  “Of course,” the concierge said. “Hold on and I’ll get you a chair.”

  Gloria watched as he got up to come around the desk and went to a closet. He brought out a chair and set it down for her.

  “Thanks,” she said as she sat.

  “It’s a nice night,” the man said when he returned to the other side of the desk.

  “Yeah,” Gloria said in a muted tone.

  It killed the conversation stone dead right away and she felt slightly guilty, but she wasn’t really in the mood for talking. The occasional comment still passed between them as the wait stretched out, but they mostly sat in silence as the minutes ticked past.

  The awkwardness of the situation began to get to her after a while and she wondered if she should just go home. The importance of telling Mark what happened preyed on her mind and she couldn’t bring herself to just walk away without seeing him that evening. In the end it was almost an hour after she arrived that he came in the door and she was on her feet the second she saw him.

  “I didn’t expect to see you today,” he said when he walked up to her.

  The concierge came around to get the chair right away and Gloria tried to smile as she thanked him for his help. It faded quickly from her lips.

  “We need to talk,” she said in a quiet voice.

  “That sounds ominous,” Mark replied. “Let’s go up to the apartment.”

  He gripped her elbow and led her across to the elevator and the doors opened right away. She couldn’t bring herself to look at him and there was silence as they went up. The tense atmosphere continued when they reached their floor and Mark gripped her elbow again to lead her along to the apartment. They went inside to the lounge and he immediately walked across to the liquor cabinet.

  “I think I need a shot of whisky,” he said. “Do you want anything?”

  His question gave her an opening to lead in to the discussion they needed to have and she blurted out the words before she could stop herself.

  “I can’t have a drink.”

  A deep frown was creasing Mark’s forehead when he turned to look at her.

  “What do you mean, you can’t?” he asked and the confusion showed in his voice.

  “It probably wouldn’t be good for the baby,” Gloria replied instantly.

  The confusion slowly cleared from Mark’s face and he stumbled over his words.

  “You are …, you’re …, you’re pregnant?”

  Gloria screwed up her face as she nodded. She wasn’t sure what to expect, but it certainly wasn’t what she got.

  “But …, but that’s fantastic!” Mark let out.

  “What?” she asked and the confused expression showed on her face now. “I thought you would be angry about it.”

  “No …, not at all,” Mark went on. “It’s a surprise, I’ll grant you that. It really is fantastic news though.”

  Gloria was amazed and simply watched as he put down the glass of whisky without even taking a drink and came across to embrace her in a hug. Her face was pressed against his shoulder when she spoke.

  “I thought with all you are going through with the divorce that a pregnancy was the last thing you would have wanted.”

  “A pregnancy is why I’m getting divorced,” he said and let out a quiet laugh. “Or the lack of one, I should say.”

  “What do you mean?” Gloria asked.

  “When I was still with Karen, I wanted to start a family,” he told her.

  “I take it she didn’t then.”

  “She didn’t say no,” Mark went on. “But she gave me an ultimatum that she wouldn’t get pregnant unless I cancelled the prenuptial agreement. It was the start of the end for our marriage. It was clear that money was the most important thing to her and the situation spiraled out of control from that point on to where it stands now.”

  Gloria eased herself out of the embrace to look at him.

  “Which isn’t really a good place considering I’ve just made things worse by getting pregnant,” she said.

  “It’s not just down to you,” he replied.

  “It wasn’t intended,” Gloria told him. “I did get a contraceptive injection, but unfortunately the first sex we had was unprotected. It was obviously enough to get me pregnant.”

  “What’s happened has happened,” Mark said. “We can’t change it now.”

  “But you made it pretty clear that you didn’t even want Karen to find out about me during the divorce,” she said. “A pregnancy will make things a whole lot worse won’t it?”

  “We just need to be careful and make sure she doesn’t find out,” he replied.

  Gloria inhaled deeply as she prepared herself to give him the bad news.

  “It’s too late for that,” she admitted.

  “What do you mean?” he asked.

  “You might want to get your whisky,” Gloria said then set about telling him the events of the day, from her visit to the doctor all the way through to Jack finding the pregnancy leaflets in her bag and making his blackmail threat.

  “Fuck,” Mark cursed when the story was over.

  “I’m sorry,” Gloria said. “I didn’t mean for this to happen.”

  Mark finally did walk across to the drinks cabinet and picked up the glass. He brought it to his lips, tilted his head back and downed the whisky in one. Opening the bottle, he poured himself another shot before speaking.

  “It’s not your fault and I’m not annoyed at you,” he said and moved across the room. “I’m angry at your scumbag ex-boyfriend.”

  “So …, what do we do?” Gloria asked. “Jack said he would return in a couple of days and he wanted an answer by then.”

  “That woman at your apartment during the party was a hooker?” Mark said.

