My lips quivered as the video of Mason and I having sex on Julia’s phone. Mason’s face had been properly blurred and only his well rounded bottom and well toned back could be seen. As for me, my entire body was on display, including my face. The whole world was watching me have sex on the frickin internet!
Mason must have filmed us doing the deed without my knowledge. How could I have been so stupid? “If Agatha sees this, I am so dead,” I squeaked as tears poured down my cheek. How could I have been so dumb? He must have filmed this as evidence for his friends. Mason successfully ruined my reputation, all for fifty bucks. “When did this happen?” Julia asked, I could see the disappointment on her face, even though she was trying desperately to hide it. I shook my head. “It doesn’t matter.” I went on all fours as I reached for the box under my bed. I pulled out the box and opened it. I had put away some money to help with college I took out fifty dollars and returned the box under the bed. “What are you going to do?” Julia asked perplexed. “Pay Mason the money for the bet and hope he takes down the video,” I threw over my shoulder as I marched out of the room. I could hear Julia call after me but I did not respond. Mason did not need fifty bucks for anything, he was fucking rich and the heir to a multi billion dollar empire. So I don’t understand why he would do such a thing to me for fifty bucks. The most magical night of my life just morphed into a nightmare, a terrible one that I would give anything to wake up from. I pushed the door to the game room open and Mason and his band of crappy friends looked up from their game of snooker. Mason flashed an awkward smile as he came close to where I stood, while the rest of his gang looked away. “Hey beautiful,” he said. “You can save it for the next girl dumb enough to sleep with you,” I shot back. “We will leave you two to talk “We will leave you two to talk,” Elliott said , the other guys followed him out of the room reluctantly. Mason frowned. “Is it because I left before you? You looked so peaceful and I did not want to wake you. And I had to meet up with the guys,” he explained. But he was better off saving the bull story for someone who cared for it. I took his hand and shoved the fifty bucks into it. He glanced at me in surprise. “Here is your fifty bucks. Congrats on sleeping with the maids daughter,” I sneered. He opened his mouth and closed it severally. Somehow I hoped for an explanation that would explain away why he did what he did and I hated myself for looking for excuses to forgive Mason. But even Mason could not find a good enough lie to explain away why he deceived me. “All along I thought you liked me. I actually thought that last night meant something more than just sex,” I said weakly, loathing myself even more for being weak. He smiled but it did not reach his eyes. “Come on Imogene, it was just fun. Last night was fun for both of us. I apologize if I led you think there was something more like.” I felt my heart break into a million pieces. All these was just for fun? I had given my heart, soul and body to Mason and he was just having fun with me? I wiped away the lone year drop that crawled down my face. “Delete that video you uploaded,” was all I could say. His eyebrows knitted together as he furrowed them. He looked confused as though he had no idea of what I was talking about. But I would not be fooled again. “What video?” he asked. “The video where you showed the whole world an intimate moment we shared together last night.” His small smile immediately turned to a frown. “What are you talking about?” he asked “Oh stop pretending for fucks sake. Did you also upload the video of us having sex just for fun too?” “I don’t know what you are talking about. I did not post the video,” he replied seriously. “Are you also denying making the video?” I crossed my arms over my chest. He scratched his head uncomfortably. “Well I did. But not to post it online but so that I can always remember out time together.” I shook my head severally in disbelief as I snorted a dry laugh. “Fuck you Mason,” I spat “I didn’t know it would be leaked. It must be one of my friends. I promise I will fix this,” ha e replied. But I knew there was no fixing this. Even if he manages to remove the video from the internet, it has already being watched by hundred if people. My life was over and it was a matter of time before Agatha sees it and finally kills me, that is if Mason’s mother does not throws us out of their house first. He tried to take my hand but I just yanked my hand free and brushed past him. I had not only lost my pride and dignity, but I have also lost fifty dollars. I crawled into my bed and sulked. That was all I could at this point. What I would give to be able to go back in time and stop myself from going out yesterday. Or better still I would go back in time and stop myself from ever falling for Mason. When my bedroom door flew open and Agatha came in, her face red as a tomato, I braced myself for whatever she was about to do to me, because I deserved it. “Pack your bags, you are leaving this house immediately!” My eyes widened in shock. Ok I do not deserve this.Julia’s POVI stirred as the light fell on my face.The memories of the previous night came flooding back, making my lips stretch in a small, satisfied smile. The way we kissed we such passion that threatened to consume me, the feel of his hands as he caressed my naked skin, the feel of his member as it delivered mind shattering strokes….How could so bad feel so damn good? And that wasn’t the worst part.The worst part was that I still wanted a repeat of last night.My eyelids flickered open with the hopes of catching a glimpse of Tristan, but to my surprise his part of the bed was empty.That was when I heard it.The melodious tune coming from outside the room. Someone was playing the piano. It had to be Tristan.I climbed out of bed and grabbed his shirt from the floor and threw it on.I stepped out of the room, following the sound of the music till I can to a stop outside of a room.Stealthily, I pushed the door open and found Tristan in front of a grand piano, his long fingers sk
