The Billionaire’s Surprise Heir: A Second Chance, Secret Baby Romance

by Tara Brent

  Nico is keen on her friend and I can see him breaking her heart when he leaves. It’s not the night to think of such problems. This night is for enjoying a certain redhead's company.

  Tiffany still knows nothing about me, so being with her means I can’t bid on anything in the charity auction. If she sees me spending money like it means nothing, it might frighten her away again. I excuse myself to go and speak to one of my associates to inform them to bid on certain items on my behalf. This should keep Mia happy, or she’ll be sulking if I don’t force the price up on these exclusive items.

  “So, what’s the cause of this event?” Tiffany asks me when I return with her to my table.

  “Mia supports a number of charities. This one is to raise funds for a homeless charity. She has one day a month when she closes down the restaurant to the public, and serves the homeless people with her best dishes. It can be quite an experience, I’ve been a few times.”

  “That’s amazing. I had no idea Mia had such a soft side. She seems so dynamic, and to be frank, pretty ruthless.” Tiffany has become quite impressed with my sister-in-law. "So, what do you do these days? I gather you stayed in computing?"

  I'm a little caught off and don’t know how to answer her. Taking a deep breath I attempt to build-up a believable story.

  “More or less, you know me, I like to dabble in many things,” I tell her, trying to give nothing away.

  Luckily she doesn't pursue the topic any further. The end of the evening comes all too soon. Back at the hotel with Nico, I am forced to listen to him droning on about how he’s fallen in love.

  “I know it sounds crazy," he says clearly lovestruck. “I’ve only just met her, but this woman has stolen my heart, Calvin. Is it true that you can fall in love at first sight, do you think?”

  Whilst I don’t tell him of my love for Tiffany, I agree with him and listen to his drunken singing of painful love songs. Painful, that is, for my ears.

  Chapter 14

  Classy Cruising

  “Oh my goodness, Ali, did you arrange this?” I gasp as I stand in front of a huge yacht that we're about to board to meet our partners for a dinner date. “We can’t afford this, are you out of your mind?”

  “Nope, I didn’t arrange it, and wow, this is amazing.” She stands still to admire the view from the marina. “Nico insisted on doing all the arrangements and we’re not paying, so stop fretting. All you do these days is worry.”

  “Pardon me for breathing, but I don’t think we belong in a place like this, Ali. We’re probably underdressed. Even though we’ve both got new glamorous dresses for the occasion. Is this one of those classy cruises where you only get one tiny pea on your plate?”

  “What are you talking about, girl?” Ali grabs a hold of my hand. “You’re going to be fine. Everything’s good, and I don’t think you’ll feel like eating much anyway.”

  I don’t argue with her because I don’t feel like eating at all. I only agreed to come on this foursome because Ali has fallen big time for Nico. Well, that’s what I keep telling myself, but deep down I’m excited to be in Calvin's company again. In fact, I feel quite guilty that I’m using Ali as an excuse. I tell her that I’m here on protest, but it's a big fat lie.

  Ali starts waving over at Nico who’s standing on the yacht watching out for her. We walk up the gangway to enter the deck of the boat, or ship, or whatever. I have no idea but it’s a seriously classy venue.

  Ali runs up the gangway to meet Nico with great enthusiasm. When they meet, they hug each other as if they’ve been apart for far too long, even though it was only yesterday. Calvin walks over to join us but we remain at a distance as we greet one another. From that moment on, there is no separating Ali and Nico. Either their lips are locked together, or they're holding hands with limbs wrapped around one another. They won't part for anyone. How they manage to find so much to say to each other is quite beyond me. They chat constantly, but only to each other. Not once do either of them acknowledge they are in our company.

  We dine at a large table on one of the higher decks. I assume there are other decks with other customers also dining, but we have this one to ourselves. The boat begins to move and we cruise along the bay. It’s all very romantic and there’s even music playing softly in the background.

  “I see that you’re picking at your food again,” Calvin says to me, though he’s smiling.

  “I’m sorry, this food is wonderful but I feel awkward,” I tell him the truth. I don’t want to lie to him ever again.

