Chapter 1
Janice POV
Seeing how pretty I looked while staring at my reflection in the mirror as I added make-up to my face, I couldn't help the smile that laced up my lips. Being pretty is something to be proud of, especially having a sexy goddess body as me. I'm not bragging, but I didn't really need anyone to tell me that I'm one hella sexy young lady. 5'8 tall, slim with round butt and full chest, long black curly hair, long natural eyelashes, thick eyebrows, sharp jawline, pointed nose, sexy brown eyes, sexy lips that men drools over, and a sweet contagious smile to compliment my look. This has been one of the reasons my client wouldn't stop going crazy about me.
Again, I was getting ready to meet one of my clients, a new one at that. Unlike every other random clients I have, this one was like a big fish for me. We met at the club last night and scheduled to meet today at his penthouse. I didn't get to see his face very well yesterday since it was in the night, but I could tell from the way he was dressed and from the expensive cologne that he was really wealthy, and trust me, I won't take chances as this was a big opportunity for me.
Once I was done getting dressed, I checked myself in the mirror one more time before I finally left the room and headed out to the roadside where I waited for about three to five minutes before I was able to get a cab that took me to my destination.
"You can stop here now," I said to the cabby just before we got to the penthouse I was going to, and he pulled over at the side of the road.
"Thank you," I said to him before he drove off, and I sighed briefly. I took my time to check myself out before I headed to the penthouse, showed the guards what my client asked me to show them, and was led into the house.
My mouth dropped open as soon as I walked on, and trust me, it felt like I wasn't on planet Earth anymore. It was literally my first time being in a house like this, and I couldn't help, but drool.
"Come with me," The guard that led me inside a moment ago said to me after he put a call through to someone, and I nodded my head.
We took the elevator to the fifth floor where we got off and I was led to a room. Since I was always confident, I didn't feel so nervous.
"Go ahead," The man said to me once the door rolled open, and I smiled at him before I walked into the large room, and the door closed behind me.
My mouth dropped open when I walked inside the room, because it looked like another planet on its own. It was thrice as large as my room. The bed looked soft, the room was painted in golden color, the curtains were also golden and they looked extremely expensive. There were two sofas in the room, and a king-sized bed to complement it.
"Where is he?" I mumbled as I looked around since I didn't see the person I was supposed to meet, and just then, the bathroom door opened and he walked inside. My heart stopped beating for seconds as I watched the most handsome man my eyes has ever seen in my twenty-five years of existence. Although I've seen him a couple of times on TV, but it was my first time seeing him in person. He was perfectly built with sexy abs, a broad chest, a chiseled face, a sharp jawline, long eyelashes, thick eyebrows, sexy lips, thick eyebrows, raven hair that was curled on his head, and when he raised his gaze to look at me, my heart dropped at the sparkles in his eyes.
"Why are you staring at me like that? I'm ugly, yeah?" He scoffed as he walked past me, pulling me back to reality, and I scoffed silently. I mean, how the heck could he even ask me that? Ugly? Hell nah!
"I'm sorry... I just got lost," I apologized to him as I turned to find him sitting on the bed.
"Hmm. Let's get down to business. I don't have much time to waste," He uttered with a smirk on his lips as he stared at me.
"By the way, you look sexy," He winked at me, and my heart almost stopped working.
"Let me introduce myself to you. You may need the name to moan later," He winked at me as he stood up to his feet and covered the distance between us.
"My name is Connor Hughes... Connor is moanable, yeah?" He bit my earlobe as he whispered in my ear, and my abdomen twitched as I felt adrenaline pumping hard in my body. Mr. Connor Hughes is the popular CEO of Connor Empire, a company that majors in modeling. We met at the club last night, exchanged numbers after we had a drink together, and scheduled to meet up today, and here we are now.
"I like confident women, you know what I mean, right?" He winked at me as he tucked the strand of hair on my forehead, behind my ear.
"That's the way to the bathroom. Don't keep me waiting and make it snappy," He winked at me once again before he went to sit on the bed, and I nodded before I headed into the bathroom.
"Don't lose focus, Janice. You know why you are here, right? You are here for something important, so don't lose focus," I slapped my cheeks lightly as I looked at my reflection in the mirror, reminding myself what I came here for.
After I showered, I walked back into the room in a white robe.
"So, are you ready now?" He was growing impatient as he stood up to his feet, and trust me, I wasn't surprised. All the clients I ever had were never themselves each time I was around them, and I wasn't expecting him to be an exception.
"I need to take my pill to avoid getting pregnant later. This is what I do always before sex," I said to him, and he slowly nodded his head.
"That's fine," He shrugged, and I nodded my head before I reached for the pill in my bag and threw it inside my mouth, gulping down some water afterward.
