The Billionaire's Secret Baby chapter 1
Samantha“Happy Birthday, Sam!”I raised my red solo cup into the air and let out a wild laugh as my friends cheered for me.Today was proving to be my best birthday yet, hands down.My friends had planned a rager for me in the woods just outside our small town of Greenswood.A bonfire blazed, and several kegs had been tapped.I was feeling good and tipsy and happy as I danced to the music blaring from someone’s pick-up.I was eighteen at last. A woman! The future was mine for the taking, or some sentimental crap like that.Whatever. I didn’t have to think about that just yet. I just wanted to enjoy my party and forget about everything else.Smiling, I spun in place and screamed out the lyrics to the song that was playing.Suddenly, I noticed a familiar figure emerging from the surrounding trees.He was tall, with shaggy blonde hair and familiar golden eyes. Eyes that were just like mine. I came to a stop. It took a few moments for my vision to clear, but when it did, I let out a sque

SamanthaThey were huddled around one of the kegs, cups in hand, talking to each other, seemingly unaware of the girls hovering around and eyeing them with obvious interest.He looked so cool and at ease. I began to wonder if maybe I should tell him how I felt. Maybe Jessica was right…what better time would there ever be?Maybe I was drunker than I’d thought.Whatever. Alcohol might be just what I needed to gain the courage to talk to him.“Okay.” I nodded.Jessica appeared surprised. “Okay?”“Yeah!” I clapped my hands together, pumping myself up. “Yeah, I’m going to do it. You’re right! Why not? Why shouldn’t I tell him how I feel?”“Hell, yeah!” Jessica declared. “That’s my girl! What are you going to do, exactly?”I pondered that question a moment before saying, “I’m…not sure. I think I’ll probably just wing it?”Jessica nodded in approval. “Love it. Flawless. Now, get on over there and get your man.”She shoved me forward. After a few seconds of stumbling, I regained my balance an

SamanthaHe sounded suddenly nervous, his voice cracking at the end of his words.“What?” I felt a surge of panic. No, no! He was supposed to say yes. Did he think I was kidding? This wasn’t how it was supposed to go. The way he’d been looking at me earlier… “Why not?”Ryan released a long, shaking breath before saying, “Look, Sam, I’m flattered, really, but you’re…you’re just a kid. Plus, you’re my best friend’s sister! There are some lines guys just don’t cross.”“You just told me I’d grown up.”He clenched his jaw, and his cheeks turned a slight tinge of pink.“Yes, I did,” he stammered. “Look, you’re a beautiful girl, but your brother…”I surged forward to stand directly in front of him. I reached up and clutched the front of his shirt.“Ryan, please,” I pleaded. “It’s the only thing I want.”He took hold of my shoulders but didn’t immediately push me away.His fingers curled into me, and he seemed to want to hang on tight to me.I watched his eyes as he stared down at me, and I c

SamanthaHe went still but didn’t try to break free.I felt some reassurance in that, so I kept kissing him.At last, he let out a snarl and slanted his lips over mine, taking control of the kiss and deepening it.He cupped the back of my head and tilted it.His other hand snaked down my torso to wrap around my waist, pulling me tight against him.Everything became a blur as our tongues clashed as the kiss went on and on.I was overwhelmed with sensation as Ryan touched me.I felt so giddy I couldn’t think straight.All I was certain of at that moment was that I didn’t want this to end. It just felt too…good.“I gasped his name when he moved his lips from mine to kiss along my jaw and down the side of my neck. “Please, don’t stop.”“I don’t think I can,” he hissed. “Damn it, Sam, do you know how hard I’ve tried…tried to…”“To what, Ryan?” I whispered, stroking his chin with my fingertips. “Tell me.”He gazed down at me with a furrowed brow and shook his head.“No,” he growled. “No mor

SamanthaPleasure shot through me like a bolt of lightning.I gasped and thrashed my head from side to side.Some of the pain eased, and he slid in deeper. He continued rubbing my clit in tight circles, and my body seemed to melt under his touch.I groaned and relaxed, and he finally was able to sink into the hilt.Ryan paused, holding himself over me as if giving me time to adjust to him as he continued playing with me.“That’s it,” he murmured. “Just like that, baby. I can feel you relaxing around me. I’m going to start moving again, all right?”I dug my teeth into my bottom lip and nodded, unable to form a coherent sentence.Ryan began to slide out of me. When only the tip remained inside me, he pushed back in.There was a small amount of discomfort, but there was far more pleasure than before.Ryan continued to move, pumping in and out of me faster and faster. I gripped his shoulders, hanging onto him as tightly as I could. I feared I would fly away if I didn’t cling to him.Our m

