I was walking down the street when he heard a click. I looked around and didn't see anything. I continued on to my shop and with my day.
I was standing behind the counter working my ass off when a gentleman walked up to me.
"Ms. Miller. I'm Roger Williams. My client and I have a proposition for you" he says
"WHat?" I say
"Would you mind closing early today so we could discuss it?" He asks
"No I can't" I say
"We will pay you double what you would make today if you close early and if you say no to what we have to say you can keep the amount" He tells me
"Alright" I say nodding
I take twenty minutes to close up the shop and then another man walks in. I take a seat and sigh.
"This is Christian Myers." Roger says
"Hello" I say
"Natalie I star on a TV show. It's basically like a dating show. I have to pick five girls. I seen you today and I liked you. I would like you to join the show." He tells me
"So like the bachelor" I say
"Something like that. I would like you to sign a NDA and then take this paperwork home and read over it. You will have 48 hours to decide. If it's a no that's fine. If it is a yes then I will pay you so much money to cover your shop being closed while your away" He tells me
"I don't know" I say sighing
"Why not?" Christian ask
"I recently come out of a relationship i'm not ready to even date" I say shrugging
"Just read this and if you say yes and you try it and don't like it your free to leave whenever you would like. we will cover travel, and clothing expenses and you get to keep the clothes" He says
"Alright i'll read it but I make no promises" I say
"Understood. Here is my number. If you have any questions please call me" He says
I nod and they stand and leave. I hurry home and lock myself in and sit down and read over everything. I was shocked at reading everything but I thought maybe it could be good for me. My ex was showing up more and maybe I needed to show him I moved on. I picked up my phone and called Christian.
"Hello" He says
"It's Natalie. I read everything but I have some concerns." I say
"Would you like to come to the hotel to discuss them?" He asks
"Sure" I say
"I'll send a car for you. Send me your address" He tells me
I hang up and send it to him and I quickly get ready. About ten minutes later I was on my way to his hotel. I was lead to his room and I knocked. He opened the door wearing jeans and a t shirt and my mouth watered.
"hello. come in" He says
I step in and he closes the door. I walk over and look out the huge glass window and smile.
"So" He says
I jump and he chuckles.
"Sorry" He says
"It's alright. So I read the part about the s*x thing." I say and clear my throat
"Ah yes. It's not a must. If it happens then it happens. Yes the other girls can join but you can say no if your not comfortable with it. Of course some of it can be filmed or it can remain between us." He tells me
"So i can sign this just encase but it doesn't have to happen" I say
"Yes." He says
"If it happens it stays between us. And we will have like alone dates right?" I ask
"Yes no group dates on this show. it's all one on one dates and no the other girls aren't aloud to interrupt our day unless it's an emergency." He tells me
"Alright" I say
I sit down and sign the papers and sigh. I hand them to him and he grins at me. I offer a small smile and he frowns.
"What's wrong?" He asks
"Just worried. I never do these types of things. I'm scared I guess" I say shrugging
"I will make sure your comfortable at all times. If at any time you need some alone time you tell me and I will make it happen." He says
"Okay" I say
"Have you had dinner?" He asks
"No i went home and started reading that" I say
"Well how about dinner and we can get to know one another better" He offers
"Sure." I say
"Room service ok? Wine?" He asks
"FIne. And it's late i shouldn't have wine since I have to go home" I say
"Or you can stay in the spare room since we have to go shopping tomorrow" He says
"Are you sure?" I ask
"Of course." He tells me
"I don't have anything to wear" I comment
He pulls out his phone and makes a call.
"Abby, Natalie needs some sleep clothes and clothes for tomorrow" He says
He hands the phone to me and I say hello.
"what sizes do you wear?" I hear
"8 in jeans, medium in a shirt, i'm a 38 triple D and panties i'm a medium to large depending on what you get. And I wear a 8 in shoes" I say while looking at Christian who is on the hotel phone
"I'll drop them off in two hours" she says and hangs up
I walk over and lay his phone by him and sigh.
"Steak ok?" He asks
I nod and he smiles and I walk over and look out the window again. I feel him stand beside me but he doesn't say anything. He moves behind me and places his hands on my shoulders and starts rubbing softly and I sigh and relax. He adds a little pressure and I moan softly.
"see nothing to worry about. Just relax honey" He says in my ear
My breath hitches and I look at him over my shoulder. He leans down to kiss me when the elevator dings and a woman walks in. He pulls away and goes over to her and takes the bag and dismisses her. She huffs and leaves and he sits everything down.
