I glance at him from the corner of my eye. How strange is it to keep running into the man whose baby I’m carrying? I didn’t expect to see him again after that night, yet here he is, in the flesh, right beside me. I knew this place looked familiar when Jaden pulled up, but his being here isn’t that too much of a coincidence? It’s like the universe is shoving us together, but we keep screwing it up. Now I’m evicting the father of my child. I sigh—great, so much for any future we might’ve had. If he didn’t hate me before, he probably does now. Maybe I dodged a bullet. If he bolted when he found out I was pregnant, imagine how he’d react if he knew he was the father.

“So, where’s the father?” My eyes widen. Can he read my mind?

“Huh?”

“The father of your baby.”

“Umm…” I bite my lip nervously, unsure of what to say.

“You don’t have to answer if you don’t want to. I was just making conversation.”

“Ah… It’s not that. The father—he’s not in the picture.” I settled on the absentee father

  • My Donor   Chapter 19-Pretend to be a family

    AmaijaI sneak a peek at him as we climb the steps, still in disbelief that this is happening. Just hours ago, I was trying not to think about him after he ditched me at the club, and now I’m getting the chance to live with him and know the other half of the child I’m carrying. When I started this journey, I never expected this opportunity, so I plan to make the most of it. One day, when you ask who he is, I can tell you all about this time we shared—that Daddy’s a great guy. He was so concerned about a woman he’d only met twice and a baby he didn’t know was his. I wonder how he’d react if he found out. Would he be happy? Would he want to be in the baby’s life? Who am I kidding? If he wanted a wife and child, he’d have them instead of donating his sperm.“Ami… Ami.”“Huh?” I look up at him, confused.“The door,” he says, pointing at my front door.“Oh.” I quickly open it, step inside, and wait for him to follow.“I’ll get you a set of keys.” I head toward the living room, then remember

  • My Donor   Chapter 20- Very Single

    Ami“So, what would you like to eat?” he asks as we enter the kitchen. He releases my hand, and I immediately feel like something is missing.“Ami?”“Huh?”“What do you want?” he asks as he heads over to the refrigerator and opens it.“I’ve been on a pasta and pizza bender since I got pregnant,” I say, taking a seat at the kitchen island.“Pizza and pasta?” he repeats, poking around in the fridge.“Yeah, I think I’m addicted—or the baby is. I’ve been craving everything with carbs lately. By the time I have this baby, I’ll be seventy pounds heavier.”“Come on, you won’t gain seventy pounds. And even if you do, you’ll still be the most beautiful woman I’ve ever laid eyes on,” he says, closing the refrigerator. I stare at him, stunned, unsure how to respond to a compliment like that. He clears his throat after a couple of minutes of silence has passed.“Most beautiful…” I whisper, just loud enough for him to hear.“Don’t put me on the spot. I’m sure you’ve heard that before,” he says awkw

  • My Donor   Chapter 21- Welcome to the Family

    Eriq “Very single,” I whisper as I lean in closer. My eyes drift to her lips—those lips I keep dreaming about, aching to taste again. They’re right there. All I have to do is lean in a bit more. Just a —just more. I’ve wanted to kiss her all day. Whenever she smiles, I want to pull her into my arms and kiss her senselessly, but logic always stops me. She’s pregnant, with a boyfriend—someone she met after I ditched her. I have no right to want or expect more. I shouldn’t want anything, but one look at her makes me greedy. I want her, and from the way she’s looking at me, I’m starting to think maybe I have a chance.—just one kiss. I inhale and lean closer, our lips almost brushing.*Ding dong.* The doorbell rings. I jump back, startled by the sudden noise as Ami turns her head toward the door. “I should get that,” she says. I want to tell her not to go. I want to pull her into my arms and kiss her, but the confidence I had moments ago vanishes. Why would she want me? I’m just so

  • My Donor   Chapter 22- Hot and Heavy

    EriqI arrive at Vincent’s an hour and a half later. Violet is my cousin Vincent’s only child. She’s been attached to me since she was a baby, and I adore her. Whenever I have free time, I spend it with her, having tea parties or dancing.“Zio!” I smile as a chubby little girl with brown hair and big brown eyes comes running toward me.“Zio, you’re okay!” she says, latching onto my leg. She’s probably been waiting there all day since she saw the fire.“But I was worried. The fire was so big,” she adds.“Of course I am. Your Zio is big and strong,” I say, picking her up and kissing her cheek. She’s so sweet.I hope when I have a daughter, she’s as sweet as this little cutie. I smile as an image pops into my head—a little girl with green eyes and big, blonde-brown curls. A girl who looks like Ami. I know I’m getting ahead of myself. Just because her brother welcomed me into the family doesn’t mean Ami and I will end up together or have an adorable daughter with her eyes and smile. But a

