《The CEO》Chapter6 - I didnt like him
Advertisement
It had been quite a while since Mr rogers found out I was the girl from the car incident. And trust me I wasn't treated quite well. The work load on me had increased.....it was more like he purposely wanted to piss me off than he wanted to collect the money for his car...I couldn't even get enough sleep at night because he specifically increased my work with no increment in my salary and I still had to work as a ballet trainer. Things weren't getting any easier for me and my brother began to worry that I could break down at anytime...even the other staff members couldn't send me any errands again because I was so busy editing and audting all those files he gave to me. He always left a bunch of them on my desk and would tell me it was due the next day. Jasmine even became worried and asked me if I had offended him one time or the other....well I couldn't remember offending him, I didn't know a car accident could be that offensive moreover I had promised to pay back, he even had my necklace, so what on earth did I do so wrong. Mr donald didn't also stop pestering me for his car repair money.....he even went ahead to threaten me that if I didn't pay for all the damages before my remaining seven months as a temporary staff was over he would make sure I didn't find a job else where and would make me quit my job has a ballet teacher. Where on earth was I supposed to see that kind of money?....its not like I was a thief or someone who would scam people for money, yeah I might be poor but I still had my dignity on.

"Anne Olivia" Mr Rogers shouted my name from his office, it was so typical of him...
"I'mcoming" I replied as I ran to his office not wanting to hear an earful from him, his office was so close to my department which made it easier for him to send me more errands.
"So I would be sending some files to your system...I want you to print them all ,both with colors and without colors" He said without moving his eye from the laptop...he kept on typing really fast.
"Sir, did I do something to offend you, I mean if it's because of your rolls royce, I promised to pay you before the end of this year moreover you are with my necklace and I desperately need it so i'm definitely not running away or something...and from the look of things you obviously have another car which is better than that one, ....so why on earth are you treating my like this, its not like i'm the only staff in this company?" I said truly concerned, the whole work thing was starting to take a toll on me.
"If you feel like you are unfairly treated, u can always drop your resignation letter, its not like i'm stopping ."
"Sir how on earth i'm I supposed to pay you back if you keep overworking me like this...I was planning to find another part time job but its totally impossible if you keep overworking me , its not like i'm a robot and am sure you are definitely not going to increase my salary any time soon." I said in an outburst really frustrated especially on the fact that he carried a completely emotionless face while looking at me, how on earth can an human have no heart.

"Did you just raise your voice at me miss olivia."
"I'm sorry....I would take my leave now"... replied feeling really downcast.
I didn't know what I was supposed to do or where I was supposed to get the money but one thing I was sure of was that Mr rogers was nuts and I definitely didn't like him even much more than I hated mr robert.
I decided to pay mr rogers on time maybe just maybe he would stop giving me a hard time at least for the rest of the month I had as a temporary worker....after I finished my work at around 8pm in the evening, I went around the neighborhood to look for a job that would pay me heavily for my first day. I saw a poster on a club house that indicated "strippers urgently needed". I definitely wasn't going to do that,that would make me much worse than my mom. I decided to discard the thought but then I saw the pay and just kept on reminding myself that it was just for a night.
"I'm sure I can get through this." I told myself as I walked into the club house and told them I was interested, seeing the other girls made me flinch they all looked wild.
Was I going to look like them. There was no turning back this time around... If I were to do it for one night, I would get almost half of the money to pay Mr rogers back.
They had dressed me up like the rest of the strippers..the clothes were very much exposive and trust me when i say i felt soo uncomfortable but I still kept on reminding myself, it was just for night.
Me and the rest of the strippers went to the pole....and the men kept on staring at us with perverted eyes and cheering for us as we kept performing ...I felt so disgusted with myself and silently cursed mr rogers mentally. The show ended at 4am and I was paid the money for the night...
I decided not to sleep that day since it was almost time for work....I just tided up the house and took a shower then left for work...I was happy henry was still fast asleep so he wouldn't know what i was up to in the night.
"Anne Olivia"Mr rogers shouted as soon as he got to the office. I had the money I wanted to give to him in an envelope. My eyes were puffy because I hadn't slept, my head kept aching me and my whole body felt lifeless, I had overworked myself.
"Follow me to my office".
I tagged along with the envelope in my hands hoping I would be able to hand it over to him.
"Miss Olivia, I want you to..........blah blah blah.....
I couldn't hear the rest of what he was saying, I felt so dizzy then I passed out.

