** ANYA'S POV **
He unbound me and pulled my back to his chest. He kissed my temple gently. "I'm so glad I found you. You are everything I need, everything I could ever want. You please me and your body's response pleases me. I enjoy playing with you."
I sigh "Thank You, Master. I enjoy how you play with me" I snuggle closer to him in his arms feeling the warmth radiating from his body.
"Sleep now" It doesn't require a response so I don't answer and just do as he orders. He always gets the last word.
That, for me, would be a perfect 'ordinary' day. Of course, perfect 'special' days would be unique, challenging, and all at his whim.
My morning like most mornings had been hectic in the office. Jumping from one task to the next. Lately, it felt like every day all she was doing was trying to play catch up.
The new applicant was supposed to be taking on some of the extra work I had been handling, but first I had to train her. The new assistant had to be able to perform her tasks with the same excellence as I do.
Not an easy task, but I always did liked taking on new challenges. Perhaps that is why John was always more than pleased with me. He is confident that I could handle anything he threw my way.
I loved my work, so I was never one to slack. I was sitting in front of my computer remembering how my husband took me this morning. My skin was still sensitive as he again did not let me have my orgasm like every morning. Just the thought of it makes my entire body throb with need and distracts me from my tasks. Exactly like right now.
I snapped out of my beautiful daydream when a loud ping signaled from my computer. My eyes desperately try to re-focus on the alert message displayed on the monitor as I try to catch my breath and regain my balance. John had a scheduled meeting in 15 minutes that I needed to prep his office for.
I had no time to waste, everything had to be completed on time as per his instructions. I was standing in John Ray's cabin right now as I waited patiently for him to examine my work. John's lips curled into a sharp smirk when he finished examining my work on the contract I had drawn up for 'BULLCORP FINANCE', which calmed my nerves down a bit. "Wow, this is excellent work Anya, I see you have done your research. You never cease to amaze me. I am glad that I didn't have to fire you for sleeping with me".
"Thank you, John and I am glad I kicked your ass when you tried to seduce me", I blushed, remembering what I was thinking just before coming into his office. I made a mental note to come back to it and teach my assistant to walk in high heels for work. As John would not be pleased with such a clumsy display, especially with business associates in the office, it would be a terrible reflection on the office, more importantly on John, as well as a horrible example of my managerial skills.
Swinging open the large office doors, I led my assistant into the archives room of the office. A large room with giant bookshelves holding thousands and thousands of files and paperwork shielded people from the giant floor - to - ceiling windows looking out over the city. To the left of the office was where most of the work would be done.
Being dominated at home by my husband didn't dampen my spirits in the office, in fact, I never felt my job to be stressful or painful when compared to the pain I was receiving in my very own bedroom so it was easy for me to give my all to my work.
Although I never dominated anyone, I felt nice when I would put my foot down putting John in his place. I found it amusing. John tried to seduce me more than once but stopped when I made it a point to let him know that I was one tough cookie to crack, which he was glad for, coz now he had an assistant who stayed for 3 years with his firm and was excellent at her job to a point where he depended on her, those were his exact words.
I had only one friend at work, who also happened to be my childhood friend Carmen Bale. We joined the firm at the same time. Only I joined as John's assistant, whereas Carmen joined as HR.
** JOHN'S POV **
Being known as a playboy, I made sure I banged every girl that threw herself at me. I was looking out at the floor-length glass wall with my hands tucked in the pockets of my dress pants lost in my thoughts when my phone buzzed, taking me out of my thoughts.
Me – "Hey love"
Melina – "Hey baby. I just called to check if you are done with your meeting coz, I was planning of having lunch at this new restaurant 'Café ELazza' that's opened up 2 blocks from your office".
'Shoot... the meeting! Where is Anya? It's not like her to forget about today's meeting'
Me – "no baby the meeting starts at 12 so I will not be able to make it for lunch today. Can we go there tomorrow or how about we go there this weekend?"
Melina – "Ok baby, then it's a date!"
Me – "Alright it's a date".
After I was done with the call with my girlfriend, I pinged Anya, seeing that she had not come to me with the files needed for today's meeting, yet.
It's been 3 years since she joined as my assistant, which is the longest anyone has worked as my assistant, as I banged every one of my previous assistants within a week of them joining my office.