Julia’s POVMaybe I shouldn’t have said anything.But he would have still found out either way. We were just about to have sex! This was better. Yes.On the bright side, even though my entire body was aflame with longings that I have never felt before and dying to grab his member and inserting inside me; at least I get to save myself for someone that deserves me. Someone that did not blackmail me into becoming his property.I folded my hand over my chest, a weak attempt at covering my shame. I’m not even sure why I was feeling ashamed. I did not do anything wrong.I should leave. Yes, it was better than standing here and enduring this awful silence.I spun around and headed for the door.“Are you scared?” his voice boomed coolly from behind me.I halted almost immediately, my hand freezing on the door knob but I didn’t dare look back. I didn’t want to see the horror in his eyes. I did not want him to reject me. I inhaled sharply. “Yes.”“Good. I am anything but gentle.”It’s a good th
Julia’s POVI downed the first glass of champagne in one gulp and stretched out my glass for a refill.“Easy tiger,” Tristan chuckled as he refilled my glass.What did he expect? He can’t just tell a girl that he flew her miles away from home just to make her his. And by his, I am almost certain he meant sex but just to be certain I had to ask.“What did you mean by what you said?” I asked as I took a sip of my drink. It was best to be sober for whatever it was that Tristan had planned for tonight.I hated that the thought of sex with Tristan excited me and caused a strange warmth to pool between my legs. I should be repulsed, angry even, but instead I am flushed like some stupid virgin about to lose her virginity to the love of her life. Which, of course, was not my situation. Tristan took away my opportunity to lose my virginity to my sweet ex-boyfriend.Josh had been beyond surprised when he found out that I was still a virgin. He said we would take it slow until I was ready to tak
Julia’s POVThe only thing I hated more than secrets was having to keep a secret, especially keeping a secret from my best friend. I hate having to lie to Imogen, but what to do. The secret I overheard from Agatha and Tilda’s conversation a few days ago, was way too big and was eating me up inside. But Agatha was right, it is a secret that would crush Imogen and I cannot bare to see Imogen fall apart. So I have to keep thins secret from her in other to protect her.But keeping the secret would be pointless if Imogen does not stay away from Mason. I had really hoped that offering my savings to Imogen would convince her to leave town, but it didn’t. It nearly caused a rift between Imogen and myself. But thank God it didn’t. I would just have to keep an eye on Imogen and make sure she does not go anywhere close to Mason.“What do you think Julia?” Lucretia’s voice drifted into my thoughts.My head snapped up almost immediately. “What?”A small frown creased Tristan’s face as his Lucretia
Imogen’s POVI stirred as the light, filtering in through the window, hit my face. I made to stretch but I bumped into another body. My eyelids immediately flew open, I craned my head and found Agatha fast asleep behind me, with her arm still draped loosely around my chest.A warm feeling slowly began to fill my chest but I immediately pushed it away. The last time Agatha had been this way with me was when I was thirteen and had gotten my period for the first time. I had been so terrified and uncomfortable, my father had to call Agatha and she came back home to give me ‘the talk’. I had felt so much better. But Agatha was gone the very next morning and I didn’t see her until my fourteenth birthday when she took me away.Agatha was terrible at showing love, if I didn’t know better I would think she wasn’t my mother. For every tiny act of love she showed me, she ripped my life further apart. She may have given birth to me, but she was not my mother. She never has been.I removed her han
Imogen’s POVI blinked in confusion. I thought we just hugged it out and forgiven each other. Why then does she want me to leave again? Something was up with Julia, I could tell from the way she fiddled with her necklace pendant. She usually did that when something was wrong or when she was trying to hide something. “Weren’t you the one that convinced Agatha to let me stay?” Or was I wrong to think that.She sighed and created more distance between us. “I did. And I regret it.”Ok that hurt. The sincerity in her eyes as she said those words hurt more than the words themselves. But a part of me still did not believe that Julia truly wanted me gone. Something was definitely going on with her but what? Was that also why she broke up with Josh too?“Jules….”“Listen,” she took my hands, her eyes, filled with concern, were boring into mine, “I have some money saved up. You can add that to the one you have saved up. It should be enough for you to move to New York like you always wanted. Sta
