JADE
I stood in front of Max Anderson's door and my heart raced uncontrollably. I had many times imagined how special my first time would be with the love of my life, Henry, but now I was about to sell it away.I summoned up the courage I needed and knocked on the door."Come in," a voice replied from inside.I pushed the door and it opened. I walked into the room and saw Max Anderson sitting on the bed with a towel around his waist and empty bottles of wine on the table beside his bed. There had been so many scandals surrounding him but he never seemed to care about them. His most prominent name was 'man whore' and I detested people like him but there I was, in his room, in the club where I worked, ready to give myself to him."I was told you are a virgin," he said without sparing me a glance, as his gaze remained fixed on his phone.I nodded, "Yes I am.He laughed and finally looked at me, scrutinizing me from my head to my toes, "I'm not going to be fooled twice. Hold on, I'll have someone check, to be sure.""What? But I'm not lying to you," I retorted."Just shut the hell up and wait," he ordered.He dialed a number on his phone and said, "Come in now." Shortly after, a young lady entered the room.She stared at me and said, "Take off your clothes and lie on the bed."I felt embarrassed and began to fidget with my fingers without moving. "We haven't got all day," the lady said and pushed me onto the bed.As I fell on my back, she pulled down my pants and I instinctively placed my hands between my legs to cover my ladybits but then, I realized it was futile.I closed my eyes as the lady pried off my hands and I let her have her way. She pushed my panties to the side and checked me using her fingers. I endured the discomfort I felt, hoping it would be over soon."Sir, she is exactly what you want," I heard her say to Max and opened my eyes.I quickly pulled up my jeans but this action seemed to amuse Max who laughed and shook his head while the lady walked away.He finally got up from the bed and locked the door, a predatory smile playing on his lips.I remained on the bed, grabbing the sheets in fear as he made his way toward me. Just as he got close, however, he turned and walked toward the fridge.He took out a bottle of wine and quickly opened it.As he walked toward the table, he said, "You know, when I first made this bet with my friends, I thought I would end up with a loser. I mean, no right-thinking or good-looking girl of this age will still be a virgin so I'm really impressed. You're not so bad... Winny, right?"I sat up and shook my head, "No, I'm Jade."He smiled, "Jade....right...Winny was the first girl who tried to deceive me. Why are you acting so scared? I know this is your first time but by the time I'm done with you, you'll be begging for more. You girls always do."Hearing his words, I felt a deeper sense of unease. I was disgusted by how promiscuous he was and ashamed that I had become the subject of his bet with his sick friends. However, I didn't have any other choice. I had tried everything and eventually jumped on this supposed once-in-a-lifetime opportunity because I refused to lose my Henry to the cold hands of death.He regarded me for a while and asked, "Do you have a boyfriend?"I shook my head, "No, I don't. I'm just doing this to save the life of my relative."He nodded, "So I heard. You know what? I'll pay you double the amount; a hundred thousand dollars. I'm feeling really generous tonight."I stared at him in astonishment and recalled how hard I had struggled to raise fifty thousand dollars for my boyfriend without success. All the money I had saved up for college so far amounted to three thousand dollars and Henry's mom had no money either. The doctors had almost given up on him and now I was being offered double the amount just because I was willing to sell myself."Thank you," I mumbled.He poured me a glass of wine and handed it to me. I shook my head because I had never tasted alcohol before. However, he frowned, "Do you want to ruin my good mood?"I shook my head and took the glass from him. I stared at the glass while he downed several glasses."Let's just get this over with," I said inwardly and emptied the glass of wine. I belched afterward and gave the glass back to him."You can go take a shower now," he told me.I nodded, got up, and entered the bathroom. I spent some minutes inside bathing but my legs had become wobbly and I could barely stand.I knew that the wine I drank was beginning to take effect but there was nothing I could do about it. I reached for the towel and began to slowly wipe my body."Open the door, you can't take your bath forever," Max said as he suddenly knocked on the bathroom door.My eyes widened as I had not yet put on my clothes. I reached for my jeans but there was no