Graces POV
who the hell does he think he is removing me from a meeting in front of everyone ? I was filled with anger and disappointment. I was so upset , I stormed out the room. I could tell he was staring at me but I refused to look in his eyes.
I couldn't believe he did that to me. This is exactly what I was worried about. Did he not think I was good at my job? did he think the other secretary was better than me ?
All these thoughts flooded my mind, I could feel myself fuming. I went to the bathroom and started crying. How dare he embarrass me. I was so afraid of this happening, that once we are back to our regular busy lives, that it wouldn't work anymore. No one else knew that we were together, just me and him, but what if I embarrassed him somehow ? Or he was embarrassed to claim me ?
I sat in the bathroom, trying to fix my makeup so nobody could tell I was crying. It was already enough embarrassment to be dismissed from a meeting.
I tried to clean up my mascara under my eyes but it was still evident I was crying, my eyes were kinda swollen. I decided I was just gonna keep my head down and hopefully not have to look into anyone's face ... hopefully.
Especially not his. I was going to get through the work day, and just go home and get in my bed .
I heard the meeting was done as I heard the people coming out of the room and heading back to there work desk. I walked out the bathroom and sat at my desk quietly. I hear him walking out of the conference room and I put my head down. I can see him approaching me.
"Grace, come to my office please", he says sternly.
"No. Leave me the fuck alone"
" Office. NOW! I'm not asking you, I'm telling you. Follow me." He says raising his voice at me due to the language I used with him. At the moment I didn't care how I spoke to him.
I slammed down my files in my hand and followed him to his office and slammed the door behind me."What the fuck do you want from me ? You think you can just embarrass me like that as if I was nothing to you? You can go to hell, im done with you, this is exactly what I was-
He cuts me off and pushes me against the wall with his hand slightly around my throat. He knew I liked that. I ignored eye contact anyway.
" baby listen, just for a second. Hear me out my baby".he says softly and I roll my eyes.
" No , im done hearing you out , you fuckin-
He cuts me off again , kissing my lips to the point I couldn't get a word out. He broke off from the kiss, " you ready to listen now or do I have to throw you over my lap to get your attention ?"
I didn't say a word. I rather hear his explanation then having a sore bottom for the rest of the day.
"Listen. I couldn't concentrate with you in the room. I couldn't keep my eyes off you, every second I kept returning back to you. I couldn't find myself getting anything done or taking anything serious, so I just had to get you out, so I could concentrate."
what he says softens my gaze. My anger starts to dismiss from my body and he genuinely is looking into my eyes with such deep sincerity.
"I'm sorry baby, I would never want to embarrass you dear, but if you're in the same room as me, nothing can get my eyes off of you, do you understand how that can be difficult for me to do my job ?"
"Yes. I do," I say it him looking up in his eyes.
He stops, and brushes my hair out my face, oh shit, he realizes I was crying earlier, but he's the asshole that provoked it.
"Sweetheart.."he says while titling my chin up with his hand.
I quickly say before he can finish his sentence,
"Look I was just upset and I thought that you didn't want to pursue whatever this is we have going on and that you were embarrassing me on purpose or ashamed of me. I was just overthinking so I got upset and I was crying but I understand your reasoning now."
"Sweetheart come see", I walk over to him and he sits in his chair and places me in his lap.
" I would never hurt you intentionally princess, and I would never be ashamed of you. Furthermore, I'd never let anyone hurt you or disrespect you without killing them. You are the most beautiful girl I've ever laid my eyes own. I made it a mission to make you mine from the day I saw you."
I smile and hug him tightly. He places me off his lap and gives me another kiss.
" get back to work baby."
" yes sir"
" and grace...?"
I stopped and turned around ,
" yes baby?" I ask him.
" I will punish you tonight for the language you used with me earlier. That won't go unnoticed. That'll be all. Return back."
I gulped and went back to my office.
