Fixation

Chapter o06

The work week ended rather eventful for me, besides me succumbing to Reuben’s sexual advances earlier that Tuesday, he has been relentless with his keeping tabs on me, well, since I changed my number on his ass; yes, I did tell him that the entire ordeal was a huge, spare of the moment mistake that I regretted but he was not buying into my claims. And you know the really sad part was…

…neither was I.

Mr. Ackerson kept me on my toes all day today; he had an array of cliental that came through his office today, including Reuben’s older brother Nicholas. I was in and out of the building all morning and well into the afternoon running errands; barely finished my lunch too. Had my mouth set on that chicken salad sandwich Mommy made me, oh well.

I was gathering my bags to get ready to close up the business day at the firm, Mr. Ackerson left early because the misses made them dinner reservations and he knew better then to be late; like he always entrusted in me, I closed down the office for him. I stayed behind to do a little more tiding of his schedule for the upcoming business days… Thank God it was Friday; lord knows I needed a weekend of chill time.

“See you later, Maia!” I looked up and waved to Vivienne and Clara as the duo headed towards the main elevators, I smiled.

“See you guys on Monday!” 

I waved to them as I grabbed my purse and work bag, and walked over to Mr. Ackerson’s door and made sure it was locked. Once on the elevator I pushed the lobby floor button, then I went to the furthest corner and combed my fingers through my flat ironed hair; I was in serious need of a hot bath and some wine, and by God I was going to have them both when I got my black ass home. I took a deep sigh and stared blankly ahead when I realized that I was moving up rather than down.

“Fuck.” I murmured, now I have to be stuck on the elevator with them snooty ass executive bastards. I straighten my dress and my hair then fold my arms fuming at my delay of getting home to my chilling bottle of Fuzzy Navel. 

The elevator car went all the up to the 52nd floor, I really got nervous because the men that owned the building offices were on this floor and not to mention not everyone was restricted to be on that floor. I bit my bottom lip and fidgeted with my fingers nervously as the doors came sliding open and there he stood; Reuben, his brother and very handsome older man. 

“Ms. Jones, we meet again.” Nicholas said with a warm smile on his face, I try to keep my eyes from Reuben’s lingering gaze as the handsome trio piled into the car with me. “You remember my brother, Reuben don’t you?” I looked over at Reuben, whom eyes blared into my face.

“Oh yes, of course… Nice seeing you… again…” My voice carried off when he picked up my hand and kissed it gently.

“Always a pleasure, honey.” He winked at me, I exhaled sharply… He took my breath every time I was near him. “Oh and this is our father, Dick Michaelson.” My eyes bulged from my head; the Dick Michaelson as in “Michael Ward” Dick Michaelson?! 

For the past two years I have near caught sight of this man, too many he was a figment of the imagination; a god like figure that’s name was just tossed around when needed. But he was truly real and quite a site to look at, just like his sons. 

Then it also hit me, I should have put two and two together, Reuben was the son of one America’s most successful business tycoons and was quite the business man himself.

“Ms. Jones.” 

Mr. Michaelson smiled as he reached out his hand for me to shake; I quickly took his hand into mine and shook it lightly. “So, I hear you work for my brother-in-law.” I nodded my head in response, that’s when Dick took a step back and looked me over, seeming to be checking me out. “Well, I surprised that Rhoda would allow him to have a secretary that is as young and beautiful as you, Ms. Jones.” He said making Nicholas chuckle in agreement:

“She is rather the jealous type.”

I shrugged my shoulders, I have never had an issue with her and she’s never been rude or malicious to sister before, so I knew that I was cool with her.

“Well, me and Mrs. Ackerson have an understanding, I made sure she knows I want nothing more than just a monthly check from her husband.” 

Dick’s eyes went wide then he and Nicholas fell into a fit of laughter as Reuben remained in his cool stance, he leaned sluggishly against the wall of elevator’s car; hands fisted into the pockets of his grey Yves Saint Laurent suit slacks. He had this smug smirk upon his handsome face as he continued to stare into my face, as he had been doing ever since he joined me on the elevator.

“I like that! I like your honesty, Ms. Jones.” Mr. Michaelson continued to laugh at my statement; I cracked a smile then shrugged my shoulders. I wasn’t one to really pussy foot around things.

“Yea, until it comes to that rich, white boy.” My subconscious hissed at me, I bit my bottom trying to contain myself; I wish I could slap the fucking taste out her ass at times. 

