Chapter Ninety Seven - Foundation Members

Hailey's POV

The elevator was quiet, with Adian arms protectively around me.

I still feel there's an agenda for my being here with him. Yesterday he gave me full control of Sullaknights, which I intend to oppose, because for starters, I'm green here and the last thing I want to do is bring the company my father help built to the ground

Blushing, remembering my first intimate moments with him. I have no idea what I expected from the stories I've been told about sex, but maybe the guy you're with make a lot of difference, especially if you love the man.

I look up, my head barely touching his chin even in my four inch heels.

His short stubble gives him that mean sexy bad boy look. I'm glad I stopped him from shaving this morning.

Sensing my scrutiny, he looks down, with a smirk. "I've been checking you, check me out" he chuckles, pressing a button, immediately halting the lift.

"What?" I question him, but instead of answering me, he pushed me against the wall and attacked my neck, his hands slowly moving up my thighs, getting me all hot and bothered.

"Adian" I mummer softly, having no strength to push him away, my feet growing lifeless under me.

Moaning softly in his arms, he moved away with a smile on his lips, his body still close to mines.

"I've been wanting to do this since we got on" he mummer softly, capturing my lips in a deep senseless kiss.

Feeling satisfied Adian, moved away leaving me wanting more. He helped with my dress making sure that no one knows that he just attacked me in here.

As the doors open I turn into his chest, "tell me please, why are we here? I don't need any surprises on the work front." I said, hoping he understands.

Nodding, Adians smiles, "I am handing SullaKnights over to you and I need the board to know you and understand that I'm one hundred percent hell bent on continuing my great grandfather's legacy." Adian explained, with one foot holding the elevator doors from closing in again.

Holding my shoulders firmly, staring into my eyes, "Hailey I did not hand over SullaKnights to you because I have no time for it, I handed it over because I know that you are more than able to keep this company rising and you have my full support." he said seriously, trying to convince me.

My inferiority complex starts kicking in, "I.. I just don't think I'm capable,." I admitted.

Shaking his head, "I've read your college reports before I even met you and I know that you are capable." he said, surprising me.

We were interrupted when a young well groom man, in his twenties approached Adian angrily, "you are f***ing late and standing here chatting with." the well groomed man turned to look at me, his frown disappearing as he turns on a flirtatious charm. His blond hair, tied in a bun, his baby blues dancing in appreciation.

"Well hello" he puts a hand out to greet me, I held out my hand but my eyes were on Adian who was glaring at the man. "Just call me hot and I will answer." he introduced himself.

Pulling my hand out of his Adian, spoke harshly to him, "this is my wife and why are you bothering me? The board meeting isn't until then thirty." he finally responds

Ignoring Adian, he continues to flirt with me, "Mrs. Knights, finally. I've been hearing so much about you that I already know all of your different personalities." he chuckles at surprised look.

"Different personalities?" I repeated.

Adian started to walk away from the elevator, his arms still around me, while 'hot' walks alongside us.

"Yeah! I know you as...," he started but Adian cut him off.

"Why did you deem it necessary to meet me at he elevator." he asks the guy.

Mr. 'hot's' entire demeanor changed from flirtatious to being totally pisst off.

"That f***ing whore is in your office calling shots. I left a security to make sure nothing is out of place while I come find you." he informs Adian, leaving us, storming of ahead of us.

Adian moved and I grabbed his arm again, "who is he talking about?" I asked wondering if it's his ex.

Glaring angrily at the open door Mr. Hot walked through. "I think it's my psycho ex." He angrily spat, walking away, "stay here." he advised, walking towards his office.

Hell no! Not this time, I quickly walked towards the office hearing shouts.

Pointing towards the door, "get out of my office now!" my husband barks at the smiling villainess whose entangled in the story of my life.

I moved past Adian, "excuse me" I address everyone in the office. "This is a work place and I would like everyone to respect this office." I walked up to her calmly. "Do you need me to get a security to escort you out?" I asked stepping out of my heels, like a predator ready to attack his prey, I didn't look away from her.

Holding her head high confidently, "you might be a fiance, but I am a board member of the Knights Foundation. Call it a dowry for my upcoming wedding to the Knights heir." she continued but all I could think about, is why didn't Ameila or Adana inform her that we are married.

Are we married? I turned to Adian who appeared just as confused.

"I don't care who you are, but this is not the board room I turned to see a man in a black uniform looking on intently at us. I addressed him. "Are you security?" I asked

"Yes ma'am" the officer responds politely.

Just as politely, "can you escort this,,," I point to Adian's ex, "to another office or a board room, please." I requested, observing him look over my shoulder, before moving forward to escort the ex out.
