Chapter 7

"What the hell do you want!?" I asked and shoved his hands. 

"It's already past one a.m and Diane said that we have something to talk about right!?"

"So what!? It is not that urgent!"

"So your job is not important either flirting important!?"

Everyone is already looking at us, even the ones who are walking while the others are taking pictures

"Nothing is flirting with that!"

"Let's go," he said calming himself and opened his car's door. 

I entered the backseat and he started glaring at me and was about to say something, but he just let out a deep breath and ignored it. 

"Why did you do that? And how did you found out my whereabouts?" I asked him as soon as we stepped on his office. 

"You told Diane that you wanted to talk to me to clear things and to change your not appropriate actions to proper." 

"Do you know how to wait, or what is the meaning of the word wait?" 

"I told you I do not waste any time besides I'm your boss, so why would you want me to wait? Do not belittle me." 

I calmed myself before answering. 

I promised them that I won't be disrespecting this man again. 

"Okay, Mr.Sapphirus I'm sorry for being disobedient also for not showing you any respect. I promised that this won't happen again." 

"Call me Brigor," He said ignoring what I said earlier. 

"Pardon?" 

"Brigor, call me Brigor." 

Is he sober? 

"Now." 

"Brigor," I said. 

"Again," He closed his eyes.

What the hell? He's so strange and bipolar. 

"Brigor." 

He let out a deep breath and unclosed his eyes. 

"You can leave now." 

"Thank you." 

Finally! The oxygen there is too low. I feel suffocated every time I'm around him, and it is making me so uneasy. 

"What happened?" My manager asked. 

"I told him that I feel sorry for my inappropriate behaviour." 

"There are some pictures spreading around social media!" Diane said panicking.

"What is it--Holy shit!" 

It's was a picture of me and Rogue then the other one is when I'm arguing with Brigor. 

"What the hell Carol!?" My manager bawled can't believe what he just saw. 

"I'm sorry!" I said covering my face using both of my hands. 

"I told you to be careful and look at what you did again! You are giving us headaches and why are you acting like this Carol? You're seriously giving us a hard time. If I gave up on you I swear you'll reminisce all of what is happening right now and you will seriously regret it" He said, and went outside. 

My tears started to fall down making Diane worried. 

"I'm sorry," I said sobbing. 

"Miss calm down..." said Diane while embracing me. 

"I'm really sorry... I'm sorry for making you all disappointed... I don't know why I am giving you all a hard time." 

"Calm down miss. Yes, you did wrong but it is not the end of the world yet. You still can correct everything by doing proper things besides no one is perfect." 

"Do you think people will disgrace what they saw on social media?" 

"To be honest... Yes, they will but miss you can change things into better." 

"I am so unworthy for this job." 

"No, you are capable for this job miss don't say that. You wouldn't be here if you aren't good enough to deserve this. Just because you made a mistake once doesn't mean you will be repeating it again. You just have to show people that you really are a good person, and that issue has nothing to do with you." 

"But I have been issued twice." 

"Miss... like what I said, the world is not ending yet it is not yet the last part of your story or anyone else's story. You can still do good things, you are a great person always remember that." 

"Thank you so much, Diane you are showing kindness to me every time, but all I gave you is a hard time." 

"It is fine miss as long as you are not hurting me," She said laughing and it made me laughed too. 

"I will remember what you said." 

Diane smiled and hug me. 

"Go to your manager miss." 

I went outside to find my manager and I found him at the library busy with his phone. 

"Hey." 

He did not glance my way, he just continued scanning his phone

"I'm so sorry"

"Do you think sorry can change every errors of yours into proper?" 

"I know the word sorry can not change everything, but my actions can. I promise you I won't be a pain in the ass again and I will do everything to fix the damage I did." 

"Do not make a promise, instead accomplish it." 

"I will do it I swear." 

"Carol, please... I'm begging you don't let this job sink. This is a very big opportunity for us three especially for you. This job will lead you to a better future." 

"Yes, I understand and to be honest I don't know why I am acting like a sick child." 

"Because you are used to being a spoiled brat, who is restless when  she's not given what she wants." 

"Well, it is your fault too though you were spoiling me a lot before," I said and laughed. 

"I am but Mr.Sapphirus is different from me always remember that." 

We suddenly stopped talking because Brigor's secretary showed up to call me. 

"Mr.Sapphirus wants you in his office now" 

I nodded and went to his office. 

"Your secretary said you wanted me to come here. What is it for?" I asked. 

He's in front of his table standing. 

"Look," He throws all of the pictures on his table in front of me. 

It was the pictures on social media about me, his stepbrother and him but there are more photos here. 

"I promise that this won't happen again. I will do everything precisely and professionally. I swear I'll fix these problems. I'm really sorry sir..." I said and knelt down. 

"Stand up," He said "I don't care about those pictures, fix my necktie." 

"What sir?" 

"I told you to call me Brigor, stop being formal." 

He wanted me to respect him but he doesn't want me to address him formally? Is this some kind of joke?

"O-okay, Brigor." 

He is seriously acting so unusual. 

I went near next to him and fixed his necktie. 

"Come closer," He said. 

"W-what?" 

What the fuck is he saying? And why is he acting so weird this looks like it's out of its place. 

"Do you want me to forgive you for all of your sins?" 

Lol, you're not a God to forgive the sinners.

"Yes." 

"Then come closer."

I closed the distance between us.

He unexpectedly caresses my cheeks down to my lips. 

"I like your lips." 

I trembled in fear, he's dangerous this can't be. 

"S-sorry, what?" 

"I want it. It's soft and red as a cherry," He said looking directly at my eyes. 

I cannot believe this. 

He moved so quick to the point that I cannot do anything now that he is kissing me.

It's warm, the feeling is unfamiliar. This is scary this should not happen.

I pushed him away, but he is hard as a rock and he didn't even move an inch he just suppressed his kisses. 

"I'm really sorry." 

"I don't accept any apologies, I don't need loath. I'm not grubby," He said and pulled my waist to kissed me again deeply. 

I just cried silently because I cannot do anything.

I feel cheap and contemptible. 

Why is he doing this to me? I don't have any moral against him. 

I don't want this feeling, I want to end this.

I want to escape and run away from it. 

"Why are you crying? I can taste your tears, it's salty stop it" He stopped to ask. 

I didn't answer him instead I just continued sobbing.

"Hey? What the hell is wrong with you?" 

"I-I hate you... I don't like this, this is not good." 

"Are you rejecting me?" 

"Y-yes." 

He started laughing like what he used to do before when I met him the second time. 

"I did not ask for your affection, so why are you rejecting me?" He asked couldn't prohibit himself from laughing. 

"Y-you are kissing me."

"You saw me having sex with a woman before right? It is not affection, it's just the same as this, what I am doing to you. It's called desire, earthly desire or a strong sexual desire"

My anger is slowly moving inside me wanting to explode and slap him. 

And yes I did slap him so hard and it left a red marked on his face.

"Listen here woman," He said and tightly gripped the back of my neck "Since you are working under me I can do anything to you without complaining about it understood!? You have no rights in here. I am the ruler you all are just below me and you should be idolising me." 

He let go of my neck and pushed me. 

"Now leave! I want you out of my sight understood!? Including your manager and assistant, I want them out of my way. I want you all to suffer and beg for me to bring you all back. Don't let us cross our paths cause you wouldn't like what I'm going to do if that happens and as much as how you wanted to leave this place you cannot do anything. You signed a contract, remember that you can't escape from me and you will always be crawling back to me." 

I run out of his office and his building. 

I just want to leave that place. It feels hell and he is the ruler of that miserable place.
