[Seven]

|chapter 7|

🤍⏳

Waking up, I feel a body laying on top of me. I look down and it's Elara laying on me with her legs entangled with mine and her arms wrapped around my torso. My hands are sitting on her waist and and I contemplate moving them.

Instead, I trail my hands up to her stomach to lightly squeeze and shake her so she can wake up. She just groans and mumbles, "Noooo, let me sleep," and cuddles into me more. Well, I guess we are stuck here.

I finally give up and decide to turn the tv on to watch Paradise PD. This show is hilarious and will always be in my top five.

After an hour of laying with her and watching tv, she begins to wake up and I watch her sit up on the couch.

She looks at me confused, but I smile awkwardly and say, " Good Morning, how did you sleep."

"Great actually."

"I can say the same," I respond.

My stomach growls and I look at her blushing, "I think we should make breakfast."

"Whyyyy? I just want to sleep." She lays back down pouting adorably.

Ignoring her, I pick her up and carry her into the kitchen placing her onto the large island. She looks down at me still pouting with her arms crossed, causing me to avert my eyes to her breasts but then I quickly look away not wanting to get caught.

"Ok fine, I'll make breakfast but, you have to get ready because we're spending the day at my office here in Switzerland. I just want to make sure everything is in order, and maybe we can get a few things done there."

She hops down speaking, "Alright I'll be down in about 30 minutes. "

I watch as she lazily stroll up the stairs and I turn back to the task at hand.

I finish preparing breakfast in about 20 minutes so, I go upstairs to shower and do my hygiene. I get dressed in a brand new Armani suit with my gold Rolex and gold chain. Then, I complete my outfit with Givenchy cologne.

When I arrive downstairs, I see Elara is standing by the island with her back facing me so, I take this moment to admire her beauty. She's wearing a forest green, long sleeve dress that hugs her every curve, along with shiny heels.

I walk up behind her and I hear her breath hitch. I smirk, loving the effect I had on her. I grab my plate and head to the dining room to eat without looking at her.

I take my first bite of cheesy scrambled eggs and damn can I cook. Scrolling through my phone, I realize I haven't been on social media in a while so, I click on Instagram to see that my childhood best friend, Lucian, had posted.

We both agreed to check up on each other once a week when we are not in the same area because we are very busy men. I see he is currently in Zurich so, I message him about meeting up later today.

I then look up to see Elara sauntering towards me placing her phone on the table. She then grins at me speaking, "Do you notice anything different," whiles subtlety flipping her hair.

I decide to play with her, "Nope, you look the same as always."

She pouts, "Really? I thought it would be a noticeable change. Never mind then." She starts to walk away but I stop her with my voice.

"Wait Elara. Yes, I noticed and I like it. It's cute." I lied. It's absolutely gorgeous.

She smiles once again," Thanks, I try," she replies flipping her hair and walking away. Damn.

Stepping into my building, I make sure Elara is close

by my side and I watch her observe the work environment. Here, in Switzerland, nobody knows who the real boss is and I check every once in a while to make sure nobody is slacking.

We take my private elevator to my floor and I greet my secretary, "Guten Morgen Frau Ruber. Das ist meine Assistentin, Frau Suave." I turn to Elara, "Ms. Suave, meet my Secretary, Miss Ruber."

Elara responds with a small smile and a waves.

We both enter my office and I lock the door behind me. My office is modern and decorated with shades of brown to make it cozy. It's not very large because one man does not require any more space than this.

"Welcome to my office, Miss Suave." I give her a cheeky smile.

"How long has this been your office?" she asks whiles observing her surroundings.

"For about 10 years. I've spent most of my adult life in this place so, it's going to be difficult to leave it behind. " My mind suddenly goes back to reminisce about the sleepless nights, the midnight naps on the couch, my most successful business deals, and even the regular days of work.

Although this is hard for me, I try to think about the future of this company and what I want it to be. I also look forward to working and building a good relationship with Elara.

She walks towards me and I look down into her eyes, "Well, on the bright side, I'm your assistant now and I'll do my best to assure you're comfortable and that you don't overwork yourself," she says to me with that gorgeous smile of hers.

"I look forward to that Miss Suave." I walk around my desk to have a seat and explain her work for today, "I need you to organize my meetings for the next six months before we travel to New York. I don't like any more than 3 meetings a week because it messes up my schedule so please keep that in mind. Also, please accommodate for future meetings or deals and if they don't fit into the schedule, please push them back. You can find all of the requests in my email so, I will send the access code. And please ensure that the requests or deals are appropriate. Understood?"

She replies with a "Yes Sir" and moves over to the couch with her laptop to get started.

Seven hours later, we are both done with work for the day. I could work a few more hours but, I can see that she is worn out so, I suggested we should leave and just resume tomorrow. And of course, she agreed.

I notice her struggling to walk and carry her laptop bag at the same time, maybe because of exhaustion. So, I gently take it and I hear her mumble a small, "thank you."

As soon as we get into the car, she immediately knocks out. And because she hasn't eaten all day, I purchase dinner on the way to the hotel since I won't be able to prepare some myself. I'll be out with Lucian and a few other friends and I want to make sure she's good.
