Infatuation Of Darkness

"Really?" Alexis smiled as she heard the news. "Everything is broken?"

"Yes, Ma'am. It seems so." Nadine answered. "And I had checked the cameras, your assumption turns out to be true."

She scoffed because it was not an assumption. "Alright then, forward it to the CEO and we will decide from what to do there."

"Yes ma'am."

Alexis hung up with a smile on her face. Her plan was falling into action.

*********

Jayden straightened his tie as he looked into the mirror and once again checked himself out for his interview.

"You are going to do great!" Jeff, his husband cheered for him from behind and kissed his cheek making him smile even more.

"Thanks, babe." He winked back at him.

They both sat together and ate their breakfast with small talk in between, washed the dishes and then rose to work. The company that Jayden had an interview for was the one that Jefferson was already working for.

As Jeff's hands tightened around the steering wheel Jayden couldn't help but squint his eyes as he noticed his husband's fidgety behaviour.

"Everything okay?" He asked his husband. "it's ok if you don't want me to work in the same company. I completely understand that."

"Oh no, no." Jeff awkwardly laughed it off. "I am just tired a bit from work." Or last night, but he won't dare to say that.

Jefferson knew that he could never confess this to his husband otherwise whatever was left of this relationship would fall apart within moments.

As they arrived at his workplace Jeff parked his car and both of them made way to the HR's office. He passed a courageous and confident smile to his husband, wishing him all the very best of luck for his interview.

"Jeff," the assistant came out and addressed him, "The boss has called you inside and the interviews have been put on a hold for now." She then looked at the man next to him," I apologize for the delay but if you could wait for a few moments, it would be appreciated." She smiled and opened the door for Jeff who walked in.

As Jeff walk in for you noticed that Alexis was sitting on one chair, HR on the other and in the room the CEO of the company was present as well.

"Good morning." He wished as confidently as he could. "Is everything ok? If it is about putting in a word for my husband in the interview then it's all I have done. I assure you that I have not communicated any questions or answers to them with my husband."

"Oh, he has a husband, alright." Scoffed the CEO. "That's quite rich, ain't it."

If possible his eyebrows went higher than normal. Jeff thought of what to say which won't be as disrespectful as he wanted to be. That man was the boss after all.

"What is happening?" He asked looking at all of them.

Alexis sighed and shifted comfortably in her chair, "What happened last night?" She went straight for the kill yet seemed like she was forced to do this.

Red spread across his face and neck even reaching his ears. The man looked like he had been caught in the act and was guilty of it already which was something his three superiors have noticed immediately. "I-I.." He stammered not having a word to say about it. "I wa-"

Alexis waved her hand at his pathetic attempt of making an excuse. "Please do not bother lying, we have had the camera checked and your lady partner confessed about it moments ago." 

"I.What?" 

"how many times do I have to make it clear to you about any kind of sexual relations in the office?!" The CEO's voice boomed across the room as he yelled out his frustrations. "I cannot forbid human interactions but I talked about not having any relations that affect your work-life but there you are getting sexual favours in exchange for work done. How difficult can it be to keep your personal and private life separate?!" 

The horror on Jeff's face amused Alexis to no end. It was in that thing in comparison to what was about to come. 

*******

He sat outside in the waiting area tapping his foot in nervousness. Jeff and he had never really talked about every detail that happened in their work-life but the way Jeff was called in front of him into the office he couldn't help but worry.

But surely there was nothing to worry about was it?

Look at the woman who had called his husband inside sitting in front of him on the desk reading a file. 

Not being able to wait anymore he stood up and walked towards her, "Hi. I am Jeff's husband, could you tell me why he was called in?"

The look of surprise was quite noticeable on her face. But then a sleepish expression tool to her face, "I think your husband would be out in no time. Maybe you should just ask him when he comes out." She suggested with a little smile that seemed fake. 

"Or you could tell me now," he smiled, "it could be a secret I just want to know if he is being scolded in there and I can have a good gloating moment." He was kidding, he was never going to be gloating in front of his husband. 

"Well..."

********

"But... I don't know what happened or how!" He panicked and in panic, he gave out the reason that was of no use and had no logical reasoning behind it. 

"Hah!" The CEO pointed his finger at him. "Even teenagers cheating on each other have a better reason than that. You had sex with her, you felt attracted to her and you did it right in the office of your superior. Talk about making a damn statement." He huffed. 

The door opened and a guy came in running making Jeff take a step back. 

"What?" The CEO barked at him. "This better be an emergency or I am going to fire you too you for your mannerlessness and inability to knock!"

"He is the husband." The HR commented looking intrigued in the drama herself. 

"Husband, oh now this is good." He walked to the table, "Come here please, I have to show you something."

Jaden came forward as he was told and the boss played a video which immediately had sounds occurrence throughout the entire room making both the ladies cringe and the man step back in shock. 

The betrayed partner looked at his husband and the guilty one had a horrified expression. He had not only betrayed their marriage but also himself and lied about numerous things for one his sexuality which Jayden was once confident in knowing about.

"J-Jay. I swear to God I don't know what happened. I told you I cannot even touch a woman with the sexual thoughts in my..mind.."

"Oh I can tell, that was too many thoughts happening at once." The boss commented as he paused the video. "You're fired. Get the fuck out and as for the husband," he turned to Jayden, "You want a copy to jerk off or put online? I assure you it would make you a good buck cuz' that would be a good alimony and the only from his side." He taunted making thee HR snort.

Unable to stand any more of the humiliation thrown his way, Jaden stormed out of the office with his husband following him crying his name out. 

Alexis once again swirled in her chair, she had to agree with Angelo. 

Power is addicting.
