In My Blood
Bella POV
My stupid alarm went off at four in the morning and I slammed down hard on the snooze button begging for just five more minutes. Today was the first of July and we were starting the television show promotions today. I had to be at a stupid photo shoot in an hour. I snuggled up closer to my pillow and tried to enjoy those few minutes I had left until my alarm went off again. I inhaled the scent on my pillow and grinned because it still smelled like Edward. Last night we had dinner here, and I made him watch the Notebook again. He hated it but watched it for me, which only made it that much more special to me. I always felt like the only woman in the world with him. As if no other person mattered just the two of us. If it wasn't for him having to fly out to New York last night for some stupid meeting; he had this morning he would have stayed the night. My alarm went off again and I dragged myself out of bed shutting the alarm off.
I rubbed my eyes as I walked to my bathroom to take my shower. I quickly dressed in a black and floral pattern skirt dress with a pair of four inch gladiator type shoes. I picked up my red Gucci purse since it matched the center of the flowers. I put on some ruby earrings and grabbed my white sunglasses. When I walked past my body length mirror I groaned, Alice had definitely rubbed off on me. I quickly head down stairs just as my phone chimes notifying me of a text message. I checked it seeing it was from Rosalie,
Leaving the house now, Chelsea said that Lauren is already there acting like a diva. ~R
Good god I hate that Alistair hired her back ~B
I texted back leaving my loft and heading down to the garage. I walked to my car and quickly jumped in when my phone chimed with Rose's reply.
Yeah me too, but she's good at reporting the news. Can read the hell out of a teleprompter who else could he possibly fine to do that LOL ~R
LOL you think he slept with her ~B
I don't think, I know. Last year's Christmas party ~R
OMG really, I was wondering why she was there ~B
I replied back then put my phone down to start the car. When I pulled out of the garage I groaned at the number of damn paparazzi were waiting outside of my building. When they spotted my car the camera's snapped and I quickly pulled off up the street. My phone chimed and I checked it when I hit a red light.
She's probably blackmailing him now ~R
Carmen will kill her ~B
I know that and you know that ~R
LOL, Wow! I'll be there soon. ~B
I texted back then proceeded driving through the streets of Chicago. I loved this city in the summer, but in the winter I wanted nothing more but to crawl in a whole and stay there until summer came back. I hated being snowed in; though being snowed with Edward was not a bad idea in the least. Thankfully it didn't take me long to arrive at the shoot. I parked and climbed out once again being spotted by the paparazzi. I swore I felt like they disgraced ever real reporter, they were scum invading the privacy of people.
"Isabella is it true that you are dating Edward Cullen?"
"Isabella a source says that you and your new co host are romantically involved, so which is it Cullen or Santana?"
The reporter asked and I rolled my eyes and entered the building. I hit the elevator and went to the assigned floor. When the doors opened to the floor I was greeted by a very hyper Alice.
"Bella I picked out the cutest outfits for you!"
She yelled and I plugged my ears with my fingers. "Alice why the hell are you so loud, at…" I paused and checked the time on my cell, "…5:15 in the morning?" I asked her, "Because she already had two cups of coffee." I hear Rosalie say. I turn to her voice and take the coffee cup she is offering to me.
"Thanks Rose."
I say placing the cup to my lips, "No problem. Melanie needs you guys to get ready for the shoot; Alice will show you to your dressing room." Rose tells me then she and Alice share a look,
"What?"
"You're sharing the dressing room with Lauren."
Alice says and I groan feeling myself about to act the diva part. There was no way I was about to share a dressing room with that little bitch.
"Bella I swear I already tried to change it, but they only have two dressing rooms here and the guys are in the other one."
Rosalie tells me, "Fine, can we just go and get this over with." I say and Alice takes me back to the room I would be in. Once we enter the room Lauren turns in her seat and smiles at me,
"Oh, look who it is, celebrity of the day."
Lauren says and I ignore her and follow Alice over to my station, "There are three outfits today, this yellow one with the brown belt and wooden buttons, this strapless grey one with the black belt, you'll wear this grey blazer over it since it's strapless and then this navy blue one with the folded skirt.
"Why are there three dresses for one shoot?"
"…Because Melanie wants to do it from three different angles'. The yellow gives it the warm welcoming feel, the grey one the sexy professional and the navy blue one gives the more serious journalist affect. Since the billboards will be pretty much nationwide they want to make sure the one placed in certain neighbours appeal to them."
Alice explains to me and I groan, I did not like this. I loved my job but the fame part of it was just ridiculous. It always surprised people that I could be on television everyday and still be shy, but what they fail to realize is that when I was in front of the camera there was only a hundred plus people behind the camera. I didn't think about the millions of people watching.
"Bella you can do this."
Alice encourages me and I nod my head and tell her to come on so we can just be over with it already. She starts with my hair curling and feathering it.
"So Bella is it true you've slept with Carlos?"