Samantha – 7 Years LaterBaconsizzled, and I carefully flipped it in the pan, doing my best to avoid the grease splatter.In another pan on the next burner over, I scrambled eggs, all while keeping an eye on the toaster nearby.There were a lot of moving parts, but I was used to it.There were always multiple balls in the air that I had to juggle, and it was pretty much second nature to me at that point.“Henry!” I called as I began scooping food onto plates. “Breakfast is ready. Come down now, please!”As I turned to place the plates on the little kitchen table behind me, I heard the pounding of small feet on the staircase just outside the kitchen door.The next moment, a little boy came barreling into the room. His dark brown hair was a wild mess, and his familiar blue eyes glittered with the kind of eager excitement that only young kids seemed capable of feeling. He was still dressed in his dinosaur footie pajamas. He was so adorable that it made my heart ache.He scrambled up into

SamanthaWhen they were done, I began clearing the table and said, “Jason, can you help Henry get ready for school? I’ll get things cleaned up here.”Nodding, Jason helped Henry down from his chair and took his hand to lead him back upstairs.When I was alone, I sighed, bracing my hands on the kitchen sink and hung my head. I didn’t want Jason to know that I was barely holding it together.Things were a lot tighter than he knew. I was barely scraping by with my job at the bookstore downtown. I loved working there and knew I could have a future there if I was able to stick it out just a little longer.I was determined to make it on my own, though.For six years, I’d taken care of myself and Henry without anyone’s help. Not because I had to, but because I refused to rely on anyone else for anything. I’d put my faith in another person before, and I’d been left burned and heartbroken…and pregnant.Gritting my teeth, I forced my mind not to go there, not to think of him.I heard footsteps

RyanThis place hasn’t changed a bit.After seven years away, I was back in my hometown for the first time, and it was like I’d never left.I drove along the main street, checking out all the downtown shops I remembered from my childhood. It was so strange, and I felt on edge. Like I didn’t belong there anymore.I supposed I really didn’t. I was not the same person I’d been when I’d left.The town may not have changed much, but I had. I’d gone out into the world and made a name for myself. I’d built an empire and dominated my profession. I’d taken my father’s small shipping company and grown it into a multi-billion-dollar international conglomerate, all by the age of twenty-nine.Yet, as I drove through my hometown, even after being away for so long, I somehow felt like a kid again.Jason was the only person I’d come back to this place for, which was ironic since he was also part of the reason I’d stayed away for so long.I’d considered turning down the invitation to the wedding, even

I held the door for her to get into the car. My dad picked up Makayla so she could give Deira one last hug while I walked around to get into the driver's side. We waved at everyone, and I drove away. As we wove through the grounds of the estate, I kept looking over, stealing glances at Deira as the dappled sunlight flitted over her, turning her hair gold and making her skin glow. I could feel heat pooling in my groin and a desperate need coursing through my veins. I thought again at how long it would be until we got to the hotel that night, and decided it was simply too long.Instead of turning toward the main road, I looped us around toward the back of the estate. I remembered a particularly secluded spot that was perfect for what I had in mind. A few minutes later, I pulled the car to a stop."Is something wrong?" Deira asked, looking over at me curiously."Nothing's wrong," I replied with a wicked grin. "I just don't want to wait until we get to Hawaii." When she realized what I me

CASSIUSThree Months LaterDeira made a beautiful bride.Watching her walk down the aisle toward me, with all our family and friends present, I knew that I had made the right choice in asking her to marry me. In fact, I knew that every choice I had made since that moment I decided to step into that steam room, despite it unexpectedly being occupied, had been the right choice.It was a simple ceremony, because once I'd proposed and she'd accepted, we both wanted things to move quickly. Neither of us saw a reason to wait. So, our whole wedding party was just three people. Scott was my one groomsman, and Dani was her one bridesmaid, and Makayla was the flower girl. In fact, Makayla was something of a flower empress, having demanded to be put in charge of all the floral decisions for the wedding. When that happened, Deira just laughed and looked at me."She gets this from you, you know," she had said, smirking.For my part, I thought she had made great decisions. The flowers looked beauti

A few days later,I was standing outside a hospital room, fidgeting with my dress. Cassius took my hand, pulling it away from the floral garment."You look great," he whispered. "Don't worry." We were about to go into his mother's hospital room, where his parents were waiting to meet Makayla and I for the first time. Makayla was bopping excitedly beside me. She had been on cloud nine ever since Cassius and I had explained that she had grandparents, and they were waiting to meet her. I, on the other hand, was very nervous."Ready?" Cassius asked. I took a deep breath, and nodded.It turned out that I didn't have anything to be nervous about. Cassius's father immediately stood up and gave me a warm hug, and his mother insisted I come sit by her so she could hold my hand and talk to me. They both were very kind to me and, more importantly, to Makayla. Just as she'd been with Cassius, Makayla seemed instantly at ease with them. It didn't take long before she was chatting away to them, talk

