Rachel's POV

Alexander glanced at me with pitiful eyes but I wasn't having any of it. "No, don't you give me that look," I said sternly and swallowed hard.

"Why would you say such a thing?" I pressed on the matter.

We finally arrived home and Alexander drove up the driveway. He switched off the engine and took my hand in his.

"Remember that day when I took you picture in the mansion kitchen?"

"Yes?"

"I gave it to Liam. A friend and a private investigator. He ran some background checks, found out information about you." I yanked my hand away from his and looked in front of me slightly angry at him. He shouldn't have done that. I thought he was only joking.

"Then who was she?" I asked defeatedly.

He grabbed my hand again and held it firmly. "A random lady who decided to take you in. We couldn't find any relation to her that you had biologically."

A tear escaped my eyes but Alexander was quick to lean over and wipe it. He softly kissed my cheek and then my forehead.

"It's okay, princess. I'm here now. Your life won't be what it was. I'll make sure of it."

"So my mother just dumped me at some unknown lady's house?" I asked with a shaky voice.

Alexander looked at me impassively. "Yes she did. I have information about your mother too... who she is, where she is, what she does..."

I shook my head no. "I don't want to hear anything about her. She is nothing to me. What about my father?"

"Your father...Well we don't know who he is. Only Carina does. But what we do know is that she got knocked up by a stranger in a club."

I just sat there for the next few minutes and Alexander sat with me. So grandma was a random lady who decided to take me in? I guess that explains our lack of a bond but I've decided that she would always be my grandmother no matter what. I would always hate Carina for everything she's done.

I composed myself and made a move to get out of the car so that Alexander could go and do what he had to. I gathered my bag and pills and before I could open the door I was pulled in a for a gentle kiss on my lips.

"Be ready for me tonight. I can't wait to fuck you," he said as he caressed my hair.

Mindlessly the whole day went by. My heart was a little heavy and I felt really sad.

When I got home, I cried for a bit. I wish I could thank grandma for all that she had done for me. Now I know why she always lashed out at me when I asked about my father. Even she had no clue. Carina was a real piece of shit for doing what she did and I never want to see her for as long as I live.

It was 10pm and Alexander called to say that he is on his way home. I prepared dinner earlier, experimenting a little because I had a lot of time. I made lasagna along with some bread pudding for dessert. I left a plate for Alexander in the oven.

I needed to shower and get ready for tonight. I wasn't exactly looking forward to it, but neither was I dreading it. Last night Alexander showed me that he wouldn't hurt me.

Just as I had finished cleaning the kitchen, huge hands cupped my ass from the back and squeezed. I shrieked in surprise. Turning around, Alexander kissed me deeply and I kissed him back. I was starting to warm up to him - only a little bit though.

"How's my pretty princess doing?" he said with a shine in his eyes.

I went to the oven and took out his plate for him setting it on the counter as he took a seat.

"I'm good, thank you. I hope your meetings went fine."

He dug into the lasagna and ate it fast as I went to fridge to get him some wine. I looked at the bottles clueless seeing that I had no idea what the difference between all of them was.

"Uhh... Which one would you like?" I gestured to the wine fridge in complete hopelessness.

Alexander shook his head no. "Some coffee would be better please."

I frowned at his answer. "But then you wouldn't be able to completely enjoy the bread pudding I made." His eyes perked up at that.

"You made bread pudding?" I took out the ramekin from the oven and set it in front of him.

"It's my favourite dessert to make. Grandma hated wasting stale bread and you can throw anything in it. I hope it's good."

He took a spoonful and tasted it. "Your hands are magic. This is exactly like how my mother used to make it. I haven't eaten this in years."

After Alexander had his dinner I told him that I needed to shower and he insisted that we shower together. He was waiting for me in the bathroom and I hesitantly started undressing. I took a deep breath before I stepped in and joined him in the shower.

He held out his hand to step in and he pulled my naked body against his as the water poured down on us. Alexander smiled down at me and began lathering the vanilla scented body wash all over my body.

"I could admire how perfect you are for every single second of my life," he breathed out by my ear. He was extremely close to me, taking care of me in the shower. He bent down to scrub my legs clean and left little kisses everywhere as he made his way up. He paid a little more attention on my waist where the he caused my bruise but I was happy to see that it was starting to fade away. It didn't hurt any longer.

I was beginning to get used to his touch. It was oddly comforting. He started sucking on my neck and I felt his erection stand proudly on my stomach. He was enormous.

The shower turned of and a towel was wrapped around me. Alexander carried me to the bed and helped me dry of before drying himself.

"I'm glad to find that you're not resisting me any longer," he said and went to shut the bedroom door and dim the lights. I went further up on the bed and got myself comfortable. We've literally just showered together so I mustered up the confidence and ditched the towel.

He was pleased at my action. I was anticipating his next move and he hurriedly came to the bed next to me. He kissed me deeply and made me lay down. I thought he was going to get inside me straight away but instead his fingers were skillfully tormenting me. I was gushing out juices that I didn't know was possible.

"Alexander..." I lightly moaned.

He stopped what he was doing and looked into my eyes. All I saw was a beast trying to restrict himself. He was fighting against himself, holding back.

"I usually fuck rough Rachel, rough enough to cause pain, but I'll try my best to not hurt you," he said considerately. I figured that he wasn't one to make love. He didn't even use the word love. I simply nodded in acknowledgement.

He kissed my lips and then my chin. I felt the tip of him at my entrance. He lightly pushed himself in, but not fully.

Again, he kissed me and rested his forehead on mine. "Don't tense yourself, princess otherwise I will hurt you. Let loose."

I let out a breath that I didn't know I was holding and in one swift motion he pushed himself deep inside me. I screamed at his action because it was painful. How could it not be? He was gigantic. He groaned so loudly and his face scrunched up in a way that resembled an indescribable amount of pleasure.

I was whimpering and my body tensed involuntarily. Tears brimmed my eyes but Alexander was thoughtful enough to give me some time. He wiped my eyes and then brought his hand down to my hips rubbing circles and massaging them trying to ease the pain.

"You good, princess?"

It took me a minute to nod yes to him but now it was bearable. "You can move," I whispered, and he did.

He started off slowly, thrusting inside me with a steady rhythm and as he continued, I only felt pleasure now, no more pain.

"Goodness, Rachel. You're so tight. So perfect."

I moaned loudly when he started circling my clit with his fingers while pumping harder and faster into me. His groans were only intensifying and I laced my hands around his neck bringing him down closer to me.

I was nearing my release and I could tell he was too. He added a little more speed and instantly my eyes rolled back and I began seeing stars. My stomach muscles tensed up and I screamed Alexander's name loudly when my orgasm hit me like no other.

Alexander thrusted in a few more times as I was retrieving myself from my high and he did a last, final thrust landing deep inside me when he released. His head fell into the crook of my neck and my hand went into his hair as he groaned breathily.
