BLAIR POVWith only two hours until my flight, I was feeling a bit overwhelmed by my packed luggage. But now that I've gotten everything sorted, I'm starting to relax. Since leaving Ronnell's company, I've been making a conscious effort to prioritize my health and fitness. For now, though, I'm going to focus on enjoying the flight and letting go of any remaining stress.The thought cheered me up, and I hurried over to Nathan’s bassinet to pick him up. He was crying again, his tooth obviously bothering him. I felt so sorry for the little guy."Hey there, my little buddy. Want to go for a ride?" I asked, but his tears only intensified. I smiled softly and pressed a kiss to the bridge of his nose. A chuckle escaped my lips as he began to suck on my open neck, seeking comfort for his aching tooth. There's nothing quite like Nathan to soothe my worries.As I fastened the baby carrier to my chest, I quickly gathered a few bags, knowing Samuel would be here in just three minutes. As I swung
RONNELL POVBlair trembles against me. The noises that leave her mouth are ones that I could listen to on repeat for the rest of my life and never for once get sick of. I suck her clit into my mouth, then push her legs back until they are close to touching her own head.God, she looked like a goddess in such a position. Open up completely for me, spread widely and that's every man's dream. My dick was aching inside my pants, and I knew that I was going to end up releasing him at some point, but this was about Blair right now, not me.I'm apologizing to her.What better way to apologize than letting her come all over my tongue with so much satisfaction? Women always want to feel important, and that's exactly what I will do because I won't let her take care of me. She will try, I'm sure, but I'm not going to let that happen. Not after what she had said to me.The words she spewed at me before we rushed into the house are running on repeat through my head. She confessed her feelings for
BLAIR POVEverything seemed so pointless and honestly made no sense at all.I honestly liked this house before but not anymore. After going through some renovation and all, I found it cute and all, and I would always be proud of the work I had put into it but it just didn't feel like home.I had gotten Nathan down for the night, but it hadn't been easy. Rosa and Samuel had stopped by right after bedtime with a bottle of wine and of course, moral support. We were seated in my pretty living room, a glass of wine into our evening. Sam and Rosa on the gross couch, me channelling Nathan by the lounging blanket on the floor. “You're being smart,” Rosa said, her glass perched at her lips.“I know.” I buried my face in the blankets, careful not to knock my wingless over. I was limiting myself to two and I didn't want to spill a drop. "Hey there, smarty pants," Samuel teased, a playful grin spreading across his face. "You shouldn't look so stressed out about being intelligent." He playfully
BLAIR POVWe had a rough night. Nathan had been up and down, cranky as hell due to the pains from his tooth, and I had barely slept for more than an hour straight. By six-fifty, we were up and dressed, Nathan in his car seat, ready to go.It was too early for this, but I couldn't make myself wait another second to go see Ronnell and find out where his head was. He and I had done a lot. Said even more. But on this topic, our communication had really failed. We were both coming from places of hurt and insecurity. I could be the brave one, though. I could put myself out there and tell him what I really wanted. If he didn't want the same, at least I would know. I could then figure out what my next step was, but I just couldn't skip this one. This step was the most important. “Okay, my love. Let's go see daddy.”I put the car seat down to sling my diaper bag over my shoulder and open the door. It was a good thing too. Otherwise, I would have dropped him. But Ronnell was here.Standin
BLAIR POVHe slid his hand to the back of my hair, fisting it just shy off too tight. “We need to tell Smith that Nathan is mine,”As adamant as he was, what lay beneath his statement was protection of his personal belongings and slight fear. I heard it in the slight quiver of his voice. The grip on my hair, and the urgency in his eyes.I had missed this when I would come into his office to seek comfort from him after trying to reach Smith to claim Nathan and he ended up rejecting. Then, I didn't recognize that Ronnell had been just as worried. He was attached to Nathan and had taken care of him via me since he had become aware of his existence. Of course he had been worried about another man coming into the picture.“Of course, we would tell him that because Nathan is ours and not his.”A satisfied rumble vibrated in his chest. “That's right, princess. Nathan is ours. Mine and yours.”“And you love him so much.”“I do. I love that little champ and his mother too. You are both mine.”
BLAIR POVThe spring sun shines down like a sword aimed at my own personal gloom. I stepped into the grand adorned ballroom, my heels clicked on the marble floor, and I could feel all eyes on me but I ignored all of it because today was my best friend's engagement party. The chandeliers cast a mocking golden glow on me. A swift wave of insecurity washes over me as I search for my own seat among the set-up round tables.I instantly spotted Ella who stood around some guests, her cheeks flushed with so much excitement. Our eyes coincidentally met, and she gave me a smile and a wave, nearly hoisting a glass of wine in the process. “Blair! I'm very glad that you could make it!” she said as she threw her arms around me, the familiar scent of her perfume instantly easing most of my discomfort. I inhaled more while I tried to relax In her embrace, giddy energy emitting off of her. “Of course, I won't miss this special day of yours for anything. You look absolutely stunning!” I say. “I just
BLAIR POVAn unintentional blush appeared on my cheeks from my spicy thought but a familiar voice hit me out from the thought bringing me back to my present moment. “Blair! Where have you been? I have been looking for you,” Ella gushes, trudging towards us with her very high heels that may eventually cause her blisters. She stood in front of us, ignorant of the tension hanging thick in the air. “What are you both doing here? I have been searching the whole place for you two___the toast is about to start soon.” I blinked my eyes, trying to shake off whatever spell Ronnell had cast on me. “I was about to head back inside,” I say with an unnatural smile. Ella looks at both of us as her eyes tend to reveal her surprise. “You guys already met each other,” she says. “I was actually planning on introducing you both.” She turns her attention back to Ronnell. “I told you she was extraordinary. You should honestly consider her for your business. Trust me, I know exactly what I'm talking abou
RONNELL POVThe sweet smell of Blair's Fragrance stays on my skin, a haunting remembrance of the intimacy we had shared. I closed my eyes to inhale deeply and moved back to the feel of her soft body huddled against mine but she was gone. She had slipped out of the hotel suite earlier that morning, gathered her things, leaving a sweet and tempting kiss on my lips that only tended to tease me every now and then. The memory elicited an unfamiliar ache in my chest. Fuck_ I just can't afford to feel this way about her or any woman. With a frustrated sigh escaping my lips, I slipped out of bed and dragged myself into the bathroom. The cold floor offers a sharp contrast to the warmth I felt on the bed, a welcome distraction as I turned on the shower and stepped under the spray.The water washes away the evidence of our night together, but it also does nothing to ease the deep turmoil in my mind. I shouldn't have given in to the attraction between us. I should have known better but when sh
