Pampered Like A Princess

Edward had a little secret. He loved to pamper women.

He put Noelle on the couch gently and sat down beside her. “Where’s your Mommy?”

“In the shower,” Noelle pointed towards the bathroom and said.

Edward looked in the direction she was pointing. Splashing sounds could be distinctly heard.

Nathan crept up beside Noelle and wrapped his arms around her.

He looked at Edward from top to bottom. This man was extremely tall; just like the basketball stars he saw on television!

“Uncle, are you courting my Mommy?” Nathan directly asked.

Edward was stunned. Come to think of it, Nathan’s doubts were justifiable. Nelissa was only twenty-three years old. She was young and beautiful.

Besides, Nelissa was so petite and delicate. It wasn’t surprising that Nelissa had a lot of suitors over the years.

“Come here, I have a question for you. Do you know about any other men that have courted your Mommy over the years?” Edward directed his question towards Nathan.

“Of course! Back in Southville, a man came looking for my Mommy every day. He even drove a Porsche Cayenne!” Nathan said as he used the remote to flicker through the channels on the television.

Nathan loved cars. Nelissa got him a couple of model cars but they were still incomparable to the real thing.

“A Porsche Cayenne isn’t something impressive though,” Edward commented casually.

“Uncle, do you have a sports car?” Nathan pointed at the supercar commercial on the television screen and asked.

“Yes, your Mommy drove it before,” Edward then whispered, “You can ask your Mommy to bring you over to my house and see it. I have more time at night.”

Edward had a hobby of collecting supercars. He had a couple of limited editions stashed away at his garage. His personal collection was far more impressive than what was shown on the television.

Nathan was intrigued. He wanted to take a peek at that!

“Uncle, please have a drink,” Noelle slowly carried two cups of water to the living room. She handed one cup to Edward and the other to the woman, “Please have a drink, Aunty.”

That woman bent down anxiously to receive the cup and her hands trembled slightly. She accidentally tipped the cup and spilled some water onto Noelle’s hands.

Edward hurled a sharp look towards her. That woman took out a handkerchief hurriedly to wipe Noelle’s hands, “I’m so sorry. Did it hurt?”

Noelle shook her head. The water was at room temperature.

That woman was relieved. She was trying to figure out Edward’s relationship with the two children. Were they his?

Come to think of it, the twins had quite well-defined features. And they somehow looked like Edward…

Could the mother of these children be Edward’s mistress?

The bathroom door opened and Nelissa stepped out. She sauntered towards the living room whilst drying her hair with a towel.

“Who was at the door?” Nelissa asked.

She almost choked on her own saliva when she saw the man sitting in the living room.

That other woman saw Nelissa and she, too, was shocked as well. She didn’t expect the mother of the twins to be that young.

“What are you doing here?” Nelissa almost passed out. Edward was sitting next to the twins watching television!

Edward noticed Nelissa’s flushed face and he raised his eyebrows, “Is your ankle still hurting? I’ve brought a doctor here to check up on you.”

“I’m fine!” Nelissa was flustered.

Edward patted on the empty spot beside him and said, “So? Do you want me to carry you here or are you going to come here yourself?”

Nelissa was anxious. She was very cautious around Edward in front of the twins. Fortunately, the twins didn’t seem to understand the innuendo.

Nelissa scurried next to Edward and he wrapped his arms around her waist. His other hands were on her knees and he playfully flicked the edge of her nightgown up.

Nelissa panicked and she bit her lips. She could feel the scalding warmth of Edward’s palm penetrating the thin layer of fabric. She desperately placed her hands on his palm and interlocked her hands with his.

She was afraid of what would come next.

Edward didn’t respond. The female doctor that came along with him was from St. Richard Medical Center.

She took out a first aid kit and squatted in front of Nelissa. She cleaned the injured ankle carefully and bandaged it.

Nelissa enjoyed the soothing rub. She closed her eyes in ecstasy as Edward never took his eyes off her.

“Nelly, does it hurt?” Nathan asked her solemnly.

“It doesn’t,” Nelissa smiled. She was touched by Nathan’s gesture of kindness.

Edward witnessed the exchange and was deep in thought.

He had lived thirty-four years of unparalleled success. He had all the power in the world but the girl that he loved was with someone else.

That sense of loss was haunting and she even had two kids with Zayden.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

The doctor left after she was done with Nelissa’s ankle. She left with the knowledge of the mystery girl that sent shockwaves throughout the city; this was the mystery girl that prompted Edward to command Susan into issuing a public apology.

Nelissa glared at Edward and said, “Aren’t you supposed to be somewhere else by now?”

Edward replied, “I have some questions for you.”

Nelissa glanced at the clock; it was almost ten at night. She needed to put the kids to bed.

She couldn’t risk allowing the kids to interact with their father any longer!

Nelissa got up but she was pulled down by Edward almost immediately. She sat down hastily, afraid that the twins might notice their interaction.

She leaned into Edward’s ears and whispered, “I need to tuck them into bed. It’s getting late.”

“Alright, go.” Edward withdrew his hands and leaned back on the couch. His head tilted sideways as he said, “I’ll wait for you.”

Nelissa nodded obediently and sent the twins into their room. The twins were still young and they didn’t really understand the romantic, intimate gestures between adults.

Nelissa put them to sleep with another story.

She stroked their heads gently as she watched their adorable faces slowly descend into a deep sleep.

She was exhausted as well. She decided to have a little shut-eye before heading back out.

An hour later, Nelissa was jerked awake. She grabbed the clock by the bed; it was eleven!

She was horrified as she ran out of the room as fast as her legs could carry her. As she closed the door behind her, she was greeted by Edward’s towering and masculine physique.

Nelissa backed into the door as Edward slowly slanted forward. “What took you so long? Do you want me to spend the night here?”

“Well, do you?” Edward teased.

Nelissa came to her senses and shook her head. She struggled to push him away. “I accidentally fell asleep just now. I didn’t mean to do it.”

“Tired?” Edward stood up straight and asked.

“Yes.” Nelissa rubbed her eyes and said.

“Walk me down then,” Edward took a look at her, picked up his coat, and headed for the door. Nelissa was surprised; was he going to leave?

At the garden downstairs, Edward walked towards his car. Nelissa followed closely behind. She just wanted to see him get into the car and be done for the day.

All of a sudden, she was dragged into the backseat of the car and the door was slammed shut.

Nelissa was shocked. Edward jammed his tongue down her throat forcibly and bit her lips playfully.

“There are children at home. I had to mind my manners. This is the perfect place to have some time to ourselves,” Edward chimed in between powerful puffs of air.

“Edward, please don’t! I don’t want to!” Nelissa screamed. Her eyes teared up as she yelled, “I will sue you!”

“And how do you plan to do that?” Edward withdrew his assault slightly and asked. “Do you need me to recommend you to an attorney? I’ll pay for the legal fees.”

“You just have to bear witness. I am looking forward to your testimony,” Edward teased.

Nelissa shivered. She thought of all the curses and slurs she knew in her mind!

Edward looked at her menacingly, “Why did you decline my calls?”

“I thought we were fine during lunch. What happened?” Edward said seductively.

Nelissa couldn’t tell if he was angry or if he was flirting with her.

“My phone died…” Nelissa struggled to open her mouth. Before she could finish her sentence, her tongue was invaded by Edward’s.
