"The girl who can cut her long hair can kill a man too."

"Oh my ... I didn't even recognize you, Olivia. This look suits you". Sophia said with a big smile on her face while I was blushing like an idiot.

I head towards my room. 

"Who's this new girl . Huh". Someone said with a deep voice.
I turned and there Ashton showing his white teeth.

"New girl has a name i.e Olivia ".
He chuckles and placed a hand on my shoulder.

"You look beautiful you know". He replied.

My cheeks turn red. Usually, he never compliments me. Hide my reddish face covering it with hairs which is not that helpful.
"I know that. Thank you."

We head towards our desks. My colleagues gossiping about something. Correction: They are gossiping about my new look. I just ignore them, I pulled my chair.
Still that thing running in my mind how will I get to know what he is doing in California. I need to know before we get caught. 

"Hey, Olivia . Wanna come to eat something". Ashton asks me in a low voice.

"Yes. Of course!". I need some coffee too.  And also some distraction too.

We head towards the cafeteria ate some snacks and buy caffeine drinks. Ashton is busy on his phone, probably he has a girlfriend. It's just my observation.
Suddenly the phone ring that is placed on Sophia's desk and her expressions change immediately.
"Yes sir . I'll get it now".  There is no doubt who she is talking to. Mr.Devil.

"So what's his order"?. I raised my eyebrows.

"Huh.. How do you know it was him". She asked me in amusement.

I chuckled ." I'm smart you know".

"Hey .. will you do me a favor". She asks me with hesitation.

"Yeah of course..."

"Will you get a coffee for Boss. I have, work here and it's the first day of my period. I'm feeling a little dizzy."

"Ohh!! for The Boss". I sighed.

"Are you okay with it ".. she asked in a concerned tone. She knows that The Boss and I didn't have a good history.

"Yeah totally cool. No worries."  I didn't saw him lately.

I looked for Ash but he is nowhere.  I get a coffee for Boss and head towards his den.

I knock on the door. No one replied I again knock still no response opens the door I entered his office It's quite eerie. He is not here. Inner me jumping like a kid. I quickly rushed towards his desk.  Placed coffee on the desk and quickly turned suddenly my hand struck into some pile of files and they fell on the floor.
Crap...!!
Quickly pick the files and placed them in the right place. I sighed with relief.

"Who are you. And what the hell are you doing here". That deep voice. I jumped in shock and again the shit happens. Files fell on the floor. He examined me carefully. Probably he didn't remember me.

"Ohh...It's you, Miss Reed".

Woah!! he remembers me That was unexpected.

"You didn't answer my question.  What are you doing here"? He stands in front of me. My nostrils get his sweet cologne. I gulped down the saliva when I notice the upper 3 buttons are undone revealing his body and some black ink carved onto his skin. But I couldn't see the whole art. My subconscious slapped me and get me back to reality.

"Umm. I get your coffee. I need to go".  I rushed.

"Wait" I turned back. He is sitting on the desk where his arms are crossed on his chest revealing his arm muscles.
I raised an eyebrow.

"Clear this first". He showed me the mess that I created.

I bite my lower lip and he moved back on his desk sitting on the chair going through some files. I quickly arrange the files.

"Can I ask you something"?I ask hesitantly because I don't know if he will shout at me or not.

"Go on". He placed his hands on the desk giving me his full attention. Since when he becomes so tempting.

"I heard that you are working at night too. What's so important? " Placing the files on his desk again I ask.

"I'm not keen to answer these types of questions but the beauty overpowers this time. I have a meeting next month on a project that will profit our company a lot."

"Oh okay . Good luck". With that, I head towards the door. Beauty overpowers what he meant by this. Is he referring to me? Nah!! I'm thinking too much. He might fucked more beautiful women than me even models".

"Wait. Should I tell you to leave?" ..
Ugh, I narrowed my eyes. What's wrong with this guy. He is good to me a few seconds ago and now he is again back to his asshole nature.

"Yes sir..." I rolled my eyes and yeah he notice. A smirk played on his lips.

"Arrange that bookshelf too..." He showed me the bookshelf with his eye movement.