"Come here... I will make you feel good," I smiled at him as I ran my fingers down his chest, while making sure I pinched his nipple, one of the sensitive body parts of men, and he reacted to it.
He didn't fail to explore my body, holding my ass, fondling my boobs, and soon, we were on the bed with him on top of me, kissing me roughly as if his life depended on it.
The kiss was slowly growing intense when he suddenly pulled away from me and held his head as he winced in pain.
"Are you ok?" I gasped as I sat up on the bed.
"My head... I'm feeling dizzy," He slapped his forehead lightly, probably to keep himself awake, but I guess it didn't work as he ended up falling flat on the bed and dozed off.
"Wow! That worked pretty fast," I chuckled excitedly before I stood up from the bed and quickly got dressed. I searched the room for his valuables, and I was able to get a few jewelries, and some money from his cabinet.
"Shit! Where is this thing?" I mumbled frustratingly as I searched for his phone hurriedly. Getting caught here was as good as going to jail, and that was the last thing I wanted.
"Damnit!" I cursed under my breath when I couldn't find his phone, running my fingers through my hair. Just then, I heard the sound of a phone buzzing, and I managed to locate it.
'Mom' was displayed on the screen, and I glanced at him sleeping peacefully. Wait! Is that a peaceful sleep? I think I'm crazy. I watched as the call rang and ended. I tried to unlock the phone, but it needed a face ID.
"This is crazy. I don't want to get caught, please," I whined frustratingly as I hurried over to the bed and turned his face up. Although it took a few minutes, I was able to unlock the phone with his face. Went through his chats, and once I was able to find his chats with his assistant, I texted him or her.
'I'm done here, Lucas. Escort her outside' I sent the message to the Lucas guy before I dropped the phone and grabbed my bag, leaving the room afterward.
"Hi!" I smiled at the young man nervously as soon as I stepped out of the room since he was waiting for me there, but he peeped inside instead.
"Where is Mr. Connor?" He asked as he stared at me suspiciously.
"He is in the bathroom," I replied to him, trying hard not to stutter, and he slowly nodded his head even though he didn't look entirely convinced.
"Alright. This way," He finally led me away, following the same route we took here before, and soon, I was out of the penthouse.
"That was close," I released the breath I'd been holding unknowingly, before I picked race, running as fast as my legs could carry me, and soon, I was out of the street.
My name is Janice Ramos, twenty-five years old young lady trying to make ends meet. A jobless young lady that has yet been rejected everywhere I have been to in a bid to find a job, a jobless lady who now depended on men to provide for her poor family. That is who I am.
I finally stopped to catch my breath but then, I saw a truck driving in a full speed toward a woman in her late fifties at the other end of the road, making a call in front of her car. My eyes slowly narrowed in shock, and without thinking twice, I crossed to the other side since there were no vehicles around. Everything happened so fast that I didn't know how I ended up saving the woman as we fell roughly to
the ground, and the truck collided with her car, smashing everything into pieces...
Chapter 2 Connor Hughes POV "Get on your knees and use your fucking mouth, bitch! That's what I'm paying you for," I snapped at the bitch I had picked up from the club earlier to satisfy me on the bed. "You're so huge down there," she licked her lip seductively as she got on her knees and played with my dick, and fuck! It felt so good. Her warm hand wrapped around my slightly erect dick, playing with it while stroking it slowly. "Yeah... Just like that... Yes, just like that," I groaned as I threw my head back and shut my eyes, taking all the pleasure in. My heart skipped and another tight groan forced its way out of my lips when I felt her lips curve around my shaft, and slowly, she took my length into her mouth until she was almost swallowing everything and it felt like... Fuck it! It felt so good. "Shit!" I cursed and bit my lip when she started moving up and down it slowly, spitting on it, twirling her tongue around the shaft, and kissing it like her life depended on it. I've
Chapter 3 Janice POV One week after the incident and still counting. I was expecting Mr. Connor to send the cops after me, but I guess I was lucky since there hasn't been anything like that. The sound of my ringing phone echoed in the room, and I couldn't help the smile that laced up my lips when I saw the caller. It was the woman I saved from getting hit by a truck one week ago. After the incident that day, she gave me her card and asked me to call her, which I did, and guess what? She invited me to her house and she is super wealthy. Her house looked like another planet on its own, and trust me, the image was still living rent-free in my head even after five days of being there. I wished to be there even if it was only once. "Hey, Janice," Her gentle voice sounded through the phone, and I smiled as I sat up on the bed. "Hi, ma'am. How have you been? Are your bruises gone now?" I asked her with concern. Well, I may be a bad person, but I'm still nice, and I knew that. "I'm
