DOOMED TO BE A VILLAIN

Inside a dark room, two people lay on a huge bed, covered in blankets and bed clothing. They were deeply and peacefully asleep now, but the clothes strewn all across the room told a different story of a tryst happening in the room barely a few hours ago.

The man's eyes suddenly shuttered open and he looked up at the ceiling, yawning. He looks over at the beauty sleeping beside him and a slight smile appears on his face, but he didn't try to wake her up and instead got up from the bed and began to walk towards the door of the room picking up a bathrobe that was on the dressing table and putting it on his naked body.

Davies then walked out of the room, silently shutting the door and moving towards his bathroom to have his bath.

30 minutes later, Davies walks back into the bedroom with a wet body and a short towel covering only what was just below the waist. He looks around the room and shockingly Jessica is still asleep.

Davies looks around, finds his underwear and trousers on the floor, picks them up, and then puts them on. He then holds up his hands and claps sharply twice, causing all the windows in the bedroom to open up as they worked with special motion and sound sensors, letting in the early morning sunshine and waking up Jessica.

"... Good morning sleepyhead." Davies greeted with a smile.

Jessica sits up with a grumble and her eyes fall on Davies bare chest that she had been straddling and kissing just a few hours prior, causing her face to turn blushing red, she quickly makes a hurry to hide back in the blankets shyly, but that was a bad move as she felt slight pains from all over her body and a sting from between her legs, that reminded her even more of the wild night she just had.

"Ouch… I don't think I can walk…"

"You say that now, but you were literally bouncing on me just hours ago." Davies smiles cheekily.

"You!" Jessica picks up the nearest pillow and throws it at Davies who dodged and came closer and kissed her deeply for a few seconds, " Better now," He asked as he withdrew from the kiss.

"I don't want to go to work today," Jessica whimpered.

"Oh no, that won't do… we can't have our new Chief Operations Officer miss her first day of work,' Davies says with a mischievous grin, causing Jessica's face to brighten up in shock and surprise, "Really!?" She squealed and hugged Davies.

"Yes, really… as long you keep in line and keep me happy, you'll be protected by me and get whatever you want…" Davies said with a loving voice but then his voice changed abruptly to a cold and unfeeling one, totally devoid of emotion and the temperature of the room began to lower as well with ice beginning to form across the windows and across some other objects as well, "… But… there is another side to every coin…" making it clear that he wasn't some idiotic teenager that was head over heels deeply in love.

Davies face reverts back to his smiling one and he picks up his shirt that was on the bed and stood up, put it on, and left the room without looking back at Jessica, leaving her looking confused and a bit panic-stricken, but she still managed to get up from the bed and found a bathrobe and she quickly puts it on and began walking toward the door.

Jessica opened the door of the bedroom, but someone was standing in front of the door, a young golden-haired man in a black suit stood waiting for her, "This way to the bathroom, Miss Rome…" Daniel pointed towards the passage down the left and began walking in that direction, not bothering to look behind him to even check if she was following him.

Jessica seemed a bit stunned at Daniel's cold behavior but quickly followed him, "I didn't quite catch your name?" She tried to make conversation.

"I didn't tell you my name," Daniel replied bluntly, still not looking back.

"Well, can you tell me your name… also where is Davies?" Jessica asked again, not giving up on striking up a conversation.

"My name and Mr. Lake's current location is none of your business, Miss Rome… also are you always this chatty?" Daniel responded coldly and stopped in front of the bathroom door and tapped the door, "here's the bathroom."

"The dining room is the other way, down the stairs… go there after you are done bathing and dressing up…"

"... make sure to hurry, Mr. Lake does not like to be kept waiting," Daniel stated bluntly and then began walking in the direction of the dining room that he had just pointed at, not bothering with Jessica's reaction to his instructions and directions.

Jessica was taken aback by Daniel's attitude towards her, but she still got into the bathroom quickly as she remembered that wasting time here meant keeping Davies waiting.

***

*Half an hour later…*

Jessica stepped into the dining room, or the dining hall because the place was huge. Davies sat at the head of the table, wiping his mouth with a napkin after finishing his breakfast just before Jessica came in.

"Oh, you're here, Jessie." Davies puts down the napkin onto the plate as Daniel came to pack up the dishes. Davies stood up and walked over to her, "Why the long face?"

"I don't think he likes me…" Jessica says quietly,

"Oh, Daniel…? of course he doesn't like you, after all…" Davies paused mid-sentence,

"After all what?" Jessica asks.

"Doesn't matter, let's go," Davies says and takes her hand into his, and begins to walk down another corridor that led to the main door.

"Why do you always do that?" Jessica asks as they walk,

"Do what?" Davies looks her in the eye and asks as well,

"Start a sentence and not finish it…"

"..." Davies chuckles,

"Cuz it's fun… to leave people hanging."

