Sin With Me

“Congratulations on your engagement and child.” Drew paused as he shut off the machine, “Also… tell Tilly I need to speak to her.”
“Thank you and of course.”
Benjamin wiped the gel off her belly and threw the towel in the trash. He helped her up as Drew came back with five copies in his hand. “I made extras, in case you wanted to send one to Colton. I know Tilly will also want her copy, too.”
“Thank you, Drew.” Benjamin sighed, “I don’t know why you let Tilly use you like she does.”
Drew’s eyes widened, “No! We’re just… friends.”
“Of course you are.” Benjamin winked, grinning at the flustered doctor. He knew Tilly and Drew were messing around… more than usual now.
“Have a good day.” Drew muttered as he exited the room.
Benjamin curled his lips and his gaze darkened as he stood between Chloe’s legs. He grabbed the back of her thighs and pulled her to the edge of the table. “So, you ready to live out your fantasy, babe?”
“What if someone walks in?” Chloe bit her lip as he gently pushed her back on the table.
“Then, all they would see is my bare ass as I make love to my future wife.”
“Benjamin—”
Benjamin wrapped her legs around his waist and pressed his hardened member into her. She covered her mouth to suppress a moan, but he shook his head. “No. I want to hear every moan come out of that sexy mouth, babe.”
Just as he leaned down to capture her lips, they heard a gasp behind them. “Oh. My. God.”
Benjamin turned to see the flushed nurse cover her eyes. “I’m so sorry—”
“It’s okay, we were just leaving. Isn’t that right, Princess?” Benjamin smirked down to Chloe as she blushed.
“I—I…” Chloe stuttered.
Benjamin leaned down and whispered, “Just wait until I get you home, Princess.”
“I can’t wait to see what you have in store for me, Mr. Grayson.”

Seven Months Later
Chloe held her stomach and breathed out, “Fuck! Benjamin, wake up.”
“Go back to sleep, baby.” Benjamin muttered.
“Wake the fuck up. The baby… it’s time.”
Benjamin shot up in bed and widened his eyes. “Now?”
“No, it’s a test.” Chloe smacked his head and growled, “Of course now, dummy. We’ve got to get to the hospital.”
“Shit. Just relax, baby… deep breaths.”
“Easy for you to say. You don’t have a baby screaming to get out.” She hissed and grabbed her overnight bag.
Benjamin was in a state of shock as he frantically scrambled to get dressed. Chloe was waiting impatiently at the front door as he grabbed the keys. Benjamin sped down the road with his flashers on swerving through-traffic. He pulled into the hospital and parked at the emergency exit and slammed on the brakes as he parked the car.
“God, it hurts.” Chloe whimpered as Benjamin helped her out of the car. He picked her up gently and carried her inside. He placed her into a wheelchair and rolled her to the front desk.
“I need to see Dr. Alvarez.”
“If you’ll just fill…”
“Fuck you. She’s about to…”
“Nurse, I’ll take it from here.” Dr. Alvarez said, “Come on, let’s get you into a room.”
Benjamin rolled her into a room and sighed, “Was she fucking serious? I’ve been here a million times.”
“Sorry about her. She’s new.” Dr. Alvarez said as he hooked an IV to Chloe. He motioned for a young nurse to come forward, “Check her vitals and how far she’s dilated. I’ve got to grab Chloe’s chart.”
The nurse hummed as she checked Chloe’s vitals and her to see how close she was. She widened her eyes and yelled, “Dr. Alvarez, the baby is coming. Now.”
Chloe squeezed Benjamin’s hand, making him wince. He brushed the hair out of her face and whispered, “You’re doing so good. Deep breaths. In and out.”
“Push, Chloe.” Dr. Alvarez said as his team worked on delivering our child. Chloe’s screams could be heard throughout the entire hospital as she pushed.
“Benjamin,” she whimpered, “I can’t…”
“Look at me, baby. You can do this… be my strong girl. You can do it.”
“One more push, Chloe. I can see the head.” Dr. Alvarez said.
“Ahhh… shit.” Chloe screamed, pushing one final time.
Dr. Alvarez smiled as he took the baby in his hands as the nurse wrapped it in a blanket. “Congratulations! It’s a boy. Would you like to cut the cord, Benjamin?”
“Yes.” Benjamin said taking the scissors from him and cut the cord.
Dr. Alvarez handed the baby to Benjamin and said, “I’ll give you guys a moment before we take him and get him cleaned up for you. Name?”
Chloe whispered, “Trey Colton Grayson.”
Benjamin cupped Chloe’s face and kissed her, “I love you, Chloe… love you to the moon and back.”
Chloe whispered and closed her eyes, letting exhaustion take over. “I love you, too… Benjamin.”
Even through all the darkness and sadness Benjamin and Chloe endured, they still found their way back to the light. A lost soul found his way back to the light. Leading him back to her… his beautiful Princess.
With Chloe’s father behind bars awaiting his death, they can finally move on and start their lives in peace. Justice is being served to the those Chloes father hurt. Everything is perfect… just the way it should be.
The End
They faced their demons and moved forward, but Colton and Jenna’s battle is just beginning. Turn the page to read a preview of Paying The Price:

