Beyond The Night

Chapter 1: Invite (1)
Heading to his desk to fill out documents for the upcoming client meeting this afternoon, Alex was still tired because he woke up earlier than usual this morning. To make it even more uncomfortable for him, his brain was remembering the wet dream he had of his boss.
"Why him of all people.." Alex murmured to himself angrily. He had just began work several months ago, he couldn’t allow himself to make mistakes because he’s too focused on how hot his boss it!
However the entire reason he’s having dreams like these is because his boss suddenly confessed to him out of nowhere a week ago. Having a lot of mixed emotions about the entire situation didn’t really help him much.
Alex was almost certain his boss was playing some kind of joke on him, after all he didn’t think of himself as someone that attractive. While his boss Vincent Raycarlton was a billionare and CEO of Liberated a top company in the entire country. It was hard to believe a man like that had suddenly fallen in love with him.
Lost in thought as he was he bumped into someone because he wasn’t looking. “Ah, I’m so sorry… I wasn’t-” after realizing who it was he hesitated to continue his apology.
"What were you saying just now?" Vincent was standing in front of him with arms crossed and a smirk on his face.
"..." Alex fell into silence as he had nothing to say to the man infront of him. In the moment the very idea of seeing him seems unplesant. Mostly because of the fact that his dream was still in his head and it seemed even more realistic now.
"Aren't you going to answer me?" Vincent pressed on for an answer.
But what was Alex suppossed to say? 'I had a wet dream with you this morning and now I'm pissed off' that doesn't seem like something to say to your boss early in the morning, nor at any other time of day for that matter.
It was exausting, just the very sight of Vincent reminded him of the erotic dream he had. And the way his lips are moving right now remind him of all the vulgar things he had said in that dream. Alex couldn’t fully focus on what his boss was saying because of all these distractions.
"I’m sorry Mr. Raycarlton, however I have a lot of work to do. May I go to my desk please?" Alex asked his boss to move out of his way in the most professional way he could think of.
"Of course, but you have to come to my office afterwards." He answered ever so calmly and indifferently as ever. Vincent Raycarlton was known as being a cold man in general. He rarely ever smiled for anyone and was a workaholic by heart.
When it came to the company Vincent would be the first one there and the last one to leave. Often he worked harder than any of the employees there. A lot of people called him an iceberg because of his coldness. However no one could deny his passion for Liberated and they all respected him as their employer.
“Is there something I can help you with Mr. Raycarlton?” Alex wondered what his employer wanted so early in the morning in his office. The secretary should have already prepared his coffee and told him about his schedule already.
"Continue your work for now. Later when you are finished come to my office." Vincent said calmly and went back to his office. Leaving Alex in a rather confused state.

Several hours later Alex went into the CEO’s office. Seeing his handsome boss so focused on his work was a surreal sight for him. He hadn’t seen a man more beautiful than him.
Vincent was a tall man with a strong build. With almost pale white skin and black silky smooth hair he looked very attractive and anyone around him would confirm that. There were also a lot of men that really disliked the man because he was very attractive.
"Mr. Raycarlton, I brought the documents for approval." He said as he was still unsure of the reason why he was called there, but he thought that since he is there anyways, might as well get the documents approved. Two birds with one stone, was it?
"Sit down for a moment." Vincent spoke with a cold voice. Not even bothering with the documents, he has all his attention focused on his employee.
"Sir?" Alex doesn't do as he is told and simply stands there confused. Did he somehow make him angry?
"You never do as you are told, do you?" Vincent stood up from his chair. Walks up to him and wispers in his ear. "I like that about you."
Alex jumps back blushing all the way up to his ears. Memories of his dream suddenly fill his head making him too embarassed to say anything.
"Tonight, come over to my place." Vincent continued, his eyes never leaving Alex's body.
"If it's a personal matter sir, I already have other plans." He quickly regained his composure and rejected the man's offer as professionally as he could in his flustered state.
"It's work related." He persisted "Be there at 9pm and bring the requested investment files on Ally's Bakery.." Vincent said going back to his work mode with a completely and utterly icy and indifferent aura surrounding him.
"Of course I will be there, may I ask why out of work hours?" Alex asked, but he didn't recieve a reply. Vincent simply went back to his desk and gestured for him to leave.

