Blackmailed by the Beast

Lily saw red. How many other women would brush off a statement like that?

She charged at him, lashing out, and punching his chest. Her hormones were out of whack.

“Listen to me,” Wayne ordered. He grabbed her hands and thrust her up against the nearest wall. “Your sister came to my office and tried to seduce me. Do you think for the world I would f**k a bag of bones when I have you here and wanting me?”

Lily struggled against his hold. His leg inserted between her thighs rubbing the folds of her sensitive flesh.

Biting off a moan, she tried to concentrate on what he was saying.

“But she got lipstick on you.”

“The woman practically attacked me, but don’t worry, my c**k only gets hard for one woman, and she’s squirming under me right now.”

In one swift move, he tore her dress from tit to waist. Her br**sts bare, as the bras she used to wear hurt too damn much.

Wayne cupped her br**sts, and she moaned. The cool air delightful on the heated nubs.

“This is the woman I want. I love you, Lily.” He growled as he took a nipple with his lips.

Lily jolted. “What? What did you say?”

“I love you, Lily, always have and always will.”

He didn’t give her time to think about what he’d said, instead he showed her. Their clothes went in a heap on the floor. He took her up against the wall, his c**k thrusting inside her, taking her to newfound heights of completion. Next on the sofa, where she rode him, their cl**ax fast and furious. Lily couldn’t get enough of his cock, and they lay panting in a mass on the sofa.

“I love you, Lily,” he said again, kissing her shoulder and moving her hair out of the way.

“How do you know?” She shivered from his touch, her body tingling all over from an afternoon of rigorous sex.

“Some time ago you were at a ball, nineteen, one of the few times I’d seen you attend. I knew back then.”

“But you’re older than me.”

“Do you really think this has anything to do with age?” He touched his heart and touched her breast.

“You’re trying to distract me.” Lily arched up to his touch.

“Lily, I love you with all my heart.” He went serious on her, and she knew in that moment, he was telling the truth.

“But everything you’ve done?”

“Look. I’ve got shitloads to tell you about my life.”

“Then tell me.”

Wayne glanced at her, and Lily sent him a smile.

“Okay. For some time, I’ve been on my own. My family are monsters, Lily. I was born to two people who are more selfish than the whole world put together.”

“That’s a bit extreme.” Lily could see the emotion breaking through the blocks of ice and walls he’d erected around himself. Is it possible he was protecting himself from hurt? The very Beast himself had a weakness?

“That’s the problem with our world. It’s either one extreme or the other. We don’t do stuff like half measures.” He licked his lips and cupped her cheek. “As a young boy, my parents…they….” He couldn’t finish, and Lily got the message loud and clear.

“They hurt you.” There was so much more to this man than a big c**k and reputation. A broken child lay beneath the surface, lost and alone exactly like her.

“Yes.” He sobbed. Tears formed in his eyes, and she watched in total amazement as the man who was always in control, brutal in his approach, weakened before her.

Lily caressed his cheeks and stared in wonder as the tears spilled. She leaned down she kissed them away.

“I’m a horrible man. I’ve hurt you more than I’ve ever hurt anyone else.” His large hands encircled her waist and held her close. His head nuzzled her bosom as he let the sobs release. Lily held him, consoled him.

“I’ve got you,” she whispered, stroking his hair back from his face. Her br**sts were coated with his tears. After some time, he stopped.

Wayne looked up about to talk, but she stopped him with a finger over his lips. “You don’t need to tell me. I understand, and thank you for giving me some of yourself already.” She kissed him on the lips.

“I want to show you something.” Wayne picked her up, placed her on the sofa, and went to his desk.

Lily recognized the contract she’d signed in Richard’s office, and her heart beat rapidly in her chest.

“Why do you have that awful thing?”

“Because I want to give you every copy that was ever made.” He handed her the paper copies and a disk. “That is everything linking to that contract. As far as I’m concerned, you’re my wife by choice not by contract.”

“What if I walk out of here?” Lily tested him.

“Then my heart will go with you wherever you want to go, but I’ll warn you now, you’ll never find a man out there who’ll love you the way I do.”

Lily watched him freeze. He stared at her, but his hands fisted at his sides. Getting to her feet with the contract in her hands, she walked over the fireplace and threw the documents and disk onto the fire. The paper went up in flames, and the plastic began to melt.

Her heart lifted in her chest.

“Why did you do that?”

“Because I don’t need any contract to tell me how I feel. For some strange reason, Wayne Brown, I’ve fallen deeply in love with you, and I can forgive everything you’ve done, and everything you’re going to end up doing to me. I forgive you.”

Lily walked over to him and hugged him tight. They stood na**d in front of the fire, the heat radiating to them. Wayne put his arms around her waist. She giggled when his c**k bumped her back.

“Someone’s pleased to see me.”

“I’ll always be pleased to see you, baby,” Wayne said, nuzzling her neck. “I’m going to do something I should have done at the very beginning.”

Lily stood while Wayne moved to his clothing. He came back to her and went on one knee. “Lily Jones, the light of my life, the love of my life. I’ll love you forever with my heart, mind, body, and soul. I’ve been an utter bastard, but I do love you with everything that I am. Will you make this Beast whole and become my wife?”

As far as marriage proposals go, it was the most beautiful she’d ever witnessed. Nodding, she accepted the new ring he presented her with.

****

A few days before Christmas, Lily Jones, who was once blackmailed by a beast, was suddenly the very reason for him to open up and become the man willing to love her, and she willing to love the man with all of her heart.
