《The Revenge Of A Businessman》Chapter 5
Advertisement
The party will be starting in about 2 hours. I have to start getting ready. I went to take a shower and washed my hair. I came out and dry my hair and decide to curl it which I never did before. I took out the curler which was still in its box in the corner of my wardrobe. I curled my hair and tied it in a ponytail across my shoulders. I put on some foundation and a blue eye-shadow with a bit of silver glitter. I put on mascara and a light pink lipstick. I put on my dress and my shoes before grabbing a silver purse which had my phone and my house keys.
I was now ready to meet my new boss!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Before going inside I made sure that I was okay.
I entered inside and was immediately greeted.
“Hey Mia”
I turned and saw Jordan.
I greeted her back and asked her how was she.
“I'm fine and I must say you look very sexy in this dress.”
I was now blushing. I didn't expect a girl to tell me this.
I thanked her and said the same to her. She was wearing a long red strapless dress with black heels even though her dress was covering her shoes, knowing Jordan it must have been a black heels as black was her favourite colour.
“Did you see Gabriel?”
“Yeah he's in the backyard.”
“Thanks. See you later!”
I went to grab a drink before going to look for Gabriel. I saw Gabriel standing near the pool talking on the phone.
I waited for him to finish before joining him.
“Hey Gabriel” I greeted him.
He turned and stared at me.
“What's wrong? Is there something wrong on me?” I asked while touching my face.
He immediately grabbed my hand and said:
“No you are...beautiful.”
I was now stunned. Gabriel was still staring at me until someone cleared their throat and we both turned to see who it was.
It was Lucas an employee and a great friend of ours.
“I'm sorry but the new boss has come and is asking for you Gabriel.” He said.
“Tell him I'm coming!”

“Okay! See you then!”
“Mia come I'll introduced you to my friend and your new boss.”
Yeah! Was all I could say?
We enter in the room and Gabriel started looking for his friend.
“There he is!” Gabriel said pointing towards the bar.
I looked in the direction of the bar. I saw a huge figure with broad shoulders wearing a black suit. Gabriel and I walked to the bar.
“Hi J” Gabriel said when we reached him.
J? What sort of name is this?
The man turned and I got the shock of my life.
“YOU” We both said in unison.
Gabriel had the look you-know-each-other on his face.
I did not bother telling him and I was surprised to see that ‘J’ also did not answer him.
He continued to stare at me like the other day.
Then Gabriel cleared his throat and we both turned to him.
“Well this is Jacob Max; your new boss and this is Amelia Isabella my secretary.” He said winking at me.
I was damn sure that my face was now red like a tomato.
We did not bother to shake our hands.
I turned to Gabriel and I had a sorry look on my face and said excuse me.
I went to the bar and ask for a strong drink.
This man was my boss! I cannot accept this. I hate him too much and I cannot work with him. But I'm glad that I will be the secretary of Gabriel and not his.
If I have to become his secretary then I would leave the job. After finishing my drink I went to talk with Jordan a bit.
Suddenly my eyes met his and we continued to stare as if we were challenging each other to break first. He looked back at Gabriel who did not notice anything. He was talking something to him but I could not hear anything but I'm sure that he was talking about me as they were continuously looking at me.
After drinking so much I felt the need to go to the toilet. I stood up and went directly in the loo. I came out and was looking at myself in the mirror when I heard the door closing behind me.

I turned and saw my arrogant boss Jacob standing there. What was he doing in a ladies bathroom? I thought. I turned back to the mirror and ignored him.
Suddenly I felt someone holding my wrist. I turned and saw him.
“Let go of my wrist. You're hurting me.”
I was pinned against the wall with both my hands at the top of my head. I look him straight in his eyes and said what. He did not answer me but lean closer. Our face was now close. I was now a little bit scared. Was he going to hurt me? I opened my mouth to say something but just then his mouth crashed into mine.
I stood there like a statue. I did not know what to do! Just then he held my wrists with only one of his hand and the other one was on my thigh slowly going up.
Just then he started to lift my dress and I gasped. As soon as my mouth opened he put his tongue in it and started exploring.
I don't know what took me and I started to kiss him back.
Our lips were now moving in sync. He let go of my hands and put his hands on my waist pulling me closer to him and I wrapped my hands behind his neck deepening the kiss.
Just then I don't know what took him and he stopped. I came back to my senses and realised what I've done. He took a step back and snapped at me:
“What did you just do?”
I was shocked. “You kissed me first” I said.
He turned his head and sigh. He again turned to me. I could not look at him in the eyes.
“I'm sorry.” He said.
I lift my head and I was like ‘really?’
He continued.
“Just forget about the kiss and I'm sorry once again.”
He turned to the door and opened the door and went.
I look in the mirror once again before going in the hall. I didn't want anyone to know that I just make out in the bathroom. As I came out Jordan came to me and asked:
“Where were you? I've been searching for you for about 30 mins.”
What? I've been making out with my new boss for about 30 mins! I said in my mind.
“I'm sorry I was near the pool. I wanted to be alone for some minutes.” I said quickly.
“It's ok. Anyway Gabriel is searching for you.”
“Where is he?” I asked her.
“There!” she said showing me where he was.
“Thanks!”
“Okay then bye I'm going home!” she said waving at me.
I waved back at her!
I went to Gabriel and I was about to take a step back as soon as I saw who was standing next to him but Gabriel noticed me. I did not want to go there when he was talking to Jacob. I forced a smile and went to him.
“You were looking for me?”
I could feel Jacob's eyes on me. I did not have the courage to look in his eyes. Then Gabriel asked me where was I?
‘I was in the bathroom making out with this man over here!’ I wanted to tell him but I knew that I couldn't tell him such a thing. But I decided to lie.
“I was near the pool.”
I could see Jacob smirking in the corner of my eyes. Gabriel did not tell me anything.
“Gabriel I've got to go! Bye.”
“Okay! See you tomorrow.”
He pulled me to him and gave me a peck on the cheek.
Now I was blushing.
Then I saw Jacob staring at Gabriel. I could see that he was very angry. I ignored him and went to my car and drove back home.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I got back home and took off all my make-up and my dress and went directly to bed. I could not sleep all night even if I was tired. I was thinking about the kiss. I really like his lips on mine. I could still feel the taste on my lips. Then I remember that this was the same Jacob Max which I hate. I cannot think of him. I cannot fall in love with him. And this can't happen while we work together. I have to leave this job!

