His Property novel Chapter 9

***At work 6 Weeks Later***

I still worked in the office as Ryders CFO. As far as I was concerned everyone in the office still referred to me as Mrs. Byson, I didn't care as long as Ryder knew that as of now we were nothing.

There was a knock on the door, I checked the time and it was barely past 9 o'clock so I assumed it was my assistant.

"Come in." I said my arm stretched out to receive my morning coffee. Instead, it was a stack of paper, I looked up and realized that this wasn't my assistant,

"Natalia these are the papers that-" Ryder began but I put the papers on the desk and looked back at my desktop.

"Thank you goodbye."

"Natalia can we please just talk." He leaned on my desk. I frowned and looked at him again.

"I'm sorry talk about what Ryder?"

"About us." He whispered.

I stood and walked to shut the door before looking back at him.

"Us?" I whispered. He tilted his head as I walked past him.

"Yes, Natalia. Us." He grabbed my wrist.

"Let me go." I reached on my desk to grab a pen. Before I could stab him with it he grabbed my other hand.

"Stop it." He growled.

"Let me go." I frowned. He chuckled and shook his head.

"No."

"Ryder, I'm not fucking playing with you."

In one swift motion, he flipped me onto the desk my legs straddling him as his groin pressed hard against my cunt.

"Why the fuck are you doing this to me?!" I yelled. He covered my mouth.

"Natalia I didn't mean to hurt you."

"Well, you did so... no taksies backsies."

"Natalia I was scared." He loosened the friction between my pussy and his crotch. I frowned.

"Scared? Ryder, you're a 6'4, buff, 30-year-old man. What could you possibly be scared of." I rolled my eyes. The more I tried to free myself from his hands the more he tightened his grip. eventually, I gave up.

"Love Natalia. I'm a lot of things. But when it comes down to love? I am nothing more than a child." He couldn't even look into my eyes. I shook my head.

"So you stick your dick in someone else's pussy?"

"Yes."

Truth hurts.

"Oh my God Ryder leave."

"So can you find it in your heart to help me? I don't think I could get through this without you." He whispered. I sighed.

"I need time. I can't just forget this ever happened." I ran my fingers through my hair.

"I know. Mio Prezioso." He kissed my forehead.

"Can you please come home though?"

"No." I began to work my way out of his grip.

"Please. I never thought I could be this lonely sleeping in my own bed."

I shook my head.

"It's only been a month, Ryder. You'll be fine. Now I have work to do."

"So did you guys talk?" Sebrina had come home shortly after myself.

"Yea." I chuckled cleaning the kitchen.

"I'm surprised. What happened." She set her purse down on the coffee table.

"Well, he's sorry." I began. She took down two wine glasses and brought out a bottle of chilled wine.

"Obviously, but give me all the details."
