Harrison's POV

It's been three days since I told my assistant to get me any lady for a contract marriage. He still hasn't gotten back to me. Being the CEO of the biggest company in London. My company produces the best AI games that are mostly played in the world. It's all my Dad left before he decided to join his ancestors. He actually decided because he killed himself. 

I checked my fiance's location and I saw the United States. I placed a call through

" Hey hun, how are you doing?" she sounded sweet.

" I'm fine, how are you"

" I'm tired babe, I've been shooting since yesterday night.

" Really, where exactly?" I asked. I needed her to say United States, I needed to know about it.

" California"

This is the third time she'd be lying to me. As I was still on the call, my spy in the US just sent me three reasonable pictures on my laptop. And there was my fiance, kissing and munching on someone's lips. It was a disgusting sight. I'm not really surprised, she has no idea I own this company. 

" Hello, babe are you there" I had no idea what to make of her. I really love Serena, a lot. Like really really. But she's been sleepy around like a lost dog. A woman with no standards…I'll make her realize, I don't play with emotions.

" I'm busy. Bye, "I said and hung up. " California eh, indeed" I stood up and straightened my suit

" Alexa how do I look" I said to the AI

" You look good, but I can't say for certain"

" At least you're not in California. What on my schedule for evening"

" You do not have anything to do this evening" she said

" Alright then, I'll be off.

I left the company and luckily, my assistant called.

" Took you five years," I said. "Did you find her?"

" Yes boss, I found one".

" What's her name?"

" Eleanor," he said.

" Eleanor? Fucking lame. I'll meet both of you tomorrow in skylone". I said and hung up. I hope this contract marriage is really a good idea. At least mom would stop asking for a wife all the time. I wondered if that was how she ended up with my dad. Driving out of the underground parking lot, I drove straight to mansion Mason. I named all my Mansions and this is the one I go to whenever I want to be alone

I only have few maids there unlike skylone. Mason is located in a private area which had absolute silence. I drove in and soon entered and went straight to my room. Sitting on the couch, I checked my phone again to go through the pictures. They were up to 9 now, the people Serena has been sleeping with. Even if she did wanted to fornicate, she could have taking the ring I used to propose to her off.

" Wait a minute" I said to myself as I zoomed in on the picture. " She wasn't wearing my ring" I threw my phone somewhere and I know I'll soon be full of rage.

" Fuck this Lady" I took my car and went to the nearest club. I took little shots of vodka. Didn't even ask the bartender what they were. After drinking a little more, I tried searching for a suitable lady, but the ladies here are what I'd call worn out. They all looked pretty thanks to the makeover.  

"Sir, would you like anything? You shouldn't just sit like that in a club" a female bartender said to me. Now she was what I was looking for.

" Well then, I'll have a room"

" Now that's more like it," she said pouring me some drinks. I drank one and looked straight into her eyes.

" If you don't mind, can you show me the way there? I want a VIP room" I said

She smiled then smirked. She looked at me and I fixed my gaze on her perfect eyes that glowed in the club lights.

" Let's go," she said, taking a key and leading the way. She let us pass a lot of rooms and finally, we came to a grand room. It's nothing compared to my room but it was terrific.

" Here you are" she said

" And would you like to warm my bed up for me" I walked close to her and locked the door. Continued " miss….."

" Caro" she completed.

I moved very close to her until her back reached the wall. 

" I'll get straight to business" with that, I kissed her neck, Making my tongue find its way up to her earlobe.

"Hmmm" she moaned.

" I've not even gotten started" I said against her ears and allowed my breath to caress her skin. I took my hand away from the wall and lightly caressed her waist and dug my hands into her top. Still having my tongue do its thing and my hands on her breasts, I needed more, I wanted more. Drawing her close to me, I took her to the bed and climbed on her. She looked at me and it was easy to interpret. I then captured her lips in mine. Slipping my tongue in and out. Carol was a good kisser. I felt her tiny warm hands on my jeans. This woman wants more and I'll give her more.

Breaking the kiss, I took off her top and bra and sucked her breasts. Her breasts weren't really firm, but they were sweet to suck.

"Hmmmmm"

"Hmmm ohhh"

I fucked my tongue on her nipple, taunted the other breast with my right hand, I searched down her pant and she was all wet.

