Wayne” She voice out. She itches her hair and opens the lid of her laptop. Godammit she shouldn’t be checking him out.. it’s supposed to be the other way round!.

“I was told I’d be resuming work today” Wayne continues as he looked round the plush office. She’s got a taste for nice stuffs. He could remember years ago, he used to have this kind of office or maybe more than this.

“Yeah… you’re right… as my secretary” She drawls on the last word and stops herself from rolling her eyes. She hates to know that he isn’t always drooling at her.

“Have your seat” She tells him and get off the couch. Walking to the cabinet she pours wine into two glasses and walk back to him.

“Here you go” She gives him a glass. Wayne stares at her as she walk round the table and return back to her seat. Nice backside though.

“Shouldn’t you be thanking me” Selene asks as she knot her brows at him. Wayne nods slowly.

“Yeah… I guess I should. in as much as I didn’t want any of this, I don’t have a choice. You paid my mom’s surgery fees and that’s the reason I chose to work for you… I’m gonna pay . back every money you spent on my mom, Selene” Selene bites her lips and stare down her palm in anger. Great… so he agreed to work for her cos she helped him and not willingly?. He’s got nerves and its slowly pissing her out.

“That’s cute of you… showing appreciation for what I’ve done.. I guess the only way you could pay me for what I did is to work diligently… impress me green orbs” She smirks at him and he chuckles.

“You don’t need to tell what to do…. I know how to handle being your secretary” Wayne smirks back. Selene bites down her lips. Truth be told she wasn’t prepared for this. She’s always used to intimidating guys with her gazes, but he seems different. He better keeps up with this attitude because the moment he’s gonna let down his guard, she’d strike… in a way he won’t expect. Selene pushes the swivel backwards she stands. She walks over to an inbuilt cabinet and retrieves a booklet.

“I love being particular Wayne… so here is all you need to know about working for me. Diamond corps is a multi production company and we have lots of schedules, you need to keep me updated on each of them” She tells him before handing him the booklet. Although she was being professional, Wayne admired her sense of responsibility. It was a good thing she kept Mrs grace business growing.

“Roger that Selene” He conceded. Selene scoffs and sits on the swivel.

“Show some respect… you should call me boss not by my name”. Though she loved the way he called her name. She wasn’t planning on being easy on him. Wayne shrugs a shoulder

“As you wish boss” Sarcasm drips from his tone as he smirked at her. she rolls her eyes before buzzing the intercom. Gwen walks in seconds later.

“She’s gonna show you to your office and also brief you on my schedules today… you can go now” Selene voice out, trying to keep the anger out of her voice. Wayne gets off the seat and strides out without a backward glance. She watch him smile at Gwen as they leave the office. Selene bites down her lips, hating the fact that Gwen blushed at that single action. She kicked off her heels and dug her feet into the rug fitting, Asshole!.

Stacey walks into the restaurant and smiles as she sights Zoey and Melissa at a corner of the large restaurant. Her two psychotic best friends.

“Hey bitches” Stacey greets as she gets to them, sitting across them on the booth.

“Hey yourself… where the fuck where you last night?” Zoey, a petite blonde who looks much younger than her age says as she feigns a serious face.

“I had an urgent issue to tend to… what’s your beef?” Stacey rolls her eyes and Melissa chortles, She’s a brunette and has got freckles on her face, the youngest of the trio. Though well above thirty, they act as though they are below twenty five. The three jointly owns a large spa in the heart of the city.

“You’re a freaking nympho Stace!. You just recently arrived and the next thing some cute guy is slamming into you… have some shame girlfriend!” Zoey groans as melissa holds back her laughter.

“That’s so mean of you you know” Stacey blurts out.

“Whatever….. ” She snaps her fingers at the waiter and he approached thier table.

“Pasta and steak” Zoey tells him.

“French rolls cutie” Melissa winks up at him. Stacey chuckles and shakes her head.

“I’m fine…” She tells him and he nods and leaves to get their orders.

“You never mentioned you were attracted to waiters Mel…” Stacey drawls sarcastically.

“Well I’m a lot better than you Stace, chasing after a total hottie who wouldn’t look your way” It was Zoey’s turn to cackle. The waiter returns with their order. Stacey waits for him to leave before scowling at them.

“Fuck you guys… pretty soon Wayne is gonna look my way and hell, I’d do all I can to make you take back what you said” Zoey stabs her fork at the steak as she laughs quietly. A short silence follows as they chew on their food. Stacey mind wanders away, thinking of the lady who’s become overly popular. She knew Mrs grace, had seen her in an auction her company had held months back. Then she’d left Florida for a while and came back with the sad news that Mrs grace is no more and has a successor.

