His Addiction

Chapter 5 ✔

Gina's POV

Jaxon is a grade A asshole, ever since yesterday that he walked into his study as my employer and he found out he was employing me he's been nothing but cold and callous towards me and it's extremely annoying . I know I'm shy on the outside but I'm a total cuss freak on the inside and it takes me being extremely angry or emotionally overwhelmed for it to come out, which happens rarely because I'm mostly alone.

Maybe me getting a job here was plotted by him to make me suffer but the reason is a mystery to me because he really acted differently from when we met the first time or is this how he usually is, I don't even know what to think any more.

When I arrive at Jaxon's mansion, i'm feeling skeptical, nervous and very unsure of myself. I'm wearing an oversized hoodie and a pair of leggings with a pair of worn out converse, to be honest I've never really cared about fashion that much and I'll choose comfort over it any day.

My headphones are plugged in, I let my long midnight black hair down falling down my back to my waist in it's waves. I walk in through the front door only to be greeted by a wet haired sexy shirtless unreadable Jaxon who is coming down the stairs and halts as his eyes lands on mine, while I stand there frozen to a spot as I chew on my lower lip forcing my eyes down as a blush stains my cheeks, in all honesty I don't even know why I am like this.

"G-Good morning Mr Moore." I force out internally cussing myself for stuttering. I mean it's not like I did anything wrong so I don't know why I feel like I was caught doing something I shouldn't be doing after all he is the one that didn't have the decency to put on a shirt, I bring my eyes up to look at him my eyes trailing his naked intricately tattooed torso, before finally landing on his face.

His face is still expressionless as he nods my way while coming down the remaining stairs and getting closer to me, his eyes solely focused on me and my breath hitches at the thought of him coming closer to kiss me but to my surprise he passes by me and then I hear the click of a door.

I release my breath with a huge sigh feeling stupid for assuming something like that. But thinking of it now I see that he did that on purpose because there was enough space in the hallway to pass through but he chose to pass so close to me as if expecting to see my reaction.

Mr Humphreys comes out from one of the doors in the hallway and I immediately regain my composure and greet him, he gives me a uniform to change into and tells me where to get the cleaning supplies that I'll be needing for my work and he stations me to where I'll be cleaning after I get changed.

Few minutes later after struggling to fit into the really small uniform and tying my hair up in a bun, I walk out of the room I was told to change in and lo and behold so is Jaxon walking out of the room he walked in earlier which I assume is the kitchen holding a cup of coffee with his eyes already on me as his eyes meet mine while I am still trying to adjust the very tight and short uniform and again I halt my action.

I honestly can't understand myself, everytime I come face to face with him I lose control of my thoughts and become so aware of myself. Jaxon stares at me expressionlessly for a while and then makes his way up the stairs and I flinch as he passes by close to me for the second time.

I enter into the room where Mr Humphreys said I would find the cleaning supplies to find two older looking women who smile at me and give me a warm welcome as soon as they see me and I try to return their smiles and greet them with the same enthusiasm.

"Hi dear, I'm Lauren." The older of the two women who has dark brown hair and brown eyes and a few inches shorter than I am with crinkly olive skin speaks up. "And this is Carla." She continues pointing to the other blonde woman who is a little bit younger than herself, and has bright blue eyes and fair white skin.

They are wearing the same uniform as me, a black penciled gown with white designs around the neck area, but theirs are of perfect size. " I'm Gina" I say smiling awkwardly as I notice their eyes raking my body with a curious stare. " uh.... Mr Humphreys gave me this but it's kinda small." I say nervously pointing at my uniform.

"Oh don't worry dear, I guess this is the previous cleaner's uniform, yours will be made in no time." Carla says with a charming smile.

"So honey where are you stationed?" Lauren asks putting her cleaning supplies into a mini cart.

"The second floor." I reply looking around for a cart of my own so I can get to work, I see a cart in a corner of the room and grab it as I start putting my own cleaning supplies inside.

Lauren hums and exchange a knowing look with Carla while I stare at them curious as to why they're giving each other the we know what's going on look, well obviously they know something I don't but I couldn't ask questions because I thought that might come off as rude. "Well dear I'm stationed at the ground floor while Carla is stationed at the first floor." Lauren says as we all make our way out the door to our various stations as they call it here which I find weird.

I go up the stairs to the second floor and open one of the doors to find out that it's a bedroom with an all green decor, I'm marveled at the beauty as 8 stare in astonishment before plugging in my headphones and taking out my phone searching through my Nicki Minaj's playlist and click on swalla by Jason Derulo ft Nicki and I start swaying my hips to the beat of the song while I cleaned.

Believe it or not Nicki Minaj is actually my favorite artiste, I start cleaning the coffee table in the room and then I lean down to clean it properly and then I hear someone coughing so I turn back, only to see Jaxon dressed to kill in a grey designers suit trying to stifle his coughing.

I gasp dropping my cleaning rag out of fright and shock. I thought I was alone in the room, did he see me dance? I take off my headphones immediately as I begin to freak out internally and rushing out an apology to which I stutter through really badly while he struggles to regain his composure.

"No... No, i'm sorry that I startled you, I just came to get something from my room and saw how short your uniform is, which I should say really startled me." He says smugly and I immediately turn crimson at the thought that he saw me dance and also saw my uniform rise up almost to my butt level when I leaned to clean the table.

"Well I'm going to have a talk with butler Humphreys and see to it that a new uniform be made for you." He says and I nod my head in obvious agreement, relieved that I would finally get rid of the awfully tight and short uniform. Then he turns and left and I heave a sigh of relief followed by a groan of frustration. He's doing this on purpose to annoy me and he's really beginning to get on my nerves.
