CHAPTER 4
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56This whole week has been a complete drag. Lucas had said he wanted an answer by Friday so I was anxious through the whole week.
I had finally decided on my decision, I'm going to say yes to him. It's only just sex I have told myself a million times.Today is finally Friday and I'm meeting him in 2 hours. I have taken a shower already, I'm currently deciding on what to wear. I want to call Ari or Kathy and ask for an opinion on what to wear but I don't know how to explain why I'm dressing up to meet Kathy's brother.
I finally decided on a short elegant dress, not too short or too sexy. It's gorgeous and sexy but at thesame time it doesn't say I'm trying too much.By the time I finished getting ready, Lucas had already sent a car waiting for me downstairs.The drive to his penthouse was short. When we arrived someone took me to his office and told me to wait for him, apparently he wasn't even there yet.So I went through my interview questions and notes as I waited for him. He arrived 30 minutes later."Hello Vanessa," he said joining me in his office. He looked so gorgeous with brown eyes, dark hair, and beautiful exotic skin, he looked at me with look the same as before. It was a penetrating stare, as if he read my thoughts like words on paper. He was dressed in a black suit and tie even though it was unlikely he was working."Sorry I'm late. Had to take care of some things at home." He adds.
"Home?" I ask making conversation so I won't be so awkward."Yeah, the manor." He answers pouring himself some scotch."I thought this was your home." I say."I don't live here, I only do business and entertain here." He says with a smirk.And then I get his meaning, he only uses his penthouse for sex with women and business in the home office.I don't ask anymore questions after that."Do you want something to drink or eat," he asks."No I'm good." I say."So before we begin, I believe you have an answer for me." He says sitting down opposite me."On second thought, I would like that drink." I say suddenly nervous.He stands up and I think he is going to pour a drink for me but then he passes me his scotch, the one he had been drinking from. I collect it and take a long sip as it burns my throat."So? The answer to my question." He says again."I have thought about what you said, I don't actually understand everything you mean by it but yeah let's do it. Let's have sex." I say blushing a little.
"It's not just sex Vanessa, it's fucking. And I'll answer all questions you have before we do anything." He says looking at me through his dark eyes.
"Is it like a one time thing, only?" I blurt out the first question on my mind."No, unless you want it to be. I'm going to be in L.A for a month and during which we'll spend the time together. I won't sleep with anyone else and you won't sleep with anyone else during the time we're together."
"Do you have more questions. He asks again.""No I'm fine.""Good, now let's start with the interview." He says changing the subject.I look at him weird, my mind still on our conversation."Vanessa we're not starting today, we'll have the interview today and tomorrow we'll spend the whole night together.""I wasn't thinking about that." I say avoiding his eyes."Yeah right," he says with a smirk and I blush.We go on with the interview questions for a while till someone calls the landline and he answers it."Yes, I'll be there." He says through the phone before ending it."I have to go, I believe we have answered enough questions today." He stands up to leave walking to me, he just stands in front of me looking at me through his striking gaze.He stepped closer to me, bringing our faces so near to each other that his breath fell across my skin. He kept his eyes focused on mine, his scent surrounding me like a blanket. When I didn't inch back, he moved farther in and placed his forehead against mine.He turned his head slightly, his eyes still on mine, and then he leaned in and kissed me.The kiss was innocent, slow and tender like our mouths were getting to know each other. He felt my lips with purpose, sucked on my bottom lip softly before he released it. Then he felt me again, filling me with his sexy, warm breath.A simple kiss from him was intoxicating, addicting.His kiss was better than sex, and if he was this good at kissing...imagine how good he was at fucking.He pulled back, taking his delicious lips away from mine."I'll see you tomorrow, I'll send a car for you at 8pm."And then he leaves me standing alone in his office, turned on and panting.Related chapters

