What will happen when Jesse's twin brother decides to have her for himself? Join me as we go on this journey of lust, love and war.
Melissa sat on the seat with her back leaning over. She felt like she was in a dream land as she listened to the gentleman in front of her. She had just made up her mind to be a surrogate two days ago because of the challenges she was facing, so she submitted her details on a newsletter to be contacted for the job.
This morning after she had breakfast, she received a call from an unknown number. She was informed on the other end that a billionaire was looking for her services.
When she had gotten to know it was from the Wyke's family, she was intrigued. But she didn't know still which one of the grandson's she was supposed to work for.
So here she was now, after some few hours seated in a well known restaurant with one of the hottest men in town. When she had gotten into the restaurant with him by her side, a lot of daggers called eyes were thrown in her direction. But she didn't mind at all and she kept her head high.
" You will have to marry me Melissa." He said, looking at her with no emotions. He didn't like the idea of marrying her but judging by what she carried, he was already under a spell in her sexual aura.
She looked at him like he was crazy.
" I am not looking for a husband gentleman." She told him, as she sat up straight. " I am only a surrogate, not a wife material."
His face contoured an amused expression and he said, " Of course not, I'm not asking for a life long relationship. It's only temporary."
" Temporary?" She said, shaking her head at him.
This was not happening, she was not ready to be tied down even for a month to a man in the name of marriage.
" Yes, temporary." He replied, his index finger touching his moustache.
" It's still the same. Temporary or permanent are same thing. I am not ready to walk down the aisle. I'm not."
" I thought you would be jumping around with joy? Several women would be glad to be in this position I am offering you."
She shook her head, he was not just getting it. She may be a surrogate and him a man of her fantasy, but she would not just jump into marriage for the sake of it.
What would happen tomorrow?
" I am not other women. I am Melissa Mark, and that makes me different." She said, her hands coming to lean on the table between them.
" But there are offers of course. You will be able to go out with some things, after the baby is born of course. I could give you enough money that will last you a life time, after all you will be my baby mama. Think about it."
With one hand running through her hair, she closed her eyes as contemplated on his offer.
Was she to agree or not?
What if he reneged on his offer?
" What guarantee are you giving me to be sure you won't go back on your word?" She said, as she faced him once again. She knew she didn't want to walk down the aisle with him. Her only wish was to go down there with her husband, a man that would marry her with no conditions other than love.
But then again she needed money asap, that's why she was seated at this table with him in the first place.
" There will be a contract signed between us of course, and you will get to read it through before signing."
" Okay." She said, her hands waving in the air. " But first I would like something to drink."
" Oh my bad! I forgot about that." He said, before turning to call the waiter.
The waiter came running to them and he ran back to get what they both ordered.
Melissa said at the assorted fish placed before her and swallowed. It had been a long time she had something like this, and thanks to her future baby's daddy she would be getting plenty of it.
She waited till the waiter was done pouring their drink before she took a gulp of it. When she looked up from her glass, she met his eyes on her. Gush of goosebumps rushed down her before she looked down immediately.
" You should eat it now that it is hot." He said, pointing at her plate. " And I know how hungry you must be now."
" I am not hungry, thanks for the concern." She said, before her tummy made a growling sound. Her cheeks burned with embarrassment and she knew just how red her cheeks would be.
" Hmmm, you just got exposed." He said, as he smirked at her. He knew just how embarrassed she would be and he couldn't help but give a throttle laugh.
She looked around and saw other couples looking at them. A lot of eyes filled with jealousy stared back at her and she looked away immediately.
It was enough that she was embarrassed, and she knew they heard it too for the waiter shouted next,
" Do you need another plate ma'am?" He said, waving his hands from where he was.
Just look at the distance, she thought.
" No, I'm okay."
" Now eat up so we could leave this place."
" You can leave without me, you know?" She said, spooning a mouthful into her mouth.
" Yes, I know." He replied, his eyes watching the way the food passed through her. He so envied it right now, he wished he could do the same to this gorgeous woman in front of him.
" But if we are going to married, we need to do do in a romantic manner."
" Because of the paparazzi, you mean?"
" Yes."
" You can take down any information from the technology system. I know you can."
" But it will take some time. And I am not going to risk grandfather seeing us like this."
" It's alright, for I am done now. See." She said, while showing him her plate.
