Taming_Damian_-_Jessica_Wood_-_BN

by Jessica Wood

  My chest felt full and filled to the brim with happiness while my cock twitched with anticipation of our future together. I knew Alexis would love my surprises for her today, but to see the excitement on her face and to hear her gush about it made me feel like the richest man in the world.

  ***

  “Hey babe!” Alexis yelled out from the bathroom.

  “Yah! Did you need anything in there?” I could hear the shower running inside and felt a jolt of panic.

  “Can you come inside for a minute?”

  “Are you sure?”

  “Yes.”

  “Okay, I’ll be right there.”

  Since that day at the Palace of Fine Arts, we had grown closer than ever together. We had started having sex more regularly and she had been more open with me about her fears and insecurities since her mastectomy. But she had still been uncomfortable with me seeing her topless, and when we made love, she wanted to keep her shirt on. I knew it would take time for her to fully recover emotionally and I knew she needed to do it on her own terms.

  I walked to the bathroom and slowly opened the door, giving her time to change her mind.

  But I heard no objections.

  “Hi,” she said breathlessly as she looked at me from the open crack of the shower curtain.

  “Hey.” I smiled at her.

  She smiled back at me and my heart skipped a beat. I loved the way she looked at me—it was a look that I could never get sick of, it was a look that I couldn’t live without.

  “Come join me in the shower.” She gave me a come-hither smile and my cock hardened immediately.

  “You don’t need to ask me twice.” I stripped off my clothes and walked over to shower.

  She laughed. “That must be a world record for removing clothes.”

  “When it comes to you, baby, I aim to please.”

  She pulled the curtain open and I stepped in.

  I pulled her face into mine and kissed her tenderly. Her lips were sweet like honey and I tasted her eagerly. A sigh escaped her lips as my tongue parted her mouth and explored hers.

  After a few minutes, she pulled away and I saw tears in her eyes.

  “What’s wrong baby?” I wondered if I hurt her in any way.

  “I’m sorry. I’m really trying, please believe me. I…I just don’t feel attractive at all.” Tears fell from her eyes as she turned away from me to shield her body from me.

  “Alex,” I said softly as I turned her shoulders toward me. Our eyes met, and I hoped she could see the love I had for her in my gaze. “You look radiant! You’re glowing and it’s beautiful.”

  I gently place my hand on the scar that ran across the right side of her chest, where her full breast once was. Her eyes met mine and I saw the despair and lost in her eyes. I leaned down and kissed her forehead. “This is beautiful,” I whispered. “The sacrifice and courage you’ve shown me for the sake of our child is beautiful. Not every mother would do such a thing for their child.” My eyes glistened as I thought back to my own mother. “You’re beautiful.” I pulled away and looked passionately into her eyes. “I can never fully express how much I love you. You are the most beautiful woman I know, and you take my breath away each time I see you.”

  Tears filled her eyes as her hands held tightly around my hand against her chest. She squeezed it as the tears rolled down her cheeks.

  “I love you, Damian.”

  “I love you too, Alex.”

  I felt a need inside me grow and I knew I needed her now.

  “Let me make you feel amazing, baby.”

  I pinned her against the back wall of the tub and began to kiss her urgently. She gasped as my free hand moved down my body and moved up between her legs.

  “Fuck, baby. You’re already so wet.”

  She reached for my cock and I threw my head back violently as her wet hands moved along the length of my shaft. “And you’re already so hard.”

  I grabbed her hand and against my own desires, I pulled it away from cock.

  She looked up at me in confusion.

  “Baby, you’re going to have our baby soon. I don’t want you to do any work. So right now, it’s all about you, okay? Let me just make you feel amazing.”

  I turned off the shower and pulled the removable shower head from its base.

  “Now lie on top of me so you’re comfortable,” I instructed as I laid down in the tub and helped Alexis as she slowly lowered her back against my body.

  My cock throbbed as she pressed her back against me and moved against my erection. I knew she was trying to tease me. She was dying for me to fuck her, and as much as my cock wanted the same thing, I wanted today to only be about her.

