  I cast a brief glance in his direction and saw her mouth open, shocked by my rude way to welcome. "Get used, Melissa. You have not seen anything yet". Nicole heard saying something about overtime. What the hell was that? My sister knew that I did not allow. She put that dealt with that girl in the company's compliance, or find another employee.

  - No one in this company is overtime, unless it is strictly necessary.

  Nicole ignored the threatening look at me, as well as its justification. I tried to keep attention on my work, but the girl, Melissa, still ahead of me, scared, blushing more and more. It was very hard to concentrate. So I did not hear what Nicole said soon after, but needed to respond. I could not let my weakness for beautiful women destroy my most competent CEO image of the city.

  - Great! - I knew that this would be a good answer to anything that Nicole said. I turned my attention to Melissa. - MS. Simon? Since it is responsible, fix it. Your first responsibility is to return my car to its rightful place.

  I held out my keys to her, begging that nothing bad happened to my car. I could ask any more competent person, but unintentionally, the idea was already formed in my head. That should be enough to scare her. He knew he should keep it away from me, at least the way was needed. There would be nothing new if she left the office before returning to my room.

  - But ... - I stared at her huge green eyes and almost lost myself in them. Her blush was even more pronounced. It was a perfect match in a skin so clear. I wondered how it would be if I ... No. Better not imagine.

  - In ten minutes I'll call Miss to pass him his second responsibility.

  She immediately walked toward the elevator. I did not give myself the trouble to look at it, but Nicole would follow her and I needed to talk to my sister before. Also I did not need anyone telling Melissa that I was not the monster appeared. It was just a bad day on had nothing to do with her car taking my spot.

  - You stay, Nick, you also, Alexa. We need to talk - I walked into my room. It only took the elevator close the door to Nicole start your inquisition.

  - What are you doing? You want her to go away? - I did not answer. I sat at my desk and turned on the computer. - I did not get anyone with such a good resume as hers and Alexa can not leave Bruno alone any longer.

  I snorted. Bruno was pretty big boy to get run out of the girlfriend for a period. I opened my email. A million new messages. My day usually began full. Five Mennie messages. Nicole was better not see that. I had too many problems.

  - She parked in my job - I have spoken without patience. - Nicole, I need someone who understands the meaning of the word "rules" - was making a point of being obnoxious.

  - You are unbelievable! Will not affect my work, Robert, or I swear to God, I will not care who you put in here. I swear to god! - The only way out would be to ignore it.

  - Alexa? - Nicole was irritated and turned his back.

  - I think Melissa realizes - Alexa spoke while accompanying Nicole's reaction. - Little talk, but I can spend time teaching her.

  - I do not want to waste my precious time - took to open the email Mennie. The same old thing. Wanted to see me. Knowing how I was. Clambering an entire afternoon. "When she leave me alone?" I deleted the message.

  - It will not be necessary. She is very helpful. I'm sure it will fall quickly.

  Alexa was eager to return to his office next to Bruno. For the love of God! No one in the company could take the work seriously? They had all night for anything else.

  - She will run before the day ends.

  - What? - Nicole groaned.

  - That such Melissa looks like a scared child. Can not afford to hold my pace of work - she had no idea how much. - I bet my salary as this little girl goes away running this room before the day ends.

  - You're an idiot, Robert.

  - Go to work, Nicole - esbravejei. - You too, Alexa. I can turn around with the new girl.

  - Melissa Simon - Nicole corrected me before leaving the room.

  - IT IS. Melissa Simon - who now occupies my thoughts more than it should.

  Alone in my room I could return to the small phone fight with Tanya. She never let me free of it. Every day of my life I would be punished for the choices I made. Even with everything torn from me. While there is no hope for happiness. Even I transformed my life on this battlefield who was living with my own past. There was no hope for me and would have to live with it.