Lauren asked me and growl under my breath, "Oh come on you can tell me. He already told Mike, bragging that you two would hook up for sure." Lauren continued and I inhaled a deep breath trying to ignore her. I knew she was only trying to get a reaction out of me.
"Lauren why don't you shut up and finish letting Toni stuff your bra."
Alice says and I laugh, "Screw you Alice, your just a make-up girl." Lauren says and I'm tired of hearing Lauren's mouth so I turn around and say,
"She's my personal stylist. One that gets paid a hell of a lot more then you do, so shut it."
"What the hell do you mean she gets paid more than me?"
"I mean exactly what I just said."
"I'm calling Alistair."
"It won't make a difference. I pay Alice not the station Lauren."
I reply turning back in my seat. When I look in the mirror I see Alice smiling at me. It was no secret, Alice didn't need this job. She wanted it and I loved having her around. Lauren inhales and is quiet now as we both finish getting our hair done. I dress in the Yellow dress first and Lauren is wearing a light blue dress. Toni joked that she was the sky and I was the sun. She grumbled and stormed out the room causing Toni to yell out "Tornado warning!" We all laugh and go out onto the floor and Mike and Carlos come out at the same time. They both smile at me,
"Bella you look beautiful as always."
Carlos says to me and I smile, "Thank you Carlos." I reply. I hear Rose and Alice laughing behind me and I tell them both to shut it. The photographer Melanie comes out and calls all of us onto the set. She positions us where she wants us for the first sets of photo's and tells us to smile and laugh as if we are having a great time. I never portrayed a fake smile for so long in my life. Mike and Carlos took turns placing their hands on my waist when we stood for a group picture and I slapped their hands away the moment Melanie finished the picture.
"Ok I need to do two for two, Bella you and Carlos first."
She says and I grumble as we pretend to be laughing it up over a newspaper we are holding that had the shows name 'Wake up America' written on the front. After Carlos and I are finished it is then Lauren and I turn to take pictures together and we pretend to be chatting it up over a cup of coffee. We all took turns like this and then Melanie asked us to change our outfits. I was surprised to see two hours passed while we were on the set just now, and I still had to do this two more times. I was going to die.
I change into the strapless grey dress and Alice does my hair this time in an up due and changes my makeup. This alone took another hour. I now understood Rosalie when she said the photo shoot was an all day thing.
"Bella look what just came for you."
I hear Rosalie say from behind me. I turn around and see her entering the room carrying a large bouquet of roses. I bit my lip looking at how beautiful they were; light pink more like white with dark pink tips. They were all blossomed and looked so rich, they were amazing. She brought them over to me placing them on the counter in front of me.
"Bella these are beautiful who are they from?"
Toni asked admiring the bouquet. I already know who they are from without even having to look for the card. So instead I lean in and smell them. I see Lauren jump up out of the corner of my eye and she snatches the card from the bouquet,
"To my Isabella, These Roses are just to show that I appreciate you and the wonderful, great, beautiful woman you are. Yours alone, Edward."
Lauren reads out loud and Rosalie quickly snatches the card out of her hand. "As in, the Edward Cullen? Oh my god you are dating him aren't you?" Toni says with entirely too much excitement. Rosalie hands me the card and I quickly pick up my purse and slide it into my wallet.
"Seriously Bella it's rather pathetic to send Roses to yourself and put a man like Edward Cullen's name on the card, don't you think."
Lauren says with a stupid smile on her face. I inhale a deep breath preparing to lay into her thick, when I realize there was no way for me to do it without telling her that we were indeed a couple. Telling her would be like me walking outside and telling the paparazzi.
"Lauren do me a favour, worry about Carmen finding out about you fucking her husband instead of my love life. She will fire and ruin you before she leaves him you stupid bitch."
I said and everyone in the room jaws dropped in surprise. I turn back to the mirror and tell Alice to finish up my makeup so that I could finish this and get the hell out of here. It stayed quiet until Rosalie broke out into hysterical laughter repeating what I said over and over again though honestly you could hardly make out what she was saying.
"It's not true."
Lauren says turning back to the mirror, "And yet I bet your ass won't say shit else to Bella will you?" Rosalie says then she left the dressing room still laughing. Once I was dressed we all went back on set and started on our next round of photos. With the way the guys were looking at me I was grateful for the blazer I was wearing over the dress.
When Lauren and I had to do our photo together I smiled because she looked completely pissed. We gave our fake smiles and posed together as if we were the best of friends. When it was the guys turn I sat down and Alice joked that I should win an Emmy for such a great job at pretending to like Lauren. I laugh and get ready to reply but I'm interrupted by a commotion at the elevators.
"I know it's a damn private shoot now get the hell out of my way."
I hear a familiar voice say and though he sounded harsh I knew it was the voice of my lovely boyfriend. I turn to see him and Emmett coming off of the elevators walking past the security guard that was standing there. I quickly get up from my seat and approach him with a smile on my face,
"You're back early."
"That's what happens when you own your own jet, you don't have to wait."
