K-pop Idol Imagines - Chapter 21: Chapter 21

"The meeting will be in thirty minutes. Understand?" CEO Y/N asked her employees as she stood in the office lobby.
"Yes, Ma'am!" the employees answered in chorus.
Y/N's eyes stern and pensive trailed in the crowd of her employees and settled onto one of them. Due to her cold aura, every employee shuddered in the distance, not having enough confidence to meet the eyes of their boss.
Y/N shoved her hands in her pants pocket as she swiftly walked towards the one employee who had caught her eye forever. She walked up to her and stood in front of her, glaring her down. The employee was looking down at the ground, fidgeting nervously.
"Miss Bae. Meet me in my office. Now, "Y/N said and walked past her to her personal elevator.
The employees let out a heavy sigh as they dispersed to their workstations. A blonde woman walked up to her best friend and said, "Irene? You okay?"
Irene looked up and stared at her best friend with fear in her eyes. She had just been accepted here at the job a few months ago and she had heard about Y/N being the rudest, strictest boss she'd ever met.
"Y-Yeah. I'm fine, "Irene replied as she shivered uncontrollably.
Wendy squeezed her shoulder, saying, "Everything will be fine. You didn't do anything wrong."
Holding onto the words said by her best friend, Irene walked to the elevator and to the CEO's floor. She took deep breaths and even tried to divert her mind from worst-case scenarios, but her mind traveled towards the cold, emotionless eyes she saw on Y/N's face.
With a ding, the elevator door opened to an eerily quiet floor. She looked ahead to see the mahogany door at the end of the hallway. Quietly walking, her heels clicked against the cold and lustrous marble floor.
Irene reached in front of the door and saw Y/N's name beautifully carved into a steel plate with the title CEO written above.
Gulping really hard and praying with all she had, Irene knocked on the door twice. The noise echoed through the hallway, sending chills down her spine.
'Come in'
A faint voice replied from the other side of the door. Irene got ahold of the door handle and pushed the door open. She looked up to see Y/N sitting in her executive chair as she typed furiously on her laptop.
Clearing her throat, Irene timidly said, "M-Miss Y/N?"
The sound of keyboard keys stopped and Y/N looked up from her work to see Irene standing at the door with her hands nervously intertwined. She closed her laptop in one swift motion and put it aside.
"Miss Bae. Come in and have a seat, "she ordered as she rested her chin on her interlaced hands.
Irene closed the door behind her as she walked towards the chair in front of the big wooden desk and settled in without a word. She was looking down at her lap as her heart was thunderously beating inside.
"So, Miss Bae. I called you to ask some questions if you don't mind, "Y/N said as she passed her a glass of water.
Irene looked up for a brief moment and then lowered her eyelashes, saying, "I-I am good. Thank you."
Y/N nodded as she leaned in her chair and asked, "May I ask my questions?"
"Yes, Miss."
A feeling of frustration took over Y/N as she saw Irene being scared and nervous in front of her. She gritted her teeth and ordered, "When I talk, your eyes should look at me, Miss Bae."
That made Irene snap her head up as terror was clearly visible in her doe eyes. An inner satisfaction took over Y/N with the dominance she had over Irene. She smirked a little and then leaned forward, resting her forearms on her table.
"How do you like our office?" Y/N asked.
Irene stared at her for a few moments and then replied, "It's great, Miss. I don't have any issue."
"That's good to know. Next, any problems with your colleagues?"
Irene shook her head as she replied, "No, Miss. They have been a great help since I got here."
Y/N nodded and said, "Happy to hear that. Last question."
Irene nodded as she looked at Y/N with a bit of ease. Y/N stood up from her chair and buttoned up her blazer as she walked around the table and leaned against her desk, in front of Irene. She looked down at Irene and felt herself drowning in those beautiful eyes.
"How do you like your new boss?" Y/N confidently asked as she tilted her head to the left.
