"Name?" the receptionist asked without looking up.
"Alex Carter," I replied, adjusting my tie nervously.
She barely acknowledged me, her manicured fingers tapping away on the keyboard.
First day at Knight Enterprises, the biggest tech firm in the city. My dream job... and probably my worst nightmare.
The lobby was filled with people way out of my league—model-like women, sharp-suited men, all confident, all successful.
I? I was average. Mediocre. Completely forgettable.
Until today.
"Go to the 22nd floor," the receptionist said. "HR is expecting you."
I nodded, heart pounding, and made my way to the elevators. The mirrored walls only reminded me what I already knew.
Messy brown hair. Slim build. Not ugly, but... not memorable.
I sighed. Typical.
When the elevator doors opened, I walked into the bustling office floor. My eyes immediately landed on Layla Bennett.
The woman of my dreams. Long black hair, killer curves, and eyes that could turn men into fools.
She was laughing with a group of colleagues—clearly the popular crowd.
"Hey," I greeted awkwardly as I passed.
She glanced at me, barely recognizing my existence, then returned to her conversation.
Humiliation Level: 100.
Great start, Alex.
Little did I know, my life was about to change forever.

[Welcome, Host.]
My eyes widened.
"What... the hell?"
