He thrust inside
me a few more times before he was coming with me as he grunted, “Fuck… Mia!”

As our bodies
started to cool down and our breathing returned to normal, He pulled out of me
and laid down beside me in bed. I crawled over to him and planted a tender kiss
on his mouth. I just needed to keep in some kind of contact with him. It felt
like a need, a necessity, for me be touching him at all time.

I released his
mouth and lay my head on his chest. His arm came out to caress gentle circles
across my back. We stayed silent for a few minutes, just basking in the beauty
of this moment.

Then the real
world decided to make an appearance.

There was a knock
on the door. My entire body froze wondering who was going to catch me in
Sebastian’s bed. What if it was Vanessa? She would think I was just like her,
that I had no respect for myself. That I was willing to share Sebastian like
the rest of them.

Please, Lord don't
let it be Vanessa.

A few moments
later, after Sebastian didn’t respond to the first knock, the knocking started
again. Then the double doors to Sebastian’s room opened and in walked a
beautiful blonde woman.

It was Darcy,
Sebastian’s wife. Her head was down, reading something on the tablet in her
hands, so she hadn’t seen us yet.

I quickly grabbed
the sheet at the edge of the bed and covered my naked body as Darcy started to
speak.

“It’s ten in the
morning, Sebastian. It is really not like you to sleep in, especially when you
have so much work to catch up on today. Get up before I make you…” Darcy
stopped speaking as she looked up and noticed me in Sebastian’s bed.

Sebastian was
still next to me, his arm was placed over me, and he looked pissed off.

“What. The. Fuck…
Since when do you barge right into my bedroom, Darcy? If I don’t answer the
door, you don’t just fucking walk in.” He spoke in a tone I had never heard him
use before.

Darcy composed her
facial features before speaking, “I’m sorry Sebastian. I was worried when you
didn’t show up to our meeting this morning. We have a very lucrative business
deal to discuss before I am to bring it to the board of Daddy’s company. When
you didn’t show I came right over. Then you didn’t answer your door so I came
right in.” She glanced at me and then at Sebastian, “When did you start
sleeping with the staff in your bedroom?”

What the hell did
that mean? I look over at Sebastian to see if he could shed some light on what
Darcy just said but I quickly avert my glaze. Sebastian’s face is murderous.

“My personal life
is none of your fucking business. Where I have sex and whom I fuck is none of
you business. Got that?” He spat out, glaring at his wife.

His wife.

What the hell was
I thinking? I just slept with a married man. I just gave my body, bared my
soul, to a married man. A man, who just referred to me in front of his wife, as
a woman he
fucked.
I was nothing special to him. Again, what the hell
was I thinking?

Before I could get
up and remove myself from this situation, Darcy spoke. “I got it. I would have
never barged in here if I knew you had someone in your bed. It’s just… you
never have anyone in here. I thought it was a safe bet, but I know now for the
future.”

She smiled towards
me and then to Sebastian, “What time should I expect you to come down to your
office? We have to go over these documents Sebastian.”

Sebastian’s face
softened towards her as he said, “I’ll be down in half an hour.”

Darcy nodded
towards him and then smiled apologetically towards me before quickly leaving the
room, shutting the door behind her.

Sebastian’s arm
was still across my body and he pulled his free hand though his hair a few
time. He looked... lost for words.

“I’m so sorry
about that. I guess I should have locked the door last night huh?” He let out a
soft laugh but then his face went serious as he took in my expression. Nothing
about this was funny to me.

I slowly started
to get up from the bed. I had the urge to bolt out of here and never see
Sebastian again. I kept the satin sheet around my body as I searched the room
for my clothes. Spotting my panties at the foot of the bed, I went for those
first. I urgently slipped them on and located my bra next. I was finding each
item of my clothing and putting them on as fast as possible.

“You look like you’re
in a hurry to get out of here,” Sebastian said curiously.

“Uh huh… yep, I
am. This was a huge mistake. I should have never come in here with you last
night,” I said as I was frantically searching for the remainder of my clothing.