They get outside and surprisingly; Daniel is already there waiting for them. He hands Davies the keys to the Plexus LFA and Davies and Jessica walk over to the car where all the fun began yesterday. Davies opens the passenger door for her and then goes over to sit in the driver seat and then starts the car,

"You… don't plan to wear that to work today, do you?" Davies says as he eyes her outfit, which consisted of a simple sweatshirt and a short suit skirt.

"What's wrong with what I'm wearing?" Jessica asks self-consciously.

"Well… It is quite sexy and all… but for your first day as a C executive, it is a bit… hmm… whatever is wrong with it doesn't matter, you're changing it." He stated firmly, his tone domineering.

"Where's the nearest mall," He asks as he begins to pull out of the driveway,

"Cocoa mall is probably the one closest to here, but do I really need to change my clothes? I mean, you're only wearing a shirt and trousers too…" Jessica asks as looks into the side mirror to check if there was something wrong with her dressing.

"I don't think you understand how this works, baby doll… I own Imperium Technologies and can wear pajamas there and no one can complain about it… but you still work for me, and I'm telling you to change into something more… delicious to my eyes." He answers with a cheeky grin and opens up the map on his dashboard, and selects "Cocoa Mall" before zooming off along to the directions.

They get there and Davies makes her change to something more delicious to the eyes and pays for it with thousands of powerstone currency.

Then, he drives to the company and stops in front of the Imperium building and there, they both get down. Surprisingly, Lee Jung was the valet that came to take the car.

'I thought the Rome family said they'd take care of it. Why is she still with this bastard?' Lee Jung raged internally as he saw Davies coming out of the car with Jessica, but he kept his professional smile on his face, though it was now a bit strained.

'He's still here, Miya.'

[I also don't understand it… does something more drastic need to happen for his fate to be activated?] Miya also wondered,

'Oi, don't tell me he's an idiotic MC that thinks nothing happened between me and his crush… or even worse, a pervert that gets turned on by this kind of thing,' Davies shivered.

[Can that type of MC even exist?]

'Trust me, you'll be shocked by how weird MCs can be... there are a lot of mentally challenged authors out there that create the weirdest shit… Why am I even explaining this to you, you have my memories, I've already met one, remember?'

[Oh… that creep… I thought it was a horror NTR movie when I saw that memory, I can't believe he…]

'STOP!'

'I don't need you refreshing my memory with those kinds of images,' Davies and Jessica walk into the Imperium building, turning heads as they walked in.

"Elsa!" Davies called to the receptionist he saw with Arnold yesterday, she seemed to be having a conversation with her co-workers gathered around her.

"Yes, Mr. Lake," Elsa quickly came forward as soon as she was called,

"Tell Hugo that I want him in my office in the next five minutes, along with those other guys from yesterday," he tells her as he walks towards the VIP elevator along with Jessica.

He gets into the elevator and puts his finger on the elevator button pad, bringing out the four hidden buttons and pressing on the 138th floor button.

They reach the floor and Davies walks in, pulling Jessica along and into his lap as he sat on the sofa, "Wah... mmph…" Jessica wanted to say something, but whatever words were on her lips, got lost, as Davies's lips ended up on hers, drawing her into a deep kiss.

They made out until Jessica heard the sound of the elevator and quickly pulled away out of embarrassment.

"Haha…" Davies chuckled at her embarrassed reaction as he licked his lips.

*DING*

The elevator door opened, and Arnold and the other two chosen ones came into the office and walked over to the sofa where Davies sat leisurely, "Good Morning, Mr. Lake," Arnold greeted Davies, who just responded with a nod.

"I'm sure you know why I've called you here," Davies said to the two other applicants as they lined up in front waiting eagerly for Davies' decision, each of them expecting to be chosen. Unfortunately for them, the ball was no longer in their court as Davies had already made the decision.

"Miss Jessica Rome would be the new Chief Operations Officer from today," Davies stated with a clear voice as he looked over at Jessica who was also standing in front of him with a very happy smile, as the position she had been vying for had been confirmed. Sure, she had sold herself to Davies for this kind of benefit, but she didn't really mind as she was very ambitious, and he wasn't a bad choice. After all, he was rich, young, handsome, and could make her go crazy in be… we're going a bit off topic here, but the point was she didn't mind giving herself to Davies, especially with the way he was currently treating her.

While Jessica was standing there with a happy smile on her face and a bit lost in her thoughts, one of the other shortlisted employees was looking at her and managed to notice a hickey on her neck, and with that, he put 2 and 2 together, "Horny Bastard…" he said under his breath as he turned back to face Davies, but how could Davies' enhanced ears not pick up his voice.

The cup of tea that he was holding immediately froze over as he turned towards the culprit behind the unsavory comment.
