Phillip: Triplets (Members From Money Book 33)

by Katie Dowe

  There was a moment of silence and then he continued. “We knew there was a chance it would not happen. When will it end?”

  Allison felt strange talking to him about something so personal! “Tomorrow.”

  “So you will be ovulating two weeks from now.”

  “Yes.”

  “Make a note on your calendar. I would like you to come and be with me that night.” He paused. “That would make it 4th of July.” He paused again. “I have a function for that day and I am sure you have something. It will be a Thursday. Make it for Saturday because I will be out of town for a few days.”

  “Okay,” she was vastly relieved that he was not mad! “I will see you then.”

  “Thank you for calling.”

  She blinked in surprise. “You are welcome.”

  He hung up and she leaned back against the wall. “Oh God please let it happen this time, please! She whispered fervently.

  She had been creating a fantasy around both of them and could not seem to help herself. She spent her nights thinking about them as a family with their twins or triplets. A boy and two girls or two boys and a girl, it did not matter. He would fall in love with her and would tell her that he did not want to live the rest of his life without her! She leaned her head back and closed her eyes. “What am I doing?” she wondered wearily. He was Phillip Anderson and there was no way he would ever fall for someone like her!

  “These rich men are all the same,” Daisy cackled. “You always see them with a different woman in tow.”

  Allison was barely listening to her as she prepared her medications. It had been a week since her periods and she could hardly wait for next Saturday for her to go to him. She was having a cookout at home with the neighbors coming over for the holiday and Elena was going to be doing most of the cooking. She had seen the closeness between her friend and her father and hoped that it would bring about something wonderful!

  “Who?”

  “Phillip Anderson, the billionaire who buys up old places and turns them into profits.”

  Allison stiffened and forced herself to remain calm. She walked over to the woman and handed her the medication and glanced at the paper in her lap. There he was with a stunning brunette hanging onto his arm. The caption said that she was some super model and that they had been seeing each other on and off for the past six months. Then what did he want with her? The thought burned an agonizing path through her heart as she stared at the man who had done so many intimate things to her that she never stopped thinking about. It was just business! The voice reminded her. And when it was all over he was going to tell her goodbye! Her hands shook slightly as she handed her patient the medication. “Men like these rarely stick to one woman. Too much money and too much looks! Women throw themselves at them.” Daisy continued not aware that with every word she was driving the nail deeper into the girls’ heart.

  “I suppose it is natural,” Allison wanted to go somewhere and be by herself and cried her eyes out! She had been foolish to think that there would ever be anything else between them!

  “Of course it is!” Daisy looked down at the glossy photo again. He is one good looking man though.”

  “Would you like some tea?” Allison was desperate to get out of the small parlor.

  “Thank you dear. I think I am going to enjoy some more drooling over Mr. Handsome here for a little while longer. Even an old woman like me is not immune to these smoldering good looks.”

  Allison made her escape into the kitchen and putting the kettle on she sat at the counter and put her head into her hands. What the hell was the matter with her? She knew what she had signed up for and here she was mooning over the fact that he had that bitch hanging on his arm! Did he have sex with her? Did he do the same things to her he did in bed and on the carpet in his bedroom? Did he put his tongue- she broke off and went to turn the fire off, her hands trembling! She poured the water over the pouch and fought the wave of despair surrounding her. How was she going to continue to pretend that she did not care?

  Chapter 5

  Allison planned and prepared. She had spent the days leading up to Saturday in constant despair and hopelessness and then Saturday morning it was like she was an entirely different person! She was a woman and not an ugly one! She had assets she could use to her advantage. So to him it was a business arrangement! But to her it had become much more! She had no intention of sitting down and accepting the inevitable! She was going to change things, change him and the way he looked at her!

  She dipped into some of the money he had transferred to her bank account. Her father was still doing treatments and the operation had taken a huge chunk of the money but this was for a very good cause. She wandered into the lingerie store and walked around. She was still in her scrubs and she could see that the sales lady was eyeing her suspiciously probably thinking that there was no way she could afford anything in the store! In any other circumstances, she would have been right! Allison thought as she looked at the price tags. But today was different.

  She finally came over. “Is there something special you are looking for?” she asked in a polite voice.

  “Something that says: ‘I am here to seduce you.’ Something that he will find very hard to resist.” She said with a smile.

  The woman nodded at that, no doubt in her line of work she had heard everything. “Come this way.”

  She pointed a section to Allison and she wandered over. Gossamer silk came to mind as she looked at the scanty articles of clothing. She rejected the ones that left nothing to the imagination. She finally picked up a strawberry two piece deal. The top looked like a bustier with hooks at the front. She looked at the size and realized that it was her size. The panties were cut high on the thighs. It was beautiful and outrageously expensive but she was not going to back down now! “I will take this,” she announced.

  The woman looked at her in surprise and then schooled her expression. “How do you want to pay?”

  “Card,” she took out her debit card with a flourish and handed it over.