A MONTH TIME SKIP
we were on a date and tonight we were staying the night together in a hotel suite. I was nervous as hell cause the s****l attraction was there and I didn't know what to do about it. I had gotten use to the cameras but I hated them in my room.
"You ok?" He asks me
"Fine" I say offering a small smile and sipping my wine
He frowns knowing i'm lying and sighs. He throws some cash down on the table and leads me out and to the hotel.
"Your not ok. Is it about tonight?" He asks
I nod and look out the window.
"Natalie I told you we didn't have to do anything. I have fallen for you quick. But I won't push you" He tells me
I look at him in shock.
"Come on let's get you in a hot bath and in some pajamas and in bed." He says offering me his hand
I take it and he leads me to the huge bathroom and starts a bubble bath. Once it was ready he started removing my clothes and helped me into the tub. Once I was settled he turned to leave and I reached out and grabbed his hand. He looked down at me and sighed.
"Stay" I say
He nods and starts stripping and then slides in behind me. I lean back against him and sigh. We sat for a long time in silence before I spoke.
"I want to" I say
He tenses and i turn my head to look at him. He leans down and kisses me and I turn and straddle him. He wraps his arms around me and stands and leads us to the shower to rinse away the bubbles. Once I was dry he drops me on the bed and crawls up my body and kisses me. He continues to kiss down my jaw and across my neck and I head the condom wrapper. Next thing I know he slides into me quickly. I gasp and sink my nails into his back and he groans. He picks up speed and I moan loudly.
"Holy f**k" I groan
He grunts in my ear and I flip him over and start riding him slowly. It didn't take long for me to almost lose it when i hear a click. I spin around and gasp. I scramble up and wrap the sheet around me.
"What the hell" I scream
"It's in your contract" Abby says and looks at the camera man
"No the f**k it isn't" I snap
"Christian signed off on everything" Abby says with a smirk
I look at him in shock and he was sitting there stunned.
"I didn't" He says looking at me with worry
"You did" Abby says
"What the f**k?" i scream
"You really should goggle people honey. How does it feel knowing you f****d the prince of England" Abby says
I gasp and look at him and my eyes water. He looks at her with shock.
"Your fired get the f****d out" Christian roars
Abby jumps in shock and looks scared. He grabs his phone and Roger walks in.
"Abby is fired. See she is thrown out. And get me Natalie's contract now" He roars
Roger nods and I quickly grab my clothes and run off to get dressed. I sneak past Christian and head for the door. I bump into Roger and sigh.
"Could you get me a flight home?" I ask refusing to look at him
He sighs but nods and pulls out his phone.
"Here you go Ms. Your things have been packed and they will meet you at the airport" He tells me
"Thank you" I whisper
"Natalie" Christian calls out
I run past Roger and down to the car that takes me straight to the airport. When i arrived home I didn't even unpack all I did was cry. People had been knocking on my door for five days now and I refused to answer it. Christian had been calling nonstop but i changed my number. At the end of the week I decided to open the bakery back up. I headed in and the day went on as normal. No one asked about anything and some even gave me looks of sympathy which i ignored. When the day was over I closed up and headed home. When i got there Christian was sitting on my front porch. I pushed past him and unlocked the door.
"Natalie wait. I'm sorry. I did sign off on it but I was given the wrong contract. It was yours I signed it was a fake and i'm suing Abby for doing that to the both of us" He says in a rush
"Go home Christian" I say and close the door in his face
Chritian's POV
i sighed and got in the car and drove to the airport. When i arrived back in England I headed straight for my parents. My mom hugged me and I sighed.
"so you found her" My father says
"Yes and she refuses to have anything to do with me now because of Abby. I really messed this up" I say dropping into a nearby chair
"I got a idea" My mother says and walks away
I talk to my dad for hours before I head to bed. The week went on and on and I decided to go for a ride on my horse and when I come back I heard voices. I walked in the dining room to see My mother, father and Natalie all talking.
"Hello Christian" My mother says
Natalie gasps and whirls around and then looks at my mother with betrayal.
"excuse me i have a flight to catch" Natalie says standing up
"sit down" My mother commands her
I look at her wide eyed cause I see the fumes coming out of Natalie's ears
"Excuse me I don't give a f**k if your the queen of england of not. i'm not your peasant or child. My parents dies a long time ago and I don't need anymore. So go f**k yourself lady" She snaps
She turns on her heel and marches out with her head held high and I grin at her. I bust out laughing and my mother sits there in shock.
