Adrien Russell

There were two main reasons I decided to accompany Crystal to the dinner. One- it was obvious that she wanted me to come and I didn't want to disappoint her and two- I wouldn't let them be together for Evan to hit on her in my absence. Otherwise Evan Sanders wasn't a person I would look forward to seeing.

I know I should get over it because Crystal is about to start working with him, but whenever I can limit their interactions with my presence, I will do it.

Call me a possessive husband.

When we reached their house, we were warmly welcomed by Ethan and Hannah. We congratulated them and gave them flowers that we picked on our way. We all sat together and talked for a while with the couple and Hannah's little sister, Megan.

It was all going well until Evan joined us. As soon as he came inside, the smile on Crystal's face was so bright that I almost rolled my eyes at it. My annoyance had reached another level when he hugged her and literally picked her off her feet. Be

  • Contractually Yours   A Bright Beginning

    Crystal Russell I took a deep breath to calm my nerves as I stood in front of the mirror, ready in my semi-formal blue outfit. It was a sky blue pair of crop top and shorts with a same colored blazer. Yes, it's my first day at work. I walked out of the closet to find Adrien dressed in his white shirt and navy blue pants, with a tie in hand and eyes darted at his phone. He probably heard my footsteps so he spoke to me. "Crys, please help me with the tie." When he looked up at me, his face flashed with surprise. "Wow. You.. look perfect for a new start." I smiled coyly at his compliment. Adrien had been very supportive when it came to my work. He kept his dislike towards Evan aside and was genuinely happy to see me so excited to work. The best thing was that he knew and understood that my excitement was because of my work and not because of Evan. I must say, I really love it when he acts possessively. But what's even better is, even though it doesn't matter in our relationship

    Adrien Russell Dressed in the clothes chosen by my wife, I had been pacing around the living room, talking about a few deals with my assistant, Ryan on the phone. Crystal was still getting ready and I patiently waited as it isn't everyday when she is all dolled up. "Alright, schedule the meeting with Davis' at 2pm tomorrow and what about the deal with the Oberoi Corporation?" I asked on the phone. "Sir, they are supposed to land here from India by the day after tomorrow." Ryan replied. "Okay. Once they are-" My words were stuck in my throat when my eyes fell on Crystal who just walked out of our room. She wore a peach coloured dress that reached her ankles. It was a net draped over a linen cloth that ended on her mid-thigh. I raked my eyes from her head to toe. Hair beautifully styled, nude makeup and minimal accessories. No exaggeration, she looked angelic. I realized that I had been ogling at her for long enough, when I heard Ryan practically screaming into my ear through the ph

  • Contractually Yours   The Rhythm of the Heart

    Adrien Russell Crystal looked at me with confusion while I try to restart the car but it's of no use. Frustrated, I took off my jacket and rolled my sleeves up to my elbows while Crystal's eyes lingered on me. I immediately called Martin and asked him to pick us up in my other car. Since I had chosen a longer route, it would take him a minimum of 25 minutes to reach us. "Let's get wet in the rain." Crystal said beside me. Her eyes immediately shone with excitement and all the sadness from before had vanished. I hid my amusement and gave her a blank look. "Not happening. I hate rain." "Come on, Adrien, don't be a spoiled sport." Her eyebrows cutely drew together. "It's gonna be fun." She unfastened both of our seatbelts. Despite all her efforts, I didn't budge. "Ugh. Why do you have to be so stubborn? It's no fun playing alone. Please Come." She whined like a kid and I let out a laugh. "What are you? A five year old?" I asked. She glared at me and retorted. "What are you? A fifty

When she finally answered, I heard her weak voice."Hey Crystal." "Hey. All good?" I asked. "No. I've been feeling sick since morning. Vomiting and dizziness."She told me. "Oh. Then do we cancel our plans?" "Oh my god. I am sorry Crystal. It totally ran out of my mind." "It's okay. We can go some other

    Evan SandersHere, let me help you." I crouched down on one knee in front of Crystal who was struggling to slide her feet in the boots. With my help, she wore them and stood up to check the fit while I smiled at her, still on my knee. It was then, when a man with short salt and pepper hair walked by us. "You both look like a lovely couple." He said. "You remind me of my wife and I in our young age. Oh, I miss her so much." He smiled sadly and I looked at Crystal, expecting her to tell him that he was misunderstanding. But she didn't. She didn't tell the man that we weren't a couple. That she was married to someone else. Instead, she smiled back at him. That made me wonder about a lot of things. "Did she not want to admit that Adrien was her husband? Was their marriage still nothing but a contract to her? Was she not happy? Or did she just not mind if people thought of us as a couple? That thought caused a strange feeling in the pit of my stomach. Deep down, that thought made me.

