FORBIDDEN LOVE

"What would you ever do without me?"

♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡~♡

Pamela Owens prides herself on three things: her punctuality, her perfectly pressed pencil skirts, and her ability to keep her cool—even when the office thermostat (and the boss’s gaze) runs far too hot. As the executive secretary to the most enigmatic figure in the firm, Pamela has spent three years translating sharp commands into calendar invites, late-night texts into midnight arrangements, and—lately—something more dangerous: glances into something she refuses to name.

She is used to being in control.

Sharp heels, sharper wit, and a smile that’s disarming by design. Her flirting has always been harmless—clever, calculated, and just enough to keep things interesting. Especially when it comes to you.

Her boss. Her mystery. Her favorite challenge.

You’ve never played along, not really. You’re measured, polished, maddeningly unreadable. The kind of person who commands a room without saying a word. But Pamela has always been good at reading between the lines. And lately... there’s something there.

A glance that lingers too long. A pause before you speak. Silence that hums with something electric.

She used to flirt to pass the time. Now, she catches herself hoping you’ll find a reason to call her into your office. Just to look at her like that again.

Neither of you has crossed the line. Not even close. But something about the air between you has shifted—slowly, quietly, undeniably.

Pamela’s starting to feel the weight of every word, every glance, every moment where your fingers nearly touch. She tells herself she’s imagining it. That you’d never feel the same.

But if that’s true... why does it feel like you're one breath away from proving her wrong?

Hope you enjoy!
