June was not enjoying dinner. They were seated around her four piece dining set. Dmitri had asked the chef to create a meal worthy of a five star restaurant. The food was exquisite and June was doing her best to keep it all down. She had eaten some crackers beforehand and had stuck to lightly spiced food which encompassed mainly salad and vegetables on her plate. At least she would not be throwing up. She glanced at her mother who was chatting animatedly to Dmitri about his childhood. Her Dad was also very involved. June was nervous. The conversation in her bedroom earlier had been tense.

"June are you pregnant?" her mother asked pointedly.

June was rendered speechless. 

She looked at her mother then her father and then bowed her head.

"You better not lie to me young lady." Her mother admonished.

"Yes." She whispered almost wishing her mother's intuition was not as strong as it was.

"Look at me June." She looked at her mother. "Is it Dmitri's?"

She nodded.

"So? I thought you said the two of you broke up and it was not serious?" her dad asked.

"Well, it wasn't but ...." June was stumbling she wished she was not having this conversation with her parents.

"Come on, what happened and why is he working from your home? Doesn't he have an office?" her mother was shooting questions at her like a bullet.

"He does have an office but he chose to use my place since I fainted at work and he wanted to be near me." June was bunching up the sheets around nervously since her she felt like a criminal being interrogated by the police.

June explained the situation to her parents and told them that she had just found out about the pregnancy and that she and Dmitri were not really 'back together' and that he did not know about the pregnancy as yet. She told them that he was a billionaire and also a client and that it was very complicated. She also told them that she needed more time to organise her thoughts and hoped that they would support her.

Dmitri had invited them to dinner and they had accepted eagerly wanting to know more about this man who was supposedly rich and who had fathered their unborn grandchild.

June looked and listened, her parents and Dmitri were getting on quite well. Her parents were open minded and had welcomed Dmitri in her life, she knew that they were accessing him and from the questions they were asking. Her dad was more cautious but her mom was a no holds barred kind of person.

"June, do you want to rest now?" June was brought back from her reverie by Dmitri's question. She looked at the three pairs of eyes staring at her in anticipation of her answer.

"No, I'm fine. Would anyone like a cup of tea or coffee?" she asked standing up.

"June sit down." Dmitri commanded. "Let the chef prepare the drinks."

It riled June every time he told her what to do. It was his domineering tone of voice which screamed 'Do as I say!'which irked her the most.

"I'm not an invalid plus this is my home." She stated firmly before going to prepare the drinks.

He mom loved herbal tea and her dad just loved regular tea. Since Dmitri was Greek she guessed Dmitri drank strong black coffee. Greeks are famous for their strong taste in coffee. She made herself some chamomile tea as well as her Mom; it was gentle and would help relax her nerves.

She handed everyone their drinks.

"Thanks dear." her Dad said.

"Smells lovely June," her mom commented.

Dmitri looked at his cup and then her before taking a sip. He put the cup down and winked at her.

"Mmm perfect June, thanks."

She tried not to blush guessing he liked it.

"So June we expect you at the barbecue this Saturday, " Her mother said and turned to Dmitri, " You are invited as well Dmitri, it will be at my sister's place, it's a family event we hold every year. I would love you to meet the rest of the family."

June was horrified, "Mom, Dmitri is a very busy man he will not have time to come to Aunt Celia's barbecue."

"Of course I will there Mrs Stapleton, I would be honoured to meet your family, June has told me very little about them." Dmitri's eyes were twinkling with mischief and June wanted to scream.

"Oh that will be just fabulous!" her mother beamed.

June was on edge by the time her parents left her flat. Her dad had gotten Dmitri to volunteer to play on his football team for the Barbecue. The men played competitive six a side football every year. Her Dad and his brother, Uncle Wyatt were the two captains and they were brutal. Each brother tried to win by any means necessary.

June had showered and was ready for bed. She had avoided Dmitri ever since her parents had left. He had been on the phone rattling off in Greek or Italian or one of the million languages he appeared to be fluent in.

She chose her outfit for work the next day and secretly organised her bag. She was determined to go to work the next day in spite of her jailer's demands.

June was nervous if Dmitri held her tonight she would definitely have sex with him. She needed a plan. She paced her bedroom floor but nothing came to her. She peeked out at the living area and noticed that he was now on his laptop but still chatting away on his phone. Does the man ever rest? She thought she was a workaholic but Dmitri took the gold medal.

June had a great idea. She locked her bedroom door and turned off the lights. She got into bed and welcomed sleep. She was a bit tired so she drifted quickly. She was suddenly awakened by loud pounding. She sat up in bed quickly feeling a bit disoriented.

"June open this door!" Dmitri was shouting.