He had said he'll send a car for me today, I didn't sleep well. I was anxious, I kept thinking about later tonight. Our first night together.At first I thought about having a spa day but then I already had one earlier this week. To keep myself busy and stop thinking about Lucas, I called Ari but she left town with her boyfriend last night, Kathy was still on her honeymoon.It is still just 2pm meaning hours before I had to see him, so I decided to work on my interview notes and give Jessica my boss an update.I was still working when I heard the door to my apartment open, I walk out of my little home office where I was working to see my brother Wes."Okay so giving you my key was a mistake," I say walking to him.He gives me a quick hug and plops down on the couch."I'm avoiding Justin and his girlfriend, she wants to set me up with one of her annoying little fr
The Arrangement CHAPTER 6
His muscular arm was wrapped around my chest, his hand squeezing my tits as he fucked me from behind. We were spooning on our sides, his hips thrusting so he could get his dick as deep as possible. His lips rested against my ear, and I got to listen to his sexy breathing as he fucked me, as he enjoyed me.I bounced my ass back against him, taking that girth with the same enthusiasm he gave it to me.He held his weight on one elbow and leaned over me, supporting the back of my head as he turned my face toward his. Our lips came together, and he kissed me as he continued to pound into me.My hand reached for the back of his neck, and I held on to him as we kissed, as we moved together, our bodies slick with my come.He was the lover I'd been waiting for, someone to waste my time until I had to grow up and make better choices. This was a mistake...but such a good one.His lips hesitated as he came, filled another con
The Arrangement CHAPTER 7
It has been a whole week since Lucas and I had our first night together, he said he would call but he didn't.At first I didn't want to be that girl and call him even when he said he would but we still had an interview together. And my boss Jessica needed this week's update so I had to call him.He didn't pick any or return any of my calls and messages.But then I received a call from his media spokesperson, sending me some interview questions he had answered.That should have made me feel better, but it irritated me more. It meant he saw my calls and messages but he was ignoring me.Was I deceiving myself that the night of amazing sex wasn't that Amazing. Maybe he didn't want me anymore, he had slept with me and he was over me.I was mad at him, mad at me for sleeping with him. To make things worse, Kathy was back from her honeymoon and she wanted us to hang out tomorrow before she left for New York. What if
The Arrangement CHAPTER 8
The next day early in the morning Ari stops by my apartment to pick me up. We're having breakfast with Kathy and then a girls day out before she leaves for New York."Where are you driving to?" I ask Ari when she took the turn to the Alvarado manor."To the manor. Kathy's house." She says looking at me weird."I thought Kathy was staying at Ethan's hotel with Ethan.""Yeah she was but they moved to the manor." Ari explains as she parks.Kathy meets us by the front door, hugging us both in a group hug."You moved back home with Ethan." I ask."Yeah we did, daddy insisted beside we live in New York and its not like we'll be in L.A a lot. So whenever we're in L.A we'll just stay here. And ofcourse its huge enough for daddy, Lucas, Ethan and me, we don't even see much of each other." Kathy explained as we entered the dining room where Rosa had led out a feast and was waiting for us."So how was the hone
The Arrangement CHAPTER 9
"I want you to undress now." He said as he released my hip and I quickly sat up and tugged my nightgown over my head, then slid down my panties. I could feel Lucas's eyes on me. I turned to him, but then the bed shifted and I could see Lucas getting out of bed and start to undress Everything was in shadows but I could make out his impressive hard-on. "Sit on the edge of the bed."I scooted over to his side of the bed and perched on the edge, nervous and curious and excited, and almost bursting with lust. Lucas moved closer until he stood in front of me, his erection on eyelevel with me. He cupped my cheek, his palm warm and slightly rough against my skin. He wanted me to suck him off, I have given a blowjob once before wasn't really for me but I suddenly wanted to have him in my mouth. I didn't need to say I wasn't experienced in that but he suddenly knew like he could read my mind.
