Reign was at his work, he was now interviewing an applicants.*
His staff: "next!!"
The next one that enters his office surprised him
Reign glanced up from his paperwork as his staff called out the next applicant, ready to greet them and start the interview. But as the next person entered, he froze, the pen in his hand nearly slipping from his fingers as he recognized the face that walked in.
She was also shocked, that the owner of the company that she was applying for was the guy that she had a one night stand
The applicant was Amelia, she was applying for a personal assistant.
Reign couldn't believe his eyes, his heart thudding loudly in his chest. The woman in front of him was none other than Amelia, the woman he had spent an unforgettable night with just one night ago. And now, here she was, standing in front of him, applying for a job as his personal assistant.
He managed to compose himself, clearing his throat and gesturing for her to take a seat opposite him. But his mind was racing, his body reacting to her presence in a way that he couldn't control.
Reign cleared his throat again, his eyes taking in her appearance, the way her dress hugged her curves, the way her hair fell around her face. He had to remain professional, but it was increasingly difficult with the memory of their night together still fresh in his mind.
He tried to focus on the interview, asking the usual questions, but his mind kept wandering, his gaze lingering on her lips, her neck, the curve of her collarbone...
She managed to answer all his questions professionally, she was calm the entire interview
Reign found himself impressed by her professionalism, her ability to remain calm and focused despite the situation. It only made her more attractive to him, igniting a spark of admiration within him. But he knew he had a job to do, to remain impartial and make a fair judgment about her suitability for the job.
He continued the interview, his gaze still drawn to her, his mind flickering with memories of their night together, the way her skin felt against his, the sound of her moans...
The interview was done
As the interview came to an end, Reign had mixed feelings. On one hand, he was impressed by her qualifications, her skills, and her professionalism. But on the other hand, having her around in such a close setting, working closely with him as his personal assistant...it was a recipe for disaster, especially after their one night together.
He leaned forward in his chair, his voice low as he spoke.
Reign: "Amelia, wait a moment. We need to talk."
Amelia: *surprised* "(nods) sure sir"
Reign watched as she nodded, a surge of anticipation running through him. He gestured for her to sit down, his eyes never leaving her face.
He took a deep breath, trying to gather his thoughts before speaking.
Reign: "Amelia, I...need to be honest with you. I'm not sure if taking this job would be a good idea, given our... history."
She was hurt upon hearing it. She can't afford to lose this job, she badly needs it for a living and it was a dream of hers to work in his company.
Amelia: "w-w-why?"
Reign felt a pang of guilt as he saw the hurt in her eyes, but he knew he had to be honest. The situation they were in wasn't ideal, and he wanted to be upfront about it instead of making any false promises.