“Zoned out already Stace….” Mel smirks at her across the table and she groans.

“C’mon Stace why can’t you admit it, the dude is making you crazy isn’t it Zoey?”Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Absolutely right girlfriend” She replied within a mouthful and Stacey sighs.

“Let’s trash that for now guys… How much do you know about Selene” Stacey asks as she gulps from her glass of water. They pause and stare at her.

“You mean the fair skinned goddess?” They chorus and Stacey rolls her eyes.

“Yeah… that one” She says and drops the glass of water back on the table. Zoey slides her food away and dabs at her mouth with a napkin.

“Well…. just a little. Selene has got this enthralling smile and damn it Stace, she’s got the perfect hourglass figure… plus she’s the richest bitch here” Zoey tells her and Stacey nods.

“You forgot one thing though… I think all the guys here are fighting to have a nightstand fancy that Stace… sometimes I wish I’m not thirty one” Melissa expounds. Stacey shrugs, knowing she was right. She had seen Selene on her fans page and dammit she’s young and fuckin pretty too.

“Well I can swear on my last penny my darling Wayne isn’t” She purrs as they exchange looks before bursting into laughter. Stacey stares daggers at them.

“You know what… I think lunch break is over… get your damn ass out of the restaurant and let’s heed to work… don’t keep me waiting” She blurts out more in exasperation than anger.

“Huh… who’s gonna pay for this?” Melissa sweeps her palm at the table and Stacey chuckles.

“Ever heard of a credit card… well dearies… you’ve got one… so use it” She pushed back her chair and grin at them before walking out of the restaurant.

“Fuck you bitch” Melissa cusses after her and she chuckles lowly

Selene scrolls through the files she ordered Wayne to record, searching for a single fault to prove Wayne wasn’t capable. She sucks in her breath and run her hand down her hair. Not a single fault, all his day work was done perfectly, more competent than Gwen even. She rolls her eye and slam the laptop shut before striding to the glass walls over looking the city. Unfortunately she’s been angry all day and that was particularly because Wayne had avoided her. She’s got to admit, he’s good at this job. The intercom buzzes and Selene turns to face the door as he walks in.

“It’s past five boss…. and it’s my closing hour” Wayne watches her angry figure. No matter how she tried to conceal it, he knew she’s been furious all day.

“Yeah I know right…” She roll her eyes and walk to the table.

“That’s perfect cos I’m heading home… You’re driving me home” it was more like an order and not a demand. Wayne raises a brow but says nothing. He could drive her home, but that was during working hours. But he’s gonna do anything to keep this job. He nods at her.

“Fine boss… I’d be waiting downstairs” He says and turns to leave.

“Does my presence intimidate you?” Selene asks as he gets to the door. He turns to stare at her as she ambled towards him.

“And why do you think so… Selene?” He looks down at her as she stops right in front of him. He’s staring at her amber couloured eyes and she stares at his green ones. Selene trail her gaze down to his mouth set in a hard line and she shakes her head absently. Good God, could he be any more hot.

“Just asking… Wayne, just asking” She finally says and tear her gaze away from his mouth. She could almost imagine Wayne pulling her to himself and tasting her lips but he smiles at her instead.

“There’s nothing intimidating about you boss… unless you think there is” He rakes his hand at his hair. Selene scoffs and brush past him.

“Good to know” She simply says and walk out of the office in anger. She ignored the many greetings from the few employees and made her way to the elevator. She steps in and Wayne walks in seconds later. The ride down to the last floor was in silence. Wayne walks behind her as she stride out of the company, noticing the stares from the guy workers at the lobby. She walks to her car and slides into the seat after Wayne held it open for her. He slide in next to her and ignites the engine before driving down the road. Selene stares at out window as he drives her home. She reached for a pack of cigarettes from the dashboard and lits a stick. Wayne stares at her in disbelief. She smokes!?. He rolls down the window a bit as she barely stared at him. For fuck sake would he be able to keep up with his job as her secretary, with her flirty and angry attitude?. He hopes so.

He pulls up at her residence minutes later and kills the engine. Selene tosses the burnt out cigarette out of the window and runs her palm down her hair.

“We’ve arrived boss” He unstraps his belt and goes out to open the door for her.

“Thanks” She forces a smile and he nods. The security guard opens the huge gates and Bill steps out to meet her. He paused in his tracks as he sees Wayne. Selene stared at Bill who’s gave was grim with anger.

“Who the fuck is this Selene” He says and knot his brows at her…
