Daddy's Best Friend Secret (Daddies and Babies Book 2)

by Lauren Wood

  I pushed into her over and over again, and she began to moan against me. That was my cue to absolutely ravage her. I thrusted like a man, and my lips wrapped back around one breast while I tweaked the other one with my fingers.

  It didn’t take long for her to come again, and a few pumps later, I was following after her.

  Clara

  I stretched, as I woke up, a yawn leaving my lips. I’d slept better than I had in a long time. Usually, I could be quite the insomniac and wake up several times throughout the night, but that hadn’t been the case last night. I’d slept peacefully, and for me that was good. It usually meant that I was going to have a good day.

  My leg moved, and my eyes widened when I felt it intertwine with another leg. Who was that? Memories of the night before began to rush through my mind, and I felt my heartbeat speeding up erratically. Slowly, I turned around, and just like I’d suspected, Klaus was laying down beside me, snoring ever so lightly. My breaths became harsher, as I thought about what I had done.

  Klaus and I had slept together. How many times had I told Brendan, Shae, and other people that there was nothing going on between us? And then I’d given in and done exactly what all other women in my situation did. Slept with him because he’d promised a night of pleasure. And now where did that leave me? As just another of his conquests?

  He’d made sure to get it out of me how much I liked him, but he’d never said that he felt the same way. Had Klaus just slept with me because I was a challenge to him? Maybe, that was why he’d said that all he needed was one night. He, probably, didn’t want another night, and I was just the idiot to give in to him and believe… what… that something was different with him?

  And what was Brendan going to say? Oh, Brendan. I’d already cheated on him once with Klaus and then had lied to his face and told him that he had nothing to worry about. How was I supposed to even begin explaining this, and did I even have to? Hadn’t we sort of broken up, or were we just on a break?

  I didn’t know enough about relationships to make a guess, either way. But I did know that I didn’t want to be associated with a cheater. I was better than that. I’d always prided myself on my honest personality, and I needed to continue to do the same thing, now. I wasn’t going to become that person.

  Brendan and I may not always see eye to eye. And we may have had an argument, but it hadn’t been made clear where we stood. We could be together, or we could be broken up. But wherever we stood, he needed to know the truth. I knew that it was going to end our relationship, but I would rather we break up because he knows the truth rather than stay together because we were living a lie.

  No matter how much I tried to deny it and push it down, there was a part of me that was interested in Klaus, that wanted him. And, until I could figure all of that out, maybe it was best that I wasn’t in a relationship.

  I made my decision, in my mind. I was going to tell him the truth and then the relationship needed to be ended right there. Whatever we were, Shae and Klaus had been right. I didn’t feel a fraction of what I felt for Klaus, for Brendan. Brendan was my safe option, but what happened when I didn’t want to play it safe anymore? It wouldn’t be right of me to just string him along for the simple reason that I could.

  Brendan may not have been the match for me, but nobody deserved to be cheated on. It was so harsh, and I couldn’t believe that I was the one who had done it. I had no clue how he was going to react once he found out the truth.

  My eyes glanced back at Klaus. He looked so peaceful when he was sleeping. My hand caressed his cheek, and he moved, slightly, before his snores continued. Why did he have to be the womanizer that everyone knew him as? Why couldn’t he be one of the good guys? It didn’t matter how much I liked him. I wasn’t going to be with somebody who used a woman as a toy just because he could.

  Being single was going to give me the opportunity to find out more about myself and find out what I really wanted from a man. I was determined not to jump into a relationship with anyone else.

  I was careful not to move the bed as I got out of it. I didn’t know what Klaus was going to say if he woke up while I was leaving. But I had a feeling that it wouldn’t be as easy for me to depart if he knew where I was going. He’d made it obvious on several occasions how much he disliked my boyfriend. Or, ex-boyfriend. as I needed to start calling him.

  I successfully got out of bed and pulled on the clothes that I’d worn the day before. I’d debated just grabbing some of Klaus’ clothes, but that didn’t seem like the best idea. Brendan would probably bust an artery, and I didn’t want that to happen.

  Once I got into my car, it took me a while to remember where Brendan’s apartment was. He’d recently moved so that he could be closer to me, knowing I was switching schools. Of course, he hadn’t known that I was going to be living with Klaus. I scrolled through our past messages together and was glad when I was able to find his address. Only an hour away.

  The drive didn’t feel nearly as long as it was, although I was sure that was because my mind was occupied the entire time with thoughts of Klaus and Brendan. I would be so much happier when this was all over and done with, and I no longer had anything to worry about.

  I got out of the car and walked to his apartment door before knocking on it. It wasn’t a long wait before the door opened, and Brendan was standing behind it. His eyes looked over me before he widened the door, inviting me inside. His hair was mussy, and he had on his glasses. He hadn’t been awake for that long.

  “Clara,” he started. “I was wondering when you were going to apologize, so we could end this little feud we were having and continue dating. I’d like to put the past in the past, and assuming that you’re here, I suppose you’re ready to act like a grown up and do the same.” He offered me a smile.