After work…
Alex had parked outside of his employer’s huge mansion. Looking at how big it was he began wondering if he lived there on his own. But more pressing matters were also on the twenty three year old man’s mind. The whole idea of inviting him to his place to talk about Ally’s Bakery made absolutely no sense at all.
"Is it really okay for me to go in there? He did confess his feelings to me a while ago... This seems too intimate to be work related." No matter how much Alex thought about it, it wouldn’t get any better. He just had to muster up the courage to leave the car and go to the front door.
Inside that huge mansion he never would have thought the first thing he would see there to be his employer in nothing but a towel wrapped around his waist.
In such a state Vincent looked even more handsome and dashing than a movie star, however it wasn’t what caught Alex off guard… The fact that his boss wasn’t wearing
“I’m sorry for the state I’m in. I just got out of the shower and heard you ringing on the door.” Vincent explained, while he spoke droplets of water were sliding down from his hair to his neck, going down to his abs and finally getting soaked up by the towel before reaching further down.
Currently Alex was doing his best not to look at his boss’ seductive body.
“It’s okay, may you get dressed first and then we can continue with work.” Alex suggested as work would be that much easier if his employer wasn’t distracting him so much.
“Do you really mind this so much? You’re not even looking at me.” Vincent said coming closer to him.
“I do. Can you please get dressed sir.” Alex repeated as he continued to direct his eyes elsewhere, be it the walls of decor of the house. He didn’t want to look directly at his boss right now.
“Hm…” Vincent simply observed the man in front of him who seemed to be uncomfortable in this kind of situation. He wanted to tease the man a bit because of that. “Do you have a girlfriend?”
“N, no sir I don’t.” Alex answered truthfully. His last relationship was a year ago and it ended horribly with his ex-girlfriend smacking him several times in the face.
“Then a boyfriend?” Vincent continued to ask the young man uncomfortable questions.
“Neither… I’m not into men.” Alex explained as he ran out of places to look at. Vincent had gotten so close to him, almost entrapping him between himself and the closed front door.
“Have you tried it with a man?” Vincent asked suggestively looking at the man’s eyes. Once Alex made eye contact with his boss it was difficult to pull away. He had that kind of magnetic attraction that pulled people in. Maybe it was Vincent’s piercing dark eyes, they looked like they could look right through you with a single glance.
“I-I haven’t…” Alex said stuttering because of the sheer sight that was before him.
Vincent leaned in and whispered into the man’s ear. “Do you… have Ally’s Bakery documents I asked you to bring?” Finally ending the teasing he went back to the topic they had come together to discuss. The shocked Alex hadn’t yet realized what he had heard, but soon enough he realized and answered “I do.”
“Well then that’s good, I can have a look at them later. Do you want to have dinner?” Vincent asked.
“Ah… sir I thought I was here for work. If that’s all. I can go back now. No need to trouble yourself.” Alex answered his boss’s question thinking it’s the perfect opportunity to leave.
“You trouble me that much more when you act so innocent…” Vincent was already had enough of teasing the man in front of him. It was painfully obvious that Alex didn’t understand what was happening because he was too pure and naïve.
In the beginning Vincent took interest in the man exactly because of that vibe he gave off. Now however that was the exact thing that made Vincent want to strip the young man bare.
“What do you mean sir?” Alex questioned his employer. ‘acting innocent’? he wasn’t doing something like that.
The more Vincent spoke it made Alex more and more self conscious about everything happening. Finally looking his boss made him feel something he’d never felt for another man before today.
“Aren’t you going to say something?” Vincent asked looking at the young man that had gone completely silent. But what was he supposed to say in a situation like this? 'I can't continue to look at you because I will probably get a boner if I do' ? ‘I’m not as pure as you think I am’? He couldn’t possibly say either of those things.
Regardless it was the truth. As embarrassing as it was, currently the twenty three year old man was feeling his neither regions throbbing. Just from looking to his boss’s perfectly sculptured body and listening to his seductive voice. Even the way Vincent’s lips moved seemed to be beautiful.
Alex cursed in his mind the damned dream he had today…
