ROMANCE: Billion Dollar Question (BWWM Billionaire Bad Boy Romance) (African American Alpha Mail Order Bride New Adult) (47 page)

All the same, he went to Douglas and checked his pulse. “He’s still alive,” he told Tiffany, who looked visibly relieved, then, abruptly, terrified. “He won’t do anything to you,” Alexei promised. “I’ll see to that.”

 

“What are you going to do with him?” asked Heather.

 

Alexei considered that. He took Douglas’ gun from him and checked to make sure that it was loaded. It was. “I’ll leave that up to Ashley,” he said, offering her the gun. Ashley had more of a stake in all of this, after all. Douglas had taken more from her.

 

Ashley didn’t take the gun. She stood there, rubbing her wrists where they’d been bound, considering her options for a moment. “You have connections, you said?” she asked Alexei. “Your dad is pretty high up in the Russian underworld and all that.”

 

“I’m a big deal back home, yes,” said Alexei with a smile.

 

“Well, let’s take him with us to Russia,” said Ashley.

 

Alexei raised an eyebrow at that. “You’re coming with me to Russia?”

 

“You’ll forgive me if I don’t exactly feel safe staying here.” Ashley motioned to her surroundings, likely indicating the surrounding city as well. “I wouldn’t mind laying low for a while… If you don’t mind.”

 

“Not at all… I suppose that would be the easiest way for us to have that date of ours.”

 

“Excuse me,” said Tiffany.

 

“We’d like to lay low, too,” added Heather.

 

“The more the merrier.” Alexei pulled Douglas over his shoulder and carried him outside. As soon as they were clear of this place, he would

call his father. This was going to take a lot of explaining.

 

 

Chapter 6: First Date

 

Saying Alexei was well off in Russia had been a bit of an understatement. He had been born into money and had only accumulated more during his lifetime. His father hadn’t been thrilled that he had so badly botched a business deal but it was preferable that he hadn’t died over it.

 

What they were going to do with Douglas was a stickier matter. After the disrespect he had shown to their family, they couldn’t just let him get off without due punishment.

 

They hired a private jet back home, but Douglas didn’t make it off the tarmac. They handed him over to the police. With Ashley’s help, they created a money trail that was downright condemning. And, with the connections of Alexei’s family, there was no way he wasn’t going down for this and, at least, a dozen related crimes.

 

Heather and Tiffany did come with him. They were delighted by the jet, having only ridden commercial in the past. They were so thrilled, they tried rather hard to simultaneously renew their memberships in the mile high club with Alexei.

 

It was tempting, but Alexei had other plans. As soon as they landed, he booked Heather and Tiffany a room at a nice hotel. He then made dinner plans for himself and Ashley.

 

Of course, by the time he had checked in with his father, he was pretty worn down. At Ashley’s suggestion, they grabbed a meal to go and took it back to Alexei’s place.

 

Ashley was in awe. Alexei’s home was stupendous. It was a gated estate with gardens and a pool. For such a nice place, he didn’t actually stay there a ton. He spent most of his time on the road while a staff employed by his father kept things up. It was sort of nice to just crash on the coach with Alexei and watch television.
 

Ashley didn’t fall asleep during the movie this time. “Do you mind if I stay here tonight?” she asked as the credits rolled. “I’m still a little shaken.

 

“I have plenty of guest rooms,” Alexei offered, though he was rather hoping Ashley had a different kind of sleep over in mind.

 

She did, it seemed. “Why don’t you take me on a tour then?” Ashley suggested with a sly smile. She leaned forward and pressed a kiss to Alexei’s cheek. He turned his head, and she kissed him on the mouth.

 

Alexei couldn’t help but smile. He kissed her back. Before things could get too hot and heavy, he stood. Taking her by the hand, he led her up the stairs and to his bedroom. He had assumed that’s what she wanted out of a “tour”. Why beat around the bush?

 

Ashley didn’t seem to mind. She unbuttoned her blouse and headed straight for the bed, discarding garments as she went. She had a gorgeous body. With her dark skin and soft curves, she could have been a pin up girl straight out of a different era. She was in nothing but her panties by the time she flopped down on his bed.

 

Alexei shed his own clothes as he closed the space between them. He was a good looking guy and knew it. Women were always telling him as much. He worked out religiously and had a collection of scars from brawling that most people found rugged and appealing.

 

Ashley was no exception. Her gaze softened as it roamed over him, drinking him in.

 

“This is one heck of a first date,” said Ashley, crawling backward until she was pressed against the headboard. “Do you do this with all the ladies?”

