Chapter Nine
“You want to spend Thanksgiving together?” Elizabeth asked.
“Yes. We can go to my apartment. I’ll buy the turkey. I’m thinking one breast seeing as it’s only going to be the two of us.”
She glanced around the coffee shop as Daniel tried to tempt her into spending the next holiday with him. Not that it was all that hard to do. She loved spending time with him, and in the past couple of weeks, not a day had gone by that she’d not seen him.
So much for keeping her distance, and attempting to have her heart intact. He seemed constantly determined to break down her walls, and she was finding it harder not to develop even more feelings for him.
“You’re not going away or to your parents’?”
“I want to spend my time away from the office with you. We can watch a few movies, play a few board games. All I know is I want to spend that time with you, no one else.”
Her parents hadn’t been big on celebrating anything, and she couldn’t recall sharing a meal. They tended to have meals they could stick in the microwave for a couple of minutes, and it wasn’t exactly a great experience.
“I’d like that.”
“We’ll cook together. Don’t worry. I won’t make you go naked or anything.”
She chuckled.
His cell phone went off, and he cursed. “I’ve got to head back to the office. It’s a date though, right?”
“It is.”
He got up, dropping her a kiss. “Don’t work ’til late.”
“I won’t.”
Before she could tell him any more plans, she watched him leave.
Instead of waiting until her shift started, she went out back, leaving her coat and jacket, to grab an apron. For the rest of the day, she didn’t really have time to think about Thanksgiving, or how close to falling in love with Daniel she was becoming.
She did her work, smiling at their customers, even Billy, who hadn’t stopped visiting the coffee shop with his friends. He no longer tried to get her to date, which she liked, and she pretty much ignored him when the time came for it.
By the end of her shift, she was tired, but the long trek to the hospital was needed. She never lived a life of luxury. She didn’t need fine things in life, so with the extra money that Daniel paid her, she’d saved enough to pay for her hospital expenses. She wanted to pay that one particular bill as she hated it hanging over her head.
Entering the main reception, she got the directions to the billing department, and waited as they got her final bill.
She held her bankcard ready to pay for it.
“Your bill is all settled, Miss Walker.”
“I’m sorry?”
“You have no outstanding funds on your account. The bill was settled back in October.”
She tapped her finger on the counter. “Who paid the outstanding amount?”
The woman clicked on the keyboard and smiled. “Mr. Clark. At the same time, he made a very sizeable donation as well.”
“I can’t pay the amount myself?” she asked.
“No. I’m afraid not.”
Seeing that there wasn’t anything she could do, Elizabeth left the hospital, confused. It was cold, and she pulled her cell phone out, calling him.
“Hello, baby, miss me already?”
“I need to see you. Can I stop by your penthouse, or the apartment?” She never referred to it as their place or our place, always the apartment, or his apartment.
“Is everything okay?”
“Yeah, it is. Can I see you?” No, it’s really not okay.
“I’m still at the office.” He gave her the address, and she promised to be there soon.
She didn’t bother to get a taxi, as she knew a couple of shortcuts through several parks that would get her to where she needed to be.
Even though it was bitingly cold, she really needed to clear her head. Rubbing at her temples, she tried not to groan.
One of the reasons she was on that damn site was so she could pay off her debt in one lump sum while also making smaller payments. Her apartment was paid in advance.
Entering his office, she made her way to the main reception, telling them Daniel’s name, and saying that he was expecting her.
Of course, they put a call through to make sure. She must look a mess with her rather worn jacket, but she didn’t care. It kept most of the cold out, and she didn’t see the need to waste money.
She didn’t take the elevator as she wanted to walk the stairs, taking her a little longer before she saw him.
There were several floors, and by the time she was at his floor, she was a little out of breath, but with the cold, she wasn’t sweating, not yet.
She saw a small office that held about five people, all talking to each other, and she saw at the end of a long hall, Daniel’s name.
Once she was near his door, she saw his office was huge, massive in fact, and his walls were completely covered with books along one side. On the other, she saw many certificates, along with a lot of pictures.
“What took you so long?” Daniel asked, standing up from behind his desk.
She stepped inside his office, and smiled. “I walked.”
“You walked from the coffee shop?”
“The hospital.” She tucked some hair behind her ear. “It wasn’t that bad. I took some shortcuts through a couple of the parks. It wasn’t so bad.”
“Okay, please tell me I didn’t hear that?” He closed his office door and stepped in front of her, cupping her face at the same time.
“Which part?”