Paying the price
By
C. Davis
Description
Colton-
Do you think there's hope for someone who's done bad things in his past life?
I've committed crimes.
Harmed my family.
Hurt the only woman that stood by my side... the only woman who loved me.
I ruined her... ruined us.
Can I find redemption and get her back?
Find my way back and be the man I used to be?
I did the crime... now I'm paying the price.
It won't be easy, but I'm going to win back her trust.
Jenna-
What do you do when the man you love leaves you?
I'm lost... don't know what to do.
Do I wait for him, or move on with my life?
My heart aches for him.
I'm bleeding out.
Every time I think I can move on, he shows his face.
He's in my dreams. Every damn time I close my eyes.
And each time I fall, there's another man who catches me.
A man who isn't the one who holds the key to my heart.
Can I let go of my past and let him in?
Or... was I doomed from the start?
Letters To Jenna
_______________
Dear Jenna,
I know you don't want to talk to me... to see me, and I don't blame you. You gave me everything and I just threw it away. Hurting you was the last thing I wanted to do. It kills me to know you're hurting because of me. I think about you every hour of every day. I miss you. I miss your touch... your kisses. Most of all, I miss holding you in my arms. I know I messed up. I pray that you come see me every morning and night. You might now believe me, but I didn't kill that woman. Hell, I didn't even know that my mother's sister was dead. However, I did harm my sister. I know you hate me, but I still love you so much. I'm a bad person, baby. I've committed crimes. Hurt my family. Hurt the only woman who stood by my side... the only woman who loved me. I have no excuses for the things I've done, but you have to understand... I did it to protect you. I couldn't let my father hurt you, not after what you've been through. It's been a long road for me, but I'm slowly getting there. I hop
e you're doing well, baby. Any day now, my father should be facing his Judgement Day. My sister and Benjamin have come to see me once every few weeks. I'm working on setting things right with my sister. She's slowly finding it in her heart to forgive me. I don't deserve her forgiveness, but she's giving it to me. Benjamin wasn't so forgiving, but as long as Chloe is happy... he's happy. Here, I sit in my cell and I'm looking at your picture. I kiss it every night before I go to sleep... just, so I can feel close to you. I'm sorry, baby. I'm sorry I didn't come clean and tell you the truth. Most of all, I'm sorry I let you down. Please, find it in your heart to forgive me. I just wanted to write this letter to you to tell you something. Not a day goes by that my heart doesn't ache for you. Visiting day is on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Chloe and Benjamin are coming to see me. I really hope to see you come with them. It would be nice to see you... would love to see you.
P.S. I love you, Jenna.
Love,
Colton
Chapter 1-The Aftermath
____________________
Jenna
I hated Colton... hated the fact he lied to me. I thought we were best friends... lovers. I guess not. I was stupid to think he would actually return the feeling. I thought he loved me. It's been four months since he was hauled off to prison. Four long months of crying over the man I was still in love with. Four long months of knowing I was pregnant with Colton Davenport's child.
“Jenna, you need to eat something.” Chloe said, taking a seat next to me. Benjamin and Chloe have been great. They always try to get me to come with them to visit Colton, but I can't. I can't face him after everything that's happened.
“Chloe, I already ate this morning.” I replied, rubbing my belly.
“Jenna, Chloe and I are going to visit Colton this Thursday. We would like it if you came with us. He misses you.”
I shook my head, “I can't. I have a doctor's appointment.”
“I think you should tell him about the baby.” Benjamin said, a small frown forming on his face.
“No, he doesn't deserve to know about his child.”
Benjamin reached into his jacket and pulled out an envelope, “Here, this is for you.”
“What is this?” I asked.
“Please, just read it... for me.” Chloe said, placing her hand over my hand.
I rubbed my belly and sighed, “Fine. I'll do it for you, since you've helped me through everything.”
I held the letter in my hand and unfolded it. Taking a deep breath, I began to read.
Dear Jenna,
I know you don't want to talk to me... to see me, and I don't blame you. You gave me everything and I just threw it away. Hurting you was the last thing I wanted to do.

