LOVING MS. BILLIONAIRE

17.

Vote. Comment. Let me hear what you think.

When I arrived home, Trevor was already waiting for me there. He was casually seated on the chair watching something on YouTube. He didn't see me come in until was right in front of him.

We exchanged pleasantries until he saw my anguished face.

"What's wrong? Why do you look like your cat just died?" He questioned looking at me with confusion. I was preoccupied with my thoughts that I only vaguely heard his voice.

"Nothing important," I dismissed the topic ready to tell him my new plan, " So, I called you to go over a new plan because we don't have much time and yours isn't getting us anywhere."

"Okay, so what do you have in mind?" He asked me. His brows were furrowed in deep concentration as he was going over my words.

"She likes me, so I was thinking, I could play along and pretend to like her back. That way it will be easy for her to trust me then boom!" I said confidently.

"Man, I don't trust you with women. You might do something stupid and ruin us all." I couldn't help a sheepish smile at Trevor's words. The man knew me too well. With women, I was ambitious and strategic. When I aimed at a woman, she would fall for me no question asked.

I wasn't trying to be a self assured jerk but that was the truth of the matter. I had never been turned down by a woman before. Neither have I approached a woman and she in turn turned me down.

My eyes landed on Trevor's features and I flicker of recognition passed his face.

I am fucking gutted.

"Wait a second, did you fuck her?" He was brutally blunt with his words and I couldn't blame him. That's  how he's always been. A look of disdain passed his face when I momentarily went silent.

"What?..no. I mean, not yet at least. We didn't go all the way." He glared daggers at me seemingly speechless.

"Fuck Mason, do you always think with your dick? And here I was thinking that for once in your life you were giving brains to this operation but you went and proved me fucking wrong. So what the fuck did you do huh? Fingered her? Went down on her? Did she soothe your big daddy down there?" I shuddered at the thought of her ever pleasing me that way.

"Shut the fuck up this instant! What have you done for us this far? I am the only one who risks his time everyday living this shit hole of life to get us somewhere. I can't sit and watch you disrespect me like this! So what if I fingered her, or even more, what is that to you? Come on man, what does it matter what I do or how I do it if it is going to give us what we need in the end? We need the money so badly, we also don't have much time before Mr Miller realizes where we are and comes after us. What would you have me do then? Be a loyal employee and wait for month pay? When the fuck do you think we'll reach your target at that pace?"  I couldn't keep it down now. The eruption of anger was like hot molten lava. And I wasn't schooled on how to handle it.

"That's not what I meant when I said that and you know it. What I am worried about is that this is not really you! This is not the way we have been carrying out our assignments. You've worked with women before but you didn't fuck them the moment you saw them. In fact, you only did it when it was really necessary. Tracy's mom is still tailing your ass for dumping her and then you go and finger your boss? Your daughter is still within the grasps of your father's claws, am simply asking to be careful. You don't want to have a second child when you can hardly take care of your first! Priorities man, look at the priorities." He groaned in anger and punched the couch in frustration.

"I know it's only been a month since I started working for her but my head is just screwed. She fucking drives me insane. I want to keep my fingers to myself, I really do but that caramel skin just calls to me. You know how resilient I am, this is also too new to me. I know that I don't like her any other way except sexually. I wouldn't even like her to be my girlfriend if the situation was any different. It's just that, I am a man and I have manly needs. No feelings involved man, I promise." I said raising my hands up in surrender.

I looked thoroughly confused. Miss Leyla isn't the type of girl I would usually go for. So why did my demeanour change whenever her name was mentioned? I was ice but she was like fire, burning through my defences. I had learnt my lesson already when I got Trisha, Tracy's mom pregnant. It was during these assignments. She had pestered me for a piece of my body and I couldn't deny a woman pleasure, but with her, I wished I did. She kept pestering me continuously after that and before I knew it, she was pregnant with Tracy.

As if that wasn't enough trouble, the woman kept following me demanding to be married.

Me, marriage? maybe in another dimension.

I was still under Mr Miller's wings by then. If you don't know Mr Miller very well, let me take you back a few years.

I was born of a man, ruthless than the worst serial killer you know. Mr Miller was a mayor of Cadillac town and also mafia king of that said town. Since he was in the government, no one dared say a thing to him. He took what he wanted whenever he wanted it. When I was old enough to understand things, I learnt that Mr Miller raped my mother and that's how I was conceived. When I was born, Mr Miller killed my mother in cold blood as she was not in agreement with the things he did. He always wanted me to be part in his godforsaken outrageous gang. And I, I didn't like that one bit. Trevor was also recruited in his gang by force. When I learnt that Trevor wanted out, I was there by his side to find our way out together. Mr Miller would send us to do dirty things for him and when we failed he punished us miserably. How we were still alive up to date is a miracle. The scars on our bodies were enough proof of how much we endured under his wing. I approached him one day and asked him whatever he wanted to grant us freedom and this is what he asked for.

Money!

Trevor and I ran away because where the fuck could we get that amount of money he asked?

That's right. Nowhere.

Mr Miller hunted us down wherever we went. When he learnt that I had a daughter, he found a crooked way to kidnap her. He has been threatening her life since. If I don't get him the money,  Tracy dies, and so do my siblings' Joy and Flynn.
