Bound By The Desk 125: Sibling Night
Selene's POV Zephyr messages me in the morning like he has already decided the whole day.“I am taking you out. No excuses.”I stare at the text for a second, then type back. “Who are you and what have you done with my brother?”“Be ready by four.”That is how I end up in the passenger seat of his car on a weekday evening, bag at my feet, watching the city slide by while he drives with one hand on the wheel. He has not asked the detailed questions yet. He has not mentioned the building or the fight. He just showed up and claimed the hours.“You did not have to clear your schedule,” I say.“I know,” he answers. “I did it anyway.”The coffee place he chooses is small and half-hidden, the kind with too many plants and handwritten specials. We take a corner table. He orders for both of us without performing about it, then sits across from me and finally looks at me properly.“How are you sleeping?” he asks.“Fine.”“Selene.”I wrap both hands around the cup. “Better than the first night.
Bound By The Desk 124: Only Us
Zephyr's POV The door shuts behind us and the rest of the night disappears with it.Vorian does not give me time to say anything. He fists the front of my shirt, drags me in, and kisses me like he has been holding it back all day. I can feel his teeth and tongue, and even the heat coming from him.I make a sound into his mouth and he swallows it. His other hand is already on my belt.“Bedroom,” he says against my lips.We barely make it.He pushes me onto the bed hard enough that I bounce once. Before I can sit up he is over me, knee between my thighs, one hand planted beside my head. He looks down at me and smirks, slow and mean in the best way.Then he leans in and bites my ear.The bite was not soft, it was so hard that it stings. His breath follows the bite.“I am going to fuck you so hard you will not remember your name,” he whispers. “Only mine.”Fuck.I look into his eyes and I know he means every word.“Then do it,” I say.He does not undress me politely. He yanks my shirt op
Bound By The Desk 123: Second Stop
Dorian's POV Vorian’s building disappears behind me in the side mirror and I decide almost immediately that the night is not finished. Being refused money is one thing. Being refused money while sober enough to remember it is worse. I need a second audience. Cassian is the only remaining option who will open the door and not call security.I tell the driver to take me there.By the time the car stops outside Cassian’s house, the worst of the spin has settled into a warm, stubborn fog. I walk up, and ring the bell.Elena opens the door. She takes one look at me and sighs, “Dorian.”“Elena,” I say, generous and wounded at the same time. “Is my responsible brother available for emotional damages?”Cassian appears behind her before she can answer, Lila peeking around his leg. Cassian’s face goes through recognition, resignation, and calculation in under a second.“You are drunk,” he says.“I am motivated,” I correct. “There is a difference.”Lila waves. “Uncle Dorian!”“Hello, small jud
Bound By The Desk 122: Uninvited
Zephyr's POV I am presently in Vorian's home rinsing a glass when the front door opens without a warning.Vorian’s expression changes instantly.Dorian appears in the doorway of the living area with his jacket half off one shoulder and the loose smile of a man who has already had more than enough to drink. He sees us, spreads his arms, and nearly loses his balance doing it.“Family,” he announces.Vorian sets his phone down. “How did you get in?”“Door was unlocked,” Dorian says. He points behind him. “Also I know the code. You should change it if you want a meaningful life.”“You do not walk into this apartment without notice,” Vorian says. “Especially when someone else is here.”Dorian blinks at me, then at Vorian, then puts on a mock-serious face and deepens his voice in a bad copy of his brother’s. “You do not walk into this apartment without notice. Especially when someone else is here.”I press my lips together hard.Vorian’s jaw flexes. “You are drunk.”“You are drunk,” Doria
Bound By The Desk 121: Foundation Calendar
Vorian's POV The meeting room on the eighteenth floor is already full when I walk in. The various department heads occupy both sides of the table; PR, Marketing, Corporate Social Responsibility, Legal, Finance, Facilities. A representative from Human Resources sits near the end with a notepad ready. Zephyr takes his usual place to my left. Silas closes the door and remains standing until I sit.“This will be short and practical,” I say. “The NexusVibe Foundation gala is twelve weeks out. We are past the point of informal discussion. Today we lock structure, committee access, and first round partnership direction.”Rachel from PR slides a one page calendar summary to the center of the table. “Venue hold is confirmed at the riverside hall. Date is fixed. Save-the-date notices can go out once we approve the committee list and the primary partner shortlist.”I nod once. “Any employee who wants to sit on the organizing committee will submit their name to their department head by end of d
Bound By The Desk 120: After the Call
Zephyr's POV My phone rings while I am still in the car with Vorian, halfway between the restaurant and the office. Selene’s name is on the screen. I answer on the second ring.“Where are you?” she asks.“With Vorian. What is it?”“Silas is here. At my office. There was a problem outside the building.” She pauses. “Adrian showed up again. He put his hands on me. Silas hit him.”The name lands wrong. I have not heard her say it in months. “Are you hurt?”“No. Silas is the one bleeding. Cheek and knuckles. Security took Adrian away from the entrance. I just… I needed to tell you before it turned into something else.”I look straight ahead through the windshield. Vorian glances at me once, reading the shift in my posture, but does not interrupt.“Stay inside,” I say. “Do not go back out alone. We are coming.”“You do not need to…”“We are coming.”I end the call. Vorian already has the car moving faster.“Selene?” he asks.“Her ex showed up at her office. Grabbed her. Silas put him on t
Bound By The Desk 4. Sparks in the Schedule
Zephyr’s POV “Man, this place is insane,” I mutter, sitting at my new desk, papers and screens everywhere. My head is still spinning from meeting Vorian Rex; those eyes, that voice, like he could burn me alive and I would thank him. I dismiss the feeling.Silas saunters by, coffee in grasp, smilin
Bound By The Desk 3. Red Ink and Razor Eyes
Vorian’s POV I stepped out of my black Maserati, the morning sun hitting NexusVibe’s glass tower like a spotlight.Silas slams the car door, grinning. “Vorian. Look at ‘em; employees practically kissing the ground you walk on.” I glance at the lobby, where staff nod and scatter as we stride thro
Bound By The Desk 2. Echoes in the Dark
Zephyr’s POV “Zephyr, you are gonna burn a hole in that plate if you continue gazing,” Dad utters.I snap out of my thoughts, grabbing the bowl. “Just thinking, Dad. Big day tomorrow. New job at NexusVibe.” Mom, slicing bread at the counter, turns with a proud smile. “My boy, working for the big
Bound By The Desk 1: Cracks in the Crown
Vorian’s POV “Vorian, if you do not devour this roast, I am disowning you,” Mom utters, her voice piercing but soothing, gliding a plate of herb-crusted beef across the dining table. The chandelier shines off her gemstone necklace, making her look seem she is still commanding a gala, not our famil
