Amberleigh should have known that even after getting shot and nearly bleeding to death, Leo’s first concern would be for others. As tears slipped down her cheeks, Leo’s hand tightened even more around hers. And his first words were to try and sooth her distress. “Don’t…cry Love,” he rasped out. His voice was barely above a hoarse whisper, but Amber heard its message loud and clear. She only cried harder, but now her tears fell down over her smile. “It’s happy tears Leo. I’m so glad you came back to us. I love you so much Leo.” “I… love you too…”Amber brought his hand, still entwined in hers, up to her lips and kissed it. Leo’s fingers opened up to wipe away her tears. And naturally it only touched her heart even more. It certainly didn’t help stop her waterworks or snot. “You scared the hell out of us man. Don’t ever fucking do anything like that again!” said Grayson. His tone started out
Cori was kind enough to not only supply Leo with some sponges to moisten his mouth, but also a box of tissues. There was not a dry eye in that basement and the med student also took one for herself. After their tears had abated for the time being, though unlikely to be the last shed, Leo popped one of the small sponges on a stick into his mouth and sucked on it. “Yummy. Just like Mom makes,” he joked, “do you have these in another flavor?” Cori chuckled, “Sorry only cardboard flavored. Be sure to leave your complaints to management. Has the pain meds helped?” “Yes, thank you. I can’t wait until I get to eat Jello and broth. Delicious.” “Leo, you’re supposed to be letting your voice rest,” reminded Grayson, “and I hate to be the one to break it to you buddy, but you’re going to have to lay off the booze for a while. The Doc had to take out some of your liver to stop the bleeding.” But Leo didn’t seem too di
Amberleigh knew it was in bad taste to fantasize about a three-way involving the father of your child and his best friend/your current boyfriend, especially while both of them were in the room with you engaged in playful banter back and forth from around your boyfriend’s sick bed. Real classy right there. But the guilt of it still couldn’t make those naughty images leave her head. Between her legs growing rather wetter by the minute as that delicious fantasy played out in her mind. Leo would be the one more open to trying new things, going with the love making flow, while Grayson would be the dominant one. The billionaire would be in command, claiming her pussy for himself. Leo would be up for experimentation, taking her up the ass if she asked him too, or taking something up his no doubt. He hadn’t shied away from their anal play in the past. He’d gotten off on it, while she had never repeated that route on Grayson. The billionaire clearly hadn’t liked
Grayson said nothing to Amberleigh and avoided eye contact when she left the bathroom a short while later. On outside appearances, one would think a man who could have any woman in the city he wanted, and probably had fucked well into the double digits if not higher, wouldn’t blush over stories about measuring dicks or catching a woman masturbating. But Amber knew looks could be deceiving and doubted the billionaire’s count was very high actually.First of all, he’d been faithfully engaged to Courtney Van Tessin from the ages of twenty to twenty-two and had started dating her at the age of eighteen. From the way Leo had described Grayson in their youth, he was more a nerdy, late bloomer. He may not have even lost his virginity to a girl before he started dating that cunt. Then there was that surrogate in Manhattan which came the year before Amber and ended badly. So who knew what other women came after Courtney and until Amber?Leo had told Amber without shame he’d lost his V Card at
Amberleigh watched Leo and Grayson going back and forth for another minute or two in their argument. She took a deep breath and tried to mentally prepare herself, to figure out the right words to say. Cori was like a fly on the wall, sinking into the background, cleaning up the area, and trying to stay out of the way. But if Giovanni Costa trusted her and her family to keep secrets, then so did Amber. Besides it was a little too fucking late to worry about that now anyway.Amber cleared her throat, “I need to tell you both something. I think you should sit down for this Grayson. It’s not easy to say.”Her eyes were already burning. Both men turned to look at her, though Leo’s expression was less hostile than the scowl on the billionaire’s face. Even Grayson’s body language interpretated he wasn’t open to listening to her. But she would not be intimidated or back down.“The decision has already been made. You are not moving back into the penthouse under any circumstances so there’s no
Amberleigh wasn’t above using the baby card as Grayson had done over and over lately. It did seem to soften him like butter in her hands. She could see the way his throat bobbed with the force of his swallow and hear the way his words came out softer.“All the more reason to keep you, Leo, and baby far away from this fucked up mess. You’ve seen what these people are capable of Amber.”“All the more reason for us to stick together Grayson. United we stand, divided we fall. Keep your enemies close right?”“I’m not going to agree to this. I won’t allow you to put yourself and our baby in harm’s way. No, I’ll return to Courtney. Feed her some story about the kidnappers letting me go in the park. I’ll upgrade the security system in the penthouse. And I’ll watch her like a fucking hawk. She’s bound to slip up sometime, especially since she’ll think the kidnappers fucked her and Hugo over. Desperate and angry people make mistakes. And it may just help me get to the bottom of this business a
