The Billionaire
March 29, 2009
Beuford Randolph Ellison III
"I'm coming. I just got held up a bit. I went by the hospital to get some papers signed then I helped this girl that was being harassed by her ex." I got out of my car and walked fast. The Chrysos, a building my great grandfather built, stood in the center of the city.
"I'm literally walking on the grounds now, Corine." I hung up and put my phone in my pocket.
"Good morning, Mister President," Frank, the head security, said. "Hope you have a good day today sir." He saluted and smiled.
"I already did, Frank. I already did." I grinned from ear to ear. It's been a long time since a woman ever made me interested like that.
God, I hope she calls me soon.
"Morning sir," Janice, my secretary of five years, said in her usual happy tone. "Your coffee is on the table and Miss Corine has been waiting for about two hours." I knew Corine must have given her a hard time for my tardiness. "Tnx, Jan and sorry about you know who." She winked and went back to her desk.
"Hi. Sorry. I'm here now." I smiled at Corine sitting stiffly on the office couch. She pursed her lips and raised an eyebrow before saying,
"What did you mean you saved some girl? Like you intervened in a fight? That's the stupidest thing you've ever done, Boo. You could've gotten hurt. Do you know how many people in this city own guns now?"
Corine stood up and walked towards me. She held my chin up and turned my face left to right, checking for any injuries.
"You do remember I'm a black belt, yes?" I stepped back from her. Being too close to anyone always freaked me out. Even Corine. As I sat in my chair, the memory of her love confession months ago made me smile.
"Why are you smiling?" Corine snapped. Her eyebrows met and formed a single line. Boy, was she irritated today.
"Nothing. I thought of something, that's all. So, how did your meeting with the Yashimo group go?" I opened the folder on my table. "We have to finish all these today. I'll be unavailable next week."
"What?! Where are you going?" Corine said, her voice a pitch higher than usual.
"Ferguson Inc. finally wants to sell," I boasted. "We’re gonna make billions, Corine! I’m going to fly to Seattle on the 31st, work out the details and seal the deal. It’ll take a week, give or take.” Corine folded her arms and only stared at me.
“What's wrong? A billlion dollars can't even make you smile a little bit?
“Yipee..” She said without the faintest excitement. This woman really needs to get laid soon. I smiled. If it wasn't for her strict demenour, men would probably fall in line to date her.
By the time I was done with all the papers that needed signing, it was already four in the afternoon. Janice knocked on my office door and brought in my coffee. It happened in a flash. She tripped on a loose rug five steps from me and the coffee burned me right in the chest.
“Oh my god. I’m so sorry Mr. Beuford, sir. I’ll get you napkins.” She ran outside before I could tell her not to worry because I had a handkerchief.
I put my hand in my pocket but it wasn’t there. Lucille. The memory of her radiant smile warmed my already burning and wet chest. I definitely have to see that gorgeous girl again.
The Retired Playboy March 29, 2009 Jasper Caleb Lauder "Hi. Good morning. Am I supposed to give this here?" I gave the piece of paper doctor Steward told me to bring to the lab. The medical laboratory was huge. There were different partitions of rooms inside. Every wall was made of glass and it was easy to see everything and everyone. The people moving inside looked like colorful fishes with their scrub suits. "Go in through that door, please." the receptionist said, pointing to a door on my right. It was labeled Extraction area. "Okay. Thanks." I opened the door and sat on a chair beside a table full of syringes and other stuff I didn't know the names of. My stomach was in kno
The Drunk March 29, 2009 LUCILLE "Whoa! I feel good, tanan na-nan-nana-nan. I knew that I would, now" James Brown's voice echoed throughout the hallway. Shocked, I hurried to cancel the call. "Hey, Cool song. Sorry. Just wanted to make sure you gave me your real number." Jasper said. He put his phone back in his pocket. "Of course I did. Like I said, we're friends now." I smiled and wondered what this handsome man did for a living. I assumed he was some kind of model base from his get up. He was wearing black pants and a navy blue body fit shirt covered by a black leather jacket.
How to Fight Your Demons March 30 2009 Jasper I let out a breath and tried to calm my erratic heart beats. My blood flowed more to a certain part of my body. “Down, boy, down!” I said to my already bulging pants. This girl is driving me nuts. First, she refuses a dinner date on account of having just met me. Then she replies to my good night text with a drunken call. And now she sleeps in the passenger seat of my Ferrari wearing nothing but a tiny piece of clothing. She might as well have been naked with her damn sexy legs exposed and boobs sticking out. Fuck, I want her so bad. We arrived at
The Playgirl March 30, 2009 Lucille AAAHHHHH! How am I supposed to resist all that? I shook my hands to calm myself. The image of his huge junk and ass were still fresh in my mind. My cheeks burned. Jasper left his bedroom door open. I took deep breaths to give my brain enough oxygen to think clearly, but the sound of the shower running made my imagination run wild again. What would he do if I went in with him? “Get a grip, Lu.” I said, slapping my cheeks. You sleep with him and you're gonna fall in love guaranteed. You're gonna get hurt again.
The Damned April 6, 2009 Boo The deal in Seattle that lasted five days had gone well. Ferguson Incorporated was now mine. At our celebratory lunch, Mr. Hiroko Yashimo invited me to go with him to California for a weekend getaway. I was about to decline, because all I wanted to do was go home and find Lucille, but then I saw her. "Daisy." Her long blonde hair and pale skin caught my eye. She passed by the restaurant wearing her favorite white nightgown. I hurried out, bumping into a waiter carrying a tray of food, the sound of broken glass and utensils made a ruckus. Shit. "Sorry. Sorry." I said, not stopping to help him up. When I was finally outside, I found the sidewalks empty. My chest tightened as
Crazy in love April 6, 2009 Jasper Lucille. Lucille. Lucille. Beautiful, hot, smart, funny, Lucille. I lay on my bed and tried to get her out of my mind. I tossed and turned. I placed the pillow on my face and shouted. AAAHHHHH!! Good thing I own the whole 30th floor or else the neighboors would have thought I was crazy. Lucille was smiling. Lucille on top of me grinding hard. Lucille's mouth was open and her head bent backwards having an orgasm. I sighed and gave up the task. My mind was determined to make me suffer. There was no escaping her. I looked at the time on my bedside table and it was still 9:30pm. Fuck. I have to see her.
Goodbyes April 7 2009 Lucille Permanently delete all items? Am I sure? Do I really want to delete all the photos of Nathan and me? Decide Lu. You can do this. You have to do this now. I stared at my laptop's screen with red puffy eyes and sniffed. Even though I was alone in the lab, it felt like someone was crushing my chest with their hands. When Jasper nibbled on my ear and kissed my neck a few hours ago, I suddenly remembered how Nathan used to do it. For a moment I fantasized that it was him behind me and I allowed myself to feel that longing I had for him since we broke up. But when Jasper f
The Past and The Present April 10, 2009 Boo Lucille lay beside me with her eyes closed, her naked chest heaved up and down. I propped my elbow up to look at her beautiful face and traced my fingers on her nose and lips. She smiled and looked at me. Lucille lifted her head up to meet my lips and I moved on top of her. I lightly kissed her cheeks, her neck and her breasts. Her lavender scent intoxicated me. My mouth went lower to the spot between her legs until she moaned over and over again. The sweet sound of her voice made me hard. I lifted my head to look at her but my pounding heart came to a full stop. Lucille’s bloodshot eyes were wide with fear as she looked at me. She put her hands on her throat as if she couldn't breathe and blood started dripping from her head
