Chapter 2 - An Offer I Couldn’t Refuse

The next day:

I just finished my make up with a lined smudged upper lid and mascara making my green eyes much more pronounced. I'm very much an alternative girly , I put on my little black dress that goes to mid thigh, a long Lacey black kimono, opaque black stockings and a cute pair of black sling back kitten heels. I smooth my long wavy dark brown hair and spray a light sweet purfume and out the door to my interview I go.

I arrive at the address on the business card promptly at 7:50 I wind up in front of a receptionist.

"Hi my name Aurora and I have an appointment with Mr. Harper at 8" I say sweetly to the lady at the desk. I look at her name tag it reads Georgia. She picks up her phone and speaks to someone next thing I know I'm being buzzed though being told to take the elevator to the top floor.

The elevator dings at the 13th floor and I exit. I walk straight until I see 2 large offices . The space and grand with marble black marble flooring and windows higher then I could ever dream to reach. I reach a reception desk in the center and I'm ushered to the CEO's office and the door is closed behind me as she leaves.

" Aurora! I'm glad you came" Mr. Harper says, smiling at me. I walk to his desk and shake his hand.

"This place is beautiful sir , thank you for offering me a position." As I smile back at him. I hand him my resume and he gestures to sit in the plush chairs in front of his desk. As he reads over my resume I look around the office. There's a beautiful painting of a water fall and it seems items from around the world nicely decorated throughout the office and a few plants .

" When I offered you an opportunity I didn't expect for you to exceed my expectations. You went to school for web / graphic design and worked for a decent amount of companies. I've seen your work first hand so I know your capable , but what can you bring to the table for the company if hired as the new designer?" He asks staring at me .

"I'm 26 and I feel with my age I bring some modern twist to some traditional views when it comes to older companies. New idea concepts and I definitely think out of the box sir" I reply.

"Good answer lil lady. I think your exactly what I'm looking for . What would you need from me if I wanted you to start today?"

"Today?! I'd like a decent salary and an office ." I reply in shock .

"I have high hopes for you . 100k and office done deal. If there is nothing more let me take you on a tour"

"I would love that, and thank you so much for giving me this opportunity!"

He shows me the lower floors and places I'll need to know. We go back up stoping at the 10th floor. We take a right off the elevator and he brings me to a empty beautiful glass office.

"This is now yours, make your self at home and decorate as you please" he says.

"Thank you Mr.Harper!" I say excited with starting this new page in my life.

" We actually have a meeting to get to, perfect timing to meet everyone, come" as he starts walking in the opposite direction .

He leads me to a conference room filled with people. Or should I say men, there's only 1 female in the whole room. I'm uncomfortable with the stares. He introduces me as the new in house graphic designer n tells me to take a seat . There is only one seat not taken and it's next to a very handsome looking guy staring daggers into me. He has the most pericing blue eyes I've ever seen with dark messy hair . His hands on the table show his fingers covered in good rings as his neck tattoo peaks out. I take a seat next to him and realize just how big he is, you can see the muscles through his suit as I try not to stare to hard. As I try to focus on what's being said in the meeting my brain disassociates as I'm lost at staring at his hand tattoo as I copy it onto my notes. I feel eyes on me and when I look up it seems I've caught the tattooed gods attention.

He whispers to me " is my art work to your likening ?"

" it's a bad habit sorry, it was just so detailed I couldn't keep my eyes off ." I say as I stare into his gorgeous eyes. The meeting seems to have ended without us realizing.

Mr. Harper says " Addison since your going to check the shipping business bring Aurora with you , I want her to learn more about us."

" No problem we can take my car" the tattooed god says as he looks at me from head to toe.

My brain can't seem to keep up when he looks at me,so the god has a name , and it's Addison. I stand up to see he towers over my 5'7 self, he has to be at least 6'2. He holds open the door for me to exist and head towards the parking garage . Just what have I gotten my self into with this new position?Kind of feels to good to be true .
