Ophelia’s POV "Wait, let me get this straight. Your employer proposed a juicy offer for you to be a live-in caregiver to him pending the time his daughter comes to get him but you are considering it. Why?" Ava asked as she stood up from where she was previously seated to sit next to me and place a reassuring hand on my back.Yeah, you guessed right. I had formulated another great lie to Ava to ask for her opinion on Ryan's offer to me. Technically, it wasn't really a lie because I was likely going to move into Ryan's mansion if I accepted his offer, and I'd be a caregiver to his cock, so yeah, it was a sort of white lie.Currently, Ava and I were inside the dressing room at the strip club. I conversed with her as I watched her get dressed in front of the mirror. I had an off day, so I was free to sloth around for a while before I left for the hospital to pay my dad my usual daily visit."Yes, I don't really know about it. I mean I've paid up dad's medical bills and I don't need the
Ryan’s POV I scrolled through my phone as irritation spiced with a dash of anger brewed inside me. I poked my inner cheek with my tongue in a bid to prevent myself from getting irked.It had been a week and two days since I offered Ophelia the proposal to be my sex slave, but I still had not gotten a phone call or a text from Salvador to get her response.Inwardly, I regretted not getting her contact on the day we met at the strip club, and I knew Salvador would ramble on about being a professional boss if I asked him for her phone number, so I was stuck with blaming myself as I couldn't do anything else.I didn't want to seem like I was too desperate to own her, or like I was so obsessed with her by placing calls and sending messages to Salvador to ask him if she had said anything to him, even though I knew I'd be the first person to learn of it if Ophelia had gotten in contact with him.I dropped my phone on the table with a sigh, as I decided to indulge myself with the thought of
Ophelia’s POV I winced in discomfort as the rays of sunlight seeped through the curtains, and shone on my face. I rolled over to the other side, with my eyes still squeezed shut, not wanting to move an inch from the warm and extremely soft bed that I was laying on.I sighed in respite when the intensifying light of the sun reduced on my face as I smiled to myself.I was just a wink closer to falling back to sleep when I heard a loud knock on the door, which made an exasperated groan leave my lips.I had to suppress the urge to snap at whoever was behind the door, as I fluttered my eyes open and yawned.Afterward, I rolled off the bed with sleep-clouded eyes and fell on my butt with a gentle thud which made me let out a disgruntled grunt.The fluffy beige-colored rug on the floor did well to alleviate the pain I should have felt for being so careless.Then, I got up from the floor, glanced across the room with hooded eyes as I scratched my nape and yawned tiredly again. The realizati
Ryan’s POV "It's a pleasure to finally have you as a business partner, Ryan," The elderly president of Moreno Softwares, Damon Moreno said to me as we shook hands, and I bowed to him in courtesy."Same here, Damon. I hope we remain partners for a long time," I replied, with a smile which he mirrored and nodded.Damon Moreno, though forty-three years older than me, was one of my most-trusted business partners in the software business, and I had invested some millions in his company some days ago to seal our newly-founded partnership."By the way, did you hear that Fernandez is hosting the annual charity gala this year?" Damon asked as I walked him to the entrance of the company where his driver was waiting with his car."Fernandez? The brat whose father died a couple of months ago?" I replied with a question of mine, and Damon nodded in affirmation which made me scoff.The brat was going to have squandered his dad's hard-earned wealth before the year ended with how reckless he was cur
Ophelia’s POV "Ophelia, are you okay?" Jason asked me when he noticed I had remained unmoving and frozen after Ryan left the living room.I concealed my fear, and nodded to him with a small smile, "Yes, I am,""I'm going to see what Ryan needs, I'll be right back," I told Jason and patted his shoulder before I trekked to the staircase, and climbed it with my heart in my mouth.It was obvious that Ryan was mad at me or at something I did to him, and no matter how hard I tried to rummage my thoughts to think of what I could have done, I just couldn't place a finger on it.With a deep exhale, I knocked on the door and waited for him to usher me in."Come in," I heard him gruff, and that only made me more scared as the thought of running into my room and bolting it from inside to hide from Ryan's wrath struck me but I shook the thought away and pushed the door open."You c-called me," I stammered as I stood with my hands clasped in my front, and at a reasonable distance away from Ryan wh
Ophelia’s POV Immediately, I flung the door to my bedroom open, I bounded right into the bathroom to throw up everything I had just swallowed. It got to a point when I just started dry heaving as I had puked out the entire contents of my stomach.I burst into tears as the stale odor of my vomit filled the air, coupled with the all-too-familiar taste of Ryan's cum that was still present on my tongue.At that moment, I wanted nothing more than to wipe myself off the surface of the earth.I had given up on everything before it even started.If I could, I would jump into a lagoon or lay on the railway tracks to leave the world but the thought of my dad, couped up in the hospital bed, and in terrible pain made me reluctantly shrug the decision off.The monster–Ryan had already paid me for my services, and it wouldn't be ethical for me to just leave like that.Even though I doubted he'd even feel bad if I die. The man was clearly heartless, seeing how he had talked to me while he was doing
Ophelia’s POV "Yeah, alright. As if you don't have a crush on Dylan. Stop lying to yourself, Ava," I scoffed with my phone held against my ear as I arranged my freshly-washed clothes into the walk-in closet."No, of course not. Eww, I don't like that guy, he acts too aloof and most importantly, he is a bully. Have you forgotten how wicked he was to me in high school?" Ava retorted, and I could picture her prancing around her bedroom, with flushed cheeks as she spoke about him."Okay, since you said so, milady. I won-" I was cut short by a knock on the door, and I huffed in irritation as I walked to the door and flung it open.It was one of Ryan's maids."Good morning, Miss Ophelia. Master has requested your presence in his study," She informed me before I could hang up on Ava.Fuck, the maid had blown my cover.My boss, according to my lies, was an incontinent old man who could only speak and eat. He couldn't walk or do any hectic actions, and he'd definitely not be able to go to a s
Ophelia’s POV On one hand, one of them was literally yanking me backward with my hair, in the guise of wanting my hair to look perfect and enthralling, while on the other, some sharp instruments–but not too sharp, were being shoved under my nail plate, and into my nail bed.How the hell do rich people live like this? It felt like my toes were about to be yanked off my feet but I couldn't utter a peep, so I just withstood the pain by pursing my lips into a thin line."Wow, Miss. Your skin is so smooth, looks like you won't need waxing," The bossy woman said, and I just chuckled awkwardly as I had no idea of how to respond.They made me flutter my eyes shut as they rallied around to put me in a dress, and also place jewelry on me. Soon, the tugging and pulling on my face and hair stopped as the room became silent.It was then I realized that they had left just like they had arrived; stealthily like a thief in the night while my eyes were still flickered closed.They could have at least
