"go and fetch me some papers from finn when you get inside, okay?" i instruct mila and she nods her head obediently. 

i cup her face quickly and kiss her deeply on the lips. this will probably be the last time to ever have it happen again. i don't go for seconds an everyone knows that. i'm surprised that she doesn't.

when i pull away, i get out of the car and she does the same. mila hands me keys and strolls inside, taking a right while i take a left. just how it should be; splitting ways after sex.

that's usually how it is with me, but earlier when she mentioned noah, it made me feel something i've never felt before. some sudden feeling of protectiveness and a feeling to claim her. 

"welcome back mr. mclaughlin." alexa greets me with a smile and her breasts are bulging out of her tight top.

i can't help but let a reveling smirk crawl onto my lips, "good morning."

i love having attractive staff members. she's going to be my next target i swear, i already have her wrapped around my finger. i break our eye contact and continue onward to my office.

once i get inside, i take a seat and immediately pull out my cellphone to call one of my good friends. he's just as successful as i am.

"chosen?" i say once he answers. 

"what's up man?" he says through the phone and i can tell he's smiling.

he's probably getting head. he always has a girl on him and he's always at a club or something. i guess i could blame for him making me so woman crazy.

"i did it." i tell him like a little kid who just got a girlfriend. "i fucked my assistant!"

"that's great! are you going to fire her now?" he asks me.

"i don't know..." i honestly reply.

i've had my reputation try to get demolished by some girls i banged and then left, but it never worked out because i'm the more powerful one when it comes to press. so, what harm can mila do?

"i just hired this girl. reagan. yeah, she's a ten." chosen swoons, making me chuckle.

i automatically hang up without saying anything when i see mila walk in, overlooking the files. i cough and lean back in my chair to cover things up. my phone buzzes and i look down at it.

[chosen] what the fuck you were the one that called me

[caleb] i know i'm sorry my assistant just walked in

"who are you texting?" mila's voice makes my eyes look up from my phone. "you're texting like we're in middle school and you're afraid you're going to get caught by the teacher." she jokes.

i press my lips together and she sets the folders down on my desk. i stand up and excuse myself from the room. i have to talk to alexa and deal with this whole secretary mess. i walk down the large and spacious area and i reach where she is.

"hey, i just saw you." alexa smiles toward me and i chuckle.

"yeah, so i heard lindsay quit." i fold my hands together above the counter.

"yes, i think she said she had a better paying job?" she responds, practically shoving her boobs in my face.

i can't say that i'm not attracted, because i am. god, i already had sex today and i sound insatiable. 

"okay, because of that, you're going to have to work here much longer." i tell her.

her eyebrows arch together, "...were you going to fire me?"

oh shit. i forgot that she didn't know.

"no, i'm just saying." i smile to lighten up the mood and to hide the intentions of my words.

mila's pov+

after a while, caleb doesn't return back into the office and i sigh, standing up to go and see noah. checking up on him because it's his first day and i want to see how he is liking it. i exit his office and my eyes are glued to my phone.

[mila] i'm going to see you right now

after i texted noah, i lock my phone and hear a familiar voice. it makes me want to stop in my tracks, but i continue proceeding. i steal a small glance and caleb is leaning over the counter, laughing with alexa.

for some unknown reason, my blood boils. i don't like him. i can't like him. how am i not supposed to like him? we had sex and i already knew i was going to develop feelings for this bipolar and rude man.

plus, he kissed me in the car, so nothing could possibly be going on with him and alexa while there's something going on between us.

"thanks for being able to work longer, though." caleb adds and i hadn't even realized i did stop in my place. 

my heart stops beating. she's working her longer? dismissing the unsettling though, i go on with going to see noah. i clench my fists as i stand in the elevator. caleb should't wonder where i am. he doesn't even have access to the security cameras.

the elevator stops at the third floor before going down to the second and i refrain from rolling my eyes. i have to ride the elevator with some more people. i look down at my phone to avoid eye contact. 

"mila!" i hear a voice singsong and i look up to see millie. 

it makes me genuinely smile. i have no problem with her at all.

"hold the elevator!" another voice says so i do.

finn appears and it makes me smile even more. these people are the only real friends i have here besides noah. 

"hey, again." i laugh to finn. "fourth floor?" i ask and the both of them nod.

"aren't you going to that floor?" they both ask simultaneously and then both laugh. 

"no, i'm going to the second floor to visit my new working friend." i honestly tell them.

"oh, mr. mclaughlin is letting you?" millie raises her eyebrows.

i shake my head, "i didn't tell him-" the elevator opens up to reveal the second floor. "-this is my stop, i'll see you guys later."

"let's all go to lunch." millie suggests and finn nods. "bring your new friend."

"alright, lobby at 12:30." i say before waving the two off. 

i look around at the signs because i never come down to the second floor. i walk into the accounting area and see the familiar brunette boy. i sneak up behind him and put both of my hands on his shoulders. he turns around, unfazed.

"you can never scare me, mila." he lamely says and i lean up against his desk.

i smile, "i know, but i was wondering if you wanted to go to lunch with some of my friends? finn and millie?" 

"third floor finn?" he asks. "man, that dude is awesome." he laughs.

wow. he's met so many people already. i'm not surprised. noah is very friendly when he wants to be. 

"great, lobby at 12:30-"

i'm cut off by my phone ringing and i slide answer without looking at the caller id. an icy voice speaks from the other end. 

"come back to my office. now."
