Blair Monore
By the end of the week, She had chewed every single fingernail down to the nubbins.
Every time She considered asking someone for advice - even anonymously on the Internet - a wave of paranoia would overtake her and she would bite her tongue. She couldn’t risk doing anything that would violate Mr. Thorne’s trust or even Zeke's Trust in her. Even if she hasn't signed the contract yet, and even if she did, she was pretty sure the silence clause would apply retroactively. Or would it?
She found herself wishing that she could afford her own lawyer. An attorney she could pay for his silence and counselling, but she knows damn right that the press would do a better job in striking a better deal with the lawyer if ever they want to dig out the truth. But it would be helpful to go over this whole thing with someone who was level-headed and experienced, and who could be trusted to keep things quiet. But that simply wasn’t possible.
Driving home on Friday, she was completely drained. And for the first time in a while, a weekend of quiet relaxation simply wasn’t in the cards, she was going to spend the whole break mulling this situation over in her head, trying to figure out her next move. Whatever decision she made was certainly one she would have to live with, well, for the rest of her life.
Suddenly she became dimly aware of a rattling noise coming from somewhere, but she tried to ignore it as she approached the world’s longest traffic light. She wasn’t sure if it was really longer than others or if it just seemed like it was, because it was only a few blocks from her apartment. But either way, she gritted her teeth when she saw it turn red as she approached.
She could feel her back begin to ache as she sat at the mechanic’s, in a tiled room that stank of oil and rubber. The car was going to give up soon, she was very much aware of it. It was the only thing she ever got from her uncle.
Although it was an old crickety car but it help with errands and her multiple part time jobs. Saved her money too from boarding a bus. SheI couldn’t shake the feeling of dread because she just knew the news wasn’t going to be good, and there was no way she could afford a major repair right now.
When they finally called her up to the counter, she could barely focus on what they were saying to her. The few words that penetrated the haze in her brain didn’t sound good. “Badly degraded.” “Major repairs.” “Payment plan.”
Numbly, she pulled out the only credit card she had that wasn’t already maxed out and handed it over to make my first deposit. If she lived off of cup noodles for a while, she could manage to make the minimum payments. Hell, if she was lucky, she would be paying this off until she retired.
"Christ! Fuck my life"She grimaced.
Of course, there was another option.
"Zeke's Proposal"A little tiny voice in her head squeaked.
If she took zeke's offer then she wouldn't have to suffer this much, the thoughts and ideas of what she could do with the money that will be deposited to her once she signs the contract is scary but yet thrilling.
But the real question is, Living a fake and premeditated life to access that much wealth is it worth it. Going that far with a fake facade that involves an innocent child. A baby? Was she willing to risk all that.
As Blair rode the shuttle home,she lost herself in a fantasy of being a billionaire’s bride. Even if it was just for a year…of course she'd have her payment after that, which would be a dream come true in and of itself. But to live for an entire year, without having to think or worry about money once? That was beyond anything she could even imagine. Once she was managing her own small fortune, it would be different. Instead of being worried as to where her next meal or paycheck will come from, she'll be worried about where to invest it, how to save it.
She would spend all of her free time concerned with making it last. If decides to play the role of Thorne's wife, she would be completely worryfree. All her needs would be met, anything just anything she would ask for she could get and have it.
She was tired of this life, ehausted from living paycheck to paycheck, trying to scrape enough money together to float her credit card bills for another month. Between the loan payments and some old medical bills, most of her paychecks left her hands before she even had a chance to think about where to spend them.
But it didn’t have to be that way anymore.
Zeke had given me his personal cell phone number, something that I suspected he rarely gave to anyone. He was anxious to know my decision. Of course he was. He tried to hide it as best he could, but I knew how badly he needed me to say yes.
Just as my thoughts ran wildly and freely, my phone rang and uncle Charles name popped out of the called ID.
Not again!
Blair ended his call almost immediately and the phone rings yet again with violence. She decided to let it ring out when he got tired he'll stop calling..
His calls came in three more time, and then it stopped. Soon her phone pinged signalling she got a message, picking up her phone to check who it was she saw his bold threat .
