I stare at pair of gray eyes in front of me. If I'll be honest, those are the most captivating eyes I've ever seen in my entire life, the way he looks at me feels like he dives through my soul.

Checking him, he's wearing a grey armani suit and a white linen shirt beneath. His hair is messy, but in a very sexy way, his appeal screams authority and danger. I swallowed the imaginary lump in my throat, right now I feel like a 13 years old staring at her senior crush, I blush at the thought. Yup, maybe he's my first non celebrity crush after all.

I sudden thud pulled me out of my fantasy and I shrieked. I looked at Mr. Pitt wide eyes, and he's glaring at me. What did I do now?

"Y-yes sir?" I stammer and he gaze darken. He looks scary.

"Are you deaf?" He snapped

"No sir," I replied quickly. Is he talking to me?

"I've been asking you the same questions five times Miss Wilson."

Five times?! I swear I didn't heard anything! I whispered an apology and and explained myself, telling him I spaced out and it will never happened again. I really need this job, and now I am about to lose it. Mr. Pitt stared at me, his eyes darken as he looked at my lips. Feeling uncomfortable of him staring at my lips, I bit my bottom lip and looked down. I'm not sure if it's my imagination again, but I think I heard him groaned.

"You're hired." He said and I snapped my gaze at him. Really? "You'll start tomorrow, I want you here five in the morning and bring my coffee."

Five in the freaking morning? I looked at him shocked, and he looked backed at me damn serious. Office hours starts at eight, why would he need me five?

"Do you have any question Miss Wilson?" He smirked

"No sir," I answered and stand up.

I groaned the moment my alarm clock started to wake me up. Glancing at my clock, its already 4:00. I took a quick shower and put on the clothes I prepared last night which is a white top, black pencil skirt that has a slit on the back and black pumps. I made my make up light since I really don't know how to put anything aside from mascara, blush on and lip gloss. At quarter to five, I'm already done and walked out the door.

The building was in dead silent when I arrived, and it honestly scares the shit out of me. Dante, the guard informed me that my boss has been here at 4:30 and my eyes widen at him like saucers. 4 freaking 30 in the morning? Is my boss insane or a vampire? I rushed to the elevator and literally run to his office.

"You're late Miss Wilson," he snapped the moment I opened the door. I'm panting, haggard and he looks fresh and sexy in his black business suit.

"Are you always going to stare at me gaping everytime I talk to you?!" He slammed his fist on his desk.

Grip yourself Athena! And stop checking him out.

"I-I'm sorry sir. I'll get your coffee." I was about to rushed out when a hand snakes around my waist. I turn around and saw Mr. Pitt very close to me. How the hell did he get here so fast? My eyes widen in shock. His proximity makes me shudder and uncomfortable.

"You look pale Miss Wilson," he whispered and looked down at my lips. His eyes darken.

"Yo-your co-ff-coffee sir." Get a grip Athena! I scolded myself.

"Can I just say you look beautiful?"

Is this flirting? I tried to speak but was cut off when he leaned closer. So close that his nose is touching mine. "I know your secret Miss Wilson. Don't worry because it is safe with me, but I want something in return."

If I was pale when I arrived, I am ten times paler now. It feels like all the blood in my run out, and the heaven above dropped on my face. I looked at the man with sexy gray eyes staring at me, his smirk showed the satisfaction he is feeling right now. Is he telling the truth? How did he know?

"Yes, Miss Wilson" he said emphasizing the Miss Wilson. "I know the truth, but like I said your secret is safe with me."

"What do you want?" I whispered

"I want you to be mine for a year."

Bloody cow! What did he say?! Finally, I found the courage to narrowed my eyes at him. What does that mean?

"It means you will be mine for the whole year."

I tried to reply, opening my mouth then close it again. I honestly cannot understand him, I'll be his? In what form? My frowned deepen as I looked at him. Mr. Pitt chuckles and shakes his head before guiding me towards the loveseat.

"You want me to explain further?" He asked when we're both seated and I just nod.

"If you'll agree in my terms, your secret will be safe with me. But in return I want you to be mine for a year. I wanna hire you to be my wife, personal reasons, of course no one should know or it'll be void and I'll reveal your secret."

He wants me to be his wife? Bloody cow! I came here thinking no one would dictate me and I found worse. I opened my mouth to refuse his offer, to stomp on his feet and leave, but then he knows my secret and I don't want it to explode.

"I'll give you five minutes to think about it."

"Five minutes? You must be insane Mr. Pitt." I snapped and narrowed my eyes. He laughs and lean on the seat, putting his arms on the back.

"Such formalities Miss Wilson, call me Zach. Your times starts now."
