Burning Passion(ONGOING)

SIENNA'S POV :

I returned home and called Jasmine to say her to attend the girl's night. I took a long relaxing bath and got ready. I was determined to have fun today.

********

"I'll go get the door." said Melissa as the doorbell rung again. I knew this was Jasmine. She was the most impatient creature on Earth. I heard them exchanging greetings.

"Hey, bitch." She said me.

"Hey."

"Why are you sulking?"
"I'm not"

She turned towards Melissa.

"Do you know the reason?"

"I don't."

"How are things at work?" I asked changing the topic.

"Not great." Responded Jasmine. "I'm going crazy now. Who can handle being groped by an old man who is supposedly my boss. He is nearing the deadline. The day I'll get a new job, I'll tear him to pieces."

"I can help you to get a job in our company." Melissa offered.

"And how?"

"Tristan is close to me. I can ask him. I'm sure he won't refuse." That, actually surprised me. I never knew this. This is news to me.

"Well do me that favour then." I continued to silently hear their conversation.

"I'll do that."

"Well I don't know a lot about Mr. Ellison. He is the most mysterious man of business world and one of the most eligible bachelors. Let's check it on internet."

I nodded willingly.

She searched it and then there was a history about the projects of the company and a lot of things. There were not many photos of him. And nothing about his personal life. I found an article.

It said,

There is a possibility that now since Mr. Toronto Ellison is sick and on the death bed his son Tristan Ellison will take his place. The company has always been interested in building apartments and hotels. They have chains of hotels in Europe and America. They weren't the best in business though they have managed to get in headlines a few times. But, in recent news we have come to know that the company is heading towards technology. Let's see what wonders the company can create under the supervision of Tristan Ellison. There is not much known about his successor. We do not know about what he did before and any of his other conquests.

This article was of 6 years ago.

I found another article which was some months ago.

We congratulate Ellison Enterprises for winning the award for the best company of the year. Also, we would like to announce that Mr. Tristan Ellison has successfully broken the record by coming in the front page for more than two weeks solely due to his company conquests. Also from our records this is the 50th awarded rewarded to him and his company. In a course of six years he has managed to be the most eligible bachelor of New York. His company is in the top of the lists. Mr. Tristan has created a miracle in the world of business and has clearly made his mark in a young age.

And there it ended. Seems like Tristan is as talented as his good looks. He is simply perfect. No wonder his company is going good because he himself works for around 16 hours a day. He's really admirable. My mind automatically diverted towards what happened today.

I don't think I can ever forget the electricity that passed through me when our eyes met. I recalled those moments when he pushed his chair close to me, leaned towards me. 'when he pulled me towards him, the concern in his voice and his protective nature. I can still feel the warmth emanating from his body. His cologne. I still remember how fresh it smelt.

However there is nothing much written about his personal life.

"Melissa, how do you know Tristan?"

"I didn't know you guys were on first name basis." She said in a teasing tone.

"We're not. And I don't think anyone will be on first name basis with him. He is a arrogant jerk asshole. What does he think he is!"

"Yeah, you're right." Jasmine continued. "He is a selfish, arrogant prick. Very emotionless. Ain't I right?" Somehow those words from her mouth burned by throat. I didn't like the way she was talking about him. He has emotions. Humanity.

"No. He has humanity. He respects woman." A small part of my brain mocked me.

Weren't you the one who hated his humanity. And why are you defending him?

To say the truth I don't know what's wrong with me. It's like nothing is in my control regarding him. I don't know what I'm doing anymore.

I didn't really have many experience with love. But I know the one who makes you feel the way Tristan make me feel is the special one. I know he is.

"Earth to Sienna." I heard a loud wail right in front of my ears breaking me from my train my thoughts.

"What's wrong just sometime ago you were saying bad things about him and now you're defending him?" Melissa said with a smirk plastered on her face.

"Uh-oh." That caught me off-guard.

"She looks like she has been caught stealing cookies." Jas says and they both laugh together.

"Explain." She says going in her best friend mode.

"Okay. I'm saying. I feel like I'm having an attraction towards him. My body heats up whenever I'm close to him. Today when I met his eyes for the first time I felt like something is dragging me towards him. My heart thumps so loudly that I'm afraid that he might hear me. My heart pains to stay away from him. My thoughts only consist of him.

You've no idea how hard it was for me to maintain distance from him in the past month. And then today suddenly he came so close to me to protect me. He didn't feel a single thing and went away like an asshole. But still I want to bring him close to me. I want to be successful in doing my job and without getting close to him. But the thing is that I don't know how to do it."

I said it all. All the thoughts which I had forced in my brain was now kept out. Two jaws were touching the floor on my outburst. They recovered after a long time. I raised an eyebrow when they looked at me together.

"Uh- Si, we'll help you. " Jas said with Melissa nodding her head vigorously.

"How?"

This time it was Melissa.

"Wait and watch, darling."

God knows what they are going to do! Save me!
