7 Chapter 7: The Reveal

Sabrina Dubois' POV

My head was spinning so loudly as I tried to open my eyes to see the sun rays were entering my bedroom as I woke up to the sound of alarm from my phone. I groaned as I tried to locate my phone and found it in my handbag. I turned it off before sleeping in some more as the alarm was showing 5:45 AM. I don't know what came over me but I just felt tired at all. Then, it all comes to my mind now. It was my first day of work and I had to get there on time, or I will be fired.

I went inside the bathroom and took a quick shower. I choose formal attire, a black blouse with black slacks and a black blazer. I put on a minimal makeup to make sure my redness was covered and my puffy eyes were presentable. I must have slept throughout the night. I then brush my teeth and french braided my hair as I was taking all the work-related stuff into my handbag. Someone knocked on the door and opened it, it was Nate.

"Hey, breakfast ready. I hope you're hungry. Woah, what's with all the rush?" he said as he was leaning on the door frame.

"I'm late. I have to get to the office in about 15 minutes now. I need to skip breakfast. I'm sorry," I said as I rush to get things done with my hand was being in a cast and all.

"Hey, don't worry. I'm sure your boss is a reasonable person," he said before I had to run past him but he stopped me on my track.

"Eat breakfast first, then you can go to work," he said while he was holding my wrist. I was about to protest before he interrupted.

"Eat, then we get you to your workplace or I will have to do this the hard way. I'm fine either way," he said. I was about to shout at him before thinking that he might not be joking at all. After all, he might be a drug dealer and had a lot of goons waiting to do something bad to me.

"Okay, fine. But do it quickly," I said before mumbling something in French about how he was rude to force someone.

"What did you say?" he asked as he could hear and understand what I am cursing about him.

"Nothing," I said cheerfully.

"That's what I thought,' he said before dragging me into the dining hall.

The dining hall was huge as the table could fit about 20 people or more into this hall. We sat at the end of the table with Nate at the center and I was on his right side. The breakfast smelled delish. I could swear that I was practically drooling at the sight. They served sausages, bacon, some eggs, and French toasts.

They also served orange juice and some water. I was seated as Nate brought me there and forced me to eat. Not that I am complaining since my stomach growled so loudly that it makes my face red as a tomato right now.

"If you rush to leave this morning, I might say your boss can hear it very clearly," he said before smirking with that kissable lips of his.

"Yeah, whatever," I mumbled before digging in. It was complete bliss. I moaned when I was chewing my food with my eyes closed. When I was done with my food, I caught Nate was staring at me.

"What? Something on my face?" I said as I tried to get smudges on my face.

"No, no. It's just that you really enjoy the food and I was fascinated by it," he said making me rolled my eyes at him. I looked at my watch and cursed as I have less than 7 minutes to get to the office.

"Okay, I eat as you ask me to, now can I please go to work?" I pleaded before he nodded. I dashed out of the dining hall, leaving Nate to his own demise.

I opened the front door and saw Alan was standing by with a car. He asked me to get in and so I did. He sped off to the highway and drove lightning speed. I was pulled back with the speed that he goes.

After a few minutes later, we were stopping in front of Biotech Inc. I thanked him and bid him goodbye before went inside the lobby. I scanned my ID and went toward the receptionist to ask where my office will be. He said that it was on the 15 floors of the building, so I went toward the elevator to go there. The elevator dings and I stepped outside, and everyone was busy arranging their stuff and all. I caught someone and asked them what was going on.

"The big boss will be showing his face today," he said as he continued to arrange his stuff as so was the other staffs.

I went to my desk and thankfully I did not have so much stuff as for the files in my handbag. I was arranging them when someone shouted that the boss has arrived. Everyone stands by their desk and get ready to greet him. I also saw that some women were eager enough to touch up their makeup and giggled about something. I rolled my eyes and just smoothing out my clothes. The elevator dings and to my surprise, the big boss stepped out.

He was wearing a black Armani suit with the white shirt inside. He slicks his hair back and shaved his face. He was smirking and greeting all the employees. He walked slow motioned in my view as he was shaking hands with some of the employees and someone talked with him, probably the branch manager.

My jaw was dropping open as I saw him walking toward my way. Some women giggled when he winked at them. The branch manager stopped in front of me and introduced me to him. He looked at me up and down as his slate orbs were holding mischief in them.

