The Inevitable: Billionaire Love Story Book 1

One Night Stand

Chapter 1

It's been two years since the day that I walked out of that hospital room. It's been two years since I've started working at McElroy Enterprises. It's been two seconds since my boss stepped off of the elevator. I stood up and went by his side and started reading him his schedule for the day.

"You have a meeting at 12:00 with James, a lunch meeting at 1:30 with Mr.Vanderbilt, and a company meeting with the department of the Gala Committee. Your coffee is on your desk, the Jameson Files have been filed, and the contracts that need to be signed are on your desk as well."

" Thanks Darla, I knew there was a reason I hired you." He said. Darla? Really?

"It's Carla, Mr.McElroy." I said to the closed door of his office.

About ten email sending minutes later my intercom buzzed. I pressed the button and Mr.McElroys husky voice filled the room.

"Starla, my office now." I silently fumed and clenched my teeth.

What kind of boss doesn't even remember their own employees names. An arrogant, pompous, jack-ass. That's who. I stood up grabbing my pad and pen and walked to his office. I knocked softly and walked in when I heard a brief 'come in'. I sat down in one of his comfy chairs and lifted my pen ready to write down whatever he was about to say.

"I need dinner reservations at an Italian restaurant, a charcoal Armani sent to my flat, and send Jennifer some flowers, and tell her I'll pick her up at 8:00."

" Jennifer? Don't you mean Jessica?"

"Ah, yes. Knew it started with a J. That's all I need for today. When your task are complete you may leave."

"Of course Mr.McElroy, have a nice weekend."

I walked to my office and made his reservations, and called the floral shops and ordered the flowers to be sent to Jessica's address. I grabbed my bag and blazer, shut down my computer and walked to the elevator.

Once I got home I took a shower and washed my hair. I promised my best friend Mel I'd go out with her tonight. I got out wrapped myself In a towel and walked out of the bathroom into my walk-in closet. I picked out a cute black dress, and black pumps. I curled my hair and put on eyeliner and mascara, and Lipstick. I grabbed my black clutch and put my phone and lipstick in it.

I walked out of my apartment after locking it and drove all way to the club where I was supposed to meet Mel. I walked in and looked around for Mel. I spotted the familiar red head talking to some guy. I decided to start off the night with a little fun.

"Mel? I promised Ryan to keep his fiancé in check, oh who's this?" The guy looked disgusted.

"You're getting married and you're hitting on me? I feel bad for the guy." He walked away without another glance and I couldn't hold it in anymore, I burst out laughing. One more look at Mels face and I burst out laughing even more.

"You're cruel you know that?" She said.

"Oh you know you love me lets dance."

I dragged her to the dance floor and we started dancing together. We danced through a couple of songs and then decided to go get a drink. Or a couple of drinks. Four Vodkas and 3 tequilas later we were on the dance floor again.

Mel had run off with some guy and promised to call me in the morning. I however stayed and danced some more. Until I felt hands on my waist. I turned around and looked up into the eyes of my harasser, and my breath caught in my throat. He was Gorgeous. Jet black hair and beautiful Amber eyes and totally kissable lips. So I kissed them.

And that people was my first one night stand.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

When I tried to open my eyes the next morning I immediately closed them. My head was pounding and there was this weight holding me down. I attempted to open my eyes again and blinked a few times to focus my vision and find out we're I was. Once I was aware of my surroundings I jumped up from the bed. My eyes were probably about to pop out of my head right now. But that wasn't important. What matters is my naked boss laying down in the bed sleeping. I had sex with my boss? Oh my Gosh. I am so fired.

I slid on my dress and grabbed my shoes, and took one last look at my boss. One thing could fix this situation, run and pray that he forgets what happened. By the time I got home my feet were killing me and I barely managed to catch my breath. I walked into my apartment to the smell of bacon. I set down my bag and shoes and walked into the kitchen to Mel cooking breakfast in my kitchen.

"Mel? What are you doing here, weren't you with that guy last night?" Her faced scrunched up as if she was recalling a horrible memory.

"I went to take a bathroom break and when I came back out he was making out with some guy. And what kind of person would I be if I didn't take care of my best friend."

I would have laughed at the first part if my head wasn't pounding. She passed me two aspirins and a glass of water, and returned to cooking.

"Breakfast should be ready in a sec."

I hummed in response and tried to ease some pain by rubbing my temples. My mind wandered back to Mr.McElroy. Did he wake up yet? Did he know it was me? Is he going to fire me? I need this job.

"Carla! Gosh. I've called your name like fifty times. What's up with you?" Mel slid a plate in front of me and I started eating in attempt to ignore her questions.

"Carls? What happened last night? Who were you with?" I choked on the eggs I was eating and Mel hurried to my rescue with a glass of water and a pat on the back. Mel had always thought my boss was hot, and that we would eventually end up have sex on his desk Like any other boss would his secretary. She's psycho I tell you.

"What? No one." I lied.

"So you just slept in your car the whole night?"

"No. I was this guy I don't know who he was."

She just looked at me with narrowed eyes and came closer.

"What are you doing?" I asked as she was getting closer.

"Who were you with last night Carls and don't lie to me. And I know when you're lying. Just tell me."

I looked down to my plate and up at Mels waiting face. I looked down again and sighed.

"I had sex with Mr.McElroy." I mumbled.

"I'm sorry, what was that? I didn't hear you."

I repeated what I told her the first time but this time she screeched in response.

"You banged Mr.McHottie? How was it? Was he big?" She asked.

"I really don't remember anything. I just woke up with him wrapped around me and ran."

She just stared in disbelief. "You ran? Why?"

"He's my boss he could fire me and I'd be homeless."

"Oh Carls. Running has made it ten times worse. If it was good it shouldn't have been a problem. Maybe he's in love with you."

I ignored her comments and stood up to go take a shower.

As I was walking away I heard her say. "You guys were made for each other. You'll see Carla Monroe. You'll see."

I sighed and continued walking to shower. I gave up on love. No matter how attracted to my boss I was It just wouldn't work.