  Next she went to the department store a few blocks down and after several minutes of searching she found the perfect dress. It was basic black and it was perfect. She found shoes to match and was on her way. For the first time since she had seen the Paper with him and that brunette she felt light and hopeful!

  ********

  Phillip opened the door as her car pulled up. He watched as she switched off the engine and saw when she reached onto the passenger seat to take up her pocketbook. His eyes narrowed when she opened the door and got out, his heart thundering inside his chest. He had never seen her like this before! The black dress molded to her curves like a persistent lover and the dip in her chest showed him glimpses of her flawless skin. She looked taller but he guessed it had to do with the strappy sandals she was wearing. Her hair was loose and brushed to one side, forming curls down her shoulder and onto one breast. She was wearing makeup and she was stunning! “Hi,” her voice was husky as she looked up at him.

  He stepped aside and she came in.

  “Would you like some wine?”

  “Thanks,” he watched her walked into the living room and could not keep his eyes off her. He had not seen her in two weeks but he had been thinking about her. He stifled a groan as he realized that he was hard!

  He walked into the living room and went to pour the wine. He handed her the glass and watched as she sipped and close her eyes. “I love this!” she murmured. His body tightened as the tip of her tongue darted to lick her full bottom lip. She had lipstick on and he wanted to taste it and savor it.

  “I think we should go in,” he said abruptly.

  “Yes,” she drank some more of the wine and handed it to him. She walked ahead of him and when she reached the bedroom she started to unzip her dress. It was still light out even though it was after eight and the burgundy curtain were still left open. He paused at the doorway as she stepped out of the dress and his body stiffened. She turned to
face him with her legs parted and her hands on her hips. He felt his breath backed up inside his throat and he could not breathe. The light was behind her and threw her body into startling relief. The material picked up the light and he could see the sexy contours of her curves. He walked slowly into the room, his knees trembling.

  She angled her head up as he stood in front of her. “Take it off,” she whispered.

  He opened his mouth to tell her that this was not a seduction scene but nothing came out! His fingers got busy unhooking the front and letting the material fall to the carpeted floor. She moved then and wrapped her hands around his neck. He brought his hands up to remove them, his fingers biting into her wrists but he held them fast, his grey eyes stormy as he looked down at her. She was changing the rules and he should set her straight but he could not do so, damn her! She murmured his name like a sigh and he bent his head, his breath fanning her lips. Her nipples brushed against him and he felt her shiver. He took her lips with his savagely, his control breaking! He released her hands and groaned inside her mouth when she wrapped her legs around his waist. He was wearing denims and t-shirt and he eased back to pull the shirt of his head before taking her lips again. He brought her over to the bed and reaching between them he fumbled to get his erection out and entered her swiftly, his body shuddering.

  She spent the night. He made love to her two times, his movements restless and rough as he explored her body. She felt when his emotions changed and knew he was going to ask her to leave but she held onto him. “I am not leaving,” she told him quietly.

  He clamped his hands around her waist to put her off him but she leaned forward and bit his lip, nibbling at it until he groaned. She felt when he went hard again and darted her tongue inside his mouth. He had no choice! He lifted her up and impaled her with his erection. His eyes were hard and his face intense with passion as he pushed into her. He could not stop, his body could not stop wanting hers and he made love to her until they fell into an exhausted slumber!

  *******

  He woke up late. Usually on Sundays he did just that and after coffee he would go into the pool to take a dip and then head to the club where he would spend the day. He opened his eyes and blinked at the clock realizing that it was almost ten. He frowned as he remembered the night before. She had spent the night and that had not been in the arrangement! He had never spent the entire night with a woman before and his frown deepened as he remembered that he had never been with a woman so many times either! Where the hell was she? He climbed off the bed and reached for his robe to put on over his nakedness. His dick felt bruised but was still semi erect and he remembered going down on her twice before entering her. Christ! He tunneled his fingers through his hair. When did it get out of hand? He found her in the kitchen making pancakes and bacon. His Brazilian coffee could be identified all the way into his bedroom, the scent was so potent! She was wearing one of his shirts; white cotton that he wore to work. She had not bothered to button it and when she turned around he saw the outlines of her small breasts and glimpses of her pubic area. “Oh. Hi,” she smiled at him. “I don’t know if you eat breakfast in the morning-“

  “Get dressed,” he told her coldly, his grey eyes ruthless as he stared at her.

  “I thought we could have breakfast and then-“

  He swore and cut her off. “Get dressed now! I did not tell you I need a housekeeper! I already have one and what the hell are you doing in my shirt?”

  She tossed back her tangled hair and to his shocked surprise she shrugged out of the shirt and let it pool at her feet leaving her completely naked! “There you go,” she told him sarcastically and with a toss of her long dark hair she turned and walked away. He caught up with her and grabbing her arm he turned her around to face him.

  “Let me go,” she tried to pull away from him. He ignored her and pushed her up against the wall. He took off his robe and dropped it to the floor and then lifting her up he impaled her, his erection sinking in deep. With a groan, he bent his head and captured her lips with his, his body pounding into her as his lips devoured hers!

