RUSSEL HENDRICKS

My brows twitched when he intentionally slammed the car door. Stomping like a sulking kid to the elevator. He really a rebellious kid despite his mature age. Grabbing my briefcase, I take my time to the elevator. He really scared if other people discovered our status.

Aside him, I think many were like flaunting their status once they married me. He and him as a similar low key character. Nate has also hidden his status very well. If people just judge him from the appearance, then they had made the biggest mistake. Because he was actually a son of a big influential person in the politic arena.

I met him when we were studying in boarding school. In first glanced, I thought he only managed to penetrate the school because of high IQ. But I was wrong in the end. His humble self actually managed to cover his background.

"Hey, Good Morning, boss." Jacob greets me with a wide smile.

"Someone with good mood, I see." Vincent pokes me.

"Such a romantic drama in the basement." I turned around facing a smirking face Alex.

"Not your business." I rolled my eyes.

"Such pity for the lamb though. He must get eaten in the car."

"Mind your own business." They all laughed as I said that.

"Why not let him be your PA? I heard Sabrina from secretary has made your husband as a slave." Alex said. This is a new information I heard because Eric never complain anything about work.

"How do you know?" I asked him.

"Joe told me." Alex explains it. But the fool still stubborn like a mule, never complain anything. Or, let our relationship expose.

The meeting goes well. When it is over Carmen look impatient in seducing me. I don't know what is wrong with the woman lately. From the outstanding secretary, she becomes such a slutty. Did she think one night stand enough to branding me as her own?

"Sir this is your coffee." Carmen puts a black coffee on the table. Without seeing her face, I sipped the black coffee.

Shortly after that, I felt as if my concentration gets sway. My body temperature raised and uncomfortable heat increase in between my thighs. Feeling the suffocated, I throw the tie down. The tent in the pants also proven me something was wrong.

"Mr. Hendricks, what is happening?" I wanted to slap this pretending woman, but in this current situation my mind had another idea. It wanted me to pound this slutty to release this sudden desire.

The desire sky rocket when Carmen touched my skin. In a minute, the lust had overruled the rational part. My hand as if having its own mind, groping the twin peak mountains. Carmen puts her blazer on the table, pulling off my coat too. She sits on my laps with hand touching my jaws. My hand caresses the creamy thighs as she sucked my neck. It feels wrong. In some corner of my mind think this slutty body couldn't satiated me at all. It longs for another body, a body without boobs.

Fortunately, our moment interrupted when the door suddenly open. The familiar figure stands rigid in the door frame with files dropped from his hand. I spotted a hurt, disappointed and anger swimming in his caramel eyes.

"Sorry, Sir." Eric quickly turned around and walked away. The door suddenly open managed to clear some dazed in my mind.

"Get lost." I threw the slut from my laps and dialled the secretarial extension. "Ruben, ask Eric to my office now." I put down the called in anger manner. Carmen collected her clothes and out from my office.

Ten minutes later, a soft knocking hit my door. "Enter." I shout.

"Sorry sir... I really did knock your door before open it earlier." The earlier storm in his eyes had been disappeared. Leaving only a dull stare and uncaring attitude. Like we really a stranger or boss and subordinate relationship.

"I knew you were in anger. I can explain it." I get close but he flinched upon my touched somewhat had hurt me. A disgusting flash in his dull eyes.

"No need to explain. Whatever you did that is your business." He throws back my word from this morning.

"Eric, listen. I am not really a human drive by sex only. Maybe I had a loose life, but that didn't mean I would do anywhere."

"Stop. I don't need to hear it. What you do in your life doesn't concern me at all. Mr. Ruben asked me to deliver this document." He put a blue file on my table.

I hug him before he stepped out. "Eric, believe me. Carmen had put something in the drink she brought to me earlier. Maybe a drug to trigger a desire." Eric glance over and found a cup on the table.

"Don't use any excuse to run away from your responsibility."

"I swear on God name Eric, my bed partner only one night stand type. I never sleep with the same people twice." Eric pushes me and walking out.

