"What is this sudden interest when it comes to Octavia? Are you jealous of her? Are you jealous of my friendship with her?""What?" Rue rolled her eyes at his statement, If there was anyone to be jealous it was Octavia, not her. Rue decided to keep her mouth shut and not say anything regarding Octavia anymore, it seemed it wasn't helping matters. It was only going to get Keir upset with her and she didn't want that right now.She wanted him to trust her again, to be able to tell her anything but how was she going to earn this darn trust? He said he had forgiven her but she could feel him drifting away from her each minute.She stared at him but his eyes didn't even look at her once, he seemed bothered about something as he sipped his drink. She could only wish she could read his mind.LAUNDRY ROOM"Did you just arrive?" Octavia asked as she stepped into the laundry room alongside Atlas who was busy closing the door behind him after secretly looking outside to make sure no one was foll
If she could get Octavia into a relationship with someone else, she would have Keir all to herself why had she not thought of this plan much sooner? She should have used this plan instead of going after Keir directly.It didn't take long when she saw Octavia approaching them with a smile on her face like she wasn't just frowning, it was obvious she was trying to hide something or pretend none of that just happened. Rue watched Octavia take her seat as she looked back in the direction Atlas was."Is everything alright? you look tensed," Keir asked in a worried tone. All she had to do was say the word and he would hesitate to kill that bastard for ruining her mood. He stared at her as he noticed her lipstick was no longer there, was that what she was arguing about with Atlas? Did he kiss her against her will?"I am fine," Octavia lied. She didn't want to share details of what had transpired between her and Atlas with Keir especially when Rue was also here, even if Rue wasn't here she wa
Being with another man wasn't wrong because her agreement with Keir allowed her to be with multiple partners but it just felt wrong, it didn't feel right to her, it felt like she was cheating on Keir and she didn't like that feeling one bit.She ended up slapping Atlas and walking out on him.He tried his best to calm her down by apologizing for being too forward but she wasn't having any of it, she felt embarrassed for slapping him and just wanted to stay away from him. She hadn't even spoken to Keir since then because she felt out of place, She started to wonder what Keir would think about her if he found out she had just kissed a man that she just met.She wondered if he would think of her as a cheap slut who could be easily seduced.June knew Octavia was thinking of Keir but she didn't want to upset Octavia by bringing Keir's name into their discussion because she knew Octavia would only flare up and end the conversation, which would only end up in her not knowing what was going o
It seemed June was right, maybe she was in love with Keir but did he feel the same way about her? How was she even going to go about the conversation?"Did you guys fuck? Is that why we couldn't fuck today?""What? No! Why would you even feel that because of Atlas I wouldn't want to fuck you we only kissed okay and..." Octavia trailed placing her hand to her forehead realizing she had said too much. What was it with her and saying too much lately? She felt Keir's hand leaving her waist slowly.Was he mad at her?Maybe this was a sign that he was in love with her, if he was jealous it showed that he cared, right?"How was the kiss?" Keir asked leaning on the wall and staring at Octavia. He was not pleased to hear that the lips he had just kissed now were in another man's mouth but he respected her choices. She was single and free to kiss whoever she wanted to kiss but why was he suddenly upset something like that?It was just a kiss.Octavia stared at Keir wishing she could read his
~ HYDRA’S COMPANY ~~ KEIR’S OFFICE ~“Keir,” Octavia smiled as she badged into Keir's office. She was about to call out his name again when she caught sight of him kissing a lady on his couch. What the hell was going on here? She first looked closely to make sure the lady wasn’t Rue but who was she deceiving? Even if it was another girl it really didn’t matter because why the bloody hell was he kissing someone else in his office.No wonder the secretary had been reluctant to let her in but the secretary didn’t know about their secret affair so she felt it was safe for her to go in.“Keir,” Octavia muttered, staring at him as he stood up from the seat out of breath, he buckled his belt which was already loose while the lady on the couch adjusted her gown.“Watermelon,” Keir smiled. His secretary was definitely getting fired, why did she allow Octavia to come in without even giving him a call to warn him. He had plans to see her later in the day to talk about something.“I am sorry if
"Fuck you, Keir," Octavia cursed, pointing a finger at him as she paced around, trying to gather her thoughts."You already did, the same way you fucked Atlas," Keir replied as Octavia stopped pacing around."I didn't fuck him; I told you we only kissed in the laundry room, and I panicked; that was why we were arguing because he thought he was too forward," Octavia explained."Really watermelon?" Keir said, walking up to her and standing close to her as he looked her in the eyes. "You can lie to yourself, but not to me; you fucked him; just admit it.""I didn't; stop changing the subject! Octavia yelled."Just fucking admit it—that you fucked that bastard in the laundry room! Keir yelled back."Yes! Okay! I fucked Atlas.""We are even in this," Keir pointed out. "All this whole fuck buddy thing is over."If she could lie about Atlas, only God knows what else she has lied to him about in the past. He didn't want to picture her as a slut, but the thought of other men fucking her didn't
FLASH BACK~ HYDRA'S COMPANY ~~ KEIR'S OFFICE ~"Come in," Keir said at the sound of someone knocking on his door, going through his laptop as Sandy walked in with a file in her hand."I already accessed the file, sir," Sandy said, raising it up to show him as she walked to his table.She circled around to his seat, placing the file in front of him and opening the pages for him to see the errors. It wasn't easy to see these errors. Well, not technically errors, but twisted words in contracts.A lot of companies had a way of twisting their words when drafting their contracts; it sounded sweet at first glance, but looking at the words in detail, you could tell something was fishy. It wasn't her job to go through his contracts, but after one time when she had helped, he gave her full control of that assignment.Every single contract had to go through her before getting to him to access it and see if the circled parts were befitting to him or not."Right here they claim we will have fift
Yes, he noticed her, but he didn't find her attractive one bit; instead, he found her to be desperate. She wasn't the Rue he used to know when they were much younger, or the one he used to chat with over the phone. Even now that she was here because she wanted to see him, she wasn't bothered by the presence of his mother. "I will, soon; I just got..." "Oh, sorry," A lady interrupted her as she walked past her, going to sit next to Keir and handing him a glass of water. "Thank you. Keir appreciated taking the glass and taking a sip from it, then placing it on the table in front of him. "I am so happy to finally meet you, Sandy. Mrs. Hydra smiled at Sandy. She had seen her a couple of times in the past, but what she meant was that she was happy to now see her as Keir's girlfriend. She was truly surprised when Keir just informed her that he was now dating Sandy, but she was also happy for her son. Happy that he had finally found love and someone who loved him right back, she didn't
