Secured Sevenfold

Josephine’s POV
The drive to the office building was okay, we didn’t get into another argument, yet. I thought that after this horrible morning the day couldn’t get any worse anyway. I walked into the main office building and got some confused looks but since I was the vice boss of this company, not many people questioned why I was showing up with this tattooed and pierced guy.

At least I could convince him to wear something fancy and we didn’t have a big argument about it, most of his tattoos were covered, only the ones on his hands were free, but I could deal with that.
I asked him to also remove the piercing but he just smirked at me and asked if I would be willing to let my hair down and wear jeans to work. I could only shake my head, what does the one thing has to do with the other?!
Like really?!

I keep on believing that this guy was just here to piss me off, so I was glad when my I moved to my office, I could work without much interruptions for at least one hour...
Now Zacky began to walk around my office room and I was glad that nobody could watch in and see him pacing and looking at every corner.
“Do you have to walk around so much? I need to concentrate!” I told him and Zack looked at me with a lifted eyebrow.
“Yes, I have to check for any lacks in the security. Who is responsible for the security of the building? Can I talk to someone who is taking care of all the exits?” Zacky asked me and my mouth hung open.
Was he really serious, this is an office building, what could happen to me here?!
“Are you kidding me?” I asked him finally and he shook his head.
“Fine, I will just talk to the facility manager, he can tell me who I have to talk to.” Zacky pulled his phone out and looked at me expectantly.
“What?”
“The number.” He tapped his foot on the floor.
“From whom?”
“Oh my god, Josephine, I thought you would be the director or something of this whole company, are you only the quoting woman in the management or what?” He asked with a smirk and I saw red.
“OUT OF MY OFFICE! NOW!” I never felt this angry, well… never wasn’t quite right, when I was with my sister I sometimes had the same feeling, maybe we should have exchanged the bodyguards, he could have made a good match for my sister, but not me…

He just stood there, still having this stupid grin on his face and I couldn’t believe it
“I said get out!”
I tried to be calm and not freak out completely, I was still at my office, I should remain my calm.
“You won’t get rid of me. I told you this before, we are not here to become friends. I am here to protect you, part of that is checking for exits, talking to other security personnel, I might even go and check out some of your colleagues if I feel like it. You better behave yourself or I will make this only worse for you.” Zack said casually like he didn’t just threaten to fuck up my work day completely.
“Alright, listen Zachary. I have a meeting in about 5 minutes. If I give you the number of the head of security, will you talk to him quietly without rousing too much attention to this whole situation? This is all embarrassing enough. One more thing… When I am in my meetings, I am begging you that you will stay out and not talk to any of my colleagues or business partners. This is really important for me, please.”
“Oh I like the sound of please from your mouth. Fine, give me the number and show me to the room, I will check it before the meeting starts and wait outside. I saw that most rooms are with glass windows anyway so I can have an eye out for you.”
“Perfect. Here is the number.” I held the number from the security company responsible for this building out and Zack took it with a smile.
“Wasn’t so hard, was it?!” He asked and I rolled my eyes. I had to concentrate on work again now. This man was taking me out of my concentration, I didn’t need that. I got to this position this young because I was focused, I lived for my job, spend all my time to the job, making sure everything was handled the way I wanted it. I wasn’t rewarded best young businesswoman of the year when I was only 25 for no reason.

I put my head in my hands and sighed, then again… Sometimes I was wondering if I didn’t miss out on things. I didn’t really had a careless time in college, I was always working hard, never attended any parties, never had a one night stand. I only dated the reasonable man, the man that would look good on me.
I thought about those piercing green eyes of Zack, he annoyed me like crazy, but those eyes looked amazing, it seemed like he could look right through me with those eyes. How would it feel like if he would look at you with those eyes when they looked at you loving? Or when he was making love to you? Full of lust? I shook my head, what was I thinking, even wondering how it would feel to kiss those pierced lips? How it would feel if the cold metal would touch your skin when he would trail kisses down your body?
Damn it Josephine! You don’t need this distraction, you don’t need sex like Jacky needs it, you are a smart woman, you are better than that!

