Stolen moments

Chapter 21(B)

Leah stare at the presents with a smile on her face. Too bad she was only going to open it on Christmas day but can she keep her shit together till then. Only time  will tell.

The presents are from her colleagues. It is a tradition in Knight's Corp to exchange gifts before going home for Christmas. It has always been done this way ever since the company was founded by Hunter's father. It was a way to show love and appreciation in the mood of Christmas.

She look out the window only to see it closed as the heater was on. She sip her coffee, a rare thing for her.

Christmas is coming. The best time of the year for her apart from her birthday which was by January of course.

"The CEO wants your file, he is less busy" Leah looks up from her thought.

"Thank you C" Ciara nodded, then she smirks as Leah stares at her confusion. "What?"

"So... Tell me. What is going on between you and Mr CEO. I see an employer employee thing here" Leah groaned placing her cup of coffee back on the table.

"There is nothing going on between Hunter and I" this was not what she needed on a Monday morning. Denying a secret affiliation with her boss.

"Oh... Now you are on first name basis, i like the sound of that" she winked.

"Ciara-"

"Hush dear. Did you think i haven't noticed the way he looks at you with those his foxy hunty Hunter eyes. He watches you leave the room, watches you come back in. Guess everyone got the memo uhn" she wriggled her eyebrows as i rolled my eyes standing up, picking up the file she was talking about.

"Am done with this conversation" I hear her resonating laugh as i walked out of the office.

She is not the only one who thought that way. When Max and I got home, he sat me down giving me a long talk and a disapproving look due to my dance with Hunter.

Even though i pointed out the fact that he dragged me to the dance floor, he said i could have simply kicked him in the balls or bite his fingers off. Yeah, right.

Max and violence...

As soon as i got to his floor, i throw Amy a sunny smile asking if he was busy. She told me to go right in.

I give the door a quick knock. Here goes nothing.

I look up from my laptop as she walked in. I stopped typing immediately relaxing in my seat, taking her in.

I felt my breath seized as we lock eyes. She looks more tempting today. Her legs were on display in the pencil skirt which stopped some metres above here knees. Her blue shirt which was tucked in was missing a button showing a little cleavage. Her big nerdy glasses was a bonus point.

I felt my friend down there getting excited.

"Sir, here is the file you asked for. I have compartmentalize each project for easy identification" I nodded trying as much as possible not to take a peak.

"That is alright, can you get me the file on that cabinet. It is on AP 6" I said, i felt her nodding as i hear the echo of her footsteps in the large office.

Looking through the file, i can hear a slight grumble from Leah. I look up in surprise, then smile.

I forgot the cabinet was high and considering Leah's height even in her stilettos, it was an impossible task for her. I watch as her butt swayed a bit while she tries to reach the cabinet.

Shit! I better do something before i do things i will regret.

I stood up walking closer as i hear her words much clearly.
