Love’n’Lust

“Brie, I’m leaving!” Belle stood at their apartment’s door ready to leave for work the next morning. Cherry had gone to work earlier than them both that day.

“Wait for me please, let’s take the bus together okay?” Brie begged while taking out a pair of black flats from the shoe rack in their shared bedroom.All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

“Alright, hurry up.”

“I’m here.” Brie panted, slipping her feet into the flats and hurrying to the door to meet Belle.

After locking the door, they both made for the stairs leading downstairs with Belle leading. Brie was texting a coworker quickly when she bumped into Belle at the stairs’ entrance.

“Why did you stop?” Brie asked and poked her head outside to see for herself and saw a man standing outside. She remembered seeing him once. It was the guy who had brought Belle’s shopped clothes upstairs the other day; it was Randy.

“Good morning ma’am.” Randy smiled politely. After saying his greeting, he opened the door of the left side of the car parked behind him.

“Did Ben ask you to come?” Belle asked, she didn’t know Ben was in the car, she knew he usually was very busy on early mornings like this.

“Mr Larkson’s in the car ma’am.” He informed her.

“He is?” Belle bent over and looked into the car to be sure.” Ben,” she uttered in pure surprise, it made him smile when he saw the look on her face.

“Come in, I wanted to see you before I went to the office.”

“I was going to take the bus with my sister….”

“One of the other cars can drop her off. Get in.” She bit her lips for a second then took her head back out from the car to tell Brie.

“Brie…..”

“I understand, I can just take the bus alone.” Brie cut her short before she could even say anything.

“No, let one of his drivers take you directly to work, okay?”

“Oh okay.” Brie nodded.”Everyone’s surely finding out about you and him with this convoy parked here.” Brie added in a whisper voice when she was about to go with the driver to take her to her workplace.

“How was your night?” Ben asked when Belle was finally in the car with him and after Randy had closed the car door.

“Tired.” Belle giggled with a reply, they had one of the best sex yet, yesterday at her new house and she slept through the night, tired from it.

With a simple smile coming from him, he opened his arms for her to come closer and she did. Resting her head against his chest, he caressed her left cheekbone; this was what he wanted coming here, he wanted to smell her as he felt her closeness. He wouldn’t admit but after she left the new house he got her yesterday, he realized that he didn’t want her to leave but he couldn’t stop her. She had to go to work today, she couldn’t stay with him, she wouldn’t.

Belle had him thinking about her last thing before he slept yesterday night. He thought about Nathan too, he didn’t want to lose Belle. In the light of those thoughts, he decided to convince her to sign a contract with him, he needed to secure that she was his. During all his years in the office, he didn’t trust anyone when it came to issues involving the companies under his name, not even his friends. It was business-wise to have one’s signature before starting a project or anything related so it had Ben used to that distrusting attitude.

He didn’t trust people easily but he trusted Belle, for some reason he did, he didn’t even know why. It wasn’t just because he was sleeping with her, he has had sex with other women too but it didn’t make him trust them but somehow he trusted Belle.

He trusted Belle but he didn’t trust Nathan, since the first time he noticed him around Belle, he knew he was a problem. It was why he wanted Belle to sign a contract, he wanted to be the only man legally allowed to have anything with her.

“Belle?” He called in his usual deep voice, she didn’t sit up, still having her head rested on his chest, she smiled when she heard him call her name.

“I was thinking…..” Ben started but stopped when it occurred to him that she might not like the idea.

“Go on, I’m listening.” Belle sat up this time to face him because he stopped talking.

“Belle, I….”

“What is it ?”

“I want to be the only one who gets to make you moan the way you do.” He finally said it and got an expected reaction from her.

She didn’t say anything after him, she just stared quite blankly at him for some seconds before resting her head on his chest again, without a word still.

“Say something.” He urged.

“What you want; it’s already happening, isn’t it? You were my first.”

“I want you to sign a contract Belle, I want to make it legal, no one else touches you, no one but me.”

“…..” Belle went speechless after his last sentence. What did this man really want?

“You won’t let anyone else get as close to you as I do. You won’t have sex with anyone else Belle, just me. Will you sign it?”

Belle sat up from his chest again, she stared at h shortly. Opening her mouth to say something but no words came initially.

“What if I sign this contract like you want and then I sleep with someone else?”

“You won’t.” He sounded definitive. There was a seriousness in his voice.

“But just what if….”

“Belle.” He stopped her words.

“I don’t want to sign such.” She let him know.

“Why not?”

“What do you mean, why not? What do you even want?” Belle had to ask.

“To be the only one allowed to touch you.” He knew what he wanted.

“You are already getting that, I don’t have to sign a contract besides you don’t love me.”
