I watch as they flirt in front of everybody, and for some reason, I feel agitated. But I brush it off, and stride back into my office. Just as I'm about to sit down and enjoy my short break, Nevaeh and Alejandro walk in, all lovey-dovey.

"Sir, do you need me to assist you with anything else?" Nevaeh asks. I feel like she's up to something but I ignore the feeling.

I stare at her, while Alejandro is exchanging their numbers.

"Yes, actually." I say, an idea suddenly popping into my head. "Could you assist me in kicking Alejandro out of my office?" Their flirting already makes me feel nauseous, and I didn't need it in my office either.

Al abruptly lifts his head, his gaze coming to mine. "You're kicking me out again? What's your deal?" He paces toward me. I shift my eyes to Nevaeh's, completely ignoring him.

She scoffs, staring at me. "What is wrong with you?" She asks, giving me the nastiest glare she could muster.

She clearly thought she was intimidating me but she looked stupid.

So I intimidate her instead by approaching her, getting all up in her personal space. I grab her by the arm aggressively. "If you don't comply," I lower my head so my lips were hovering just above her ear, "then you can kiss this job goodbye."

She frees her arm from my grasp and backs away from me. "You're crazy."

"I can be crazier." I counter, closing the remaining space between us.

Then, Alejandro decided to stop standing there for decoration when he rushes toward me and pushes me away.

"You need to calm down." he says, placing an arm over Nevaeh's abdomen, so that I couldn't pass the 'border' he'd made between me and her. "Why are you acting like this?"

Ignoring his question, I raise a brow. "Just warning her of you." I step closer, so that he has to look up at me. "Do you want to tell her or should I?"

When he doesn't back down, I decide to tell her. "He will trick you into falling in love with him, date you, use you then break your heart and take whats little left of i-"

Then, its like something in him snapped, because he launches at me, grabbing me by my collar and pushing me up against my wall.

I throw a punch and he immediately lets go of me, caressing his face. I glance over at Nevaeh, and she looks terrified.

Before I could say anything to her, she grabs her bag and rushes out the room. I try to chase after her but I'm stopped by Alejandro, as he clutches his nose with blood dripping on my floor.

"Don't fuck this up any more than you already have," he snarls, before turning on his heel and exiting my office, making sure to slam the door, extra hard.

Fuck.

I grabbed my bag and left the office. What the hell was going on? Two grown ass men boxing in the office?

I was just about to leave the building through the automatic glass sliding doors, when I hear Alejandro calling my name.

I don't bother to turn around or reply, as I pick up my pace. I didn't want to speak to any of them at the moment, but Alejandro doesn't get the memo when he breaks into a sprint, approaching me. Why can't I be left alone?

I speed up even more before I'm grabbed by the wrist and pulled back with a great amount of force.

Frustrated, I turn around, face to face with Alejandro. "Look, I know I went a bit far by lunging towards him, but don't believe a word that comes out of his mouth." He explains, desperate for me to believe him.