way I could put it on without falling on my butt.""Open the door right now, or I'll kick it open," Max threatened.I quickly tied the towel around my body and unlocked the door which I had locked from the inside.When he opened the door and saw me wearing only a towel, his eyes traveled down to my thighs and he smiled. He reached out his hand and pulled off the towel from my body while I gasped in shock.I instinctively tried to cover my breasts with one hand as the other was placed on the wall. He laughed, feeling amused by my behavior, and lifted me, bridal style, out of the bathroom.He gently placed me on the bed and I quickly crossed my legs and closed my eyes. I knew it would have been different if Henry was the one here, I would have been in a state of pure bliss."Open your legs," I heard him say and I opened my eyes instead. He was in his birthday suit at this point, kneeling on the bed in front of me and staring hungrily at me."Open your legs for me, Jade," he repeated and I slowly uncrossed my legs.I lifted my knees but joined my thighs together. He had a predatory gleam in his eyes as he knew there was no escaping for me.He placed both hands on my knees and gently parted my thighs. I tried to close them again but he warned, "Ah ah....you wouldn't want me to tie your legs apart now, would you? Be a good girl and let me in."I closed my eyes and opened my legs as I tried to imagine that Henry was the one in front of me. I felt his fingers gently rub my folds and gasped as a foreign sensation suddenly filled my body.My eyes opened and a moan escaped my lips as his hands briefly fondled my breasts before he buried his face between my legs.JADEWhen I opened my eyes in the morning, I felt sore down there. Last night, Max had gone on and on until I passed out. My head ached and my body felt weak but I knew I had to get the money from Max to the doctors.I got up, put on my clothes, and looked around the room but there was no sign of Max Anderson. Ignoring the pain in my body, I rushed into the bathroom but he wasn't there.I became alarmed, thinking he had left without giving me the money but then I spotted a cheque slip on the table beside the bed. A hundred thousand dollars was written on it along with his signature but there was no name and date on it. I heaved a sigh of relief and quickly left with the cheque slip. When I arrived at the hospital, Henry's mom was by his bedside sitting dejectedly."I got the money," I said, giving the cheque to her.She took it from me and stared at it in shock, "A hundred thousand! Max Anderson? How did you get him to give you this cheque?""I got a job working for him," I replied.
JADE"What? How can you say I disgust you?" I asked. "Henry, it's me, Jade, the one who went above and beyond to save your life.""Yes," he replied. "I know you are the Jade who saved my life, and also the Jade who stabbed me in the back.""I stabbed you in the back?" I asked, puzzled. "What are you talking about, Henry?""Don't pretend before me, Jade." He snapped. "I know how you went about having sex with different men at your place of work."I shook my head, "No, baby, I didn't do such a thing."He scoffed, "You didn't do such a thing? Tell me, how did you get the money you paid for my treatment?""Well, actually," I tried to explain. "Listen, Henry, it's not.....""Don't tell me that," he yelled, interrupting me. "Yes, I am grateful for what you did, but you know I would never have given my consent for you to do that. How could you betray me in such a way?""Henry, you were dying, and your mom told me to do whatever was necessary. I never planned to do such a thing. I went to my
JADEAt the station, Henry appeared but I denied setting fire to his car despite how much he insisted I did it. "Do you have any evidence?" The officer speaking to us asked him."I saw her with my eyes," he replied. "Before I could come out of the house, my car had already gone up in flames. I spent almost fifty thousand dollars on that car and I am yet to insure it. She has to give me back my money, I don't care how she gets it."I scoffed and stared at the officer as I said, "He owes me a hundred thousand dollars and he wants me to pay him? Let him give me back my money."The officer sighed and asked Henry, "Do you owe her a hundred thousand dollars?"He shook his head, "That's a big lie. She gave my mom a hundred thousand dollars out of her own volition. No one asked her for it and there was no agreement to pay it back, so I do not owe her.Even though I had decided not to cry, tears rolled down my cheeks, "Henry, was it not from the hundred thousand dollars your life was saved? W
