"You will have to get married to him" With every word that she spoke, her words rang into my head. I blinked, staring at Audrey in disbelief.
She shifted her gaze away from me, sitting comfortably on the chair. My voice slowly found it way back to me."What do you mean?" I asked, but it was more of a statement than a question.Me and the Billionaire, marriage?, be it contract or whatever, it was fucking impossible."I mean exactly what I said" I hear her voice again and it actually felt like it wasn't the same Audrey I know that was talking to me. My eyes glued to her."You can't be serious, you can't..."Don't you see the opportunity in all this" She cut me off. Her legs standing up, she moved towards me, before taking my hand. I pushed her away, moving back.How on fucking earth could I be so foolish to have shared this with her. I look back and see her moving close to me."Don't you dare take a step forward" I replied coldly and she stopped halfway, but still her lips parted."You love your mother, do you?" She asked me the same fucking question that wretch Camille asked me, before sending me to Xavier and ruining my already messed up shitty life."What..." I tried to speak, but she cut me off."I would have...WE would have take care of both your unborn child and mother together, but you know he can do it better, he has the money"She said and the next thing I know, she was gone, leaving me alone to battle with my already fed up self.Fucking money, fucking Billionaire!, I yelled."If you have any common sense, you'll sign the contract so the child won't be term illegitimate"..The word ringing back on my head, I place my hand on my stomach.....I boarded the cab straight to the skyscraper made of glass, I was smart enough to remember the same company I was taken too, by the Billionaire's mother.The same "STEEL'S" written in front, I feel something in my heart sinking, but still my legs kept moving, before stopping on it own in front of his office.My legs wanting to refuse to step it, it wanted to run far away from this hell again. I ignored my inner self, swallowing hard, before pushing the door open.My wandering eyes staring inside, I see a woman sitting on the chair, her dress..seductive and slut like, I feel disgusted, but at the same time, I could see the billionaire didn't really care much about her.Xavier's light eyes looking to the side, it meets mine and we froze, before he broke the contact."You can leave now" He instructed the blonde hair woman and I watch her stand up.Getting up from the chair, she catwalk, making sure she shook her butt all the way to the door before stopping next to me. She turned her face to the side and our eyes met, I pressed my lips together.Blonde hair, blue eyes, she looked just like Camille and that fact made my blood boil. I feel like pushing and stabbing her countless of times.Who the fuck does she thinks she is, my mind yelled out, but I remained calm, squeezing the end of my dress.My eyes looking back at her, a little fake smile escape her lips, before she finally left at last. I rolled my eyes.The door shutting behind my back, I take a step forward to him and our eyes meets again."Why did you send her away, I thought you were clearly busy" Something inside me boiled as I said those words out."Is this what you are interested in?" He arched his eyebrow, before getting up from his chair. He was right, I wasn't here for chitchat, but for business.Standing up from his chair, he rested his back on his table, folding his arms together. My eyes quickly glanced at his business like suit, before looking back at him."I accept" I said, letting out a deep breath. He chuckled!, and my eyes shooted up, he just made me feel foolish."I believe nothing is funny Mr. Xavier" I asked sharply, but he ignored my speech tone. His eyes wandered around my face, before pausing on my green eyes."You need to understand Miss Iris, that this is not some kind of proposal" He paused, making sure my eyes was locked with his."This is a contract marriage, not and never for love"...."I am doing this cause of my mother constant bleeding on my ears...."And I am doing this for my unborn child" I cut him off, his eyebrows lifted up."I thought you said you were capable of taking care of your child on your own" He mocked me scoffing, before getting up from his table.One step, he comes close to me, but I don't back away."I thought you don't want this marriage" His eyes pierced into mine, trying to read my soul."What made you change your mind" I hear his voice again..."Do you like to play with fire, hmmm?" He asked coming a lot closer to me, yet my dumb legs glued rooted to the cold floor."Do you like when I touch you like this" He puts his hand on my cheek, stroking it back and forth. My eyes looks deeper into his."Do you get excited?" His voice becomes whispers.."Do you feel aroused?" The words leaving his lips, I feel shivers running down my spine, he was extremely close with me, but still I manage to keep the eye lock."Why do you feel like breaking the contract rules already, how would I trust you" I manage to speak, a grin slowly creeped up on his lips."Do you think I like you Miss Iris" He ignored my question and says his...."Do you think if you marry me your life would be filled with roses" Even though he was inches away from me, he kept on