CASSANDRA POV

A week has past swiftly where grace is preparing me for the job interview. Which is buying me the clothes and arranging the wanted paper. It turns out the interview for a company called formonix it's a tech company proffesion in making Aguminted limbs.

And the owner is Artemis knight who built this company from scratch and himslef having a PhD in biomedical engineering. he is basically a genius in his major.

He doesn't sound so bad. Right? Apparently everyone who was hired for the position didn't last more than a month before he/she quit Thier job with no possible explanation. that what makes me nervous. People say that they started making impossible points in Thier contract so it's more hard to quit easily.

"I am scared" I exclaim standing in front of the big company building with it's shiny glass windows and fancy people rushing in and out of it Carrying papers or speaking on their phones.

"Don't be, we prepared everything last night remember?" Grace calms me. She was a big help for me. "Thank you grace your the bestest friend ever" I hug her. "Okaaaay. now go" she smiles and pushes me into the doors of the building. " And don't forget be confident okay" yells from the outside as I walk up to the reception where a brunette is chewing a gum and typing on the computer loudly. "Umm excuse me" I hesitantly say. But she doesn't answer or even budge. "EXCUSE ME" I yell. Her eyes slowly moves away from the monitor and stares at me up and down with disgust. Wtf?!

She pops her gums and fakes a smile "yes?" That's just Lovely. " I am here for a job interview" I declare. "Sorry we are not hiring cheap waitress"
" Ah no it's for an accountant" I say stressing on the t. "Ninth floor. First office you see" She tells me with a bored look. "Thank you" I push a smile. "Have a nice day" is thankfuly the last thing she says before going to whatever she was doing. Like I care

Great. Just great. If this is the receptionist then what is the company is like. I hate this already. I push the elevator button way too many times out of anger. "Woah I think it got the point" a hand comes and removes my hand. I look and I see a handsome man with beautiful amber eyes and brown hair that's slicked back. He is wearing a dark green tshirt and a black pants and my eyes catches the black beadnova necklace. My face goes red when I realize that he is still holding my hand and I was clearly checking him out. I snatch my hand back and looks directly at the closed elevator doors. I heard a soft chuckle but I don't do anything. I pray that the elevator arrive faster but that means he will get on with me.

Oh dear lord please no. The elevator arrives and I get in Fast and without thinking I push closing door button and the floor. I don't know why. I just want to disappeare from next to him. But the door doesn't close and he is staring at me with a smug expression. God. "You pushed the hold button" he points out and steps in pushes the button that I was supposed to and steps off. The doors closes slowly and I stare at his amber eyes as it disappears. "Cheeses and crackers! mother of Jesus! Auuugh" I yell at myself. Why do I have to be that stupid in the worst times. Like he is literally a Greek god and obviously thinks that I am a joke.

I don't care. I do not care. Relax. Relax. Interview. Yes interview. Focus on the interview. The elevator door opens. And I stand there in awe. The dark color and the shiny marble floors are breathe taking. The clicking brings my attention to the desk next to the big double doors. I see a man his Head buried in the computer. "Umm, hello?" I call. his head moves away from the monitor. So I can see him fully. His dark hair and thick eyebrows also his eyelashes that makes jealous. And all The freckles that decorates his face like mine and his gray eyes that stares into my soul and makes me realize how long I was staring. God I need to stop with the staring thing. "Ya?" He says in a weird accent.

"I'm here for the interview" I approach the desk " did you prepare the wanted papers" he asks with a thick accent I think it's German it reminds me where these videos when Hitler was giving an interview in English. Wait. No, that's racist. "Yes, here" I hand it to him. As he scans the elevator doors opens an- "SCHLIEDEN! How is my favorite Secretary. " The person yells. And secretary groans while still scanning my papers ignoring the person who called him. I turn to see who it is and my heart fell to my feet it's the Greek god. I fast turn back around. "Yoho. C'mon are you ignoring me, schlieden" I hear Greek god says as he steps closer and closer until he is right next to me in front of the desk I can feel his eyes on me.

He then exclaims "do you think he is ignoring me on purpose or he is deaf" he was clearly addressing me but I won't risk that little mouth of mine and embarrass myself even more. So I just choose silence. " You too! what is it with you people am I extra annoying today" he says acting surprised. " Like you ever been less " the secretary rolls his eyes. " Here you go Miss Chapman and you can wait over there and we will call you " " thank you, Mr sch-schlieden " I read his name off the name tag and moves away. I hear them speak and say " what are you doing here?"
" To take the files" " couldn't you wait till dinner tonight" is last I hear as I head to my seat.

I see schlieden shove papers in the Greek's stomach and scoff. He smiles and moves away and as he waits at the elevator he winks at me then gets in.  God damnit. I look around and alot of people occupying the seats.
"Okay before we let you in the interview we will hand you a paper with numbers of money a company had been purchasing a type of product but in the last month the money decreased by 30% we want to know how much did the thief steal every month " he explained" and last thing if you answer wrong you will be dismissed " panic held the room "you are given 15 minutes. good luck"they give us the paper. And I start to scan the numbers but I can't find it it's totally clean like if he did steal he wouldn't have stolen in all the months but that's if.....got it!.

" Time is up"