  “Like I said, it’s all about your pleasure right now,” I groaned into her ear as I held her hips in place. “Now relax and enjoy.”

  “But I want you inside me, Damian,” she panted.

  “Not today, baby. Do you know what I’m going to do to you today?” I asked seductively.

  She shook her head as her body writhed on top of me.

  I leaned close her to ears and whispered huskily, “I’m going to make you come like you’ve never come before, baby.”

  She gasped at my words and I saw her chest heave up and down in anticipation.

  I grabbed my bottle of Dr. Bronner’s organic liquid soap with peppermint oil from the side of the tub and squeeze a few drops in my palm.

  Alexis inhaled sharply when she realized what I was going to do.

  I massaged the peppermint oil soap onto my hands and began to circle my fingers around her clitoris.

  She cried out in pleasure as her hands tightened their grip on my thigh. “Oh God, Damian!” she screamed in uneven breaths. I felt her clit swell under my fingers and knew she was close to her climax. I inserted two fingers inside her as I turned on the shower head.

  “Wh—what’s that for?” she asked through uneven breaths.

  “It’s for your earth-shattering orgasm,” I groaned in her ear.

  Before she can respond, I placed the water pressure against her clitoris and moved my fingers deeper into her pussy with each thrust. Gasps and moans escaped her lips as I felt her begin to clench onto my fingers.

  “Fuck! Baby, I’m going to come!”

  “Yes,” I roared, “Come for me baby.”

  “I’m coming!” she cried out in pleasure as her orgasm consumed her and she stiffened on top of me.

  Then I felt liquid slid down my cock and smile.

  “That’s some orgasm,” I smirked, feeling proud of myself for making her come so hard, she had a female ejaculation.

  “Um, Damian?”

  “Yeah,” I groaned in pleasure.

  “I think my water just broke.”

  CHAPTER SIXTEEN

  Alexis

  “Hooo Hooo heee. Hooo Hooo heee.” I tried to keep my breathing steady and controlled to cope with the agonizing pain.

  “Come on, Alexis. You’re about eight inches dilated. It won’t be long now.”

  “God! I’m not sure I can take this any longer!” I screamed. I was approaching my ninth hour of labor and baby Isabella was certainly taking her sweet time.

  I looked over at Damian, who was a few yards away. He ran his hands through his hair as he paced around the room. He looked over at me and mouthed a “I’m sorry.” The nurse had told him to step away from me when he started to freak out. I had laughed at the time. I had never seen Damian lose his composure like that before.

  But now the pain had gotten too intense, and laughter was the last thing on my mind. All I could do was to focus on my breathing and watched him pace nervously around the room while constantly glancing between the two nurses, the doctor, and me.

  I could feel drops of sweat roll down my face as I tried to control my breathing.

  After what seemed like days of indescribable pain, the nurse finally said, “Okay, you’re fully dilated now. I can see the baby’s head and she’s ready to come out, so we’ll need you to really
push.”

  I screamed in pain as I felt as if my body was being ripped in two. Something’s fucking ripping down there, that’s for sure, a tiny voice in the back of my mind screamed sarcastically.

  Damian rushed to my side, and I saw the sheer panic and worry on his pale-stricken face. “Baby, what can I do?” He brushed a few dampen strands of hair from my face. “Tell me what you need me to do. I’ll do anything.” His face scrunched into a frown each time I screamed, as if he was experiencing the same earth-shattering pain that I was feeling.

  “Hold my hand,” I begged. “Just fucking hold my hand and give me strength.” Both tears and sweat ran down my face as the pain radiated through my entire body. I felt his strong hands clasp onto mine and I squeezed them as I fought through the agony.

  “Push, Alexis, push!” the nurse yelled.

  “Ughhh!”

  “Baby, you can do this! You are the strongest person I know! You’re beautiful and very soon, we’re going to have a beautiful baby girl.”