Amberleigh wouldn’t say that Leo was a pushover exactly, but the chef had a problem telling her no and was often easy to convince of things that she suggested. Just like with Grayson, Leo certainly didn’t like the idea of her moving back into the penthouse. But he also knew Amber well enough by now, that she wouldn’t change her mind. Arguing with her would be a waste of time. He just accepted it as a fact as soon as she told him their plans to return to Grayson’s high-rise under the guise of a fucked over kidnapping and post an emergency appendectomy. Grayson insisted that Leo take it slow as the chef was immediately ready to get dressed and get the hell out of dodge. But first things first, Leo would need to get up for the first time since his surgery without falling and Amber and Grayson needed a learning session with Cori on how to take care of L-Dawg. Because the home health nurse or the Doc wouldn’t be able to care for Leo 24/7, so it would fall to his penthouse
Amberleigh decided to be the one with the bigger balls in the room and extend the olive branch so to speak. She held out her hand towards the surly billionaire. “I, Amberleigh Dubois, do solemnly swear to let past grievance go and try to the best of my ability to not hold any grudges or throw the past in Grayson Andre Godwin’s face.” Grayson scoffed and hesitated. He left Amber hanging a bit. Leo cleared his throat and narrowed his eyes at his friend. “This is ridiculous,” said Grayson through gritted teeth, “but fine!” He shook Amber’s hand quickly. “Say it. You must say the words to make it count,” she said. “I, Grayson Godwin do solemnly swear to the best of my ability to let past grievances go and not throw the past in Amberleigh Dubois’ face. There I said it. Are you happy?” “Close enough. And I will be happy. After I get some more coffee and that bastard and his cunt spawn are in prison getting where they belong.” “No more caffeine. Our baby will be born addicted to that
Amberleigh's private chef had indeed made a spread worthy of a queen. Chocolate covered strawberries, a tantalizing fruit and cheese board, cucumber sandwiches, stuffed mushrooms, lamb kabobs, and that was just his starters. Dinner he kept a well guarded secret. Amber just hoped now he would be setting the table for three and Grayson would stay with them. He deserved to spend the holiday with those who loved him. As Amber and Grayson dug in, Leo pulled a box from beneath the counter and handed it to her. He gave her a kiss on the cheek. “Happy Birthday, Love.” “But I thought I already got my present babe,” she smiled. “Open it then. I’m sure you’ll like this one better.” Amber opened the black box to find a golden necklace inside. Dangling upon it was a pendent etched with an engraved image of the baby’s face from the last ultrasound. Well the last one Leo had been present for. Tears clouded her eyes. “Oh Leo, I love it!” Amber wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him clo
It was a good thing Leo’s shower was so roomy, it easily fit three. Amberleigh had imagined this moment so many fucking times in her head. And she intended to make this reality so much fucking better than the fantasy which had long lived only in her imagination.She turned on the water, nearly scalding, and watched the steam fog up the glass. She ran a hand across the steamed up mirror. Her loyal servants, waited behind her, already hard, just awaiting their queen’s command.She grabbed two natural sponges from the basket on the counter and turned to them. Leo was on her left and Grayson on her right, close but their naked bodies not touching one another. While it would be hot and check another box of hers off altogether, she would not ask either of them to kiss or touch each other. She loved and respected them both enough to know Grayson wouldn’t like being with Leo in that way. If it happened naturally, then so be it. But there was nothing sexy or romantic about being forced.“Wash
Amberleigh gave Grayson a moment to think over her proposal. To make his decision. The billionaire loosened his tie like it was choking him. Beside her Leo rolled onto his side and began to run a finger up and down Amber’s bare back. He was clearly ready to go another round. And so was she. But the question remained, would Grayson be joining them?“I don’t like Leo in that way. I’m straight,” he spoke finally.Amber smiled, “It’s not your job to pleasure him or each other. Unless of course you boys want too. But it’s both of your jobs to pleasure me. You don’t have to do anything you’re uncomfortable with.”Leo began to kiss her neck, “I’ll keep my hands to myself G-Man. Except of course when it comes to her.”He ran his tongue up the side of her neck. Amber shivered and awaited the billionaire’s decision. She wasn’t going to pressure him into anything he wasn’t ready for. Grayson took a deep breath.She bit her lip, “Or you can just watch if you would like. Feel free to join in if yo