  My eyes widened. Had I really just heard what I thought I heard? Had Shae been right the entire time every time that she said there was something off about Brendan? He still didn’t know that I cheated and was just upset because of the living arrangements that my father made that had been against my will.

  Brendan really was a terrible person, and I had no idea what I’d seen in him and why I was constantly defending him. I never should have dated him. All he’d ever wanted was to turn me into his idea of ‘perfect,’ and when I didn’t fit it, he would punish me like what he was doing now. He hadn’t spoken to me in weeks, and it turned out it was all because he was waiting for me to cave in and give him what he wanted.

  Was this some kind of joke?

  “That’s not why I’m here,” I stated. I wished that I hadn’t come. Brendan didn’t deserve me. He never had.

  “Hm,” his finger trailed along his chin. “It’s not? Then, why are you here, Clara? I’m sure you’re not waiting on an apology from me, are you?”

  “No,” I answered. “I want to break up.”

  He was shocked, and he snorted. “You want to break up with me?”

  “Yes.”

  “For a mistake that you made?”

  “Because you’re unreasonable,” I retorted. “You’re blaming me because of something my father decided.”

  Brendan rolled his eyes. “You could have figured something else out.”

  I could feel my anger boiling, but I wasn’t going to let him get to me. “No, I couldn’t have. But I’m not here to fight,” I told him. “I just wanted to make it clear where we stood.” Maybe, I didn’t have to tell him about my indiscretions.

  “Breaking up has to be mutual,” He stood up and walked over to me.

  “No, it doesn’t.”

  “Clara, I’m not ready to lose you.” His eyes were shining. “We don’t end like this. We’re end-game.”

  He wasn’t going to let me leave. I let out a deep breath. “I cheated on you.”

  He took a step back. “What?”

  Brendan looked so betrayed, but I didn’t feel bad like I thought I would. Our relationship wasn’t going anywhere, and it was about time that we a
cknowledged that and moved on. Everyone had been right about us, from the beginning. We weren’t going to last.

  “I cheated,” I repeated.

  His eyes were like fire. “With who?”

  “I’m sure you know,” I stated. “And even if you don’t, why does it matter? It doesn’t change what I did.”

  “With who?!” Brendan screamed. It was the first time that I’d ever seen him become enraged. But I wasn’t scared of him. Still, he did deserve the truth.

  “Klaus.”

  “The guy you told me not to worry about?” He laughed. “What did you do, kiss him?”

  “Yes,” I told him the truth. “And we had sex.”

  “Get out.” Brendan was practically shaking with rage. “Get out! And never come back, Clara. This is going to bite you in the ass and when it does, I’m not going to be there for you. Leave.”

  He didn’t have to ask me twice.

  I stumbled out of his apartment and got back into my car. I buckled in and started it, and when I looked out the window, I could see Brendan still standing there with his arms crossed over his chest, obviously still frustrated. But he looked more angry than sad. Our eyes met, and he turned his back to me and slammed the door shut.

  It was the end of an era. And for some strange reason, I was happy to close the book on that chapter. It was time for me to move on.

  As I rode back to Klaus’ apartment, I felt better about everything. Brendan and I were officially done, and there was no longer anything that I needed to worry about. Maybe I should have taken Shae’s advice from the beginning and not gotten involved with Brendan. He didn’t care about me, not really. Instead, he cared more about what I represented.

  He wanted me to be perfect, but that wasn’t something that I could be.

  I finally got back. I’d been gone less than three hours, but I was surprised that Klaus’ car was still there. I would have thought that he would be gone because he didn’t want to deal with the aftermath of what had happened between the two of us. Klaus had made it obvious that he didn’t want to be involved in a relationship, and I knew that I wasn’t the exception. I was the rule.

  But he was still here.

  My heart was pounding when I stepped inside. Klaus was sitting in the chair in the foyer, and he stood up when he saw me enter.

  “Clara.” He said my name, and I could send the anger in his voice. He was upset with me, but then again, who wasn’t today? “Where the hell did you go?” He asked. His arms were crossed over his chest.

  There was no point in lying. “I went to see Brendan.”

  “And what?”

  “We broke up.”

  The anger seemed to completely evaporate. “You broke up?”

  “Yes.”

  “Because of me?”

  “Sort of.” I shrugged. “And it just wasn’t working out.”

  Klaus was no longer angry. In fact, he seemed content with it. “That’s good news.”

  “Why?”

  “Because, now I have you all to myself,” he told me. “And there’s nothing stopping us.”

  He came closer to me, and I put my hand up to stop him. “There is something stopping us.”

  He frowned. “What?”

  “I don’t want to do this with you.”

  Klaus looked confused. “Don’t want what to do with me?”

  “Klaus, just because I broke up with my boyfriend doesn’t mean you get a one-way ticket to pound town.”

  Did I like Klaus? Yes. And I wanted to be with him, but not the same way that he wanted to be with me. And I was done letting men walk all over me. I was going to be a new person, a better person, and the first step to doing that was not being with Klaus.

  He frowned like he was genuinely confused. “That’s not what I want?”

  “Don’t lie to me,” I snapped. “You just want into my pants. There’s no reason to give me false hope.”