"Ohh okay."
What. I started making weird faces but that doesn't bother him Is he trying to irritate me? Doesn't he find anyone else to mess with? Fucking Moron. Here am already in a big problem and yeah he finds this day to irritate me.

I rearrange all files and books in a few minutes I lean on the bookshelf and show him with my hand that it's done.

He turned his face towards me and placing his hand on the jaw and examine the shelf. Wait a minute, he is scanning me instead. I checked my shirt if any button was undone or anything, everything is fine. What's wrong he never looked at me like that.  He is always that arrogant boss.

"I'm offering you a job." He says. Is he talking about the job I was thinking of something fetish in his mind?

"I already have". I retorted placing my arms on my chest. Still leaning on the bookshelf.

"I know. But I'm offering you my secretary's job"... He offered me to sit in front. Setting the skirt I sit on the chair crossing arms on my chest. Huh. I don't know why I'm showing him attitude but I think, now I have a little privilege as he needs my help.

"Your Secretary job . How can I even manage two jobs on one single salary ". I raised my eyebrow.

A grin played on his lips. He leaned back on his chair. "See the matter is, I urgently need a secretary and you seem perfect for it. And don't even worry about the salary. I'll give you double salaries and if there's any problem with running both jobs simultaneously, you can choose my secretary's job".
"And most important you don't have any choice . Just remind your previous encounter with this company's CEO".

Oh fuck. I thought he just forget that. I rolled my eyes at his last words.

"Let me think"
This is a great opportunity to pay every bill and loan and even we can buy a new house if I'll consider both jobs. I know it's quite hectic for me to do both jobs but I need to buy a secure place for us when I know that he is in this city.

"Okay. I accept your offer". I say quite loud. He handover me a form for his Secretary's job.

"So what about your other job.". he raised his eyebrow placing his arms on the desk. His blue piercing eyes looking for the answer. I never thought that someone's eyes make so much effect on me. His dark life hides behind those lustrous blue eyes. And am not going to ask anything about that. I can't take the risk of unleashing a devil.

"Both. I'll do both jobs".
He raised his eyebrows in amusement.

"You are quite ambitious Olivia..". He pushed the chair backward and move his hand for a handshake to seal this deal. When I touch his hand, they are quite rough and I felt some tingling sensation run through my veins. I pulled my hand and give him a warm smile. Olivia, he used my first name. Wow, it looks so good to listen to my name. I never thought my name is so mesmerizing to hear.

"Oh .. by the way .. These are the files that you should go through first. It's about my schedule for the next week." You should manage everything and inform me from time to time about my meetings. He handover me a pile of files. Like seriously.. ". Grab the files I move them back to my desk.

Ugh..... I grab my forehead with both hands.

"Hey.....I was worried about you. Sophia told me that you grab a coffee for him.."Ashton asks me from another side in a worried expression.

"Yeah"... I say with a tired expression.

"Don't tell me you again mess up with him.." his words felt like needles. Am I look like I argue with people randomly.

"Come with me," I whisper... He followed me in the hallway.
"There's something important that I wanna tell you. " I say with a low voice.

"Tell me, you again jump into a fight"..he looked really worried about me.

"What.. Not at all". I shake my head in disagreement

"Thank god."He sighed in relief.

"I got another job"

"What. So you are leaving "...again expressions changed on his face, poor boy he can't even hide his emotions.

I slap on his arm in an annoying way. "Why are you interrupting me again and again. Let me finish first ."

"Boss offered me his secretary's job. Now I have to manage both jobs simultaneously. And he is giving me double salaries.." I complete my statement in one go before he again opens his mouth.

"How you are gonna manage these." He asks in a concerning way.

"I don't know . But I have to somehow". I sighed

He cheers me up with his bad jokes. I go through all the files that he gave me before dawn.

Mom is blushing all the time she told me that everyone at the job compliments her about her new haircut and after so many months, she is clicking pictures. I told her that Mr.Devil offered me his secretary's job too. And I accept his offer without any second thought. And she is quite amused that I didn't get into any fight and I control my temper like mature people. I'm also impressed by it.