  • My Donor   Chapter 23- Maybe Love

    EriqI open my eyes slowly and glance at the unfamiliar industrial pipe above my bed. Where…? I turn to my left and realize I’m in the bedroom at Ami’s apartment. It’s amazing how much has changed in one day. Yesterday started like any other, then I saw her again, moved in with her, cooked for her, and even kissed her. I smile, remembering our kiss last night, but my smile fades when I recall her calling out for the father of her child. She wants him, not me—and he’s probably better for her and the baby than I’ll ever be. After all, I’m broke, homeless, living in her apartment, with a crazy cousin who burned down my—shit, Flavio. That lunatic won’t stop until I join him. I can’t stay here and put Ami and the baby at risk. I need to tell her and find somewhere else to stay—maybe with Glen, or perhaps my parents’ place is best. Flavio’s unhinged, but he wouldn’t burn down their house. I should stay there until I figure things out, but first, I have to break the news to Ami.I don’t want

  • My Donor   Chapter 24- Stay

    I wait for the door to close and a few minutes to pass before I turn around to face Vector.“Before you say anything, I can explain,” he says as I glare at him.“Okay, explain to me why you can’t trust my choice. Explain why you think I’m a fool. Go ahead. Explain why you’re telling someone I brought here to get out of my company!” I shout, seething with anger.“It’s our company. We’re partners, and of course, I don’t think you’re a fool. I just don’t want you to get hurt again.”“I brought Eriq here as an employee, not a potential boyfriend for you to grill. Even if I were interested in him, it’s none of your business. Whether my heart breaks a million times, it’s none of your business.”“Don’t say that!” he yells. “Of course it’s my business. I care about you.” I exhale sharply.“I know you think of me as a little sister.”“I don’t.”“What?”“I don’t think of you as my sister,” he says as he steps closer to me. I stare at him, stunned.“I’ve never thought of you as a little sister, a

  • My Donor   Chapter 25- The Fish

    Dad/ZayneI open my eyes slightly as light streams into the room. I look over at my wife and smile. I can’t believe that after all these years, she still makes me feel like I’m on cloud nine whenever she’s near. I lean over to wake her with a kiss, hoping for some morning action.“Good morning, my lo—”WHAMShe suddenly bolts upright, smacking me in the forehead. I grab my head and squint, but she’s staring straight ahead, panting.“My love?” She turns to me slowly.“Somebody’s pregnant.”“Huh?” I furrow my brows, clutching my throbbing forehead. Pregnant? What is this crazy woman on about?“Who’s pregnant, and why did you jump up like that?”“I dreamt a fish was chasing me,” she says. A fish? My brain stalls for a second, trying to process her dream.“My love, a fish doesn’t have legs.” I chuckle at her silliness, but she’s not amused and slaps my shoulder.“Hey, no hitting the husband,” I say, grabbing her hand and kissing it.“Whose husband are you?” she grumbles. I laugh. She alway

  • My Donor   Chapter 26- Second Kiss is the Charm

    Eriq“If you don’t get up here, I’m going to start without you,” I call down to Ami from the top of the staircase. It’s been a little over a week since I moved in after she asked me to stay, and so far, she’s kept her promise—two bodyguards follow us whenever we leave the house. Still, I’m not convinced staying here is the right choice. I could never forgive myself if my presence put her and the baby in danger, but when she asked me to stay, I couldn’t say no. I don’t know if it was because I didn’t want to leave or because of the way she looked at me that day. It gave me a flicker of hope that she might want us to be more than what we are now—boss and employee.The work is easier than I expected. I mostly cook, set appointments, and help her answer emails. I work about four hours a day, and the rest of the time, I spend painting.When Ami isn’t working, we play video games or watch movies, and it usually ends with me carrying her to bed. She’s kissed me three times now, always in a dr

