Chapter 105: Chapter 105
(Vivienne)
The swimming lesson was a hard one at first. I asked if I could get the floater just for comfort but unfortunately, the grumpy man refused me saying I could learn without children's stuff.
Of course, that was him being sarcastic and I ignored him knowing I was at his mercy even though he forced me into doing what he wanted
"Hehe...that's...that's enough I'm so done here", I said with chuckles and tried to get away from him. He was busy teasing me after three hours of teaching me some basics of swimming. I could move a distance without him guiding me although I was scared to move that far
The water was cold at first but after spending so much time in the pool. I felt comfortable and happy that Victor was starting to take advantage just because I let him do as he wanted
"That's it for tonight...I think you are a quick learner" Victor said and pulled me towards the boulders hidden away making me gasp several times when he wrapped his arms around my body. I didn't know why Victor seemed to be in a good mood. Earlier he left me at the hospital furious but now we were both in the water standing under a waterfall from the larger boulders getting drenched even more
The night seemed colorful, even though I was showing him attitude I was enjoying my time with him. For the first time, I felt happy to be with someone and Victor seemed to be having a good time although he was as grumpy and cold as ever
"Wrap your legs around my waist" he muttered as he pulled me up and I automatically did as he said and wrapped my legs around his waist. I wanted to protest or at least leave the pool but his hold on me tightened
In the process of our swimming session, I took off my loose shirt and remained only in my bra and shorts. I tried to calm myself knowing Victor had his arms around my bareback with my hands resting around his neck. Our faces were an inch from each other. My breathing was a little high but I did everything to keep calm, especially when the water was falling on me dripping down my face, and fell on Victor who seemed to be a little lower
"Sir…"I parted my lips to speak but I got the shock of a lifetime when his lips sealed with mine. My mind went blank and the entire world seemed to have paused because I could feel my heart pounding violently against my chest. The mixture of water and Victor's wet list numbed my senses so much that I didn't know what to do. This wasn't the first time we shared a kiss but three times now. He sucked my lower lip softly tugging at it so that a warm shiver ran throughout my body that I responded automatically. I didn't have to pretend but I found myself clinging to it as our lips moved in unison. His hands secured my back firmly while my grip around his neck tightened.
I wanted so much from him that kissing wasn't enough
"Mm…"I moaned as I tightened my legs around him. The water falling on us added to the moment that I let myself float away. I wanted him to carry him and kiss me to my heart's content. His tongue felt so good that I deepened the kiss forgetting I was gasping for air. He saw through my desperation and the way I moved my hands to his hair and let it loose. It was wet and silk that running my fingers in his hair felt so wonderful. His touch started a fire that was hard to put out
His savage attack had me squirming as esctasy built in my body. I could feel him going crazy as he gripped my wet hair fisting it in his hand. He didn't seem to know what he wanted because he kept moving his hands all over my body as if he couldn't get enough and I could speak for both, I wanted more from him
His large hands caressed my back so lovingly that I moved even closer to him feeling his heartbeat against mine
"Shh...calm down" he murmured as he broke the kiss but I captured his mouth again and deepened the kiss. I wanted to taste everything, to explore his warm mouth with my tongue, and like he wanted to the same, Victor sucked on me so much that I felt weak. My body was numb that if not for the fact that he was holding me in place, I would have melted away like butter. My stomach was already dancing in happiness and my head went wild. He was gentle and when I was completely out of breath I slowly detached our lips but still kept kissing each other
"Victor" I moaned out his name and reached for his face. His eyes were on me. His arms wrapped around my petite body. The coldness between our bodies turned into heat. I wanted to know why he did this with me. Later I ignored him because he acted like a jerk. He did things then he denied and blamed me and now we just kissed so I wanted answers
"I want..."I mumbled but we ended up kissing again. The sounds of our kisses sounded lovely especially the water flowing even more on us
"You are so strange" he started as he ran his thumb over my swollen lips. His touch was electrifying as it sent warm shivers through my body and I played with his wet beard. At least he was talking understanding like most times
"You are like a forbidden fruit I want so badly to have"he muttered as he snuggled his head on my chest and my heart raced rapidly. I didn't know if he was trying to say
"Ms. Payton you shouldn't do this to me it's unfair…" he added as he kept his head on my chest, the water was now falling on him "now I want you to touch what you haven't touched before... anything"I heard him murmur in a low voice. It was like he was sleepy but what did he mean by me touching something I haven't touched
"I'm cold sir...I want to go in"I muttered and he immediately moved his head from my chest
"Sure"

I felt so cold even when I was all dried up. Victor carried me from the water and back inside. He took me to my room and this time he changed me. As much as felt shy about letting him get away with murder. I was too tired to stop him. I tried to dress but he said there was nothing he haven't seen about me
"You are fine now" he murmured as he covered me with a warm duvet. I dragged it up to my stomach and rested my hands there and half sat leaning back to the pillows
"I'm okay thanks," I said softly, keeping my gaze away from me and fiddling with my hands.
