Lakshmi's P.O.V.

Sitting at my desk I continue to type the letter my "Boss," aka Rishi had ordered me to do before lunch. I thought that I had made it clear, that I didn't want anything to do with him. If he hadn't seen me in the elevator that day I would have been working here peacefully away from him. But no, this craze to talk to me has been flooding his mind, he wanted to talk to me no matter what.

Today is the first day of my job and as soon as I came into the office today I was confronted with the worst news...

"Gather around everybody, I need everyone in the office to please gather around here," Boss said, furrowing my eyebrows I walk towards the front receptionist desk but I was at the very back I couldn't see anything... "Alright, I have two news...one bad, one good."

Everyone gasped, "The good one is that our office has been bought by a very powerful and influential company...the bad news is, is that today will be my last day here because your new boss, who is standing beside me right here will be taking over."

The girls started to whisper to one another, "He's so cute," I rolled my eyes, after what Rishi did to me, I couldn't even think about anyone like that again. "He's hot."

"Hello everyone, I know that it might be scary having a new boss in the building, but trust me when I say this, I am way cooler than Aman." His voice..."I am easygoing, but the one thing that I will not tolerate is disrepecting one another...or disrespect against a woman."

"That's Rishi Oberoi," one of the girls whispered beside me, "His voice, Oh My God, Rishi Oberoi is my boss!"

My body stilled, Rishi? "Now, this is my first day along with many of yours, let's get to work but as you got your offices please make sure to come to introduce yourself to me."

The crowd began to move closer and closer to the front as they greeted Rishi, I kept my gaze down hoping to sneak by, "And what is your name?" He asked almost mockingly, my eyes snapped up to meet his.

Clenching my jaw I tried to keep my anger under control, "Lakshmi,"

"Lakshmi...?"

"Lakshmi Bajwa Sir," Something flashed in his eyes as I said Bajwa...was he expecting that I kept his last name?

Rishi nodded putting his hand out for me to shake, which I refused to take, "Lakshmi," Aman said, "Shake his hand."

Inhaling sharply I put my hand in his, Rishi looked at me smugly pulling em closer, "What do you think? How much longer will you try to run away from me, one day or another you will have to talk to me and I'm not going anywhere until you do."

"Let go of my hand"

"Anything for you Mrs. Oberoi," He said smirking letting my hand ago, glaring at him I storm over to my desk. I am not talking to him.

"Lakshmi, Boss has called you in his office."

Furrowing my eyebrows I say, "But, I am just working on this letter he had given to me,"

"Just go Lakshmi, he's a new boss."

Sighing in frustration I got up heading towards his office, I knock on his door which was wide open, Rishi looked up at me, "Come in," I was about to sit down but, "Shut the door, Lakshmi."

"Why?" I asked almost panicked,

"Because I need to talk to you about something private."

"This is a workspace." I say, "I am not talking to you about anything else other than work."

Rishi squinted his eyes at me before standing up himself, "This is about work," Walking closer to me I backed away, Rishi grabbed the door slamming it shut as he pushed e against the wall beside it, "This is about how this... is supposed to work while we are in this office together."

"L-Let go of me," I stuttered, "This is really inappropriate, I-I am not your wife anymore."

He tilted his head to the side smirking, lazily bringing his hand up he brushed his fingers across my collarbone lifting up my mangalstutra pulling me closer to him by it our lips brushed against one another. My breath hitched, "Just by saying that you don't want to do anything will be doesnt mean relations will break."

My breathing got faster, "You broke it, I-I just broke it from my side too."

Rishi leaned down kissing my neck, my eyes fluttered shut, he hadn't touched me like this before...other than when we fell on the bed, "Malishka was fucking with my head." He said angrily, "Mujhse shaadi karo, mujhse shaadi karo..." (Marry me, Marry me) "She said it over and over again Lakshmi, she didn't let me hear what my heart was saying to me."

Rishi bit down at the junction of my neck and shoulder gasping my body arched against his, "R-Rishi." I whispered, "We are at work."

"The door is locked, I just want to talk to you if you will listen to me." He whispered back, but he was doing a lot more than just talking...

My eyes fluttered shut, this isn't what I wanted to do...this isnt how I wanted to give in...but my heart knows deep down that I still love him, no matter what. Rishi chuckled, "You say you don't want anything to do with me, you say that you hate me..but you still melt in my arms. Lakshmi, I know what I did was wrong, what my family did was wrong...but please...please I just need one more chance."

My eyes fluttered open to meet his tearful ones, "What was your heart saying to you when Malishka was bothering you?"

"It was chanting your name, I-I was getting married to her but my thoughts, my heart, everything was with you, Lakshmi..."

I wanted to give in...God knows I wanted to..."If I was with you, then you would have never done what you did with me...I can't forgive you Rishi..." Pushing him away I fixed my clothes, as he stood there watching me, I unlocked the office door...

"One day or another Lakshmi, I will win you back...I promise."
