Chapter 79

Amaris POV

I shuddered, a sense a fear grip me. This job was more like my life. Why was he threatening me with it.

I needed my pay to clear up my debt and it turns out that he knew. My feet paused as I shamelessly suck my breath, exhausted and tired.

My body flinches as I heard his footsteps behind me, and I almost forgot how to breath when his hot breath fanned my neck, his soft groan.

"I hate it when you act tough..."

"What do you want from me?" I whispered, my breath thickens as I clenched my fists, not daring to look back.

"Why are you ignoring me amaris" he furthers in a deep low tone that felt as though he was seducing me.

I wish to get close to Kian, to explain to him that there's nothing between us but then this boss was freaking me out.

It seems as though he knew I needed this job and keeps using it against me.

I just wish someone would save me, someone would bump in on us. My lips shook as I felt his arms around my waist.

"I don't want you close to Kian, just me because I own you" he declares, his husky voice cutting through me like a sharp knife.

His closeness made me mousey and I felt like he'd melt my flesh.

My body quivers in his hold. I couldn't, even when my thighs quiver with want. I just have to break out or this might get toxic on me and i'd become the victim.

I became speechless, sweat beads on my face as I couldn't tell what to reply, the pain in my eyes, yet his presence made me feel mousey.

Then I felt his lips on my neck, so warm and fluffy as he was kissing me there, sucking my neck.

No one can own me. I brush him mildly with my elbow, just so he'd move away.

However, he wasn't moving and fortunately, I could see that I was in front of an elevator and so I quickly haul myself from him.

He almost stuttered, his cold domineering face peering at me, his wet lips folded as he suddenly scoffed, I could sense he was cussing out me.

"We're at the office sir" I pointed out in a harsh tone and jumped inside the elevator.

Watching it slide close, I breath heavily, feeling as though i'd achieved a lot. I could get to Kian without him knowing...

The door suddenly spur open, Caleb had stopped it by placing his hand in between and it slides open.

He had that cocky smile on his face, as though he got me trapped with him. My breath ceased and I was quivering.

The elevator door slides behind him and a gripping sensation caught my throat.

I was blown apart by the heat he created between us. He took a calculative step closer, almost grabbing me but then I moved aside and accidentally, he banged his head on the wall.

I gasped that wasn't intentional. He growl at me, as he moved to grab my wrist and accidentally I used my fist to punch his nose.

Oh my God, what am I doing? He widened his eyes at me and I quickly bow, trying to apologize but then, shock stole the very air out of me.

Blood was drooling from his nose! How hard did I hit him. I just didn't want him close to me yet because I was panicking that Kian might run into us again.

It seems as though he was frozen where he stood. His hand gently rubbed his nose and his fingers shook when his eyes met his blood.

"Shit! Amaris did you plan all this to kill me?"

I gulp hard and drew closer to him, thinking of how to stop the bleeding. I just didn't know how to feel but I could tell I was grinning inside my heart.

Sometimes, he just needs to respect women. I gave him no response and when I intended to touch his face, he shoved my hand away, used his neck tie to wipe his blood.

"You're doing this on purpose right"

I was still quiet pretending not to care but I was freaking out, wanting to see if he was injured anywhere.

I didn't know my hit would be hard, he acts tough yet have a fragile face. The blood wouldn't stop which heights my fear.

I tried to touch him but he wouldn't let me because I know he'd be pissed off, didn't he want to hold me? Why was he acting this way.

Annoyingly, I held his shoulder and shoved his to face.

"You might die if you don't let me handle it" I whispered, our eyes peering at each other.

His arms had gone around my waist and the way we were posed as though we'd kiss each other.

"Is this your way of seducing me?" He questioned and my heart was flustered, like he was reading through me.

"Perhaps, we should cover the bleeding first" I responded as his come hither grin was compelling.

Hastily, I untied the tie on him and covered his nose.

"Hold it up this way until we get to the office" I mused pushing him back a bit as his bright face turned sore.

It seems as though he wasn't willing to do that, neither was the bleeding stopping.

Does he have leukemia or something? It seems as though he wasn't even bothered.

I had to cover his nose with my palm just so he wouldn't look stupid and I could see the shock in his eyes, my other hand was holding his neck just so his head would bend to my level.

"Amaris! I'm your boss..."

"Not now" I quickly retort knowing I was doom. He can touch me but I can't. Was he some kind of god?

The elevator halts and the door glides open. The first person I saw outside the elevator was Kian!

I quickly took my hand from Caleb's nose, forgetting that his blood was on my palm, I rubbed it on my dress.

Oh no, what an unfortunate day. I moved my feet closer to Kian as I could sense that disappointment in his eyes.

I almost muttered his name when I suddenly heard a loud thud. Kian and I shuddered as I rolled my eyes behind me.

It was Caleb, he had collapsed!
