-NATALIE POV-

I sit in the kitchen and drink coffee as I go through my e-mails. Layla walk into the kitchen and says as she walks to the coffee machine "Hey sweety, how did the interview go yesterday, you kind of disappeared last night and I couldn't ask?" I look at her and say as I close my laptop "It was bloody great, Love; I am very positive that I will get the job. Carter is really handsome and he is very impressed with me and he is a bloody arrogant bastard." She turns around shocked at me "What did you just say? I have never heard you speak like that about anyone before, let alone a handsome man." I put my coffee cup down and sigh as I look at her

I say as I shake my head "I'm sorry, Love; he just got under my nerves. I have never met a man who can rattle my chains as much as that bloody bastard can." She chuckles and says as she walks to me and sits down by me "Oh, Nat, he can't be that bad, I am sure you are just over reacting, sweetheart." I look at her and she says "Alright, tell me about the interview." I look at her and sigh and I tell her everything.

She sits there laughing her ass off. I am glaring daggers at her. She says as she looks at me "Oh my God, I can't believe this, finally you meet your match. He is so perfect for you. You finally meet someone who can challenge you as you have always challenged the other men. No man has ever been able to peak your interest like Carter Ciantro has." I sigh and continue to drink my coffee. I say to her as I put my cup down again "It's not bloody funny, Layla; I don't know about him, there is something about him that I can't quite put my finger on. He is just so; so... oh my fucking God, I can't handle this, he is bloody driving me fucking insane."

She is about to say something, when Mike walks in as he says "Oh honey, I'm home." He walks up to her and kisses her "So, what are you two lovely ladies talking about?" Layla says as she looks at me "Well, Natalie was just telling me about how amazingly well her interview with the handsome owner of Ciantro Corporations went." Mike looks at me and says "Oh really, since when does Natalie Harper talk about men?" I look at him and say "Since one got on my bloody nerves and said as soon as he hires me, he is going to kiss the hell out of me." Mike looks at Layla and then at me "Look Natalie; I am sure you are excited about all of this, but I am sure there are other companies who would be very happy to have you as one of them. I don't think Ciantro corporations would be perfect for you. Carter is a dangerous man." Layla says as she looks at Mike "Mike, sweety, don't be like that. Natalie, don't listen to him." I look confused at them.

I say as I smile "Layla it's okay. Mike, Love; I know you are worried about me, but I am not afraid of Carter, I want to bloody punch him, but I can handle myself. I know exactly who the hell Carter is, how much he makes, how successful he is. And I know exactly who the hell he is." Layla frowns at me "Than why did you go for the interview?" I smile at her and say "Because I want to work there, if I work for Carter than I will build a very bright future for myself." They look at each other and say in unison "She is stubborn." I smile at them and say "Don't worry too much about me, Love; you know very well that I can take care of myself. Carter doesn't know what's going to hit him."

Layla says as she smiles at me "Well I have an idea, why don't we go out tonight to celebrate; we can go to Inferno's, what do you say?" I think about it and say "Yeah, why not? Let's go to the club tonight." Layla smiles at me and we both look at Mike "So, can we?" Mike looks at her and says "Yes, baby, we can go to the club tonight." Layla says excited as she stands up and grabs my hand "Come on, you have to help me with my hair, make-up and my outfit." We go to her room and I help her out. I pick out a beautiful blue dress; Mike's favorite color, with beautiful black peak-a-boo toe shoes and a beautiful sliver necklace. After she showers I curl her hair for her and do her make-up in a smoky manner with silver and navy blue.