  Every day I tried to erase the memories with lively conversation, drinks in the evening, in addition to one or the other night some woman in my bed, but when the sun went away and when I was alone in my room, it was impossible to me forget every word spoken, every choice made. All I condemned to eternal darkness that was to be within myself. This detail no one could see, no one would be able to undo.

  I did not hear the elevator coming up, but I saw movement at the front desk. Soon I assumed it was her. I immediately called the camera kept me informed of everything that happened in my room so I could watch her without much tact. I gave the appropriate zoom closing the picture on it.

  He was disheveled, despite the effort to recompose the image. Panted. I could see the curves of her breasts rising and falling due to accelerated breathing.

  I could not identify if the blush on his face was the effort or the shame. It was wonderfully sexy. Melissa looked innocent, but her eyes made it clear to me that she was not. I just needed a little push. What would not I give.

  - MS. Simon.

  I requested your presence. 'Let's get this over with.' She came into my room. I took care to pretend that analyzed something on my computer. In fact, I changed the camera to be able to watch it from that angle. She was really scared. I took the sheets of paper that Nicole had given me and pretended to be looking at them, looking from time to time for her through my computer screen.

  She was very observant. Paying attention at all. Analyzed the room, the environment. Whatever your eye could reach. I was impatient, anxious. Suddenly I felt anxious too. It was as if there was a need to say something. I was troubled.

  - When end the inspection ... - I felt like confronting her. I really wanted to see her run. His attention turned to me. His eyes were pure shock.

  - Excuse me! - Oh no! She was the typical submissive, vulnerable girl. A scared little girl and totally mesmerized me. It was an easy prey. I needed to get her out as soon as possible.

  - It is not enough. Miss now works for a CEO. It is important to be attentive to all the needs of this sector. Should always be available - this was my traditional speech. In my company all staff should be available, so it came before and collaborating for the overall functioning of the organization.

  - I'm sorry - completely submissive. She bit her lip and looked away. I could do the devil with that girl. I wanted to do that?

  - You're late - needed to get away from my thoughts. She was not strong enough for me. - I said in ten minutes. Miss arrived in thirteen. Three minutes late. Not to mention that should have been presented with half an hour in advance so that Alexa and Nicole could instruct her properly.

  As I spoke she stiffened. His attentive and smart eyes shot them myself. "Oh! A significant change. " I leaned forward analyzing it directly, without using the cameras. As far as she could stand?

  - I did not know - come on, Melissa! What can you do for me? What you are? Weak or strong?

  - We do not tolerate delays, Miss. Simon. Miss. Nicole will explain better at night when you are playing the role of a nanny, while losing a family meeting. I hope to be grateful to her for this and the next time realize that delayed its just causing trouble for everyone.

  That was it. I could go further. He could force it a little more. I knew that after all she could leave me crying or face and show what was really capable of.

  - And now the lady is making me lose more time. Agendas - said after understanding his gaze lost. She would cry for sure. It would be fun and Nicole would kill me.

  The camera saw tired walking to the table to get the agen
das. He returned even more drag, stopping in front of me. Do not let her continue. Melissa was interesting when contradicted. His eyes tightened and she bit her lips, and you can see your breath speed, which allowed watch your curves of her breasts dancing.

  - MS. Simon, Miss have a voice? I thought I only communicated with frightened eyes - laughs delighted with my performance. I suggested that she sit down. I could feel her trembling and falling. It was better to sit. - I believe that there was no time to Alexa teach her what to do when I come to the company - Alexa had done what was possible.

  - No, Mr. Carter - again submissive, but his chin stuck out. "What are you Melissa?" I found myself too eager to find out.

  - I need to know what's scheduled.

  I looked again my attention. I did not want to see it that way. She started talking about my commitments. So different from Abgail it was systematic. Melissa was something else that would not let me find out. Hiding its true face. Had much of it not overflowed. I wanted to overflow. I wanted to unveil it, know what existed in his heart. I decided to cause a little more.

  - We start always the black book, Miss. Simon - ran my hands through his hair shooing thoughts. I could not wrap her in it.