He tells me with that damn crooked grin on his face. "You are such a spoiled brat." I reply and he laughs stepping closer to me. I knew we had an audience but with him standing in front of me, looking at me the way he was doing right now I didn't seem to care.
"Did you get the roses?"
"Yes, and they were beautiful."
"They pale in comparison to my gorgeous girlfriend. By the way, have you seen her?"
He joked, "Ass." I say when I pinch his arm. He pulled me against him and planted a searing kiss on my lips. I melted into him and he took my lip into his mouth. I feel his hand resting just above my ass and I moan into his mouth when he presses me against him. He pecks my lips and says,
"Moan like that again and I'll put you over my shoulder and take you back to my place."
I feel my cheeks heat up and I place another peck on his lips, "I missed you." I inform him with I will admit a pout.
"I missed you too, why do you think I'm back early."
He says and I smile biting on my lip again, "Are you two love birds done, I need her for this next shot." I hear Melanie say from behind me and I laugh dropping my head on his chest. He kisses the top of my head,
"Go ahead I'll wait right here."
He tells me and I nod my head and walk back over to the shoot. I smile at a dumbfounded Lauren as I take my place on set to take some more group photos. I saw the scowl on Edward's face when Mike or Carlos placed their hands on my waist, when we all stood together. True Melanie told them to, but Mike's and Carlos' gentle squeeze did not go unnoticed.
"Alright, we're done with this set."
Melanie says putting her camera down. "Is this a break I would like to take my girlfriend out for brunch?" Edward says placing a hard emphasis on the word my. It also didn't go unnoticed that he just told everyone in the room that I was his girlfriend, though I guess that kiss already confirmed that.
"Um sure Mr. Cullen everyone be back in an hour."
Melanie says and I shake my head and approach Edward, "Why do I feel like you just bullied her into giving everyone a break?" I ask him and he gives me that crooked grin again.
"Ali, Rose, you ladies joining us?"
He asked avoiding my question; they both agree. Well Alice agreed while Rose was honestly wrapped up in Emmett. Alice pouted and said she missed her Jazzy. I look up at Edward and watch his face go hard and then I know why when I hear Carlos behind me say,
"Damn Bella I guess that date tonight is out of the question uh?"
Now I'm not sure if he was joking or serious but the look on Edward's face said he didn't give a damn. "…Unless you plan on your family finding you in Lake Michigan." Edward replied so only the three of us heard him and that completely caught me by surprise. I turned and saw that Carlos face had turned red now,
"Edward he was joking."
"Yeah man Bella and I go way back."
Carlos says and I want him to just shut up already, "I know, and let's keep it there." Edward says holding me around my waist tighter then he was before. Carlos walks away without another word. I turn around and look up at Edward,
"That wasn't necessary."
"Maybe, but I don't like the way he was looking at you."
"What way?"
"You wouldn't see it, it's a man thing."
Edward replies and I roll my eyes at that remark, "Carlos knows there is nothing happening between him and I, and I hope you know that too."
I say and Edward looks down into my eyes, "I know it's just…" He stops and shakes his head and asks me if I'm ready to go. I told him I needed to change out of this outfit first. "I would like it a lot more if you kept it on; you look mouth watering in it." He tells me and I blush, and ask Alice if I am allowed to go outside in the dress since we are using it for the shoot.
"I don't see why not the company didn't buy it, I did."
She tells me and that was enough for me. I removed the blazer seeing that it was too hot outside to wear, and then I grab my purse. I catch Edward's eyes and blush at how intensely he was watching me. The five of us leave for whatever restaurant Edward was taking us to. Naturally the paparazzi were asking a million and one questions seeing Edward and I together. Edward only made it worse when he wrapped his hand around my waist walking me to the car. When went to a little bistro and of course we had no trouble getting a table with Edward Cullen with us. We were seated at a private corner table Edward requested saying this way the paparazzi wouldn't be able to get a clear picture of us this way and ruin our meal. Rose and Emmett sat across from us and Alice sat next to me.
"Lauren almost shit bricks when the two of you kissed."
Alice said and Rosalie and I laughed. They guys looked confused so we told Emmett and Edward what happened and they laughed at what my response to her was.
"Edward I think she'll do just fine on Saturday with your sliver tongued ass family members."
Emmett says and I look at Edward, I knew that Saturday was Edward's family cookout and I was beyond nervous. "Are they all like Emily?" I ask and Emmett laughs,
"No she's one of a kind, thankfully."
Edward says laughing, "Don't worry about it love, they'll love you. You're hard not to love." He tells me leaning into me and placing a kiss on my lips. What he said didn't go unnoticed to me and I wanted to ask him if he loved me because I was more than certain I was falling in love with him. I was too afraid to ask so instead I kissed him as passionately as he was kissing me right now.
"So are the two of you going public or something, because you are both getting more careless with this public affection?"
