Chapter 6

What was wrong with Valerian she thought shaking my head, his mood swings were out of control.

What difference did it make if she submitted it to him or Clara?At the end of the day he had the work right. She was fuming, who does he think he is?, never-mind she thought.

He is your boss her subconscious answered.She went back to doing her work and carried on till it was lunch time,she hadn't noticed time had gone by so quickly and I was famished.

As Hailey walked out to go get some lunch, she took a left turn. She bumped into someone in the front area where Clara and Maggie work.

"Sorry." She muttered and she looked up to only be met by a handsome stranger with a dashing smile.

A smile that could make you forget a lot of things. "It's okay and whom might you be?"

"Haley, Sir."

" Please call me Colhane." he responded, his voice suited his whole nature.

He took her hand and pressed his lips on it. Well this was quite a show she thought and a few workers were staring at them, some with jealousy in their eyes.

As his lips were leaving her hand, there he was, a dark shadow appeared. Valerian was approaching.

What would be think if he saw her like this? He would think she was flirting up a storm! He would probably reprimand her for this, as if it was her fault. Stay calm she thought to herself.

"So you have met one of my interns." Valerian exclaimed in a cool voice, she couldn't discern his mood because he had masked it so well.

Colhane responded not taking his eyes off her, "she is a beauty I must say". If he expected her to blush he might as well just forget it.

There was no point in faking false modesty was there."Thank you Colhane." I blatantly replied.

Colhane's pov:

He had bumped into the most stunning little thing. She looked so young and fresh but the one thing that truly set her apart was how cold she seemed.

How hard she looked, for a young girl. Her eyes didn't shine warmth yet they were like one of a porcelain doll just stone cold. He could tell the kiss on her hand and his compliment didn't seem much to her.

When she said her name he could swear she had hypnotized him. The good thing about her was that she was also resistant to Valerian's charms.

Had she noticed how he also wanted and lusted after her. Who wouldn't he thought, she was just distinctly polite and didn't show much.

How he would love to divulge in all the deepest secrets her eyes held.

How he would want to know what made her so cold at a tender age. And he would find out no matter the cost.

Valerians Pov

She immediately knew it was her,but what was Colhane doing? Touching what didn't belong to him.

He had hired her so that automatically made her belong to him! He wanted to yank her hand away from his lips.

How he would love to kiss every inch of her and make her belong to him alone. He walked towards them smoothly.

Colhane didn't have to point out to him that she was such a beauty cause he already knew that.

How could he not. Her eyes could trap any man's soul. Those full lips and dark hair that had volume cascading down till her mid back.

That voice of hers could make a man forget or do anything to her bidding. Yet she seemed unaffected by any attention from man no matter how good looking they were.

Which made her extremely attractive. How he wanted to shatter her resilience,

He turned to him and spoke"Colhane you're here to meet me not Ms. Hartfield,I'm sure she has plenty of work."

"Where are you off to Ms. Hartfield?" Colhane asked,not taking his eyes off her and ignoring Valerian.

"To lunch sir" she responded softly,

"would you care if I joined you ?"Colhane said.

Hailey seemed confused as to how to answer as she looked at me not Colhane.

"No, thank you Sir. I wouldn't want to delay your meeting." She responded.

"Of course", Colhane responded "maybe another time."

And with that Haley walked off without looking back, and He noticed Colhane was also watching her leave like a hawk with curiosity in his eyes.

"To my office shall we?" breaking Colhane's concentration and wanting to stop him from looking at what belonged to him.
