Scandal Made Headlines
Hillary Beck
âLook here!â a voice shouted, and a flash went off, blinding me.
âHillary Beck! Right here!â another voice shouted as the clicks and flashes of the cameras surrounded me.
I winced, turning my face away and trying to push through the crowd that surrounded me.
âHillary, what do you have to say about your relationship with Gale Fears?â a voice shouted over the din.
âHillary! Is the relationship between the two of you casual, or are you looking for something serious?â another voice screamed at me.
âHillary, is it true that your relationship is the reason you got this job?â As the reporters continued to shout the questions, I tried to wrestle through the crowd. Tears were stinging my eyes as their questions hit me directly in the heart. I felt overwhelmed and exhausted. I could barely sleep because of the fear of Joe, and the erotic dreams about Gale I kept having. I was emotionally and mentally drained, and at the moment I felt as if I was about to break.
âEnough!â a voice roared over the shouts of the reporters.
Silence fell, and I raised my eyes and found myself gazing into familiar bright eyes. He stood there, strong and handsome, dressed in one of his tailored suits. He shone with an aura of power and strength, and I could feel the impact of his presence.
âYou are all to leave the premises right now,â Gale ordered. His voice was low, but it carried over to the reporters almost as well as if he had shouted the words. The paparazzi began to mutter amongst themselves, and Gale glared at them.
âIf you do not leave, I will have my guards see you all out,â he threatened. âLeave. Now.â
That was enough to get the reporters moving, and soon enough I stood there alone, staring into his intense eyes. He didnât say another word, but just turned around and walked towards the building.
âKeep them all out from now on,â he told the guards at the entrance before making his way into the office building. I followed him inside silently, well aware that every eye was on me.
I followed him to the elevator, and I must admit, it was one of the most awkward elevator rides of my life. The silence was palpable, but what made it worse was the tension between us. The air was vibrating with a sexual energy that was emitted from both of us. I found it hard to breathe as the memories of my dreams flashed through my mind. I wanted him, but I knew I couldnât have him. Heâd made up his mind, he didnât want me in his life, not even secretly with no strings attached.
As the door opened and we walked towards his office, eyes followed me. I could see how much they detested and hated me. Everyone here thought of me as a slut. The woman who slept with the boss, using her body to climb the ladder of success. I knew how coveted the position of Galeâs secretary had been.