speaking.If I take a step forward, I would bridge the darn gap and our lips would touch, but instead I take a step away from him.You want to marry me, you don't like me, you hate me...What games are you playing with me Mr. billionaire. My mind yelled out, as I looked deep into his blue eyes, but I don't say it out loud, instead I cleared my throat."Like I said earlier, I am doing this only for my unborn child wellbeing" I said and watch his lips curve into a wider smile."Good!" He whispered, going back to his chair, sitting down."It's glad we both understand each other" His eyes back at me, his grin slowly faded away and his face becomes serious."Have a sit" He said again without taking his eyes off me and I reluctantly did so.Just like a client and a boss, I thought.He brings the contract out from a couple of other files before giving it to me, as well as a pen.I glanced at him one last time, before signing it. Immediately am done, I hear his voice again."To had more clarity to this issue, I will say it one last time"."This is a contract marriage and you are my wife for a year. Once the child is born we would split" He paused for a second before continuing...Three simple rules you must follow, don't think of ever breaking them. He glanced at me, making sure I was paying attention...Rule 1: No physical contact, no kissing, sex, Nothing!, don't even dare ever come close to me.Rule 2: Don't you ever invade my space, don't dare ask me what I do, what I eat or where am off to, don't act like you care, cause I don't need it.His voice sounded harsh and he talked to me as if was a dog.Rule 2: if you step out of the mansion, the contract is officially over and you would have to come up with a way to cather of both you and your unborn child throughout this nine months on your own, through your blood and sweat!Everyday if you comply with the rules, It would be better for us and we'll be living our separate life under one roof for a year, without ever getting on each other nerves.Obey me and my rules. I heard his voice again, but this time louder...commanding, dominating!."Understood?" He asked me, my eyes meets his in an eye lock. I nodded, before parting my lips..."Yes..." My eyes still glued to his, I watch his lips pressed together, frowning."You will respect me too, cause am both older than you in age and in matters of wealth" He said, and I squeezed my lips getting pissed off."Matters of wealth"... It's only money all day long for arrogant billionaire's like him, I scoffed.My eyes going back to him, his gaze becomes intense and I felt like I said my thoughts out loud"Understood?" He repeated again and I found my lips speaking on it own."Yes...Sir!""Good!" The words escaping his lips, he grinned.Three days, just three days I moved into Xavier's mansion, yet I feel suffocated already.Everything's fake!The pathetic shitty marriage we had in front of Xavier's mother and thousands of influential people, was all a fucking lie.Mr. Billionaire Xavier wasn't clearly brave enough to tell his own mother about our "One year" useless marriage. She's living in deceit, the whole fucking world is.Contact marriage, no contract marriage, this is all shit, but worst of all, I feel so used, even though am doing this all for my unborn child.It gives me goosebumps to imagine what my mother would see me has, after she finally gets discharged."You got pregnant and married in less than a month?"I could already imagine the horror in her face.My lips forming into a frown, I squeezed the blanket of the mega size bed before letting it go. The bed was enough to fit five living human beings.I look back at the bed, and the next thing that popped on my mind was jumping and rolling on it, but not bef
IRIS'S P.O.VI hear sounds coming from the other side of the door. Mr. billionaire must have finally chose to stop ignoring me. I rolled my eyes, as I kept on hearing the sounds. One more time and the door opens. I looked into his light eyes and all I feel is rage, I was stuck here because of his so-called wealthy bathroom. My mind yelled out, and I rushed to him fuming.My legs failed me slipping and I find myself falling to the cold floor. Halfway to the floor, I feel his hot palms on my bare back, he catched my fall, but not in the best way.His hand on my empty back, I feel shivers running down my spine, and time somehow standing still. My eyes wandered around his facial features, before fixing on his bright eyes. He looks back at me, and all the words leaves my lips, I become dumb. My back shivering, his hands were still holding me, making me regain myself at last.I pushed him away, and landed with my butt on the floor, but it was far better than the awkward feeling that was g
Our lips merged together like fire, intense, greedily wild. He devoured my lips as if his life depended on it."Xavier, no..." I protested, trying to push him away, but the more I tried, the more he filled my lips with countless of soft licks."Xavier..." My voice in a whisper, I said his name in his mouth, as my hand kept on hitting his chest over and over again. He grabs my hand firmly, raising it above my head. Our lips parted and I see his eyes burning with something so unexplainable, it made me shiver."Am...am pregnant Xavier" Fear gripping me, my lips parted, as I look at him deep in the eyes."Already a frightened kitten". He smirked, and my eyebrows arched. He was different, strange and piercing his blue eyes right into my soul, I swallowed hard."If you are pregnant, if you are not, that fucking lunatic wouldn't have spare you, he wouldn't have cared" He raise my chin up, holding the tip with his cold hand.My soul drowned to him."Do you know how shitty that would have bee
