Chapter 1 First Meet

Selena Ryder' POV :

I heard some music playing as soon as I opened my eyes. a song that I know very well and also I like.

I jumped out of bed to the off key singing of my best friend Callista. I got up rubbing my eyes in an attempt to rid them of the blurriness from being awoken too early. I walked down the stairs of our three bedroom apartment to find Callista singing her heart out while making pancakes. Normally I would start laughing my ass off at her for trying to sing but this I felt needed special attention.

I quietly sneaked back to my room and grabbed my phone. Coming back down the stairs I his partially behind the wall putting my phone on video recorder. I began to record her all the while trying not to laugh my ass off.

Callista was a blonde haired beauty with blue eyes and pink lips. She was around 5 foot 7 inches, a whole inch taller than me. Most people thought blondes were dumb airheads who had not one idea about what was happening around them but Callista wasn't like that. If anything she was one of the most hardworking people that I've ever met.

She always puts others before herself and was really funny when she wanted to be of course. I watched her as she jumped around to the bass of a hip hop song that is currently popular. Did I forget to mention that she loves to rap. She knows all of the latest rap hits as if it was her symphony.

I couldn't help it this time so I did the unthinkable. I laughed. I laughed so loud that she jumped and turned around surprised to find me standing there. I quickly hid my phone and shuffled my feet nervously.

"Morning." I mumbled to her shifting from side to side.

"Hey!" she smiled brightly at me, a little too brightly for me.

"Did I wake you?" asked piling pancakes on a plate before handing it to me.

"No, I woke up all by myself." I said annoyed.

"We humans tend to do that." she smiled the sarcasm not lost on me.

We stared at each other a good few seconds before we both burst out laughing.

"What's the plan for today?" she asked me while sipping a cup of coffee.

"I don't know what'd you have in mind?"

"I'm not sure. It's 7 now so you tell me."

"What ??!!" I gasped grabbing my phone to check the time and just like Callista said it was seven o'clock.

"Oh crap!!" I groaned stuffing a pancake in my mouth before running up the stairs and straight to my room.

I headed straight for my closet and started to go through all the clothes I had. I just threw them on the bed one after the other. I didn't even notice when Callista came into the room.

"Hey are you." I cut her off when I accidentally threw a black jacket in her face.

"Well." she said as she took the jacket from her face "that answers that question"

"Lo siento mucho pero."

"Woah hold up." She said her hands in the air as if to stop my words.

"Deep breaths." She spoke as she pulled me to sit in a chair in the room.

"In." I followed her instructs taking in a deep breath.

"Out." I exhaled slowly, that was pretty relaxing.

"Now tell Mama what's wrong?"

I took a deep breath before I spoke, "Remember that interview I have to be the assistant to the CEO of Arthur Corp?"

"I remember."

"Well, its today at 9 and I'm not ready yet. I didn't even remember until you mentioned the time." I rushed freaking out.

"Hey! Don't freak out, we got this."

She turned around and quickly glanced around the room before turning back to me a smile on her face.

"Up. Off you go." She said while pulling me towards the bathroom.

"What am I going to wear?" I asked a pout on her face.

"Leave that too me." She said a smirk on her face.

"Oke." I mumbled confused to her expression.

I closed the door behind me and quickly shed my clothes. I took a quick shower all the while making sure to not wet my hair. Stepping out of the shower I grabbed a towel and quickly dried myself. I wrapped the towel around me and stepped into the room.

"Great your done." She squealed, "Put these on. You can borrow my black pumps to go with it, I'll go get them."

I silently watched as she left the room. I went into my chest of drawers and took out a matching pair of black undergarment. I quickly donned the outfit that Callista picked out for me and I've got to say that I'm loving it. Its a black knee length skirt with a red camisole and black jacket, the very one I accidentally hit her with.

"Here we are." She said as she handed me the shoes.

"Take this too." She told me holding out a red handbag for me, "I already put in everything you'll need like your phone, charger, notepad."

"Oh my gosh." I squealed, "Thank you so much."

"Its no problem." She smiled before a slow smirk took over her face, "It's time for make up."

I groaned when she said mentioned it.

I hate make up.

The kiss grew more passionate as he felt her warm supple body pressing against his chest. He couldn't believe how soft she was. He was gentler this time, making love to her with a slow, languorous pace, pausing now and then to check the expression on her face. Kira was. transported. She no longer felt the fabric of the sheets underneath her. One moment, she was floating in the air, cuddled by cotton candy clouds. The next, she'd become one with a dinghy, bobbing up and down with the undulating waves. His scent enveloped her. He was on top of her, using his arms to support his weight and avoid crushing her. She snuggled up closer to him, safe and snug, cocooned in his warmth. Kira had always marvelled at Austyn's stamina, but he outdid himself tonight. In the midst of overwhelming rapture, Kira still had the presence of mind to broach the subject she'd been meaning to bring up. 'My dad's medical bills.' Austyn paused. He frowned as he looked into those beseeching eyes. 'It'll be taken care of by the end of business day tomorrow,' he said with a bit of an edge in his voice. Kira breathed out. ****** She is a 21-year-old college student who dreams of becoming a journalist. He is the heir of the McCarthy family and president of a business empire. She is bright-eyed and vivacious, a glass-half-full kind of gal. When life throws her a curveball, she knocks it out of the park. He is the archetypal alpha male, aggressive and domineering. Endowed with both brains and brawn, he steamrolls over his enemies and rules his company with an iron fist. The two would never have crossed paths if not for a cruel twist of fate. Kira's world was turned upside down when her father was hospitalised after a car accident. The medical bills were astronomical. Austyn McCarthy offered her a way out. The price: becoming his contract wife. At night, he consummated their marriage but called out another woman's name. Who was she? Why did Austyn marry Kira if he was in love with someone else? Kira was his lawful wife, but she had no right to ask these questions. Then one day, the woman showed up in front of her.