  “Look, what’s past is past. You must put that incident behind you,” he tells me. “Let’s enjoy this evening. Nico has gone to great troubles to set it all up.”

  “I can see, he must want to impress Ali with an expensive cruise and the amazing food. Goodness knows how much this cruise must be costing him,” I say, a little overawed by our surroundings.

  Calvin laughs at me and I stare back at him a little confused.

  “What?” I ask him.

  “We could end up doing the washing up for a week if he doesn’t pay the bill, don’t you think?”

  “Are you making fun of me?”

  He takes a hold of my hand in the middle of his two large palms and my stomach churns with excitement. Does he really forgive me for my lies? I hope so because I’m beginning to feel if I made the wrong decision all those years ago. Should I have told him?

  There’s Hope Yet

  I finally manage to make physical contact with Tiffany, even if it was only to hold her hand. She made me laugh at something she said but at the same time, she looked as if I’d insulted her. So far this evening she's kept her distance from me, but now I have her hand in mine I can feel her begin to relax.

  “Let’s live for the moment,” I say to her. “Look at the romance of the city lights as we cruise past them. It's a warm evening and we're in good company. What more could we want right now?”

  Now she laughs at me.

  “By good company, I don’t mean those, two,” I explain to her as my brother and his new girlfriend have ignored us for most of the evening. “I mean us, we have each other.”

  “Hey, Calvin, look!” Nico calls out to me. “I told you I’d get to see Alcatraz in the dark. I asked Dennis to pass by this way so we could see it from a distance.”

  “Come on, let’s go up to the top deck and take in the view,” Nico suggests, running hand in hand up the steps with Ali.

  Nico’s suggestion is fraught with problems for me. Neither of our partners this evening are aware that I own this boat. They might start to ask difficult questions if we wander around the boat. The last thing I want right now is to scare Tiffany away again. This time, I’d like to hold on to her. The setting though is quite romantic. Maybe she’ll drop her guard and stay the night. Then, we can start where we left off a few weeks ago. In a way, I suppose I’m the one doing the lying now. I don’t know how to explain my wealth to this woman. She makes me feel uncertain all the time.

  “Oh, you never mentioned we’d get to see the rock,” Ali says as Nico wraps his arms around her.

  Nico looks like he’s got it real bad. Mind you, I’m not one to speak, am I? My feelings for Tiffany are equally as intense if only I could bring myself to tell her. I turn to watch Tiffany as the sea breeze catches her hair. That hair is the reason I fell for her in the first place, and I’ve been addicted to red hair ever since. She looks stunning looking out at the island as we cruise by it. I want to grab her and kiss her, but I hold myself back.

  “Oh, look, over there you can see some seals or something. Look, on the rocks,” Tiffany cries out, pointing frantically at the sea lions caught in the lights.

  “Callum would love this, he loves animals,” she says without thinking.

  Her eyes swiftly move over to glance at me.

  “Is Callum your boy’s name?” I ask out of curiosity.

  “Yes, but please, Calvin, let’s not talk about that tonight,” she pleads.

  “That’s fine. Though I c
ould do with knowing if his dad has a presence in your life?” I dare to ask, though I didn’t mean to be quite so blunt.

  “No, he’s never met his dad. Anyway, I agree with you, let’s enjoy this evening. My pa always said, 'Live for the now, not yesterday or tomorrow.' That’s what I’d like to do tonight.”

  “Yes, let's do that. It's a beautiful evening and we’re going on to look at the bridge next. It's spectacular close up.”

  “I’ve never been on a cruise in the bay, would you believe,” she laughs, once again looking over at the island as we start to leave it behind.

  “Sounds like your pa was a wise man,” I say in response to her quoting him. “I've just lost my father. That’s why I left the city for a while.”

  “Oh!” She looks at me with genuine concern. “I know what that feels like and I’m sorry for your loss. It’s terrible to lose someone you love.”

  A lump always develops in my throat when I recall the loss of my father. But her lost look encourages me to take her in my arms and protect her. We’re soon kissing as we stand on the deck with the stars above our heads.