DEIRALeave it to Cassius to make a dramatic entrance, I reflected as I stared at him from afar. Whether it was barging into my steam room or crashing into my car or running through the airport yelling my name, he never did anything subtly. I looked at him, standing there breathing heavily. Had he run through the airport looking for me?I glanced back at Dani, and she raised an eyebrow. She didn't have to say anything more for me to understand the question she was asking. That raised eyebrow said, well, what are you going to do? It might as well have said, well, Deira, what do you want? I hadn't expected to have to answer that question at the airport, right before we went through security, but apparently, that's what was happening. Now I had two choices.I could turn my back on Cassius, take Makayla's hand, and walk through the security gate toward a totally new life, or I could go over to Cassius and ask him why he was here. I could give him one last chance to be part of my life. It

CASSIUSThough my mother was doing well, I still spent the next week or so in the hospital. Now that I'd reconciled with my parents, I wanted them to know that I was there for them. But also, I knew that once I returned to my real life, I would need to talk to Deira, and I wasn't ready. Not because I wasn't sure what to say—in fact, the opposite. I knew that I wanted Makayla and Deira to be part of my life now, and forever. But we'd had such a rocky path, I was a little scared of how Deira would respond to me.So, I put it off for days, until my mom finally prodded me to leave the hospital."You've been here forever," she said. "Go home, get a shower, and get a good night's sleep. And then, once you're refreshed, maybe talk to your girlfriend about us meeting our granddaughter." She winked at me."She's not my girlfriend, Mom," I protested, feeling like a teenager."But you like her, right?" my mother asked, and all I could do was grin in response. "See," she continued. "You have to g

The next morning, Dani took Makayla to school on her way to work, letting me sleep in. I laid around her apartment all morning in my pajamas, then went for a quick run before getting myself some lunch. I was very consciously not thinking about work, or Cassius, or anything else. I had half-expected him to call me at some point, but he didn't, and I couldn't help but be relieved. I didn't think I could talk to him until I decided what to do about Mr. White.In the afternoon, I picked up Makayla from school and took her to the park to play. That night, the three of us made pasta and played board games. It was nice to have some time to just have fun, without thinking about all of the stress of the past few months. The next day, after dropping off Makayla at school, I found myself thinking about my blog. I hadn't thought about it in months. I went to the home page and started looking over some of my past entries. Before long, I found myself writing down ideas for new posts. It had been ye

DEIRA I had hurried inside after getting out of Cassius's car, but I didn't want to go back to Dani's apartment when I was so upset. I waited until I saw Cassius drive away, and then I went back out to take a walk around the neighborhood. I had meant to calm down, but I found myself reliving our conversation and soon I was crying. Cassius not believing me about Mr. White hurt even more than I had let on. I'd let out all my anger on him, but beneath the anger was a deep pain and a sense of betrayal. Why did he think I would make something like that up? What did I have to gain from that? And did our relationship mean so little to him that the word of an employee he barely knew was better than my word? That last part stung more than I wanted to admit. For all the ups and downs of our relationship, it had never felt meaningless to me, but it seemed for Cassius this always came second to his job. He believed Mr. White over me, just like he had taken a business call instead of watching

After I got my dad calmed down, I went to find the doctor. I wanted a clear understanding of the accident and my mother's injuries. The doctor confirmed that the coma appeared to be because her body had been through a trauma, and that there was nothing worrying on the scans. All her other injuries were minor, especially considering the severity of the accident, but we wouldn't know her true status until she woke up. I made sure he understood that I was the point person now, and that my mom was to want for nothing. He nodded and reiterated that there was nothing to be done but wait. The waiting was excruciating.I found myself wanting to call Deira, but remembering the look on her face as she'd slammed the car door, I didn't think that was a good idea. I called Scott instead. He offered to come to the hospital, but I asked him to take care of the business instead. That way, I could concentrate on taking care of my parents."Of course, man. Whatever you need. Anything else I can do?" he
The Billionaire's Secret Baby chapter 47
The address wasn't far, and I made it there in twenty minutes. Deira was just taking Makayla inside when I pulled up. I waited in the car and a few minutes later she emerged. I was going to get out and meet her, but she walked right to the car and got into the passenger seat."I can't talk long," she said. "But I realized storming off like that earlier wasn't helpful, so I wanted to try to explain." She fidgeted, like she was nervous."I did talk to Mr. White," I said, wondering if what he said was true, and now she was nervous because she regretted her actions. At his name, she glanced over at me sharply."Did he admit what happened?" she asked, seeming surprised."He told me his side of things. Why don't you tell me yours?" At the phrasehis side of things, her face fell. She looked down at her hands and took a deep breath. Finally, she spoke."He accused me of sleeping with you to get my job," she said quietly."What?!" I hadn't been expecting that at all, and I was so shocked I fel