Anya kept refuting me from day one, which was kind of refreshing for me. When I knew there was no point in chasing her, I stopped and from then on things have never been better. Not only would she get the assigned work done, more times than not she would surpass my expectations. I am glad to have Anya as my assistant as I never needed to tell her twice about a thing. In fact, I never had to ask her for anything, she would always be one step ahead of me.
She is the only assistant who is able to keep her job for as long as she does. Everyone told her that she would not last for more than a month when she had joined. They said she would also be one of the casualties of my whims and fancies, but Anya always made sure to put me in my place when I would try to flirt with her during the first few months of her joining the firm, working as my assistant.
She came into my office dressed in an elegant yet sexy pencil dress that hugged her body like a second skin. She doesn't seem to notice the effect she has on men around her as she walks around oblivious to the hungry stares from the men around. She handed me the papers for the contract. 'These are very thoroughly detailed'. I told her how I genuinely felt and boy was I glad coz this was the first time I saw her blushing and she looked beautiful.
As she walked away in her high heels, Anya's hips swayed elegantly from side to side, catching my attention. Despite her urgency, she never skipped a beat in displaying a higher state of grace and elegance. Her assistant, on the other hand, was struggling to keep up in her high heels. Obviously, she spent more time in comfortable work shoes and had not learned the finer points of walking in high heels.
Melina and I have known each other for 2 years now and, honestly, I was kind of getting annoyed with her wanting to control my life with every opportunity she gets. She even redecorated my room for Christ's sake. No one, and I mean NO ONE, ever dared to touch my things or change them, but I let her, and now it was becoming too much.
My meeting with the clients went fine as they agreed to our terms, 'another deal closed successfully'. I was back in my office going through files when there was a knock on my door. "Come in". My eyes were still fixed on my laptop as I was going through the contract files.
"Hey, John!" it's my childhood friend.
"Robert! What are you doing here? Don't you have work to do?"
He plopped his ass on the couch. "Awe don't be like a grumpy old grandpa, John. I have got my team working on the stuff you need for your new project, your very own little paradise!"
You see, Robert is my go-to guy when I purchase property for personal use. I had asked him to get me a place with a private beach and stuff, so I am guessing he's here to show me how far the work has come along. "So, when can I expect it to be ready for me to actually start to live in?"
"Here," he handed me his iPad, showing me the pictures of the mansion.
"Man! This is freaking amazing, it's unreal! I can't wait to go down there."
"It will be ready in 5 months, a little later after your birthday, sorry about that!" he raised a brow with a hint of amusement when I scrolled to the picture of one of the rooms "is that according to your taste?" I heard him ask, his tone indicating that he knows how much I love everything they have done with this one-room.
"I love it, man! It's even better than what I had expected". Seeing that my money was put to good use, I was happy.
He just made my day. Just then there was a knock on my office door. "John" she turned her attention to my friend "hey Robert".
"Hi Anya, you look even more beautiful than the last time" my stupid friend then turned his attention to me. "How are you not all over her man?" I looked up to see Anya glaring at him.
"If I would've been all over her, she would not have been here for 3 years you moron! She is that one girl that got away". I saw Anya roll her eyes and shake her head.
"Mr. Martinez of ENZO CORP., your 1'o clock, he is here waiting in conference room 2 and these are all the files which I sent to your email yesterday. Please tell me you went through the files".
Wanting to tease her a little, I put on a blank face "Ughhh... what's the content again?" her jaw dropped while her eyes looked like they were going to fall out of their sockets 'I never get bored of getting a rise out of her'.
"You've gotta be freaking kidding me! How many times..." I couldn't stop the smile that was threatening to turn into a burst of full-blown laughter and eventually ended up laughing along with Robert when her face turned red, she threw a file at my face "ARGHHH... I HATE YOU!" she turned to walk away 'Damn, can't have her pissed before the meeting'.
I got up from my chair, ran up to her, gripping her wrist. " OK! Sorry! My one and only lovely assistant... please?" she shook her hand free, glaring daggers at me.
"FINE, but if you pull this stuff again I swear you will regret it".
I turned to Robert and told him to let me know if he needed anything else and also told him to go ahead with what he had in mind, as his choice exceeded my expectations as always.
Mr. Martinez is a very old client of my company and is a very respectable man who built his business empire from the ground up. He is also the one who I look up to with regard to doing business. He says things for what they are without sugar-coating them, unlike many others whom I have done business with, so I am glad that he is actually here.
'My nightmares still come every night but it's these little moments I have with people I can trust that are the things that make me feel normal!'