  We have something in common. We’ve both lost our fathers.

  For now, though, I relish in the softness of my lips on hers. She responds to my desires and for that I’m thankful. Perhaps there is hope for us yet.

  Chapter 15

  We Can Sleep in this Bed?

  “Come on Tiffy, we’re off for a swim,” Ali shouts over to me.

  “No way, we can’t swim in there in the dark!” I shout back. “We’ll either freeze or drown!”

  “I think she means in the pool,” Calvin informs me, making me feel a wee bit of a fool.

  “Oh! This boat has a pool? Crap!”

  “Come on, I’ll show you,” he says, leading me away hand in hand.

  By the time we get there, Ali and Nico are already in the pool. It's kind of obvious that they're both naked, completely unabashed by our presence. I’m not a prude, but there’s no way I’m swimming naked on a boat with other people milling around.

  “Come on in, Tiffy, the water's amazing. It's even got bubbles,” Ali calls over to me just before she gets a dunking from Nico.

  “I...I can’t do that,” I stutter, feeling a bit embarrassed. “My ass is staying in my pants,” I add in my attempt to look braver.

  “Aww, come on, Tiffany, Ali’s seen it all, I’ve seen it all, and I’ll hide you from Nico if that helps,” Calvin tries to talk me into it.

  “I suppose you’re right, but...what if someone catches us?”

  “Like who, Donald Duck in the middle of the bay?”

  “Smartypants,” I say, giving him a gentle shove at his teasing. “The other guests might happen to want a swim too. I doubt they’ll appreciate us being bare ass naked.”

  “Ah, there are no other guests. Nico spared no expense. He hired the boat for the evening,” Calvin informs me.

  “What?” I’m shocked. “Cowboys must earn a lot more than nurses, that’s for sure.”

  “I thought we were living for the now. So come on, let’s get in,” he encourages me passing me a thick luxurious towel that was on one of the lounging chairs surrounding the pool.

  I must look a sight as I’m attempting to remove my lacy cocktail gown while trying to hold a towel to strategically hide my modesty. When I look up I see Calvin is already naked. As if acting under their own free will, my eyes wander down to his groin region. As my sight lingers about his dark pubes, I'm impressed with his thick shaft that hangs there. I'm sure his manhood is inviting me over to caress it. Hrmph! As I clear my throat, a shudder ripples through my body and right down between my legs, making my pussy hot and moist. Darn that good looking Italian man!

  “I’ll hold the towel while you undress," He says, showing no embarrassment. "I never rated you as shy, but come on, I’m keen to get in there.”

  With my face blushing, I undress and take the towel from him. He laughs and goes to jump in the shimmering aqua blue water. It looks very inviting with underwater lighting and steam rising in the cool night air. Hell, I want in there too because I’m freezing my bits off out here. Sitting on the edge I slip in while everyone’s clearing the water from their eyes from Calvin’s big entrance.

  Oh my, this pool is amazing. I’ve ever had the pleasure to swim around on a luxury boat. The water feels so soft on my skin and I start to relax as I do a little swim. Calvin is soon by my side catching up with me, with his much more powerful strokes.

  “You like it?” He laughs as he comes up next to me, skin touching upon skin.

  “I have no idea how much this must cost, but it’s amazing,” I say.

  He ignores my remark and splashes water in my face. Within moments we’re playing like big kids splashing each other. The night sky twinkles above us, and the lights flicker inland. Yet, here we are in the middle of the bay, swimming in a luxury boat and completely naked. I love it!

  Needless to say that we’re soon chasing each other around. When Calvin catches me, we're soon in each other’s embrace. It seems so natural that it leads to many kisses and our wet naked skin touches every time we come together. I desire this man so much that I’m bursting with a burning passion. If he decided to take me, right here and now, I'd let him. Fuck, to whoever might be watching!

