Tessa Jones just graduated college. She was excited to get an interview with a top tech company. On a night of celebration of her new job, she was almost r***d by a creep in an alley. An unknown man saved her just before her life would have been changed forever. Tessa ended up having her first one night stand with this man. The next morning she started her new job as a third assistant to the CEO. When she met her new boss she was shocked......

Chapter 1 The Celebration

I just graduated college in California and moved back to Washington.

I had only been back home for 2 weeks and already went on over 45 interviews. Unfortunately, I was not offered any of the positions as I was fresh out of college and didn't have much experience.

I was able to secure an interview with a well known tech company as a third assistant to the CEO. Even though this role was not associated with my degree, it got my foot in the door.

It still would not be an easy application. I only got the interview because my best friend works for the company in human resources and was able to pull some strings. I am technically not even qualified for this position but at this point I am applying to anything.

I sat in the waiting room for my interview.

"Ms. Tessa Jones, they are ready for you in the conference room."

"Thank you" I said as I walked past her and into the room.

This room was quite large and somewhat fancy. I immediately noticed two people sitting at the desk with a video camera setup. I could tell they sensed my confusion.

"Hello Ms. Jones. My name is Charles, and this is Julia. The interview will be videotaped as Grayson, the CEO cannot be here for the interview process. Are you ok with this?"

I have been on lots of interviews, and this was the first, but I will do anything to get a job at this point.

"Absolutely" I said as I sat down.

It was to the point, and I felt it went a little quicker than my other interviews. I didn't know if this was a good thing or a bad thing.

"We will be making the decision by Friday at 5pm and you will start first thing Monday morning. Will this be an issue?" Charles asked.

"I can start any time you need me!" With that, I left the building.

I text my friend Alyssa who works in the building to see if she could meet me for lunch.

Me: {Hey, just finished my interview. Can you meet downstairs at the café for lunch?}

Alyssa: {I will be right down!}

I grabbed a seat at a table and waited for her.

She walked in and yelled loudly "Tessa! How was it? Are you excited? I really hope we get to work in the same building!"

"It was short, and they told me that they would let me know by Friday at 5pm." I told her.

"Oh, but it's only Wednesday. You have to wait that long?" she asked.

"They probably have so many people interested and that are probably more qualified. I am not keeping my hopes up." I said.

Just then, my phone rang. I did not know the number, but I quickly answered.

"Hello, this is Charles Johnson, is this Tessa jones?"

I quickly answered "Yes, it is."

"Ms. Jones our CEO Grayson Foster was impressed with your interview, and he would like to offer you the position of his third assistant."

Before Charles could finish talking, I said "Yes, I would love to!"

"Great, please arrive at 7am sharp on Monday so we can get paperwork filled out before your normal shift of 8-5." he said.

Alyssa overheard me and grabbed my arm and whispered, "We are celebrating tonight!"

We finished lunch, Alyssa went back to work, and I decided to go shopping for some new work clothes. I got home around 5. Alyssa text me when she got off work.

Alyssa: {Let's meet at Crown bar tonight to celebrate!"}

Me: {ok!!} I agreed and started getting ready for the evening.

I arrived at the bar around 8pm. Alyssa was seated not far away with a few mutual friends. Jacob, who I have known since grade school and Cicely who I met freshman year of college.

Alyssa saw me and waved me over. They had already ordered me a drink to toast.

Alyssa spoke up "Congratulations to Tessa, she beat out the competition and she will move her way up quickly at Foster Technologies."

We raised our glasses and drank.

Shortly thereafter I realized I did not have a significant dinner and was feeling quite drunk. I decided to go to the bar to get some water. I was waiting in line when I was bumped into by a drunk, sleazy guy.

"Excuse you!" I yelled at him.

He turned and looked at me. He had this dark lust in his eyes, and it made me nervous. I quickly turned around to avoid him. He then grabbed my arm to turn me around towards him.

He looked me up and down and said, "what is a sexy woman like you doing standing all alone?"

His eyes were looking at me as if he was undressing me in his mind and all I wanted was to go back to my table.

"Can I buy you a dri...?"

Before I let him finish the sentence, I turned around to leave and head back to my table. He quickly ran in front of me, and I slammed into him.

"My boyfriend is waiting for me, and he will not be happy that I am talking to you!" I yelled at him.

I pointed at the group I was with, and they waved at me. He let me by when he noticed that I was indeed not alone at the bar.

I purposefully sat next to our friend Jacob. I made it seem like he was my boyfriend to keep that creep from contacting me anymore. I glanced at him and noticed he was not paying me any attention anymore and felt at ease.

Alyssa asked me "What was with that guy just now? Do you know him?"

I explained that I did not know him, and he gave me really weird vibes and I just wanted to get away from him as soon as possible. I told him Jacob was my boyfriend in hopes that, that will end his pursuit for the evening.

Jacob laughed and said "Luckily my boyfriend isn't here tonight, or your plan could have been ruined."

Hours had passed and we had all drank quite a bit.

Jake and Cicely decided it was time to go home. They lived close by each other, so they shared an uber.

Me and Alyssa were the only ones left. We finished our drink and headed out. We both lived somewhat close to the bar, so we walked home.

We arrived at Alyssa's apartment. We hugged and said our goodbyes. I only lived a few blocks away and the streets were still pretty busy on a Friday night, so I felt safe walking the few blocks by myself.

