One Fateful Addiction To A Certain Stormy Series - Storm and Silence FanFiction

12. Always

*Unedited*

No Particular POV:

21st century Ambrose and Linton. Lilly has been his secretary for a at least 18 months and Rikkard is having trouble with his attraction to his personal assistant.

Very personal assistant...

They've shared many a steamy kiss in the back of his cheap second hand car, that he drives himself to save money from hiring a driver, they've almost gone too far. As in they only stopped because Karim walked in on them both in their underwear about to have passionate sex on top of his desk.

Karim walks in on everything. He's the ultimate cock block, seriously he has the worse timing on the planet, how would he feel if Rikkard and Lilly kept walking in on him and Patsy trying to do the do?

Today though Rikkard was planning on spending a little bit of money. Money on making him and his secretary look incredible for the grand dinner in front  of all the lords and ladies of the United Kingdom, who just like stereotypes suggest enjoy complaining about the weather, it's too hot, it's too cold and drinking (un)healthy amounts of tea.

The cheap car pulled up at one of the best stores in London, with the most expensive dresses and Hugo boss suits money can buy.

He stepped out of the car slowly closing the door behind him and looked into the passenger seat to see Lilly in a blouse and tight pencil skirt talking animatedly into a headset.

He tapped the window impatiently and she wrapped up her phone call.

"What took you so long Miss Linton?" He asked irritably as he started to walk towards the entrance of the store.

"Organising a plus one for the gala Sir. A friend of mine is flying in from France."

He glanced at her for a moment before softly whispering, "A male friend?"

She smirked slightly. "The very one that we ran into on our trip to Egypt."

He faltered, his eyes narrowing slightly but by the time he'd turned to look at her she'd walked off with a shop assistant to look at dresses.

He turned quickly on his heel and stalked towards the suits before picking one of the most expensive suits, for this was a gala where everyone would be dripping in diamonds and jewels.

All the while thoughts of Lilly and that man swam through his head.

Her and Carter kissing, dancing, laughing and dating before finally getting married and she would be whisked away from him.

The thoughts made his blood boil in rage.

She knew fully well how jealous Rikkard would get if she appeared at the gala in a beautiful dress with a wonderful man by her side.

She was utterly feed up with Rikkard using her when he felt like it and then acting colder than the iceberg that sunk the titanic. They were more on/off than Ross and Rachel. Bringing a very wonderful yet very gay Carter to the dance was a perfect way to make him insanely jealous.

She wandered around before finding the perfect dress for modest seduction and payed for it on the company card.

She meet Rikkard at the entrance for the store and he spoke a few bone chilling words to her.
