''can I ask why we are currently in the same room with only one bed?'' I looked up at him unamused. He changed his view to the bed before returning his gaze back to me ''it was the last room and this is the only hotel I enjoy staying at when I'm away on business trips'' He clears his throat before speaking again, ''I also never have an assistant with me when I go on these business trips'' He shifts his body round making me face his back and without warning dropping his towel. My eyes shifted downwards before I rushed to turn around facing the wall. "warn me next time" I spoke unamused.

I nudged passed him entering the bathroom before shutting the door and turning the lock. I groaned into my hands, the arrogance of this man causes me to purely despise him and yet my body betrays me in ways I didn't think were possible just because it wants his cock. Why couldn't it crave someone else's, I'd rather boil myself in acid before I let that prick touch me again.

I splashed cold water onto my face allowing myself to wake before brushing my teeth and exiting the bathroom. ''we have a meeting to attend in the afternoon, best get ready now'' Daniel spoke his voice echoing through the room. I let out a huff already starting to hate this trip more, ''okay I'll get ready now then'' I spoke up stripping out of my travel clothes before opening my suitcase and pretty much destroying the order my clothes were in just to find the outfit I needed.

You could see the hotel floor when we arrived and yet now I barely see anything, ''The fuck happened in here?'' He leaned against the doorframe as his eyes roamed the room before stopping on me. ''I was looking for my outfit'' I hummed quietly as I stood up putting on my shoes.

''Right well let's get going the driver is waiting for us we have a reservation'' He spoke lowly turning his back to me. I rolled my eyes as he turned his back before following him to the door exiting the room. We walked silently in the hall me being a slow walker trailed far behind him. Well that and the fact I didn't fancy being too close to him. We entered the lift which just had to close the gap on us making it near enough impossible to be far away from him.

I mentally rolled my eyes as I tapped my finger on the railing attached to the lift growing impatient, finally the ding I longed for as the lift doors opened. He lay out his hand allowing me to exit the lift first which made me smile to myself like a little girl that had just won a teddy bear at some fair. I shook away the smile giving him a nod as a thank you before exiting the lift.

We left the building before entering the car awaiting to arrive at our destination. The drive seemed slow I kept my gaze out the window admiring the view of the city which was filled with tall buildings and the architecture just mesmerising, the sun beamed through the window causing my skin to heat up considering it was summer.

I opened the window slightly allowing the fresh air to breeze through the car, I was taken away from my zoned out space as I heard Daniel's voice next to me, ''This is only the first meeting it isn't too important it mostly includes the first basis of the actual important meeting which isn't for another couple days,

so therefore you don't need to do much just be there and be formal and please do not slap anymore of the executives. As much as I enjoyed watching it I cannot afford to lose people or money because you can't control your anger. Got it?'' His voice seemed gentle though quite demanding.

''understandable, I wont raise my hand to any other men unless I absolutely need to'' I gave him a smile before shifting my gaze back to the city. I wonder what the night life is like in a place like this. I zoned back out as I thought of different things and finally we arrived at out destination.

We entered some restaurant which I'm assuming the meeting was placed, I continued to trail behind Daniel following his every footsteps. The restaurant was quite busy leaving me to be anxious, I got closer to Daniel feeling slightly more safer he was in front of me. I kept my gaze hard on the flooring as the waiter took us to a separate room of which the meeting was being held.

We walked into the room which was filled with quiet chatter some men laughing their attention being off the door as Daniel walked in, Most men quieted down when he entered I found quite amusing it was like watching a pack of dogs submit to just some singular man.

Well I suppose he's not just some singular man, he's powerful and rich so I'm not too surprised that older men and some younger submit to him so easily. 

It was clear that Daniel was respected by this whole room and honestly probably the whole city, he built and empire at such a young age.... he has amassed immense wealth and influenced so many. Though he is one big company he has created so many more opportunities for smaller companies to grow along side with him. He's smart and skilled which is very clear.

Of course I wouldn't say any of this to his face he's arrogant enough as it is but I do admire his hardships even if he is an asshole.

The men stood in a line facing the table waiting for Daniel to be seated before following suit. Daniel looked at me pointing at the seat with his eyes telling me to sit down, great I have to sit next to him. I mentally rolled my eyes as I sat down laying my notepad and pen down in-front of me. I cleared my throat keeping my gaze hard on my notepad.

We sat for over an hour the meeting continued on for a while. Loads of idea where passed around as Daniel spoke about expanding the company's operations into new markets, and businesses around it especially the smaller ones that he owned. I wrote down as much as I could as always only things I thought were important.

This meeting went on longer than I thought it would.... A few more hours had passed and by now my ass had gone numb in my chair my eyes felt heavy. I don't do well with social interaction and this shit has drained me quicker than I would be running on a treadmill. I let out a subtle yawn and finally Daniel had said his goodbyes giving the old men handshakes and all that professional formal stuff that men do.

I followed him out the door letting out another yawn before we exited the building entering the car making our way back to the hotel.
