"Shut the door behind you Ms. Evans" Stephan growled sternly.

I shut the door, slightly rolling my eyes in the process. I walked towards his desk as he stared at me for what felt like forever. 

"I don't appreciate you flirting with my clients Ms. Evans. It's unprofessional and it reflects my company negatively." He said breaking the awkward silence.

"I did no such thing." I replied quickly, my heart was thumping and I broke eye contact.

Without saying anything, he stood up and I could hear him walking towards me. "Look at me when I'm speaking to you Adah." He said, mentioning me by my first name for the first time. The way my name rolled off his tongue made my stomach feel uneasy. 

"I- I didn't-" I stumbled with my words before he cut me off by pulling me closer to him. He placed light kisses on my neck and then began lightly nibbling on my ear.

Adah Imani Evans. With her gentle warm eyes and her introverted personality, she was the opposite of Stephan Black. His cold, narrow blue eyes held mystery. Her gentle and caring ways compared to his rude and arrogant ways. I mean I guess that's the reputation of every young CEO. "Mysterious, sexy, and rich." The headlines read. A good paying job as an assistant sounded nice to Adah, but she did not expect the turn of events. "As long as I stay out of his way." Adah recited walking into Black's Enterprises. But that didn't work too well for her did it?

What happens when these two different personalities collide? Will they change for love? Or will they walk away from each other and remain within themselves?
