Virginator (HERO FIENNES-TIFFIN)

Chapter 9

"Love is an untamed force. When we try to control it, it destroys us. When we try to imprison it, it enslaves us. When we try to understand it, it leaves us feeling lost and confused." - Paulo Coelho

L.O.V.E.
Four letter word that inspired dynasties, revolutions, and wars. I like Helen in the Greek gods for launching a thousand ships. The story of Mark Anthony and Cleopatra. How can it be contained into just mere four letters but it meant something way larger than life.

Love is like the universe. It's unquantifiable. Endless. Infinite. No end in sight, just a loop of continuous events. A repetition of moments shared by someone else, somewhere, in this space time continuum. Love never stops happening.

What is it with love that even billionaires desire? I can't speak for mankind, but i know based on how Hero behaved recently, he is in love with me. How do i know? I feel it.

Love they say is personal. So it's my choice to define this as love. I don't know what else to make of the things he's doing. If it's sex he wants, I'm already offering myself to him. But he refuse me constantly it hurts. I don't know what else to do to make him fuck me.

"Delilah," i heard an angry growl.

I ran into his office. He has an office in the apartment, and he opted to work at home in the past few days.

"I told you to take down your name from this list," he said angrily showing me my profile from the virgin$$ website.

I want to laugh but i can't. I mean, really? I don't think I'm desirable enough for someone's billion dollars but his anger, it's explosive.

"It's just a joke," I said.

"How can you defy me?"

"Like someone would pay my price," i said trying to appease his anger.

"I'm not the only billionaire on planet earth," he said.

"Well, that's nothing really. I can just let you fuck me right now and my name will be taken out of that list," i said.

"It's not that simple. Everybody knows you're with me. This is more than just a simple bidding. I signed an agreement here. Whoever among us bed a virgin in this list without going through the process pays double the price!!"

I can tell he's really mad now. I didn't see this coming.

I'm stunned.

"Pay to who?"

"The other billionaires."

He is so angry now. Its disheartening to see him struggle like this.

"I'm sorry," i said.

"And  I can't keep the virgins. That's another part of the bid. If i do, their are penalties, Delilah. What have you done?"

"I.... I didn't know," i said. Of course i don't. This is doomed. My life is doomed. There's no way out now. What shall i do?

He placed his hands on his head bowed to his knees, an image of utter dispair. I wanted to touch him. I wanted to tell him it's okay, he'll pay me, and I'll return the money, then vanish from his life for good. I can make the sacrifices. I'm just one of those virgins that come and goes.

I kneeled in front of him, between his knees my hands holding his arms.

"Hero," i said softly. "Please help me, tell me what to do. I can do whatever you want, and i can vanish from your life now, to make this easier for you."

He's pulling his hair so desperately, shaking it and bowing his head more.

"If you only listened," he said.