The shares of his company were falling down ridiculously and his house was raided, leaving him on the streets.I turned off the TV, having enough of it. His downfall was giving me a ray of satisfaction but that made me feel like a terrible person, even though he absolutely deserved it.It was just then when I heard the door click and Adrien walked in. He grinned widely upon seeing me. The sun hadn't set yet and he was home early."Hey! How was your day?" He asked."Good. How about yours?""Awesome." He pecked my lips while smiling ear to ear and a smile automatically made its way to me. He walked inside the room and meanwhile I scrolled on pinterest for ideas for the upcoming event at work. Few minutes later, he came back and sat across from me on the couch."Did you see the news?" He asked, stretchi

    Crystal RussellWe were in the car on our way back home when I was contemplating my newly found feelings. I was in love with Adrien. And as happy I was about it, I couldn't stop my conscience that was telling me that it was wrong. This was not supposed to happen. Falling in love with Adrien was not part of the contract and yet, here I am, knowing it would leave me with nothing.It was the ringtone of Adrien's phone that got me out of my trance. His phone was connected to the car's stereo and he answered it. "Hello?" Adrien asked, his eyes focused on the road. "Adrien Russell." My heart beat sped up as I heard an unfortunate familiar voice through the speakers. Adrien looked equally surprised by the call but it was fury that immediately overpowered it. His hands tightened around the steering wheel and he slowed the speed of the car. "I will make you pay for this." Alan's disgusting voice boomed in the car. "You and everyone you love will suffer and I will make sure of it." Adrien

People moved around with their drinks and danced to the music carelessly, enjoying the night to the fullest while I was proudly smiling at my success in planning the event.I looked around the club to find Evan but he was nowhere in sight. When my phone vibrated in my hand, I looked up at it to see Adrien's name flashing on it. Moving to a corner, I answered the call."Hey! Please tell me you're coming." I yelled against the phone. I had invited him to the party and was expecting him."I am coming, but I don't think I can stay for long. Dad needs me to accompany him somewhere." He answered."It's okay. Just come soon. I'm waiting." I hung up on the call and went back near the drinks counter. The staff that I knew were all busy with their work and I didn't want to disturb them so I sat quietly waiting for Adrien or Evan.Few minutes later, two girls, approximately of my age, approached me with an awkward grin.

    Adrien RussellI stared at Crystal who moved around the large hall with her notepad in hand. It was five in the evening and nineteen hours since we fought last night. And the entire day, she had been avoiding me.I admit it was my fault but I certainly wasn't being careless or ignorant like she had blamed me to be. This day was as important and special to me as it was to her. I looked around the beautifully decorated hall. Balloons, lights and flowers decorated the high walls. Heaps of gifts were kept in a corner and the employees of Mosaic Events rushed to make the arrangements.It would be a lie if I said that I wasn't disappointed in myself when I realized that I wasn't exactly any sort of help while Crystal had arranged every nook and corner. I had one job. And I failed.I watched my wife as she suddenly stopped on her track and scrunched her face, as if in pain. I was already on my way towards her to check on her when she slipped her fuck me heels out of her feet and massaged the

    Crystal RussellTwo Months LaterAs I came out of the bathroom in a robe, while wiping my wet hair with a towel, My eyes fell on Adrien's sleeping figure. He laid on his chest with the muscles of his bare back relaxed for once. A smile cherished my face watching him sleep with his mouth open like a little baby.I leaned further, hovering him, making the droplets of water from my hair fall on his face. When I brushed back his hair with my fingers, he squinted his eyes and slowly opened them."Good Morning." Watching me grin at him, a sleepy smile settled on his face before he grabbed my waist and rolled over making me fall on the bed with him on top of me. "Morning." He rasped in his bed voice that rose goosebumps on my skin. He leaned in and gave me a quick kiss before leaving for the bathroom. Meanwhile, I dressed up lazily in a sundress.Few minutes later, after Adrien had bathed and dressed up, he came up to me with his tie."I'm sorry that I have to go to work on this special day.

  • Contractually Yours   Closure

    Crystal Russell“Welcome home!” We were greeted by Lily with a wide smile and a hug as we came back home from Bali. Martin followed us inside and kept our luggage in our room and took his leave while Lily was so excited to hear what happened in Bali. She asked us to freshen up and get some rest while she prepared the lunch. As I entered the room, my hands flew in the air and I stretched my body before Adrien’s arms slid around my stomach and I rested my back against his body. “I missed home.” I mumbled lazily. “Me too.” Adrien said and pressed a kiss on my jaw, making me smile. “Do you want to shower first or should I?” I asked him, angling my neck to look at him. He ducked his head and nibbed on my neck, making me inhale a sharp breath. “Or we could save time and water and shower together.” My eyes widened at that and I shrugged him away from me. “Not happening.” I said and tried moving away but he held my wrist in a strong grip. “Oh, Come on, Crys.” Adrien smirked. “No.” I sho