“You putting your life in danger by taking shortcuts through parks where you could have been beaten, raped, kidnapped.”
She frowned, seeing the potential danger there. “Okay, I see what you mean.”
He silenced her with a kiss, and she moaned, gripping his shoulders, not wanting to let him go. Breaking the kiss, he stroked her cheek. “Don’t do that again. If you need a car I’ll get you one. I don’t want you to put your life at risk again.”
“I won’t. I promise. I don’t need a car.”
“Why were you at the hospital?” he asked.
“I got sick some time ago, and it was one of the factors that drove me to Sugar Daddy. I’ve saved enough money, and I went to pay the bill only to find out that you’ve paid it.”
“Yes, I did. What of it?”
“How?”
“I phoned them, paid your bill, and made a donation.”
She nibbled her lip, liking the way he stroked her cheek. Even after all this time, his touch affected her greatly.
“You really didn’t need to do that. You’ve been paying me, and I’ve been saving to pay that.”
“Now you don’t have to worry about either.”
She smiled. “I can use it on my tuition.”
“I paid that as well. Your education is paid up until you graduate.”
“I don’t need the money anymore?” she asked.
“No. You don’t.”
She pulled away from him, and turned her back to look at his long wall of books. “That was the only reason I went to that site, Daniel.”
He moved up behind her, wrapping his arms around her waist and nuzzling her neck. “I like taking care of you. You don’t need to worry about anything.”
“I don’t want you to keep paying me.” She turned in his arms. “I’ve got enough money.”
“I really don’t want to get into this. I’m not going to stop this between us. If you don’t want me to pay you, then I won’t.” Slowly, he pushed her up against the desk. “I’ve got more than enough money. You didn’t need to deal with that, and I wanted to take care of you. The moment you entered this agreement with me, you became mine, no matter what you think. I take care of what’s mine. The sex, the website be damned. You’re mine, Elizabeth.”
With that, he took possession of her lips, leaving no doubt in her mind that she belonged to him.
****
Daniel pushed Elizabeth’s jacket off her shoulders and placed her bag onto the floor. Sinking his fingers into her hair, he ravished her mouth. His cock hardened, needing to claim her, to show her with his body exactly who she belonged to.
“I’m not giving this up,” he said.
Lifting her onto his desk, he spread her thighs and stepped between them. Pressing his dick against her stomach, he let her feel exactly how much he wanted her, and he had no intention of giving her up.
What had started as just sex had become something else.
He wanted to take care of her.
Paying for her hospital bills, followed by her tuition, had meant everything to him. No one took care of her, and he’d wanted to be the person to do it.
Flicking the button of her jeans, he began to tug them down her body. She lifted up, allowing him to take them off. She kicked off her sneakers, and he pressed a hand to her wet core.
Her panties were already damp. “This is mine, Elizabeth. You’re wet because you want my dick.”
“Yes.”
Tearing her panties, he slid a finger between her lips, finding her clit. She gasped, arching up to his touch. Gliding his finger down, he filled her tight cunt, relishing her cries as he began to fuck her with his digit.
Adding a second one, he watched the pleasure cross over her face. “I’m going to fuck your pussy right here on this desk, and every time I’m sitting here, I’m going to remember exactly how sexy it is to see you come.”
She pushed his hand out of the way, and went to her knees before him, releasing his pants.
He groaned as she pulled out his cock and began to stroke the length, going from the base up to the tip, and back down again.
Pre-cum already leaked out of the head, and he watched her lick it up before taking him into her mouth, sucking his cock deep into her throat.
Daniel couldn’t give this up. Not once. She meant too much to him, and he wanted her. In fact, when he couldn’t be near her, he craved her even more. She fired his blood and made him want so many things.
There were times that his own feelings surprised him.
Wrapping her hair around his fingers, he pumped into her mouth, going as deep as he could go.
She swallowed him down, and he kept up his thrusts.
He didn’t want to finish in her mouth though. Tugging her head off his cock, he released her hair and lifted her up, placing her back on the desk. He couldn’t wait another second, and finding her core, he slid his cock inside and thrust as deeply as she could take him. Pushing everything off his desk, he leaned her back and watched as he pulled out of her, only to slam back inside her, going deeper still.
Spreading her thighs open so that her legs were wrapped around him, he slid a finger across her clit, feeling her cunt squeeze him.