  My shyness soon disappears as we all four engage in silly water games. It might be a little immature but it's got to be the most fun I’ve had in years. We're like teenagers, all over again. By the time we climb out, I’m no longer concerned about showing my nakedness. My body isn’t all that bad so what the hell! Mind you it’s not long before I’m shivering as the night air brings out the goosebumps on my skin. My nipples are rock hard and protrude rigid and proud. Calvin senses my discomfort and drapes a huge soft towel over both of us. It's magical as we warm up with each other’s body heat.

  “Come on, I’ll show you somewhere warmer where you can dry off,” he says, taking me by the hand and leading me to a lower deck. This boat is even larger than I first thought. The corridors are huge with numerous doors. Where do they all go? We stop at what might the front of the boat, who knows? He scoops me up and presses a button on the wall. A door slides open and he enters a huge, glamorous bedroom.

  “Goodness!" I yell, still squeaking from being carried. "This is about three times larger than my bedroom, and it’s on a boat!” I say, unable to hide the awe in my voice. “Look at the size of that bed!”

  No sooner have I said those words and he places me downs onto the luxurious soft bed.

  “We can’t lay on it, Calvin,” I laugh. “We’ll wet it and it might be made up for some guests on the next cruise.

  “No, I’ve told you already, the only guests on this boat are the four of us. We can stay all night if we want to,” he tells me.

  “You’re joking!” I’m shocked once again. The thought of sleeping on a huge bed, on a luxury boat, excites me like a kid at Christmas. “We can sleep in this bed?” I ask, to double-check.

  “Yes, or I can find a different bed if you prefer?”

  “Oh no! This one's just fine,” I say. Emboldened by my daring naked swim, I make the first move. I take his face in both my hands and bring it down to mine as he leans over me. Our lips meet I am feeling so happy right now. All I want to do is to make love with this handsome Italian man.

  Groan of Anticipation

  I reach out and remove the towel around us, throwing it to the floor. Tiffany's completely naked and I take in her form with relish. She’s irresistible and I press my lips firmly on hers. My redhead melts into my hands as our tongues entwine. I hear myself groan in anticipation of what’s to come.

  My hands wander over her sensitive bare breasts, pausing only to take one of her stiff nubs between my fingers to rub it. That causes her to quiver and a little moan escapes her lips. Moving real slow I tease my fingertips over her flat tummy. She's soft and warm and I make my way down to the v-shape between her damp, soft legs. I recall her short bush of ginger hair
from other times. Yet, here we are, together again. Then I clamp my palm over her mound.

  “Hmm,” I moan as we kiss. She widens her legs to welcome my attention. In no time my fingers burrow between the folds of her wet pussy. She's sticky with wet sexual juices and my fingers slip into her warm and wet cavity. Pecking her soft breasts with small kisses, I suckle one of her nipples greedily in my mouth.

  The sexual heat burning inside of me leaps higher as she moves her hand down between our naked bodies. Her palm encircles my throbbing cock. For a moment I’m forced to stop my probing between her legs, or I may lose control. After waiting so long for this to happen, I didn’t want the moment spoiled through my lack of self-control.

  Tiffany is having none of it. She bucks her hips up and down begging for the return of my fingers. Squeezing her pussy, she's showing me exactly what she desires. Taking the hint, I slip between her legs to position my throbbing dick close to her pussy. The top of my body is still upright while I get into position, and I catch her looking at my erection, protruding out like a stiff pole. She turns her gaze to me and I see the longing in her eyes. She's as greedy as me for sex and want’s me as much as I want her. Leaning back down, my course hairy chest mashes with her soft breasts. I take her chin in my hand and lick her delicious lips, I want to eat up every part of this beautiful woman.

  With her hand already encircling my cock, she guides me into her wetness. As our juices mingle, I smell the sexual aroma and close my eyes in anticipation.

  “Yes, yes,” she whispers in my ear as our faces press cheek to cheek.

  Slowly I slide my erection deep inside of her until I can go no further. The look on her face is a picture of pure lust as she grinds her hips up on my cock. Encouraged by her receptiveness I start thrusting in and out of her. As I come out I pull all the way back, leaving the tip of my dick in her pussy folds. Then, I plunge fully to return deep inside of her. Her sticky wetness makes our fucking frictionless as I glide up and down.