As I was walking, someone grabbed me and pulled me into the darkness of the alley. He covered my mouth so I couldn't scream.

Victoria was about to graduate high school and move to Los Angeles with her mom to pursue her dream of being an actress. But disaster struck and her mom was murdered. The murder remained unsolved with no leads. So, Victoria left everything behind and never looked back. She met the perfect guy who was handsome, famous and rich. Her life seemed picture perfect in Hollywood, until her past caught up with her. ** It was the day before my 18th birthday when my mother was murdered. It appeared to be a home invasion. I should have been home, but I had a school project due and stayed late at the library. It is hard not to think of the "what if's". What if I was home, would I have been killed too? What if I could have saved her? The guilt I feel for not being there engulfs me some days. I never knew my father and I do not have any siblings. It was just me and my mom. The only other family I had was my best friend, Theo. We have known each other since we were little and talk every day. After graduation, me and my mom were going to move to Los Angeles together. My lifelong dream was to be a famous actress in Hollywood. Theo didn’t want me to go. He would always say that I was too good for Hollywood and that it would ruin me one day. But I felt all alone now and wanted nothing more than to leave. Theo tried convincing me to stay. He told me that I would have regrets leaving without knowing who my mother's killer was. But the police had zero leads and I had nothing left here in this small town. He tried getting me to stay for him, but I just wanted to be away from everything and everyone who reminded me of home and my mom. I know it hurt him, but it hurt me more to stay. So, after graduation I left for California and never looked back. Theo would text me every day. At first, I would respond, but after a while I stopped and so did he. Years had passed and I did a good job of forgetting my old life. I just celebrated my 22nd birthday and you would think by now that I would have some acting gigs under my belt. But I found out very quickly how hard it is to break into show business. All the money I got from my mom's passing had run out and I had to take odd jobs to make ends meet. I worked at a diner for a while. Then I got a job at a fancy boutique. This is where I got my big break and met Charles Sampson. He was shopping for his wife and was saying how his assistant had just quit due to a family emergency and he was in desperate need of a new one. Charles was in his 60's but he had a long acting career under his belt and just landed a major role in a successful series. I jumped at the opportunity as this could be a great stepping stone for me to land an acting role. Plus, I could learn a lot from him. I felt like things were finally looking up for me. I had been working for Charles for a few weeks and today was the day we got to go on set for filming. I was beyond excited and really nervous. "Victoria, please stop playing with your hair." Charles said. "I am so sorry." I said as I put my hands under my legs so I couldn't do it again. It was one of my nervous habits and was hard to control. "You will do great. You do not need to be nervous. If anything, I should be the one being nervous." he said as he laughed. There were a lot of big named actors and actresses on this show, and I was excited but scared to meet them. So far, Charles is the biggest celebrity I have ever met. The car dropped us off at the entrance of the set for today. We both walked in and were greeted by the producer. She had her assistant show us to his fitting room. As we were walking by the suites, I glanced at the name on the wall outside of one of the doors and saw Luca Hayes. I have had a crush on him for as long as I can remember. I couldn"t believe I was walking by his fitting room. The door was open, and I peeked in. He was pulling a shirt over his head and all I could see was his toned abs. I didn't stop staring until his shirt covered them. I quickly looked up and we made eye contact. I could feel my face heat up and immediately turn red. He had this cute smirk on his face, and I looked away and left as fast as I could. I was so embarrassed. He probably thought I was some weirdo, just staring at him. I wouldn't be surprised if I had drool coming out of my mouth. I hurried and caught up with Charles and the assistant. We arrived at his fitting room and his stylist was ready for him. I didn"t need to be there for this so I asked, "Is there somewhere that I can set up my laptop to work on emails?” The assistant showed me to a communal area with food, wifi and a lounge area. "Be careful with him. He is known to make you feel special, but it is all a lie." She said as she walked away. I looked up from my laptop and saw Luca walking toward me. I didn’t dare say a word and just looked back at my screen. "Did you like what you saw?" he asked. I kept my eyes down and said. "I don't know what you are talking about.”

For as long as Emily can remember, she has wanted to overcome her shyness and explore her sexuality. Still, everything changes when she receives an invitation to visit one of the town's most prestigious BDSM clubs, DESIRE'S DEN. On the day she chose to peruse the club, she noticed three men, all dressed in suits, standing on the upper level, near the railing. Despite her limited vision, she persisted in fixating on them. Their towering statues belied the toned bodies concealed by their sharply tailored suits-or so she could tell. The hair of two of them was short and dark, and the third had light brown-possibly blond-hair that reached the shoulders. The dark, crimson background incised their figures, exuding an air of mystery and strength. They stood in stark contrast to the unfiltered, primal energy that pulsed through the club. Shocked by the desires these men aroused in her, she was disappointed to learn that they were masters seeking a slave to divide and conquer. She couldn't afford the fee, and she also realized that they were outside her league. Emily hurriedly left the club, feeling disappointed and depressed, unaware that she had also caught the group's attention. A world of wicked pleasure, three handsome men. Over the years, they have lived a life of decadence, their lavish lair serving as a stage for their most sinister desires. But despite the unending parade of willing subjects, one woman sticks out. A mysterious stranger with white porcelain skin and a killer body, a slave, a name with no address, the first lady to attract their eye and they will go to any length to obtain her no matter the consequences.