“Your pussy is so damn tight. No matter how many times I fuck you, you still amaze me at how good it feels. This is only part of what I want from you, Elizabeth. You get under my skin, drive me crazy, and I can’t stand the thought of another man ever getting a taste of what belongs to me.” He slammed inside her, returning his hands to her hips to grip her as he fucked her hard, ramming his cock deep inside, taking her harder than ever before.
It wasn’t enough. He needed her to come.
Pulling out of her, he knelt before her, opening the lips of her pussy so that he could lick her clit. He was hungry for the taste of her pretty cunt.
Flicking his tongue across her clit, he slid down, plunging inside her, only to come out and move back up to her nub.
Using his fingers, he fucked her as he took her clit, sucking and biting on the flesh. She screamed his name, her pussy getting even wetter with every passing second.
He was so fucking addicted to her. Never did he imagine spending this much time with a woman, or feeling this possessive when it came to her.
Daniel couldn’t take a step back. He’d tried to do that.
She called to him, and he’d stopped fighting it.
Elizabeth came, and he licked her cream, prolonging her orgasm until she begged.
He couldn’t wait. Standing between her legs, he thrust home, pounding inside her, wishing they were at his place so he could have her screaming down the walls.
Over and over he slid inside her, finding his own release in her heat, filling her up, his cock pulsing his cum in deep as she milked him for every last drop.
Neither of them spoke, and he didn’t move away as he knew without a doubt that he’d want to see his cum spilling from her lips, to push it back inside her.
“That was … intense,” she said.
He smirked. “I won’t pay you anymore, but that doesn’t mean we’re not together.”
“What does it mean?” she asked.
“I still want you. This doesn’t stop, and with how wet your pussy is, I don’t think for a second you want to stop either.” She didn’t say anything. “Do you want to stop?”
She shook her head. “No.”
“Good.”
“You don’t do relationships.”
“Let’s not put a label on this then. You’re mine. I’ll buy you nice things, and fuck you until you can’t think straight, and at the end of the day, I’ll be the only man that provides for you.”
She licked her lips. “Okay. We’re like boyfriend and girlfriend.”
“Yeah, I guess we are.” He waited for the disappointment to swamp him. It didn’t. “Are you going to start getting jealous of me, demanding my time and shit like that?”
“Nothing’s going to change. Only, I don’t have to worry about that website thing.” He saw she bit her lip and recognized the worry on her face.
“What’s wrong?”
“That site. I posted my picture and details without even thinking. What if it’s still up there?”
“I looked into it. Only people who could search the website could see you. It wasn’t just for anyone, and there’s security there. None of your details were handed over, and once you terminated your profile, all of it was removed. No one will know. Just you and me.” He stroked her cheek. “You’ve got nothing to worry about, baby. I’ll take care of you.”
He’d already done all the necessary checks and contacted the relevant people to make sure that there wasn’t any way someone would ever be able to check out other details. If he’d not been sure of the details, he wouldn’t have agreed to it. When he first entered the site, they’d asked for a breakdown of his likes and dislikes, and only then had it given him a few options of women to choose from. He wasn’t worried, and he didn’t want her to be. “Don’t worry.”
“I won’t. I know a couple of girls who’ve done it back at the campus. I overheard a big argument about it. One of them was accusing the other of being nothing but a whore, and anyway, she pointed out that it’s a means to an end.”
There was a knock at the door.
“I’ll be out in a moment,” Daniel said, shouting to be heard.
He eased out of Elizabeth’s pussy, and paused when he saw his creamy cum at the entrance of her pussy. Reluctantly, he grabbed some tissues from a box he always kept on hand, cleaning her up. The panties he’d destroyed, but her jeans were more than fine.
Once they were clean and decent, he pulled her against him, kissing her lips.
“Don’t think for a second you’re getting away. Go to the sofa, study, and I’ll take you home when I’m done.”
“I can catch a cab.”
“I’ll take you home. It’s getting really late now.”
“Do you always work this late?”
“When it’s needed.” He couldn’t resist kissing her again before going to his office door.
One of the interns was waiting. She had a couple of books. Standing outside, he pointed out the relevant law references she needed, and closed the door, telling them he’d be leaving shortly and it was time for them to start packing up.
There was a big case going, and he’d offered to stay behind to keep an eye on the interns who’d been brought on to help with it. The case was for one of his colleagues, but each of the main lawyers always helped throughout each relevant case.
The company relied on reputation and efficiency.
Competition was fine, but not when it came to the company name.
Glancing over at Elizabeth, he knew he was in trouble. Already things with her had gone too far, but he didn’t see any way of changing that.
He didn’t want to change it.