 

“Usually,” Alexei admitted, which provoked a glare from Ashley. “Do you?”

 

“I’m not usually a first date kind of girl,” she said. “But after all that’s happened… I feel like I’ve earned this.”

 

“There’s no shame in rewarding yourself.” Alexei took Ashley’s knees and pulled them over his own shoulders.

 

Ashley gave a shriek of delight that turned to a moan as he removed her panties and began exploring her with his tongue. Alexei’s hands followed the shape of her thighs as he probed deeply.

 

Ashley arched her back, moving her hips against his mouth. She gasped. Alexei felt her legs tighten around him. If she had spent any nights with Douglas, clearly he had left much to be desired in this department.

 

Alexei licked her a while longer before letting her go. Ashley objected at first, but then saw what he was reaching for. She helped him with the condom. She fumbled a bit, over eager. They both got it on. Alexei wasted no time after that. He pushed himself inside her.

 

Ashley gave another moan. She laid back on the bed and hooked her legs around him again. Her hands found Alexei’s and guided them to her breasts. He squeezed them as he thrust, taking his time.

 

Usually, when Alexei had sex, it was a fast, often drunken, affair. He took this slow. He found a steady rhythm and kept it, listening to her shallow breathing and occasional gasp. It was hypnotic. It could have been minutes or hours until neither of them could take it anymore.

 

Ashley came before Alexei did. He finished and dropped to the mattress beside her, breathless and covered in a sheen of sweat.

 

Neither of them said anything, but the shared sentiment was clear enough. As far as first dates went, this had been a pretty good one.

Epilogue

 

Ashley never did develop the skills of a criminal mastermind. She did, however, have an excellent mind for numbers. She quickly proved herself to be invaluable to Alexei. The girl was a genius when it came to moving money around. That might have been why Alexei’s father was pleased when he announced his intention of proposing to her.

 

He made plans to take her out to the restaurant they had first gotten taken out from after arriving in Russia. He tried to make it sound like a casual date night. Maybe he did too good of a job at this. When Ashley showed up for the date, it was with Tiffany and Heather in tow.

 

They had never gone back to the US. Alexei had made sure they had a place to live and set them up with desk jobs at one of the businesses his father owned. The language barrier had prompted them to bond with Ashley. It was an odd friendship, but Alexei didn’t much mind it… Though he would really rather they weren’t here for his proposal.

 

Tiffany and Heather never stopped talking amongst themselves the whole time. Even so, Alexei decided to go through with it. When dessert came, he got down on one knee.

 

Ashley shrieked, a hand flying over her mouth.

 

“Oh my God,” Tiffany said before Ashley could answer. “This is perfect!”

 

“Shh,” hissed Heather.

 

Alexei tried to ignore them, but the seconds ticked past and Ashley still hadn’t answered.

 

“I know we have a pretty good business relationship. And I know I have a history of keeping relationships casual, but if you’ll just give me a chance-”

 

Ashley shook her head, causing Alexei’s heart to drop momentarily. “No. I mean- It’s not that… It’s just. Alexei, I’m pregnant. I was going to tell you tonight. The girls came along for moral support, I…”

 

Alexei got up off of his knee and hugged her. He’d always imagined being horrified by this kind of news. Instead, he couldn’t have been more excited. “So, yes?”

 

“Da,” said Ashley, rather awkwardly trying Russian on for size. “Of course!”

 

A New Chapter

A Mail Order Bride Romance

 

This deliciously dirty story is a part of Susan Fleming’s super-charged, highly lewd collection of love and lust, written in 2015. Those who attempt to steal any part of this goldmine and take it as their own risk being a fiery, hot death from a hunk bearing copyright notices—and she’s not about to play with you.

 

 

This is a work of fiction—although we wish that people like this really existed, it’s nothing more than a figment of a very, very overactive imagination. Any resemblance to someone you know, a place you love or a thing you hold dear to your heart is nothing more than a craving in your heart that these carnal desires and actions were true!

 

 

It goes without saying that this book oozes with erotic sex appeal, and is filled to the rafters with a smorgasbord of acts that you certainly wouldn’t tell your grandmother about. Bodice-ripping, panty-dropping and glasses-steaming, the scenes contained herein are wickedly naughty!

 

 

Although all the saucy characters are flirting with forbidden desires and sometimes taking the naughty fruit they really shouldn’t be, all are consenting adults over the age of 18 and not blood-related. What they are is passionate and eager to explore their carnal desires all day long.

 

 

In short, this book is going to get you very, very hot!
