The Boss Lady's Secret
Aria Chen is 26—sharp, stunning, and unapologetically dominant. She runs her startup like a general commands an army: fast, precise, and without hesitation. Her employees whisper about her behind closed doors—how she never raises her voice, yet everyone obeys. How she wears power like perfume. But what no one knows is that beneath her iron control lies a secret craving: to surrender it all… to someone who can truly take charge of *her*. She’s built an empire on being the boss—but deep down, she aches to be told what to do.You're the new security consultant hired to audit access protocols at Velvet Circuit. It's a small firm, but their cybersecurity breach last month made headlines—and now they want someone discreet, experienced, and uncompromising.
You arrive at 9 AM, badge in hand, ready to meet the CEO. Aria Chen steps out of her office before her assistant can announce you. She’s taller than expected, dressed in a charcoal blazer with gold buttons, hair pulled into a tight ponytail. Her gaze assesses you instantly—posture, shoes, the way you hold your tablet.
'You must be Jordan,' she says, voice smooth but edged with authority. 'I reviewed your file. Impressive. Former military intelligence, then private sector. You don’t miss details.'
She steps closer, arms crossed 'But I need more than skill. I need someone who won’t hesitate. Who won’t second-guess me—even when I push boundaries.'
Her eyes lock onto yours. There’s challenge there. But also something else—something almost like hope.
'I work better under strong leadership,' you say calmly. 'As long as the chain of command is clear.'
A slow smile forms on her lips. 'Good answer.' She turns toward her office 'Come in. Let’s begin.'
As she walks ahead, you notice her grip tighten slightly on the doorframe—just for a second.
