THE BOSS

Michael

Manhattan, New York

One week of “sick leave” later...

Subject: My Boss...

I still can’t believe I fucked my boss last week...

You think he would be mad if I called in sick for a second week?

Your bestie,

Mya

PS—Is it sad that I desperately want to fuck him again?

Subject: Re: My Boss...

I still can’t believe that you haven’t learned to double check who you’re sending your emails to...

Yes, “he” would be quite furious if you called in sick for a second week.

Your boss,

Michael

PS—It’s not sad at all, considering he wants to fuck you again as well.

I hit send on my email and put my phone away. She hadn’t shown up to work this morming—no advance notice to Human Resources at all, but I wouldn’t dare file a write-up or even so much as verbally reprimand her. I’d damn near lost my mind over the past week by attempting to do everything she normally did for me, and I was starting to wonder if I really was as terrible of a boss as she said I was.

Even now, as I sat across the table from an author we were attempting to acquire, I was seconds away from saying, “You know what? I don’t feel like being here right now,” and asking her to reschedule. And I was very much tempted to drive to Mya’s house to address that last “PS” note in her email.

I was also regretting hosting this meeting over dinner instead of at my office. In fact, the only reason I’d scheduled a reservation at this five-star restaurant was because three months ago I’d overheard Mya telling someone she wished she could afford to dine here someday. Of course, I’d deny that fact if she ever asked, but since she wasn’t even here tonight, I didn’t see a point of me being here either.

“So...” The author across from me, a pretty brunette in her mid-thirties cleared her throat. “If I sign with Leighton Publishing, I’m going to need some promises from you.”

“What type of promises, Miss Sutherland?”

“Well, I’ll need you to actually promote my book.”

“We promote all of our books.”

“Well, I know that. That’s why your reputation is so great, but that’s only the basic level of promotion. I want you to promise me a movie deal within two years, six figure advances for every future book I write, and I want a world tour at only the best bookstores.”

“This is your debut book...”

“I know. And I could totally self publish this thing on amazon and have it live in five seconds. Yet, here I am, taking a risk on you and offering you the next smash New York Times bestseller on a silver platter.”

I rolled my eyes and took a long sip of wine. I started to change the subject, but she started talking about which actors and actresses she would would prefer to read her audiobook, which ones we “better” promise her, so I easily tuned her out her voice.

This was usually the part where Mya would step in and tell