Zack’s POV
This day had been so damn long, and too damn boring, and the worst thing… it still wasn’t over. Josephine was still in a meeting, which had started ages ago, and looked far from finished. I was outside of the meeting room, it had large windows and I could keep my eye out for her as she was first doing a presentation and after discussed about several ideas, she had written down at the big screen behind her.
Even though that business attitude of her had no attraction to me at all, you could see she was in her comfort zone here, she knew what she was doing and you could see it in her posture, it gave her power and that confidence made her beautiful, it was something I couldn’t deny. I just couldn’t figure out what why she had such a big stick up her ass. She was so tense all the time, so afraid to lose control. I was wondering what her sister would be like, they did look a little alike in their features, but that was all that could give away they’re relatives.
I decided to call Brian to hear how he was doing.

“Vengeance, what up?” Brian answered after the first ring
“Not much, I just thought I call you, before I do something I regret” he sighed and heard Brian chuckle at the other end
“So, she wasn’t as stiff as she seemed huh? I know exactly what you are talking about! The young one is pushing herself to me every chance she gets”
“NO! Not like that! Not at all like that! Josephine is a handful, she is letting me obey all her crazy rules and I have been attending stupid, dead boring meetings all day.. I could just shake her to loosen up a little, this situation will get out of hand soon if she doesn’t”
“Just do your job man, be a professional, you know how to handle businessmen like her” Brian laughed at his own joke and I could only roll my eyes.
“But what’s that with you and the younger one?”
“Nothing much, she practically forced herself to me, and to be honest, I was tempted, I mean, she is hot man, and you couldn’t see yesterday, but she’s tatted… she has monsters too….”
I knew that tone, he could tell me all he wanted, but I knew better, he would have a hard time if she kept coming on to him
“Don’t do anything stupid Gates”
“I won’t. I know what Matt said, I know the rules. I will keep them.”
“What did you do today? I mean, this job is kinda boring…”
“I hung around here, installing the stuff Christ brought, while Jacky was in her room, I guess mocking because I wouldn’t do her. Now I’m waiting for her to get ready, she wants to go out tonight. Real boring indeed, this job” He smirked
“Ah fuck you, you are always getting the nice jobs, talk to you later, asshole!”

After my very unsatisfying talk with Brian I hung up the phone and was interrupted by a scraping of a throat. Josephine was towering over where he was sitting, arms crossed over her chest, mad look on her face
“What did I tell you about your language? This is a business environment, I’m the vice president, I can’t use someone like you, who makes me look bad!”
I sighed “No one was here! It’s late, normal people are at home already, sitting on their couches, enjoying their nights”
Josephine shook her head and turned around to the meeting room again. When she was halfway gone she turned around.
“I will be done in 20 minutes” I nodded at her “Oh and Zack, sit up straight” She turned around and walked away, hips swaying. Did she just fucking told me to sit up straight!?

I looked at her through the glass, she was alone now, all the others had left and she was systematically putting away her stuff, cleaning the room as she went, cleaning the board, turning of the beamer, doing some last things on her laptop. The lights went down in the room, and Josephine’s face was only lit by the light of her laptop.
This light would be perfect to have some fun at, it was dark, nobody was here, you could definitely do some things you wouldn’t usually use these offices for. I looked at Jospehine, she was focused on her computer and she bit her lip, her neck tense. My hands were itching to massage the tension out, letting her hair down, and then move my hands to her shoulders, her back. I could bend her over the table and just force her to relax a little, I could make her, I knew I could. I would put small kisses on her neck, let my fingers slide past that business suit she was wearing, those little buttons of her blouse would have to go soon, she was so tense, I would make her give into me without even taking my clothes off, I wasn’t only skilled at security. I grinned at the thought of her finally relaxing.

Then I saw her standing up and heading my way with a annoyed face. Shit! What the hell was l doing?! Fantasizing about her?! Damn, I needed to get laid, this was ridiculous! She came walking out “I’m ready to go, you can dream in your own time. Look alive Zachary”

As soon as we entered her apartment she sat down in her chair and looked at me.
“This won’t be working out, I will call my father now and tell him I won’t be needing your services anymore” she spoke coldly. She looked in her phone book and put the phone to her ear. I knew what she would get… A big fat nothing… and for a moment I felt sorry for her, not knowing her dad had already disappeared.

“I can’t seem to get a hold of him. You know what… I want your boss’ number. I will call him, tell him to get you back to the office and leave me alone”
I smiled sweetly at her, while I wrote down Matt’s number, let her call him, that should be fun.
