Free Alpha Billionaire 3 by Helen Cooper Page B

“One final gift.”
    “Ooh, what is it?” I giggled.
    “This one is the most special.” His blue eyes were warm as he handed me a larger box.
    “What is this? Sexy underwear?” I laughed and opened the box eagerly. I frowned as I saw a small notebook and a pen. “What’s this?”
    “It’s a journal.” He smiled happily. “And a pen for you to write in it.”
    “Oh, I don’t keep a journal.”
    “Oh, but you must.” He continued to smile, but he looked firm. “You must write in your journal.”
    “I mean if you really want me to.” I agreed, too happy to think much of it.
    “I’m hiring a new chauffeur tomorrow.” He smiled at me. “He’ll be able to take care of all of our needs, so we don’t have to leave too often.”
    “Oh, I don’t mind doing the small things. I can shop and cook and—“
    “No, there is no need for that.” He shook his head and played with my right breast. “I don’t want you to do that.”
    “I don’t mind.” I was surprised at how firm he sounded. “I like to cook.”
    “I just want to spend my days with you. I want us to be together and I want to know you’re safe. Always.”
    “I’ll be safe, Tyler. Nothing will happen to me.” But then his mouth covered mine and he kissed me so passionately that I forgot about everything other than his tongue in my mouth and his cock pressed up against my stomach.

    I stared at Tyler’s sleeping body and rolled over and stared at the journal on the side of the bed, my heart suddenly racing as I remembered Eugenie asking me what I was going to write in my journal. My body felt cold as I lay back and stared at the ceiling. I sat up again, jumped out of bed and walked to the door.
    “Where are you going?” Tyler’s voice was soft behind me.
    “I wanted to get some water from the kitchen.” I paused, my hand on the door handle, anxiously wanting to exit the room. My heart was racing and my face was hot.
    “I have water on the nightstand.”
    “Oh okay.” I turned around slowly and walked back to the bed. “I didn’t realize.”
    “It’s okay.” He smiled indulgently. “Back to bed and I’ll pour you some.”
    “Thank you.” I lay back and waited for him to pass me the glass of water. I took it from him and drank it slowly. He watched me with careful eyes and the only sound in the room was the sounds of me drinking thirstily. I handed him back the glass and he placed it on the nightstand and we both lay back.
    “Good night, Evie.”
    “Good night, Tyler.”
    We both lay back, our shoulders rubbing against each other and I closed my eyes and tried to breathe slowly. The nerves in my stomach were rumbling and I scratched an itch on my face. Then I heard the ticking of the watch next to my ear and froze as I listened to the tick tock of the second hand. All I could think about was Eugenie’s rambling. “Tick Tock goes the clock, Tick Tock goes the clock.” My body started trembling then.
    “You’re different, Evie.” Tyler whispered in my ear as his fingers lazily played with my nipples as I lay there in shock. Had I been taken all along? Had I been fooled? Was Tyler the one that I should have been scared of all of this time? Had the lady in the market been right? Had I made the wrong decision? “I know that you’re different Evie. This time will be different. Trust me, Evie. All you have to do is trust me.” He kissed my cheek softly and as I stared into his deep blue eyes, I realized that it didn’t matter if I trusted him or not. He had me. And there was nothing I could do about it. He rolled over on-top of me again and I spread my legs wide, waiting for him to enter me. He did so quickly and the only sounds in the room were his deep breathing and the ticking of my new watch. My legs clung to him as I orgasmed and I scratched his back as I called out his name. I waited for him to fall asleep before I got out of bed again, this time I was very slow and calculated with my movements. I knew as soon
