THE BILLIONAIRE'S MISTRESS Let’s be friends?
They both sat in the car, waiting for the bus. Chris had wanted to leave but Alex stopped her, telling her to wait till the bus arrived. So while they both waited, an air of awkwardness filled the car. Neither was saying anything.They both had nothing to say to each other. Both had a lot on their heads but nothing in their mouths so they sat there, each sorting the mass of confusion in their minds.Christine sat, turning her face to the open window. The night breeze and wind from each passing car seemed to help her ease down. She looked at the stars in the dark hue of the sky and cursed her sympathy for offering to go with Alex to his house. She cursed herself for sleeping off in his house. Ruth had been frequenting his house lately, what if she had found her there? What would Ruth have felt? Ruth was her only friend, the one that had helped her out of a rough situation. Even if Ruth was being the worst girlfriend, Christine could not do anything to hurt her.Alex on the driver’s

Christine saw the house lights on and knew Ruth was around before she even got inside. She dropped her bag and collapsed on the couch in a heap. Ruth who had seen her come in jumped to her side excitedly.“He wants us to go on a date tomorrow. Oh my God! I am so excited!” she screeched so loud Christine couldn't help but roll her eyes in irritation."I think he wants to propose! Oh my gosh! What will I wear?!" Ruth went on and Christine couldn't hold back anymore.“Just two weeks ago, you were complaining about how he was moving too fast and now you’re this excited?” Christine asked without a hint of enthusiasm.“I will grow to love him. I don’t care about how fast he’s moving,” Ruth replied and relaxed on the couch with a smile on her face.Christine observed her for a few seconds before she let out a sigh and rested her head on Ruth's shoulders “I see you’ve talked with your mum," Christine whispered “How’d you know?” Ruth mumbled with a small giggle.“You always turn out calm af

“Yes. Bye.” Ruth turned to Chris who was staring at her intently. “What?”It was a Monday morning and Christine who still had time on her hands watched as Ruth talked on the phone to Alex. She seemed to like him and that pleased Christine a lot.“I was hoping you’d leave the house today. No shopping or dates today?” Christine asked, taunting her friend.“Actually, today’s the day I get to meet Peter Pencraft.” Ruth smiled, jumping off the bed to the dressing table to get a curler for her hair.“Alex’s dad?” Christine asked“Yes,” Ruth replied humming her favorite song.“That’s nice. I was hoping you’d go out so–““So you can invite a guy, isn’t it?” Ruth mocked“Aha, as if I ever will,”“You need to get a guy though. If you continue this way, you’ll end up an old unmarried woman with cats.”“That doesn’t sound so bad.”Ruth turned to Christine in fake horror. “Do not say that girl, that’s a tough life to live.”“Thank you for your concern, I’m off to work,” Christine said and picked u

Soon after they had finished eating, Alex and Mr. Richard went together to have a business talk —as Mr. Richard called it, but Ruth knew her father was going with Alex to talk about the marriage plans.He also was as desperate as her mother when it came to Alex. He was eager to see both of them get married and Ruth knew it was just so he could make a name for himself in his industry. Pencraft's company and her father's company were in the same industry, making them a competition. The world knew R&D stood nowhere near The Pencrafts both in worth and in popularity. While The Pencrafts had their A-game on, scoring the top position amongst businesses in the same industry, R&D was barely keeping their third spot, constantly shuffling with the fourth spot. So this marriage was a big deal to the entire family."Snap out of whatever you are thinking of and follow me to my room," Rhoda ordered, leading the way to her room.Ruth got to her mother's room and plopped on the couch in the sittin

"Yesterday we kissed and I got so turned on." Ruth smiled at her reflection on her phone before turning to her friend's bewildered face."With the way, you guys are going, you'll get proposed to soon," Christine commented, spilling some popcorn from the bowl in her hand as she bounced on the couch."That would be nice, at least this courting stage will be over," Ruth replied, picking the remote to change the channel."Are you that eager to marry him?" Christine asked, "It is fun to watch you guys, just last month you were complaining about how fast he was going and now you're so eager to marry him, that's cute.""I cannot help but think of Michael," Ruth said blatantly."Are you crazy!""Stupidly horny, yes." Ruth smiled. She knew her thoughts were crazy, but she couldn't hold it."I thought you'd changed.""It's not my fault he wants to kiss me and make me look at the stars for hours, calling it bliss. He got me flustered and had me watch the stars, he didn't even get the memo when I

"Where am I going to meet you?" Ruth asked as the driver drove down a lonely, dark path."Somewhere special," he said over the phone.Alex had sent her a message hours earlier, telling her to dress up and come to him. He told her a car was waiting for her just in front of her apartment. He told her the driver would take her down to where he was. When she dressed up and got out of her apartment, she saw the driver where Alex said he would be."What surprise do you have in store for me?" She asked him."This one is the best," he answered and she could imagine the smile on his face."You have a lot of time on your hands these days. You've been paying attention to me nonstop," she commented dryly hoping he noticed the sarcasm over the phone."I always have time for you."She only sneered in response"Wait for it..." He suddenly said after a while of silence, building anticipation. Ruth looked around, unsure if he was around for him to have known the location of the car. The car came to

