"TO LOVE WITHOUT CONDITION, TO TALK WITHOUT INTENTION,

TO GIVE WITHOUT REASON, TO CARE WITHOUT EXPECTATION;

THAT'S THE SPIRIT OF TRUE LOVE"

"Bambi, are you daydreaming again?", I spoke making Isabella come out of her trance. She looks at me with those innocent Bambi eyes and sighs. "Nothing, just packing my bag for school", I knew she was lying to me. She picks up her bag and walks towards her mother. I follow her after picking up my car keys from the key stand. She looked droopy and sad, I wanted to know what made her sad but she would try to change the topic. She was always like that. For some unknown reason, I always feel protected over her, this was not something that happened a few days back...I've felt the need to protect her from the very beginning and I am pretty sure she is my mate. The dreams she gets...the way I feel towards her and her eyes! It all ends up in only one conclusion, she has to be my mate.

"Williiiiiiiiiiam, time is up! Let's get going", she screams at me making me come out of my trance. I smile at her and take significant steps towards her while she stretches out her hand towards me. I happily hold her hand and we both exit the house after telling our parents. I drop her at school always before going to work. Anyways my company starts at nine in the morning, so it is perfect for me to drop her off at eight-thirty and get to the office by eight-fifty. Reaching the destination I kiss her cheek while she lets out a cute smile and waves her hand at me while getting off. I watch her as she disappears into the school premises. She makes me feel things I haven't felt for anyone else. She's just too cute for me to handle. I smile internally and head towards my office. I am the CEO of IB ENT-my self-made company, which focuses on entertainment and gaming. I know it sounds fun and honestly, it is but the workload is humungous. I am proud that my company stands tall among the other gaming and entertainment companies, it has a reputation—a dream company for models and actors. As always everything started from scraps, I had to work my ass off.

Parking my car, I enter the building. The securities salute me as I nod my head in return. As I walk in I see my friend, who is also my personal assistant Peter. He's been such a great employee and has supported me for years, he knows how to handle crises like the back of his hand. He has been with me from the very beginning and continues to stand by me. "Good morning Mr Baker", Peter spoke making me roll my eyes. "Haven't I told you to stop annoying me by addressing me so formally Mr Watson? For Pete's sake, the day has just begun! Would you cut me some slack?", I spoke after pinching his arm. He low-key yelped like a girl and rubbed his arm while frowning. "Anyways ma boy, there's a girl who has passed the third level and you have to interview her", Peter spoke. It's the company rules, to join the main department one has to go through three levels of interview to get selected but not without my approval.

"Fine, at what time is the interview scheduled?", I asked while entering the elevator with Peter. "At 09:10 and it's 09:04 right now", He spoke while looking at his watch. I hum in response and take the tab from his hand to check my schedule for today. Not bad today is not that hectic, well as of now it seems so. We exited the elevator and walked towards my cabin when my eyes fell on a girl sitting in the waiting area. She felt very familiar, I shook my head and entered my cabin. "Okay it's 09:09, I'll call that girl inside for the interview. Don't scare her off!", Peter spoke while smirking. "Oh come on, I don't bite!" I replied while making a sarcastic face. I took the file which had the details for the upcoming deal, as I heard a very timid 'excuse me, sir. May I come in?'. I lifted my head and saw the same girl who was sitting in the waiting area. I took in some air and nodded my head. She walked in and took her seat across the table, right opposite me. She passed me the file she was carrying and I took it in silence. I opened the file and read it as I started speaking, "So Miss. Sophia Dixon, It's given here that you have studied at King's College. Well, it's a prestigious college." "Yes, sir I did study there.", she spoke to the point. Well, that's a clean start.

"You have studied at such a prestigious college, so obviously you would be a person from a rich background...Why IB ENT?", I asked with dominance flowing in my voice. "Well, I chose to apply here due to the well-maintained economy of this company. IB ENT has one of the best reputation and salary packages Sir. And another reason would be, it's quite close to my home. So, it would be easy to come to work every morning", she replied making me scoff. "Well, fine. I see that you have done some research about IB ENT, good. Nest question, What kind of a salary package are you expecting Miss. Sophia?", I asked looking at her keenly. "A salary worth my skill and effort", she spoke making me smirk. "Very well Miss. Sophia, you can start working as the executive producer from tomorrow onwards. Peter will introduce you to the main film crew." I spoke and called Peter through the office landline. Miss. Sophia got up from her place and politely took her file back. Peter came in and I told him to introduce the film crew to Miss. Sophia. "Welcome to IB ENT Miss. Sophia", I spoke while extending my hand for a formal handshake. She smiled and held my hand in response, when her hand touched mine I felt a sudden spark. As if a slight current had passed through my body. My eyes widened while seeing her and Peter walk out of my cabin.

What the hell just happened?
