Tristan's POVI tried to stay back at the conference room but I couldn't, Rissa was driving me crazy, and not in the sexual way but in the whipped kind of way.Who would have thought that a few years back I had been calling Rhys and Ethan whipped guys and now I was acting more whipped than they ever did.Mine was worse than theirs because the person I'm seemingly whipped for doesn't even wanna be with me.I just want her to open up to me why she really doesn't want to be with me, it's not that hard to do.She just walked out of my office after I kissed her.I didn't even know when I opened up to her about part of why I don't do relationship, but for her I was ready to be vulnerable again.Her past has something to do with her denial, but what past does a 19 year old have that can make her shut out feeling off her life like that?Yes I was actually ready to beg her in front of everyone if it would actually make her mine, she has me that good on a short leash.I haven't stopped looking
Tristan's POVRhys and Belle would arrive later today, Rissa and i had automatically gone back to ignoring everything that happened between us, it was fucking killing me.I was slowly losing my mind and it was all because of Rissa, I had a lunch meeting so I left the office to go for it.I'm itching to talk to her but I'm holding back, I don't wanna scare her off, I know now that it's not because of me that she's holding back, it's something to do with her.I walk into the restaurant, all heads turned to look at me, I was used to it already, asides the fact that I was on of the most eligible bachelor in New York, I was also very handsome and breathtaking, not to brag but that was the truth.I think it was a thing with the Walkers, we all knew how attractive we looked and we used it to our advantage, the only person who was really not bothered by how they look and all the attention was Rhys.Even Elaine had that cockiness in her, even though she was a lady, to sum it up, Rhys was the m
Tristan's POV"So do you wanna tell me about this Rissa Ethan has been yapping about lately to everyone that cares to listen" Rhys asks as we both take a swig of our drinksI run my hands through my face "Trust Ethan not to keep his mouth shut, I know he's enjoying this more than he should" I mutter out remembering how he just blurted it out to Rhys yesterday while we were talking.I didn't know it was that obvious that I was occupied mentally until Rhys pointed it out yesterday.His eyes are trained on me from across the recliner chair beside the swimming pool"She's uh... She's an intern that works at the company as my PA" I pause and sigh out loud "She's smart, beautiful, sassy" I chuckle out the last part thinking about all the sass I've had to endure from Rissa"And she's ten years younger than you" Rhys adds making me look at him and he just cocks his head sideways and i just sigh out"Yes, she's ten years younger but trust me if you meet her, you'd never know" I rush out to him
Clarissa's POVTristan has a twin, and I foolishly mistook his twin for his girlfriend, oh my God.So I'd been giving him attitude for nothing.He probably thinks I'm stupid, shit shit shit, Rissa.But they look nothing alike.Tristan is blonde with blue eyes, She has dark, straight, long hair with..... Blue eyes.Dammit, why didn't I notice.Actually looking at it now, she looks like their father, while Tristan looks like their mother.Wait I didn't even know Tristan had other siblings, I thought he was an only child.Okay I thought I knew him but I was wrong, I knew only things the internet showed me, not important things.I was now standing in front of him and his sister in his office, he called me here, I wonder what he wants to tell me.I was looking at her, no wonder I never saw her picture with him because she's not one of his flings"Will you come home tonight"? She asks him and he contemplates for a while before shaking his head"Nah I think I'll be at Mine's" he says arrangi
Tristan's POVI pick her up and set her on the Kitchen island as I stand in between her spread legs, I let my hands slowly move into the shirt she's wearing, which is really big because it's mine.I cup her breast in my palms, they feel warm, round and soft.I pinch her already erect nipple and she shudders tugging at my hair.My lips leave hers and I move down to her neck as I latch my mouth onto her sweet spot, I hear her moan lowly as I start nibbing and sucking on it.Her hands are buried in my hair as I'm sucking on her sweet spot and my hand on her breast, I squeeze it gently before letting my other hand move in between her already spread legs.I caress her thighs, then I let my hand wander close to her pussy, she's only putting on panties, she tenses as I make contact with her pussy from the fabric of her panties.Her panties is soaking wet, I curse out before hooking my hands on the waistband of her panties and pulling it down.I stop kissing her as I bend down so I'm eye leve
Tristan's POV"Are you sure about this"? She asks me for the tenth time tonight and I rest my hands on her thighs and squeeze lightly"Red, I'm fucking sure about this, we've been in this car for 10 minutes now, we really should go inside" I answer her and she breathes out."You know once we step out of this car, there's definitely no turning back, by the end of this date the Media and probably everyone in the business world will know" she says making me nod"I don't care about all that Red, all I care about is you and you're here with me so let's do this" I say taking her hand in mine "and besides it's just one date, the first among others, the earlier they get used to seeing us together the better because this will definitely not be the last time" I tell her with wink.I can see how nervous and scared she is, she already told me about her fear of going on this date with me and I assured her nothing of that sort will happen.She thinks being seen with me like this will make people th