"I can't believe I'm getting married soon. Like I've never dreamt of it happening till I turn thirty but now, barely three months after meeting Alex, I'm getting married," Ruth chattered over the phone to her cousin."It's surprising, I know. I mean... the last time I was with you, you were nursing feelings for that lawyer man while sleeping with Michael by the side," Sonia said over the phone, "Now you have to stay committed to one man for the rest of your freaking life?""That part is what scares me the most. How do I stay committed to just one man till I grow and get wrinkles?" Ruth laughed, "It's a lot to take in but I have no choice. The faster this goes, the earlier I become his wife. I wonder what life as his wife would be like. I want to know if he's someone I'll stay with or leave after a few years.""And what are the criteria for staying or leaving?""He has to be good in bed...""Ruth!" Christine perked up from her bed. Ever since Ruth started her phone conversation with So

Christine heaved a sigh as she walked into the large living room. Her steps faltered as she stood in the middle of the room taking in everything around her like it was her first time there. A small smile sat on her face as her mind wondered how she thought Ruth lived her whole life in a house that could pass for a palace but it wasn't a big thing to have anymore.The first and last day she came into this house, she had commented on how high the ceiling was and how the chandelier seemed like a constellation. That same day, Rhoda called her a gold-seeking thief because of her relationship with Ruth. —That day was a mess and Christine could remember walking out of the house in tears. She knew it wasn't her fault she was an orphan. It wasn't her fault she was poor. It wasn't her fault Ruth wanted to be friends with her and wasn't trying to mop off Ruth but she couldn't convince Rhoda otherwise. She avoided Ruth for a week straight until the latter came to apologize saying her mum had

THE BILLIONAIRE'S MISTRESS Chapter 33: Clicking Trouble
~Alex could not stop smiling.Even during the meeting he had which showed that he had lost a sizeable amount of his stocks in a company in Europe, a news that should have made him sad, he continued to smile. He could not help himself.Seeing Christine after all this time was the best thing to happen to him today. Well, after getting married to his wife that is.When Ruth had asked him to let her go and get Christine back to New York, he had agreed without a second thought.He had guided his agreement under the veil that Ruth needed her best friend since she had always been a part of Ruth's life but actually, he had not agreed because of that. In fact, the thought of Ruth needing Christine especially to settle down in her newly made marital home was absurd and something he would never have tolerated but he needed to see her.He had offered Ruth his private jet to go and get Christine because he could not wait for the delay a commercial airplane would pose.And when Ruth had asked tha

~"I told you I was going to succeed..." Ruth said with a look of triumph on her face and Christine wished she could slap the look off of her face."Hello, Christine. Nice to see you again," Alex finally said to Christine.He spoke in a voice so deep and smooth that something stirred within Christine.Christine smiled at his words not because he had spoken to her but because she knew without a doubt from his voice that he meant it when he said it was nice seeing her again."Thank you. Same here," She managed to say in response.Her eyes flicked to her friend to see if she must have noticed the awkwardness between her and Alex but Ruth looked entirely oblivious to everything."Can you imagine Chris wanted to stay at a hotel instead of with us?" Ruth said to Alex.Christine closed her eyes in annoyance and closed her hands into fists while tucking her lips into her mouth with a wish that she could land her fist into Ruth's face.She did not know why Ruth was such a blabber mouth. Now Al

"Get up Ruth! We will miss our flight!" Christine called out to Ruth from the door of the room"Stop stressing! We are using Alex's private jet," Ruth groaned from the bed before using the pillow to cover her head from the glare of the light that Christine had turned on"Even private jets have schedules, Ruth!" Christine said before matching over to the bed to get Ruth out of it.She was not ecstatic to be leaving but she had accepted her fate and she was pissed that the designer of this whole plan had not even gotten up from bed.Christine placed a palm on Ruth's forehead."Still have a fever?" She asked Ruth."My head bangs like a marching band," Ruth mumbled in pain."Serves you right. Next time you won't go and get wasted again," Christine scolded her.After throwing up early this morning, Ruth had to take an aspirin to deal with her body pains before sleeping.Christine had been worried. She feared that those men she had gone out with had put something in her drink or harmed her.
THE BILLIONAIRE'S MISTRESS Chapter 30: She is Pregnant
Christine felt more relaxed after her bath.Her first foster mother after leaving the orphanage had always said that one felt better after a bath although she was not sure if this feeling of relaxation she was feeling was from the bath or from what had transpired during the bath.Clara, her first foster mother was the best she ever had. It had hurt her so much when she had to leave her care when she went to jail.Clara had been an orphan just like her and when she had left orphanage care at the age of sixteen she had refused to stay with a foster family and had survived on her own. She had to make a living for herself which she did by selling drugs.Christine had not known she was a drug dealer when she started living with her.

