《The Possessive Billionaire✔️》Chapter 4
Advertisement
My eyes immediately shot open at the sound of my alarm ringing I groaned as I turned to my side to shut of my alarm.
Today is my first day working at Lockwood Industries as the new personal assistant. I looked at the timer on my bedside table.
7:30am
I got up from my bed and walked into my bathroom to start my morning. After doing my business, I headed into my closet.
So since I'm gonna be working at the high end office building, I need to dress professionally. So I grabbed a black pencil skirt, a long-sleeved red blouse and some black high heels and I'm ready to go.

I knocked gently on the door to Mr. Lockwood's office and I heard a deep 'Come in" so I slowly opened the door. Mr. Lockwood looked up from his papers and smiled at me.
"Good morning, Riley"
"Good morning" I replied as he got up from his chair and walked over to me. He ordered me to follow him and I did without hesitation.
We walked out of his office and stood in front of a door that had a small sign that read 'Personal Assistant' on it.
"This is your office and where you'll spend the most time working in" he said before opening the door.
The room was twice as big as my bedroom. There was a large marble desk at the back of the room and large windows that provided an incredible view of New York. There were also decorative plants around the room and art work on the wall.
Mr. Lockwood walked over to the desk, opened the drawer and pulled out an iPhone 7 plus and a new MacBook Pro.
"The iPhone contains every contact of your co-workers, including myself. And you can use the laptop for work. The telephone on your desk is for clients and other CEOs to call you on. Do you have any questions?" He explained. I shook my head no.

"There's some files in the drawers that need to be placed in alphabetical order and checked. And there's also some documents that need to be faxed"
That was the last thing he said before exiting my office. And I got to work as soon as possible.

"So how's your day going so far?" Annabelle asked me. We were currently on lunch break.
"It's going pretty good. I mean, he hasn't been mean or anything to me which is a good sign, I guess"
"Who hasn't been mean?" I heard someone ask from behind us. We turned around to be met with a guy who looked to be around the same age as us. I'm guessing he works here. He's actually kind of cute.
"H-hi, Caleb" Annabelle said, her cheeks flushing. So Annabelle has a crush on this Caleb guy.
"Hey Annabelle. How are you?" He responded back, flashing her a smile.
"I-I'm great. How are you doing?"
"I'm good, thanks" he turned towards me.
"You must be the new PA, I'm Caleb" he extended his hand for a hand shake which I gladly returned.
"Nice to meet you Caleb, I'm Riley"
Caleb decided to spend the rest of his lunch break with us. After he left, I decided to confront Annabelle about him and she couldn't stop blushing. To be honest, they're gonna make a cute couple.
When lunch break was over, I head back to my office to finish my day of.

The Stormcrow Cycle
Once a powerful and lauded witch, Ba'an salu-Ba'an now lives alone in a cave in the desert, waiting to die. When she rescues an outlander from certain death she becomes embroiled in a deadly game of politics and empire, of heart and soul, but worst of all--of hope and love and a chance at a peaceful future. Can a disgraced witch find a reason to live her life again--and if so, what price must she pay? The Stormcrow Cycle is a trilogy comprising of The Exile, The Lion, and Abomination. Tags or genres for each book: The Exile: romance, slice-of-life The Lion: romance, slice-of-life, politics Abomination: tragedy, high/epic fantasy (aka "Everything is on fire!") Updates once a week whenever I have time. Cross-posted on Wattpad and Scribble Hub. The CBMokedi cover will return! Excerpt: She looked down at him again. Young. Healthy, from what she could see, except for the wound that was killing him. He was handsome in a way that suggested a life of wealth and plenty. She did not think he had ever starved. Someone important. Her shadow fell across him, and he frowned. Blearily, he opened his eyes. They were amber and bright, even as he lay dying in the dirt. She could feel his soul, blazing inside of him like a fire refusing to die even as his body began to fail. He met her gaze, eyes widening in what she guessed was surprise—or shock. But he never looked away, staring up at her as though transfixed. Ba’an made her decision. She raised her hand and covered his eyes. In another moment, a murder of crows cawed as they took wing. The man and woman were gone from the road, leaving only the dead staring up into the sky. Note: This is a high-fantasy set in a low-magic world. The first book is largely character-driven and we really only hit the real plot in Book II, so if you're not fond of long epic yarns you ought to skip this one. I also don't include trigger warnings, but mind the "traumatizing content" tag--all societies minus one practice slavery and the world is indeed, rather grim!
