*MALIYAH*

There was no way I had heard that,correctly.

“I’m not pregnant.”I argued.

The doctor blinked at me.”You are.”He stared at Alonzo then at me.”I think I should give you and your boyfriend some time to process things.”He let out,obviously realizing that this wasn’t good news for me.

“He’s not my boyfriend.”I murmured.

“Well…em…I’ll give you a minute.I’ll be back soon to inform you of your treatment plan.You need to stay healthy for yourself and for the baby.”With that,he left the ward.

My mind was in turmoil.

I wanted to believe that this was a mistake…that the doctor had read someone else chart to me but I knew that kind of mistake rarely happened.

And I had also mentally calculated the timeline.I had conceived this child that weekend on the yacht.

Damn it!

I should have told him I wasn’t on the pill.

I shouldn’t have had sex with him that carelessly.

And foolishly thinking I might not be overly fertile.

But I can’t be pregnant.

I just didn’t want to accept it.

    *MALIYAH*I stared up at Alonzo.My mind filled with thoughts of Ben.I tried to imagine how life with Alonzo would be and that felt bland.I was still hopelessly in love with Ben.And it scared me to think that I might not feel this overwhelming love for anyone else.I would always think of him.I would always think of Ben when my hand was pressed between my legs.I knew I would always want to say his name if I ever become intimate with another man.He had left his mark on me and nothing I do would ever erase it.I shook my head.”You shouldn’t want me anymore,Lonny.I will always think of him when I’m with you and that won’t be fair on you.”“I know you’re still healing.I know it would take time but I can make you forget about him.”I shook my head again.”If I’m ever able to get over him,it should be on my own.It’s horrible to use a person to forget about another.And besides,people should be together because they’re in love.It’d be incredibly selfish of me to be with you because my chi

    *MALIYAH*I browsed through the internet about the latest information about Ben.I read the fire incident was being ruled out as a gas leak.He had compensated all the affected families and he held a press conference to apologize and offer his condolences to the deceased,publicly.I stared at his face through the phone screen.I could tell he was trying so hard to appear calm,cool and collected.He genuinely looked so down and it seemed he had lost weight.Or was I being overly worried?I mean,I was only seeing him through my phone screen.After the press conference,so many reporters flock around him,asking him so many questions.Gosh.Can’t they just let the man breathe?I turned off my cellphone trying to calm down and trying to remind myself that it wasn’t my place to be so worked up about him.He had Charlotte.She would ease his stress in more ways than I could.*********************Charlotte slowly walked into his bedroom.He had just a pair of sweatpants on.She got into the bed an

    The scent of the woman on his laps,running her lips over his face felt strange and repulsive.It wasn’t like the one he was used to.He pulled back away from her and it felt as if he was seeing two faces at the same time.Maliyah’s face.Charlotte’s face.He shut his eyes,suddenly losing the urge to do anything with her.He pushed her off his body and staggered up to his feet.“Ben.”Charlotte purred,still trying to seduced him,she moved closer to him and placed her hand on his erection through his sweatpants.She could see his eyes flashed with arousal.Charlotte felt men were generally weak when it came to seduction.They would fall victim easily and when drunk to stupor,boy,they wouldn’t even have the willpower to put up a fight at all.So she was determined to have her way with him.If her family’s asset weren’t enough to make him hers anymore,she would have to trap him with a child.But surprisingly,it seemed that even in his intoxicated state,his heart and body still called for one

    *BENNETT*Maybe she didn’t mean those words she had said to me that night.My heart tightened recalling how serious she had looked.Was I just giving myself false hope?She might mean every bit of what she had said.Would I be able to handle being rejected again?I leaned against the seat trying not to let anything deter me.For now,I have to let her know how much she means to me.Drew pulled out in front of her house and I stared at the closed door,nervously.“You could wait for me somewhere close by.I’ll call you when I’m done.”“Okay,sir.”I got down from the car and he drove off.Sighing,I headed for the front door and rang the doorbell.“Who is…?”The door opened revealing Maliyah.She appeared shocked to see me and God,I had missed her.I knew I had missed her but now I realized just how much.Before I could stop myself,I grabbed hold of her hand and pulled her into me,hugging her,tightly.As I inhaled her scent and felt her warmth against me,if felt as if joy was being restored

Okay,and what safety measures do we have in place?...And they'll go via Suez?...How safe is Ben Sudan?....And when do they arrive in Darfur?... Okay, let's do it...Keep me abreast of the progress"And then he stuffed the phone in his pocket.“Sorry about that.”He murmured,placing the phone inside his pocket again.Just as he held my hand again,it started to ring.He brought it out and I saw him turned it off.It appears things were still rough at the company.“You should’ve answered that.”I commented.“I’ll be going back to the company after getting you home.I don’t know when I’ll get to see you again so I have to make this count right now.”I

    *MALIYAH*I stared at Ben knowing choosing Alonzo a second time would crush him,knowing that he would really stay away from me after this.I should save myself the heartache,the pain that might come from being with Ben.My mom had said I was terrible at making decisions,I know that right now,she would want me to go with Alonzo.But as I continued to stare at Ben,I couldn’t bring myself to take Alonzo’s hand.I might be making another terrible decision right now but I just didn’t have the heart to hurt him again.As I took a step towards him,Alonzo held my hand.“Maliyah,what are you doing?Have you forgotten how bad he is for you?”I slowly tugged his hand away.“I love him.And I think I love him more than I love myself.”Ben didn’t hear what I said though but I turned and walked up to him.Getting into his car,he shut the door.As Ben drove off,I stared at Alonzo through the rear-view mirror.I didn’t mean to hurt him this much.But had always known that I love Ben and I hope he can fi