"That was amazing" I say still laughing
"Christian that is no way to act and look how she spoke to me" My mother says
"Mother she is right. You can't command her. She has a mind of her own which is why I feel for her to begin with. She doesn't put up with my s**t. Get over it" I say to her
My mother looks at me in horror and I smile at my dad and he winks at me. I turn and run after her and I catch her by her waist.
"now where do you think your going little bumblebee" I say in her ear
"Christian let go" She says with a tired voice
I sit her down and turn her around and notice the bags and dark circles under her eyes even with the make up.
"Give me a hour. IF you don't like what I say i'll drive you to the airport myself" I tell her
Natalie's POV
I nod and he offers me his arm and I take it and he leads me through the garden.
"I'm so sorry about what happened. I am suing her and she will do jail time. The footage was deleted right away and it will never be found again. I'm sorry I didn't tell you who I was but I was made to keep that to myself." He says
I was sitting by him on a bench and I was nodding in and out. I hadn't been sleeping good and his cologne was luring me to sleep. I had missed it a lot.
"Bumblebee" He says
"Hmm" I say humming at him
I hear him chuckle and then I was lifted and that's the last thing I remember. When I woke up again I was in a huge bed and tensed. I slowly got up and slipped on my robe and headed down to the kitchen. when i got there it was empty so i decided on breakfast. I turned on some music and got to cooking. When i spun around I gasped seeing him and his mom and dad standing there. He was grinning and I gave a sheepish smile.
"I'm so sorry. I didn't think it was that loud" I say quickly
"It wasn't. We only heard you when we were headed to the dining room. Why are you cooking?" Christian asks
"Um I kicked everyone out and started cooking" I say in a duh tone
"What?" His dad says
"Um I like to cook so i kicked everyone out" i say
"Natalie we have people for that" Christian tells me
"Chris do not make me beat you with my spatula again. Now get out" I say pointing to the door
"Yes ma'am. And it smells great" He says kissing my temple and walking out
His parents follow him and I finish up and take everything in and sit it down. I sit down and we all dig in. Christian moans into his bite and I smile.
"Good?" I ask
"Amazing as well love. How did you sleep?" He asks
"Great. I'm sorry I fell asleep on you" I say
"No worries. It sure wasn't the first time it's happened" He says smirking
"Hey that was not my fault. You had me going all day and I didn't even get to eat dinner cause I was so tired" I tell him
"You still had fun" He says winking at me
"I did but that's not the point." I say pointing my fork at him
"What is the point?" He asks
" i'm not use to this. i don't fit in here" I say with a sigh
"Natalie of course you do because I love you." He tells me
My head snaps up and I look at him in shock.
"What? Why?" I ask
"Because your different. You don't let people walk all over you. Your not fake. I like that you would rather do things yourself then have someone do them for you. You told my mother to go f**k herself and kept your head up high while doing it. And you make the best sweets ever" He says with a wink
"I will make you fat if you keep making me feed you those" I tell him
"That is what my personal trainer is for" He says with a smile
"Chris" I say with a sigh
"Natalie stay here for a month or two. If you hate it you can leave. No cameras unless it's a big event we have to attend." He offers
"One month. Call Roger and have him go pack my things and send them over and I need to call Ashley and leave her in charge of the shop" I say
"Done. Now let's get you in some clothes and we will go shopping the England way" He says
"Go ahead I want to talk to your mom a minute" I say
He nods and his dad follows him out. I turn and look at his mom and sigh.
"Don't say sorry for standing up for yourself young lady. I admire that more than you know. And I am sorry about your parents" She tells me
"Thank you. WOuld you like to join us today? I have no idea what the hell i'm doing" I say with a smile
"You know what let's do it" SHe says
I smile and stand and run off to get dressed. When i enter the bedroom I was in Christian was standing at the end of the bed on the phone and I took off and jumped on his back knocking him to the bed. He grunts and rolls over leaving me straddling him and smiles up at me. He says a few more words and then hangs up the phone.
"What are you up to bumblebee?" He asks gripping my hips
"Bugging the s**t out of you" I say smiling
"You could never bug me" He says
I roll my hips into his and grind down and he moans loudly.
"Really? I hear a challenge" I say
"Natalie I will bend you over and make you scream and I won't care who hears us" He growls at me
I lean down and kiss him and he kisses me back harshly and I moan when he flips me over. He unties my robe and runs a hand over my breast and down my side and over my hip. His hand ends behind my knee and he yanks my leg up around his waist and he grinds down into me. I moan into his mouth and then there is a knock on the door. He sighs into my neck but gets up and pulls me up with him.
"I promise when we get back i'll love every inch of you" He says against my lips and kisses me softly.
