Calvin sat on his chair working on something on his laptop when he heard his phone ring. It was one of his receptionist. He answered.
"Speak." receptionist heard his cold voice from the other side of the phone
"Miss Allison Brown is here to see you, we told her we can't let her in without an appointm..."
"Let her in." he commanded.
"Yes Sir". She replied timidly and he hung up almost immediately.
Calvin closed his laptop and relaxed lazily on his chair with a satisfied smirk dancing on his lips. He has been thinking of this moment since forever. He hope she will come begging him.
A moment later, he heard a knock on the door
"Come in". he said coldly.
The receptionist entered with Allison behind her.
"Leave". he said to the receptionist and she left immediately.
Allison was still standing unmoving and staring at him.
"Are you going to keep standing there? or am I just so irresistible that you can't help but stare?" he teased.
She flinched, it seemed to him like she was spacing out. She lowered her gaze and walked slowly towards him.
"Sit". he ordered her.
She sat on the chair facing him.
"I have agreed to do whatsoever it is that you want me to do. I have to save my sister". She was determined to do anything. Without Kylie, her life made no sense
"I want you to live with me"
"For how long?"
"Two months. Don't even think of negotiating" he told her coldly
"I wasn't going to, I will agree to anything as far as you will give me the money, and I will move to your house immediately I pay for her hospital bill" she said determined. "I hope I will be allowed to visit my sister and my bar".
"Your movement will not be restricted but you must be there when I need you..." he stood up from his seat and walked up to her to stand just in front of her. He lifted his hand to caress her cheek, then he moved his hand slowly down to her chin, then her neck and he stopped just before he touched her breasts. He looked at her face like he was about to devour her, he leaned in till their faces were almost touching and he said with a deep, yet low and seductive voice ".... and I will be needing you mostly at night"
Beads of sweat gathered in her forehead
"You have two days miss Brown". he said, pulling away from her and going back to his seat
"It's Allison"
"It doesn't matter. I can call you anything I feel like. I'm your owner now. Always remember that."
"You have not given me the money so I am still my own person for now."
He chuckled.
"You are a smart one baby girl."
He waited for her to reply but to his disappointment, she didn't. He was surprised that he enjoyed bantering with her. He then brought out an already prepared cheque and gave it to her.
"Here is a cheque of three hundred thousand dollars."
She gaped at the cheque with surprise flashing in her face.
"When I told you I will give you double the money, did you think I was joking?" he asked with one brow raised.
"Um...no...yes...Thank you."
Even though, she isn't proud of getting money this way, she still felt a bit happy. Now she has more than enough money to take care of her sister's hospital bill, and she wouldn't have to touch her college tuition. Instead she has extra.
"You don't need to thank me, you will pay for it remember."
Does he need to remind her? Can't he just afford her this moment of celebration. She laughed at herself internally. She is going to be somebody's whore and she is celebrating.
"I know." She replied dryly
"Good."
"Can I ask a question?" She asked.
He looked at her for a moment as if contemplating if he should let her ask or not. Then he decided to hear what she has to say.
"What exactly... do you need... me for?" She asked with a low voice and a lowered gaze. She already knows but she still wanted to hear him say it.
"From the look in your face, I can tell you already know." he said.
She felt her throat go dry, her eyes sting,
the ache in her chest was suffocating. She knows what he wants from her but she isn't prepared. Who would be prepared for this?
"Do you still want to know?"
She heard his cold voice again and she nodded. Why is she nodding? What does she expect to hear? She knows that the man in front of her is merciless, so why is she expecting something else? She hated this. She knows that she is going to get disappointed again.
She blinked her eyes to hold back her tears.
He cupped her face gently and she flinched. She wanted to slap his hand away but she was scared he will change his mind. Or worse, do something stupid to her right there at that moment in his office. She knows that he will eventually do it to her but she wasn't prepared at that very moment.
He smirked. Then he leaned into her such that his mouth was almost touching her ear. She flinched. She could feel his hot breathe fanning her face and as much as she doesn't want to admit it, he does smell nice. She guessed that he will have a lot of women swooning around him .
"I want to do things to you. Things only a man can do to a woman." he breathed on her neck. "I want to touch you in places that will make your toes curl. I want to have your body pinned under me in my bed. I want to pleasure you until the only thing you can think of is my name. I want to rake my hands all over your naked body and have you beg me for more. I want to hear you chant my name like a spell Allison. That is what I want to do to you."
He finally pulled away and looked at her face. He smiled at her flushed and dumbstruck expression. Her lips parted like she is going to say something but no word left her lips. She opened her mouth again and closed it.
"Breath." he said to her
"Wh...you ... how...I". She closed her mouth again not knowing what to say.
"Leave." he suddenly said, his smug expression turning frosty.
