Bound By Contract

Amayra's Pov

"Good morning," I greet Mariha, as I come and sit beside her and give her the cup of coffee I brought along with me. She grins accepting the coffee as I sip my favorite Starbucks special caffè latte I bring daily on my way to the office.

Having a master's in Computer Engineering and doing a job at Kapoor Elite Security pays me well, even if Rudra Kapoor is a pain in the ass and an annoying rude boss, he pays me well, really well actually and I sometimes wonder if what I do for him, as in the work I do for him is not worth the amount of money he pays me. Even Mariha does the same work I do, and her salary is not as much as mine but I don't have any complaints.

"Good Morning, I hope you slept well because the boss looked really angry today, and he was calling for you," Mariha says and I groan, slamming the cup of coffee, my mood suddenly going down as I glare at our boss's cabin. 

When is he ever in a good mood?

"What happened now?" I ask, opening my laptop and putting on my glasses, I mostly wear contacts, but today I was feeling way too lazy to wear them and so I decided to wear the glasses instead, I took the file reports and opened them.

"No idea, but I think it's because of Rita," Mariha says as I look beside Rudra's office where his Personal Assistant sat, she was promoted here by- I have no idea how, but she was suddenly here two months ago as his assistant and even if she was a smart looking and beautiful woman, her working skills were non-existent, but Rudra refused to fire her for some reason and I always wondered if he has some soft spot for her because even after endless mistakes from her, he won't shout at her or threat to fire her, but me? I make one mistake, one little mistake, and he is all up my ass, shouting at me, making me overwork, making me do all kinds of things including finishing the files of others or making me do reports in the middle of the night.

"And as always, he will punish me somehow for her mistake I guess," I mutter as I stand up, keeping my coffee aside, mentally praying that it shouldn't get cold and remain hot until I go and come back.

"Best of luck," Mariha says as I give her a thumbs up and walk towards the Boss' cabin and knock. A moment later I hear a faint 'come in', as I open the door and step in. Upon entering I see the usual picture I always see, Rudra Kapoor sitting and dominating the place wherever he is, may that be his cabin or the elevator we sometimes take together.

"Good Morning Sir," I greeted as I walked towards his desk and stood, he was busy doing something on his laptop and had not yet acknowledged me, after a minute or so later he finally looked up and I held my breath. He might be handsome and hot but he was far from a gentleman.

"Yes, Amayra," he says as I stand straight the moment he takes my name, what can I do, he is scary. "I hope you got the invitation for today's party?" he asks and I look at him confused. Here, I was scared he was going to yell at me or something but here he was asking me about some party.

"What party? I don't know what you're talki- Oh," I start saying but suddenly I realized what party he was talking about. It was Siya's six-month anniversary party, not exactly a party, but she called all of us for dinner tonight at her house, just some close friends, even after begging her not to call Rudra at the party, she couldn't do anything because Rudra was Siya's husband's brother, and he had to be invited.

It was just three days back I found out that my best friend was married to his brother, I had thought Kapoor surnames were common and there was no chance that Rudra Kappor was anywhere related to Kanishk Kapoor, the Business Tycoon, but my bad luck, he was his cousin brother and now whenever my best friend called for a party or a get together at her house, I realized he will always be there because bad luck over bad lucks, Rudra was even neighbours with Siya.