"You should get some sleep...I'm sure you are cold" I added when he wasn't saying anything but just standing there. He was done for the night hence he had to go and get some sleep while I did the same
"Do you want me to go?" he asked, which was ridiculous. Since when did he get so chatty. As far as I was concerned. He never liked talking and when I tried to talk to him. He pretended as if I wasn't there so now what changed
"I'm curious...what are you sir...you seem to have a lot of personalities," I said looking up at him. He seemed taken by my question but I was serious. Victor was a mysterious man. He had many personalities which made it impossible for me to know who he was
"Sometimes you act like a thug...sorry for this but you seem like a ruthless man...a lot gentle but like a mafia at the same time...I try to understand the doctor part of you but I don't see that"I explained while playing with my hands. I had to ask who he was. I had no right to ask him when I was just his Surrogate but I was curious to know Victor Ellison
"Ms. Payton you have nine months to know who Victor Ellison is...it's your homework," he said unexpectedly and I looked at him. He wasn't smiling or anything but just blank. I didn't react or say anything but I watched as he turned away and left my room.
The door closed and I was still shocked but soon I shook my head and decided to sleep. I didn't know how I did face Victor after what happened between us and the thought of it had me smiling, for the first time I slept with a smile on my face. I didn't want anything to go wrong.

"You are not taking care of yourself...come on eat up," Cassy said as she shoved more food in my mouth. I didn't know how things got to this but I was woken up by people arguing and it was Monica and Cassy who barged in and started calling for me. Monica of course hated people like us unfortunately Cassy was a crazy girl who loved to out classy people in their place
"Cas...please...I'm fine" I whined with my mouthful and wiped my mouth. I was tired and full but she was busy putting more fruits on my plate
"It's best you eat up...I don't want you to be unhealthy...I asked Victor if I could take you off but...that grumpy lady said nasty words to me" Cassy said and stopped what she was doing and sat on my bed. She looked pretty and happy. I wondered how work was going
"Monica isn't so friendly...but tell me how's work...it's been a while since I visited my old place," I said and shifted to a comfortable sitting position. I missed my old life. As much as this life was different, I missed working every night and attending to customers
"It's crap...that old thug fired me a few months back," Cassy remarked and ate some fruits. I was shocked that she didn't tell me this
"But why did that thug fire you...you worked harder than any of us"I lashed out, that man needed to learn a lesson to respect his employees. He treated us like slaves and didn't pay us on time. He fired me yes I made a mistake but Cassy was an old employee
"Let's leave it... anyways so...the businessman...Victor...he's handsome"Cassy said when poking at my chest but I shrugged her off and snatched the plate of fruits from her.
"I guess but I don't want to talk about that," I said, tucking my hair behind my ears awkwardly, I didn't want to think about Victor in the slightest. Things were weird between us and a lot awkward that was why I didn't leave my bed no matter what. But I was to Victor left early
"Okay but he's good looking...when I came here I nearly collapsed seeing this great mansion! he's so rich and famous!" she exclaimed and rose to her feet. She was twirling which made me laugh. I tried laughing but felt a sharp pain in my abdomen. It was irritating but the pain was intensifying so much that I couldn't stand it but I kept calm secretly taking deep breaths and smiling when Cassy stopped and looked at me
"You okay?" she asked and I nodded at her and forced myself to eat, something was wrong with me. I didn't know what but when I reached under the sheets and felt the bed. I glanced down my hand secretly and saw blood.
