🔮 Amara 🔮
Her Destiny
| Amara |
Rays of the morning sun flash on my face, I opened my eyes and pulled the blanket away from my body.
I checked the time on my phone which I placed on my nightstand, 9:02am. I overslept!! Am supposed to be at work before 8am. Collin's gonna kill me or maybe fire me. I know one thing for sure, Collins hate slothful employees.
I stood up to my feet and moved to the bathroom in haste and did my regular routine. After cleaning my body with a towel, I moved to my wardrobe and grab a black strapless gown with a white jacket. I didn't hesitate in wearing it because there's no time to debate on what to wear.
I parked my hair up to a high ponytail which almost reached my waist. I carried a black clutch, put on white stiletto heels, grabbed my phone and scurried out of my room.
I couldn't sight Tricia anywhere in the living room. Obviously she has gone to work. I wonder why she decided not to wake me up early this morning, she's so weird at times.
I sigh and glimpsed at the dinning table, looks like she left a note.
I moved closer and picked it up. It reads;
*MORNING PRINCESS. I KNOW YOU MUST BE WONDERING WHY I DIDN'T WAKE YOU UP.....WELL THAT'S BECAUSE YOU WERE BUSY DREAMING ABOUT HIM....*
"I dreamt about Collins?." I utter confusedly. I furrow my brows and read further.
; *YOU MUTTERED HIS NAME AND EVEN SMILED IN YOUR SLEEP. YOU'RE REALLY WEIRD. ANYWAYS I MADE YOU BREAKFAST, ITS IN THE MICROWAVE. HEART YOU.*
I bit my lip and drop the note back on the table. Did I really talk in my sleep??. Maybe I was too surprised and happy to believe Collins gave me a ride home. I shrug it off and walked to the kitchen.
I raced to his office panting heavily. Am so so late, my ankles hurt all thanks to this torture am putting on called heels. I adjust my dress and breathe in twice when I got to the front of his office door.
Am so nervous right now, I took my lips in and knocked on the door with my shaky hand. Who knows what he is gonna do to me?. He dislikes lazy staffs. .
I knocked again when there's no response from inside. Shivers ran down my spine as I heard his husky voice.
"Come in."
I swallowed the dry lump in my throat and twist the door knob. I closed the door behind, he is gazing out his glassy window. He turned swiftly with his hands at his back.
"Good morning sir." I stutter. He didn't respond, I gulp down the saliva in my throat, am dead.
He catwalk towards me, his looks are unpredictable. He stood three metres away from me, I stole a glance at him before lowering my head. He looks so handsome.....
"You're late."
"Am so sorry sir. I slept late and crazy Tricia didn't bothered to wake me up." I replied within me. I remained silent as I crack my brain for a genuine lie.
"Am really sorry sir. The traffic was so bad." I speak up. I looked at him to see his reaction, I was expecting a yell but he just kept mute and stares at me with an unexplainable look.

"Am really sorry sir. The traffic was so bad." She says. I kept staring at her, she looks frightened.
All this time, I found myself staring at the way her lips moved. I can't believe am saying this but I really wanna know how her lips gonna taste like. Its so pink and tempting.
By the way, she looks beautiful in the strapless dress she wore. It makes her curves attractive. Damn!! I can't state why I feel this way towards her. It's like a part of me is connected to her.
Am supposed to be furious at her for arriving late but I feel.....kind of happy she's here. What's up with me!?? For pete's sake i thought I hate latecomers..
"Get to work. Now!." I say not glancing at her.
"Thank you so much sir." She shudders. She looks quite shocked I forgave her, even i do not know why i pardoned her.
She smiles with a small bow and move towards the door. Damn! That smile just melt my heart.
"Hey." I called her back.
"Yes sir?."
"After today's activities, we are heading to my house. There are lots of files to work on. Now leave." I declared.
She nods. "Alright sir."

Its 6:41pm, am done for today....I guess. I got into his car, Bugatti this time. I wonder how many cars he owns...., he is rich anyways.
I sat on the backseat while he drives. The car is so silent like a graveyard. My phone beeped from my clutch, I bought it out and peer at the phone screen. A text from Tricia.
*Where are you?? If you're with Collins then do not bother in coming back home.. You guys need to make Fiona, so spend as much time you need. Bye, love ya.*
I rolled my eyes and kept my phone back into my clutch.
I got down from his car and viewed his big compound. Whoa..this mansion looks so awesome!!. This place is more beautiful than his house in Canada.
I followed him behind holding his briefcase as he walks to his front porch with his hands tucked in his pockets. We entered into his living room, it's wow......
"Hey Collins." Someone squeals. I looked up to see a red haired lady descending down the stairs. Collins smiles when she got close to us, she hasn't noticed my presence yet. The black crop top she wore fits her well exposing her bellybutton. She has lots of tattoos on her body....who is she???.
"How was work today?." The lady asked politely.
"Good." Collins reply and face me.
" This is my cousin Laura. Laura meet my secretary Amara." Collins says as she turns quickly to face me at the mention of my name.
"Hello." I greet.
She furrows her brows and smiled afterwards. 'Hi."
