Lucifer

1: Meeting Him

Ava's POV

"Emily.... get off of me. I have to get to this interview" I groan as I once more try to push my best friend off of me. When she learnt I had applied for an internship at the Knight Group of Companies she practically jumped on me because she got offended that I didn't tell her when I applied in the first place.

"How could you do this to me ? How could you betray me like that, Ava ? I thought we were friends ?" She fake sniffles.

"Well if you don't get off of me right now, Em, I am never gonna get there. I will talk to you, I promise just please don't make me late for this interview" I beg.

"Okay"

As soon as she let me go I flew out the door to get a cab. After 5 minutes of searching for a cab I was finally about to give up and call Joey, my ex-boyfriend and a friend, to give me a ride. But as like a miracle a cab stopped in front of me and the window rolled down.

"Where to, miss ?" The cab driver's gruffy voice called out.

"Knight Building" I replied.

His eyes widened for a second but he got over it and motioned for me to get inside. I quickly got in not wanting to waste any time since my interview was at 9:00 and it was already 8:50. The people who work there, they are very punctual. The company pays amazing. But to get a job let alone an internship there is a little more than just difficult.

"Do you work there, miss ?" He asked once we started driving.

"No. An interview for an internship"

"Well that company is really big. I hope you make it through"

"Thanks..."

"The name's Marvin, ma'am"

"Marvin"

"We're here"

I look down at my watch. 9:02. That's not too bad is it ? I hurry out after murmuring a 'thanks' to Marvin and leaving a big tip. I open the glass doors and hurry to the receptionist.

"Interview for the interns ?" I ask.

She eyes me up and down for a minute then look in my eyes disgustingly.

"There are the elevators. 26 floor. Meet the receptionist there and he will guide you"

"Okay. Thanks"

I hurry towards the elevators when I heard her say something along the lines of 'stupid, desperate college girls'. But I was already inside and too late to care. I literally jumped in and pushed the button on the 26 floor and took a deep breath. I know I am late, but they wouldn't mind, right ? I mean there are gonna be several more people before me and it would take time to interview them all, right ?

I take some more deep breaths when the voice I hear stops all supply of air to my lungs.

"First day ?"

I thought I was all alone in this elevator. I never noticed him. I steadily look back. And there stood the most gorgeous and breathtaking creation of God and all mankind. He had a strong and well defined jaw. Broad shoulders, bulky arms that seem to be capable to lift anything. Well defined torso, you could literally see through his shirt eyes that seem to hold answers to all the questions of the world. I clear my throat when I realise I was checking him out in an elevator where he probably knew I was doing that.

"Umm..... no. I came here to apply for an internship" I was surprised at how strong that came out to be.

"Aren't the interviews at 9:00 ? Your 5 minutes late now" he says and steps towards me.

"I uh.... got caught up... in something" or someone.

"What's your name ?" Why am I answering his questions again ?

"Look I don't know you. Okay ? So let's just stop at that. I don't want to answer any questions" I say and turn back around to avoid his proximity and his intense gaze that is burning holes in my brain right now. I feel a hand on my forearm and I am shoved to his chest. He grips harder and I stand on my tip toes to reach him but he is still an inch or two higher then me. I can feel his whole torso against my stomach.

I am not that innocent, a certain part of his anatomy is pressed directly at my core which results it in pooling inside my panties. I gasp.

"I said. What. Is. Your. Name ?" He grits. Not wanting to anger him further I reply him.

"Ava.... Ava Thompson. Please let go. You're hurting me" he immediately lets me go and his eyes wide with a little horror before he covers it up. The sound of the elevator tell me it's my turn to get off. I turn to go but before I do I step out and turn around. I never asked his name.

"What is your name ?" I ask emphasizing on the your.

He smirks, "Lucifer.... Lucifer Knight" and then the elevator doors close leaving me a mess of emotions and confusion.

Oh hell. I just met the CEO of Knight Group of Companies and checked him out without any shame.