Rosalie says and I pull my lips from Edward's and smile, "No official statements at the moment, but they can speculate." I reply and Edward's eyes glow from my words and he pulls my chair closer to him and I giggle. He places a kiss on my neck and I squeeze his thigh under the table and massage it. I blush when I feel his erection twitch against my hand. "That's what you do to me on the daily basis, Isabella..." He says breathing against my ear. "…especially in this dress." He finishes, I tell him to behave and he actually pouts, I had to admit it was cute on him. We order our food and have a nice brunch together, joking around about Saturday; it didn't surprise me at all when Emmett asked Rose to go with him. Alice said she was thankful she wasn't going because she would probably kill Emily the next time she saw her. Honestly I worried that Rose and I might do the same. When they take us back to the shoot, Seth drives to the back entrance to get away from the press. Everyone climbs out leaving Edward and I alone and I pout because I don't want to get out of the car.
"You can spend the night at my place, or I could stay at yours."
Edward says nibbling on my ear. I bit back a moan feeling my panties becoming damp, "That sounds like a great idea, and either place is fine with me." I reply and I can feel his mouth against my neck. He places his hand on my thigh and slowly slides it up under my dress. I was literally about to come just from his caresses.
"My place, my bed is bigger and I want you Isabella."
He says and I quickly turn my head to look at him. "Tonight?" I ask him and he nods his head, "Every night love, but we can start with tonight." He replies with a grin and yup I devoured his mouth and came like nobody's business when his fingers brushed over my clit. Emmett's large hand banging on the roof of the car broke us apart and I laughed embarrassed.
"Is tonight alright with you?"
He asked me and I blushed when I said, "Right now is alright with me." Edward laughs cupping my face, "Our first time will not be in the back of this car, maybe our tenth." He says and I bit my lip smiling and my cheeks have to be a deep red by now.
"Can you two come on; we can't stay parked in the back this long."
Emmett says and I kiss Edward's lips again and tell him I'll see him later. He tells me to go home and pack and that he'll have Seth pick me up and bring me to his office. I complain that I can drive and he says that he would feel better if Seth picked me up in case James showed up outside of my place again. I didn't argue mostly because I didn't have the time. I kissed his lips again unable to resist and told him I couldn't wait to see him later.
Edward POV
I sat behind my desk and looked over the spread sheets Veronica just brought to my attention. I inhaled a deep breath seeing the drop in last month's numbers, it wasn't as large as the month before but it was obvious money was still being taken from the company. When Benjamin called me while I was in Washington it was to let me know that he found out that Sony had their hands on our blue print for the new netbook tablet. Of course my fucking Vice president had no idea how that happened.
"Veronica I'm going to have someone put a new code on your computer, only you, I and he will have it."
I inform her and she nods her head. "Hannah, call Riley Biers and let him know I need him to come in today." I say to the new assistant Jessica hired for me. This time I made certain to look into her credentials before I told Jessica to notify her that she had the job. I trusted Jessica but after the mess with Samantha I did not need a repeat.
"Yes, Mr. Cullen do you need anything else?"
Hannah asked me and I told her to call Victoria up to my office and to let Royce know he had until four today to get the files I asked for on my desk. She nodded her head and exited the room quickly. Veronica still stood in front of me biting her lip.
"Mr. Cullen I swear to you I have nothing to do with whoever is taking this money."
"I believe you Veronica but whoever asks you about that code on your computer once it's put on is not to get it and you are to notify me that they asked you."
"Yes Sir Mr. Cullen."
"Also Veronica I just want you to know that you're doing a great job, and I appreciate your loyalty to the company."
I tell her and she looks surprised by my words. I couldn't blame her; I didn't praise my employee's often. Alright before Isabella chewed my ear off about it I didn't praise them at all.
"Uh Thank You Mr. Cullen, I enjoy working for Masen Corp."
She replies to me, I smile at her and let her know she can go now. I drop the spread sheet on my desk and run my fingers through my hair.
"Mr. Cullen I have Time Magazine on the line."
Jessica says coming on over the intercom. If Jessica was telling me this I knew that they were not calling about Masen Corporation.
"What do they want Jessica?"
"To ask about your relationship with Ms. Swan, they claim to be doing an article on hot celebrity couples and would like to know if you are interested."
Jessica informs me and I honestly have to say it would be the perfect way to go public, but I needed to talk to Isabella first. Honestly the sneaking around was driving me crazy and though Isabella was right it wouldn't make the press back off. I wanted everyone to know we were together, I almost kicked Carlos ass at his little remark. Isabella didn't see his face when he said it and that was what really pissed me off.
I wouldn't be able to survive being discreet with her by my side for much longer, so it was either time magazine or I would be standing on the tallest building in Chicago and shouting that I was falling in love with Isabella Swan, "Wait what?" I said out loud completely caught off guard by my thoughts. Did I love Isabella? We've only known each other for five months and been dating for less than that. I hear Jessica repeating what she said. I figure she must have thought I was talking to her when I shouted,
"Jessica, tell them I'm in a meeting and to try back tomorrow."