The Arrangement CHAPTER 10
I could see Lucas move away from the bed like he'd done last time at his penthouse, and then the light in the bathroom came on and he disappeared inside. He didn't close the door though, I debated on whether to join him but I decided against it as I listened to him taking a shower.Minutes later he was done and he then joined me back in the bedroom with a towel tied around his waist. He looked as gorgeous as ever.I checked the clock on the bedside it was already 3 am. I looked back to Lucas and he was already dressing up."You're not staying?" I ask knowing the answer already."Yes, not that I don't want to but you need to rest." He says explaining.I don't answer him, I stand up and head to the bathroom leaving the door open.He joins me minutes later but already fully dressed, he hands me a key with penthouse written on it in block letters on the key.I c
The Arrangement CHAPTER 11
I had spent the whole weekend at Lucas's penthouse, we spent most of our time together having amazing sex.It was Sunday and we're about to have dinner on the balcony in the penthouse, it has the most amazing view of Hollywood.A chef had come over and made dinner for us and arranged everything, everything looked so beautiful and romantic even though Lucas had made sure I knew nothing is going on between us just sex but a girl could get used to the princess treatment I have been receiving since he gave me a key to the penthouse.I just sat down and we were about to start eating when my cellphone rang, it was my mother calling for the 5th time today. I had already told her I won't be going home for Sunday dinner today because I had something at work but she was still pressuring me.I told Lucas to excuse me and went inside and
The Arrangement CHAPTER 12
We are taking the magazine pictures today at Lucas's home office, Austin the magazine photographer had suggested his office but Lucas being the private person that he is said we should use one of the empty office's in his penthouse so technically still not his home office."Wow I'm finally going to meet him," Austin says as he finishes setting up."Yeah you are," I say with a smile.Lucas shows at that moment."Miss Ford, are you ready for me?" He asks in a professional yet sexy way.I fight the urge to kiss him and hug him because he looked so good in his suit, I mean he always looks so so good."Yeah we're ready," I say. "This is Austin he's the photographer." I explain."It's finally a please to meet you." Austin says reaching out his hand for a handshake."Likewise," Lucas says returning his handshake."So let's start." I say moving back while

The Arrangement EPILOGUE III
I can't believe I agreed to this, I repeat to myself over and over again nervous about talking to my dad. The kids are out back in the pool with Lucas and their only sane grandparent, Lucas's dad. I had already kissed them goodbye I'm going to meet up with my dad in his office. I really really wished I had a more sane family but that's not possible, both my parents are totally insane. When I called my dad and told him I wanted to talk to him he asked to take me lunch but I decided against that and suggested his office Incase he loses his cool when I tell him what I want to talk to him about because that's probably a possibility. The driver drops me off at my dad's office, I take a deep breath before heading upstairs to first see my brother's who both are lawyers like my dad and are working with him. "Clara is Justin in?" I ask my brother's secretary before heading for his office. "Yes he's in." She replies with a smile and I nod before
The Arrangement EPILOGUE II
I'm outside on the balcony, on the phone with my mother for the second time today, which is a record for us I try as much as possible to avoid phone calls with her. She's complaining about my father yet another time, he's cheating again. Not sure he ever even stopped but that's something I can't say to her. I look over the huge glass windows staring at Lucas, my perfect husband. He's is sitting on the little sitting area in our bedroom, working on his laptop while watching CNN. I don't want to be on the phone with my mother I want to be inside with him cuddled up or something, he just got back from Europe last night and we've barely been alone with the kids and everything. "Vanessa are you even listening to me?" My mother asks sensing my concentration is somewhere else. "Ofcourse mom I'm listening but I don't know what to do help." I say with a sigh. "You could talk to your father about this who

"It's official your daughter's favorite person is her grandpa." I said to Lucas joining him in our bedroom holding our 2 year old Alexis. "I had to pry her off his arms before she would come with me." I add. "My dad has always been good with kids." Lucas says collecting Alexis from me. "Yeah he's amazing, he's so good Jamie Louis and Alexis." I say smiling. Jamie Louis is Alexis' cousin, Kathy's son. "You should go put her to sleep, I'm going to take a shower." I say as I enter the bathroom. The past 3 years of our lives has went by blissfully, we got married 1 year after Lucas proposed ofcourse I had to work really hard to fix our relationship but we made it work. Months into our marriage we found out I was pregnant with Alexis, our perfect little angel. Lucas was ecstatic a

I tried to get a hold of Lucas but he wouldn't see me or even talk to me. I went to his office but every time they said he wasn't in, I went to the manor but Rosa wouldn't even let me in.I called him over and over but he wouldn't answer or call me back.I even asked Kathy for help but she wouldn't do anything. She said she's staying out of it, Lucas will see me if he's ready.It has been more than a week and still nothing from him so I decided to call his best friend Eric to ask for help.Eric wouldn't even talk to me, until I showed up at his office and begged him.Then he agreed, he lured Lucas to his house and gave me the address.When I showed up, Eric took me to Lucas who was watching a basketball game in the living room then he left us alone."Why are you here?" Lucas asks when he sees me."I had to see you but you wouldn't see me." I say."