The Queen's Guard
Friedrich Schreiner is a proud gefreiter of the Queen's Guard, 2nd Company: the finest fighting infantry on the continent (barring the Temple Guard; but please don't bring that up). Service is honourable but, with the Empire on a peacetime footing, terribly boring. Affairs take a dramatic turn for the worse when a mysterious invader uses a forgotten and taboo magical means to breach the capital, plunging the nation into chaos and endangering the royal family. With events spiraling out of control, Friedrich is entrusted with a critical mission. Will hot lead, cold steel, and his determination be enough to see him through? The Queen's Guard is what I'm calling a black powder fantasy story: it's set in a loose equivalent of the early 18th century (plus or minus a few pieces I decided I wanted or didn't want). Magic exists, but not in a spell-slinging sort of way: it's Earth-shaking undertakings or minor enchantments forged in by master craftsmen, the grand working of a secretive cabal or a slight nudge to the course of a blow. I, the eternal optimist, have a full trilogy in mind. The first book is The Prince's Arquebusier, hence the cover and the title disagreeing! This is my shot at 2021's NaNoWriMo and RR Writathon! I've hitherto been terrible at writing long-form fiction, so this is an effort to break out of that by having some accountability in being supposed to post chapters regularly. Here's hoping it works! I have an outline, but not too much detail. I'll do my best to avoid continuity errors, doing anything glaringly stupid, or otherwise fluffing my lines, but I can't make any promises on that. Please do let me know any feedback! Always happy to improve. [participant in the Nov 2021 Royal Road Writathon challenge]

Wisdom And Wolf
When I was twenty one I bought my first motorcycle. My only motorcycle. A Harley Davidson XLX, Sportster. Her name is Rohdindae, it comes from the Silmarillion and loosely translates to Horse of the Silent Shadows. This two wheeled mare, of iron and steel, was my sole means of transportation for almost 5 years. Rain, sleet, snow, or hundred degree heat, it didn't matter, I was in the saddle. We went all over this side of the Mississippi together. To places long forgotten by progress or filled to their capacity with humanity. Interesting word humanity, it means all off human kind in one definition, generosity and compassion in another. How often these two definitions are at bitter odds with the other, is something to be seen. These words are a mash up. Tales of the road. The people I met, stories I listened to, and the loves I saw grow, all find themselves here, mixed within these pages. From Maine to Mobile and all the places in between, where people still, somehow, cling on to the good fight. The only fight worth fighting.

Second Wind, legend of Pandemonium (Finished/Incomplete)
The developers of the worlds leading VRMMORPG Edge Online have decided to shut down its servers after over a decade. Shugireth Darkstar, the leader of Pandemonium, Edge Online's top guild, suffers from a deadly disease and his end is near. He hasn't left his VR pod for 5 years, as the medical nanodroids at the hospital takes care of him. Without Edge, he will die, because his physical body has already been all but destroyed by the sickness. Seeing no light at the end of the tunnel, Shugireth Darkstar, the Master of Pandemonium, stubbornly stays behind as the servers shut down... If that was all, we could end this story right here. However, that was only the beginning of the legend of pandemonium. The prelude to the movement, if you will. Shall we see what happens next? -------------- Some notes from Me (The author, gasp surprise): I first wrote this (100k) as an experiment. I saw the advice about having foils for overpowered MCs, and I watched quite a few lectures on writing. I wanted to test things out for myself and see if I could carry a story through other ways than only relying on physical conflict like some thrillers do. Thus this might lean a bit towards slice of life with a romance subplot, but I don't want to give my story away so read it if u want to know more. This was basically never intended for anyone else's eyes but my own, and written to explore writing as a process. This wasn't my attempt at writing a good book, but it turned into something that I think might interest some people, so I decided to pop it up here. It is slightly old so my style and writing skills have advanced considerably since I first started this thing. Having said that, I think it's pretty readable, but I am very interested in how other people will receive this. Please feel free to criticize it and just in general shoot me some feedback on what you think. It contains light Litrpg elements, not heavy table spam, it's just the basis of the world. Although I like that sort of thing, this was written before I even knew of Royalroad and hadn't considered litrpg much. Some of you may recognize that it was slightly inspired by Overlord. Also, the Tags for sexual content and traumatizing content are there as a precaution on all of my stories pretty much, even if my story does not contain any of that at the moment. I can't really know what the future will bring, but in the case of this story I do know a little bit, since I wrote 100k words before posting it here. And I just posted it on a whim because I figured some readers on Royalroad might enjoy this story.
