ログインJust when she thoughts things couldn't get any worse after she had ended things with the first love of her life, disaster struck as Phoebe Scott found out she was pregnant with his child. Find out what becomes her fate when her path crosses with Lucas Reid, a man seeking revenge for past grudges.
もっと見るPhoebe Scott stood in the living room of the expensive mansion she’d become familiar with. Today was going to determine the fate of her future with Trevor Maddox. She checked the time for the umpteenth time, wondering if he would show up. He doesn't like her coming without notice.
She'd been in a relationship with him for the past four years. Although it was clearly stated in the contract she’d signed that she was needed for sex, which she had agreed to as she was in desperate need of money, it wasn't the case anymore. “What if he doesn't come?” she soliloquized, anxiety gripping her in a tight embrace. Her feet found their way to the wine collection rack where she poured herself a drink from one of the many bottles sitting there. She took a big gulp as she closed her eyes, savoring the sweet taste of the wine on her tongue. She wouldn't be enjoying such luxury if she hadn't met him. If she hadn't agreed to be his sex toy, she would probably still be in the streets finding the money to pay her father's huge heart surgery bills, their house rents, and even money for feeding. She owed Trevor her life, literally. Their first meeting happened to be the day her landlord kicked her out of the house, paying deaf ears to her helpless pleas. Trevor had been her prince in shining garments as he helped her pick her stuff up before driving her to this mansion which was his private property. After making her feel at home and she’d sobered up a bit, he asked about her story and after she was done with explaining her life ordeals, brought up an offer which she grabbed with both hands. “It was just for a year,” she had thought. “And he was a good-looking fellow. So without giving it any more thought, she scribbled her signature on the document. And Trevor never gave her any reason to regret her decision all through those years. He paid her father's hospital bills and also bought her a three-bedroom apartment. Since then, Phoebe became his secret slut, with them meeting at his secret mansion twice every week to have sex. She knew nothing about him other than the fact that he seemed to be from a rich background and was keeping her a secret. She never bothered anyway, as it was entirely business, and if the truth must be told, enjoyed every bit of the activity. Whenever they were in the heat of the moment, she felt like she was in heaven, with each deep thrust of Trevor sending waves of pleasurable sensations through her. He wasn't rough in bed and in fact, took his time to cherish every part of her body like she was the most expensive asset in his possession. It felt more like lovemaking than it was a hook-up. “I shouldn't have told him that over the phone,” Phoebe mumbled to herself. Just then she heard footsteps and instinctively, while thanking her stars that he'd showed up, walked in calculated steps towards the door. On the very first knock, she opened the door and was graced with the magnificent figure of him, looking as handsome and well-put-together as he’d always been. She hadn't noticed that it had been raining outside, if not for the few patches of water she saw on his suit. The look in his eyes was evidence of his foul mood and it made Phoebe involuntarily swallow saliva. Shifting to the side, she let him in as she braced up for what was to come. Phoebe shut the door behind him and walked with him into the living room. Trevor removed his suit jacket and threw it on the arm of one of the chairs. He did the same with his white T-shirt which made Phoebe avert her gaze. Even though she’d seen him naked a couple of times, she still felt shy when he casually did stuff like that. A hand pulled at her chin and soon her eyes were locked with the brown ones of Trevor. “What's up with the message?” Phoebe was taken aback by the tone of his voice which was a big contrast to the look he had on. She knew he was just trying to be cool. She opened her mouth to say something but her words betrayed her, a low sigh coming out in its place. Trevor's facial expressions softened as he watched her display, his initial anger dispersing into thin air. Without hesitation, he sealed his lips to hers. Since he’d risked coming here, without prior notice, why let the day go to waste? He was pissed with how she'd summoned him to meet her today for something urgent but now he didn't even care to know what it was. He couldn't deny that this woman was irresistible, the exact reason he had offered her the contract in the first place. He wasn't the type to give conditions before helping one in need, but the way her long and full lashes had fluttered in tears, with her lips trembling and her petite figure looking so calm, awakened a once limp member