Author's POV
"Don't get late, Mili, otherwise we will be thrown out of here on our first day," Cherry was so excited about the new job.
Mili and Cherry asked the receptionist where to go and they took an elevator to the 50th floor. There are other employees too in the elevator. Cherry just smiled at them but Mili was still silent and she did not pay attention to anyone.
As they reached the 50th floor. They directly headed toward a chamber and knocked on the door. As they were guided by the receptionist.
"Come in," A calm and sweet voice came out of the chamber as both of them got entered.
"It's an office, not our principal's chamber that we can get in a group," Mili irritated and stepped back letting Cherry get in.
After a few minutes, Chery came out with a jumbo smile on her face. It was showing that she is finally getting work here. Mili smiled and hugged her when Cherry chirped, "The boss is so handsome and he said we can join today. Even he ordered the peon to show me a table."
Mili shook her head and knocked on the door. As she heard, -Come in. She slipped inside the room.
But her steps halted. Her eyes broadened, "Hey... Prince Shivay Singh Shekhawat..."
"Oh! Princess Mili..." Shivay chuckled and got up to honor her.
"Ssshhhhh," Mili looked here and there is anyone else present there except them.
"I'm sorry..." Shivay surprised.
"Shiv, I'm here to make my career on my hard work and degree. Please don't reveal my identity," Mili pouted requesting him. He felt proud of her.
He nodded as he understands her wish. She smiled shortly at him. He said, "It has been a long we met."
"It has been only six months, Not so long," Mili laughed and Shivay joined her.
He was stunned at this beauty. She has impacted a lot on him before size month. He never expected that he would meet her again this way in the office.
He was still gawking at her. She was looking beautiful in her office attire. Her thick eyelashes are perfectly shaded with mascara and a light makeup touch with matt lipstick.
"So you are the boss." Mili said and asked, "Will you give me this job or not?"
"If the Princess of Jodhpur is here with her biodata, who can deny it?" Shivay laughed and signed her offered letter.
"Well, You are already appointed to a campus interview. So, there is no need for further confirmation," He answered and said, "And..."
He laughed, "I'm not the boss. I'm in charge of his work and office. I'm fixed here by my Dad, he wants me to learn the business from PR."
"Who is PR?" Mili asked surprisingly.
"He is the owner of the PR group of industries. And he is the prince and also soon to be the king of Rajasthan... Prince Prithviraj Rathore" Shivay said proudly.
"Okay, okay..." Mili raised her hands with irritation. As the name is too long, Mili didn't take it seriously. She only knows that she marries the prince of Jaisalmer and his name is Prithvi. But this didn't blink this time in her little brain.
"In short, he is our boss, " Mili sighed. Shivay nodded in yes.
"Well, as per your higher score, you are appointed as his business assistant. Don't be scared, I will teach you how to do your job. He will only sign the documents but before that, you have to finalize every deal and document," Shivay acknowledged her about her work.
"Okay, " She shrugged off.
"And you are a genius girl, you may get a good chance of working better," Shivay chuckled. He is happy to see her here.
He was hating his father a lot for sending him here to work with his arrogant prince Prithviraj but now he is thanking his father in his brain that he is here just because of him. Seeing Mili, his lips are spread in a huge dimple smile.
He ordered coffee for them and asked Mili about her past years. There was a pure crush in his eyes for Mili. But Mili is always dumb in the matter of love and if any guy mistakenly proposes to her, then he has gone. Very next half an hour, he must be lying in the hospital bed.
Shivay wasn't aware of this side of her but he knows her anger. So he is just waiting for a chance to say the feelings of his heart.
They had coffee together and then he came to show her the cabin and explained her work. He was still talking to her when the peon came and informed Shivay that PR is calling him. He excused himself from there and headed to the PR office.
