View More“Sudah empat bulan. Kenapa kamu masih belum hamil, Rachel?"
Wanita cantik yang baru saja melayani suaminya itu seketika terdiam dengan wajah memerah. Padahal mereka baru saja melakukan hubungan suami istri. Tetapi, bukannya bersikap mesra, sang suami malah menanyakan hal yang sangat sensitif bagi seorang wanita.
"Kamu nggak salah bertanya seperti itu?" Rachel terdengar kesal. Lebih tepatnya tersinggung. "Baru empat bulan, Lex. Banyak orang yang sudah menikah selama bertahun-tahun, tetpi belum diberi momongan. Empat bulan!"
Bagaimana tidak kesal? Baru saja ia selesai melayani kebutuhan batin suaminya--Rachel saja masih merasakan sakit di sekujur tubuhnya lantaran Alex, suaminya, tadi sempat memperlakukannya dengan kasar, seakan-akan Alex hanya mengejar kepuasannya semata dan hal itu tidak seperti biasanya.
Sebelumnya Rachel masih bertanya-tanya apa yang salah dengan suaminya dan berpikir bahwa suaminya tersebut mendapatkan tekanan dari pekerjaan atau sejenisnya, sehngga Alex menuntut Rachel sebagai pelampiasannya. Namun, usai mendengar pertanyaan tersebut, Rachel berpendapat bahwa suaminya memang sudah melewati batas.
"Aku hanya--"
"Caramu memperlakukanku salah," potong Rachel penuh emosi. Tampaknya pertanyaan Alex lebih melukainya daripada perlakuan pria itu tadi. "Memangnya kamu saja yang ingin punya anak? Aku juga!"
Rachel memekik kesal, ia menautkan jari jemarinya menahan emosi yang saat ini terasa menyesakkan dadanya. Ia merasa sangat sakit hati. Bagaimana pun ia adalah istri, bukan mesin pencetak anak. Atau, apakah Alex menikahinya hanya untuk mendapatkan keturunan?
Alex tidak mengatakan apa pun. Sepasang matanya menyorot dingin saat membalas tatapan mata Rachel yang penuh emosi.
Rachel melanjutkan, “Aku sakit, Lex! Bukan cuma tubuhku yang sakit setelah kamu pakai layaknya boneka pemuas nafsu! Dan bukannya permintaan maaf malah kamu menuduh aku mandul. Apa kamu sadar dengan apa yang baru saja kamu katakan?!”
Rachel mengenal Alex sebagai sosok lelaki yang begitu lembut dan hangat penuh perhatian kepadanya. Padahal, lelaki itu terkenal sangat angkuh juga arogan jika berhadapan dengan orang lain. Itulah sebabnya Rachel merasa jika Alex sangat menyanjungnya dan wanita mana yang tidak akan bertekuk lutut jika diperlakukan istimewa? Demikian juga dengan Rachel. Pada akhirnya ia pun menyerah dan menerima lamaran Alex.
Akan tetapi ternyata sikap Alex kepadanya tidak seperti itu setiap saat. Terkadang, suaminya tersebut akan bersikap perhatian dan penuh cinta, tetapi terkadang sikapnya akan sangat dingin seperti hari ini.
Empat bulan menjadi istri Alex, Rachel masih belum bisa memahami pria itu sepenuhnya.
Alex menghela napas panjang dan mengembuskannya perlahan sebelum berkata, “Kita ini sudah melakukannya terlalu sering, selama kita menikah." Suara pria itu dalam dan penuh penekanan. Meskipun begitu, nada bicaranya terdengar lebih lembut. "Aku ... ingin segera menimang buah cinta kita."
Jantung Rachel seolah hendak melompat keluar dari tempatnya. Perlahan, Rachel menyandarkan tubuhnya ke ranjang dengan posisi setengah duduk sambil menutupi tubuhnya dengan selimut.
“Alex, apakah kita harus terburu-buru seperti ini?” tanya Rachel dengan lembut.