  - Excuse me!

  No. No. No. Do not do that Melissa!

  - Do not apologize, Miss. Simon. The black book, please! - I spoke with indifference, disgusted with the complexity that was her personality. Melissa was the inexplicable.

  - Meeting at 15: 00h with Brazilian representatives.

  - Hmm! - Since we would have to do that, we would do the right way. - Miss speak Portuguese?

  How important was that? Abgail certainly had hired the interpreter, as he always did. Why did I feel that misplaced need to press it, find its limit?

  - No

  Oh, Melissa! You give me more and more reasons to keep pushing.

  - How can accompany me to this meeting will not even understand what they say? - What nonsense. She did not need to go through that shit.

  - I speak Spanish - almost laughed.

  - When you reach the meeting will understand that it is absurd to think you can understand Portuguese only because he speaks Spanish. What our departure time?

  She did not answer. His eyes begged for help, going the agenda in their hands to me and from me to the agenda. It would be destroyed quickly. Very fragile, as I had thought.

  - Where will the meeting, Miss. Simon? - Sure the information was noted on the agenda. Abgail was very efficient. Melissa seemed pleased to find the correct answer. - You drive? - I came to observe it from the computer. I was very curious, but should not face her. She dismount to do so.

  - Where can I find this information? - I could not help but laugh.

  How could I know where to find information? Most likely we would drive. We did not use the helicopter so often. Especially for such a location nearby. I ran my hands through his hair again. I should not have asked that question. The poor thing would break into a thousand pieces. Unable to prevent the pressed a little more.

  - MS. Simon, what are you doing here? - His face was completely red and she began to bite her lip. It was sexy. Very sexy. And she was almost crying. It was time to run. - How did you end up in this position?

  To my utter surprise, Melissa responded. She did not run away and weeping as I expected. His eyes narrowed, his chin stuck out. I felt really threatened. A creature so small and fragile it was brave to me.

  Now yes I know what it is.

  - I was hired because of my training, Mr. Carter. I have a degree in economics. I have an excellent resume. I do not speak Portuguese, but I speak fluent Spanish, French and German. That should be enough for any company. I have experience in the field in which I am trying to act since I got here, however I have no way to guess how the business works because nothing was me informed ... - stopped listening to what she said from there.

  Only looked the way it was expressed. As he defended his right to office. Was that what I wanted, what we needed in the company. She was strong. Just hiding behind the fragile little girl image and needed care. Melissa was wonderful! I was alarmed when I realized that I was having an erection. I was delighted to the point that I could not prevent my physical reaction. Melissa Simon wanted when they could not, or should want. And then she left the room, slamming his feet indicating he was leaving. I could not let her go. Not that way.

  CHAPTER 4

  I turned heading towards the exit of the room. I just wanted to pick up my bag and walk away from that place. I wanted to run, but my legs felt like jelly. So I focused only walk away, even if at a slow pace.

  Despite all the breadth of the place it was almost impossible to breathe. I needed urgently air. I realized I was shaking. When the adrenaline rush passed, surely regret bitterly. In fact, already beginning to regret. My attitude could jeopardize my professional life.

  I reached the table and before I could get my bag, I noticed the light blinking phone, indicating the line of Mr. Carter room shortly after the call tone filled the room. I looked behind me looking for sure if it was a joke, though he sat with the phone in hand, looking at me, suggesting that I answer.

  With trembling hands, I obeyed. I took up the phone closer to my ear. No need to talk. We still did eye contact which made the tension almost palpable in the air.

  I held my breath waiting for what he would say. Mr. Carter watched me through its glass wall. His gaze was intense and hit like I was touching me. I could feel it completely. It was too exciting. I let my free hand support me at the table, dazed by the intensity of his gaze.

  He said nothing.

  My lips parted, as if to receive it and closed my eyes, breaking the strength of him in me. I could still feel his gaze burning me. It was too crazy for a single day. What was happening?

