Chapter 15-INDIGO-I'm in deep shit now.I slowly turn around to face Rowan, I don't expect him to be few feet away from me as I do turn. "I'll get those files for you!" I chirp awkwardly, walking over to where he was sitting down before to grab the documents on the table.I'm able to turn around when I feel something behind me.Him.He's behind me. I don't move an inch. Rowan presses the front of his body to my back. From my slightly bent position, I carry my body up and stand upright.Heaven knows why I did that because now I can feel his hot breath against my neck. Why the hell did I wear my hair up in a ponytail today?"Um, Mr. Grey, I uh—""Rowan," he cuts me off. "I told you to call me Rowan." His voice is gruff and harsh as he speaks."Uh, R-Rowan, did you want me to do something for you?" I croak out in an uncertain tone."Yes. I wanted you to suck me off yesterday." I gasp at his vulgarity."Mr. Grey—""Rowan," he cuts me off again."You can't talk like that to me here. We'
Chapter 16-INDIGO-The work day drags on till it's over.I don't bother waiting for Rowan before I leave the office to catch a cab back home. Home. His mansion is now what I refer to as a home, who would've thought?But I really like one thing about this new home of mine—the quiet. I like how Rowan doesn't have people working for him, even though it's extremely weird. But at least it's something I can live with.I jog upstairs to my room and slam the door shut once I enter. I let out a tired groan as I unbutton my top. I start walking over to my dressing mirror, slipping my skirt off as I do.I take off the rest before I go into the bathroom to have a long and relaxing shower. I come out feeling refreshed. I use the free time to change into my short silky night gown and have a long overdue sleep.I wake up hours later. I check the time on my phone to see that it's a few minutes to eleven. Damn, that was some sleep. I get up from my bed to put on a thin silk robe before I head downsta
Chapter 17-INDIGO-The next day, I leave for work before Rowan. I stop to get coffee from the cafe nearby the office and drop Rowan's cup by his table before he comes in. When he does—which is five minutes later—he does the strangest thing. He ignores me and heads straight for his office, like he used to do before we got married. Heavens, I thought he would point a gun and murder me the first chance he got but now I'm worried. Very worried. I go back to work with the strangest thoughts circling in my head and later in the day, Matty seems to notice. As we head for lunch, I place a banana on my tray. Now, for normal people, this wouldn't be weird in the slightest but for me, it is. I never, absolutely never go for banana as a first fruit choice. Apples are always my first choice. Before I get to walk away with the banana on my tray, Matty stops me on my tracks. "What's wrong?" She asks me and I tinge my brows. "What do you mean?" I ask her in a clueless tone and she sighs, givi
Chapter 18-INDIGO-"There'll be no need for that, Uncle." Rowan's sharp voice cuts through the air and everyone freezes. Well, everyone except for Frederick."Rowan!" The man cheers in excitement as he shoves me from his way and heads straight for Rowan.He widens his arms, reaching for a hug and the look Rowan throws his way makes the man halt on his tracks and rethink the gesture."Why are you here?" Rowan asks Frederick, going straight to the point.Matilda throws a look my way and I understand what it means immediately, 'it's time for us to go,' it says. I nod my head and we both take steps backwards till we get to our cubicles.We pretend to continue working as we eavesdrop in on their conversation. I mean, it's not like we can help it. They're right there."I came here to check on my nephew and his new wife," he casually glances at me and I pretend to be fascinated by my keyboard."Oh well, I'm standing here. You've seen Indigo, if that's all, you can leave." Rowan says in urge
Chapter 19-INDIGO-"You can do this. You can do this. You can this." I reaffirm myself as I look at my reflection from the mirror.I am indeed wearing the 'hot blue dress.' It has spaghetti sized straps with a free neckline, the curve of my breasts are accentuated down to my hips, then there's a flay from my lower thighs where the dress stops. I wear my blonde hair down to reduce the attention brought on my chest and open back. Then I couple the look with white wedge heels, three inches at best. My makeup is light with drippy lips. Lord knows why I went for that option since it's dinner and I'll be sure to wipe my mouth in between. Well, that'll be a problem for later Indigo. I grab a white small purse which is totally empty safe for my phone, my card, a pen and ten dollars. Not really sure what that ten dollars would be worth when I step into a restaurant, holding The Rowan Grey's arm. "I can do this." I say to myself one more time before I walk out of my room and head downstai
Chapter 20-INDIGO-"Stop." I place a hand on Rowan's chest.He looks at me weirdly like he can't believe the words I just said. I withdraw my legs from him and wear back the straps of my gown that unconsciously fell below my shoulders. "What is it? What's wrong?" Rowan asks me as I take a sitting position on the chair."I'm sorry but I can't," my voice breaks as I speak."You can't what? Indigo talk to me!" He demands and I fly up from my sitting position."I can't do this. I'm not your wife. I'm nothing to you. We can't just have such intimate relations whenever we feel like!""It's going to complicate so many things when we get a divorce five months from now." I tell him and he turns his head away from me."That's still months away, we'll be able to sort everything in due time." He tries to reason with me but I'm not listening anymore."I know the kind of women you employ yourself with. And I'm not them. I won't be able to do all of these things with you without wanting more." And
Chapter 21-INDIGO-I'm an idiot. Infact, I'm the biggest idiot alive.Why, oh, why did I let Rowan kiss me with his wicked tongue?His kisses are exactly like him. Wicked, precise, amazing. I can't even describe last night. I've kissed a few times before in my life but none. Absolutely none hold a candle to Rowan's kisses.He knows how to do everything.But he didn't come back home last night. I don't blame him, I rejected him for the second time. I bet he's pissed out of his mind. But I did the right thing.I'm not in the right frame of mind to be kissed by Rowan Grey. The man is a legend in all these things and I'm his inexperienced employee. I don't want to overstep my boundaries.I stop by the cafe before the office to get myself and Rowan coffee. Thankfully, when I get to his office to deliver, he isn't in.I take on the opportunity to survey his office. Its always spotless, everything is arranged in such an odd manner. Unlike his habits at home where he couldn't care less where
Chapter 22-INDIGO-"My dear wife, its like you've forgotten who you belong to. I'm going to have to remind you." Rowan's voice is rough and husky.I don't know why but a shiver runs down my spine afterwards. I try to pull myself together as I clear my throat and puff out my chest."Rowan, I thought we agreed that we would stop doing things like this." I say in a desperate tone but the look in his eyes is primal, carnal, hungry.He takes predictory steps towards me and I take steps backwards."You agreed. I said nothing." His voice is sharp and the realization that I've hit his desk and that I have nowhere to run to is sharper."But—""But nothing." He cuts me off and I swallow."Who are you married to?" He asks me and my brows crease as I search for the right word. "Don't let me repeat my question again." He drags as his hands clamp down on the desk on either side of me, caging me."Y-you, s-sir," I stutter as I speak."Who do you work under?" He asks as his right hand finds its way