Love,
Colton
“Why... why do you do this to me, Colton?” I whispered, tears streaming down my face.
I wiped my face and sighed. I didn't know if I could force myself to face the man I hated and loved. I couldn't let him know I was pregnant with his child. I just don't see how Chloe could be so forgiving. Not after all Colton had done to her.
Benjamin placed his hand on my shoulder, “Jenna, let me and Chloe take you home.”
“I can't go back there... not right now.”
“Jenna... you need to rest.”
“You don't understand... there are too many memories of him there.”
My chest tightened, making it hard to breathe. If I went back to my house, I'd break completely. Everything in that damned house reminded me of Colton. His scent still lingered. My pillow still had the faint smell of his cologne. I couldn't bring myself to wash the pillowcase. I was angry. So pissed at myself for getting involved with him!
“Ow.” I held onto the table to keep from falling. Benjamin was quick to steady me and help me in a chair.
“What's wrong?” He asked.
“I'm fine. I'm just tired.” I lied.
“Are you...”
“Yes!” I hissed, “I wish everyone would just leave me alone. I... need some time alone.”
“You'll call me or Chloe if you need us?”
I sighed, “Yes. I promise you I'll be fine.”

I stepped up to the doors of the church and let out a breath. It had been months since I stepped foot in here. I couldn't knowing Colton was gone. I pushed through the doors, taking a deep breath. It looked the same as I remembered it. Only one thing was different... Colton wasn't here. I let out a choked sob as I looked up to the wall. His picture was there... haunting me. It already haunted my dreams, but seeing it stare back to me made me realize. I was truly alone. I lost my best friend... the man I loved and hated.
“Miss Bradley?” I heard a voice call to me.
I whispered to the picture, pretending it was him. “I hate that I love you, Colton Davenport. I hate you did this... most of all, I loathe you because you used me. You used my heart and played it like a fiddle.”
“Are you okay, Miss Bradley?”
“No.”
“Do I need to call someone for you?”
“I'm sorry, I shouldn't have come.” I turned and ran away from the church. Everything was crashing down. Every emotion. Each time I spent with the sexy bastard. All the times he held me in his arms. I ran to the edge of the church yard and sunk to my knees, “Please... God, what do I do? How do I move forward from this? Please, tell me... just give me a sign.”
“Jenna, are you okay?” Tommy, Jeff's cousin, asked as he helped me to my feet.
I blushed as his rough hands reached under my arms, helping me up. “Tommy, what are you doing out here?”
“I heard you crying and thought someone was hurting you.” Tommy rubbed the back of his neck nervously.
“I'm okay... just... I'm okay.”
“You're not okay. I can see the pain in your eyes, sweetheart.”
“You're right.” I pursed my lips, “I'm a fucking wreck.”
“Come on, Jenna. Let me take you to get something to eat... take your mind off Colton.”
Chapter 2-Regret
______________
Colton
If I could take everything back, I would. The guilt was eating me up inside. I wished I could go back in time and do it over again. I would be stronger… fight back. Stand up to my father and protect the innocent involved. Most importantly, I would come clean with Jenna.
I’m so very sorry I disappointed you.
My father is awaiting his fate, while I’m serving a three-year term. The cops offered me a deal. If I testified against my father, I would only be here a few years. It could’ve been so much worse for me. I was lucky enough to get a good cell mate. My mate, Javier, was serving for a hacking charge. He didn’t go into detail, but said he hacked into the FBI’s system. Long story short, he got caught.
I laid on the bottom bunk, tracing Jenna’s picture. I missed her so much it hurt. I kissed the picture and whispered, “I love you, Jenna. I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me.”