She took the cheque and got up, she felt her legs grow weak and the way he was looking at her wasn't helping at all. She managed to walk out of the office with her wobbly legs. when she came out, she released the breath that she didn't know she was holding. His words keep repeating in her head. She don't know if she should be happy or sad. She decided to look on the bright side, she got the money, her sister is saved, it's just two months, everything will be okay. With that in mind, she hurried to the hospital.
Allison got to the hospital with renewed vigour. She deposited the payment and asked the doctors to commence treatment. For once, she is going to sleep well at night. She was still scared but she was hopeful.Allison entered Kylie's ward without the usual moodiness on her face. She even seemed brighter."Hey Kylie. I finally got the money for your treatment. I told you I would" She smiled a little."Just be strong for me okay and wake up soon" Allison sat down and she finally felt all her exhaustion telling on her. In a few minutes, she drifted to sleep.Allison woke up in her bedroom the next morning, got ready and decided to meet with her friend. She had sent Delia a text the previous night that they should meet up.Delia has been her friend since high school, they went to the same college and went through a lot together. She and Delia tell each other everything but she don't know how to tell her about this because Delia has always been protective of her.Inside a small restaurant,
Allison has been standing in front of Calvin's mansion since the last ten minutes hesitating to ring the doorbell. She doesn't know what to expect. She thought she had gathered enough courage but it seems it's going to be harder than she thinks. She had managed to get through the gate with the help of the securities there. They let her in because they were expecting her.After a few more minutes, she managed to muster a little courage and rang the bell. 'Here goes nothing' she said in her head.The door was opened almost immediately by a woman who looked like she was in her mid forties."You must be miss Allison Brown, I'm Ellie, the boss asked me to attend to you. It's a pleasure meeting you". She said with a smile."It's a pleasure meeting you too Ellie.""Come in." The woman gestured to her to enter inside with her hand.Allison tried to carry her bags with her but was stopped."ow! you don't have to do that, the maids will do it for you"."O.. okay" She awkwardly dropped the bag
Allison stood unmoving. Her legs felt heavy all of a sudden, the way he was looking at her sent shivers running down her spine. Was she scared? She thinks so. "Allison". She heard him call again. "I said come here." he called firmly and in a threatening tone. She managed to move her feet forward reluctantly. She stopped a few centimeters from his bed."Move closer Allison." He commanded and she took a step forward."Closer". She took another stepCalvin reluctantly got from his bed and walked to stand right before her."You are testing my patience Allison." The look on his face made her think that he wasn't in a good mood. Well it shouldn't be surprising. He is a devil after all.He walked towards her and yanked her arm violently. She flinched from the pain of the tight grip but he didn't loosen his hold."Why are you daring me?" he asked menacingly. "Or do you want to get me angry?"So he wasn't angry.Allison remained quiet."Don't keep me quiet Allison."She looked up at him. What
Allison sat on her bed deeply lost in thought. She thought of the world and how to was so cruel. If only she wasn't poor, if only Kylie didn't have leukemia at all, she wouldn't be here. She wouldn't be reduced to this level.His words kept echoing in her head. 'I own you.' Fuck! Who the hell does he think he is? Does he actually enjoy seeing people in pain? He didn't sleep with her like she had expected, but he humiliated her. Allison has always had high self esteem, she respect herself thereby earning respect from others. She has always worked her to fend for herself and her sister without depending on any man. She even graduated college without financial assistance from anybody. She even had money saved up for Kylie to go to college. This is the first time she had someone assist her financially and she had to pay with her dignity. It hurts her so much but she she didn't have much choice. It will all be worth it when she sees Kylie standing on her feet and laughing again. She rea
Calvin had returned early from work that day. It was one of the rare days he didn't have a lot of work to do so he finished on time and was already home at five o'clock. Ellie had informed him that Allison left the house in the morning to visit her sister and her bar. He had told her to inform him when she gets back. A short while later, he heard a knock on his door."Come in"Ellie entered the room"She is back sir"."Call her in"."She said she wants to bath and eat first". She informed him panicking a little. She had earlier told Allison to answer him first but she refused."Oh really! Let her take her time. Call her in when she's done. You may leave". Ellie nodded and left the room.Calvin sat there for almost one hour before he heard a knock on his door. He wondered what took her so long."Come in".Allison entered and walked closer. She stood right before his bed. It's like she became a little less fearful. Allis