  It wasn’t quite what Gloria was expecting to hear, but she nodded her head as she spoke.

  “That’s what Jack said this evening. The drugged drink was obviously to make you easy to handle and supposedly the plan was to get you on camera with her then threaten to release the footage unless you paid them.”

  “Did you know the woman?” Jack asked.

  Gloria shook her head.

  “I’d never seen her before that night,” she said.

  “Do you think it was just the two of them that hatched the plan?” Mark went on.

  Gloria shrugged her shoulders.

  “Jack never said anything about that,” she told him. “But I doubt it.”

  “Why?”

  “When I was with Jack, he was always coming up with schemes to try and make himself money,” Gloria went on. “Some things he probably did do on his own, but I’d suspect a blackmail plot would be too big for him to arrange without help. I’m not sure he’d be able to find a girl to get involved for a start.”

  “But he knew someone that could, I take it.”

  Gloria mused on it for only a second before she knew that name.

  “If it was going to be anyone, it would be Alain Ledoux.”

  “Who’s he?” Mark asked.

  “A lowlife scumbag,” she replied. “But from all I ever heard about him, he’s a man that likes to think of himself as a criminal mastermind. It’s complete bullshit, but I know he and Jack were ….” She stopped to try and come up with an end for the sentence. “Jack would like to think they are friends and compatriots,” she eventually went on. “But that’s probably not how Alain sees it.”

  “Jack is his lackey then,” Mark said.

  “Yeah, that probably is the right description,” Gloria agreed. “Jack liked to be around him, but he took a few beatings when things went wrong. Come to think of it, when I threw him out of the apartment he was sporting a black eye. That more than likely means that Alain was involved in the plan to set you up with a hooker then got violent when things went wrong.”

  “That means he might be involved again,” Mark said almost to himself.

  “I’m not sure any of this helps us,” Gloria said and moved to sit down on the sofa. “Jack will be at my
apartment in a couple of days looking for an answer and where does that leave us?”

  Mark caught the despair in her voice and put the glass he was holding down before moving across to sit beside her.

  “I’m sorry,” she apologized.

  He touched her chin to make her turn her head and look at him.

  “You don’t have anything to be sorry about,” he told her.

  “But it’s such a mess,” she let out.

  His hand moved to caress against her cheek and she found herself drowning in his blue eyes. The kiss happened before they could halt it and their arms went around each other. Mark got to his feet when it ended and pulled her after him.

  “We can’t,” she said, but made no effort to resist him.

  She followed as he stepped out of the living room and walked along towards the bedroom. It was crazy considering the circumstances, but she was unable to stop herself. The flare of passion was instant when the bedroom door closed and their bodies came together as they embraced. Mark brushed her hair behind her ear.

  “I don’t ever want to lose you,” he said.

  Gloria shuddered as she stared in his eyes.

  “You won’t,” she replied.

  The kiss was soft and brushed against her lips. There was no holding back their desire and both were lost to the flood of arousal as the kiss became more intense. Their longing for each other was a stronger emotion than anything else and their minds emptied of everything but the need to be together. The insanity of it wasn’t lost on Gloria, but as eager hands came to her breasts she let out a rush of breath. She worked a hand in between their bodies and knew that Mark would be hard for her. A shiver raced down her spine when she found that he was and she groped at the solid outline through the material of his pants.

  She was reluctant to let go when Mark stepped away from her, but he grabbed at her hand to guide her over to the bed. He started tugging at her dress when he got her there and his urgency to get her naked excited her. She hauled at the material to get it up her body then lifted her arms, so that the dress could be taken from her.

  Before Mark even dropped it to the floor, she was reaching for the buttons down his front and he dragged the shirt out of his pants to help her get it from his body. Her fingertips played on his naked chest and she trailed them lower when she leaned in towards him. His hands came around her waist to stroke touches on her panties before he grabbed hold of her ass cheeks.

  Gloria kissed on his chest as she worked her hands lower to loosen his pants. She pushed them over his hips to make the material slide down his legs and fondled his erection through his underwear. He kicked off his pants to leave them both standing in just their underwear and she groped his cock more firmly.

  “It’s this that got us in trouble,” she teased him.

  “You should have said no,” was his comeback.

  “I couldn’t after you plied me with drink,” Gloria said.

  “Well, you’ve drank nothing tonight,” he went on with a grin. “You could say no.”

  “It’s too late for that,” she told him. “You’ve already got me pregnant.”

  “Then there’s nothing to worry about,” Mark said and dragged her down on the bed.

  The teasing talk ended when their lips came together and their legs entwined as they embraced. Gloria could make out his erection throbbing against her hip and it was all she could think about. She ended the kiss and Mark didn’t resist when she made him get on his back. In an instant she was over him on all fours and his hands went to her breasts. The way his fingers slid under the material of her bra was a turn on that made her shudder and she let him play with her soft curves for a few seconds before pushing his hands away.