  • Contractually Yours   Bound by Love

    Crystal RussellOur mouths clashed with roughness and need, biting and sucking on each other's lips. His tongue plunged into my mouth and I moaned, curling my fingers in his hair. Our bodies were still flushed together and when I began to feel a hardness against my abdomen I involuntarily grinded my hips against his. As a response to my action, Adrien wildly tugged my hair, making my neck crane upwards and his mouth went down to my neck. My eyes rolled back in pleasure as his hot tongue and lips licked and nibbled on my sensitive skin. I bit my lower lip to muffle the moans threatening to escape my mouth but as if Adrien didn't want that, he bit my skin and I gave in. This time it was Adrien who shifted his hips, creating a friction between us and I was a moaning mess while some deep groans left his throat. My hands slid under his coat and I shrugged it off his shoulders, running my hands on his clothed muscles.I gasped when my feet were lifted off the ground and I was taken inside,

    Crystal RussellI undid his blindfold and threw the red ribbon away and Adrien scowled at the sudden light. Adjusting to it a while later, his eyes moved around the yacht then landed on me."It was you?" He asked, his jaw hanging low. "It was you who got me kidnapped?" I giggled and nodded my head at him as he threw his head back in disbelief. I got off his back and untied his hands and legs, then sat back on his lap, circling my hands around his neck."So? Did you like my surprise?" I asked, grinning. His hands came around me and he sighed. "It definitely did not start the way I expected it to be but... I love this." He said looking around. "And this." His eyes scanned me as I was seated on him, lingering on my exposed leg. I leaned in and pressed a quick kiss on his lips before getting up and pulling him along with me."Come on. There's a lot more that you'll love."I took him further inside, revealing the romantic set up to him. The yacht was nothing less than a boat-house. The roo

    Crystal Russell"I think I lo- Aah"The large splash of water on us made me shrill in between my confession. When I looked back up, it was a jet ski that a man had rode beside us. I was thrilled as I had an urge to try it out myself. Reading my face, Adrien said, "Do you want to ride it?"I nodded rapidly but then frowned. "But I don't know how to.""I do." He said."Really? Can you ride that?" He nodded with an amused smile as I shrieked in excitement. We went to the station where they were renting the jet ski. When we finally had it to ourselves, Adrien climbed on it first, followed by me behind him."Hold tight." He said and I obliged, wrapping my hands around his torso and resting my chin against his shoulder.It had to be the best experience of my life. Adrien rode the jet ski pretty fast, which scared me at first but a minute later, I couldn't stop myself from spreading my arms and enjoying the drops of water and the wind hitting my face. Few minutes later, Adrien insisted that

  • Contractually Yours   Troubled Morning

    Crystal RussellWaking up in the morning has always been painful to me, but it was nothing compared to the literal pain that I felt today. My head throbbed as if there was a hammer being pounded inside. Even a small task like opening my eyes felt like carrying tons of weight on my head.After a lot of groaning and grunting, when I finally opened my eyes, everything was white.Had I really been run over by a truck and reached heaven?I shut my eyes hard and again when I opened them my vision was a lot better. I looked to my left to see the large windows that opened up to the beach view and then to my right at the empty side of the bed.I remember being used to waking up with someone beside me. It took me some time to remember I have a husband as that 'someone'.As if the devil was waiting for me to think about him, the door of the room was kicked open and-Wow.My mouth dried up when Adrien– shirtless Adrien came inside with a tray in hand. It wasn't the first time I had seen his body

    Adrien RussellWhen I finished the call and went back inside, Crystal sat by the bar with her head on the counter and an empty shot glass in hand. "One more!" She banged the glass on the counter and yelled.Oh God."Crys!" She looked up and as her eyes landed on me, she smiled largely."Adrien!" She spread her arms to hug me and almost tumbled down the stool. "It's been so long. How are you?" I stared at her with my mouth agape. Her face was flushed red and hair was a sexy mess."How much did you even drink?" She squinted her eyes at me and began counting on her fingers."One. Two. Three. Fiv- No. One. Two–" I rubbed my eyes in frustration as she carefully counted. I shouldn't have left her alone. "Eight!" I heard her shout. "Eight shots." My eyes widened while she smiled proudly."Eight shots of Vodka?!" She nodded and giggled. I sighed and gathered her phone and bag before holding her. "Come on, let's go.""No no no no no no." She swung herself away from me and shook her head. "I do

    Crystal Russell"Hey! Wake up." I heard as someone slightly tapped on my cheek. "Come On, Crys. We are almost there." I slowly opened my eyes from my deep slumber and realized my surroundings. We had just landed in Bali after a day long flight and I was so tired that I ended up sleeping on Adrien's shoulder while we were in the car."I am tired." I said, rubbing my eyes. It was my first time traveling for so long and it was really hectic."I know. But don't worry. You can sleep again once we check in at the resort. On the bed. In my arms." Adrien sexily whispered in my ear and I rolled my eyes, stretching a little.The car that Mr. Olsen had sent for us turned and crossed a huge gate. I looked through the window and was stunned by the view. There were miles covered with trimmed grass on both the sides of the driveway. The car came to halt and we both stepped out. The fresh air hit my face and I took a deep breath, enjoying the atmosphere.The view was a sight I'd pay to watch. Variety