JADEI suddenly freaked out, "No, doctor! This cannot be! This pregnancy is going to ruin my life. Please help me, I need to get rid of it. I cannot keep it.""You need to calm down," the doctor replied. "If you want to get rid of this pregnancy, it can be done. However, we need the consent of the father.""But I'm not married, and he doesn't even know," I replied."I'm sorry, but that's just it." The doctor responded.As I left the health center and returned to my workplace, I decided that I would hide my pregnancy for the time being and save up enough money. Afterward, I would go to a different hospital where I'd be allowed to get rid of the pregnancy without the consent of the father.I returned to work like nothing had happened but the constant morning sickness made life difficult for me. Nevertheless, I continued to do my best and did whatever I could to get tips.Two months later, after gathering a sufficient amount of money, I planned to visit the hospital the next day for the
JADEMax's father stared at me in surprise at first and then chuckled, "My son impregnated you?"I nodded, "Yes, sir. I am pregnant for Max Anderson."He shook his head, "Max has really outdone himself this time. Couldn't he have found someone better?"Hearing his words made me feel ashamed because I knew I looked horrible in my state.The man stared at me a little more and pointed his finger at me, saying, "Listen, the fact that we're wealthy doesn't mean anyone can take advantage of us. If you insist that Max is responsible for your pregnancy, I will get a test done after speaking to him.However, if it turns out that you're lying to me, I will deal with you severely, regardless of your condition.""No, sir. I would never dare to lie about my child." I assured him."In that case, come inside and wait for him." He instructed the men at the gate to let me in and they immediately did.He drove into the compound and asked me to wait on the patio for Max to arrive while he went into the
JADE"This is not about what you want," Max's father responded. "Yes, you don't want to be a father, but you put the child in there. Who else would take responsibility for it? Me? I'm too old for that!""So what am I supposed to do with her?" Max shot back. "Because she's pregnant, she gets to be my wife and....?""Hey, no one said anything about getting married." His father cut him off."I don't want to marry you, Max" I chipped in. "I have no intention of doing that.""Oh really? Isn't that what a gold digger would say?" Max asked me."She's just like the other girls, Dad. They'll do anything to get their claws into me." He tried to convince his father."Then why did you let them get close enough?" his father questioned."I'm very sorry, Max." I butted in again. "I know that I wasn't supposed to get pregnant."He scoffed, "Oh you knew?"Turning to his father, he said earnestly, "Dad, I gave this girl a hundred thousand dollars. I remember it because I've never paid that much money f
MAXJade began to gasp for air and I realized I was strangling her. I quickly let go while she fell back on the bed.Seeing how she struggled to breathe made me feel guilty. I wasn't someone who would physically assault a pregnant woman or any woman for that matter. But I hated opportunists like Jade and I regretted ever meeting her. I knew my past was messy and it wasn't so long ago but I'd always been careful and fully protected when dealing with girls.Jade was my first and only mistake. At the time, I thought it didn't matter because she was a virgin and looked innocent. Heck, I thought I got value for my money, but in the end, it was all a big trap and she made sure to get pregnant with triplets to rip my gullible father off completely.I looked at her with unconcealed hatred and when I turned to leave, she said, "Hold on, Max.""What is it now?" I snapped."I never intended to come into your life this way or try to turn it upside down. I promise that I'll not interfere with wha
JADEAfter Max angrily left my room, I stood by the window and stared at his car as he drove out of the compound.I didn't like the fact that he was angry with me but what could I do? He seemed different from the man who had spoken to me so calmly the night I lost my virginity. But I guess that's the nature of men. They would say or do anything to get what they wanted, and Henry was the first man who taught me that. I had just three months left before becoming a mother.I didn't know what was going to happen then, but I was sure of one thing; I would get back up. But first, I needed to find out what Max's father's plans for me were.Right at that moment, he knocked on my door. He had bought so many things for me that I didn't even know existed. I watched as they were being delivered into my room and neatly arranged so I would not have to move a muscle.Seeing their grandfather so excited to meet my unborn children filled me with so much hope for the future."Thank you so much, Mr. An
