I was really exhausted after my lectures. I just wanted to go home and crash on my bed. I was really hungry too. As I walked out of the faculty, I got a text from an unknown number.
"At the entrance. Black Bentley, maroon pants, white shirt. Hurry up I don't have all day". The text read.
I frowned. I remember Mr Stone saying he'd get Ilay to pick me up from college. Perhaps this was his text. Was it necessary for him to be so cold?. I thought.
Sure enough, as I got to the entrance, I saw him standing there, tapping away on his phone. I stopped in my tracks. Calling him handsome would be an understatement. I could clearly see his muscles through the shirt he was wearing.
With him being this handsome, I don't regret getting pregnant with his baby. I'd do it again in a heartbeat.
I was unsure about how he'd react, but I decided to play it cool and just walk up to him.
"Hi. I'm River". I said to him as I got closer to him.
He lifted his gaze from his phone and looked at me for a long minute. That was the longest one minute of my life. I didn't even dare to breathe. His gaze was cold and piercing.
Through his gaze, I could tell that he didn't want any of what was happening right now. His beautiful grey eyes said it all.
He walked to the drivers side without saying anything. He got in, and started the engine. I stood there, unsure of what to do.
"Are you waiting for a special invitation before you get in?". He asked through the window.
I gently opened the door to the passenger seat and got in. Then I gently closed it. I couldn't afford to damage this car.
We drove off with the gazes of everyone on campus fixated on us. This would definitely cause a rumor by tomorrow.
The ride to Ilay's house was silent. He didn't say anything or look at me. I guess I'd have to put up with this behavior of his for the next eight months.
We arrived at his house in about thirty minutes. It was a high-end villa. My jaw dropped when at the sight of the house.
A grand double-height portico with sleek columns and a flat roof, a solid wood entrance door with a stylish chrome door handle, walls clad in natural stone, glass, and render, painted a soft creamy white. Subtle LED lighting accentuating the architectural features, a flat roof covered in dark gray slate tiles. Floor-to-ceiling windows and sliding glass doors with slim silver aluminum frames.
I was about to open the door and step out of the car to get a better look, when Ilay grabbed my hand.
"You must be glad. Aren't you, River?". He suddenly said.
I turned to look at him. "What do you mean? Glad? Why?".
He scoffed. "Don't act innocent with me. The only person that thinks you're pure and innocent is my father. Also he's the only one who wants you here". He said.
I frowned. What the hell was wrong with him. Why is he saying such things to me. I tried to snatch my hand away, but he didn't budge.
"What is wrong with you? Did you hit your head? Let go of me! You're hurting me". I said to him.
"Listen carefully to what I'm saying to you. You succeeded in your scheme and you've moved in with us. Congrats! But don't you even dare to dream of having anything to do with me. The only connection between us is the child in your womb". He said to me coldly.
I struggled to get out of his grip, as his hand tightened around my wrist.
"Let go of me! A- Are you crazy? What scheme? This was an accident. None of us wanted this". I said to him.
"You're hurting me Ilay. Please let go". I begged.
"An accident? I know what you did that night, so stop lying to me. I've said what I needed to. Don't try to get close to me, or use our relationship to get ahead. Besides, I'm already engaged". He said.
He got out of the car first, and slammed the door. I looked at my abused wrist. He had left a bruise on my wrist. I felt like biting him, so he could feel the same pain.
I slowly got out of the car. My wrist was throbbing. I didn't even have any interest in admiring the house anymore.
I followed Ilay inside, while trying to hide the bruise under my sleeve.
Thanks for reading y'all. Vote, comment and share. Now that River has moved in with Ilay, where do you think their relationship is headed?
Love y'all from the heart of my bottom ♡
