CHAPTER 20. STOP THE CONTRACEPTIVES
That same night, fabella moved into Sebastián’s apartment. It was relatively close to the company and extremely large and luxurious. Isabella thanked heaven that, at least, she wouldn’t have to see him too much at home. However, her illusions were shattered when the maid showed her to her room
“Mr. Ashford ordered that you sleep here, the mail explained, opening the doors to a large, beautiful, and luxurious room; a palace of comfort
The door next to the dressing room caught Isabella’s attention
“And that? What’s it for?”
The maid walked in the door and checked that it was locked.
a door that connects to the next room. But it’s locked, you have nothing to worry about.”
However, Isabella was worried. She had a feeling she wouldn’t like to know who the next room belonged to.
“And… whose is the other room?” she insisted, her curiosity mixed with a sense of unease.
“Mr. Ashford’s,” the maid said, trying to downplay it. “But, as I said, there’s nothing to Amelia left. He locked it and…..”

about. He hasn’t opened it in seven years, since Mrs.
“Amelia‘ Mrs. Amelia?”
Isabella caught the change in the maid’s to
I’s tone, who clearly realized her mistake. Sebastian didn’t like that name being mentioned.
“It’s nothing, sorry. What I can tell you is that…
“No, no, tell me, Was Mr. Ashford married?” Isabella couldn’t help but keep asking, her curiosity now piqued.
“Well he
“Matilda” ai
a grave and severe voice resonated behind them. Both women turned, only to see Sebastian standing at the door. What have I told you about gossiping? Do you value your job? Or do you not need to keep taking care of your little siblings?”
His tone
was relentless.
“T’m sorry, sir. It won’t happen again, please don’t fire me,” the n maid almost knelt, the fear evident in her voice.
“Leave and keep your mouth shut
“Yes, yes, sir. I’m leaving now
The maid hurried out, leaving them alone. Isabella swallowed nervously and tried to speak.
““I didn’t mean to pry into your business, it’s just that.
“I want you to keep something in mind, Isabella” Sebastian interrupted her, his gaze fixed on her, his expression hard and unyielding. “You’re here for a specific reason, and that reason is to give me a child. Don’t confuse this with a traditional marriage. You are not my wife in the romantic sense of the word: you are, to be frank, a womb I bought. A means to an end. So don’t forget your place or the purpose of this agreement.”
The air was filled with a tense silence, Sebastian’s words resonating in the room and leaving a wound inside Isabella. Sebastián approached her in an instant. Their breaths were heavy, reflecting the palpable tension filling the room.
Isabella, with a spark of defiance in her eyes, did not back down
You don’t need to remind me all the time what our agreement was, Mr. Ashford. I have it very clear, she said firmly, though her heart was pounding in her chest.
Isabella’s defiance excited him. Sebastian didn’t know why, but every time she talked back with her sharp tongue, something inside him ignited. It was a flame he couldn’t, nor wanted to, extinguish. At that moment, he couldn’t keep his hands still, much less his instincts under control. So he pulled her into his arms and held her tightly, reducing the distance between them even more.
habella could feel his warmth and his woody scent, a combination that, against all logic, was beginning to intoxicate her. She tried to maintain her composure, but Sebastian’s closeness made her thoughts blurry. He lowered his lips to her ear and whispered, each word a direct hit to her nervous systrin

“I want you to stop the contraceptives starting tonight.”
“W. what I don’t…
Sebastian didn’t give her time to continue, because he was already kissing her, his body burning with need for her. He excused himself by saying he wanted to save his son as soon as possible and that was why he was kissing her like a madman and his hands couldn’t stop touching her.
On the other hand, Isabella was nervous, not that she didn’t know what sex was, but the only times she had experienced it, she didn’t remember plus, she didn’t want to do or say anything that would anger Sebastián. So she could only respond to his kiss and let him do whatever he wanted, after all, they had an agreement, and this was part of it.
Soon Sebastian’s hands roamed all over her body, he delighted in the softness of her skin, and for a moment he wanted to mark her, leave marks that would take time to disappear, so everyone would know she belonged to him. Isabella played with his tongue, following his same movements and soon her arms wrapped around his neck. Sebastian pulled her close, and she could feel his hard erection against her belly, her center throbbed In response, and a need awakened inside her.
“Beautiful you’re more receptive than I imagined, Sebastian whispered, lowering his lips to her collarbone. “I know we are going to have fun, we are going to enjoy ourselves a lot in that bed.
She could only look at him, the words stuck in her throat and Sebastian was grateful for that, he didn’t want her to talk, he wanted to devour her, completely and right there. That’s why he threw her onto the bed. Isabella let out a little gasp of surprise.
“You’re a little temptation, Isabella. I must admit that with you, I find it hard to control myself,” he admitted while starting to unbutton his shirt.
“Didn’t… didn’t you say you would wait for the tests?” Isabella’s heart raced more when she saw him take it off and throw it behind him.
Sebastián gave her a wolfish smile,
“To hell with the tests, darling, I want you, and I’m going to have you now?