  It allowed her to duck her head down to his, but their lips remained together for no more than a second before she began to kiss lower. Her breath came out in shallow gasps as she flicked out her tongue to lick a wet trail over his taut muscles. She looked up as she kissed on both nipples before almost immediately carrying on with her downward journey. It made Mark’s body arch up towards her as she pressed kisses on the fluttering muscles of his belly and she only lifted her head when it was directly over his crotch.

  She moved to straddle his upper thighs then sat down on them. Her fingers trailed along the naked skin just above his underwear before she slipped her fingers under the waistband. She held her breath as she slowly peeled the material lower to get a view of what she wanted. Mark’s cock was proudly erect and she let her fingertips brush on it as she dragged his underpants completely out of the way. She cupped her fingers around his balls and saw the way it made his erection twitch. It encouraged her to hold on to them as she slowly lowered her head.

  The sound of Mark’s ragged, erratic breaths drove her on and she heard him groan when she kissed on the base of his thickly swollen shaft. Her tongue flicked out and she slid it lower to tease his balls for a second before licking all the way up the center of his erection to the very tip. It got her his taste and made her want more, so she brought her hand up to circle her fingers around his cock. It allowed her to make his erect length point straight up from his crotch and she saw him watching her. Her exhilaration spilled over to action and she held his gaze as she worked her tongue around the slick head of his cock.

  The pure delight of her touch made Mark arch his body up from the mattress and he gripped the bedcovers tightly. The rush of adrenaline coursing through his veins made his blood run hot and his erection throbbed as Gloria tightened her grip around it. She was still looking in his eyes as she parted her lips wider to let them slide over the tip of his stiff shaft. His groan was loud as her tongue swept around his sensitive skin before she ducked her head lower. The thrill of her mouth engulfing more of his length made him writhe around and his knuckles whitened when his hands balled to fists as he grasped the covers in a tighter grip.

  Gloria could sense his hunger for her touch and gave him more, with ragged jerks of her head sliding her lips up and down his erection. She kept licking on his hot flesh as she gave the blowjob and it was only the struggle for breath that made her end it. The tease of letting spit spill over her bottom lip was something she couldn’t resist and she brought her hand up to work the lubrication in to his skin. The slipperiness made it easy to stroke her fingers up and down his full length and she tightened her grip as she did it until Mark was writhing around on the mattress again.

  She eventually moved to the side and dragged his underwear off before getting over him on all fours to crawl up his body. When her breasts were right over his crotch, she leaned down to let them stroke on his erection. The sound of his moans showed just how much he liked it, so she grabbed her tits to trap his cock between them. Mark lifted his butt from the bed as she stroked her soft flesh on him and he began to buck his hips. She held her breasts firmly to allow him to fuck into her cleavage before eventually letting go and moving up the bed until her face was directly over his.

  “Feeling good?” she teased him.

  “Do it again,” he said with a smirk.

  It was obvious he was joking when he grabbed hold to roll her to the side. Gloria expected to be looking up at him, but she was manhandled to lie on her belly. Her dark hair was swept to the side to expose her neck and she pressed her face against the covers when kisses played on her sensitive skin. She let out ragged gasps of breath as the pleasure of the touches engulfed her and squeezed her legs tightly together. Her panties were already moist and getting wetter as Mark unhooked her bra. He straddled her thighs and trailed his fingertips down her spine before leaning forward.

  His lips played on her neck again to make her squirm before he slowly kissed down her spine. The sensual foreplay was setting her alight and the anticipation of what was to come burned through her as kisses slid up and down her body. She was desperate to be flipped over, but Mark seemed in no hurry to do that. His fingers hooked under her panties to ease the silky material lower and he then trailed the tip of his tongue along the exposed cre
ase of her butt.

  A flare of heat erupted between Gloria’s thighs and she bit the bedcovers as the sensual touch of the licking continued. She squealed as her panties were then tugged all the way down her legs to get them off and her legs shook as kisses pressed on them. The soft caresses teased all the way up her thighs and over her butt cheeks to make her muscles quiver and it was only when they ended that she was flipped over. Mark pushed her legs apart to get to what he was lusting after and he ducked his head down immediately.

  “Yes,” Gloria groaned as she got what she wanted.

  Mark’s tongue slid along her slick pussy lips and the delicious heat of desire burned brighter. She remembered the last time they were together and gave him what she knew he wanted. Her fingers plunged in wet folds of skin to expose slick, pink skin and her lover took full advantage. Punishing licks rasped across her clitoris to bring it out of its hood and it was standing erect in seconds. Each touch of Mark’s tongue sent her spiraling higher towards a climax and she knew he wasn’t going to stop before she got there.