It has been three days and Allison hasn't heard anything from Calvin. He would go to work very early in the morning and come back very late, he even came back past midnight the previous night and she was already asleep.Is he avoiding her? Is he finally taking pity on her after seeing her cry? No! the last thing she needed is to be pitied by that man. Or maybe he isn't showing any pity, he just has a lot to do at work. CEOs can be really busy at times. Maybe something is going on in his company that needed him to be there. Anyway she didn't care, She was trying her best to make use of the golden opportunity while hoping that anything taking his time never ceases. Who knows, the dragon lord could get bored and come at her again.She has been going out since the past three days. She would visit her sister in the morning, giving her flowers and encouraging her to wake up soon then she will spend the rest of the day at the bar with Kenny. It was as if her days had gone back to normal. It
Calvin was inside his car just outside of his mansion gate when he saw two people emerging from a car. He had asked his driver to turn off the car light so his car won't be noticed. He watched as Allison and a man alighted from the vehicle in front of him. He was telling her something and she was laughing heartily. He has never seen her laugh like that before. Who was that man? They would have noticed when he arrived there if there weren't too engrossed in whatever they are discussing. Was she seeing another man? Did he just hug her? Why isn't she protesting? He felt rage brew inside of him. He felt like breaking the mans hands which were around her. He waited patiently and watched him leave. She had to wait for him to leave too and she was even waving at him. Damn it! He watched as the car disappeared out of sight and he saw Allison's little figure entering his compound. She seemed genuinely happy with that man. Why was he so angry? he couldn't tell. Allison had eaten and had alr
It was a Sunday afternoon, Calvin sat on a couch in his living room on the third floor, there was nothing for him to do and he felt bored. He would have called Allison but didn't want to hear her plead for that man. He had been so angry the previous night that he didn't sleep well. Why does she care about him so much? and why is he so angry about it? he just told himself that it would be disrespect if she goes out with another man while she is with him.Since he didn't have anything to do, he decided to do something that he rarely does; watch TV.Calvin was still sitting there like a log looking at the TV, when the least person he expected to see emerged through the door without knocking surprising him."What the fuck are you doing here Leo?" Calvin asked obviously pissed."I'm good, thanks for asking." Leo answered sarcastically."Get the fuck out of here Leo.""Chill. You are scaring me"Leo went on and sat on the couch beside him. He enjoys getting the grumpy guy annoyed."Do you h
Calvin stared at Jerry, trying his best to appear friendly. He kept reminding himself that his grandmother was there. Allison didn't look alright, and he could already guess Jerry had something to do with it. Even though his gaze at Jerry wasn't hostile, there was clear warning in his eyes. He quickly led Allison away. "Oh I didn't tell you how much my grandsons are in love with their wives. You need to see Calvin when the Allison is experiencing the slightest discomfort. Love is indeed a beautiful thing." Grandma said to the uncomfortable Jerry. Jerry smiled and nodded his head. "It hasn't been up to a month since Delia and Leo got married. I wish we had met you earlier, you would have attended the wedding. It was beautiful." "We really would have wanted you there." Delia said, and grandma beamed, failing to see the sarcasm. "Jerry the whole family loves you already. It's really going to be a wonderful week." Grandma exclaimed. A week? A whole week of staying together with them?
Four days later, the members of the Bruce family began to arrive the mansion. Aunt Margaret and her new boyfriend were the first to come.All the while, Jerry had been dying in nervousness. Grandma had begged him to stay in the mansion with her, and he was forced to oblige. During their stay, he had learnt more about the family than he knew.He had asked to know what happened between Calvin and their father. The woman was reluctant to tell him at first, but when she became very comfortable with him, it slipped. He was beyond shocked and disappointed to find out that his father had killed Calvin's mother. He felt so betrayed and angry, but one couldn't release their anger on the dead.Aunt Margaret introduced her boyfriend to Jerry. She also told him that she has a son and a daughter, and that they would also be coming.They chatted, whiling away time before Naomi and Sasha came. Both girls slumped on one of the living room's couches. By then, grandma had gone to her room to have her n
Calvin brought a doctor to the house to check if Allison is pregnant as he promised her the previous day. The both of them were on their toes the whole time as the doctor took her blood. After a while, he asked them to leave so as to run some tests on the blood.Calvin took his wife to the living room. They sat down on the couch in silence, doing nothing in particular. Just waiting impatiently. Time seemed to move slowly, and the couple didn't have the zeal to do any other thing.Finally, the doctor came out, and they didn't know when they rose to their feet."Am I...?" Allison began anxiously."Congratulations Mr and Mrs Bruce." The doctor said with a smile, then he turned to Allison. "You are three weeks gone."Allison turned to Calvin, and she saw that his hands were already wide open, inviting her for an embrace. She hugged him tightly, her hands went around his neck, holding him with a firm grip. She suddenly began to laugh, but not long after, her laughter turned into sobs. "It