Rahang Alex tampak mengeras.
“Rachel. Ini bukan hanya masalah keturunan, tetapi masalah pewaris untuk perusahaan dan penerus nama keluargaku," sahut Alex kemudian. "Papi sudah berulang kali menanyakan apakah kamu sudah hamil atau belum. Dan kamu tahu bagaimana kerasnya Papi itu."
Rachel terdiam. Ada rasa sakit yang tertoreh di dasar hatinya. Untuk pertama kalinya selama pernikahan, Alex berkata dengan dingin dan begitu menusuk. Apa ia dinikahi hanya untuk menjadi mesin pencetak anak semata?
Rachel pun menundukkan kepalanya, menahan air mata yang sudah menggenang agar tidak jatuh. Kemarahannya tadi menguap entah ke mana, berganti menjadi kesedihan.
Akhirnya, usai melihat sang istri yang menahan air mata, Alex pun kembali menghela napas panjang dan mengembuskannya perlahan.
“Maafkan aku, Sayang." Kali ini nada bicara Alex kembali melembut. "Tapi, aku harap kamu bisa mengerti. Sebelumnya juga kita pernah membicarakan soal anak ini dan kamu setuju untuk memiliki anak secepatnya. Apakah kamu berubah pikiran?"
Mendengar suara Alex yang kembali menghangat Rachel pun mengangkat wajahnya dan menggeleng.
“Kita pasti akan memilikinya, Lex," ujar Rachel kemudian dengan suaranya yang lirih. "Saat aku memeriksakan kesehatan ke rumah sakit, dokter mengatakan jika aku tidak bermasalah."
Rachel memelankan suaranya. Saat ini ia merasa lebih baik sedikit mengalah saja.
Bukan hanya Alex yang menginginkan kehadiran makhluk mungil di rahimnya. Ia juga sangat menginginkan hal itu. Sebagai seorang wanita, adalah satu kebanggaan jika bisa mengandung dan memberikan anak kepada suaminya, bukan? Apalagi pria ini adalah sosok yang paling Rachel cintai, orang yang pernah menjanjikan kebahagiaan dan cinta pada Rachel sebelumnya.
"... Rachel, kamu tahu mimpiku, kan?"
Ucapan Alex kembali membuat Rachel memfokuskan ingatannya pada masa lalu, ketika Alex melamarnya. Saat itu, pria itu berkata bahwa ia jatuh cinta pada pesona keibuan yang Rachel miliki. Detik itu, Alex mengatakan pada Rachel mimpinya--mimpi yang baru saja Rachel ingat kembali, bahwa ia telah berjanji untuk membantu Alex mewujudkan mimpi tersebut.
"Aku ingin membangun keluarga bahagia bersamamu, Rachel."
Usai kalimat itu terngiang kembali di kepalanya, Rachel berkata, “Alex, aku mencintaimu."
Alex tersenyum--sesuatu yang akhirnya Rachel syukuri karena ia merindukan senyuman suaminya tersebut. Pria itu merengkuh tubuh istrinya ke dalam sebuah pelukan hangat, sebisa mungkin membuat Rachel merasa nyaman dan aman bersamanya.
“Kalau begitu," bisik Alex. "Seorang anak. Kamu bisa mewujudkannya, kan?"