Amberleigh vowed Grayson to silence over the sex of their child. She wanted to figure out a cute way to reveal to Leo it was a munchkinette she was carrying. But she wasn’t about to go out and have one of those big gender reveal parties. Those things often ended in fails. While entertaining to fucking watch on viral videos, Amber didn’t intend to try some big display to reveal her child didn’t have a penis.Since Amber wasn’t quite ready to reveal it to her father yet either, it gave her and Grayson no real chance to talk about it. Giovanni had appeared in the basement soon after the ultrasound had ended. She would have to catch Grayson in the panic room at some point to discuss his feelings over having a daughter.Amber was still trying to take it in. She wanted baby girl to only get the best parts of herself and Grayson. And she sure as fuck didn’t want her daughter treated like a pretty, dress up doll. Her baby would be afforded all the same opportunities a boy born to Grayson God
Giovanni opened the rear door instead.“Ladies first,” said Grayson.They loaded into the vehicle and made the trek to the wrong side of the tracks. On the ride, Giovanni and Amber chatted about the baby and her intentions to graduate high school. Her father told her he was proud of her and again suggested Giovanni as a great name for his grandchild. He also got the usually introverted billionaire to join in the conversation and get Amber riled up over suggesting naming their child Adam Milton or Agatha Louise. No fucking way was that going to happen to her baby.Doc personally let them in the backdoor. After pleasant greetings, Amber couldn’t help but tease a bit.“I thought you had people for this doc.”He smiled, “My usual doorman now has a girlfriend. One of which he won’t be seeing outside of school hours for a while if he’s not home in the next twenty minutes.”Donny was a good kid. He would likely be home by curfew. Amber wouldn’t mind getting the chance to say hello to him ton
Giovanni Costa, AKA Amberleigh's father, didn’t let her down. His reply was swift, I’m on my way figila. I can be there in twenty minutes. Now all that was left to do was to try and control the bleeding in Grayson’s arm and wait.Thankfully, his selfish and useless wife had retreated to her room still crying about her bloody clothes. No doubt she’d seek out poor Helga and have the woman try and scrub the stains out. Just when Amber had assumed she couldn’t hate Courtney Van Cunt more, the evil woman had outdone herself. She really was the ice queen with no heart nestled beneath her fake tits.Amber only left Grayson’s side long enough to wash her hands and then collect a few things. While she completed that task, she tried not to dwell on a troubling thought. The bathroom floor had been dry indicating Grayson hadn’t made it into the shower yet. He hadn’t slipped on water on the floor. The rug was an anti-slip rug, so it was possible he had actually displaced it while he was falling an
Amberleigh decided to eat her feelings so she dug that half gallon of moose tracks ice cream from the freezer and grabbed a spoon. She planted herself at the island counter and debated checking in with Leo. She hadn’t heard from him in a while but didn’t want to come off as one of those suffocating fiancée. But Leo probably would have communicated by now if blood had been shed or he needed bailed out of jail.Before she knew it, Amber had eaten half the fucking container of ice cream as she thought about the life choices which had brought her here. She also mulled over the future and co-parenting with a man who had a lot of anger and unspoken resentment towards her.She understood where Grayson was coming from. He was hurt and angry over a ton of shit he’d just let bottle up rather than ever deal with. The murder of his brother, which he hadn’t really ever got over Adam’s death to began with. His disease, like staring down the barrel of a gun he couldn’t escape from. And seeing Amber
Life was good despite all the darkness they were facing. Amberleigh was trying to bask in the good moments, even when they seemed few and far between. She used them to carry her through the dark ones. And there were dark times a plenty as Grayson struggled with his anger and depression. As they were all forced to coexist with a murderous cunt. As Amber’s hormones were fucked and she found herself extra sensitive. Even sappy commercials often made her cry.She had much to be thankful for though. Like her pregnancy progressing well, reaching her fifteenth week with no complications, and finally not having to pee every fucking five minutes! And most of all Leo. That man was a fucking godsend. Leo would kiss her belly every night and sing to the baby. Amber was glad that it was unlikely the baby could hear yet, but she didn’t tell Leo that. She found his new nightly ritual sweet.But Amber shouldn’t have expected anything less from him. Leo put his whole heart into the things he cared abo
Amberleigh and Leo came up with a plan to keep Grayson’s ass out of the bars in the bad part of town and home every night by sundown. They simply started showing up at Godwin HQ every work day around five p.m. They’d hang in Grayson’s office until he decided to leave and personally escort him back to the penthouse. Amber usually annoyed the fuck out of the billionaire to the point they were in the car by seven at the latest.Leo often took the opportunity to read a book or look up new recipes to try at home. While Amber napped on the couch in G-Man’s posh office, or watched videos on the net, or raided the employee break room for snacks. It was usually her laughing at funny videos or chewing loudly which got Grayson to throw the towel in for the day and head home. He sure as fuck wasn’t happy about it.He even tried to get the pair of them banned from the building. That laughable attempt got Leo to call up Viola. She came on down to the office and scolded her son in person. She sided