As he came out of Mili's cabin, there was a pin drop silence in the office. Shivay chuckled and headed ahead. It is because of the presence of the PR. He always believes in discipline. If he got angry at someone, that one person will be kicked out of the company within a second. So, those who work here know the rules -The higher the pay, the higher the risk is.
"Good Morning, Prince Prithvi," He wishes as he emerged.
"Good morning, Prince Shivay," Prithvi retorted and gestured for him to sit.
"So, Did all the new candidates join the office?" Prithvi asked looking at the file of all new candidates. It is too long. His company always hires a group of new employees through campus interviews. Once the new candidates got skilled, he transferred them to his overseas branches. As per their skills.
Malvika is very talented and the topper of the University. She has a brilliant mind and she is the best hacker. She can solve any cyber issues but she keeps this thing a secret.
"Yes," Shivay smiled as he remembers her. He seems happy. But it is a little awkward for Prithvi. He narrowed his eyes and sharply asked, "Prince Shivay, we have a lot of work to do except smiling like mental."
"Sorry," Shivay scratched his neck.
"Let's discuss the new project," Prithvi kept the file of employees aside and opened his laptop.
First of all, Mili explored the laptop given to her. She searches and studies all the data of the company. She learns more about PR. But there was no photograph of him and as per the data, he came back after five years. He came back knowing the worst situation of the pandemic of covid-19. She was shocked to see this. Just lockdowns are withdrawn. Otherwise, this time is very dangerous.
She was studying the further data when the peon came and handed her a big file and ordered her to shortlist its data as soon as possible. She happily accepted.
She has decorated the roses in the flowers vase on her desk. Inhaling the fragrance of roses, she started her work.
The entire day passed jovially. All of them were busy at their work though they had lunch together. After office hours, Mili and Cherry left the premises.
"Mili, Shivay is so handsome, isn't he?" Cherry asked her hugging her back.
"Ohhhhhh! So you are here to flirt with him," Mili mocked.
"Aww! My friend is freaking jealous," Cherry scoffed at her.
"Why would I be jealous?" Mili mumbled and muttered underneath her breathes, "Destiny has snatched the power of flirting buddy. And I'm stuck with an unromantic, arrogant, ridiculous, psychopath Prince of the random kingdom."
"Did you say something?" Cherry asked her again as they are on the bike and she couldn't hear what she said.
"Nothing, My heart. Carry on and date him," Mili said loudly and wished, "Best of luck."
Mili dropped her at her apartment and bid adieu. She sighed, "Well, see you tomorrow. It has been so late."
"Yeah, I understand. Have a good night, see you tomorrow," Cherry hugged her and they left.
Mili was completely unaware that someone is following her and keeping an eye on her.
"Let's kill her," A man in a black uniform said.
"No, we missed the target in the morning, now Prince Prithvi's guards became active. His men must be around her because he knows that she is not safe. If we will be caught, you know him, he won't kill me but left us to die in his prison after beating up badly." Another man advised him.
"You are right, we should observe her schedule, and then we will kill her with a perfect plan," The first man said and they followed Mili on her way.
When Mili reached home, Prithvi was not there. It was expected. Sandhya welcomed her and offered her a mug of hot coffee. She laid on the resting chair and slept there. She was tired of work today.
Jaisalmer, Rajasthan
"Hukum sa, the prince was attacked," Bhairav informed the king.
Still, the king was calm and silent. Bhairav was shocked, how could the king be so silent? The King used to be anxious when he hears about the prince.
Bhairav was amused, he remained silent for a while and stood bowing his head. He recited the entire incident to the king. The king smirked a little.
"Bhairav, Prithvi got a perfect wife, don't you think?" The king laughed.
"The attack was not to kill my son but it must be to kill the princess," The king sighed and added, "Our enemies became active now. But they don't know how I defeat my prince. He is advanced."
The King laughed and said, "start preparing, I'm going to meet my son and daughter-in-law. It has been a long I have seen them. I want to go and meet them, to spend some time with them."
"Ji" Bhairav bowed and left.
