The Marriage Contract With a Billionaire

Chapter 5

Ava’s POV

Jim gave me a scare that evening. I needed to know why he wanted to see me that late after my wedding so I asked him to at least tell me why he wanted to see me. He told me he had decided to investigate his accident and that he wanted to bring the case to the police station. I told him I was in support of his decision but this was not time for such a discussion. I told him that it was too late for me to step out of a house I had just been brought to. I just got married that day so I couldn’t move about as I pleased.

“ I will inform Cayden about it and come see you tomorrow. This evening is not the time for this kind of conversation.”, I said and he understood.

The next day I told Cayden about it and he allowed me to go meet my brother. I told Jim I was going to help him with the investigation and everything about the case but he had to fully recover before we could start the investigation.

Jim always listened to me and confined himself to me. He agreed with me so he decided to fully recover so that we start the investigation after his recovery.

My marriage with Cayden was all over the news from time to time. We went to events together and acted for the camera, his family, and the public to see that we were a lovely couple.

It wasn’t the same at home. We barely talked to each other. We only met during breakfast time and supper time. We only spoke when I needed to be somewhere urgently so I called to inform him about it or he was going to come home late so he called to inform me about it.

Days turned into weeks, weeks turned into months and it was the same every day. I wasn’t allowed out of the house unless it was very urgent. There were CCTV cameras all over the house and I couldn’t do anything without anybody watching.

The first week after we got married, Cayden said, “ Last week was your grace period because it was your first week here. You’re not allowed out of the house without my permission and if your reason doesn’t make sense to me, you’re going nowhere.”

I was so shaken by what he said. “Was that the meaning of the stay-at-home wife in the contract?”, I thought. This had become my reality so I just decided to accept it.

There were days that I wanted to step out of the house for fresh air because I was tired of being in the house but I couldn’t. I did the same thing every day. Eat, watch movies, and sleep. I began to stress eat.

Boredom was killing me and there was nothing I could do about it. Anissa was the only person I could call when I needed someone to talk to but I never told her that I wasn’t allowed out of the house.

I couldn’t bring myself to tell her because this was what I signed up for.

Cayden fulfilled his part of the agreement by paying me the money we agreed on so my family was free of any debt. They started building themselves up again and for that, I was very grateful so I decided to just be there and exist. “ Two years will come soon “, I always told myself.

I heard a knock on my door one evening. I wondered who it was because it was too late for someone to knock on my door. I was in tiny pajamas that night.

The only times someone knocked on my door were breakfast time, lunchtime, and supper time and the only ones who knocked on my door were either the maidservants or the security guards.

It was too late for any of them to knock on my door at that time so I rushed to the door to see who it was.

It was Cayden. I was shocked and confused. Cayden had never knocked on my door. He barely passed in front of my door. I allowed him in. He reeked of alcohol but he didn’t look drunk.

He entered and closed the door behind him. I tried walking away from him but he pulled me close to him. Cayden was very handsome from afar but being that close to him I realized he was more than handsome. He was very pretty. We locked eyes and I froze. His eyes darkened as they lingered down my tiny pajamas. His grip around me tightened but I didn’t even try to free myself from his grip. He steadied me against the wall and caged me with his body. He cupped the back of my head with his hand and he placed his lips on mine. We kissed. We didn’t stop kissing. He carried me onto the bed. He placed his hands in my pajamas. His strong and gentle hands began to stroke me, his hands, his lips, and his tongue were all over my body.

He took off my clothes and I laid naked before him. He looked at me and gently said, “ You are beautiful.” I couldn’t think straight after he said that. He took off his clothes. He had a beautiful body. His shoulders were broad, he had abs and beautiful skin. He placed his lips on my n*****s and I felt my n*****s rise. It startled me because I had never felt this way before. I was a virgin.

He realized that I was startled so he stopped and looked at me.

With a gentle and very low tone, he asked, “ Is it your first time?”

I nodded. He grinned and with the same tone he said, “ It’s all right, don’t worry, just relax and listen to your body.”

My sense of reasoning was leaving my body at that moment and I thought, “ What is this guy doing to me?”