Keter
They called him "Keter"; The Top-Most; The Crown. An unsurpassable, unstoppable, unkillable soldier. Etched with a twisted set of morals and studded by an impossible drive for lachesism, Keter terrorized the world for ages. But time, you see, is a most patient thing. As sure as it gives, so does it take. Even the Crown saw the eternal spindle drawing on him. He blinked, for the last time, and saw a world anew. Synopsis. So, basically, I’ve gotten tired of all these stale mcs that keep popping up left right and center. Either they are painstakingly good-natured or horribly written ‘evil’ characters. So, here’s my take on the concept of a Villain. Someone ruthless, cunning, and not shy of seeking darker means to an end. Hell, as long as it’s effective, he’ll prefer the blacker side of business. The new world will be, like many others, one in a medieval-type setting with traces of magic and the like; though I hope to make better use of this than most others who simply steal ideas from classical novels or other sources.

Paternum: A Superhero Story
When Quinn finds an experimental superpower-granting costume in their parents’ attic, they didn’t expect to be drawn into a web of superhuman intrigue, but their discovery serves as the catalyst for that conspiracy to slowly unravel. At it’s heart, Paternum is an extended coming-of-age story for the main character as they become a superhero, in a world with more reasonable stakes and less powerful heroes than many superheroic worlds. Themes include what art means to different people, and what it means to be a patron, whether as a sponsor, a parent, or a supporter. I consider Paternum‘s primary influences to be the various versions of Spider-Man, J. C. McCrae’s own superhero story Worm, and Drew Hayes’ story SuperPowereds. I hope that fans of such stories can find something to enjoy in mine as well. Paternum is primarily hosted on my website (thevoidwrites.com) where it updates weekly in groups of scenes totalling approximately 2000 words. Here on Royal Road, it will update once daily with one scene at a time, but only after each act is completed on the home site - the next batch of updates is scheduled to begin on February 5th. There is a discord channel for discussion (discordapp.com/invite/QFMM6yA), and you can vote for Paternum on topwebfiction (topwebfiction.com/vote.php?for=paternum) as well. Finally, you can buy the first book of Paternum, The Swift Uplifting Rush, in a couple different ways - as an ebook through Amazon, or directly from me for a discounted price, or as a physical paperback from Amazon. Buying the book will give you access to Drawing Hands, an exclusive arc that won't ever be published on either my site or Royal Road.

Dream Theater
Long casted shadows danced in the background, as a man squibbled and jotted words on yellow papers. A mere novelty, remnant and ghost that was left to age away along with the forgotten theater, a man grasped for inspiration to salvage what was left of his soul. Abandoned in the squalid room, Pxan was left hauntedly in the furthest corners of insanity that bubbled in his mind. No one would listen to his plight, denouncing him and claiming his mind was not right. Even though the world left him with nothing, turning their backs to him, he knew the books would never betray him in the same fashion. Faceless pages and books yet to be read ogled puppy eyes, ready to be penned by the madman. “Pxan! Pxan! Over here! To me!” Clamored the unpublished manuscripts. Pxan’s fingers quivered nervously, thoughts of failure flooded his mind. Wanting to surrender to the pressure. “No!” He cried. “I’ve had enough of writing.” Books with eyes all stared at him, begging for the tales to be written. Their pleaful eyes were all that Pxan needed to be moved to writing again. The man sighed and raised his pen again, stroking the first letters of inspiration that bore fruit from his mind. A maddening tale of a policeman, cultists and a violent revenge… -Currently on Hiatus while writing the second volume.The first volume is up. I will take a few days to rewrite a few chapters. Afterwards, updates will proceed as usual.Current rewrite progress 17/59 chapters rewrited. This is my first real novel, any kind of criticism or feedback is appreciated. I am looking for an editor, if someone wants to help me avoid typos please contact me. The cover is a detail of Faust in His Study by Ary Scheffer, c. 1831, watercolor and gouache on paper.

Sensus Wrought
Three millennia past, Gods descended and gave the world sensus. With their gifts came their primordial clash of notions, and so began the wars. Once, there was a place war dared not touch. Once, Evergreen was a haven for all the miscellaneous souls who did not care for the glory of their divine rulers. Once, for when Merkusian, Emporer of Evergreen, was slain, his empire fell into the hands of his widow and children, and thus morphed into the very thing he sought to protect his denizens from, twisting into a warmongering empire the likes of which had never been seen. Aki is stuck. Stuck in and as a Mud. He knows that'll change. Death or power will bring him rescue. Until then, he'll have to survive the road his ambition has chosen for him. It is a perilous path fraught with danger. Some might say it's an impossible path. He’d disagree. Knite is stuck. Stuck in a mask of his own creation. He knows that'll change. Time and opportunity will come and then he'll be free. Free to seek the revenge he so craves. He's never wanted anything more. His family introduced him to pain. He didn't much like their meeting—at first. His kin would rue that day, for he's made pain a friend.