I reply, "No problem." She says and the light goes out letting me know she disconnected from our conversation. I would talk to Isabella tonight about going public. There was a knock at my door and I knew if they got past Jessica it was someone I needed to talk to.
"Come in."
I yell and the door opens. Victoria walks in and she is holding a stake of magazines in her hand. "You called for me Mr. Cullen?" She asked and I motioned for her to take a seat.
"I want you to release a statement from the company about the expansion of the new hotel and it's opening next year."
"Yes Sir."
She says writing it down, "Also there was another drop in sales, make sure that doesn't get out." I inform her and again she nods her head and writes it down.
"What's with the magazines?"
I ask her and she looks up at me, "Most of the calls I've been getting are about you and Bella, I mean Ms. Swan. They want to know if she is working here, or if the two of you are dating. I am a P.R for Masen Corp not your personal life Mr. Cullen." Victoria says and this catches me by surprise,
"I didn't ask you to speak on my personal life because you know nothing about it. Just continue to tell them no comment."
"Fine, but you do know she was married to James before don't you? I mean Mr. Cullen she is practically the enemy herself, she could crumble this company with the information she knows. She's probably leeching just to get the story of her career."
Victoria tells me and I run my fingers through my hair annoyed, "Victoria I appreciate your concern about the company, but my relationship with Ms. Swan has nothing to do with Masen and it will stay that way. I also think it would be in your best interest to be mindful when you talk about her." I reply between clenched teeth and she inhales a deep breath and nods her head. I dismiss her and she exits the room quickly. I sit back in my seat and rub my hands over my face. Victoria was right about one thing, Isabella could crumble this company and me with the information she knew.
I moved the mouse on my desk waking my computer up and I smile because I have Isabella on my desktop. Isabella might have had the information to ruin me but I knew she would never use it to do that. I took a picture of her the night she stayed at my place and she was sleeping and mumbling my name. It was extremely interesting to watch her sleep, hear her call my name. I finished up some more work and Royce dropped off the file I asked for a quarter to four. I warned him that he was cutting it close and he apologized with some bogus excuse. I dismissed him then continued working when I received a text from Isabella.
Seth just came to pick me up, be there soon ~B
Look forward to it, love. ~E
I replied just when Hannah entered my office with Riley Biers. I told him what I needed him to do and called Veronica in so they could meet. Riley explained it to her and she looked lost. I told him to go ahead and place the code on her computer. I wrote the new pass code down on a sheet of paper and gave it to Riley. They left my office and I told Hannah to let Isabella right back when she arrived,
"Sure thing Mr. Cullen, would you like me to order you and Ms. Swan something to eat?"
"Yes and remember…"
"Ms. Swan cannot eat shell fish. I remember because it was on the important things to remember list, also Mr. Cullen I think you and Ms. Swan make a lovely couple."
Hannah says with a blush, "I'll go order you both something right now." She continues then she exits the room. I smile and go back to the work on my computer. Jessica comes on over the intercom letting me know that Benjamin needed to see me. I assure to allow him back, I watch him enter and he takes a seat in front of my desk. "What is it Benjamin?" I ask him knowing he wasn't coming in here with good news.
"Sony has started their prototype for the tablet, their behind because they don't have our technology but they have started constructing it."
"…And you still have no idea how this happened right?"
"I have an idea."
He says and I sit back with my eye brow raised, "Really? Who?" I ask curious to hear what he has come up with. He begins to tell me that he found out that Royce had been meeting with Sony about a job with them, also that Royce had been asking a lot of questions surrounding the status on the tablet. I pick up my phone and call down to tech and ask for Paul.
"Hello Mr. Cullen."
"Paul has Royce been down there asking about the status on the tablet?"
"Funny you should ask that, he just left."
Paul tells me and I look at Benjamin, "Do not tell him anything else about the tablet." I inform him and he tells me that he didn't. He told Royce that he couldn't give him any information without talking to me first.
"Good, how close are we?"
"Possibly it will be ready for the convention in September and ready to hit the market as soon as mid October."
"Great Job Paul, Keep the tablet under tight security unless I call you first no one is allowed down there if they do not work in tech."
I inform him, and then I hang up the phone. "Your grandfather would be proud of you; you're running this company like he did." Benjamin says and I smile. Benjamin worked eleven years for my grandfather; he was the only man I knew my grandfather hired personally. There was another knock at the door followed by Isabella's voice asking if it was alright for her to come in.
"Of course."
I reply and she walks in wearing a little black dress with a floral skirt. It was short as fuck and showed off her gorgeous legs. Her sunglasses rested on the top of her head holding her thick curls back from falling in front of her face. She smiled at me with a blush and I quickly stood up to greet her. She looks at Benjamin but I wave for her to come to me. I see Benjamin watching her and I want to break his nose for glaring at her the way he was doing.