Chapter 4 Connor Hughes 'Excuse me, do I know you?' I scoffed angrily and slumped on the bed as her words echoed in my head once again. Making me look like a fool out there was the height of it all. After she stole from me, she think she could get away with it by just pretending not to know who I am? "Ugh!" I groaned as I sank my fingers into my hair, trying to cool off, but it only got worse. The door suddenly burst open, and I sprang up to my feet to see Mom inside. "What the hell was that, Connor? What has come over you?" She snapped at me angrily as she glared at me, and I huffed unbelievably. "Mom, what are you saying?" I asked even though I knew what she was on about. "What am I saying? How could you embarrass my guest like that? The whole family owes that young lady everything for saving my life. I would've been gone by now if not for her..." "I know that Mom..." "Then what the hell was that? Accusing her of stealing something from you. Where the hell could you
Chapter 5 Janice POV I got dressed for the date I'm having with Carl tonight. After the incident that day, me and Carl have kept in touch, and we've hung out for some time. I was able to take care of Connor, and I know if I continue to deny knowing him, everything will be cool. My phone beeped, and I checked to see that it was a text from Carl. 'I'm waiting for you outside' After reading his message, I checked myself out in the mirror one more time to be sure I was good to go, leaving my apartment afterward. I live in a one-room flat apartment since I lived alone. I soon got outside where I met his car parked at the front of my house, and I got in. "Did I keep you waiting?" I asked him as I fastened my seatbelt, but he shook his head as he smiled at me. "Not really. You look gorgeous," He complimented me, and I smiled at him. "Thank you," I replied to him before the drive started. The drive to the fancy restaurant was peaceful and silent, and we soon arrived. Since the
Chapter 6 Two weeks later Connor Hughes "What do you mean, Mom? How could you even ask me to do that?" I scoffed angrily, and she sighed. "Connor, please you need to do this for my sake. We can't just stand her there and show up for the wedding. It won't make any sense, please," She pleaded with me, trying to sound as convincing as she could, but that was the last thing I would do. How the heck could she ask me to stand in as that bitch's groom because Carl ran away? Well, today was supposed to be Carl and Janice's wedding, but the jerk was nowhere to be found now, and they said that he wrote a letter that he was no longer interested in the wedding. "He shouldn't have started this in the first place if he wasn't interested in marrying her, and besides... I'm not your only son, am I? You can ask Chase to stand in as the groom, mom. I'm not interested in that," I stood my ground as I sat on the bed, but I knew she wouldn't give up no matter how much I tried to make him do it.
Chapter 7 Janice POV My heart pounded hard against my chest as I sat on the edge of the bed while listening to the sound of the running shower. Many thoughts ran through my mind, and I couldn't help but shake nervously. My life took another turn for the worse in a space of seconds. "Ugh! What do I do? I can't stay here. He is going to kill me if I stay here as his wife," I mumbled as I ruffled my hair crazily as I sprang up and paced restlessly in the room, thinking of any possible solution, but I couldn't think straight or come up with anything as my head was blank. I hurried over to the door and tried to open it, but it was locked from inside and the key was not even inside. "Damnit!" I cursed under my breath as my heart sank into my stomach. The shower finally stopped running, and I didn't need anyone to tell me that he would be out soon, and that only made me more terrified. As expected, the bathroom door finally opened, but I turned my back to him s
Chapter 8 Connor Hughes "You bastard!" Carl snapped angrily as he sent a punch hard to my face as soon as I walked into the living room, and I scoffed unbelievably as I rolled my eyes. "How dare you bastard! How dare you!" Be roared again as he grabbed me by the collar of my shirt and punched me hard in the face for the second time, but I only smirked at him. "How does it feel, brother? Did you enjoy it, huh?" I smirked at him after I yanked his hands off my collar, adjusting my clothes. "How dare you!" He snapped again as he grabbed my collar again, but this time, I retaliated and punched him hard in the face, sending him staggering back. "What the hell is happening here?" Mom shrieked as she finally showed up with the kids, since Dad traveled immediately after the wedding yesterday. Mom gasped sharply and stopped on her track when she found Carl standing with me. "Carl! Where the hell were you? How dare you run away from your wedding? You were the one that asked her to
Chapter 9 Janice POV I scoffed for the fifth time as I stood in the garden with my hands on my waist. The view here was supposed to be called beautiful, but I couldn't even think of that because of the shit going on in my head. "Ugh! That guy is a real bastard. So this wasn't because of me, but his brother? How could he get me involved, huh?" I mumbled and scoffed because all this doesn't make any sense to me. The sound of the footsteps behind me pulled my attention, and I turned to find the youngest brother. I mean, Chase. We have only talked a few times since I've been coming here even before I moved in yesterday. "Hi, sister-in-law," He smiled at me. I've noticed how different he was from every other person in the family. Unlike Connor, he smiled a lot, much more than Carl does too. "Oh, good evening," I greeted him as he came to stand beside me, and he nodded his head. An awkward silence assumed the atmosphere as we both stared into space. I was nervous and curious ab