  • My Donor   Chapter 41- Secrets, Saltfish, and Morning-After Regrets

    AmiPanic and disbelief crash over me as Brin’s words echo in the night air. Eriq waking up right then doesn’t help. He blinks, dazed, realizing Brin and I are half-carrying him between us.“Ami?” he mumbles, glancing at Brin.My heart races. Did he hear her? How’s he going to take this? Maybe he’ll be happy—I cling to that tiny hope. It’s not the perfect moment, but I was going to tell him eventually, so maybe this is fine.“The baby,” he says, reaching out to touch my stomach.“Eriq—I was going—” I start, but he leans in and kisses me. It’s soft, warm, and sends a whirlwind of feelings through me—confusion, surprise, and something deeper. Does this mean he’s okay with it?“Eriq?” I whisper as our lips part. “Are you…”“I love you.” He smiles, resting his head on my shoulder.Relief floods me, washing away my fears. His second “I love you” tonight hits me hard—he loves me, and he’s fine with being the father. It’s like a boulder’s been lifted off my chest, and the emotions I’ve been

  • My Donor   Chapter 40- Moonlit Confessions (And Other High Ideas)

    AmiWe stumble out of the tenth store of the day, bags in hand. I didn’t want to come out, but I’ve had a blast. Shopping and lunch with the girls felt amazing—it’s been ages since we’ve all been together like this. Now, though, I’m ready to head home and crash with my man. I wonder how he’s holding up. Dad promised to keep an eye on him, so I hope he’s okay.“Where should we go now?” Aunt Kenya asks, snapping me out of my thoughts.Where should we go? I frown. “I think we should head home. I’m tired, and my feet hurt.”“Tired?” Aunt Kenya raises an eyebrow. “You’ve been sitting most of the time. How are you tired? More like you’re itching to get back to that man of yours. You can survive a few more hours without him.”“Auntie!” I yelp, my face heating up.She laughs, loud and unapologetic, shaking her head. “You’ll see him soon enough. Come on, we’ve got five more stores to hit today.” She strides off.“Mom,” I groan as the others follow Aunt Kenya.“We’ll head back soon, sweetie. We

    EriqI can’t keep myself from smiling as I peel the potatoes. Her mother likes me. I have one ally in my goal to win over Ami.“Mom!” Jaden runs into the kitchen, snatches the potato peeler from me, and glares at me.What’s wrong with him? He’s acting like the first time I met him. “Mom, why didn’t you tell me you need help? Why did you ask him?”He says, his eyes still shooting daggers at me.“I didn’t ask him. He offered to help. You can help if you want to, but he’s already doing the potatoes. Why don’t you make the dough for the fried dumplings?”“Okay, mom.” He throws the peeler down, walks over to her, and kisses her cheeks.I shake my head, confused, before resuming what I was doing. We all work together in mostly silence for a while.“Are you two done?” Mrs.Klein asks after a while.“Almost,” I say as I look down at the potatoes and see only three left. “Do you want anything else done?”“I’m almost done, mom. You can have me do it instead.” Jaden comes running towards us, his h

  • My Donor   Meet the family

    Eriq I glance back at Ami, and sure enough, she looks worried. Our eyes meet, and I smile to reassure her before her mother pulls me away. Judging by her mother’s attitude toward me, I don’t think it will be as bad as she does, but I know she is worried for my sake. Which means I have some place in her heart even if she doesn’t love me yet. It gives me hope that maybe someday soon, I can tell her I love her. I have been holding back for the last few weeks and feel I’m suffocating without saying those three words. “I bet he’s Asian.” someone says as we draw closer to the family room. “No, this one is white,” Jaden says. “White, that’s new. How old is he?” “I don’t know,” Jaden says. “I bet two hundred and fifty thou he’s twenty-four.” “I’ll take that action,” “No, you’ve already met him. So both you and Zara are excluded.” I chuckle, amused by their banter. They remind me of my family. I guess all families are the same no matter how much money you have. “So 250, who’s in…” “Ah