" You're ready for me Carol '' I said as I looked into her eyes. My hands soon found its way to her warm soft clits. Sucking her breasts and playing with her that way made her body arch against me. She dug her hands in my back, begging me to go on.

"Ahhnnnnnnn" she moaned as I inserted a finger into her pussy. I watched her face twitch but I wasn't planning to spend the whole day with this lady.

"I'll give you what you want" I pronounced and shifted her jeans a bit down. Pointing my dick straight to her pussy, I paused and looked at her. She was so full of pleasure. So indeed, I heard her plea. She screamed with my first thrust and that made me smile.

" You're so big" she moaned… I guess I was giving her enough space for talks, I started going deeper and deeper and as my thrust pace increased, I groaned. 

" Fuck" she felt to tight and warm. And that squeezed my dick from within. 

" Don't stop, please," she cried. Of course I don't take orders but I'm vulnerable to this. I turned her around to kneel while I gave her a doggy. She might not have a really saxy body but she was hot.

I pulled her hair as I fucked her passionately. I can't count the amount of time she had cum on me but I definitely hadn't cum yet. It was an interesting sex.

Fucking her that way satisfied my pleasure but she could never make me cum. 

I let out a great groan as I got out of her and she collapsed on the bed, gasping

" Thanks Carol" I said and went to the bathroom. After washing off and cooling down, I wore my dress. And sooner enough, she was also all dressed. I looked down at her and smiled. Of course I had to tip her.

After giving her some money and paying for the room, I bid Carol goodnight and left the club.

" Now that was satisfaction" I said as I drove back to my house. It's been a hell of a day for me.

After getting home, I slept straight up 

***

I woke up from my assistant's call. Whatever he had to say better be meaningful enough to cost my sleep.

" Good morning boss, the contract.."

" What contract?" I said slightly confused..

" Your marriage contract. You said you'd come see her early this morning."

"Ohhhhh" that was right. I totally forgot about the girl he said he found. " I'll be there real quick" I say and hung up

With a big sigh, I wondered what type of woman he had brought for me. I better find out. He called her Eleanor… well we'll see.

She might be more useful than I thought.

Jess's POV.

Mom must be crazy to think I'd get married to an old man. She must be joking. I called Augie and he wasn't picking up. What the fuck is wrong with him. I paid him to leave Eleanor and now, he's misbehaved since the day Eleanor found out.

" That girl always wins," I said angrily and slammed a glass cup on the ground. It broke into pieces and slightly bruised my hand. That made me fume the most.

" Eleanor! You are never going to rest!"

I dashed angrily to her room. Banging it very hard.

" Eleanor, come out right now," I shouted. She may play dumb like she always did but she seems vulnerable these past few days.

" Eleanor, don't make me call Mom," I threatened. I banged the door again, harder this time. I am so angry. I started feeling pain in my hand and decided not to bang on her door again. 

" Okay, since you won't come out, I'll force you to come by yourself". I went to meet Van

" Van, Eleanor wouldn't come out of her room and I've been shouting her name" 

" Jess, give her a break. She'll come out soon enough and you can do anything to her"

" I want her outside now! Else I'll go and hurt myself" I said and left his room. 

Van wouldn't disappoint, he ran after me holding my hands back

" I'll bring her out. Don't even think of hurting yourself, okay" he said as I went upstairs. I followed behind to watch the awful scene that was about to happen.

Van got to her door and knocked calmly

" Hey Eleanor, what's up with you? Open this door" he said. He got no reply and he said again, " I'm going to break your door down. And you know it. You'll be done for" 

He got no response, though I thought he was kidding, but he wasn't. He started kicking the door very hard. After countless attempts, he told me to go get a knife. 

I went as quickly as possible and gave him the small knife.

He used the knife in place of a key and fumbled with it. After a few minutes, he stood up, wiping sweat from his forehead.

He sighed. " You'd better not be in this room" he sounded brutal. He stepped back and asked me to go in when it was open. I nodded and opened the door, Eleanor thought she was smart.

" There you are-" my mouth hung open. The bed was well laid, the room smelt nice, and everywhere was just too tidy but most of all, Eleanor wasn't in.

" Eleanor!!!!" I shouted. Where are you hiding? I went to check the bathroom, nope. The store room, nope. Under the bed nope.

I went to check her wardrobe and everything was intact. So where was she?

I turned to Van, " She's not inside"

" I bet she isn't, if she was, she'd be dead by now." He hissed and went to his room.