  A part of me wanted to scream at him to shut up, to stop lying to me that I was beautiful right now when I was probably the most hideous monster to have ever screamed her lungs out. I squeezed his hand ever harder, wishing he could feel an ounce of the pain I was going through right now.

  “Shut up!”

  “Shit, aren’t you glad we didn’t do the natural birth thing and we got the epidural?”

  “Fuck! I hate you right now for being a man!” I glared at him.

  Damian chuckled at my unreasonableness and a part of me hated him a little more. “Baby, I hate myself too! I wish I could shoulder this pain for you.”

  “Push!” screamed the nurse again.

  “What the fuck do you think I’m doing?!” I screamed back at the nurse.

  “Sorry, she’s a feisty one!” Damian said to the nurse.

  She laughed. “They’re always the strongest.”

  “I know. That’s quite a gripe!” Damian made a face as I clenched onto his hand even tighter.

  “Uhhh! You fucker! You did this to me! I! Haaaattte! Youuuu!” I screamed as I pushed again with all my strength.

  “I see the head!” the nurse exclaimed. “Keep pushing!”

  “Can you see her?” I asked Damian as I looked down toward the nurse. “Ahhh!” I pushed once more.

  “Oh God. This shit is crazy! Alex, push! She’s coming out! You’re almost there!” Damian’s face turned pale white as his mouth gaped open, watching me from behind the nurse.

  I pushed one last time, and then I heard her. Isabella’s crying filled the air and it was the sweetest sound I’d ever heard.

  I watched as Damian cut the umbilical cord and stared at Isabella in awe. The nurse gently wrapped Isabella in a towel and placed her in my arms.

  “Mommy, come say hello to your sweet baby girl.”

  “She’s beautiful,” I laughed and cried as tears streamed down my face. I looked up at Damian who beamed at me.

  “Just like her mother,” he whispered.

  We both stared at Isabella as she whimpered and looked back at us with fascination.

  Damian leaned down and kissed Isabella gently on the forehead before kissing my forehead. “Alex, baby. I made her. We made this beautiful tiny thing.”

  And it was then that I saw Damian cry for the first time.

  EPILOGUE

  Damian

  Today was a big day—a life-changing big day.

  There had been only a few of these type of days in my life where I’d felt this nervous and anxious. Today was by far the biggest of those days.

  I was sitting in the parking garage structure attached to the back of the hospital going over my thoughts. After a few minutes, I took a deep breath and got out of the SUV.

  “Wake up, sleepy head,” I whispered as I opened the door to the back seat where Isabella was fast asleep. I watched as she whimpered softly and stirred gently in her car seat. She moved her thumb into her mouth and began to suck on it.

  I chuckled. Just like her mom. I shook my head in amazement as I watched her. I still couldn’t believe that my baby girl was six months old. She was the most beautiful thing I’d ever seen. I beamed down at her and thought of Alexis. She had her mother’s natural beauty.

  She also has her mom’s feistiness, I thought as Isabella began to cry when I picked her up from her car seat.

  “Izzy, you’re even beautiful when you cry.” I chuckled. “You’re probably still cranky from being woken up from your nap, huh?” I placed her back in her seat and kissed her button nose. She started to calm down and sniffled as she stared at me.

  “Cheer up, buttercup. Today’s a fresh new day! You never know what’s just waiting for you around the corner. Every new day comes new possibilities. So why not start your day happy with a smile on your face.” I repeated the words Alexis’s father used to say to her. This precious little thing was my daughter, and I wanted to be as great of a father to her as Alexis’s father was to Alexis. My baby girl deserved at least that amount of love.

  Isabella looks up at me with her sparkling blue eyes full of wonder, and as if she understood what I had just told her, she giggled and mumbled something only she could understand and laughed in delight.

  I smiled down at her. Her angelic laughter was infectious. “Come on, sweetie, we’re going to go see your mommy,” I crooned as I picked her back up from her car seat. This time she only fussed and whimpered.

  As I walked to the elevators with her in my arms, her tiny fingers pointed at the bright orange doors of the elevator.

  “Eh,” she gurgled and looked at me for my approval.