Irene had her mouth agape at the question. The closeness enough was a disadvantage to her and the question just added salt to the wound. How was she supposed to answer the question when she just met her boss for the first time?
"I'm sorry, Miss. But I don't know you enough to evaluate you, "Irene replied, and much to her fear, she cursed herself mentally for saying that out loud.
Y/N snickered after hearing her answer. The laugh terrified Irene to the core as she thought that this might be her last day at work.
"I love your honesty, Miss Bae, "Y/N answered, and then she abruptly stopped.
Looking down into Irene's eyes, she turned her chair to the left, getting ahold of the armrests as her face was just inches away from Irene's. Irene had her eyes wide as she stared at her boss's face so close.
The shock was settling in as she found her mind in havoc and her body buzzing with electricity. Y/N narrowed the distance between them as she held Irene's chin in between her thumb and index finger.
Her eyes scanned every inch of Irene's face, memorizing the Aphrodite in front of her. Her flawless, porcelain skin, her high-held nose, rosy cheeks with a slender jaw, and perfectly sculpted lips, looked tempting at the moment.
Irene's breath was long forgotten as she gazed into Y/N's sinful eyes, pupils dilated in the dark brown shade. She felt her blood rushing to her cheeks as her hands gripped the armrests tightly.
"Then get to know me, Irene..." Y/N said with her low voice as she caressed the chin with her thumb.
Irene felt her stomach flip inside at the way Y/N said her name. She didn't know that her name could sound so sexy yet so beautiful. She squirmed in her seat as she rubbed her legs together. Not knowing why she felt herself getting aroused by the proximity.
Y/N's lips turned into a sinister smile as she said, "I see... the feeling is mutual, right?"
As if the lust clouded her decisions, Y/N stared down her lips and said, "Don't mind me if I do this..."
She closed the distance as her lips landed on Irene's in a sparking kiss. Irene immediately closed her eyes as every ounce of her body desired this sinful thing. Lips moving in sync, Y/N sighed at the heart-pounding feeling.
She loved the taste of cherry on Irene's lips as she tilted her head to kiss more advertently. Raising her palm to cup her nape, Y/N pressed her lips in greed. She loved that Irene kissed back with the same passion.
Irene let out a whimper of need as she rested her hand on Y/N's shoulder, holding on tightly. Y/N pulled apart in the slightest bit on that plump lower lip, asking for further permission.
Irene didn't have any thought of stopping that now. She opened her mouth to let Y/N flick her tongue inside, kissing more deeply. The heat grew inside as Irene's hand slid onto Y/N's collar, pulling her closer.
Y/N sucked and devoured as she pulled apart to only press a kiss against her neck. Irene tilted her head as she bit her lower lip to stop a moan from escaping. Y/N was pressing soft, feather-light kisses on her smooth skin as her mouth rested on the pleasure spot that made Irene jerk in her seat.
Irene grabbed Y/N's face again and she pulled her into another kiss. The kiss made her weak in her knees as she feverously moved her mouth against hers.
Y/N pulled apart as they both ran out of breath, eyes still closed and chest heaving heavily. Irene's hand tangled in her hair and Y/N's hand settled on her nape, they let the moment settle inside.
With their hearts pounding in their ears, they both stayed still for a moment. Y/N opened her eyes to see Irene's eyes still closed, her hair messed up, her lips swollen but, but she still looked like the Goddess of beauty.
Y/N realized that she just kissed her employee and how she gave in to her desires. She pulled apart abruptly as Irene's eyes opened immediately at the whiff of cold air. She looked at Y/N who was looking anywhere but at her.
"The meeting is in five minutes. You can leave, "Y/N said as her voice sounded cold again.
A heart-wrenching feeling settled inside Irene's stomach as she debated inside her brain whether to ask further or not. However, the disheveled look on Y/N's face made her change her decision and she decided to talk afterward.
She stood up from her chair and walked towards the door. Irene looked behind her to sneak a glance and turned around, thinking.
What will happen now?