The Arrangement CHAPTER 33
I avoided Lucas all week, I wasn't ready to see him or talk him. But Ari explained that I should atleast hear what he has to say, so I texted him to come over so we can talk."Vanessa, I'm so sorry." Lucas says joining me in my living room, I don't say anything I lead him to the couch sitting at the opposite end of him."How long have you known?" I ask him."The day we got back from our trip, Elaine was waiting for me at home." Lucas says running his hands through his hair."That's when I found out." He adds."You said you always use protection, was that a lie?" I ask."No Vanessa, I always use protection it must have been an accident or something with the condom." Lucas says running his fingers through his hair again."I know when we got together you and her were on a break, but did you officially break up with her?" I ask dying to know."Yes I did, af

Lucas's driver was waiting for us and now we're on our to my apartment.Lucas is dropping me off first before going home, he had said he had a meeting.I was snuggling in his chest in the back sit as the driver quietly drove us."Have you ever been in love?" I ask Lucas looking up to his face. I have been wanting to know since we confessed our feelings to each other."No." Lucas says looking at me."But there have been other women before me?" I ask again."Yes, there have been other women but no one compared to how I feel about you." He says kissing the top of my head gently."What about you?" He asks me. "Ever been in love?" He adds."I thought so, when I was a teenager." I say."But now that I think about it, it wasn't love. It was infatuation." I add explaining."Are
The Arrangement CHAPTER 31
We spent our days in bed making love then talking our favorite things. I opened myself to him telling about my childhood and all the things I hated about being a Ford.And for the first time last night he opened himself to me telling me about his mother, what he remembered about her and how lost he felt when he lost her.We even talked about the baby we lost, how much it hurt then and how much it still hurt to remember.Today is our last day here we had just finished dinner and we were back at our room. Lucas was sitting on the balcony watching out the beautiful view.I walked to him suddenly aware that I needed him to know my feelings for him. I needed to tell him how much I love him."I want to tell you something." I said to Lucas."Okay." He said with a smile closing the distance between us."Kiss me first," I said.Lucas bent down gently brushing his lips against mine before pulling away."I love you Lucas." I say ag
The Arrangement CHAPTER 30
Okay that was a close call, I took a few deep breaths before going back downstairs with Lucas.We join my parents and Justin in the dining room. We were about to sit down when my other brother Wesley joins us."Wes!" I say as he gives me a quick hug."I thought you weren't coming?" I ask."Yeah I wasn't but Justin said your boyfriend was coming so I canceled all my plans." Wesley said with a smile. I roll my eyes at him before introducing him to Lucas.The chef serves us all a plate and we start eating with my dad and Lucas back to talking about the stock market."So Vanessa when are you taking your vacation for this year?" My mother asks."I was thinking we should take a family trip this year." She adds."Uhnmm I'm kind of taking my vacation days next week." I say lying. There's nothing worse than a family vacation with my family, it always ends in arguments and honestly I can't deal with any of that at this point in my life.

I couldn't make it to lunch with my aunt and mom so I stayed home with Kathy.Lucas had some work to do so he was out all day but Kathy asked me to stay, we had a full spa day at home and okay I was definitely getting used to the Alvarado manor it is like staying in a palace.Kathy had someone come over to get our nails done and after that we spent the whole day eating junk food.Pregnancy has made Kathy crave alot of junk food and she was making me eat with her, and you obviously can't say no to a pregnant woman.We were watching keeping up with the Kardashians when Ethan, Kathy's husband got home."Hey baby," he said giving his wife a kiss."Hey Vanessa," he said noticing me."Hey" I said with a smile checking the time to see it was already 10pm."Wow it's late," I say getting up.