I took Isabella's hand and pulled her to me placing a kiss on her lips. "You look amazing, love." I whisper against her lips and she takes my bottom lip into her mouth snaking her hand up my chest and into my hair. Then I hear Benjamin clears his throat and I place one good deep kiss on her lips and then glare at Benjamin,
"Is there a problem?"
"This is a business…"
"Yes my business and my office…"
I say and I feel Isabella hand tighten on my back then she makes small circles as if to calm me. "Can I be blunt and honest with you Edward?" He asked me and I inhale a deep breath and nod my head,
"Do you really believe this…"
He says waving his hand at Isabella and I, "…is a good idea. You are putting the company in jeopardy again because of some woman." He continues and I look at him with a raised brow,
"What the hell is that suppose to mean?"
"I only mean that you haven't been focused, you get distracted by these women. Also that she works for KBC news channel only makes it worse."
"Edward knows I would never do anything to hurt him, or this company."
"No offense young lady, but that's what they all say."
Benjamin replies and I've heard enough. "Benjamin my personal life will not affect MY Company. You don't know a damn thing about Isabella or anything else for that matter. Now I respect you because you were a good man to my grandfather, but you will not stand in my fucking office and disrespect me and especially not her." I bark and Isabella starts those small circles on my back again,
"I'm sorry Edward I didn't mean to, I just know your grandfather wouldn't approve of it…"
"…get out Benjamin."
I say cutting him off, "I'm only saying that you are risking a lot for her and I hope you both understand that. I love this company as if I had the Masen blood in my veins and I don't want to see it fall apart." Benjamin says and I point to the door saying nothing verbally. He nods his head tells us to have a good night and exits the room. Isabella stands in front of me now placing my face between her hands.
"I would never do anything to hurt you Edward, you mean everything to me."
She says and I take one of her hands from my cheek and kiss her palm. I smiled from her declaration, because she meant everything to me as well. "I know you wouldn't Isabella, fuck everything he said. How did the rest of the shoot go?" I ask and she starts to laugh,
"Lauren all of a sudden became my best friend."
"Hey you never know maybe she can start having girls night with you ladies."
I tease and she slaps my chest, "No funny. I also think you scared the hell out of Carlos, he look afraid to talk to me." I smile proud of that,
"Good."
"Not good Edward. He and I have this job because of our great television chemistry, the rest of the shoot was so awkward."
"As long as he understands you are my woman, we have no problem."
I reply and she rolls her eyes at me, "You sound like a caveman." She says pulling away from me and I hit my chest with my fist and say,
"You my woman, me not share."
She tosses her head back laughing hysterically and there is a knock at the door. I tell whoever it is to come in and Hannah enters with are food.
"Hello Ms. Swan, oh I love your shoes."
Hannah says and Isabella smiles, "Hi Hannah and thank you, though they are killer on my feet." Isabella replies and Hannah places are food down on the coffee table in the sitting portion of my office.
"Maybe Mr. Cullen could give you a foot massage."
Hannah says with a smile and Isabella laughs, "Best idea I've heard all day." Isabella agrees smiling at me. I kiss her forehead and whisper in her ear that I planned to massage more than just her feet. Isabella cheeks turns that shade of pink I loved on her, honestly it was why I picked the color roses I did, they reminded me of when I would make her blush.
"Do you need anything else Mr. Cullen?"
"No Hannah, you and Jessica can actually finish up those reports and leave for the day."
"Alright, have a good night Mr. Cullen you too Ms. Swan."
Hannah says we tell her good night and she leaves my office, "I like her." Isabella says and I laugh walking over to the couch.
"Not surprised, when I checked her credentials I saw she was in school for journalism and was here to finish paying for school. Jessica said when she interviews her, she actually asked if there was a chance she would be meeting you since she heard you would be working here."
I reply and Isabella laughs. Isabella sits down next to me and we eat while I look over the last bit of work I had for the night. It honestly wasn't the last but it would be because I had someone to tend to tonight that needed and deserved my undivided attention. I watched her eat and I even though that was sexy when she did it. I thought about how I wanted to take her to some of my favourite places, let the world see the goddess that I called my girlfriend. I them remembered Time magazine's call earlier,
"Isabella how do you feel about us going public?"
"It doesn't bother me; I mean this press is already up our ass anyway."
She answers and I smile, "But Edward we are not doing some huge press conference." She continues and a deep laugh comes from my gut.
"That's not what I was thinking, at all though it may not be a bad idea."
I joke and she slaps my arm with a smile, "Seriously though love, Time magazine called me about some celebrity couple special they are doing and wanted to know if we were interested. It's honestly just them wanting to be the first to have the confirmation, but if I'm going to trust any form of media to so this it would be them." I inform her and she nods her head,
"So I have to be in a magazine for millions to see?"
"It will be the same millions that see your billboards."
I reply and she groans putting her head on my shoulder. "Plus at least this time it will be with someone you like." I say and she laughs,
"What do you think?"
"I think it would be the best way to go public, not flashy."
"When is the stupid magazine doing the article?"
