worshipping the devil

E L E N A

Shutting the large black gates behind me, I turn left onto the same gravel path me and Adrian walked down together.

As I start to jog, my mind wonders to what would've happened last night if neither of us stopped ourselves. Just the thought of it makes me wet with anticipation.

Everything about him turns me on. His aura is so alluring and dangerous, it intrigues me. And the way his eyes always turn 50 shades darker turns me on even more.

Those words he said to me before the kiss reassures me. Maybe he does actually feel the same as I do and maybe I'm not making myself look like an entire fool thinking that we could have a connection.

But I need to keep my distance. He's my boss and if this doesn't work out, I'm going to get fired.

Taking my trainers and coat off, I go to my room and am surprised when I see what's on my bed.

And no, it's not Adrian.

It has a bow wrapped around it and I carefully pick it up in my hands. Anger starts to rise in me. Why did he do this? He can't win me over suddenly with a bunch of expensive gifts.

Storming to Adrian's office, I swing open the door and spot Adrian sitting behind his desk. He doesn't even flinch which makes me more angry.

"What happened to the knocking rule, Elena?" He slowly looks up from his work. I ignore his comment.

I hold the brand new phone up in my hand. "What's this?" I say impatiently.

"A phone..." He reply's sarcastically. He knows how to get on my nerves.

"Who's it for?"

"It was on your bed so, I would presume it's for me."

I groan in annoyance. "Stop it, Adrian." He chuckles deeply and puts his hands up in defence.

"Okay, okay. I bought it for you because I thought you might want it, that's all," He reply's.

"Well I don't want it. I'm fine with the phone I've got, thank you very much." I say, walking into his desk and placing the phone gently on his desk.

"What is that, an iPhone 4?" He mocks.

I nod confidently. "I'm happy with it."

He sighs loudly and runs his hand through his now messy hair. "Elena, please just take the phone."

"No."

"Elena.."

"I don't want you to spend your goddamn money on me, Adrian!"

He stands up abruptly and leans his palms on the desk, leaning over it so that his face is close to mine. I can't feel his hot, minty breath on my face.

"Think of it as a thank you gift. For helping out here,"

"It's too much, Adrian."

"I have an endless amount of money, Elena. The latest iPhone model hardly makes a difference to me," He says and I scoff.

"Fine. I'll take the phone. But no more gifts, please?" I give in.

"No more gifts," he confirms. I give him a small smile of appreciation.

I'm sitting at the dining table with Adrian and for the first time, we're eating together. We suddenly here the doorbell ring.

Adrian stands up to get it and I eye the door.

"Adrian!" A woman enters the house and wraps her arms around Adrian. I quickly recognise the woman as Kat.

I walk over to them and smile widely at Kat. She gives me a big hug in return. "Hello, dear! How are you?" She exclaims.

"I'm good," I laugh. "Where have you been?"

"Adrian kindly gave me some time off, so I went to visit a friend in Liverpool." Kat smiles at Adrian.

"Come and sit down, tell us all about it," I lead Kat to the dining room, but Adrian grabs my arm.

"I wanted it to be just us two," he whispers to me.

I frown. "It's us three now." He rolls his eyes and smirks.

"Do you want some spaghetti, Kat? I have some left over," I call out.

"Yes please, dear!" She replies. I make my way to the kitchen and start to serve up Kat's food. I can faintly hear Adrian and her talking, but I can't make out what they're saying.

I go back into the dining room, and Adrian stops talking as soon as I enter.

"The spaghetti doesn't taste funny, does it? I might've added too much mixed spice," I question, placing Kat's plate down in front of her.

They both chuckle and tell me not to worry.

Kat tells us about what she did in Liverpool and it sounds amazing. I really hope I get to go there one time.

"So, what did you two get up to while I was away?" Kat questions us, looking between me and Adrian.

I keep quiet and look at Adrian. He's looking back at me with a devilish smirk plastered across his face.

"We've had so much fun, haven't we, Elena?"

I gulp and squeeze my thighs together. The air in the room is suddenly filled with sexual tension.

I nod and bite my lip. "Um, yeah. I'm just gonna go to the bathroom."

Standing up, I rush out of the room and head to the bathroom. Before I can shut the door behind me, a hand reaches around it and opens it again.

Did he run after me or something?

Adrian steps in and closes the door. I look at him in shock, and I bite my lip once again when I hear the lock click.

"You know what that does to me, Elena," he warns me, taking small steps towards me. I keep taking steps back until my ass hits the counter.

In a flash, our bodies touch and Adrian smashes his lips onto mine. The kiss is slower than before, but with the same amount of passion and lust.

I can feel every movement of his lips and tongue on my own. He pulls away, grabbing my lower lip between his teeth and tugging it.

Adrian grips onto my hips and spins me around. I'm looking at our reflection in the bathroom mirror opposite us.

He's now kissing the back of my neck, slowly moving the side and gently sucking, probably leaving marks.

I let out a small moan and shut my eyes. He stops. "Open your eyes," I feel his lips at my ear. I open them.

"I want you to see yourself moan my name,"

...keeping my distance will be way harder than I thought.
