Chapter 1

|| IRIS's POV ||

The warm weather of the night was comfortable. I was still trying to catch some sleep until my phone began to vibrate at an alarming rate. Snapping open my eyes, I caught a glimpse of an unfamiliar number. Fear and excitement both washed over me. After coming to this city, I knew that there were only a few people who would contact me at this hour.

" What took you so long to answer my phone?", A cold voice came through the speaker. Instead of asking about my well-being, he started off with his arrogant attitude, ruining the happiness that I felt.

I stuttered, fighting with my tears,

" I...I was sleeping.."

Nightmares have haunted me ever since I shifted into this new apartment. My doctor assured me that I would be making a full recovery from this trauma soon. Another moment of silence passed before he started again in a deep voice,

" Your new ID is lying at your door. Get that fast before someone sees it."

I hummed softly, slowly parting my lips to ask him back but the line went off before I had the chance. Tears fell from my eyes. My brain told me to expect less from him but my heart betrayed my words. Wiping the tears off, I looked outside the window. Twenty years ago, this city was different. I got a bunch of memories here but everything has changed now. Even I turned into a different person, leading a new life. Although I led a decent life abroad, this city had my soul. Now that I was back again, It was for a mission instead of a vacation.

Throwing the blanket aside, I stood on my feet to walk to the door. A yellow envelope was passed down the door already. I bent over to pick it, flipping to see both sides. After a careful look, I took it out and the ID was shown brightly,

" IRIS YOUNG!"

A small smile came on my lips. My mother had the same surname. Probably he did it on purpose. That's how he always showed love to me, ignorant yet concerned.

" I can't believe that you will be working for XAVIER GREY? Fuck! OUR PRESIDENT?"

The yelling from Daisy could be heard from the down floor of the building possibly. She was the only friend that I had in this city. Despite several threats from my man, I kept continuing my friendship with Daisy. He thought that it was a risk since our life was different. However I couldn't just forget the little girl who was the only best friend in my childhood. Daisy was completing her master degree in robotic science. Her obsession with robots was remarkable. It was another reason that I had another guest in this apartment, a mini home made robot with a poker face. I gave him a funny nickname as soon as Daisy gifted it to me ' Stressed Tomato.'

I painted my lips one last time, replying with a shrug,

" Yes, I guess so! I have passed their evaluation."

Daisy hung open her mouth in admiration. Apparently Xavier Gray was the heartthrob of the state. For being the youngest president, he had popularity among young girls mostly. I laughed about how crazy those girls sounded.

Daisy replied munching on her pasta,

" Well..I am just curious..I heard that the president is asexual and he has no female staff to work for him. I wonder why he picked you all of sudden!"

I fell quiet after her remark. This was a difficult question since I had no idea why the change had been made. Our conversation was interrupted by my home robot. It started calling me pretty loudly,

" Best of luck mommy..Best of luck..Mommy.."

I rolled my eyes at the robot. It was Daisy's stupid idea to call me 'Mommy'. Anyone would be thinking that I had my child, hidden in the apartment. Blowing another kiss at Daisy, I bid farewell, slightly nervous and tempted to meet the president,

" Bye, Bitch! Wish me luck!"

Daisy laughed, licking her sauce,

" Yeah yeah.. Just don't end up fucking Xavier Gray!"

I puked blood at her little fun. Unless I had a death wish, I could imagine such dangerous thoughts about Xavier Gray. The only thing that I could do was to seduce him. It was a game and mission to me and it will be till the end.

" Take the elevator and go straight to the 15th floor! Mr.Scott is assigned to guide you."

The lady in the reception explained to me quickly. I was still gasping for breath. Traffic jams have almost sucked the hell out of me. I stormed past immediately. She tried to say something more but I had time to hear. I heard that Mr.Scott was strict about timing and professionalism. I had no way to get out of this place without completing my mission.

Dashing into the elevator, I punched the buttons quickly and started to pray so that the elevator would be going fast. Everything here was so exaggerated. Apart from being the president, Xavier Gray held the status of billionaire. His name came too often in the front page of business magazines.

A beep came from my phone and at the same time, the elevator was stopped in the middle. I dug my hand to pull out the phone and immediately burst into laughter, completely unapologetic of my own behavior in front of the people who just got into the elevator. It was Daisy again, begging me to get a close selfie with Xavier Gray. She was a die hard fan of the president. I was speechless to hear that she knew every details of him probably better than my detective gang.

Before I could type my replies, the chill was sent down to my spine. It felt though a pair of cold eyes were watching me in pure fury. I shot my head up. The following moment, my mouth hung open in disbelief, meeting the most familiar face of the nation,

" Mr..Mr... President...You..."