    *MALIYAH*I moved in with Ben that day because I just couldn’t spend another day away from him.The following day,I got to the office super late.It had been hard for Ben and I to go our separate ways to work this morning.He had dropped me off at the front of Mobilotech and it was another struggle to get down from his car.He had to walk me into the company’s lobby hand in hand and we eventually let go of each other,promising each other that we would close from work early.“Look who finally decided to show up.”Timothy teased when I walked into his office to submit some documents to him.“I’m sorry…I was stuck in traffic.”That made him laugh,because it was an obvious lie.“My God,look at you,you’re glowing.You two are so in love.I was watching from my window…he practically walked you into the company,I thought he might just start work here because of you.”I laughed.”I’m missing him already.Tim,can I close early today?”“No.”He chuckled.“Please…”“Maliyah,look at the time…you’re very

    “You’re always in my head.”He said to me.I was going to go up in flames.“You’re in my blood.”I let out a shaky breath as he continued thrusting into me with the vibrator.“You’re in every one of my fucking veins.”Oh I needed him,I needed him right now.“Ben…Ben…wait…I need…I need your cock.”I panted,trying to control the movements of my hips to prevent myself from coming.“I want you inside of me when I come.”I murmured.He grinned at me.I gasped as the bulbous head slid from me.He knelt on the bed,positioning himself between my legs,nudging my legs wide with his powerful hair roughened thighs.I tried to catch my breath as I looked up at him,I tried to calm the thundering of my heart,the roar in my ears, but all I wanted was to feel his weight on me…in me.He was poised against me,I could feel him.One push and he’d be inside me.He leaned down over me, his legs opening me wider,his forearms resting next to my head as he looked straight down into my eyes.His jaw flexed before h

    *MALIYAH*I tried to ease my tensed muscles,to calm the erratic breathing,the roaring of my blood,but only managed to gasp again as he rocked back and forth once more.“It’s okay.”He groaned.”Relax”I swallowed at the blunt pressure,squeezed my eyes shut and tried to do just that.I shifted my hips a little on the bed in a futile effort to ease his way, for a better angle,to help alleviate the feeling of fullness.“Easy.”He ground out.I was holding myself taut in anticipation of his next retreat and entry.I could feel it,but my muscles wound tighter,nerves strung taut.My body just wouldn’t cooperate.It felt as if he was breaking into me all over again.He moved completely out of me and I quickly held his hand.“No…please…don’t stop.I…I just…it’s been awhile since I…”I paused,not sure if I should talk about the men I had tried to be with in London.“I don’t want to hear about your sex experience with other men.”He informed me,calmly.“Does that make you love me less?”I asked,my heart

    *BENNETT*“Kiss me,Ben…please.”She urged,pulling her face close to mine.I caressed her gently in my arms.She was warm and soft.I lowered my head and molded my lips to hers.Fuck!I ran my tongue over her lips and between them.I groaned at the shaft of heat that arrowed down right into my cock and tightened my balls.I dipped my tongue inside her mouth,once,twice, a third time before I pulled sharply back.God I had been avoiding kissing or touching her,because I knew that would wear off the tiny bit of resistant I had left.I took a deep breath in a futile effort to stem the rapid thud in my heart and fight the urge to kiss her again.But when she rubbed herself against me,I gave in again.I pressed my lips against hers.Maliyah nibbled along my bottom lip,used her tongue to taste the shape of my mouth.The soft,tentative moments caused a curl in my gut.I felt her soft breath fan out against my mouth as she pulled back and that sigh was my undoing.Before I had the time to think about

    *MALIYAH*It’s a Saturday morning and I awoke without Ben in bed.I knew he wasn’t going to work today.Running my hand through my hair,I walked out of the bedroom and went in search for him.I found him at the gym.I leaned against the door as I watched him do some exercises.I nibbled my lower lip watching him do some pulls up.He was bare chested and his muscles bulged with his every movement.I squeezed my thighs together feeling hot and bothered.Oh God,I wanted him to touch me so bad.I stood there,watching until he was done.When he started to gulp down a bottle of water,I finally walked in,trying to keep my hands to myself.“I might just take you by force,Mr Graham.I don’t know how long I can resist this temptation.”I said to him.I could see he was trying hard not to smile.God,how much longer was he going to make me chase him?Not that I was tired of chasing him but I wish he could just give in a bit.He clearly was still very much attracted to me and he’s equally been trying

    *MALIYAH*Things were pretty messy at the office that day.With so many calls,the news of him coming out was pretty scandalous,because it also had to do with a divorce.People were throwing shades,saying whatever they felt about the whole thing but Timothy was unbothered.I could tell he wasn’t fully unbothered though.He loved his family and it would make him happy if they accepted him.But he didn’t really care about what the public thought though.He felt people who didn’t know him personally had no right to judge him.Hell,he had even set up a date with Miles.Miles seemed to like him too but was still pretty hurt by Timothy’s rejection in high school so he was currently playing hard to get.I hope they could get back together soon.At the close of work,I walked out of the office,excited to go see Ben.I frowned seeing someone else at the receptionist stand.My mom.The receptionist had called earlier that she wanted to see me but I had specifically told her to send this woman away.
