Besotted

Chapter 3

I am independent and your words can't cage me.

"Ms. Carter bring me the account file Immediately" Mr. Theller spoke from the other line.

"Right away Sir" I said before the line got disconnected. I couldn't help the sarcasm the sneaked its way into my voice. Oh well!

I took the file which he asked me to bring and made my way towards his Cabin. I knocked on his door and went in after hearing his husky "Come in" voice.

"Sir, your file" I said as I put the file on his table.

He nodded and took the file opening it and started going through each page of the file.

"Go bring me a black coffee" he ordered with his usual glare. I pouted, well aware of his intent eyes on me, irritated by his lack of respect but gave up when I knew there was nothing that I can do about it so reluctantly i nodded my head before leaving his room.

I made my way towards the coffee machine and made his black coffee. I poured his coffee in the mug, wondering if I should add poison or salt to this coffee but decided against it as I still needed money and for that I needed an employer no matter how arrogant and cocky he can be. I made my way back to his cabin, taking a deep breath and asking God to bless me with the ability to tolerate his bull shit.

I entered his room after knocking, a habit of mine which started from the day I joined this Bank.

He was so engrossed in that file that he didn't even bothered looking up at me.

"Sir your coffee" I said offering him his mug.

"Hmm Keep it here" he said without even looking up at me. I nodded saying "Okay" and kept his coffee before him on his table.

Damn, I must say the way his eyes were narrowed like he was in deep concentration was making me hot. He looked so handsome and fierce. I couldn't help but stare even though it was so unprofessional and so unlike me. The way he bit his full rep lips, deep in thought was so fucking hot. What the hell was I thinking? He is my damn boss and here I am appreciating his sexiness and manliness. The way his muscles bulged under his every move. The shirt did nothing to hide the fact that this man had a delicious body. Oh god help me! This man knew how to infuriate me and find a way to get under my skin but still I couldn't help but be attracted to him. But that's all its going to be. A simple harmless attraction because someone as powerful and hot like him would never glance my way. Its a shame he had to be a jerk otherwise me and him would of gotten along just fine.

"Anything else do you want me to do Sir?" I asked and waited patiently for him to reply.

"No it's enough. You can go" he muttered still engrossed in his file.

"Okay Sir" I said and turned to leave. I was half way to the door but stopped when I heard him yelp.

I turned around immediately only to find him wincing due to the coffee spilt on his table.

"Sir!" I panicked running to him.

I took his hand with was burnt due to the hot coffee and carefully examined it. I found it red and already tender.

"Sir are you alright?" I asked him worriedly.

"Yeah I thi-" he began but I cut him off saying "Oh no! It burnt really bad".

Using the office phone I called the receptionist to bring me the first aid kit and to be quick. I dragged Mr. Theller to his attached bathroom and checked whether the water was cold from the tap.
