Seduced by Two

by Mia Ford

  “I fell hard. I love you, Caroline.” I looked at him before I wrapped my arms around his waist and cried into his green t-shirt. “I want you and the baby. I don’t want to be apart. Should I start looking for something here?”

  “What?” I asked as I stepped back to look at him. “Your company!”

  “I’ll sell it. I’ll run it from here. Anything to be with you, Caroline.” He kissed me hungrily again before pulling away. “What is it? A boy or a girl?”

  “I find out in a couple of days. Want to come with me?” I barely got the words out before he was kissing me again, his tongue slipping against mine as I tried to breathe.

  “Yes. Are you kidding me? I am never leaving your side,” Perry told me as I pulled him down for another kiss. “Where is your condo?”

  “How do you know I live in a condo?” I asked as he laughed. “You had someone look for me, didn’t you?”

  “I was worried, heartbroken and bordering on crazy. I had to know something. Let’s get you and my baby some food and go there. I want to know everything about the pregnancy…every detail.” Perry said as my stomach growled, making us both laugh. “Come on. What are you craving?”

  We got some Indian food, a new phase for me. Perry paid for the four bags and drove me back to the condo, unlocking the door to walk inside and look around carefully. I made my way to the fridge for some cold water for both of us before he brought the bags to the small bistro table. We did it like we used to, with just forks as we passed the containers back and forth.

  I was crying again when I finished telling him everything. Perry looked devastated as he pushed the food away and ran a hand through his growing hair. “I am so sorry. I was scared, and everything happened so fast.” I took a deep breath. “I was never on the pill, Perry. I just wanted you.”

  “We were meant to create this,” Perry told me as I raised an eyebrow at him. “We were meant for all of this, just like you said.” He cleaned up as I watched, then took me to the couch as he cleared his throat. “I brought something from the house for you.”

  “What?” I asked as he drew close and kissed me softly.

  “I planned this before I saw you,” he assured me as he reached into his pocket and drew something out. “I like that you’re wearing the necklace, Caroline. I have something to match it.” Perry looked into my eyes and held something close for a moment. “I realized that I loved you when we were on the island. All of you. I have never felt that way with a woman before in my life. It was magical.” He showed me a box that clearly held jewelry, flipping up the lid to reveal the diamond wedding set that graced my mother’s left hand every day of her life with me. My eyes widened as I looked into his eyes. “I want you to marry me, Caroline. I will do anything I need to be with you and our child. I just know that I never want to be without you ever again. To hell with what people think.”

  I threw myself into Perry’s arms, crying as I told him that I would marry him. He slipped the ring on my hand and kissed me hard as I moaned, knowing that I could have him now. “You know the worst thing about being pregnant?” I had whispered before I kissed his neck. “The hormones. I have been getting myself off every night since I am kind of crazy about this particular man. Want to help me with that?”

  “Fuck, yes,” he told me as he claimed my lips hungrily. We stripped on the couch, and he made me come with his finger against my clit before he carried me to the bedroom. “You’re taking tomorrow off,” Perry told me as he dropped me on the bed and lowered his mouth to mine.

  “I can’t. They have been so nice to me,” I protested as Perry lowered his lips to my neck. “I’ll take the day off for the appointment the next day.”

  “I am going to find us a house on the beach then. Something with room for us and the baby,” he murmured in between kisses as I laughed. “Do you want to stay here?”

  “I don’t know. I am still wondering if this is a dream,” I whispered as I arched my back and offered him my breasts. He cupped them gently, telling me how beautiful I was with his baby growing inside of me. I knew that I was bigger and I cried out as his mouth covered my nipple, sucking gently. He slowly kissed down my body, his lips pressing gently against my swollen belly as he told our baby that he loved them.

  He was between my legs after that, his mouth rough and hungry as he tasted me. I tugged on his hair as I rocked against him, screaming his name as I came all over his lips. Perry moved right up and over me, slipping his cock inside of me as we both groaned together. “I love you so much,” I told him as I stared into his eyes for a long moment. It felt like forever since I realized my feelings and a weight was lifted once I spoke them aloud.

  “I love you. I can’t wait until we see our baby and find out what we’re having,” he told me as he kissed me again, driving himself into her hard and deep as I cried out his name.

  We came together in a rush of heat, our bodies toppling together as he rested gently against my body.

  We made love again before I fell asleep in his arms.

  I took the next day to think about what I truly wanted. I knew that I wanted to be with Perry, and I imagined all our years in Colorado with a wistful smile. That was home. “Are you okay?” Lauren asked as I looked across our office at her.

  “I think I’m going back to Colorado. Am I crazy?” I asked as she laughed, knowing everything about Perry and me. We’d celebrated with donuts from the corner bakery after I showed her the ring.

  “Not at all.” Her smile was bright.

  I told Perry the following day after we saw our daughter, both of us reduced to tears. He said that he never looked for a place to begin with before he kissed me. I went to talk to my boss that afternoon with him to tell him the bad news, not surprised when they supported me wholeheartedly. They even offered to give me a letter of recommendation, making me thank them tearfully. I hadn’t been there long enough to ask any of that, in my opinion.

  We decided to marry at a local chapel since there was no family to invite. We’d both lost too many people and just wanted our new life to start, so we said our vows on a balcony overlooking the ocean as the man performed the ceremony while his wife and daughter watched with tears in their eyes.

  He packed up my car the following day after we’d spent the night in the bed at the condo, promising me a wonderful life filled with babies as I came repeatedly. We took his rental car back to Avis, and he took the driver’s seat for our ride home.

  Perry stopped a hotel halfway through the drive. He told me that I needed some proper sleep but undressed me once we were in the suite, making love to me in the big bed as if he hadn’t seen me in weeks. “Is every time going to be this good?” I asked as I rested in his arms afterward.

  “It might be more of a quickie when the baby comes along, but you’ll always be the best thing that happened to me,” Perry assured me as he smiled at me. “Do you think that they’re looking down at us?”

  We’d seen a gorgeous sunset right after we were pronounced husband and wife, so I knew it for a fact. That was her sign to us.

  It seemed like time flew by once we were home and getting ready for the baby. Mila Delaney Adams was born at the end of February, named after her grandmothers. She had his eyes and my hair. Perry and I took her home to the house in the woods, holding her as the fire roared in the fireplace. Her nursery was in the room beside Perry’s that was never used before since it was his floor. Now it was her little place in this house.

  We were married for two years when we gave Mila a brother named Brandon, happy to welcome another member into our family. I was staying home with the kids and helping Perry at the office as needed. We had two dogs by now from the local rescue as well as three cats running around the house. It was chaos, but it was ours, and we loved every moment of our lives.

  I can’t say that everyone in our life accepted us as a couple. There was a handful that found it disgusting as well as disrespectful to my parents, but we just had to leave them behind. We had our own life to carve ou
t with our new family. We had each other.

  We had love.

  The End