Tristan's POVThey say the fine line between like and love is often blurred before we even realize it and I'm sure that's what has happened between Rissa and I.Without realizing it, I had fallen in love with her, something i promised myself I'd never do again, not to any woman.Before her, my life was simple and I lived by the same rule everyday of my life.Go to work, finish on time, go to a club, find a new girl and take to my penthouse for a night of release.Never in my life did think I'd be bringing a woman to my house, never in my 29 years of living did I think I'd want anyone as much as I want Rissa by my side.But her lying in front of me in nothing but her naked body and round perky breasts staring right back at me, I know I'm whipped, I'm fucked and I don't even care, because for Rissa I'd be fucked a million times over to have her with me, to have her look at me like this.I bend down as I take one of her mounds in my mouth and the other in a gentle squeeze in my hand, I f
Tristan's POV"Baby you're not meeting my whole family, it's just Tilda, Belle, Amber and Rhys" I explain to her and she just sighs and groans nervously "mom and dad won't be there, neither will Elaine" I tell her and she sinks further in her seatI had been trying to convince her for the past one hour that she would be just fine but She's been adamant, she was shocked to hear that I had another sibling aside Elaine."It still doesn't help the fact that I'm nervous" she mutters and I just smile at her before taking her hand in mine."Red, Tilda is a little kid you've met before, Amber is just a kid too, Belle and Rhys are cool, trust me you'll love them" I tell her reassuringly."If you told me the file I was bringing to your house was meant for your brother and we had to bring it together, I wouldn't have come" she says with a pout and a playful glare"Look I'll be by your side the whole time" I calm her "if you're this scared about meeting a bunch of 3 and 6 year olds and my very co
Clarissa's POV"Alex, come out of there right now, don't make me come get you" I yelled out to my 3 year old daughter"No mommy, I want Daddy" she whined out from inside the little tentI grumbled out, why is she so stubborn, I don't remember being this stubborn"Baby, daddy's busy and can't come get you" I tried to reason but she didn't even budgeOn cue, the back door opened and Tristan walked out, even after 3 years together, he still manages to steal the air from meI breathe out "oh thank God, can you please get your daughter to leave this stupid tent, her food is getting cold" I mutter out and he just laughed"Angel, come out, mommy needs you to come eat" he voiced out and I heard her squeal before she ran outside, I rolled my eyes at her as she jumped on her father."Daddy" she squealed out"Angel, your mommy tells me you don't want to eat" he says looking at her and she just pouted"I want you to eat with me daddy" she whined"But you know daddy's busy" he said pushing her hai
Tristan's POV"Baby, she'll come around, she's just hurt, pregnancy can be scary you know" mom said calmlyI just told her about Rissa, at first she was happy and excited until I told her about what I said, she almost smacked my head."Mom she doesn't want to see me, what am I going to do"? I asked sadly "she thinks I don't love her, but I do, with all my heart" I tell her"Honey keep trying and she'll see that you do love her, be like your father, relentless" she says with a smile "if there's one thing your father is good at is being relentless and I see you have that trait, you got her to be yours before, you can do it again Tristan" she tells me putting her hand on mine"But I'm scared mom" I tell her softly"I know baby, you'll be fine, get your woman and your child back" she says with a smile before pecking my cheek "I gotta rest honey, I'm tired" she says getting up and going upstairs.I relax back on the couch with a sigh, she's right, I really should get my woman back I miss
Tristan's POV"Why do you look like that man"? Ethan asked the moment I walked into their home, I just breathe out before sitting downI had just left Rissa's place after waiting for over an hour hoping she'd come outside so I can talk to her but no luck."Where's Ava"? I asked and Ethan just raised his brows and I looked away uninterested, I'm not really in the mood for any funny games"Baby, Tristan is here to see you" he yelled to her in the kitchen and she muttered something"No asking about Tilda huh"? He asked teasingly and I just breathe out.Ava walked out of the kitchen with a towel in her hands "Hey Tris, what's up"? She asked sitting beside her husband, I looked at them and wondered, why can't my own life be as simple and easy as theirs.From the onset it has always been complicated for me"I messed up, I messed it up big time" I whispered out and I see them both look at me with confusion"What do you mean Tris, don't tell me you cheated on her again"? Ethan asked and I jus
