The lies of a woman
Ashley’s POV
Of course I was not pregnant. I had made some stupid decisions in my life, but I was not that stupid. I only lied to Jake out of boredom, to see what he would say. I needed an excuse to see him and possibly seduce him. Since I had slept with almost everyone in my circle, I needed fresh meat.
The door opened and Richard Eyck walked in. He was a 60 year old real estate billionaire I had been in and off and on relationship with for some time. What I liked most about him was that he never cared how much of his money I spent, as long as I gave him what he wanted. The best thing was that he always finished so fast.
“Hey baby,” he said.Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
I faked a smile. In the past, age had never really mattered to me but after being with young and energetic Jake Rylland, older men did not seem fun anymore. I wanted someone like Jake. I wanted Jake.
There were a lot of men who looked like Jake, and had the kind of money he did. Most of them were total jerks. But Jake was different. Sure, he could be a jerk sometimes. But, I could tell that he was not a bad person. He was also fairly balanced in the head. During the time at Illistra, I never saw him smoke or even take drugs. He just drunk alcohol, and that was all. The man had self-control and there were few men of his age like that.
I had never thought I could be so obsessed with a person but Jake was driving me crazy. I thought of him all the time. It was like I was a teenager all over again. After screwing up his secret relationship with that girl, I knew it was going to be hard to get on his good side but I was not about to stop trying.
Richard climbed on bed and started touching me. I locked my phone and placed it under the pillow before pulling out the condoms. Richard started sucking my breasts. I stared at the ceiling, not feeling anything. I couldn’t wait for it to be over so I could leave his luxurious house with a fat wallet.
I made some movements and pretended to moan as his lips moved down my belly, going lower. Even as he licked me up, I pretended it was the hottest thing that had ever happened to me. I felt aroused enough for him to enter. He got off the bed and started removing his shirt while I faked a smile.
When he got back to bed, I held up the condom. He shook his head. I brought the condom to my mouth and tore the wrapper.
“Should I help you put it on?” I asked.
Richard shook his head. “I don’t want it anymore.”
He positioned himself at my entrance but I brought my legs together holding them tight. “I’m not on birth control right now.”
“I know, but I want a child with you Ashley. You’re very beautiful and I know our baby will inherit that. It’s been years and I’ve invested a lot in you. I’m always there for you. Why don’t you do this one thing for me?”
“Excuse me,” I said, pushing him aside and getting up. “I’m not ready for a child.”
“But I want you to have my child. When we first met, you said you’d give me a child at some point if I wanted. Now is the time.”
“That was four years ago.” I had made the promise to him just to get his money. In reality, I had no interest in having his baby. “I’m still not yet ready for a child.”
He laughed. “But I want one. Can you repay all the money I’ve spent on you? You can’t even pay me a quarter of it. I need that baby. You promised me something and was always there for you because I knew I would get it. But, nothing has happened. Come here.”
I laughed. “You’re not serious, old man. What? Do you think you can force me to have unprotected sex with you? I work out every day and I know damn well that I’m stronger than you.”
The door opened and Mr. Eyck’s trusted bodyguard walked in. he was a huge man with bulging muscles and strong legs built like tree trunks.
“What’s going on here?” I asked.
“I’m tired of condoms,” Richard said. “I spend too much on you to keep having bad sex. I know that it won’t guarantee having a child because you may go and take emergency pills immediately. Since you have refused to give me what I want, let me have what I have been craving for all this time. I’m tired of that rubber. I want to feel you without any barrier.”
I frowned. “What has gotten into you, Richard? You’ve always been a sweet man.”
“No, I have been foolish. I heard about your little tryst with Jake Rylland. I won’t let you make me look like a fool. We had a deal, Ashley. That you would be with me in public, and whoever you wanted in private. You broke the rules.”
“Well, just let me go and find someone else to spend all your money on. I don’t care.”
He grinned. “You will spending this entire week in this house. Good thing you know that this is a vacation house and it is surrounded by mostly empty cabins and houses. I can’t wait to have the time of my life with you.”
No, no, no. this couldn’t be happening.
“I didn’t carry any birth control.”
Richard smirked. “Good. You might actually end up pregnant. I guess I’m not a stupid old man anymore, am I?”
“You can’t do this to me. This is a crime.”
“I have committed many crimes and gotten away with them. Bring it on.”
“Ahhhh,” I screamed.
Richard and his bodyguard laughed.
“I forgot to tell you. Every room in this house is sound proofed. Welcome home, my love. You know if we have a child, she’ll enjoy staying in this house. I will take very good care of you and her.”
“You’re a mad man.”
“All thanks to you. You’ve driven me mad.” He said, advancing towards me. I stood rooted to the ground, feeling hopeless. What I had I gotten myself into?