"Once or twice has nothing to do with me." The door close with low thud. Damn! Why I felt so dread facing his conflict emotion? Likely, I was facing the real Nate.

Not even a second the desire rousing again in me. I have no choice but to jerk it by myself. Fortunately, each high executive in this floor had owned their personal washroom. Retreating into the washroom, I detected a faint hickey at the cape of my neck. The bitch really dare drugged me this time in office hour. This time her luck really running out. Not even her father's influence can solve this matter.

Two times jerking myself, the effect still not subside. Feeling frustrating, I tried diverting my mind to other things. But can a normal self-perseverance win against drug? No! When stroking the still hardened shaft, I heard a knock.

I pretended as if I am not in the room. But another person is clever when they can actually guess where my whereabouts is. Reluctantly, I neat my appearance again and open the door. I quite shocked when spotted the person standing in front me.

Eric! The same man who rushing out of my office a while ago. He wear unreadable emotion. For the first time, I can't guess what is swimming in his little head. He grabbed my hand and led me to the leather chair. I was taken back when he slowly kneels down, sitting in between my thighs and unbuckling my belt.

"Hey, what are you doing?" I tried to push his probing hand.

"Pleasing my husband." He quite scary at this time with smirking smile. His hand gently cares over the hardened dick.

"Don't joke around. Anyone can barge in any second."

"Why? Traumatic?" He gives a Cheshire cat smile eyeing me with mischievous gaze.

"We are in office."

"Don't worry, I had locked the door. I am not like that stupid brainless woman." He still maintained the eerie smile.

"Well... Ah..." I moan as my body involuntarily jolted when sensing a bliss as he took the hardened shaft into his mouth. The warmth in it really incomparable than what the bitch just did a while ago.

My breath hitching as his head bobbing up and down mixing in fast and slow pace. I clamped his hair while savouring the pleasure. His skills are better than any bed partner I have met. Everything he did feel different. In other word he knew to please me better. Like how skilful his tongue playing with my shaft. How his hand fondled and touched my sac very well. He made me lose self-control. Made me forget everything.

"I am cumming." Eric nod and I released in his mouth. Seeing his swallow my seeds only entice me more. I grabbed him to sit on my laps.

"Is this a revenge?" I wipe the milky liquid at the corner of his mouth.

"Revenge? For what? I am not, Mr. Benefactor." He puts his forehead on mine. "But from now and onward, I forbid you from sipping any drink made from these wolf in sheep skin."

"Okay." I steal another kiss from his tempting lips, tasting my own flavour in his mouth. He is so strange. In normal situation, the spouse would flip over seeing the same scene as him after catching their husband red handed.

Did I misread the situation? However, beneath his naughtiness I can ensure he is a frightened existence. The more a person calmly controls their self, the more terrified they are. That is including this man who moans on my laps.

In a second, we entered the wild sex realm. Thankfully, this room is a soundproof. I savoured him like the world will end in any second. Even Nate is nothing like this man. And, I also never have a wild sex with someone outside the bedroom. This man is awakening the exciting and wondrous feeling in me.

"Don't ever cheat on me." He said in a daze. Jealousy? My heart is taken back by his statement. The said man limpid in my hugs. Letting him rest on myself for a while before putting him on the sofa.

I am totally messed with his last word before he fainted as I was cleaning him. The cleaning process didn't take too long because I used the condom. Opening the glass panel to let the fresh air enter the room. In additional, I also sprayed the air freshener to erase the sex odour.

I have also given the secretarial department a notice to use Eric as my replacement secretary for today. Half an hour later Eric wakes up in a bleak mood. Maybe trying to register how he had landed in this room. His eyes fell on me causing his face lit with red shade. He quickly turns another side, trying composed his calm again.

"Think like I need to go back to my department." He stood and dusting his pants.

"No need... just rest here." He looks appalled but obeyed the command anyway. When he became bored, he begins playing with his phone.