"IRIS'S P.O.V"...Ending the call with Audrey, I grinned to myself, but as soon as I get up from the couch, my eyes wandered to him. "How long as he been standing here, he didn't listen to my entire conversation did he?" My mind clouding me with pathetic questions, I look back at him.."Let's forget everything that happen".. The billionaire's words ringing back to my head, it always made me boil anytime I think about it, and that fact pissed me off so darn much.My eyes still on his, I watch him fold his arms together, but I don't care. "It's time to take control" I mumbled to myself, knowing too well that he wouldn't be able to hear that."You want to treat me like shit, for me to sleep on the couch, fuck it!" I boiled, but still my expression remained in check. I stylishly moved towards bed..."What the heck are you doing" I hear his voice. Damn he was too observant, but I ignored him, lying on the bed, and wrapping myself up with the bedsheets."What the fuck!" His voice echoed
XAVIER'S P.O.V....Countless raindrops falls...I watch her shiver, foolish girl!. She's too proud to say she is cold. If not because of the child, I would let her shiver to death.I look at my grey shirt, it was partially wet, so I take it off and put it on her shoulders. Her green eyes meets mine, but I look away to the side."Hand, give me your hand" I whispered to her..."Why?" She said, making me more pissed off. She doesn't do what I tell her willingly, always asking "Why", it always make me blood boil so fucking much.My eyes found it way back to her..."Are you carrying around someone else's hand you could give me?" I look at her green eyes."If you don't want to freeze and die, you will do what I say" I whispered back to her, watching her arch her eyebrows. My eyes traced down to her lips and I see it parting, but I don't wait for her reply. I grab her hand and take her to the swing set in the garden.Her clothes are not that drenched, Good!.IRIS'S P.O.V...."If you don't
IRIS'S P.O.V...."I think I like you Mr. Billionaire" Finally, I admitted to myself and it felt so darn good.The swing keep on swinging us back and forth and with every passing second, it actually felt like the world stood still. Only me and him left in this entire universe...How dumb of me to think that, but still it actually felt so fucking good. So many naughty things ran into my mind, that it made me actually think if I was the same person again.All this things hovering around me, it was because of him...Why do you always act so tough, always pushing me away and making me so pissed off, when this is the real you. I mumbled words that I know he would never be able to hear."Better now?" I finally hear his voice again, it vibrated in my body, and actually made me nervous for the first time, but still, I didn't want to keep silent, I didn't want to ignore him anymore."Am not cold again..Thank you" I whispered back to him. Even though I couldn't see his face, I felt he grinned a
IRIS'S P.O.V"Why did you think I hugged you?" He said looking straight into my soul, I can't look away. His eyes drowned me deeper and made my head blank. They burnt, they burnt...for me?"You care... My lips paused, as my eyes roamed around his facial features, before going back to his blue eyes".. about me" I whispered, with my breath inches away from him.I want to bridge this darn gap.I see his eyes shake, but still I don't break the eye lock. The urge takes over me and make my head go mad. I feel my hand moving on it own, it rises up and I finally touch his skin...They are cold, manly, yet soft and delicate. I look into his eyes, he looked into mine. The world is standing still again.My hand touch his face, only to immediately stop. My eyes looks back at him, and I move my hands up, before touching his face yet again. I caressed his cheeks slowly, and watch his eyes close shut. My lips slowly curved.."Is this what it feels like to be attracted to someone....Love- hate, wh
IRIS'S P.O.VAfter that embarrassing night with Xavier and how he told me exactly what he thought of me, it felt like years living in this darn mansion, even though it has only just clocked the ninth month.The ninth month of ignoring each other and minding our own business, the ninth month of deceiving his mother, by behaving like couples anytime she was in front of us, the ninth month of sleeping on that God forsaken couch, while Xavier get the bed all to himself.All he cares about is the child, he cleared it up to me that night. I got everything I and my baby needed, and all my pregnancy cravings were never ignored. But damn, am I happy?It's the ninth month of seeing Xavier and acting like total strangers, even though when we accidentally touch hands, I feel a crazy sensation rising inside me. I don't think I am the only one that feels that darn way, but still this marriage is slowly coming it's end. What's there to hope for, we would eventually go our separate ways and I would
