If only it was an Illusion! by Aafrynn

"you're no one to me", his words echoed in my ears but what was it all when he kissed me; merely an illusion? It felt so real and lively. "...and just so you know, you're not allowed to leave this job until or before 6 months", he flung the contract papers in the air. I had signed the papers, the terms and conditions clearly meant that I was supposed to work for his company and had no right to leave it until his consent. "Leave my cabin for now", he ordered as he turned behind. ********** Amanda Waters is your typical College student who happens to face a lot of financial difficulties and as a result, is made to earn a living. She's blunt, She's sensitive but she is also accompanied by two of her best friends in this story: Gina Sullivan and Francis Rutherfold. The enterprise which she works in is different, very different. In fact, the 'CEO' is not just another Happy go lucky male lead of the company. Aaron Reynolds- Rude, Arrogant, Harsh, and Stubborn. He's what they call an eccedentesiast. They say that a person who defines negative adjectives has a lot more inside them, the darkness in that person may overrule all the Positiveness. Well, with Aaron, it's hard to say. But...What if Amanda already had a face-off with 'The CEO' before working in his firm? What if she had already drawn a thick line of hate? What if egos of the same level collide? What then? True Love? More like an illusion! An illusion that poses a life threat. An illusion with the ability to make you believe in non-existent things such as; fairies, demons, fate, and even destiny! Ironic is it not? What we as humans happen to rely on.

Not Even His Assistant by braycriss

Connor Meyers, Vice President and COO of Meyers Motors, has always been focused on his job and doing it well. As he is currently working on planning the biggest business meeting of his life, one that will merge his company with one in Japan and earn him the title of CEO, he has no desire for distractions. He only has a few months before his meeting and nothing will make him happier than single-handedly managing this and finally getting his father to retire. Greyson Lewis, on the other hand, is a young college student who enjoys her care-free life in Miami, Florida. Her talkative nature surprisingly managed to land her a job in Meyers Motors, and not just any nine to five. She is told she will gain the title of COO, as partner to the current one. She has no idea what the title means, but her need for a summer gig means she won't pass this up. To say Connor is unhappy about this development is an understatement. If his father believes he will partner up with some random college student, he has truly gone insane. Greyson, on the other hand, has no intention of quitting just because her partner is an absolute ass. With their obvious clash, is a merger even possible? ______ Book Cover Photo by: Caique Silva on Unsplash
