“I cared about you, too, Gray. Don’t you know that?”
“How can I know that when you won’t even look at me? You let me fuck you, but when I try to kiss you and cuddle you, you push me away. What’s a guy supposed to think?”
I struggled to free myself. “I’m sorry, okay? I’m sorry. I never meant to keep it a secret. Tanya said the contract would end if I painted you in a bad light. I made a mistake, okay? That’s all it was—a big mistake. Can’t you understand that?”
“What are you talking about?” he bellowed. “What was a big mistake? What’s the big secret?”
I closed my eyes against the onrushing tide. I covered my ears to stop myself from hearing those dreadful words. “I’m pregnant, okay? I’m pregnant!”

Gray
I stared at her with my mouth open. She didn’t just say those words. I stared so long she slumped on the couch by my knees and covered her face with her hands. “I’m so sorry, Gray. I really am. I didn’t know what to do. I didn’t want to tell you, but I couldn’t keep the secret any longer. I’ve been going out of my mind worrying about this. I was terrified this would destroy our contract and it would all be over between us. I didn’t want that to happen. I just wanted everything to keep going between us, the way it was before. I’m sorry. I know I ruined everything. Can you forgive me?”
My body couldn’t contain the rising energy building inside it. I was going to be a father? All these years, I never really thought that would happen. I never found a woman that I wanted to keep around and settle down with, until I met Gabi. She changed my whole outlook on everything. I couldn’t believe it. I was excited.
I snatched her off the couch and kissed her. I had devel
oped strong feelings for Gabi over this last month together. I wanted her to stick around after the contract was over, for us to become a real family. And now with this, we truly could.
“You’re pregnant? Why didn’t you tell me? How long have you known? Is this what you were acting so weird about? I can’t believe it!”
I burst into hysterical laughter. I couldn’t stop swinging her around and kissing her. She fought her way out of my arms. “Wait a minute. You’re happy about this?”
“This is the greatest thing ever!” I cried. “ Deep down, I always wanted to be a father, but I never thought that would be possible given with how I was with women. But you have changed everything, Gabi. Why didn’t you tell me? Didn’t you know how happy I’d be? Just wait ‘til the press finds out. This is better than I ever dreamed possible.” I kissed her again.
She wouldn’t stop staring at me. “You’re happy about this? You won’t throw me out on the streets?”
I came to standstill in front of her. I couldn’t wipe the silly grin off his face, not even when I saw how surprised she was. “Listen to me, Gabi. I really, really like you. I’ve never been this happy with anybody before. We’re gonna have a baby. We’re gonna bring this child into the world, and we’re gonna give it all the love it can stand. Do you hear me? We’re gonna make this the greatest thing to happen in the history of the world.”
She didn’t respond. She just stood there and blinked up at me. I could have knocked her over with a feather. At last, I couldn’t hold back anymore. I kissed her, and the floodgates opened. The invisible wall holding us apart came tumbling down.
I kissed her and kissed her some more. The ice thawed, and when she started to respond, the passionate warmth exploded through her lips. She flung herself at me with all her power. She came at me stronger than I could remember since our first days together. She didn’t hold back. She didn’t question. No nagging doubt made her hesitate.
I accepted her into my grateful arms. I scooped her up, and she strapped her legs around my waist. She burned in my embrace like never before. She mauled my lips and bit my tongue. She thrust her breasts into my face until I didn’t know what to kiss first.
I ravaged down her neck and nosed her neckline aside. She nibbled my forehead and my ears. She gasped and panted. Little noises squeaked out of her with every breath. God, I loved her when she was like this. There. I said it—or at least I thought it. I loved her. I loved everything about her. I never wanted to live without her, and I loved her this way a long time before I found out she was having my baby.
I took a step toward the couch, but her twisting, wriggling form made me lose my balance. I started to fall forward, but I recovered in time. I spun around, so I landed on my ass with her on top of me.
She smothered me all over with her glorious body. She ripped her dress down and pointed both her majestic breasts in my face. She crammed one of them into my mouth, and her alabaster flesh blocked my nose.
I snuffled into her beautiful folds. I couldn’t get enough of her. I tore her dress the rest of the way off to expose those curves I adored so much. She clawed my clothes off just as fast. She ripped my shirt open and took a mouthful of my skin. She mauled me up and down while her delicate fingers took hold of my belt.
My cock thumped between her legs. My nerves jangled touching her immaculate flesh. My head swam, and lights flashed before my eyes, but I couldn’t stop kissing her and biting those rapturous nipples and crushing my cock into her pussy.
She slapped my belt back and unzipped me. She had my cock out so fast I didn’t know what to do. She pounced on in all her animal madness. She jammed it in hard and sat down deep. I gasped out loud at the stunning intensity, but she already bounced up and down. She shook her hair back and moaned.
Her cheeks flushed, and her tongue glistening wet and red inside her open mouth. Her eyes drifted half-closed, and her nostrils flared. Her wet pussy spanked against my pubic bone as I felt myself go deep inside of her. My nuts tightened between her ass cheeks. Christ, she was good!
I rested both hands on her hips, but I didn’t need to pump. I leaned back on the couch and let her do what she wanted. She knew how to get herself there. She would get herself there in no time if I didn’t interfere.
I lay back and admired her. She was pregnant. Now that I knew, I recognized the signs. Her breasts hung fuller and more curvaceous than ever on her chest. Her hips spread to meet my pelvis driving up between her legs. That ass rounded so nice and firm in my hands.
She stroked back and forth on my lap. She took my cock to its limit and dabbled it out to her puffy entrance. She picked up speed, and her breasts swayed faster.
The words kept repeating in my mind. She was pregnant. She was pregnant. I was going to be a father, and I couldn’t have prayed for a better match to be the baby’s mother.