But, it's unusual of her to go out and lock her door. Nothing was missing in her room. Just the purse she used to take around. And she had no money so she couldn't possibly go to a far place. Or was she with Emil? Maybe. Anyhow the case may be, she is coming back home.

I left and went to my room

Eleanor's POV

I had spent the night in this huge Mansion that was full of maids and guards. They treated me nicely and they all bowed. Even though I had no idea what I was doing. They took me to a very big room with a queen size bed. The assistant had told me that the man I'll have the contract with would be coming this morning so I could go to bed.

I am still lying on the bed, it felt like paradise. I checked the luxurious wall clock and it said 8 o'clock. It was the first day without nagging or the sounds of irritating half-siblings. It was the first day of perfect peace in my life.

I heard some beep on the other side of the door. Right, the door used passwords. The door opened and before my very own eyes, was the one and only Harrison Tolstoy. The famous rich billionaire. I couldn't believe it. As he walked in, I sat up. It was the first time I'd seen him in casual wear. From the black hair and the well-carved jaw. His broad shoulders and the beauty in his walk.

He was far more handsome than I saw on billboards. He approached me gently and sat on the sofa.

" Eleanor, is it?" he said. 

I wasn't dreaming, it was real! I finally realized that home was behind me, and the world was ahead.

Eleanor's POV 

I watched dreamily as someone I'd regarded as a fallen angel sat across me in the room. I gulped as a reaction to his moving Adam's apple. It was driving me crazy.

" E…yeah?" I sounded exactly as I was feeling. Nervous and surprised. " Eleanor, yes…that's me" I said with a faint smile. I quickly adjusted to a straight face as I saw my recipient wasn't smiling.

Harrison looked at me for a long time as if he was trying to figure something out. " Does your family know you're here?" He asked.

" No". Because why would I let them know? The peace I was experiencing cannot be compared to anything else.

" Good, that disturbance wouldn't be needed". Sure it won't be needed, would never be needed. I was enjoying this company and the silence I brought to my disturbed heart.

But there's something about this man. He is handsome, very handsome but I'm not fazed with his beauty as much as I was when he entered the room.

He is so professional and he talks to me as if I'm an employee. That's a green flag for me. 

" Here, read it very carefully. If all the conditions are okay with you, sign it. If not, you are free to leave".

He extended a blue file to me and that was when I started hearing my heart pound. I had been waiting to see the contract but why am I afraid to read it through now.

The feeling that I don't know what I'm doing and why I'm even here hits the right spot. Reading the contract line by line, bits says:

"Miss Eleanor has hereby agreed to be in a contracted marriage with Mr Harrison for the period of 5 years. During this time, Miss Eleanor is free to have a relationship outside the marriage and Miss Eleanor is not allowed to fall in love with Mr Harrison.

Miss Eleanor can only go out three times a day with a guard every time. Most importantly, she must obey every single thing Mr Harrison asks of her.

In return, at the end of the five years, she Shall be paid $5,000,000 and during this time, anything she needs shall be provided"

5 years??? 5 million dollars. My eyes could almost pop out of my socket. I looked at Mr Harrison. " Is it that simple?" I asked with excitement.

Mr Harrison nodded and he finally broke a smile. I hurriedly signed the contract. I gave him back the contract and looked at the expression on his face.

" But why do you need a contract marriage, there are rumors that you have a fiance" I unconsciously asked. His eyebrows curved down and his forehead wrinkled a little.

" Now that's none of your business. Let's go" he said standing up. I didn't mean to get him annoyed or anything. I guess it's inevitable anyway.

I followed behind him. His tall body covered my whole body, I couldn't see outside. We finally got outside.

The birds chirped, the sun was bright, the air was cool. I closed my eyes and enjoyed the embrace of a new world. I never knew life was this beautiful, I feel like a newborn.

We got to his car and he drove to a particular Court. On getting there, some documents were brought out for us to fill and Mr Harrison put a ring in my finger. 

That was when it dawned on me that it was court marriage. Am I officially married now? To Mr Harrison? I could imagine us having kids and-

Having kids? I bit my lower lips as my face turned red. I hoped Harrison didn't see that. I turned to look at him but he was busy with the people in the court.

When he was done, he drove me back to the mansion. A very silent drive. 

We got home a bit late but not too late. " Sleep well then Eleanor. I'll call you very soon" Harrison said and left.

