Under Control

Ch 5: So It Begins

Amilia pov:

"No way!"

"Shhh!"

"Has anything else happened?!" Max sipped his milkshake, he had wide eyes at my confession.

"No, she's been busy all week. When there is a moment for us to talk about it, someone interrupts it." I sip my tea irritated. Is it so hard to get 1 minute with her?!

"Are you guys gonna date?" He looked excited but I laughed him off.

"Fuck no. At best I'll just fuck her." The waiter came and dropped the bill off to us.

"Aw, you guys would look cute together." He grabbed it and paid, I wasn't gonna stop him.

"Gross. Everytime I'm around her I want to strangle or punch her." The image of her cocky smile pissed me off.

"Sounds like love to me." He chuckled. Getting up we left the restaurant and headed back to work.

There are three things I know. 1, I'm not dating that asshole. 2, I'm gonna try and manipulate that son of a bitch, see how much money I can get out of it. 3, use her as my booty call. If all goes well then these should be easy to accomplish.

Saying goodbye to Max I take the elevator up to my floor. Going to my office I look over some papers, scheduled some meetings for her and fucked off for a good 45 minutes.

Since our little fiasco there hasn't been much work, it was about the same amount as when she was never here. That gave me ample time to do things I liked or nothing at all. Sadly this did also leave me bored and needing some sort of entertainment.

Thinking maybe now was a good time as any I leave my office and head for hers. Knocking and letting myself in I caught her reading a book at her table… with three people standing in front of it?

"Oh, bad timing I guess." I went to leave but a familiar voice called out.

"Amilia! How's it going, pretty lady?" Damien waved me over despite me trying to leave.

Rolling my eyes I got closer and was pulled into a sideways hug from the tall guy. Looking at the other 2 I noticed the 'bodyguard' guy side eyeing me. There was a redhead between them with a very judgemental look on her face.

"You're all dismissed." She waved a hand at the three.

"But we didn't-" 

"I said dismissed, Lilith." She glanced her eyes up at her. I felt a shiver at the look she gave to the woman.

With a huff she dragged the tall blonde and Damien away with her. He waved a happy goodbye to me before the door shut, leaving her and I alone.

"Who's the blonde?" I looked back at her. She closed her book and chuckled.

"Axe. He's a nice guy." Placing said book on the desk she got into her lazy position. Foot on knee with face in palm.

"So, is there something you need, Princess?" The words made my stomach tighten, why the fuck does she have to sound hot.

"I wanted to talk about what happened." Pushing my thoughts away I sat myself on her desk, crossing my legs perfectly.

"Did you now? Have you figured it out?" She pulled her lip between her teeth, eyes devouring me with hunger.

"Yeah I did. I don't want anything but sex and money from you." Might as well be blunt, who knows what a woman like her would do if I beat around the bush.