She asked and I laughed, "I don't know, I told them to call back tomorrow so I could talk to you first." I reply and she takes my hand and laces our fingers,
"What if we do this making it all in print and final, and then you break up with me and I have that stupid magazine as a reminder?"
"Isabella I could never leave you, you've imprinted on all of my senses ruining me for other women. So the question should be What if you break up with me and I have that stupid magazine as a reminder?"
I ask in return and she looks up at me from under her lashes. "I would never break up with you Cullen; you're kind of stuck with me until you get tired of me." She says with a deeper blush hitting her cheeks. I lift her face and run my thumb over her bottom lip,
"I could never get tired of you Isabella."
I enlighten her, and then I lower my lips to kiss her hard on the mouth. Her fingers enter my hair fisting it and making me groan into her mouth. I quickly lift her up into my lap and she straddles me. She then grinds into my erection while gently sucking on my tongue. I grip the back of her neck fisting her hair and pressing her lips tighter against mine. I wanted to inhale her, consume her, and have her in every way possible. I could tell when she was struggling to catch her breath so I release her mouth and placed kisses along her jaw and neck.
"Edward you are driving me insane."
She husked out against my ear still grinding her hips into me, "Damn it Isabella that feels good." I say when she presses down and swivel her hips. The only thing separating us was our damn clothes. I press my hand into her mid back when I suck the skin on her neck into my mouth. She groans and bucks against me. I travel my other hand over her bare legs until it's filled with one of her perfect ass cheeks. Feeling her flesh in my hand made me want to touch more of her so I slid my fingers into her underwear and glided then along her folds.
"Mm, baby that feels good."
She moaned and I licked from her collar bone to her ear, I take the jewel lobe into my mouth, "I want you to come around my fingers, can you do that for me?" I say entering two fingers inside of her, fuck she was so wet. She gripped my shoulders and nodded her head yes to my question. I slowly pump my fingers in and out of her watching her face as I did this. Her lips were parted, her eyes fluttering closed and her face a dark pink. She looked beautiful. I swirled and curled my fingers inside of her and she started to rock against my hand.
"I'm close…"
She moaned and I palmed her rubbing over her clit, she whimpered wrapping her arms around me and riding my hand faster. I picked up my pace needing her to come, watching her gave me pleasure. She fisted my hair again and I took her mouth massaging and finger her faster and faster. She moaned into my mouth and then I felt her tighten around me.
"Come on love, come for me."
I whisper against her lips and she does after a few more strokes of my fingers. I devour her mouth as my cock grows painfully begging to be inside of her soft, wet, tight folds. Fuck I needed to feel her come around my cock next time or I was going to die.
"Uh I want to do that again, but wrapped around your dick."
Isabella says in my ear pulling on my belt buckle. I stop her hands and she pouts, god that fucking pout was adorable. "I thought you said tonight." She says and I cup her face with my hand,
"Yes tonight Isabella. I want you; I want you too much for it to be quick because we're in my office. I want to savour the moment, to feed on it and prolong it. I'll want you again and again and again."
I inform her placing kiss after kiss on her lips. She bits down on her bottom lip looking at me, "Then I think you need to get home Mr. Cullen." Comes her reply. We both get up and I shut off everything in my office and we quickly leave for my place. I planned to make love to Isabella for the rest of the night and most of tomorrow morning before I had to drag myself back into work.
Narrators POV
Edward sat on the bed and waited for her to exit the bathroom. He ran his fingers through his hair feeling as nervous as a virgin on his first night. He pulled the sheets back on the bed, made sure the wine he brought into the room was still chilled, and changed the lighting in the room a few times before he was satisfied with it. He couldn't stop worrying that he would mess up somehow, say the wrong thing, touch her the wrong way, or come before she does. It was a man's worse nightmare to mess up the first time you sleep with your woman.
Bella stood inside of the bathroom with much of the same thoughts, what if she couldn't please him, what if he went soft once he saw her naked, what if she doesn't live up to his fantasy? It was eating her alive, but she wanted him. She looked herself over again in the mirror and admired the black negligee, with red trimming she wore. She brought it after she left the photo shoot, knowing what they planned to do tonight. It all made her nervous and she wanted to make certain she appealed to him. She messed her hair to give the sex look and inhaled a deep breath.
Edward inhaled deeply hearing the door knob turn. When the door opened his mouth fell ajar at the goddess that stood looking back at him. Bella bit down on her lip as her cheeks flushed from the obvious desire she saw in his eyes. How could I have thought he wouldn't find me attractive? She asked herself, Edward gave her that crooked grin she loved so much and she almost melted in the matching panties she was wearing. Edward got up from the bed and walked over to her.
"You look…fuck you look amazing Isabella."
He tells her having trouble forming words as he looked at her. "I take that as you like it." She says and he cups her face and places a kiss on her lips to show just how much he like it. His lips were warm and sweet against hers and she wanted him, she wanted to feel his cock inside of her. Edward kissed her slowly, savoring the taste and feel of her mouth. It was with a much more gentle tenderness then she was used to and it took her breath away. Edward encouraged her to part her lips needing to taste more of her. When she did, she felt his thick tongue, warm, moist and searching for hers. Bella wrapped her arms around him pressing into him and eagerly returning his kiss.
