For the first time in the Fays life, he was lost for words. Lifting himself to his feet, the Fay warrior composed himself and said, "Please, come in."
Tinesha was very surprised, what were the chances that the man she would interview with was the same man who had destroyed her coat. Not sure what she wanted to do, the dark beauty hesitated for a few seconds. Her friends were right when they said that Leathan McNeil was an arrogant bastard. How dare he get her all muddy and then take off without an apology of some kind!
"Mrs. Washington?" Leathan said, raising an eyes brow.
Tinesha took a deep breath of inhalation before she walked up to him and extended her hand, she needed this job like the fish needed the water. It took her almost two years to get this appointment, and she was willing to overlook his arrogance for a chance to work for Fay inc. it was in all fairness a dream job, and if she was hired, many doors would open after that with this job on her resume. The possibilities would be endless.
"That's Miss Tinesha Washington." You arrogant pig, she thought as she placed her dainty hand in his huge one.
Electricity surged thoughout the Fay as soon as she touched him and Leathan had to force himself to stay still, "Pleasure to meet you, please have a seat." He said in a deep, controlled voice as his eyes dropped to her breasts.
What the hell came over him, he wondered, as he tore his gaze away from her and took a seat near the huge glass window that overlooked downtown Manhattan. Who is this woman that took his breath away? What did she have that other woman didn't? He is around beautiful women all the time, not one has ever affected him in this way. Angry at himself that he allowed a human to have powerful over him, he quickly recovered and threw a comment at her to cover up his weak moment.
"Tell me Miss Washington, why do you think this position is right for you?" He asked, getting straight to the point.
Tinesha was flabbergasted that he skipped over an apology that she so richly deserved and asked her such an arrogant question. Wanting nothing more than to tell him off and demand an apology from him for ruining her five hundred dollar coat, and then walk right out of this office with her chin held up high, she chose instead to keep her self control in tact, and do whatever it takes to win this position, even if it meant she had to put up with this pompous ass! Taking the chair opposite him, she squared her shoulders back and tilted her head slightly upwards.
"I have given it much consideration and know that I am right for this job." She responded.
Leathan sat back in his chair and crossed his right leg over his left. He waited for her to continue, but realized that she wasn't going to add anything else, and although he already knew that he would hire her, because he found himself extremely mesmerized by her, he wanted to know more about her. "Just what exactly is it that you have to offer that no one else can Miss Washington, you do realize that I have over two hundred resumes to look over before I make my decision, why would you be any different than anyone else? What makes you the right one for this position?"
"Have you read my resume? All the information you need to know is on there. I am worthy of this job Mr. McNeal." She pointed out.
"Miss Washington, I'm sure your resume is decorated with many fancy words bragging about your accomplishments, but I want to hear from you how much you are willing to do to gain this position, every applicant has a resume like yours, what makes you stand out from all the others?" Leathan stopped breathing as he waited for her to answer, and could not help but wonder what it would feel like to run his tongue over her dark, velvety body.
Tinesha looked at Leathan not sure of what he was asking, did his words have double meaning, she thought angrily, was he trying to find out if she was willing to give him sexual favors to secure her position in his corporation, she saw the way he looked down her cleavage when she introduced herself to him, what exactly was he asking of her?
"Mr. McNeil, I have recently graduated from Harvard with top honors, I consider myself a very smart, hard working woman, and have a law degree most woman can only dream off. I have won numerous awards, and may I add that I deserved them all, I have many certificates of achievements that I am very proud of, and am well deserving of this job, Further more, I think the question you asked me should be reversed, was is it that you would offer me to take on this job, what makes this job any different than all the others? With my credentials I can work anywhere I want, what makes your company so special that I would want to work here?" She asked him, as she stared him square in the face without blinking, challenging him to his own game.
Leathan was blown away by her boldness, never in his life has he come across such a powerful strong woman who could hold her own before him. If she were a man she would have balls the size of a bowling ball, he thought. His shaft throbbed wildly, and he knew that he wanted to fauck her badly, but he must control himself, jumping to his feet, the Fay excused himself and headed straight to his private bathroom.
Tinesha watched him walk away, and sighed, the man was a beast, she thought, a handsome, gorgeous beast who probably won't give her the job. She blew her chances of working for Fay inc. and she was very upset with herself.
Leathan closed the door and slammed his huge body up against the wall. Closing his eyes he envisioned the dark beauty naked before him. His hand slipped inside his pants and he grabbed his thick shaft in his hand and stroked it. Dark thoughts of Tinesha laying naked in his bed consumed him and his breathing deepened as he prepared to spill his seed.
When the door to the bathroom opened and Leathan walked out, Tinesha could not help but stare at his tall muscular body, as he made his way back into his chair. She had to admit that he was a hunk of a man, but she reminded herself that he was a pig!
"Is there anything else you want to add Miss Washington, I have another appointment, and I'm running late." He said in a dismissive voice, not wanting her to know that she had rocked his world.
Tinesha lifted herself to her feet, "You have everything you need in my resume," she said as she walked to the door, "but I too feel the need to ask if there is anything else that you would like to say?"
"No Miss Washington there isn't."
"Not even an apology for ruining my coat?" She asked, sick and tired of his arrogance.
"Not even that." He said coldly, "but if you feel like it was entirely my fault I will have my assistant write you out a check for fifty dollars!"
Disgusted with him, she whipped open the door and marched out of the office. "Arrogant bustard!" She muttered as she walked to the elevator.
The secretary looked up from her computer, and wandered what could have gone wrong in such a short period of time.
Leathan stared at the opened door and could not believe that she had walked out on him like that. Jumping to his feet, the Fay ran after her to beg her to come back to his office, but he got to the elevator just as the door was closing, "Tinesha," he said hoarsely, but the elevator door closed in his face.
**************
"I will not allow my son to marry a pheasant!" The King bellowed with anger. "You will be king one day and your children will inherit your throne, and their blood must be from a strong bloodline!"
"Father, I will find her and I will take her as my wife!" William yelled back.
"Over my dead body! I will destroy her and her entire family if she becomes a threat to my kingdom! Don't mess with me son, you will not win this battle!" The king threatened.
"Won't you reconsider?" The Queen begged. "Don't you want our son to be happy? If he marries the princess of Spain, he will have a loveless marriage just like ours!" The Queen argued, regretting her words as soon as they came out of her mouth, not wanting her son to know that she and the King have no love lost between them.
"We married because it was the right thing to do for our countries, and there is nothing wrong with that! Our lives don't belong to us, we are bound by ancient laws, we must serve the crown! It is Williams duty to do the right thing for the people of this kingdom!" The king roared. "You will marry the Princess of Spain and that is final!"
Prince William watched his father disappear down the Great Hall and through the corridor, and turned to face his mother. He hated to see tears in his mother's eyes, and pulled her against his muscled chest. "I don't blame you mother."
"Nor I you, son, but were I you, I would go find the peasant girl if my heart desired her!" The Queen confessed, as more tears glided down her beautiful, ageless face.
