Russian Billionaire’s Virgin Secretary(4)
As Sarah left, Vitaly set her file down and sat back. He liked this one. She was submissive and he could tell by her reactions that she was relatively inexperienced. He especially liked that there was no boyfriend in the picture. He was going to enjoy having her around and getting to know her.

When Sarah returned home, she ran into Lisa.
“Girl, you look as bad as I feel. How was the interview?”
“I got the internship, but it isn’t in marketing. I’m going to be his PA for the summer.”
At Lisa’s squeal, Sarah stopped her. “I get the impression that I’m going to work a lot of hours. He even asked if I had a passport.”
Lisa continued to bounce up and down in excitement. “What?!”
“Is he as good looking as he is in his pictures?”
Sarah smiled. “Better. Now come on, I need help putting some work outfits together until I can go shopping.”

Later that evening, Sarah was checking messages. She had three from Daniel that she deleted without even reading. Clicking on the one from VIC Enterprises, she read a welcome letter from Susan, Vitaly’s secretary, welcoming her to the team and giving her more information on what to expect over the next three days with HR. In addition to the paperwork and explanations on the various benefits and programs available to its employees, Sarah would also be trained on the current project management system VIC Enterprises uses along with all the other performance applications.
When she came upstairs, Mr. Chekov expected her to be ready to go with minimal learning curve. And since she would be spending all her time in HR, she was allowed to dress in office casual, but once she came upstairs, she would have to dress more appropriately. As Sarah read through the message, she took note of the suggestions to keep a travel bag in her car with a couple days’ worth of clothes and to keep her passport close. She also provided her with Vitaly’s tentative schedule, which Susan made sure to point out, changed constantly. It would be her job to know his schedule at all times, so it was mandatory that she be able to access all aspects of their communications software.
The next morning, Sarah reported to HR. Since she knew that she would be sitting most of the day, she had elected to wear comfortable chinos with a breezy top. Gary was their trainer and he took a moment to go around the room and have everyone introduce each other and indicate their role. Sarah was surprised to see a sixth intern in the room, until he indicated that he was in marketing. She had to shake her head at how quickly employment decisions were made around here. The remainder of the week was uneventful as Sarah spent most of it learning the various software systems. Vitaly insisted that everyone who worked for him had a general understanding of the expectations and roles for every department and as his personal assistant, Sarah felt pressured to understand as much of his business as possible. This was her chance to make a good impression and she wanted to do well.
On Friday, they broke for the day around mid-afternoon as Gary congratulated everyone on all the work they did. Since it was still early, Sarah decided to go upstairs to peek at her office and perhaps get a jumpstart on Monday. Both Susan and Laurel had been copying her on emails, so she knew that she had a busy week ahead of her. As she arrived on the tenth floor, she was surprised to find it in semi-darkness. As she walked up to the reception desk, it was obvious that Laurel wasn’t in. Since it was so quiet, she decided to walk around and get comfortable with her new surroundings.
As she walked into the conference room, she gasped at the amazing view outside. While Sarah had been living in San Jose for the past three years, she never paid much attention to the scenery, but the location of the office building and the floor to ceiling windows seemed to command respect for the beautiful mountains that served as a backdrop. She squealed in surprise when she heard a throat clearing behind her. Whirling around, she was surprised to see Vitaly Chekov and he looked like he hadn’t slept in days.
“Mr. Chekov, you startled me, I thought you were still out of town.”
“Vitaly. And I came back early. Why aren’t you in training?” he demanded, as he looked her over. She was wearing a sundress under her blazer and he liked how it hugged her curves.
“We finished for the day,” Sarah replied. He didn’t look pleased to see her. “It looks like I’m bothering you. I’ll just show myself out and see you on Monday.” As Sarah tried to scoot by, Vitaly put his arm out to block her.
“Stay,” he commanded as he swept his eyes over her. She really was gorgeous, he thought to himself.
Wrinkling her nose, Sarah attempted to move around his arm. “Mr. Chekov, er, Vitaly, sir, it smells as though you’ve been drinking. I think it would be best if I leave now.”