June then remembered she had locked her door. She checked the bedside clock, it was 1 am.

She crawled back under the covers hoping he would give up

"June I know you can hear me now open up before I break down this door." Dmitri was bellowing and pounding.

"June this is ridiculous now open this door NOW!"

June pretended to sleep and tried not to laugh at the situation. She slowly crept to the bathroom because she needed to urinate and hoped his pounding would mask the flushing toilet.

"I am not stopping until you open this door!" Dmitri was saying.

June mimicked him "Open this door!" and almost let out a giggle. There was a calm and Dmitri appeared to have given up. June was closing the bathroom door when her bedroom door was forced open and slammed against the wall. She stood there in mid stride as Dmitri staggered into her bedroom after bursting into the room. They glared at each other before he approached her. He was dressed in lounge pyjamas and a white shirt. The shirt was form fitting and made his chest look bulkier. Plus the pyjama bottoms made his torso look leaner. He really had an exquisite body of art. June gulped unsure what to do. Getting in bed or fleeing to the bathroom. None looked like the safe option.

"June." Dmitri said softly advancing into the room. June felt like a caged tiger so she backed away.

"June." Dmitri repeated as he was advancing very carefully toward her.

June looked around her bedroom for an escape route. There were few options. She decided to do the plain sight escape run. As Dmitri came up to her she ducked around him and ran. Her plan was almost perfect except for her assailant's quick reflexes. He grabbed her from behind and carried her to the bed.

She lay there trapped under him.

"I was going to leave you alone tonight but that stunt deserves some punishment.  Plus I had forgiven you for the bite you gave me earlier. This stunt is really pushing the boundary line June." Dmitri looked at his arm which showed no sign of any bite.

"Since I am a fair man, I will give you three chances to redeem yourself." Dmitri was staring at her and talking very huskily in his heavily accented voice. June gulped as his voice dripped with sexual tension.

"I'm sorry?" June said not feeling sorry at all. She almost let out a little giggle.

Dmitri laughed, " Wrong answer try again."

"I will be good, could you release me now?" June knew Dmitri was just humouring her as he appeared in no hurry to let her go.

"One more chance." he stated smiling devilishly.

She put on her serious face but her lips refused to stop quivering.

"Well," she swallowed nervously. "I will listen to you and rest. Since I'm still a bit tired I will sleep with no objections."

Dmitri smiled in victory, " Wrong answer again, my darling June."

His head descended and he captured her lips. A frizzle zipped through her as their lips merged. She whimpered as he put his tongue into her mouth, June was lost. She wound her arms around his neck and pulled his head closer. He started to suck on her bottom lip; it was so erotic and sensual. His teeth lightly grazed a trail to her jawbone and down to her neck. He left soft bites along her throat that made June tingle all over. 

His tongue then dipped into her collarbone and she screamed with joy. He pushed the night shirt she was wearing over her head and captured her breasts in his hands. June was on fire. Her body was responding to his touch so effortlessly. She let out soft whimpers as Dmitri's tongue did things to her body that should be illegal.

"You seem to be enjoying your punishment a little bit too much Ms Stapleton." Dmitri said laughingly as she was recovering from yet another orgasm.

" My captor appears to be quite the tease!" she countered breathlessly.

"Is that so?" he smiled wickedly. He knelt over her and pulled off his shirt. June's body went into overdrive at seeing his rippled chest. He was so tanned and muscular when did he get the time to work out. Dmitri removed his bottoms and June knew she would be boneless by the time Dmitri was done with her. He was already hard with want.

He lay down next to her and guided her hand to his shaft. June had never touched a man so intimately before. She tentatively held him and he showed her what to do. June was marvelling at how easily Dmitri had become her slave and she was his master. She learnt how to please him and loved it when he buckled when her tongue touched a certain place.

" You slay me my darling June." Dmitri said hungrily as his trembling hand was struggling to put on a condom.

"To heck with it!" he said throwing the condom away after a third failed attempt to put it on. He grabbed her and making her straddle him as they joined. She rode him hard and fast and their mating was fierce. They both craved each other as the sexual heat was released through their union.

June got up to use the toilet. She was still tired. Sex with Dmitri had been out of this world. Her body still had that tingly feeling all over. She never thought that being with him could be so overwhelming and fulfilling. She looked at him asleep. His hair was falling over his forehead. He was too handsome for his own good. His mouth was curved slightly in a smile. That mouth was dangerous.

He had a square jawline and a shadow of a beard. He would look handsome with one she thought. She was still undecided about telling him about their child. She just did not trust him fully as yet. Maybe if she spent more time with him she would decide what to do soon.

She looked at the clock it was 5:45 am. June knew that this was her best chance so she took it.