  ******

  Allison shuddered as she remembered what she had just done with him a few minutes ago. He had taken her up against the wall and had ended up bringing her back inside the bedroom. It was almost two p.m. and she called her father and told him that she was delayed with the patient she had spent the night with. She had lied to him again and she hated doing that but what could she say to him? “Oh Daddy I am having amazing sex with Phillip Anderson the billionaire in the hopes that I get pregnant with his children? And by the way I was paid to do so.” She groaned as she could just imagine his expression. She had driven just a few miles before she pulled off a side road and leaned her head back against the head rest. Her heart was pounding and her skin felt clammy. Between last night and this morning he had done things to her that she never dreamed about! She moaned softly a she remembered his fingers thrusting into her and his mouth down on her. His tongue! She breathed through her mouth as she felt his penis deep inside her. “Phillip,” she whispered, her hands tightening on the wheel. She started her car shakily and taking a deep breath she head on home!

  ******

  Phillip did not make it to the club. After she left he had just pulled on a pair of shorts and dove into the pool where he swam several laps determined to get her out of his system. He had made love to her over and over again and had to force himself to stop and let her go home! He hauled himself up and out of the pool and sat on the edge of it, his feet dangling into the clear blue water. His grey eyes wandered over the vast expanse of lawn and he pulled himself up and went to the column that divided the pool and had chairs surrounding a table. He touched a button and a drawer slid out revealing several beverages. He picked up an ice cold lite beer and popped the cork. He had bought the place from a former movie star and fixed it up with the intention of selling it but had changed his mind and decided to live here instead. He leaned back against the chair and closed his eyes. With a sense of determination he realized that he was not going to see her again, not like this!

  “Honey are you okay? You are crying.” Elena handed her a napkin. They were both sitting in her living room watching a movie they had seen several times before. Her father had gone out to watch the games with some friends of his and Elena had invited her for dinner and a movie. It had been three weeks since she had heard from Phillip and her heart ached every time she thought of him.

  “I always cry when the movie is this good,” she said defensively as she blew her nose.

  “We have watched this particular movie several times before and you never cried.” Elena looked at her curiously. “And there is something different about you.”

  “Like what?” Allison asked her curiously.

  “Like you are moping. If I did not know better I would say you are in love.”

  “How would that happen?” Allison said lightly.

  “You tell me honey.” It was the beginning of August and the heat was sultry and unbearable. The air conditioning made humming sounds inside the small living room but Allison felt the sweat trickling down her back. She felt sticky ad in need of a long bath!

  “I am just feeling a little melancholy that’s all.” She said evasively. “How about you? Are you and Dad getting serious?”

  Thankfully that was enough to divert her attention from the subject!

  Elena sighed and poured some more lemonade. “I think so,” she searched her friend’s face. “I hope it’s not a problem homey but I think that your dad is such a sweet man.”

  “I love that he has found someone and that it is you.” Allison assured her.

  “We are taking it slow honey. He has been on his own for such a long time and well you know my story.” She murmured.

  Suddenly Allison felt the faintness coming over her! She had felt it two times before and thought it was the heat but now she was not so sure! “Would you mind me going over and taking a bath? The heat is get
ting to me.”

  “No problem honey. This heat is too much!” the woman said fanning her face vigorously. “And you do look pale and unwell. Maybe you are coming down with something.”

  “I hope not. I have work on Monday.”

  “You did not do justice to my fried chicken. You must be coming down with something,” she said with a grin.

  “No other explanation.” Allison got up slowly and felt herself sway a little bit. “I will see you tomorrow.”

  “Get some rest.” Elena said waving her off.

  The humidity hit her as soon as she got outside and Allison had to stand still before she moved off. By the time she made the short walk over to her place she was sweating profusely and was out of breath! She had to sit down in the cool living room for a moment before she made her way into the bathroom where she stripped her clothes off and stepped into the shower. She let the tepid water beat down on her as she ducked her head beneath the needles of the shower. She definitely did not feel good! She soaped up and scrubbed her skin vigorously before washing off and getting out of the shower. She wrapped the towel around her slender body and felt herself swayed again. Her stomach felt awful and she wanted to throw up but it would not come! She bent over the toilet and felt the sweat popping up on her forehead as her stomach churned! Finally it came! She opened her mouth and her stomach erupted sending everything she ate and drank into the bowl. She vomited until there was nothing left inside her to come out! She pulled herself over to the tiles and leaned her head back wearily. She did not have to check the calendar. She knew exactly what it was!

  **********

  She knew exactly what to do. She had bought a pregnancy test some weeks ago and went straight to do the test. She was not in the least bit surprised when it was positive. She stared at the positive sign for a long time and then disposed of it carefully. It was only one bathroom and she and her father shared it. She was not ready for the questions yet! It was Saturday and she wondered if he was out with the woman she had seen him with in the papers. Too bad, she thought grimly as he dialed his number. He answered on the second ring and she closed her eyes as she heard his deep voice in her ear. “I think I am pregnant.”
