Desire

One

I was nervous. Lacey just informed me that Mrs. Calloway had called me in her office.

Mrs. Calloway was a woman of great sofistication. She was the CEO of Campbell & Co.
One of the greatest companies there was in New York. She never called anyone in her office unless she were to fire you or promote you. I hope it was the latter.

I, Victoria Blake, had been working in this company since I was 22, three years ago. I wasn't that popular in my work. But people were beginning to know me in this company.

I hesitantly knocked on the teak door.

"Come in." I heard a voice say.

I opened the door and saw Mrs. Calloway sitting at her desk. The room was big, designed with a soft peach color and minimum furniture. French glass were located behind her desk.

"Hello Mrs. Blake. I can see the surprise on your face. I will explain this sudden call. Please sit down."

I slowly walked to a chair that was situated in front of her desk.

"I have heard a lot of your work. I am impressed. "

I smiled nervously. "Thank you."

"Mrs. Blake, have you heard of the Maxwell company?"

Of course I had. That was our rival company. We conpete against each other.

I nodded.
She smiled faintly. "Well, I have a job for you."

"What!" Lacey almost screamed.

I shushed her.
"I know! My same reaction!"

"I can't believe it! I mean,  she might just send you for suicide! That's like spying on their company! So what did you say?"

I sighed.
"I agreed. I need the money Lace! Ever since my parents died, I've been doing things on my own. "

She smiled sympathetically.
"I understand. So basically you have to go undercover, get important information,  pass it on and make sure you don't get caught."

I nodded.
"For about two months."

"Oh well. I believe that you would be able to go through that. You are the toughest girls I know." Lacey said, putting her hand on my shoulder as confort.

I smiled." Thanks Lace. Well I better get going home. It's a little late."

I waved and stepped out on the busy streets of New york, my home.

The crowd carried me foward and my eyes spotted my favorite coffee shop.

The doors jingled as I stepped in, the warm air blasting my face. It was November and the air was chilly.

I stepped in line and waited for my turn.

"Can I get a Caramel Macchiato?"

The cashier was May, one of my friends. She knew me as I was a regular customer. Basically everyone knew me.

"That will be $2.50 Vic." I handed her a five.

"Keep the change." I smiled.

I walked to the counter where I was to pick my drink from.

What happened next was awful.
I suddenly felt a hot burning sensation on my chest. I gasped as I looked at my white blouse that was stained. My red lacy bra could be seen. Oh my god.

I looked up to see a pair of blazing blue eyes looking at my chest.

"My eyes are up here mister!" I growled.

I snatched the tissues he was holding and delicately began to wipe the coffee. There was no way that this stain would go.

His gaze hardened.
"Don't speak like that to me."

"Well then watch where you are going!" I retorted.

He narrowed his eyes at me and I did the same.

"Victoria Blake! Your order is here." I heard Niall say.

I snapped out of the stare down and reluctantly headed to the counter after giving him a look that said -'This isn't over'

When I reached home, I quickly took a shower to get rid of the sticky mess.

My apartment wasn't big. It was small, with one bedroom, a bathroom and a kitchen. There was a small living area with my tv. The owner of this apartment was a middle aged man and he had nicely given this place to me. I was very grateful.

I checked my phone to see that Mrs. Calloway had emailed me that I was to go to the Maxwell Company the next day.

It was going to be a long day tomorrow.
I climbed on my bed and dreamed of blue eyes.