She even stopped doing drugs in her prese

"A friend?" Christine asked."Yes, a friend," Ruth answered.From the way Ruth's eyes danced with mischief, Christine knew that this was more than just a friend and that there was more to the story."Spill," Christine said in a commanding tone as she looked at Ruth through squinted eyes.Ruth rolled her eyes and said, "He's just a guy I met on Tinder.""On Tinder?" Christine asked shocked as she lifted her body off the bed to have a better view of her friend."Yes, on Tinder," Ruth repeated with an attitude stressing the letter 'r'."What the fuck are you on Tinder for? What are you looking for on Tinder? Do you forget you are married?"The only answer she got from Ruth was just a shrug of her shoulders as she ignored Christine and focused her attention back on the beeping iPhone in her hands.Christine was not going to let this conversation die and so she got off the bed and walked over to where Ruth stood.Ruth was so engrossed in whatever it was she was doing on her phone that she
THE BILLIONAIRE'S MISTRESS Chapter 28: Caught Moaning
Christine was livid with fear. She was still confused from being jerked up from sleep and was the more confused to hear Ruth's question.Her sleepy eyes were opened to twice their size as they tried to make out the silhouette of Ruth's figure which was looking above her.Her room was dark. She had not turned the light on when she had come in and collapsed onto her bed. At least that was what she remembered happening. But she was able to see Ruth's face thanks to the dim light that filtered into the room from the opened door.She however could not read Ruth's expression through the dimly lit room but she wished she could. It would have given her a better understanding of what she was about to face."Um..." She started to say trying to fill the silence between them."You were moaning my husband's name, Christine. Why was that?" Ruth asked.Her voice was not helping matters. Christine longed to read Ruth's emotion in her voice since her facial expression was out of the question but Ruth
THE BILLIONAIRE'S MISTRESS Chapter 27: Wrong Dreams
"Why would you do that?" Christine asked. She was flabbergasted by what she had just heard."Find a vibrator. Or handcuffs. Or a whip," Ruth added."How are any of those any better?" Christine asked wide-eyed."Is that not what you told me to do?" Ruth asked.Christine shook her head. She had given up on Ruth."Do whatever you feel is best my dear," Christine sighed. "I am super tired and I need some rest.""Unfortunately for you, there is no rest. You need to get your things, We have to be back in New York today so that you can report for your new position," Ruth said."About that, so you are serious," Christine said."Did I look like I was joking?" Ruth asked with an attitude as she got up from the chair and walked over to where she had dumped a couple of shopping bags on the table."But why would you do such a thing? I am happy over here," Christine said. She was already panicking knowing what her return to New York entailed. It meant meeting with the one man who seemed to have po
THE BILLIONAIRE'S MISTRESS Chapter 26: Crazy Reasons
It was as if the words Ruth had just spoken were some magical words as the whole world seemed to come to a stand still as dhe blurted it out."What?!" Christine bellowed, breaking the silence."I am leaving the marriage Chris! I can't continue like this!" Ruth reiterated."What are people going to say? What are your parents going to–Oh my God you're mum is going to kill me!" Christine shouted as the repercussions of Ruth's proposal downed on her."Stop being dramatic for fuck sake. I won't be the first woman to get divorced," Ruth said with a roll of her eye."But the marriage is barely a month old! People are going to talk Ruth! You guys are still supposed to be on honeymoon for fuck's sake!" Christine exclaimed.Ruth had not yet divorced Alex but Christine was already feeling the pain that would follow her if that happened. Ruth's mother would insist that she had a hand in it.'But you know you could end up having him for yourself if she leaves him?' a small voice in her head spoke.
THE BILLIONAIRE'S MISTRESS Chapter 25: The Wrong Fetish
She was finally ready to talk and Christine was eager to know what was the problem that would make Ruth look for her and trace her down to this place.Christine shifted closer closing the gap that was between them."It was all a trap Chris, I should have seen it but I was blind. I should have read the signs, all the red flags that were being waved right in my face, but I did not," Ruth sounded so heartbroken and emotional and Chris hated herself every minute. She had a hand in Ruth's marriage to Alex so she was part responsible for whatsoever pain her friend was going through.For Alex's sake, she hoped whatever Ruth was going to tell her was not true. For his sake, she hoped he had never hurt her friend because she was going to bring down fire and brimstone on him."It's okay baby," Christine cooed to a sad Ruth as she carressed her hair with her hands. Even though she was eager to hear what Ruth had to say, she did not want to push her and end up shutting her up. She wanted her to
