Lust Contracts 18+ Hunting for Love with My Three Contract Husbands

126 Back with EROS

It was approaching the end of the workday and Phil was looking forward to getting off the job. Sitting behind the counter all day wasn’t good for his back and he was feeling the pain more intensely today than the others. Few people came to contact his department today and that was a blessing to him and his colleagues. One glance from where he was seated showed that the place was almost empty.

“Guess we can call it a day...” Phil mumbled to himself before he raised his arms up and stretched.

“Excuse me...” a man’s voice said.

Phil quickly entered work mode when he realized that a man was standing on the opposite side of the service counter. One look at the man and Phil knew that he was dealing with a VVIP person of some sort. The man looked impressive and so did the expensive-looking suit that he had on.

“Hello. My name is Phil, how can I help you?” Phil recited his usual greeting line while still slightly stunned at the sight of the man.

“Hi. I’m actually looking for someone...” the man replied before offering Phil a kind and gentle smile.

Phil stared at the man that was standing right in front of him with a puzzled look on his face. Reddish Auburn hair with green eyes...

Phil watched the man closely as he began describing the girl that he was looking for. Why are so many people looking for someone today? His eyes scanned the man’s handsome face as he tried to guess the man’s age. His auburn hair with striking green eyes...

“Excuse me, sir?” the man said.

.....

“Oh, yes...please go on...” Phil stammered a little in his reply.

No way...it couldn’t be. There was no way that the world was that round.

...

Coming back to work for EROS turned out to be easier than I had imagined. Recalling the last time that I met him in front of my building, I had to say that I thought that things would be awkward between us when I came back to work for him again. That was why it surprised me so much that that wasn’t the case at all. If anything, EROS seemed to be in a much better mood than ever before on the day that I returned. That didn’t mean that his schedule was less packed, though.

“It’s a fully packed day again today. Please follow the schedule to the dot. No delays, please. Ending the day off with a press conference here in front of the office to announce the new single official release date,” Mark barked out orders to the team about the plan for the day.

I glanced up at the overly handsome face of the blond man standing next to me before my gaze dropped to his hand that was pressed up against mine. I grinned a little to myself, knowing that he couldn’t really hold my hand while in the office as EROS, he had probably decided to settle for a more discreet way for our skin to touch. The back of his hand felt warm against mine and for a moment, I started to wonder if this man was EROS or Sean right now.

After the announcement came to an end, EROS walked away without a word to me. Mark approached me soon after with a relieved look on his face as he smiled politely my way.

“I’m so happy that you’re back. You cannot imagine what EROS put me through while you were gone,” Mark said with a hint of complaint.

“You’re right, I guess I can’t imagine,” I replied teasingly.

“He seems to be in a good mood today. He even showed up to the morning briefing. He almost never does that...” Mark said before beaming a smile my way.

For some reason, he reminded me of a puppy waiting to be petted and complimented by its owner. Not that I was even slightly inclined to do anything of that sort.

“Well, it’s good to be back, I guess...” I replied vaguely.

“Please help take good care of EROS. You see, the movie casting is still pending...” Mark pleaded desperately.

It seemed like everything was all good now regarding the new love song single, but the movie casting was still undecided. I felt a migraine building up on the side of my head when I thought about the script of that damn movie. Why can’t they write about something else?

“Good luck to you,” I said bluntly before walking away.

“Wait! Elena...” Mark called after me, but I just kept on walking.

...

“Sit with me,” EROS requested when we arrived at the car.

I was confused at his sudden request but decided to go along with it. EROS opened the door for me, and I got into the car. Sitting next to EROS in the back of the car felt strange. Unlike the other days when EROS would stare absentmindedly out the window, he was staring at my face instead. At first, I was determined not to let him bother me; however, EROS just wouldn’t stop staring at my face.

“Is something on my face?” I asked with a hint of annoyance.

“Not at all...” EROS replied casually but his eyes did not leave my face.

I decided to turn the other way instead. For some reason, I felt like today was going to be a very long and tiring day. When EROS stepped out of the car, he was in full professional mode, and I didn’t have to worry about his unnecessary attention towards me anymore. As always, I observed and helped out where I could while EROS went through his tightly packed schedule of work and then more work. I don’t know how he managed to pull it off, but by the time we were headed back to the office, EROS had completed the shooting for two commercials and a photoshoot for a magazine.

“Are you tired?” I asked as I handed him a bottle of water.

“No...” he replied before taking the water from my hand.

We were standing right next to the car in the parking lot, and it was starting to get dark. I looked up at the darkening sky before I heaved a sigh. A splashing sound nearby captured my attention, and I turned in the direction of the sound to see EROS crouched down on the ground while he poured water from the bottle that I had just given him on his head.