"Bed. Now."
She gets out between kisses and Edward quickly picks her up. Bella wraps her arms and legs around him as their lips never break apart. Once they reach the bed Edward slowly lowers her and presses his erection into her, wanting her to feel what she was doing to him. She moans against his mouth and fist his hair deepening their kiss. Edward slides his hands over her smooth thighs and gripped her ass pressing her against him.
"You have on too many clothes Isabella."
He told her placing a kiss on her jaw now, Bella giggled and his dick twitched in response to the sweet noise. "Then take them off Edward." She replies and he peels her clothing off slowly kissing every creamy part of her skin he revealed. He lingered for a long time over her breast, sucking, and licking until she whimpered how badly she needed him. When he removed her silk panties he places an opened mouth kiss on her pretty folds and her hips rose from the bed for more. Edward smiled spreading her legs and then slowly licking along each crease and wrinkle, sucking in and swirling his tongue around what entered his mouth. He consumed her loving her sweet taste. She was in his blood whether he was ready to admit it or not and there was no getting rid of her, ever.
Bella could feel the build-up in her stomach and she knew she wasn't going to last much longer. His tongue was thick, long, gifted, and perfect. She couldn't think anymore when she felt his amazing tongue enter her. Her legs tighten around his head and she fists his hair in her hand as she guides him to stay where he is. She cries out as her release hits her hard. Edward takes in all over her juices moaning from the pleasure he was getting from tasting her. Once her legs relaxed around him and he came up from between her thighs and placed a kiss on her lips. He then stood up and undressed.
Bella sat up on her elbows and watched him. A fresh surge of dampness came over her watching and admiring him. He had an absolutely beautiful body with broad shoulders, hard abs, and narrow hips with that delicious V leading down to his large thick cock with the bulging solid pink head.
"You're beautiful Edward."
She tells him and he smiles, "No love you're the beautiful one in this relationship." He informs her reaching for a condom and sheathing his self. He slips in between her thighs, hovering over her. His dick rubbed against her folds and they both closed their eyes from the warmth and touch.
"Are you sure Isabella?"
"Yes."
She answers him breathlessly. Edward's dick presses into her clit and then into her entrance. Their eyes lock as he begins to enter her, he groans at how tight she feels around him, warm, moist. He takes his time inch by glorious inch and she inhales welcoming him into her body. He filled her tight space, stretching her to accommodate the length of him. Once he feels her fully he starts to move in slow, measured strokes, they're mind numbing torturous strokes leaving her wanting, needing more of him. Edward placed his hand by her head and deepened his stokes. Bella felt her orgasm already and it was tight, dominating her senses. Edward felt her and knew she was coming.
"Let go."
He tells her against her ear pushing deeper into her. Bella elevates her legs allowing Edward to slip deeper inside of her and they both moan. She was so; warm, tight and soft like velvet and he wanted to stay in her forever. When he pushed into her again, Isabella convulsed around him and he had to freeze his movement to keep from exploding. Her breathing was uneven as she tried to contain it. Edward kisses her cheeks, nose and forehead telling her how great it felt feeling her come around him. He starts his strokes again and Bella pushes her hips up from the bed to meet his downward thrust.
"Harder."
She orders and he hitches her leg over his hip. He pumps harder into her and she fists her hands tighter into his hair moaning his name over and over again. "Ah you feel amazing Isabella." He says into her ear gripping her hair into his hand and she whimpers her reply. When he gyrates his hips banging into her repeatedly her next orgasm is close, stronger than the previous. Edward could feel every muscle of her walls working, sucking him in and claiming him.
Having her wrapped around him inflamed an inferno far beyond any passion he ever experienced. Never had he given, taken and shared like he was doing with her. His thrust was demanding, wild and needy as he united their bodies repeatedly in a fiery passion. Her nails dug into his back with every thrust, and moan of his name escaping from her lips. He devoured her mouth, drowning out her whimpers of passion when he quickened his pace.
He knew he wouldn't last when she came around him again so he kisses her lips with more desire burning through his blood and strokes her faster and harder as she gasped out in satisfaction. The kiss grows heated, desperately needing the other like a life line. Bella places her hand on his back feeling his muscles flex with every re-entry he made into her body.
"Come with me, love."
He told her and she rolled her hips in response driving him crazy, "Edward please…" she moaned and he interlaced their hands and pummelled into her. They looked at each other never breaking eye contact and saw the unspoken words resting in the other's eyes. Their coming together came sudden and hard, Isabella shuddered under him speaking incoherently and unable to control his body anymore he came being hit by her explosive rush washing over him. Yes, she is it for me, He told his self as he kissed her lips, jaw, and neck.
They finally did it! And the photo shoot was priceless, I love them!