 I found my
shorts last and was pulling them past my hips when Sebastian jumped out of bed
and headed towards me. He reached me and gripped my hip with one hand while
lifting my chin with the other so I was forced to make eye contact with him.

“A mistake?
Nothing about last night was a mistake.” The look in his eyes was sincere and
he moved his hand from my chin to caress my jaw. “How we started our morning
wasn’t a mistake either. The only mistake was how Darcy barged in and ruined
our perfect morning together.”

Right… his wife… I
somehow keep forgetting this man is married.

I let out a huff,
“Yes, lets talk about your wife. I slept with you and your fucking married!” I
was shouting now and probably being irrational but I didn’t care. “Even worse I
knew you were married and still did it. We all did. Oh my God… Oh My God… She
must hate me.”

I was
hyperventilating right now. My chest was tightening and Sebastian’s grip on my
hip got tighter as he released my jaw with his other hand.

“I told you Mia,
It’s not a real marriage. It never has been.”

He was trying to
justify what we just did. I wanted to believe him, I wanted to just forget
about him being married and continue with… well whatever this was.

I needed to
understand. I needed some kind of explanation.

“That makes no
sense Sebastian. You need to explain to me how you can be married but it means
nothing. Marriage is a sacred act, you must have meant something to each other
at one point,” I whispered to him. Somewhere in the past few seconds I calmed
down.

He looked at me,
eyes squinting, as if trying to decide something by looking at my face. He must
have gotten his answer because he dropped his hands from me and took a step
back.

This was it. This
was the moment I was dreading. He was done with me. I was just a fuck to him.
Maybe at one point he thought it was more but I questioned his marriage. It was
probably the deal breaker between us.

Out of nowhere he
said, “Have dinner with me tonight. I have meetings during the day but I want
to come home to you tonight. I want to eat dinner with you, share with you how
my day went, and listen to how your day went. I’ll explain to you about Darcy.
I’ll tell you everything Mia. Just say you will have dinner with me tonight.”

I was stunned. One
second I’m thinking that what happened last night is over, the next he is
asking me out to dinner. I want to go. I need answers. I also can’t say goodbye
to him yet. He is the first person to make me feel alive in a long time.

I keep my head
down as I respond, “Okay, Ill have dinner with you.”

I finished putting
on my shorts and look up at him. “I have to get to work. Apparently I’m three
hours late.” I walked to the doors of his bedroom to leave.

The day away from
each other will be good for us. I need to think and he should too.

I place my hand on
the doorknob and speak without turning towards him, “Sebastian?”

“Yes,” He says to
me softly.

“Promise me you’ll
think about what your doing before tonight. Last night meant something to me. I
have never willingly given my body to someone. If this… If this isn’t going to
go somewhere, then I need it to end now before I get hurt. My heart can’t take
anymore heartache.” With this statement I walked out the doors of his bedroom.
I didn’t look back to see his reaction.

I rush over to the
employee quarters and into my bedroom. I change into my uniform in two minutes
flat. I drag a comb through my hair, tie it back at the base of my neck, and
brush my teeth. Feeling refreshed, I am ready to start my day of housework. The
physical work will help keep my mind off of Sebastian.

I walk back out
the door of my room and through the kitchen where Vanessa, Rachel, and another
woman are sitting and eating breakfast. Rachel looks up from her bowl of cereal
but doesn’t say anything to me. I’m glad because I want to go by unnoticed.
Unfortunately Vanessa spots me and I’m not so lucky.

“Look girls,
little miss Mia decided to grace us with her presence. You must have had a wild
night,” she says maliciously to me. “I guess Mr. Price is back to his old ways.
I’ll have to go find him later so I can get the next round. No one rides me
like he does.”

 Vanessa
turns back to her breakfast as if she didn’t just tell me she plans on fucking
Sebastian today.

I feel the anger
start to spread throughout my body. I want to knock her down a few pedestals.
She can’t have Sebastian because he is mine.