SEND ME THE MONEY I ASKED FOR! YOU DON'T WANT ME GOING TO YOUR WORKPLACE TO CAUSE A SCENE RIGHT??
Send it now!
Immediately Blair transferred the last cash in her account to her uncle Charles. He has always been like that, him with the threats and extortion when will it all end!
When she got home, she pulled the wrinkled sticky note out of her pocket and dialed Zeke's number.
He answered on the first ring.
“Hello?” His voice was dark and smooth, like…no, she couldn’t let herself think that way. Come on, Blair, Get it together.
“Hello, Mr. ARMANI? It’s uh…it’s Blair Monore”
There was just a moment’s hesitation. “I think maybe…you ought to get used to calling me Zeke now. I could hear him smiling down the phone. The fact that I was calling him out of the blue gave away my hand.
“Okay, Zeke” I said. “Have the contract ready for me on Monday.”
“Of course,” he said.
“I know it’s a purely verbal agreement at this point, but can you do something for me?”
“Anything.”
I felt goose bumps rising on my arms, for some incomprehensible reason.
"Please do not go back on your words, in helping me pay off my debts and loans. The ones under my name and my uncle's, am pretty sure you ran a background check before asking me to be your contract wife."Blair says nervously her hand shaking so terribly she feared they might fall off.
"Am a business man Blair. I never go back on my words, all the terms will be stated in the contract so am bound to do and fulfil my part of the contract and as you in helping restore my image. So you've got yourself a deal Ms. Monore or should I say Ms. Armani"He says with a playful drawl added to his deep rich tone.
"Yes"She says sputtering. Immediately she ended the call her kness grew weak and she slumped crashing on the floor...
Is it really worth it??
She hopes so!!
Been burnt terribly by the hands of poverty can make you want to take all the risk in this world when given the opportunity!
Fuck it!
She's Ms. Armani now
Blair MonoreThe next few days after signing the contract were an absolute blur for Blair.She quit her job. Movers came and boxed up everything valuable that she owned. She told her landlord she was moving. And suddenly she was living in Zeke’s apartment building. She had an apartment under her name two floors below Zeke’s penthouse suite. Her apartment was much, much, much larger than her old apartment, The movers helped in moving her things into the apartment, she had shopped for new clothes, bags a whole new wardrobe with Zeke's credit card, even the furniture the movers helped her with were all brand new.Zeke had given her an apartment in his building so she could have a freedom and space, but the original plan is to stay with him in his own house. We're supposed to play to new couple who move in together and Zeke was thoughtful enough to know sometimes she needed her space just as he needed his too. She was reorganizing her dishes when there came a knock on the door. She opene
Blair MonoreFew hours later...Blair has been waiting for Zeke to come home that night. He was due home any minute now and she has been counting the seconds to their promised and unpromised dinner. For some reason she couldn't sit and wait without dirty sexual thoughts running through her brain.She sat but the switched to lay on the couch in the living area. Not caring if she looked desperate or not, apart from her humble background. Blair has always been a sexual creature and being broke or poor didn't change that. She had a special weekend when she goes clubbing picks the perfect random guy whom's desire matched hers and had a one night stand with he or she. And yes she's bisexual, she knew and had full knowledge of what desire meant and she made sure to pick her men or women wisely. She also knew the tricks and woos amof seduction, She knew that she would be the first thing he would see when he walked in the door, because she’d checked it to make sure. She’d stood in the entrywa
Blair MonoreShe wasn’t sure if it was the sunlight from the window or the noises from the kitchen that woke her up. She druggily dragged herself out of bed and down the hallway to the bathroom with some difficulty; she'd finally been able to drift off to sleep after hours of being rammed by Zeke's monstrous dick. They'd had gone like 4 more rounds after their first intercourse leaving her weak in her knees. Zeke had been the one to carry her over to the bedroom, thanks to him last night she definitely hadn’t gotten any decent rest.After a quick shower, she felt slightly more human. She wrapped herself in a thick, fluffy robe and padded down the large luxury hallway towards the kitchen. Zeke turned around when he heard one of the stools at the elegant breakfast bar scraping along the floor.He was wearing jeans and a tee shirt which was a new look since she had never seen him on casual wear before.. So he did know how to dress like a normal person. That was encouraging.She just wish