The conversation grew more businesslike, which excluded me all together; I was not mad at all, I was ready to burst out of this car and run like hell to my car so I could get home. The elevator filled with another round of executives, whom commenced to kissing the ass their powerful boss… This left Reuben and I more and more alone.

This was the first time in a couple days I have laid eyes on Reuben, and I knew he was pissed at my ass… Not only had I changed my number on his ass, I deleted my existing e-mail address, declined every package he had delivered to me, and ID’d every phone call he had transferred to me at work—I was officially trying to erase him from my life… Not easy to do when I’m a broke bitch and he’s a billionaire, and the fact his uncle is my boss and his father owned the building I worked in. But I just knew since his father and brother were a few feet from us, along with an array of others, he would totally behave himself and deal with me on his own, personal time. 

Boy, was I wrong.

I stood in my corner completely quiet when I felt him hook his finger into the belt of my dress and snatching me, causing my body to crash in to his rock, solid frame. Before I could protest, he hiked up the back dress and swatted me, hard, on the ass. I gasped from the intense sting, though the smack was loud, the loud sounds of conversation floating throughout the car drowned it out.

“You have made me very, very angry honey.” He growled into my ear, pulling my harshly by the belt to him once again. I whimpered as he pressed the bulge of his erecting member into my ass. “I have every intention on punishing you for being so fucking disobedient, I should bend you over now and fuck you until I feel you have learned from your mistakes.”

My eyes went wide as I glanced at each person in the car with us, everyone was in their own little world, not noticing the fact I was being harassed by the boss’ son… 

“Hoe, you half ass like it!” My subconscious muttered as she noticed the moistness of my panties. 

Bitch… Not right now… Not right now!

“I-I-I can’t do this with you…” I stuttered trying to make him understand my position.

“Bullshit, Maia!” He roared, this time a little louder—I think he wanted someone to see us! “You want me just as much as I want you! I guess us fucking in my club the other night was not clear enough?” I winced at the words.

“I’m not doing this with you, not right now!” He groaned angrily, but I did not care. “If you wanna talk about this mess, you’ll talk to me in private.” 

The elevator car doors opened to the lobby, I quickly squeezed through the others and rushed out into the hustle and bustle of the main lobby of the Michael Ward building; there were tours wrapping up and employees heading home for the evening. I ignored my name being hollered for, I didn’t know whether it was Reuben or one of my co-workers trying to bid me a nice day… I just had to get the fuck away from it all.
………………………………………………………
I picked at my dinner, ordered in some Chinese food and all the shit on my mind, i.e. my situation with Reuben, made me lose my appetite. I really did not know how to handle my situation with him any longer; I knew in my mind I did not want any parts of him… But the rest of my body totally disagreed with me. I was attracted to this man on so many different levels; he was sexy, intelligent, even though it only lasted twenty five minutes—Had some excellent dick game… Not to mention he had the ability to make me sweat by just glancing at me…

I had it bad and it scared me.

Pushing the carton of lo mien from in front of me, I stood up from the kitchen table and walked into my living room then plopped down on the couch as I flipped on the television, I knew I would have to face Reuben one of these days… and I knew if I didn’t do it on my own field, he would show up at my job.

I could not let him embarrass me in front of Mr. Ackerson and everyone. 

Feeling a bit bold, I picked up my iPhone from the coffee table and dialed his number.

“Michaelson.” His voice was stern and professional; I knew he did not know it was me. I licked my lips and tried to conjure up the words to say to him.

“Hey… It’s me.” I managed to speak; I could hear Reuben shift on the other end of the line.

“New number? Glad to see you didn’t block it from me, honey.” I gritted my teeth and scratched at my scalp.

“Yea… I realized changing my number was kind of an immature mistake.” Reuben chuckled lowly; I gave him an unsure giggle in return. “But I thought this would be a good time to discuss some things—“

“Maia, I think this conversation would be better in person, rather than a mere over the phone talk.” No, I could not be alone with him! Not right now! “I’ll send David for you.”

“No, that’s not even necessary… I’ll drive myself.”

“Very well, I reside at the Wilshire, honey… Please do not keep me waiting.” With that he hung up the phone, I just stood there; how the hell was I supposed to know what floor he lived on or what the number was to his condo!

“Bitch, he’s the only billionaire that lives there… Top floor, stupid!” 

I closed my eyes; I was two seconds off of this bitch’s ass. I slid on my shoes, grabbed my purse and I was out the apartment in record timing, for some reason I was anxious to getting to where Reuben was.
