“Eyes off the subject at all times!” Nathan barked at the man.

“Jesus, Nathan, what are you doing!” I yelled, and he kept his eyes directly on the man who was having trouble breathing.

“Mr. Russel instructed me to take action if any man looks at you for the wrong reason, and it was clear that this man was undressing you with his eyes.” He answered honestly, and I sighed as I grabbed his arm to stop him.

He let go of the man as I grabbed his hand and dragged him out of the elevator when the doors opened, but not before giving the man a sincere apology, to which he just stared at Nathan in fear. I pulled him out of the building and realized Madam A was still on the phone.

I put it to my ear as I spoke. “Hello?” I said, and I could hear her trying to contain her laughter. “It’s not funny, Madam A.”

“It’s not funny, Brielle, it’s hysterical! You quite literally have Killian wrapped around your finger.”I let go of Nathan and glared at him, but he didn’t say anything.

“I’ll call you when I’m ready.”

“I’ll be waiting here.”She replied, and I rolled my eyes as I ended the call. We walked over to Killian’s main building, and I made my way to his office, leaving Nathan downstairs. Opening the door, I saw him leaning against the side of his desk as he looked at the wall in deep thought. He was so concentrated that he didn’t even notice me walk in.

I went over to him, and he broke out of his thoughts once I stepped in front of him. He quickly pulled me into a kiss by the waist, and I placed my arms around his neck. His hands went up and down my torso, making me shiver in delight while he continued to assault my lips. After a few seconds, he pulled away and sighed as I fixed his collar.

“Something on your mind, champ?” I questioned as he chuckled, grabbing one of my hands and bringing it to his lips.

“You put two men in a time-out today.” He muttered, and I shook my head.

“They deserved it.”

“And a man was.. looking at you in the elevator..”

“Now, I don’t think he deserved what he got. Nathan is crazy! He was ready to jump over the table if anyone even voiced an opinion or suggestion to me at the meeting.”

“I gave him the authority to make sure no one looks at you in the wrong way.”

“Well, he didn’t have to strangle the poor man!” I spoke, concerned, and he pulled me closer as he squeezed my waist.

“..You’re mine.” Was all he said, and I nodded my head.

“We established that already, Mr. Possessive, but we haven’t even figured out what we are.”

“Well, I only want you to be my wife, and until that happens, I guess you’re just mine.” I sighed, rolling my eyes, and he grabbed my chin.

“Darling.. pardon me, but.. was that sass? You’re getting a little brave here, aren’t you, Brielle?”

“I guess I am,” I shrugged, looking into his eyes, and the tension in the room changed drastically.

He bit his lip. “What game are you playing at Brielle?”

“Any game you want me to play Killian..” I teased, and he tilted his head.

“…What if I put you back in your place, hmm? How would you feel about that?”

“How would you put me back in my place?” I asked, grabbing his suit jacket while biting my lip as I felt a surge of emotion go through my body. He smirked and pulled me closer so he could whisper in my ear.

“I’d do things to you that you’d still feel in your sleep. You’d be put under my control and be mine to use only until we get that little attitude situated. I could say more, but.. we are in public, and taking you up against my desk wouldn’t be the smartest idea.. maybe for the future, but not right now.” I felt my face heat up, and I tried to pull away slightly, but he pulled me closer.

“Ah ah ah, Brielle… you brought this upon yourself. Don’t start things you won’t be able to finish, sweetheart.” I heard my heartbeat in my ears as he chuckled and let me go. “I’ll let you get off at four… Madam Alexandrova called me a little earlier.” I scoffed playfully, trying to shake off my growing frustration.

“You know she’s in your penthouse, correct?” He took a seat on his chair and leaned back, smirking.

“Of course, I know. She even thanked me in advance for the bottle of champagne she’s already taken.”

“Please don’t let her find your wine cellar. She can get a little.. excited at times.”