I watched as he drove off and that's when I realized. 5 years?? Fucking 5 years? No falling in love? 

I shrugged those thoughts away from my head. I wasn't ready to allow any strange feelings affect my peace.

I sighed heavily and entered the mansion. The guards bowed as I enter, so did the maids and they were probably too much.

It seemed like I'm the only one who's different in the whole mansion. I looked around and wondered how I'd get to my room or where it was even located.

One must not play hide and seek in this house. I paced left and right, trying not to look too stupid.

" Anyhow can I help you ma'am?" A maid appeared. I let out a sigh of relief.

" I can't really remember how to get to my room". The maid smiled and led the way. Phew! That was easy.

As we walked upstairs, I felt deja Vu and smiled at my own thoughts. It was a bit funny how I remembered everywhere we passed by.

"Thank you", I appreciated the lady

" Please don't thank me ma'am, I might get into trouble" she said and smiled. It's nice to have people around. I laughed and asked for her name.

" You can call me anything you like ma'am" 

" Hannah, Hannah is it" I said. The lady genuflected and left.

This place is full of luxury and innocence, I laughed. If someone told me I'll be here today, I'll give everything to say it's a lie.

I turned around and sunk myself inside the mysteriously soft queen-size bed. I took the initiative to look around, since I had nothing to do.

Directly opposite me was a lamp, one that looked like Aladdin's. I walked across and saw some more ancient things. The painting on the wall, the table, the book shelf, the scent of the room, the decorations and the color of the room. It all looked ancient yet classic.

If I hadn't known better, I'd think this room was for a psychic. 

Leaving the room, luckily I met Hannah. " Hey, can you please show me around?" I said politely.

" Yes ma'am" she said and bowed again. I wasn't cool with this bowing stuff. 

" Is there any way you can stop bowing?" I said with a grin. 

Hannah answered with a bow. It was funny somehow and we both managed to laugh. 

Hannah took me round the house twice because I insisted I'd forget. The house was indeed big. There was a garden at the back of the mansion and close to it was a large swimming pool. 

Hannah also showed me Harrison's room. It was close to mine upstairs though but it was locked for some reason.

" And that is the whole house" Hannah concluded. We had been gossing the whole time while going around the house.

" Dinner would be ready in an hour, ma'am," Hannah said. It's funny how I'm already fond of her. 

" Hey, can you call me Eleanor?"

" Ma'am, I might lose my job"

" It's okay, you can call me whatever you like when we're amidst other people" I assured her. " Bye now Hannah" I said and entered the room.

I picked my phone and texted Emil. After sending three texts about how the mansion was, I got no reply. I felt the enthusiasm in me wash away.

Maybe I'll text him some other day. Dinner was soon served and that was the end of my day.

***

I took the new day to get familiar with the maids and guards. I went to the maids chamber and chatted with them, at least they kept my company.

The maids agreed to call me Eleanor whenever we're alone, well most of them were my agemates. 

" Eleanor, your phone's ringing" a maid screamed running to our direction with my phone in her hand. 

" Who's it?" I asked standing to get my phone from her. I collected it and saw it. "Augie".

He has the guts to call me? Is he crazy? I declined the call angrily and left for my room. He called again and I declined. What does he want now?

The thought of August and Jess making out kept coming to my head. I could feel the tugging of anger in my stomach.

My phone rang again, thank goodness it's Emil.

" Hey… how have you been? Girl, I've missed you, can't you come around to school or something"

" Guy, I'm still taking a break"

" So what does your husband look like?" Emil asked. I wasn't sure if I should tell him I was married to the most handsome billionaire in the city.

" Just some random guy. Yuuno, but he's handsome I can assure you that."

" Okay Eleanor, when am I seeing you?"

" Soon Emil, Pretty soon". I saw Harrison's assistant coming from the stairs with some stuff in his hands.

" I'll call you back Emil. Gotta go", I said and hung up. I quickly ran to meet Harry's assistant on his way.

" Hey good morning. 3pm prompt" he said and handed the stuffing to a maid. He looked at me and said " check your phone". He didn't wait for me to say anything before he turned back and left.

Getting to the room to check my phone, I saw a text. 

" We'll be eating with my family. Get dressed and smell nice. All you need has been taken care of. ~ Harrison".

Wait what!!!!

He's going to introduce me as his wife to his family!!!!