  I grinned at her. “Yes, these are the doors to the hospital where mommy is.” I wondered if she recognized these doors from all our previous trips to the hospital.

  As one of the elevator doors opened, bright florescent lights from the elevator lit up the parking lot. Isabella rubbed her eyes and hid her face against my neck as we got into the elevator.

  When her eyes adjusted to the light, she was full of spirit as she jumped down and up in my arms.

  “Da!” she giggled as she touched my nose with her tiny index finger. There was still sleep in her inquisitive eyes, and I felt a warmth grown in my chest that radiated through my body. I wanted to believe that she was telling me that I was her dad and there was nothing else she needed more in her tiny hands but me.

  “Yup. That’s me, and daddy loves you.” I gently tapped her button nose with my finger. She giggled at my tough and started laughing. Her innocent eyes stared at me as her tiny fingers moved playfully around the contours of my face. I beamed at her. I realized that I’d never get tired of the way she looked at me—it was the look of the most pure, unadulterated trust and love that someone could receive—it was what I lived for.

  All my doubts about being a father had disappeared that day the nurse put her in my arms. I knew at that very moment that I wanted to do everything in my power to protect her and make her happy. Over the six months since she’d come into our lives, I’d grown attached to her as much as I’d grown attached to Alexis. I’d never felt my heart feel so full as I now had with them in my life.

  A few minutes later, I walked into Alexis’s hospital room with Isabella sucking on her thumb.

  “Hey,” I said softly to Alexis as she looked up at us with a weak smile. “How are you feeling?” I kissed her on the forehead.

  “I’m okay. I’m just glad today’s the last day of my radiation therapy and I get to go home and never come back here again.” She looked gaunt and worn down as she gave me a small smile. She reached for Isabella, who reached for her mother excitedly.

  I reached for Alexis’s hand and squeezed it as she looked up at me.

  “How are you feeling? How’s Izzy been lately? I’m sorry I haven’t been around much to help take care of her.”

  “Baby, don’t be ridiculous! I can handle Izzy on my own right now. She’s a perfect baby—” I stopped mid-sentence and chuckled. Alexis cocked her h
ead and gave me a skeptical look. “—Okay so not perfect, but she’s been great.”

  She laughed.

  “So Izzy and I got you something.”

  “Oh?” She looked down at Isabella and tickled her. “What is it?”

  I got down on one knee in front of them and showed her the two karat vintage diamond ring.

  When she looked over, she gasped in surprise. Tears glistened her eyes and she beamed down at me.

  “Alexis Elizabeth Blythe. For the longest time, I felt dead inside, and my mother’s betrayal, I gave up on the idea that there could be love in my life. I was moving through life and I wasn’t looking for anyone, let alone anyone to love. I wasn’t searching for love, and yet love found me, and it was you that brought me back to life. Before you, I never really understand what the whole fuss was about when I saw couples together. Before you, I never realized how it felt to just smile randomly, for no apparently reason, simply because you were that happy to be alive. Before you, I never really knew that I had something to live for.”

  “Oh Damian.” Tears streamed down Alexis’s face as she choked back the sobs.

  “Alex, you are the most amazing person I’ve met in all my life. Being with you brings me so much joy and happiness that sometimes I have to pinch myself because I feel like I’m in a dream. I hear some people say that you may only come across one or two people in a lifetime that alters your life forever. I was lucky enough to come across two people that have changed me to the core. You are the first person, and you are the person that gave me the gift of our beautiful daughter, and she is that second person. You brought so much meaning to my life that I want to spend the rest of my life repaying you for that. I know I’ve made many mistakes in my life, including ones that have hurt you. But let me spend the rest of my life making it up to you. Will you tame this unworthy, cocky, bastard of a man, and marry me?”

  I fought back the tears as I looked up at her and waited for her answer.

  Tears streamed down her face as she nodded, chocking back a sob.

  I got up and placed the ring on her finger and kissed her passionately as my chest swelled with intense bursts of emotion. Isabella poked at my face as she watched us kiss.
