Chereads / Set Fire to Rain / Chapter 3 - Pride

Chapter 3 - Pride

"Matthew?" Meredith's face changed from all smiling to anger when she saw the man in front of her. it wasn't just anyone but the last person on earth she wanted to see.

"Listen, I know you hate me but before you reject my offer think about it. My dad cancelled all my credit cards and I need money to survive, so you can rent a room in my apartment downtown at an affordable price. See it as a win-win situation." Matthew smirks at the same time trying to convince Meredith he needed the money more than ever and Meredith also needs a roof over her head.

"Cut the crap Matthew! and get the hell out of my face!" Meredith said between her teeth there were people around them, she couldn't afford to make a scene.

Matthew takes a seat next to her and turns to face her.

"Listen, the truth is, you are not my type of girl, okay and I'm not so thrilled to share my apartment with you, I just need the money," Matthew chuckles as Meredith rolls her eyes at him. She couldn't believe after everything he did he still had the guts to tell her in her face she wasn't his type.

"If that is the case get lost I don't want to see your cursed face, your presence makes my blood boil. Before I murder you, leave from here." Meredith grits her teeth and folds her fist even Matthew can feel the flames of anger coming from her.

"Wow, you are such a firecracker huh? Well, think about it, what is it going to be? Be my roomie or sleep on the street of Paris, it gets very dangerous here at night." Matthew whispers close to her ears. He is not ready to give up yet.

She is his new source of income now that his dad has cancelled all his credit cards. Thank goodness his grandma's apartment is still under his name.

Meredith stood up on her feet and smashed the magazine in her hands on the small table and gave Matthew a deadly glare since he was not ready to leave her alone she would rather leave.

Matthew jumps in fright at the sound of the magazine smashing on the table. She folds both fists and finally resolves to walk away, after all a scam bag like him was not worth her precious time.

Matthew follows her, "Why is it so hard for you to accept my offer? Besides, I don't like you and you don't like me fair square, and it is not like we are going to share the same bed. Listen I'm a gentleman and I don't bite so just say yes." Matthew tries his luck in convincing Meredith again to accept his offer but he only makes matters worse.

There is nothing Meredith Copeland wants and can't get, Matthew is one thing she wishes to throw in the thrush and he stands there bubbling his mouth as if she was inferior to him.

"The sight of you makes me want to..." Meredith whispers in between her teeth as she has her finger pointed at his face. Just then the lady at the front desk interrupted her.

She slowly turns to look at her struggling to put her emotions under control.

"Miss Copeland, we would like to know if you will be checking out of the hotel tomorrow or if you would like to extend your stay?" The lady asks politely in French. She turns to look at Matthew who smirks at her.

She brushed her hair backwards with her fingers and smiled at the lady.

"I will be checking out, thank you." She answered back in French. Matthew was impressed by her fluency in French, she didn't have an accent at all, so why not she is a spoilt brat like her other friends they went to the best of school. Matthew thought.

Meredith turned and walked away while he was lost in his thoughts. He came to his senses and tried to catch up with her.

"Let's do it this way, just take the keys to the apartment while you decide." He mumbled shoving the keys in her hands gently and folding them back.

He walks away while Meredith stares at his back, what is she going to do? She has less than 24 hours to find a new place or be forced to move in with him.

She quietly stares at the keys in her hands as tears form in her eyes. It was harder to cope with her new life than she thought. She quickly wipes the tears before they drop down her cheeks. She took in a deep breath and walked back to her hotel room.

Matthew arrived at his apartment downtown as his eyes scanned the room, the whole place was dusty. He doesn't remember the last time he was there. He sniffs and coughs as he lifts the white clothes covering the couch.

He looks around as he relaxes on the couch, he doesn't even have the money to afford a cleaning service. He slights himself a bit and pulls out his cell phone from his back pocket and dials a number.

The next minutes the doorbell rang, and he dragged himself up from the couch to open the door. A beautiful blonde girl with long legs and broad hips stood in front of the door in a mini strapless peach dress.

"Oh, hi there you are, come in," he said with a fake smile ushering her in, he was getting bored so he called one of his lovers but he didn't even record her name.

"So good for you to call me Matty, you have no idea how much I miss..." she said slyly as Matthew interrupted her.

"Same here look I need a little favour, I need to go pack my things from home now so could you help clean here, Don't trust people of late and wait for me I promise I will reward you handsomely," he smirks as the lady smiles.

"Yes daddy, I will wait for you right here." the canning lady replies as she blows him a kiss as Matthew leaves.

Matthew returns to the apartment to find it spotless. He walks into the hall and presses his finger on the table if he will find dust but nothing. Now he has to worry about how to deal with her the rest of the evening.

He enters the bedroom and here she is laying naked on the bed as she stares at him lustfully bitting her lips and rolling her tongue at him. Of course, she wasn't going to leave without her reward.

"Come to me, daddy." She slyly whispers.

"Yes, daddy is here, gosh shake that boobs for me, baby." He smirks as he walks to her and spanks her.

"Like this huh?" she let out a murmur.

He stares at her lustfully as he unbuttoned his shirt, in a second he was done and down to business. They ended up making out throughout the entire night.

Meredith was left with no option but to swallow her pride and move in with Matthew, early in the morning she woke up and pack her things downstairs.

She stood in front of the hotel as she waits for a cab to take her to the apartment lucky Matthew left the address to the apartment at the front desk. She could hardly sleep lately.

She grabs a cup of coffee at the hotel restaurant before leaving, she needs it to fully wake herself up. The cab arrived and drove her to the address.

The security man at the entrance was nice enough to carry all her suitcases to her apartment doorsteps.

"Thank you so much," Meredith whispers with a grin as she gets to her purse to tip the man.

"Oh, no Miss, let it be." The man said in English.

Meredith smiles putting her purse away thanking the man for his help once again. She took a deep breath before opening the door. She walks in slowly as she takes a look around the apartment, the place wasn't bad at all. she thought.

She takes another step forward and stops almost immediately covering her mouth with her hands. She was standing next to a door that she believed to be Matthew's.

"Yes, daddy!"

"You are fucken good!"

"It's yours take it!"

"Smash that p***y, yes get it?"

"Like that! Crush it arrhhhh!"

Meredith couldn't believe her ears. He is making out so early in the morning and making such horrible loud noises. "I know it was a bad idea to come here." Her heart shred and couldn't explain, she rather felt disgusted by him.

She turns to leave from there when she accidentally dropped a vase, making a loud sound. She bends over to pick it up slowly but unfortunately, Matthew hear the noise and walk out naked.

She lifts herself with her gaze lowered to his hairy legs and gradually moves up as she gets up.

She took her eyes off immediately and turn her back to him. "When did you come? you should have joined us instead of listening to us." He smirks as Meredith chuckles.

"Baby who is it?" The lady whispers. "Coming baby just my new roommate." He responded as he stares at Meredith's butts.

"I didn't mean to interrupt, your..." Meredith said in a cracked voice. "Oh, no you didn't, your room is that way, welcome roomie." He whispers as he shut the door.

"That guy is a dog, he didn't stop but went back to continue what I had come to interrupt." Meredith cursed. She drags her heavy suitcases to her room. The room needed a little clean-up while she was at it, Matthew and his lover's moan only kept increasing.

"What is he made off? Even a sex machine will break down if it is used that much." She pouts as she takes off the gloves from her hands and puts them in the small cleaning bucket and walks to the bed.

She just finished cleaning the bathroom and the room, even change the bedsheets yet still they were still at it.

"Goodness." Meredith cries as she buried her head under the pillow. The sound of their moans was becoming unbearable.
