She put her head down and waited for Drake to come out of the house again.
He saw her sitting in his car and quickly pulled her out.
" What are you doing?" He yelled at her.
" Just get me out of here and take me back home." She cried.
Drake told her the truth then.
" Stella your parents have your house up on the market. They are selling their home, there is no place to go back to."
She nodded numbly and headed back to her room, she felt rejected once again.
Drake followed her this time.
" Let's talk, I don't know how we got into this fighting eachother." He said.
Stella was heartbroken, her parents had never wanted her, Drake doesn't want her.
She took off her clothing and got into bed.
Drake lay next to her and held her in his embrace.
" Give me something, I have nothing." She said.
He thought she meant money, clothing, jewelry, or other monetary items.
But again she surprised him, she had nothing of her own. She did not ask him for money, not Stella, she was different.
" Make love to me Drake, not just s*x, I want to feel...I need to know I'm not broken as a woman."
He understood her.
He kissed her neck and started to make love to her now.
He moved over her, getting her ready for him this time.
He did his best to not get carried away. She was so very sexy. Those legs, those hips.
All mine.
The taste of her sun kissed skin, no tan lines. He grew excited.
He would deny his own pleasure and focused only on hers, only hers. He moaned softly.
Stella was moaning too, her head went side to side. She was breathing hard. "Please Drake." She said softly.
Drake continued to give her what she needed.
It finally happened. She cried out,"oh...oh...yes...yeeeees." She cried softly in his ear as she finally, finally felt it, the coiling that built inside her was released in a warm cascade of peacefulness.
Drake's eyes were half closed. He opened her to him and using protection this time, he found his pleasure.
She clung to him, not fighting him. She found her release once again.
She was so happy.
" I'm not...I mean...I can do it...I'm not broken. Oh, thank you Drake, thank you so very much. You are a very good lover. Thank you so much."
He lay back speechless. She took all his strength.
He fell asleep, holding Stella. In this moment he started to know his love for her was very deep.
She was so sweet, so innocent. She was all his. He would find a way to make her happy. He had too. She stole his heart.
Stella pulled away from him and got dressed. She went down to get a drink.
Drake's phone was lying on the counter. There was a message that popped up on the screen briefly.
Baby, hurry home, I miss you. I'm waiting in our bed lover..
Stella's heart dropped. He wasn't even trying to be her fiancé for real.
She touched the screen a slew of pictures of girls popped up.
Stella sat down and read through all of them.
She forwarded all of them to herself. She couldn't believe the amount of women he was sleeping with.
She sighed. She could believe it actually, but after he loved her so tenderly, she was very mad.
Stella went back upstairs. Drake was asleep.
She snuggled back in bed with him. She touched him and tried to seduce him this time.
If she could make him want her above all others, he would love her.
Drake smiled and tasted her lips.
"You are ready again my sweet?" He asked her.
Stella sat on top of him.
" Mmm...yes lover..she mimicked some of the words she had read in those texts on his phone.
Drake felt something wrong with her passion. She was pulling him, and biting him. She was wild.
" I think we should uh...slow down here." He said laughing uncomfortably.
She nodded as she moved over him. He held onto her hips. She wasn't trying to find her own pleasure.
He moaned and grabbed her hips, he wanted to be deeper, go harder.
He flipped her over and took her harshly, gripping her inner thighs.
Stella's eyes were full of tears as he continued.
When he was done, he collapsed on top of her.
Stella scooted out and went into the shower. Her tears mixed with the hot water.
Drake was still in her bed when she returned.
She looked at him with new eyes.
Cheater.
She did not know that since he proposed to her, he hadn't been with those others, he had been faithful.
Those messages were old. Messages from girls that still wanted him in their beds. They missed him.
Stella decided she wanted to try and seduce him to keep him from going back to his bachelor life.
She thought about exposing his infidelity. She had all of the evidence now. She was angry like never before.
Stella went about her day. She sent Drake a text to try and keep him interested. She was in the stables.
"I'm waiting here. I'm so hot, so horny for your juicy lips." She wrote.
Drake called her.
" What is this, why are you acting this way twerp?" He was at the house working from the home office.
"We can actually try to have a relationship you know Drake, you don't need other women, I can be a good lover to you."
He said,"I haven't lied to you. I've been with a lot of women."
He knew that was all over, she did not.
Stella said," Then I should see other men, I see...I was naive about the rules here.
Now that it's all cleared up....okay. I'm borrowing your jeep to go into town tonight.
Is it best to bring them here? Or a hotel...what do you do fellow?" She asked him.
He felt a streak of jealousy. He was very hot now.
" I think we should talk further about this....come up here and talk to me. No, you may not drive my jeep, I forbid it." He said.
Stella nodded. "Just like my father said to me when I turned 18, he admonished me from driving his truck.
He said he would know, I met you that night, I drove that truck and met you. He never knew." She said to him.
Drake was still working he told her he had to go. His computer buzzed, he had a meeting with a big client.
She kept to the stables, feeling even lonelier now, even more so since she found out what love making could be like.
Cupcake didn't care. She was such a comfort to Stella. Taking care of the animals on the property made her feel needed.
She thought about her aunt Sophia, she wondered if she had passed away yet.
She thought the caregiver would have texted her.
Stella avoided the cheating Drake as the week went on.
She spoke with Teddy.
" How long have you been here, at this place." She asked.
" Oh, 20 years or so." He replied as he mucked the stalls.
" Do you ever leave, like on vacation?" She asked the elderly man.
He shrugged," Never."
She picked up a shovel.
" I think I should watch the place while you go on a vacation. I mean you taught me everything to do now."
He smiled. "Ah, no worrying about me miss." He smiled. This girl was the daughter he had wished he had.
Stella handed him some water.
" Maybe just take a few days, I got this.
I look forward to the challenge of doing all of your chores. Please let me, I'm so bored." She pleaded.
He grinned and scratched his grey head. " Okay, I'll do it."
" I'm leaving tomorrow, I'll be back in a few days, Drake the rake will be here right?" He smiled, knowing what a horrible man he was for her.
In the morning, Stella made coffee for Teddy and sent him off with a wad of money that she had been saving.
" Go to Vegas!" She told him.
He nodded. " Okay call me if you need anything."
She agreed. She was now the woman of the castle.
She felt powerful.
Stella went to start her chores. By the end of the day, she was wiped out. This man worked so hard.
She grabbed a blanket and slept in the stables.
" Good night my friends, now get some rest, I will protect you." She said happily.
Cupcake whinnied loudly.
Drake came down and watched her sleep. He needed to fix all of this.
