Nikolai's POV

"No luck huh?" Prince asked as his voice sounded from the speaker.

"Not at all. I've only interviewed five people so far, and still nothing. I wish you were here to help, I hate it when you leave."

"Me too. But you know I gotta do..."

"... what you gotta do."

"That's right. My little damsel in distress, I'm sorry baby."

"Damsel?" I slightly laughed. "More like designer."

"Mm, that sounds better. I'm sure someone will come along soon. You all are coming to the Raleigh show right?"

"Of course. You in my hometown? We wouldn't miss that."

"And you know I'll be back home for the holidays. Maybe if you haven't hired someone by then I can help you out."

"Sounds good babe. I know one thing."

"What's that?" He questioned.

"If I don't have an assistant by January then I'm assed out."

"Come on Nikolai don't say that."

"Hey I'm only stating the truth. Debuting a new line and store isn't easy." I sighed. "This is stressing me out Prince."

His throat cleared. "Maybe I can help ease that stress for the time being."

"Hm?"

"You're in your office right?"

"Yes. Why?"

"Is the door closed?"

"Yes... Prince why are you-"

"Is it locked?"

"No."

"Go lock the door sugar."

I followed through with his instructions but questioned his reasoning for questioning me.

"It's locked. Prince why are you asking me all of this?"

He ignored me.

"Good, now I want you to go over and relax on the sofa."

I did.

"Alright I'm on the sofa."

"Now lay back. Go on and pull your skirt up."

"Wait.." I chuckled to myself. "Is this your idea of helping me relieve my stress? And how do you know I'm wearing a skirt?"

"It's Monday mama you're always showing off those legs on Mondays. And to answer your first question yes. If I were there you know I'd handle it right away..."

My throat went dry. "Ah.."

"... so this is my way of doing so. Panties off yet?"

"Nope."

He laughed while his voice deepened a tad more. "Take them off or push them to the side. It's all up to you."