I glance over his action once in a while. Somewhat seeing he texted someone enough to irritated me. Mostly when he gave a very sincere smile and laugh for unknown causes. Who he chatted with? Admittedly, when we almost hit half a year as a married couple, I only knew about him very little.

I don't know who the man kept calling him when he was drugged at that night. I also don't know why he spent many hours in the studio house. Or why he didn't back home when I was away. One thing I knew he had a defected heart and received a new heart from Nate.

Thinking back, Nate always told me about a pity man who had spent almost all his time in the hospital. How this man kept putting a smile on the people who have a similar fate. How the man crying nonstop when his neighbouring bed patient passed away.

At that time, the story about the special patient didn't really took my attention. I just let the story entered and left my ear immediately. Maybe he was the one Nate always mentioned before. Judging from how Nate had left his wills to give his heart to a specific person. Signing the paper to stop the life supporting machine was really hard for me. But, how long I want to abuse Nate's soul when brain dead held the same meaning as dead in medicine theory.

Clearing my mind, I tried grabbing my mind to present. He still engrossed fiddling with his phone. Yesterday, I also knew he was eating with his ex-boyfriend. I saw they walked together into the restaurant while I was battling either to interrupt them or not.

In the end, I still called him out. A slight happiness entered my heart when he immediately agreed and dashed into the car. In conclusion, the shameless man was the one chasing him. But Eric had completely ignored him. From the investigating report, it seems the man married one of the business daughter to expand his company.

And he also a coward in relationship. He scared if the people find out about his true sexual orientation. By the way, I don't want to explore the matter deeply. I believed Eric knew the boundary as he still in this married.

Damn, why I had put a lot of hope in this since I, myself the one who always tainted this married. Although, I haven't slept with anyone after marrying him, but it didn't erase the fact I almost bedding someone else.

The next morning, I called Carmen to my office. Her face quite paler as I icily glared at her, "Well, do you want to admit what bad deed you had done yesterday?" I asked her.

"What? I didn't do anything wrong." The woman still dared to lie.

"Is drugging me consider as a good deed? What are you thinking about this building? Your private brothel?" I hardened my tone because she flinched.

"I... hmm... sir, I really know nothing about this matter? Yesterday, I saw you a little off so I gave you a medicine. But I don't know the medicine actually that thing. I had been framed by somebody." Tears trailed down her cheeks.

"Who is giving you the 'medicine'? Someone from inside the building?"

"No, my friend from outside. I swear I really didn't know about it contain."

"Then, why you were straddling on my laps? As if you have prepared yourself well?"

"Hmm... I... I just guess."

"Carmen stopped your mind from finding excuses. I will grant you one month holiday. So use it to cool down and clear your mind from any shame ideas. Don't think I won't retaliate with heavy punishment if you dare to test my patience again."

"But... I ... But.'

"No, but anymore. For your information, I never slept with the same person twice and you're not my taste at all. If you have some dignity, please leave me alone. You're not worth of my time." I slammed the table.

With tearing eyes, she exit the door and bumping into Eric. Eric gives a subtle smirking where I basically watched a lightning ignite between two. Eric closes the door with a triumphant smile and walked close to me.

"Did Ruben tell you about the changing place?" I asked him.

"Yeah... there are many candidates in the department. Why you still choose me?" He reluctantly answered.

"Consider it as a luck." I told him.

"Luck my ass... people will suspect me as a culprit for your beautiful secretary diminished. Let me warned you, a woman is a scary creature." He sits on the chair opposite me.

"Here is my company and I am the boss. So, it's up to me who I wanted to select." He give me a drooling look as if sneering me.

"Yeah, right." Eric paused, "So, dear boss, can you give your schedule from today and onward. I can put 100 percent your secretary won't hand me her memo."

"I will email all the details shortly. Follow me." I let him into the secretary room. Carmen in there sobbing over the phone.

"Let's go to another room." Eric compelled. "This is your new room. Today, you can move all your things in here."

"Yes, sir." He excused himself. Maybe going back to the secretarial department. This sudden changed sure will invite a great rumour. Especially when Eric haven't gotten the permanent position yet.