Clarissa's POVWith just that one word, he retracted his hands from my face like it was on fire."What"? He asked looking at me "Tell me you're joking Red" he said still looking at me as if to actually confirm if I'm joking."I am pregnant Tristan" I repeated looking back at him"What do you mean you're pregnant, how? When"? He rushed out "What do you mean how, I am telling you what the doctors told me and you're asking how"? I whispered out"I thought you were on pill, so how the fuck are you pregnant"? He asked getting up"Well apparently, the pill isn't 100% efficient and I may have missed my dosage one time" I said matching his tone.This isn't how I imagined this to go but the sooner the better"You can't be pregnant now Rissa, at least not now" he voiced out and I scoffed"You think I don't know that"? I almost yelled"Well apparently you didn't know it enough to be careful, you should have been more careful" he gritted out making me look at him wide eyes"I should have been mo
Tristan's POVI didn't know she was going to kiss me like that, one minute we were talking and the next, her lips were on mine.I literally felt my skin crawl with disgust, making me wonder how on Earth I ever had anything to do with her She looked so fake and I felt bile rise up my throat, Shantel.That was her nameShe's nothing like my Red, she was one of my many one night stands that never got the memo that I'm not interested in them in any way.I only looked up after I saw the sinister smile on her face, I knew she had played me right into her game, Rissa had seen it and from where she saw it, it didn't seem like she forced me.I breathe out and run my hands through my face, my mind was all over the place with so many thoughts.I had only seen her like twice today, at home when I took my bath in the bathroom and when she came to drop the schedule on my table and both times she wasn't smiling at all.My office door opened and Ethan walked in, he scrunched his face upon seeing min
Clarissa's POV"Are you sure you're okay baby"? He asked for the millionth time tonight and I just nodded"I'm fine Tris, I was just a little bit dizzy okay" I assured him putting my hand on his arm, he still looked worried."I guess it's the stress from the work I'd been doing all week"I said referring to the whole event we had to plan, well mostly myself and Ava because the boys were too busy to help out.I had been feeling weak and dizzy all week, I just haven't really had enough rest, and Maya has been complaining that I take some time off work, it's almost time for my internship to end so the workload has become much.Also I asked Tristan not to give me any sort of special treatment because we were dating now."Can I borrow your date for a few minutes"? I heard a rather gruff voice say beside me and I almost jumped before looking back and seeing an older guy, not too old but older than Tristan.I gave him a weak smile before looking over to Tristan "I just need to discuss some bu
Tristan's POV"So you're saying you worked on this all morning, with Jay"? She asked me looking at me with a small smile and I just noddedShe walked towards me close to bed and put her hands around my neck, making me put my arms on her waist"You know, you didn't have to go through all that trouble, besides we had already gone on a date before this" she whispered and I pecked her lips"That doesn't count Red, this is our official first date, I wanted to do something special for you, because you're special to me" I tell her and I see the blush creeping onto her face"Do you know you're so cheesy, I mean I didn't expect an old man like you to be so romantic and cheesy" she said giving me a lopsided grin and I cocked my brows at her"Oh yeah? Old man huh"? I ask and she just chuckles"But I like it, infact I love it Tris, thank you" she whispered out"Anything for you Red" I mutter out before dipping and taking her lips in mine, I pull her closer to me so I can feel her body.Her nipple
Clarissa's POVThe moment I saw him I stopped in my tracks, what is he doing here?Is Tristan okay?The others seem to stop too and all our chattering died down as he looked up and his eyes found mine, he breathe out a sigh of relief before walking towards me.I was already fucking nervous and worried, and his expression wasn't even helping me at all."Rissa" he breath out as he walked towards me "ladies" he greeted the others with a nod before gesturing for me to follow him.I was skeptical, I looked at Elaine, Ava and Maya and they all shrugged for me to go with him with the same confused look on their faces."Hi" I said meekly as soon as we were out of reach for the others."Hey, I came to see you" he said sounding nervous and I was becoming nervous myself "Tristan.... He" he paused and I just lost it, I was already in full panic mode."Is he okay? Did something happen to him"? I threw questions at him and he just breathe out and scratched the back of his head "Talk to me Jay, did
Tristan's POV"It needs to be perfect Jay" I tell him going back to arrange the chairs, I was fucking nervous as it is"Relax Tris, I'm pretty sure this looks perfect" he says with a sigh before plopping down on the chair "besides we've been working on this all morning" he adds.I look at the clock and see that Maya is running late, I was about to point that fact out before the doorbell interrupted meI sigh out before going to open the door and there she stood, before rushing in"I'm sorry I'm late, I had to look for a way to get out of there without her seeing me" she breathe out walking inside, she stopped after seeing Justin."Hi" she whispered and he just smirked at me before giving her a smile, very flirty bastard"Hey there Maya, Right"? He asks and she nods with a blush on her cheek.I groan out "this isn't the time to flirt ladies, we've got work to do" I voice out interrupting their little bubble of flirting, I see Justin glare at me and I just roll my eyes at him."Okay hav