  “You’re different, Clara. That isn’t the only thing that I want from you.”

  “Then what do you want?”

  “To be with you,” he admitted. “I don’t know how to do this, and maybe I’m doing it wrong, but I like you, Clara. I want you to be with me.” It was a confession of feelings if I’d ever heard one.

  “Do you mean that?” I asked him.

  “I’ve never meant anything more.”

  Before I could say anything else, Klaus was putting a hand on my chin. His lips moved down and pressed against mine. I could feel his member pressing against my upper thighs, and even though I’d just had him inside me last night, I found myself wanting him again. Last night, I experienced a pleasure that I’d never felt before.

  I pulled away and looked into his eyes. “Take me Klaus,” I whispered. “Make me yours.”

  “Any day, baby girl.”

  His lips were pressed back against mine, and he pushed me against the nearest wall. It was cold against my back, but I didn’t mind. He stripped both of us of our clothes and his lips were insistent on mine.

  Klaus bent down onto his knees and licked my womanhood before groaning. “Oh, baby girl, you’re already soaking wet for me. You don’t even need my mouth.” He stood back up and wrapped his arms around my legs, urging me to wrap my legs around his waist. And then he thrust himself deep inside of me.

  “Oh, Klaus!” I moaned out his name, as he began a steady pace of fucking me. This position was much deeper than the one we’d been in last night. I couldn’t stop the sounds from leaving my mouth while he fucked me, hitting a deeper spot every single time that he pumped into me.

  It wasn’t long before I was climaxing, shouting as he came with me, in me, making me truly his.

  Klaus

  The next morning, I was awakened by Clara’s lips wrapped around my dick. Morning wood wasn’t anything new to me, but someone actually working on it was. I was never with a woman in the morning to be afforded with the luxury of waking up to a blow job. It was like nothing else in the world.

  I’d assured Clara that she was different, and she was already making sure that I didn’t back out on what I said.

  My mouth involuntarily formed into an ‘oh’, and as I gasped with pleasure, I wondered how she even knew how to do this. She was a virgin when we slept together for the first night just two short nights ago. How would she know that blowjobs existed, let alone how to give one.

  Had Brendan asked for them? I wanted to punch a hole into the wall at the idea that he’d asked my baby girl to do such a thing. But something told me that wasn’t what had happened. He seemed too uptight to ask for such a thing.

  “Oh, baby girl,” I moaned, and she stopped just long enough to pop her head from out of the covers and give me a clever smile. Then, she was going back down on me, sucking and licking me like there was no tomorrow. It felt much better than it should have, especially when her cheeks hollowed out, and she sucked on me harder, taking more of me in.

  I didn’t stand a chance. My hips thrusted up, filling her mouth with my cock while my hands clung onto the sheets for dear life. “Fuck, Clara!” I groaned out, and with a few more sucks, I found myself climaxing. It was powerful, and I threw my head back against the pillow, desperately trying to keep myself together.

  But that was barely an option where she was involved. Clara had always had this way of making me fall apart. Maybe it was one of the reasons that I liked her so much.

  She seemed pleased with herself as she emerged from the covers and cuddled against me. “How was that?” she asked with a smile on her face.

  “Perfect,” I told her. “Better than perfect. How did you know how to do that?”

  “I watched a video while you were sleeping last night.” She smirked.

  I let out a breath. “You’re amazing.”

  “I was thinking the same thing about you.”

  “It’s time for me to give you some retribution, as a thank you.”

  I started to get on top of her, but Clara put a hand up to stop me. “That
’s really sweet of you,” she started. “But to be completely honest with you, I’m a little bit sore from your fucking. So maybe let’s postpone it until a later date?” She suggested.

  I kissed her. “If you say so, but I can’t be left waiting for a long time.”

  “Then, I’ll make sure that I get better in no time.”

  “You’d better.”

  We kissed again before I pulled away. “I need to take a shower.” I was feeling a bit sticky since someone had decided to engage me in an… activity… although I was far from complaining. It had felt better than anything else that I’d ever experienced, and that was saying something. I’d been with a lot of women, in my time, but that was all ending now.

  I only wanted one woman, and she continued to amaze me every single day.

  I kissed her again. “Do you want to join me?”

  “I think that would defeat the entire point of taking a shower. We would just get dirtier.”

  “That’s not true!” I exclaimed. “We’d only get dirty a little bit and then clean.”

  “One step forward, two steps back. That’s a great idea.”

  “Last chance, you sure you don’t want to get in with me?”

  “I think getting in after you will be good enough.”

  I laughed. Even though we were together now, Clara still had a smart mouth. I wanted badly to put my dick back inside of it, but I would postpone it for now. We had plenty of time together, now. I still could hardly believe that we were together, in a relationship. I never would have thought I’d be in one.

  I went ahead and decided to get in the shower, although I wished that a certain redhead was joining me. I didn’t have anything that I had to do, considering that I didn’t do much regarding work, unless an asset was doing unbelievably bad or unbelievably well. But so far I hadn’t received any notification of anything, so I was planning to spend my entire day with Clara.

  Our first day as a couple.