  - MS. Simon? She pulled me out of the trance. I opened my eyes to look at him back, waiting. I was afraid. That could be extended. He could prepare more of it. - Come back to my room, please.

  My legs began to tremble in anticipation of what he would do, however, as it should be, obeyed his command slowly returning to your room. He followed me with his eyes all the way. I stopped in front of his desk waiting.

  - Sit down, please - obeyed feeling that my whole body was shaking.

  Where was my courage at that time? I said so many things. I was almost regaining my freedom back to my life simple, but harmonious and, in an inexplicable way, was there again, sitting in front of him, obeying his orders.

  - Mr. Carter, I ... - he extended his index finger me for a moment.

  - MS. Simon, I like people with a strong personality. Especially when they have to defend a position or point of view. I confess I was impressed with this turn in his behavior. I thought it was merely a trapped bug, but to my surprise, the lady responded - his eyes flashed as a wry smile played on his lips. - I like women with attitude - as fast as it came, the smile faded. - But do not get used - He glanced back to the papers on his desk. - And do not come back to talk to me this way or be fired - I came to breathe, but my legs were still shaking.

  - No need to get up later with Nicole. I allow to come early tomorrow so she can explain the rules of the company. If she agrees, of course! Now you can return to your desk and organize agendas for your iphone. I do not care. Abgail used to separate everything not to lose. I just want the necessary information at the time I need. Right? - I nodded slowly in agreement. Mr. Carter looked at me Eyes corner. - And find out how and at what time we will go to the meeting. Use all your curiosity to find out what is important to do your job. Now go.

  I picked up the agendas of the chair, took three steps back and before turning to leave the room, I noticed a small, however almost imperceptible smile forming on his lips.

  I returned to my desk letting the door close behind me. I could tell he was in shock. Never before I had lived such a burst of adrenaline. I felt exhausted and had not spent half of my time there. If all my days were like that, I would not need more than diet, however, wo
uld have to fight not to lose weight.

  I sat down and opened the white book through all your notes for my iphone. Commitments of his personal life. Nothing outrageous or abnormal, but some information to send flowers to Tanya or buy gift Olivia, caught my attention. Who were these women? It is true that a man in his position could have as many women wanted. He was not just rich. It was rich, beautiful and very sexy! When you smiled then? I let out a heavy sigh. It was something worth fighting for.

  Another commitment that caught my attention was scheduled for there exactly one month. It was written "dinner with Tanya" only. "Wow! Agenda busy. " I had to laugh.

  A note scrawled in pencil made me stop to check if he was the right book at hand. I looked to see if it was really the white agenda. Was I went back to scrawl "Meeting with Michael, Nathan and Vincent - Greece.". It would be a meeting between friends marked in Greece, or a meeting that should remain hidden from prying eyes? I sighed and passed the information to my Iphone scheduling the meeting on the date indicated, it would be in a week. It was not my problem.

  I opened the red. I was full of information such as meetings, visits to industries, advice and more internal meetings, plus a few reminders about spreadsheets, contracts, balance sheets ...

  The black book did not contain as much information as the red, although existing commitments seem more than important. Meetings with groups of Saudi Arabia, Brazil, Spain, Canada, China, among others. Almost all with significant time gap between them, There were also two long trips scheduled, one, 20 days ahead to Dubai and another to Sidney, it would be 20 days after the first.

  Once again I found myself intrigued by the commitment that was in white agenda. Does Abgail was wrong? Well, I would have to leave as was noted there, so I tried to eliminate the thought. It was good to hurry to get all possible information. It would be better to avoid another confrontation with the powerful Carter. Ri alone thinking this nickname. It was perfect!

  With all the commitments transferred to the iPhone, I looked for something to help me assimilate faster my duties. I turned on the computer and ... Holy shit! As Abgail was thorough! All so perfectly organized and tidy it would be impossible for anyone to get lost. In the desktop there were several folders in alphabetical order. I really should have come early to see all without arming the whole mess. I felt bad for not having done that way.