Zeke ArmaniA month later....This was it, the day they've both practiced and rehearsed for. Today is the day they'll have their first real public appearance as a couple and Zeke was nervous. He wasn't nervous about the event they were about to attend but he was more nervous for Blair and but how the public would react to her. Blair is such a good, warm and kindhearted girl. He knew they would love her if they could just give her a chance.He was worried that they wouldn’t give her that chance. He knew how cruel the media could be. He knew that they could rip her to shreds just like they did him. And all he wanted to do was to protect her from all but at the end of the day. They'll have to face it together, no matter how much he dreads what they're about to face.Zeke pushed his fears aside and waited patiently for Blair to emerge from the dressing room. The hair and makeup crew had both left, so she just needed to put on her dress. Blair was the most sensual and one of the most beau
Blair Monore"So you're his new plaything or what did he call you girlfriend?? If only that were true though, because Zeke Armani dosen't do forever"A man with a handsome face but with cold piercing eyes says to her with pure glint of mischief..By the way I love the scene you've been painting since you walked in. New face nobody has ever seen but yet simple , so tell me how exactly did you two meet?” the man asked Blair .“Excuse me, I’m afraid I didn’t get your name,” she said, doing her best to be polite. She glanced around, looking for Zeke, but she didn’t see him anywhere.“Johnny,” the man replied. He smiled in what she assumed was supposed to be a friendly smile, but it felt more like looking at a snark. Johnny walker“It’s very nice to meet you," Blair told him. “Would you excuse me for a moment?”Blair gave him a short smile and turned to step away. Something told her that if Zeke and her plan were to work, she needed to get away from this man as quickly as possible.“Please
Zeke Armani It's been two days, two freaking days after their attendance to the fundraiser and it's been the most hectic, busiest and most chaotic two days of his life. He was of course happy about the traffic but it was a little of more than he expected. The night after the fundraiser the internet went up in flames with news of his live in girlfriend, reporters swarm the door of his penthouse. Newspaper, blogs, reporters , tweeters on the internet were all ranting and speculating about his new girlfriend. They even requested for an interview with him on Ellen's show to think he wasn't that big of a celebrity. It's been nerve-racking for the both of them. The news hadn't been nice to Blair in the beginning of publishing articles about them, they called her the Coffee Cinderella. Immediately news got out about his new girlfriend, they made their research and of course Zeke expected that of them because then they wouldn't be reporters without proper research.Old photos of Blair surfa
Zeke ArmaniImmediately they got back to the hotel suite, he was feeling relaxed.. “I’m going to take a shower,” she says over her shoulder as she walks toward the bedroom.He slips off his damp clothing, and he could hear the shower running. He glance down the hall to see her bathroom door standing wide open. Interesting. He pad down the hallway and stared into the bathroom. If that’s not an invitation, then he has no idea what it was then... Blair is in the shower and he could see her clearly through the transparent shower door. The water is steamy but it hasn’t clouded up the glass yet. She stood beneath the shower head with the water cascading down her naked body.He'd been ogling her all day at the beach, but seeing her naked has his heart hammering in his chest like he's about to have a heart attack.Her wet skin glistens in the light, giving her an otherworldly quality. Like someone so perfect shouldn’t even exist. But there she stood, mesmerizing him. Her eyes were closed a
Blair MonoreBeing Zeke's pretend girlfriend is like a dream. That even now she's seeing him in her dreams too...Crap!Since the surprise beach trip there relationship and even their sex life has been wild, she had definitely learned to tune out the press, social media and what the online critiques say about her. Blair just focused on doing her part and also enjoying her new found relationship with Zeke. Who was ridiculously cute, and a romantic even when he denies he wasn't!The fact that he hates the word love and still wooes her and makes her trip over her own feet baffles her. Blair had woken up hours ago but just lay on the bed thinking and mauling over her new situationship that was moving to a two months relationship now. She opened her eyes and looked around. She was still in Zeke’s bed, wrapped up in luxurious duffet. Zeke was nowhere to be seen which means he had probably left for work. She most have slept through the Morning yet again...Something she never did nor had the