"And here we have our newest recruit, sir. Ms. Dubois from France. She will be our newest microbiologist for the next few years or until she decided to stop working with us," the branch manager said.

"Hmm, interesting. Enchantée, mam'selle," he said before taking my hand and kissed the back of my palm. Electric shoot inside my body as we touched.

"Enchanté, monsieur," I said as I tried to get out of his grip. He smirked at me as his eyes looked intensely into my green orbs. When the branch manager cleared his throat, just then he released my hand.

"Very well, Ms. Dubois, I hope you enjoy your stay here and you can ask me anything, anything, that you need help with," he stressed on anything and I got a few curious glances from some people and jealousy glare from some of the women. He smirked again before moving forward and greeted some more people before heading into the office. Everyone went back to work except for some women whose curious enough to know my relationship with Mr. White.

"Hey, newbie. What's your relationship with our boss, huh?" Hannah, one of the women asked me as I continued to arrange my files on the desk.

"No one. I don't know him," I said trying to be cool as ever.

"If you ever lie to me, newbie, you will face the consequence," she said before leaving me and her friends were glaring at me. Way to make new friends on the first day.

"Hey," someone said before popping out of my cubicle. She was mid-20s just like me. She was blonde and has blue eyes.

"Hey," I said politely.

"don't you mind them, they think they run the company when they were just secretary for the big boss. I'm Ella by the way," the girl said as she extended her hand to shake with me.

"Sabrina, nice to meet you," I said.

"You're not from around here, right?" she asked.

"Yeah, I'm from France. I assume you know that because of my accent," I said while putting some more files on the shelf.

"No, you don't have the usual accent French people have when they speak English. In fact, you seem like a native speaker," she said.

"Oh, thanks, I guess," I said as I looked at her.

"Hey, so listen. I might go get some drinks later with some friends. Wanna join us?" she asked, hope was in her eyes.

"Yeah, sure, 6 o'clock," I said.

"Awesome, see you then," she said before disappearing from my desk.

The day went on as I was showed the labs and the reports that I can get to do my job. They also showed me where to get coffee and refreshment when you feel tired and meeting rooms and stuff. They show some other tech in the building and Nate was just watching me from afar in his office as I caught him staring at me. I rolled my eyes at him and he just smirked.

It was 6 o'clock in the evening and I was ready to leave. I was greeted by Ella and we were talking and walking toward the elevator when suddenly Nate decided to show up.

"Hey, girls, where you guys going?" he asked, towering us with his big frame.

"Oh, we just want to get some drinks, sir. Do you want to join us?" Ella asked cheerfully, as she always does.

"No, I can't. Have some work to do but I do need Ms. Dubois help in that. So, mind if I borrow her for a sec?" he said before dragging me out of the place as Ella was speechless.

"What is wrong with you?" I said as we were walking toward his office.

"They were the bad influence, Sabrina. I thought you know better," he said as he pulled me in his office before closing the door and locked it. I dry chuckled.

"Oh yeah? Since when do you care about me, Nathan? As far as I'm concerned, you don't even care to share that you are actually my BOSS! And here I thought you are some drug dealer lord," I said.

"Wait, you thought I was a drug dealer?" he asked, amusement was on his face.

"Yeah, how do you explain you have the big shiny car and a mansion. I thought you're a bad guy or something," I exclaimed.

"Be careful what thread you pull on me Sabrina, or you might be losing the job that you just started," he said as he stalked over me. I stepped back tried to get away from his menacing approach.

"I dare you," I said before my back hitting the wall. He trapped me in his arms and was nuzzling my neck. My breath stuck in my throat and I sniffed his cologne. It was musky, woody and dark, just like him.

He nuzzled my neck before moving his mouth erotically alongside my jaw to my earlobe before he bit it a little bit. I moaned at the contact before he claimed my mouth. My eyes were wide opened as I was shocked at his action.

I tried to push him but with my hand was being in a cast, it was hard to move his big body from me. Not that I am complaining about his ripped muscles and abs touching my small frame.

"No!" I screamed before I kicked where the sun did not shine. He groaned and I took that chance to escape from him. I ran out of the door and went to see Ella was waiting for me and she was about to ask a question before I interrupted her.

"Don't ask anything," I said before my eyes caught his slate orbs that hold mischief in them before I can feel he was smirking at me as the elevator closed its door.