“I hate to break
it to you Vanessa but Sebastian is having dinner with me tonight. We have some
things to discuss before he takes me, scratch that, before he fucks me in his
bed. You might want to change your plans for later. I’d hate for your ego to
get crushed.”

I don’t know why I
said it. My sex life is no ones business but she brings out so much rage in me.

I couldn’t help
but notice the smile left her face when I mentioned Sebastian’s bed. Maybe
Darcy was right and he didn’t bring the girls in there.

“You’re’ lying,”
She yells to me.

“Am I? About
what?” I shouldn’t be but I am getting pleasure out of seeing her upset.

“You aren’t going
to fuck him in his bed. He doesn’t bring any women to his room, ever. In fact,
you’re not going to fuck him at all. I’m going to wear him out so much he won’t
have anything left for you tonight.” She was bluffing I could see it in her
eyes.

I wanted to tell
her that I had already had sex with him in his bed, but I couldn’t. I didn’t
want her to know the intimate details of my relationship with him. I already
said too much to her and I felt sick about it. I needed to leave so I was going
to have to let her believe she had won this round.

I turned to leave
the room as I said, “We’ll see.”

I walked back over
to the estate to get my work done for the day.

Tonight was the
night. Sebastian was going to tell me about his wife. Then I needed to make a
decision on if I wanted to have a relationship with this man. I wish this could
be easy but I knew it wouldn’t be.

He has one thing
in his favor before I even hear him out. I was positive now.

I am in love with
Sebastian Price.

Chapter
Eleven

 

The day sped by
and the next thing I knew it was six o’clock and time to get ready for dinner
with Sebastian. He had texted me earlier telling me to meet him in the estate
kitchen at seven for dinner.

Part of me was
nervous to hear what Sebastian had to say. The other part of me had those
exciting butterflies in my stomach, anxious for what the night held.

I rushed to my
room to get ready for the evening. On my bed was a box, wrapped in beautiful
silver paper, and a hand written note on top.

 

Mia,

I
noticed last time you didn’t wear a dress. I thought this time I would get one
for you. I’m looking forward to tonight.

~Sebastian

 

I unwrapped the
box and opened it, pulling out a beautiful baby blue sundress. It was a casual
dress, soft cotton material, and I wouldn’t be able to wear a bra with it, but
I loved it. I went over to my dresser and pulled out a pair of nude lace
panties. I placed them on my bed with the dress and then made my way to my
bathroom to wash up.

The warm shower
water felt amazing on my body. I was still a little sore from my night with
Sebastian. I swear I used muscles I never knew existed. The soreness only
reminded me of my night with him and I couldn’t wait to do it again. I washed
my hair and body, and then I shaved… everywhere. When I was satisfied with my
appearance I turned the water off and hopped out of the shower.

I decided to let
my hair air-dry. I didn’t want to waste the time doing it just for it to look
wild again in a few hours. At least I hoped it would look wild again in a few
hours.

I put some
anti-frizz product in my hair to help it stay under control. Then I put on some
light concealer, mascara, a hint of blush, and strawberry lip-gloss. I walked
back out to my room and pulled my lace panties on. The feel of them against my
skin and what Sebastian would think of them started to turn me on.

Before my thoughts
got away from me, I grabbed the blue sundress and pull it over my head. Once it
was on completely I looked in the mirror. Wow. It hugs my curves in all the
right places and it is very obvious I am not wearing a bra. I beg my nipples to
soften so that Sebastian doesn’t see the evidence of my desire for him. I slip
on a pair of tan wedges and I am ready to go.

I make it into the
kitchen of Sebastian’ s estate with a few minutes to spare. I decide to wait
patiently on a stool by the kitchen counter.

My thoughts take
over as I wait for Sebastian. I start to wonder if I can see a future with
Sebastian. Could I really start a relationship with him? What if he wants to
get married some day?

I picture him in a
tux and me in a white gown under the sunset on his large property. Just
Sebastian, a minister, and me. Yes, I could see myself getting married to him
one day. It may sound crazy, and I haven’t known him very long, but I can’t
turn my back on a connection like the one we have.