between his thighs. He always fancied having a sweetheart for the sole purpose of sex and has had a few in the past, but has never imposed the decision on anybody but Phoebe was different. Destiny threw her at his feet and he took it as a golden opportunity to strike his deal. She didn't return the kiss but it only urged him on as he deepened it, his huge hands circling her tiny waist. She moaned into his mouth but it did nothing more than fuel his already aroused self. Another light moan fell out of her lips and it made him smile into the kiss. They kissed for some time, their tongues battling like two wrestlers, for one that would dominate the other. With his lips still entwined with hers, he led her to the bedroom and soon they were a foot away from the king-sized bed. He made to remove the strings of her silk gown that exposed a fair amount of her breast when her hand held his in place. “Le_Let’s talk first, Trevor.” Her voice broke the silence of the room. There was a hint of uncertainty and urgency laced to it.Lucas’s car rolled into the driveway with a low hum before coming to a complete halt. He turned off the engine, but for a long moment, he remained where he was. The mansion stood before him, magnificent as always.But his mind was somewhere else.He hadn't planned to come home early. He’d been in his office but it had been difficult to concentrate. Every time he closed his eyes, Trevor’s face flashed through his mind and it sent a dreadful chill down his spine. It wasn't that he didn't trust Phoebe. He did. Completely.But he’d grown up with Trevor and knew exactly the kind of man he was. He knew how far he could go to get what he wanted, how convincing he could be. Even though he’d claimed to be done with his pursuit, Lucas couldn't bring himself to believe that. He glanced at the time on his dashboard again. “They should've been back by now,” he muttered. With a frustrated exhale, he finally opened the door and stepped out. The moment he entered the house, the familiar scent o
Trevor caught up with Indigo just as she reached her bedroom door.“Indigo,” he called, his voice carrying a sharp edge to it.She paused, her hand hovering over the handle. Slowly, she faced him and bowed her head. “Yes, sir?” The words came out automatically as though she was trying to hide something. Trevor noticed it and it tugged something uncomfortable in his chest. He opened his mouth but nothing came out.“I…I_“The words tangled in his tongue. In his haste to follow her, he hadn’t stopped to think of what he would tell her once he caught up. The more she stared at him expectantly, the more the question pressed in on him. Why am I even here?The question pressed in on him the more he stood there, his gaze locked with her expectant ones. Why had he felt unsettled when she’d looked at him disappointedly? Why was he standing here in his mansion, grasping for words like a guilty child? His subconscious continued to bombard him with questions. She was just a maid. But yet, th
Phoebe’s laugh broke free before she could even stop it. It was short, sharp, and carried no humor at all. “I should have known,” she said. Her voice trembled despite her efforts to keep herself rooted in place. She straightened her shoulders, refusing to let him see her falter. “All the problems with my husband. Ivan’s acting up, Liam.” Her eyes narrowed as they locked on Trevor’s face.”I should have known it was your doing.”Trevor didn't move. He remained where he stood, his arms folded leisurely across his chest in a way that made her almost scream. Then his eyes darkened. “You give me too much credit,” he said calmly. Phoebe shook her head, a scoff tearing from her lips at the same time. “No, I didn’t give you enough. I should have known that devils hardly ever change.” Her gaze flickered just in time to notice his eyes drifting to Indigo before returning to her. “You couldn’t stand it, could you?” she continued. “That I found myself in the hands of a man who’s everything yo
Phoebe knocked on the door again and again, each thrust carrying the weight of the days she’d waited, the sleepless nights she'd had. She would have been here earlier if not for Lucas who kept asking her to exercise patience.She was about to knock again when the door swung open abruptly, as though the person behind it had been there for a while. Trevor stood there, tall and composed as usual. He was dressed in a dark shirt with the sleeves casually rolled up at his forearms. His hair was tousled like he’d just woken up and his mouth curved into an unmistakably pleased smile. “Took you long enough, doll,” he said as his lips curved into an unmistakably pleased smile. Phoebe’s mouth tightened, her jaw locking as she stared at him in annoyance. A sudden urge to smack his face yanked somewhere beneath her but then she held it in. She knew the game he was playing. He wanted to get a reaction from her and she would rather let her anger consume her than give it to him.“Where is my son?”