  • My Donor   Call me Mom

    AmiI pull my pants on, then my shirt, and grab my shoes. We’re getting ready to leave for Jamaica soon. I frown. Two weeks with my , overbearing family is not my idea of a good time. Especially since I’m still a little miffed, that Mom felt the need to blackmail me into going. She can be so annoying, but I can’t be too upset since Eriq is right. The entire family changed their schedules so that I could go. I mean, even if is overbearing, it is sweet.I feel the corner of my belly stretching, pulling me from my thoughts. I smile as I reach down and touch my stomach. Every time I feel them move, it makes me so happy. Our baby.“Daddy and I can’t wait to meet you.” I sigh, my heart feeling troubled as I remember I haven’t told Eriq it’s his baby. I was going to tell him, but his father for sick, and then mom changed the date of the trip, so it didn’t feel like the right time. I can’t drop this news on him and two weeks with my family at the same time. I’ll just wait until we get back fr

  • My Donor   Too many lies

    Eriq I inhale, trying to calm myself as I stare at the arrogant shit smirking at me. I want to punch in Flavio’s teeth for what he pulled today. However, they outnumber me and are probably all armed. I glance at the three men in the room, one by the door I recognize from the picture and two other men behind him. “Welcome to the family business.” “The family business is an auto shop, Flav. What the fuck was that today?” “This is the new family business. Your little friend will be untouched if you comply.” Anger burns through my body. I clench my jaw, trying to resist the urge to lunge at him. “I already told you I’m not interested in whatever bullshit you have going on. This is not the life I want to live.” “Are you living the life now? I see that pretty little thing you’re with. What will happen when she needs money to do her hair or her nails but her boyfriend is broke?” I chuckle at the thought of Ami needing money from me. “You won’t find it funny when she leaves you for ano

  • My Donor   Chapter 35- Don't Fall for me

    EriqMy heart nearly stops. I sprint out of the room, ignoring Glen’s shouts as I race for the door. What if Flavio kidnaps her? I’ve never seen him physically harm anyone, but he once set my apartment on fire to get what he wanted. What else might he be capable of? I should’ve known better than to bring her here. I should’ve suspected he might be watching Glen. I should’ve moved away to keep her safe, but I stayed because I couldn’t bear to leave her. Now she’s in danger, and it’s all because I couldn’t stay away. If he touches her, I swear… I gritted my teeth as I bounded down the last flight of stairs and burst out of the building. I run to the car—she’s not there. I scan the area, but she’s nowhere in sight. Grabbing my phone, I dial Flavio’s number. He picks up after the second ring.“Where the hell is she?” I demand.“So, she is important to you?” he taunts.“I swear, if you lay a finger on her, I’ll bury you six feet under.” My voice shakes with a mix of anger and fear.“Finally

    “She did what? How do you know it’s broken?” Eriq asks, holding the phone to his ear. “Well, I’m in the middle of something. I’ll let you know.” He pulls the phone away as his friend’s voice rises in a frantic scream.“What’s wrong? Is it an emergency? We can cut our date short,” I offer, concerned.“It’s…” He hesitates, then presses the speaker button so I can hear.“Are you seriously going to leave me here?!” Glen shouts through the phone.“Yes, call your parents,” Eriq replies coolly.“I don’t want my parents to see me like this!”“Then call an ambulance. I’m busy. I told you to stop picking up random women.” I furrow my brows, puzzled. What does a random woman have to do with this?“She was hot, and you know our health insurance is terrible. I can’t afford the emergency room fee—especially after getting robbed,” Glen whines.“A woman robbed him?” I ask, stunned.“Yes, and she also, according to him, broke his, um…” Eriq trails off, looking uncomfortable.“Broke what?”“His… his… uh

  • My Donor   Chapter 33- Dates and Dicks

    Finally, Ami and I are going on a date. It’s a bit late considering everything we’ve already shared, but better late than never. I just hope she enjoys it. She’s accustomed to the finest experiences, and I’m certain this won’t measure up to some of the extravagant dates she’s been on. Still, I hope it’s enough because she deserves nothing less than the best. My smart, loving, tough cookie with a heart of gold. My little weirdo. The memory of her crawling into my room on all fours makes me chuckle. I couldn’t believe she was the one sneaking off with my shirts, but knowing my scent comforts her fills me with the greatest joy. It means she’s attached to me. Maybe this thing between us will grow into something more than a fling. For me, it already has, but I can’t quite read her. I know she likes me, yet I’m unsure how deep her feelings run. I want to ask, but I’m afraid of what she might say. I shake my head, pushing away thoughts of the future. I need to focus on the present and make to