Calvin instantly regretted saying that. What if that was not the case? He would just raise her hope only to leave her disappointed in the end. But he just couldn't help himself, as the thought of her getting pregnant excited him.Allison's lips parted and closed, before parting again. "We... we should see a doctor." She suggested."I was only guessing. I am not certain." Calvin said, not wanting her to get too hopeful."But it could be true. I have been feeling a little sick for a while now. Maybe I am really pregnant Calvin. We should check." Now she looked so anxious to know. "I had previously thought about that, but I always pushed it away, not wanting to get my hopes high. But now that you noticed and mentioned it, I want to check. It is better I just know, even if I get a negative answer."Calvin walked up to her and kissed her forehead, letting his lips linger there for a few seconds. "We will be seeing a doctor tomorrow.""Thank you baby.""Anything for you princess." He smile
Delia's gown hugged her body from her breasts to her waist, before it flowed freely downwards. She had wanted it to be tight and take her whole figure, but Charlotte discouraged her as she was pregnant, and grandma made sure to give her her own set of instructions. Delia wondered if they were exaggerating as she was only a few weeks pregnant. She had to remind them from time to time that she wasn't a piece of glass.The front of the dress was opened in a heart shaped pattern, and two royal blue straps attached to it was tied at the back, around her neck, as the dress was completely handless, leaving her back open. The upper part of the dress, close to her breasts to her back was blue, embedded with white designs. While the free end was also blue. The gown flowed voluptuously behind her, and she wondered if she would be able to walk freely.She stared at herself in the mirror, heart full with so much happiness, and a sense of fulfillment. She knew that she was not making a mistake by
Calvin woke up one morning. He searched the bed for Allison as he usually does, but she wasn't there. He got up to go close the open curtains as the light rays were shining brightly in the room, and his eyes were yet to adjust to it. From the way everywhere looked bright, he knew he had woken up very late. He and Allison had a very wild night last night. He still expected her to be in bed, knowing he tired her out.He quickly went to search for her, worried that he might have tired her out too much. Their bathroom was the first place he searched, but he didn't find her there.Coming out of the room, he met Ellie. "Good morning Ellie. Do you know where Ally is?""She's in the kitchen. She said she wanted to make you breakfast." Ellie answered with a shrug, and Calvin's feet took him to the kitchen wasting another second.He smiled when he saw her from the door. She was singing a song and also dancing to it. Somehow, she looked more radiant."What are you doing standing there?" Alliso
It had only been two days since Calvin, Allison and Naomi returned home from the ancestral home when they had an unexpected visitor, Jerry. Calvin had ordered that he shouldn't be let in, as he did not want Allison to see him and remember her traumatizing experience with him. Jerry stayed for a long while, causing a fuss at the gates. But after a while, he left.Calvin was thankful that he left, only that he did not expect him to come the next day. Just like the previous day he ordered that he shouldn't be let in, but Jerry stayed at the gates disturbing the peace of his home, accusing him of killing his parents.After a while, Calvin finally decided to come down to let him in. But only because Allison wasn't home, as she had began to spend all her time with Delia since she heard she was pregnant. Naomi wasn't home as well.Jerry rushed towards Calvin the moment he came down, ready to throw a punch or two at him, but he was quickly held by one of Calvin's men."I presume you came here
Allison stared at Calvin, completely taken aback by the information. Did he say that Jerry was his half-brother? "H... How?" "I am as surprised as you are princess. I think he is the older brother, and he is bitter, as he is the one supposed to get the company." Calvin explained, making Allison crease her brows in worry. "This is not good. He is a threat to you." Calvin shook his head. "He is an illegitimate son, and I guess no one in the family knows about him. Not even grandma." "He can easily prove that he is your father's son." He chuckled. "Even if he does that princess, the company will still belong to me. It is not written anywhere that it belongs to the first born. I am the rightful owner legitimately, plus everyone in the family apart from my late father..." he paused shortly, as if the word didn't sound right on his tongue. "... and his wife supports me. Jerry or whatsoever he is called have no claim." He shrugged. Allison lay her head on his chest, as she made hersel
Naomi lowered her head as she couldn't bear to look Calvin in the eyes. Her body shivered violently, and her teeth chattered against each other. The temperature around her suddenly felt so chill, and her heart hammered in her chest like it was going to pull out.Everything happened just so fast. When she saw her father pointing a gun at Calvin, and she realized that he was going to shoot him, she quickly picked up the gun on the floor and shot him instead. It was an instinctual reaction."Na... Naomi?"She heard Calvin call her. The shock in his voice was evident, even though his tone was low. Was he disappointed?Calvin walked up to his shivering sister, and wrapped her in a tight hug."Why? Oh God! why did you do that?"He knew that she was going to live with the guilt forever. She was the last person he expected to do that. She had always been so soft-hearted, and she did care about their father. "I... I... am... I..." She stuttered, unable to make a coherent statement. She hersel