Don't ever cheat on me.

The word ignited something in me. The forgotten joy and proud. He may have said it unconsciously because he didn't show any hint of blushing afterward. I distract my mind by settling on the piling document and review new contract.

A reminder appeared on the screen. An invitation from one of a biggest conglomerate company. I click the accepting function for the invitation. Putting my name and Eric in the list as he is now officially my secretary. With him by my side, the initial intention to make his family suffer is gone. Mostly, because I fear the heart would get a backlash from the sadness. That is the only remaining from Nate.

When the office hour over, I stepped out and spotting the empty room beside me filled with Eric belongings. Quietly, I entered the room amused when watching him set up the room as he like. The man is meticulous than any woman here. If I didn't know him better, I would think he had enveloped an OCD symptom.

From observing I only knew he only put the cleanliness and healthy as a main priority but not too obsess like some OCD freak.

"Hey, have you finished?" He dropped the heavy book after hearing my question.

"Damn, don't scare me like that." He caressed his chest.

"Why? You think there a ghost near in this room?" Quickly, he covered my mouth with eyes wilder around the room.

"Don't jinx it." He withdrew the hand after I licked it.

"What are you doing here?"

"The office hour already over. Let's go back."

"Okay." He put the last thing in it proper place and neat his briefcase. We walked shoulder to shoulder to the lift. Some of my friends are giving a dirty look.

I drove him to his apartment when he insisted to take his car. Somewhat his car only bring sore to my eyes. I will force him to change the car soonest. With the plan I toll behind him as we planned to eat outside. The night passed smoothly.

He took almost one week to familiar with my busy schedules. One thing I noticed, Eric was more efficient in managing the schedules. He also quite adaptable and outspoken. Bringing him together in business meeting really is a good choice. Maybe as a son to business people, unconsciously he had shouldered two positions, as a secretary and a manager.

The only defected was he knew my whole schedules. Thus, I can't use any business trip as an excuse to get alone. But when I felt suffocated, I still left him without a proper explanation and he had used to the habit.

When I'm back, he just locked himself in the studio house. On the next day, he would revert to the normal. He maintained a professional conduct when we are in the office and always slipping away on lunch time to eating with his friends.

"Next week accompany me to one of business banquet." I told him.

"May I decline?" He said hesitantly.

"Nope." I faced the laptop leaving him in the frustrated.

Next, I bring him to choose the good attires for the banquet. His eyes widened when seeing the clothes price. The hesitancy in his eyes is clear as a day. He reluctant trying all the clothes I threw at him. His face paler when saw the total price.

"This is a prestige banquet so don't care too much about the price. After all, we are representing for the company." He took the bag from my hand.

"Whatever." This man so simple that cause me headaches. He suddenly stopped when we passed a classic art gallery. As if being possessed, he stepped into the gallery. Fortunately, there is not many people inside it.

We walked from one frame to another. I don't know why he can interested in these ugly coloured arts. "This called an abstract artwork. Look like small kids bad scribbling. But the truth, the painting contained a dark mixing feeling. The selected colours expressed hatred, unworthy, isolate and so on." A sadness flooding in his eyes.

"Sorry, but I really can't understand it." I honestly admitted it.

"It is okay...." He still explains every meaning beneath each painting. He and Nate shared the same hobby, I think. Or, this is probably Nate, himself.

We didn't go straight back to the home as Eric wanted drop at his parents' house. I don't really like being here but have no other option. Eric was really close with his nephew. But in my case, being here was like walking on the fire. The people in this house had taken my beloved life.

"Why you are so quiet?" Eric asked me.

"I don't use with so called family relationship." I tell him.

"Where are your parents?"

"Father at sixth floor... a total useless. Mother is a butterfly party. Both are not qualified to call as parents."

"Sorry." He stayed silent after that.

I know what his sorry meant to. But the family term in my case has already faded with the passing years. Whether they exist or not didn't mean so much to me right now. I didn't need them in this life. That's what I always believed.
