Business trip 2

'Why is he staring at me like that?' Mr Sylvester thought to him self.

Skylar sat down on his seat and Diana followed.

" You might all..."

" Don't worry Clark " Skylar said as he continued " A very good evening to you all. You might be wondering who I am seeing the confused look on your faces. I am Skylar Fisher, the owner of the Fisher Corp." Skylar said with an overbearing aura, with no emotions, with a tone that makes one want to surrender. After dropping the bomb without any warning, he laid back in his chair and took in the different reactions from everyone.

The dining erupted into murmurs.

"Since you've signed the secrecy document I expect whatever happens here remains here. I hope I'm understood" Skylar said to have everyone saying " yes sir".

No one had the guts to look at Skylar in the eye, his aura was too overbearing. No matter the age, every one felt the need to give him respect. Now they could see why the Fisher Corp was one of the best in the country, with this kind of owner, even though young, a company can only be the best.

" I'm sure Clark here has briefed you through everything that needs to be done, so we'll just discuss the way forward from here. Have you drafted the design for the resort layout Mr Thomas?"

" It has been sent through email for verification. They might be some errors, so I'm letting you know beforehand that it was a rough draft"

" What about you miss Paula? The layout of the exterior design has not been sent, I received miss Pauline's two days ago "

" W-what ?" Paula found her self stuttering. She wasn't expecting that he'll call her out like that. Truth be told, she has not really drafted anything yet. The day she was supposed to do it with Pauline, she bailed out at the last minute just to go to the club. She regrets that decision now. She really didn't expect Mr Fisher to appear out of the blue like that, and GOD, he was so handsome.

" I'll send the draft by tomorrow morning, just need to touch up some things." Paula said with her head bowed, while raising it up once in a while to steal glances at Skylar.

" You guys can go on with your food it'll get cold, we'll just discuss few things over dinner " Skylar said as he noticed almost everyone's hand either on their laps l, or fondling one thing or the other, but not their food.

Every one looked at Skylar like he just spoke in a foreign language. How does he expect them to eat without choking when he was bombarding them with questions. They were too nervous to even touch their cutleries talk more of eating.

Skylar noticed this was not working and they would rather starve than eat in front of him and his questions.

"It seems we need more time to get used to each other presence, we'll have this conversation tomorrow after breakfast and after that we'll go to the site." Skylar stood up and buttoned his shirt, "Good night" And he left.

Diana and Clark went after him leaving the remaining wondering what just happened. They just met with Mr Fisher.

"Don't get any ideas!" Pauline said after seeing how Paula stared at Skylar's back.

" He is just my type Pauline. Handsome, tall, Cold. He's just like what I've read in novels" Paula silently screamed as she wiggled her butt in her seat.

"Don't ruin this for us Paula!" Pauline warned.

"Say that to your self. I saw the way you looked at Clark, anyone with quick wits such as mine could tell that the first opportunity you get to climb on his bed, you would take it with open hands. Gosh, you almost naked the poor guy with your eyes." Paula said dramatically.

" Lower your voice " Pauline pinched Paula on the thigh afraid someone will hear their conversation.

"You are over exaggerating things. And who told you I like Clark that way"

" Woman up and admit your feelings just like me. I'll be going to bed so I can strategize how to get Mr Fisher. You should do same." Paula said as she got up to leave.

Pauline stayed back to eat a little before going to bed. The remaining business men were discussing other business related stuff and she was not in any way interested.

...

"Have some coffee Skylar" Diana said as she placed a cup of coffee on Skylar's desk. He was reviewing the drafts that were sent to him. 'Doesn't he rest?' Diana thought.

"Do you need any other thing?" Diana said as she bent closer to face him.

Skylar was so engrossed in his work that he didn't hear Diana or notice how hard she was staring at him. He was about to take a sip from his coffee when he almost kissed Diana. He turned his head to pick his cup and her face was was just there, only an inch apart from a kiss.

How long did they stare at each other for?

Thirty seconds?

One minute?

Ten minutes?

Diana didn't know but to her it felt like forever. She could feel his breath fanning her face, she wanted to dive in for a kiss badly but...

Diana removed her face and started stammering nervously.

" Uhmm... I just wanted...uhmm... to ask if you...uhm...you were not looking so I ..."

Skylar could not comprehend what she wanted to say but he knew he wanted what she wanted as well...badly. 'what could possibly go wrong?' Skylar thought as he caught Diana's head and dived in for a very deep and rough kiss.

Diana could not believe what was happening, she loved this side of Skylar. Domineering. His hand were roaming all over her body why his mouth were leaving trails of rough demanding kisses from her lips down to her neck.

They've reached the bed at this point and Skylar was on top of Diana. His hand went to her squeeze her breasts while he was roughly kissing her. Her body felt so perfect in his hands.

Diana couldn't stop the sounds that escaped her lips. She doesn't know what was happening or how it happened, but she knew she and Skylar were in a compromising situation and she loved every bit of it, not until Skylar hands went to undo the button of her trousers.

Those memories...

She closed her eyes tightly, she couldn't stop the tears.

The memories were as clear as day, it was suffocating.

"Let me go...

I'm so sorry...

Please...

Let me go..."

Diana didn't know that she was screaming by now. She was caged far away in her own memories.

Skylar was shocked by her response. He thought she wanted this just as much as he wanted it. What's the screaming all about?.

" Diana! Diana!! Diana!!! " Skylar started calling out Diana's name while shaking her seeing how wet her face was from all the crying. He didn't know she was crying till now. Did he do something wrong?

Diana came back to her senses when Skylar called her name. When she gained full hold of her reality, she realized what was happening. Skylar and her were supposed to go further but she ruined it.

" I'm so sorry " Diana said as she pushed Skylar, wore some of her clothes that Skylar had removed during their moment and left the room in tears.

'What the hell just happened?!' Skylar sat on the bed as he stared at Diana's disappearing back.
