A Baby For Billionaire Knox

THEME: A living dead

SAINT PETER HOSPITAL

Oliver Scott stood outside the ward. He watched in stunned silence as Knox Martins held Eretia tightly to himself. He was alone with her.

Oliver didn’t know if he should go in. He was shocked that Eretia was dead.

Tears streamed down Knox Martins cheeks. “I love you.. so much.. come back.. to me.” He whispered.

Few minutes passed and suddenly her body convulsed like she had been shocked with electricity. Eretia slipped away from his arms and landed on the bed with a thud. Still she remained unconscious but her body shimmered with unrealized force.

“Doctor!” Knox screamed out.

Oliver Scott rushed in with his gaze meeting Knox’s. He asked Knox to move away to check Eretia’s pulse that seems to be unresponsive.

Then Knox Martins moved out of the room and alerted the nurse at the desk. He drew a deep, shaky breath and waited outside the intensive care unit. Knox watched Oliver bark out orders to the team.

“Her pulse is faint!” They repositioned to resuscitate Eretia.

Several minutes passed and then Knox could sworn that her fingers flinched. He held his breathe and watched intently. He ran his hand in his hair, tears dripping again and down his chin. Eretia would make it back alive like she always does. Knox reassured himself. He could feel it. A gasps of happiness mixed with tears as he continued to murmur.

“I love you, Eretia. Please come back to me.. just a little bit more now..” Knox pleaded as if she could hear his words.

Then Eretia opened her eyes slowly to the voices in the air. Her chest rising and falling. Knox’s eyes looked at the machine and he couldn’t help the cry of joy and relief that escaped his throat. Her heart beat was in a steady rhythm.

Eretia was injected and soon she fell into consciousness again. Oliver set his team to stitch up her wound And thankfully there was no damage was done to her internal organs. She was lucky that it was pen knife. And it was indeed a miracle!

A nurse came out and asked Knox Martins to follow her to sign some papers as a guardian. He signed it and prayed over and over again that she would be fine.

IN THE NIGHT

Mary Ann came out of the car with her eyes surveying the dark area. Mary brought out her phone to check the address Vins had sent to her. She looked beyond and saw the small sized house. She dialed his number and he picked immediately.

“What’s taking you so long?” Vins Bond asked.

“I am outside.” Mary Ann answered.

“Oh!” Vins mumbled.

“Yes.. come outside.” Mary Ann instructed.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

“No, Mary Ann. You have to come in. Remember I am to decide things here.” Vins Bond coaxed.

“Okay.” She murmured.

Mary Ann made her way to the front door of the house. She wondered what Vins was up to by asking her to come into his house. She pressed the bell and the door opened almost immediately.

A huge grin played on Vins face. His chest was bare and he had a white towel around his waist. Her eyes did a slow crawl on his body. Vins Bond’s chest and shoulders was bare and muscular. His stomach was flat and the line of hair from his navel downward made her swallow hard.

“Are you here to drool over my body? Or give me my payment?” Vins Bond asked.

Mary Ann swallowed hard again. “Oh.. I.. I..” She stuttered.

“Do you want some coffee?” Vins Bond offered.

“No.. no..”

“Come on! We are friends now!” Vins Bond coaxed. He opened the door wide. “Let us grab a drink before you leave. I mean just to celebrate your victory.” He said with a croaked smile.

Oh no this is not cool! Mary Ann couldn’t take her eyes off him. It was also hard to maintain her train of thought. So without thinking she stepped in and Vins closed the door behind her.

“So did you get to meet Knox?” Vin questioned.

“Yes.” Mary Ann stared at him.

“Well I am sure he is crying now.” Vins chuckled.

And Mary Ann nodded slowly. Pay him and leave! She thought. Yes! She can’t keep standing like an idiot.

Mary Ann opened her bag and brought out an envelope. “This is the balance of your payment.”

Vins Bonds collected it and checked into it. And he tossed it on the nearest couch. A wicked smile formed on his face. But he didn’t want the money tonight. He wanted her.

Vins Bond wanted to prove to her that he could win against any woman. And he was determined to take her with force if she rejects him.

“Our meetings ends now.” Mary Ann said with a serious look.

“Really?” Vins arched his eyebrows.

“Yes.” Her answer was sharp and immediate.

Mary Ann started towards the door.

“You are forgetting something.” His voice stopped her.

Mary Ann faced him and said. “What?”

Vins Bond advanced towards her and blocked the pathway to the door. Mary Ann froze the moment his hands clasped her waist and he pulled her against him.

“I asked for one night with you.” Vins Bond grinned.

Mary Ann shoved at him but he didn’t sway. “Don’t fight me, Mary Ann.” His fingers grazed her cheeks.

“I paid you, Vins in full.” Mary Ann gritted.

“Yes.. but I want to prove to you..” His hands covering her breast. Mary Ann began to tremble. “That I can win a woman. I am up for any challenge.” He added.

Her breast fitted his palm perfectly. And Mary Ann didn’t know why she wasn’t telling him to stop until lips found hers and her bag dropped to the ground. She couldn’t say no to him.

“You want me.. don’t you?” He asked.

“Why.. why are.. you doing this?” She asked unsteadily.

Vins Bond kissed her roughly. “Do you want me to stop?” His lips parted from hers and she stared at him.

Then Mary Ann could feel the heat rising between her legs. “Vins..” She whispered.

“I know you want me.” He chuckled.

With his hands on her shoulder, he put his mouth to hers. Mary Ann reached up to him and her legs wrapped around his waist. They kissed aggressively until he carried her into his room. Then they were falling together on the bed.

Mary Ann knew that she shouldn’t be doing this with him but she didn’t care. She wanted that moment with him. And she closed her eyes to block the image of Knox Martins in her mind’s eye.
