🔹️🔹️Crystal Russell🔹️🔹️Two 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

🔹️🔹️Adrien Russell🔹️🔹️Four Years LaterI 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

Author's Note/ I

Hi, guys! We've successfully wrapped up Contract Bound. I have a book I've been working on and I will be posting the chapters. If you like it, I'll post the complete thing.Lazily taming my unruly, black curls, I walked downstairs and toward the kitchen to make myself a cup of coffee. I scratched my cheek and yawned as waking up after the weekends is one of the most arduous tasks ever. After a few minutes of preparing my daily dose of caffeine, I began sipping on it and switched on my laptop like usual to check my emails. I was checking them a lot lately because I'd given interviews at some of the well known advertising agencies in the past few weeks. Although it got disappointing every time I was greeted by the spam emails. The companies where I'd sent in my CV didn't revert me back but that didn't stop me from having high hopes. Traversing my eyes over the screen, I almost choked on my coffee as I glanced at one of the emails' subject line which read 'Acceptance Letter from ZAE I

Ch. 1 {The Billionaire's Rendezvous}

A month later As I entered the gargantuan building of my new workplace, I couldn’t help but be in awe at the cornucopia of the dedicated employees moving about with an air of austerity, the sounds of orders and phone calls reverberating through the walls and the intricately designed infrastructure making me wonder of the hard working architects and their men. The lobby was filling In with people of all ages as it was the checking-in time. I followed my way toward the advertising department with the help of the map handed to me by the receptionist across the entry gate. After cruising left and right and taking an elevator ride, I was finally on the correct floor. Patting my curls and the invisible creases on my shirt and pants, I took a deep breath in and headed inside my designated department. I was in an overwrought state because it was my first time looking at such a crowded workplace. I was instantly filled with the excitement to work here. Looking at their speed to get thi

“Will never do that.” I grinned and powered on my computer. Just then I felt someone passing through our cubicles because of their shadow looming over me. Looking up, I saw a really gorgeous, asian girl with lipstick in her hand, walking past us. She seemed to be the same age as Chelsea and I. “We call her the “Lipstick girl”,” Chelsea informed me, answering my silent question. I furrowed my brows at her in mild annoyance. “Do you guys have names for everyone?” It was as if they held a standard and if nobody matched their platform, they would degrade them with weird names. What if I’m one of them? It was nothing short of derogatory. “Nah, just for people with an attitude syndrome. Besides, nobody knows her name and she’s been working here for almost a year and a half. We’ve tried talking to her but she just glares as if we are some annoying pests. Every time someone approaches her, she intimidates them with her lipstick and turns around. I swear, it’s some magic shit, that lipst

Ch. 3

As I walked toward my section, I couldn't help but notice the buzzing energy around the office. Everyone was running in all directions with urgency in their every action. With perplexed steps, I reached my cubicle and took a seat. I noticed that Chelsea wasn't here and I was about to power on my computer when I felt a tap on my shoulder. I glanced up to see Samantha, the same woman as yesterday, who'd asked me if I was new. "Valerie Jones?" She asked for clarification and I nodded my head. "Cool. I am Samantha Hughes, the in-charge of the creatives team. Today we're having the whole department meeting so I am here to fetch you, Jones. Come on." She jogged in some direction without waiting for my reply. I quickly followed her, pursing my lips. I hate when anybody calls me by my last name without the "Ms." part. I just find it irksome for some reason. Not wanting to dwell on that trivial matter much, my thoughts wandered toward this impromptu meeting. It wasn't like this yesterday or

"Really? Finally met a fellow copywriter, Shivaay," I chirped happily. "Eh." He gagged mockingly. "You can't even pronounce my name right. It's pronounced as "she-why"." I gave him a dumbfounded look and I was kind of getting a feeling that he didn't like me already. "Oh, uh... sorry. Shivaay." Passing him an apologetic smile, I pretended to look for my cell phone in my satchel bag but in actuality it happened to be in my pocket. Though he didn't need to know that. Shivaay tapped my shoulder as if sensing my cloddish behavior and I turned to him confusedly. "I was just messing around, Valerie Valerie Jones. Why you being so serious?" He beamed at me for an added effect. My face brightened up and he held out his hand for a fist bump. "For a second, I actually thought that you hated me." I chortled and he raised an eyebrow at me as if offended. "Nah, I just have a rare sense of humor," he said complacently, dusting the imaginary dust off his shoulders. "Never heard of that before,

Ch. 5

As I was staring at Sebestian's concentrated face, I understood that he was intentionally not giving away his thoughts because of his poker visage. The moment I had written down my idea in a book, I decided to make a beeline toward Sebestian's office room. It was a normal sized quarter with a cluttered impression. I had to adjust my vision to get used to such an incognizant mess, especially his disheveled desk. Crossing my arms behind my back, I rocked back and forth on the balls of my feet. I was sizzling with the fusion of jitters and excitement. I hadn't even realized that I had spaced out until I heard Sebestian speak up. "Valerie, if I'm not wrong?" "Yes, sir." I smiled politely and he nodded his head, still looking down at my book and the sheets of papers laid out on his desk. "Now," he began, glancing up at me with a solemn expression. "I'll be honest here, it's a so-so thing," he told me, balancing his hand from left to right and scrunching his lips. "Quite a fantastic ide

Ch. 6

I saw Shivaay standing at the same spot we'd left him before and so I nudged him to bring him out of his "phone world". Surprisingly, he followed without asking any questions. The moment we reached the cafeteria and paid for our trays, we followed Chelsea because she had told me that her friend was already waiting for us. As soon as we reached the table, Chelsea took a seat and side hugged her friend. Reluctantly, I followed suit by taking a seat and Shivaay did the same. Keith's a healthy guy and he looked really adorable with his wide smile. His double chin was very much prominent but I could tell that his body didn't bother him one bit. His eyes were kind until they landed on Shivaay and all of a sudden, his expression dropped. I pursed my lips because I wasn't ready for him to pass any snide remark toward him. "Whoa, what are you doing here, donkey clank?" Keith muttered with clear indignation. I frowned at his choice of words. They sounded kiddish but it didn't mean that it

"Ms. Jones," Ms. Maxwell said, acknowledging me in her signature stern voice. Sebestian took that as his cue to lead us to the other end of the room where the pictures of Zedd Automobile's new model were displayed. Soon after, he took a seat. Feeling awkward, my eyes once again roved around everyone's kind faces. There were more than fifteen people and almost everyone was old but that's a given since Zedd is a huge enterprise. "Hello, everyone. Good afternoon. I am Valerie Jones," I introduced myself and almost all of them nodded their heads. I swear I even saw a flabbergasted look passing across Skye Williams' face. Seriously, does he know me? Or do I have a similar full name as someone he knows? Or even better, do I know him? I thought frustratedly. "And um…" I muttered. Pursing my lips, I almost tucked my hands inside my pockets but stopped myself short before my actions would seem rude. I felt intimidated by their stares for some reason which was a new thing because I've neve
