Teach Me, Mr. CEO the end
EMBER"But I never talked to you because I knew I didn't deserve you yet. You were all I could imagine wanting and it only grew after that night when I tried to make you stay but you left the next morning. I knew I'd see you again and I was determined to have you the next chance I got with you," Zaire said with a grin because she knew he meant that the next chance meant them right at that moment."I.. had no idea.. but.. why me?" She asked, not being able to understand."You're seriously asking me that question? Have you ever known yourself enough? What exactly do you think you don't have? You're perfect, you're absolutely perfect. And you're the only one I need. I'm sorry for all the times I've hurt you, it was all because of shortcomings. But none of that would happen again. I promise to keep you happy with all I have," he said and it sounded so genuine, it wrenched Ember's guts. She was too high up on the clouds."I think I'm falling for you," Ember let the words slip out."Glad. I'
Teach Me, Mr. CEO Humiliated
Ember felt the chilled splash of the drink seeping into her clothes as she closed her eyes shut tight, shrinking within herself. She couldn't believe this was happening. She stood in the middle of the college canteen, trembling with shock and betrayal as the whole cafeteria laughed at her."Look at how delusional this bitch is, she really thought I would ever look at a girl like her," Will Thompson said, the guy Ember has spent all her life loving. His words made the cafeteria laugh twice as harder, making Amy step up. She was the one who had splashed the whole drink on Ember the moment she had walked closer to Will."Just look at how pathetic she looks, it's so funny!" Amy shoved Ember and she stumbled a few steps back. "Thank you for being so fucking dumb, nerd. You made Will win the bet."Something zapped in Ember's brain as she looked up, startled. Her mind went blank until she couldn't hear words but she could see Will and his friends laughing as they handed Will money. She just s
Teach Me, Mr. CEO The stranger knows my name
EMBERShe stepped back and plunged her hand into her backpack. She remembered stashing all her lifelong savings inside it after she ran away from the cafeteria. She grabbed a handful and tossed the dollar bills at him. The money splattered all around him as he sat as he had already predicted it. She fumed with anger because her feelings came to the surface. She couldn't stand being tested again.Jack sighed as he sat up straight. He looked to his side and motioned slightly to make the other men come running. They kneeled and started picking up the money from the floor. Jack stood up, towering over her with his height and built. Not only was he devastatingly handsome, but he was also well built with broad shoulders and muscles that his shirt struggled to hold. He had sharp features, a defined body and his eyes were dreamy but scary.That's when Jack reached over, grabbed her hand and pulled her close to him. He smoothly locked her hands by twisting them behind her back till she was pre
Teach Me, Mr. CEO We meet again
EMBEREmber felt herself waking up, her senses rushing back. As her eyes parted, she stared up at the ceiling of the unfamiliar room. She could also feel a sharp pain throbbing on her back, making her shiver. With all the strength she could gather, she sat up, the blanket falling off her body. She clutched it back up but only then did she realize, she wasn't naked. Her clothes were back on her perfectly. She rolled slightly to her side but she wasn't surprised to see it empty. She was all alone in that room. The room she spent last night doing things she would've never imagined doing. But he was gone. And then dawned the consequence of what she had done. When she looked to her side, the memories from last night reeling in front of her eyes back to back, she spotted something on the small bedside table. She pulled herself to the corner of the bed and picked up the envelope placed on the table. Carefully, she opened it and looked inside, her eyes widened.A bundle of dollar bills.Sh
Teach Me, Mr. CEO The Stone Cold CEO
EMBERFired? Did she even hear it right? What was going on?Selene smirked a little as she snatched back her purse from Ember's and started walking away. The man's ocean blue eyes lingered on hers with a slight frown before he started walking away as well. She stood there, dumbstruck.He had to be the CEO. No one else would have that authority. He was.. none other than.. Zaire Langston Hughes, the CEO and founder of Sarte group of companies. From what Ember had researched about him, she knew he belonged to a rich and well known family but he has built the company Sarte with his own hardwork and money.His family had no contribution to his success, he was a known one man army, one of the youngest billionaires and business tycoon. But she never saw his face before. There was too little about his appearance on the internet, he seemed like the type to love his privacy.But she snapped back from her thoughts and she bolted towards him. She couldn't let her dream be shattered before it eve
Teach Me, Mr. CEO Ruthless
EMBER"Calm down," he said. But did he have any idea what he was doing to her? "Take a deep breath."His tight grip around her body, his fingers brushing through her hair, and his warm breath against her skin. Her breath was caught, the tingles taking over her body. She felt her knees going weak so she clutched her hands tightly on his shirt and hung closer, her face turning to bury on his chest. She knew she was calming down. She couldn't even bear to look at him with her face burning red. Suddenly, the elevator thudded and a shrill noise played. It had cleared up, it wasn't stuck anymore. But before Ember could realize it, Zaire's grip loosened and he stepped back immediately, leaving her wanting his warmth back. He stood facing straight as he fixed his collar and grey suit. With just one run of his fingers through his hair, it was back to perfection, a single strand falling on his forehead majestically. She shook her head and positioned herself back to normal. Her mouth opened a
Teach Me, Mr. CEO Caught in his trap
EMBERThe footsteps entered the room, making her heart threaten to leap out. She crawled into the little space under the desk and through the small gap, she peeked out. Zaire had entered the cabin, his pace neutral. She heard a ruffling noise of the papers as he lingered around the desk for some time. Ember's blood ran dry in fear of what would happen if he noticed that the file was missing. She held her breath, making sure to not make a single noise.He stopped for a minute, she couldn't see what he was doing. But then, he started walking towards the door, making Ember sigh with relief. But that was short-lived. Instead, she watched him close the door shut and lock it.Her heart sank as she watched him move towards the window, she heard him shut the drapes. He waited a moment before stepping close to the desk again. Ember held on for dear life."Come out, Ms. Campbell," he said with a calm tone that was scarier. Shivers ran through her body, it was one thing being caught, it was anot
Teach Me, Mr. CEO The CEO's torment
EMBER It felt like Ember had stepped into her apartment after years. The day had been so hectic and.. confusing that she had no idea what to think anymore.She freshened up and ordered some pizza, setting up the couch with blankets and two wine glasses on the table. Ruby Reinhard, her best friend of 5 years, lived right next to her apartment. They usually had movie nights like that.But today, Ember doubted there would be any movie, she needed to let out a lot of her mind.Ruby arrived half an hour later with some food and wine, wrapping her in a hug first thing. That was the first time Ember had felt at ease the whole day."Loosen up, idiot. Mommy's here to solve all your problems like a fucking genie," Ruby chuckled. She helped herself inside, plopping on the couch with her head on the armrest. "What would I ever do without you?" Ember poured themselves some wine and the night started. She talked a lot, rambling and whining, while Ruby listened. But then, for the first time that da