Xavier’s POV“Well, I guess it's time for you to go have fun again,” Ava said quietly, her body language turning rigid as she deliberately made room for the two gorgeous newcomers to sit down.I could hear the raw, unmistakable pain vibrating in her voice as she spoke. It tore at me. I desperately wanted to pull her straight into my arms, hold her tight against my chest, and comfort her until the hurt went away. I already felt a crushing weight of guilt for the first set of girls on the roof; how could I possibly allow myself to hurt her like that a second time? Doing that twice in just a few hours would completely destroy whatever trust we had left.“No need, you can keep them. I've had enough for one night,” I stated firmly, rejecting the offering immediately.I shot a pointed look at my friend, knowing he would get the hint and back off without trying to force them onto me.“What a shame,” my friend laughed into the microphone, shaking his head. “I saved the best for last! Come to
Ava’s POV“Fuck…”The violent sound of glass shattering echoed through the rooftop air as Xavier abruptly stood up and stormed away to leave.The host quickly cleared his throat, trying to smooth over the tension for the crowd. “I guess our Alpha is just a little tipsy tonight! Back to the game, let's bring the box back in to let our lucky winners know the rest of their prize.”After the two lucky winners drew their slips from the box, they handed them over to the waiter, and the choices were read aloud. The terms were absolute: I had to do his bidding. Whatever my companion for the night wanted, I was bound by the game to obey him.We moved to a seating area, and I just sat beside him, forcing myself to remain completely still as I let him touch me as he pleased. Thankfully, the man wasn't entirely without self-control; he noticed my clear discomfort and didn't go completely overboard.Even so, he was eager to claim his prize. He wrapped a heavy arm tightly around my waist, leading m
Third POVNumber 6 wanted some action too and couldn't hate watching number 2 enjoy the Alpha alone, adding to the fact that she was intensely jealous of number 2's huge boobs. She leaned in and bit them so hard that number 2 winced in sharp pain, though she quickly leaned into the sensation as number 6 squeezed them fiercely.Xavier, completely driven by his primal wolf, inserted his huge cock into number 2's cunt. He started to fuck her hard and fast, his strokes incredibly strong and unyielding. His length went so deep into her pussy, thrusting into her like an absolute pro. His cock buried itself completely inside her tight walls as he squeezed her breast with a bruising grip.The heavy, wet sound of his balls hitting against her thighs could be heard clearly across the rooftop deck. He was banging her pussy so incredibly hard that nothing else in the world seemed to matter.Ava stood up, her chest heaving, and left the crowd. She simply couldn't bear to watch the man she loved te
Ava’s POVThe lady beside me giggled as she began bouncing on the man, riding his cock without a shred of restraint. The rooftop was alive with the sounds of pleasure, and my own hand was already at the edge of my bikini bottom. I desperately wanted a release; my body was humming with a need that only Xavier could satisfy. Just as I was finally inserting my fingers into my pussy, I felt a burning gaze on me.I turned to see Xavier staring at me from across the space. Then, he slowly lowered his head, and I followed his gaze down to his own erect cock. I swallowed hard as I watched him grab it and give it a firm, gentle squeeze while looking me dead in the eye. I wished more than anything that I could just storm over there and fuck him right in front of everyone.Just as the thought crossed my mind, the next game started. Since number 3 was still busy with her "prize," she wasn't included in this round. This time, it was a raffle. The winner—a burly wolf I didn't recognize—picked numbe
AVA'S POV“This place is quite comfortable. You’ll stay here. Xavier will watch over you,” he said, pulling me close one last time in a hug.Dad’s voice was steady, but mine was not.I clung to his shirt like a child. “You’re leaving already?”“I have to,” he whispered against my hair. “I have a lo
AVA’S POV“You better not breathe a word about this to anyone.” he spoke through gritted teeth as he arranged his clothes.“I won't.” As I spoke I leaned in closer to him but he pushed me aside as he stood up from the chair.“There won't be a next time.”He left my room after speaking, I splurged o
AVA'S POVI woke up drenched in sweat, my breath coming out in soft, uneven gasps.For a moment, I just lay there warm, trembling, and confused before the cold cling of my panties made everything snap back into place.Oh goddess.I parted my legs and looked down.Soaked.Not just damp.Not cute.Ut
AVA’S POVI stood in front of the mirror on the evening of my eighteenth birthday, smoothing down the rose-gold gown I had picked out weeks ago. My hands trembled slightly, not from fear, but from excitement—raw, breathless, consuming excitement.Tonight was supposed to be the night.The night I fi
