Undefiled Queen

She bites her lip looking at her file on my desk and there was a thump in my heart. I arrest the stupid feeling in my heart and tell her softly. “Study well, you have got good grades. If you want any financial help, here is my number. You can call me….” She wouldn’t let me complete my sentence. “I am not a charity case.” She admonishes clearly.

Her words got me stupefied. That was so unexpected from her. I was seeing a new side of Merlyn today. “I am here to seek employment.” She tells me assertively. I gaze at her absolutely bemused. I have never seen a girl of her age so poised and self possessed. Feisty and brave another two admirable qualities of her that I love to note.

She gulps inaudibly meeting my eyes trying to show some confidence and mutters. “Please don’t judge me by the qualifications I am yet to acquire. As you have noted I have got good grades in my previous classes. You can ask me any number of questions and I am confident I will be able to answer them well. Though I have no certificate of graduation in accountancy, I have helped my father innumerable times in the past to make ledgers and balance sheets and also did a certificate course in accountancy because of my interest in the subject.”

I raise my brows looking amused about the positive spirit and the confidence she upholds to apply for the Radiance group of Industries, the top most business firm in spite of not being the least qualified for the post. The guts of the girl…and I have noted it since the beginning. I was clearly inspired by her and decided to not let her spirits die though there was no way she would be absorbed in my firm.

A little smile plays on my lips and I tell her to slip her file on the table. “What is the urgency for you to apply to this job?”

She again started doing that. Fidgeting with her fingers. I circled the table and held her fingers. Holding her hand, I walk her to the visitor’s couch and take her into my lap. At first she was stunned but gradually she gets relaxed and a slow smile plays on her brims.

“Tell me now. What brings you here?”

“I do not want to be a charity case.”

When she was about to play with her fingers, I abruptly stopped her holding her digits again. “You are not a charity case. In fact you are the most dignified woman I have come across. And didn’t I tell you there is nothing to worry about? I’m here and I will take care of you just like I did before.”

She looked at me with those pulchitrudinous blues radiating all the positivity and innocence with her lips slightly parted. Her eyes diverted from my eyes to my lips. My heart skipped a beat. If she does that one more time I knew I cannot stop but was going to kiss her.

She was sitting in my lap with her legs on either side of my waist. I wish she hadn’t noticed it. I was already getting a hard-on and my pants became uncomfortably tight just by her most virginal touch. She has that power on me. My Flower and my everything in this world.

My hands slid to either side of her waist holding her in place as I gaze down at her in affection giving her my undivided attention to find out for what she was here in front of me.

“My uncle is sick. He had met with an accident and is now in a wheelchair. The orthopaedic surgeon told us he needs a surgery where a plate needs to be fixed in his right leg for him to walk again and the cost of the surgery would cause us two millions. My aunt is doing everything in her hands but you know she has four mouths here to feed.”

“What is your situation with your ex-boyfriend?” I couldn’t stop myself to ask.

“I booked a case upon him and my roommate for stealing my money but nothing helped. He has some underworld connections. Anyways…” She sighed “this is not new to me. I have been the most unlucky all my life to rub my nose with the most powerful in the world and get beaten up.”

Culpability to be the reason for her misfortune once again consumed me. Assessing the genuineness of the facts, it was not her misfortune but I was the beast who entered her life to make it the most unbearable. Now it was my duty to protect her by whatever means. “I will help you win the case over your ex.”

“What?” She stared at me unbelievably and I nodded confirming to her. “Yes, you heard it right.”

Her face was worth seeing as she held my face and landed her lips on me. Very soon we were kissing again pouring out the affection we had hidden for each other for such a long time. Her hands caressed my cheeks while mine were running freely on every loop of her body while our lips danced upon each other’s in ecstasy. We were on the seventh heaven ready to forget the world that existed around us.

I was in no position to control myself. I removed the coat and opened the belt of my pant while I continued to smack her. Just as I was about to direct her to the sleeping position on the couch, I got a call from the receptionist. “Sir the employees are assembled here waiting for your orders.”

“Send them back.” I growled on the phone. “It wasn’t their mistake for Merlyn to be here.”Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

“Sure sir.” Rita replied professionally and cut the call. ‘That was right on time, else we would have gone very far’ – I thought.

Balancing herself after the kiss, Merlyn added bringing me out of my frenzied state. “My uncle is like a father to me. Though we are not blood related, he had looked after me and my brother, like his own kids. I would like to do everything in my capacity to bring him out of his present paralyzed state. I had been applying to jobs everywhere when I saw a vacancy here in Radiance industries.”

I sighed. “That’s the post which stays vacant in my company for many long years.” I knew she was looking at me with many questions but nevertheless I continued. “You wouldn’t wish to take any financial help from me and I cannot offer you a job without assessing your efficiency for the post. But understanding you as a sincere and hardworking girl I would like to give you a chance to prove yourself.”

The smile on Merlyn’s face goes unmatched and noting that I was the reason for her happiness I was thrilled. A sense of pride occupied me. At least for once, I became the reason for a smile on her face rather than always giving heartbreaks in her life.

“I wouldn’t be putting any questions to you but considering your positive attitude I wish to give you a chance. This is the monthly statement of one of the branches of our company. The entries here aren’t posted in the right manner. You will readjust them, make ledger accounts and prepare the balance sheet. I give you one hour of time. If your entries are accurate, this job will be yours.” I tell her tenderly, keeping aside all my professionalism and power. “See yourself in the visitors hall outside. Rita will guide you and will also give you the necessary stationary required for your work.”

Was Merlyn going to get what she wanted from Stephen?

Was she going to qualify for the accountant post which was vacant for a long time?

And if she fails to qualify, how was Stephen going to convince her to take his money?
