I called and made reservations at one of the most popular restaurants in town. One where I knew everyone who’s who was sure to be. My next call was to mom before I left the office to go see her. I sent off a text to my girl. Just a simple ‘miss you’. I shook my head with a secret smile when I got her response ‘I ache’ just as I climbed into the back of the car.
It wasn’t until I’d finished reading and her face flashed across the screen that I realized just how much she’d infiltrated every aspect of my life. I’d carried her picture everyday since a few months after she came to me. I’d never put too much stock in it, that’s what parents do right? And she’d been so pleased when I’d done it.
But now I could admit to myself that in the last few months at least, that picture had come to mean something else, something more. Plus the fact that I’d changed it from the cute little gap toothed angel to the one of her the night of the party was a dead giveaway.
We pulled up outside my childhood home and I sat in contemplation for a minute. When I walk out of there something was going to be different. Mom would either congratulate me or curse my ass. I wasn’t sure which I deserved, but I knew what my heart wanted and I’m fucked if I’m giving that up to please anyone.
I let myself in and headed for her favorite place in the house. She was fussing around her flowerpots and singing to her babies. I watched her until she noticed me in the doorway and that smile I knew my whole life spread across her face. Will this be the last time I saw that smile?
“Mom, I think you better sit down.”
“Why what is it, what’s happened? Is it Alexandra? Where is she?”
“Calm down mom, Alex is…fine.” She watched me skeptically as I led her to a seat and crouched down in front of her.
Taking her hands in mine, I thought of all the years the three of us have had together. I knew she loved my girl like she was her own. She’d watched her grow right along with me, and took so much pride in the woman our girl was becoming.
Would she blame me for tainting that? Well fuck! For someone who’s lived my life by my own rules without regards to what anyone else thought, I was finding this shit damn near impossible. I wasn’t worried about how I would change in her eyes, but how she would see Alexandra. All my angst and worry was for her.
She’d already suffered so much loss; been so hurt in her short life, I never want anything to touch her. If she lost mom’s love I knew it would hurt her. We were all she had. I took a deep breath and tried to find the right words. “Mom, I’m going to tell you something that you may not like. Please just hear me out before you say anything.”
I opened my mouth and the words just came. By the end I was giving her all the reasons why this was right. Why no one else could ever love Alexandra the way I do.
“Don’t you want us both to be happy? Mom, what the hell are you grinning at?” I was losing my shit and she was laughing her ass off. Not just laughing either, deep gut twisting unladylike guffaws. So unlike my genteel serene mother.
“Nothing, you should see your face.” She patted my cheek and got to her feet going back to what she was doing before I interrupted her. “And you’ve come here for my blessing I suppose.” She watered a plant like this shit was natural.
“I wasn’t thinking of it like that, but I guess. I wanted you to know before going public tonight.” She turned to look at me. “That’s my boy; you always were one to take the bull by his balls.”
“Mom.” What the fuck?
“Oh grow up. Anyway I have to let you in on a little secret.” Now I looked at her suspiciously.
“What?”
“I’m not surprised by what happened. In fact I kinda sorta helped.” Come again. “What are you saying?” She put down the water pot and wiped her hands on the cloth around her waist. “I’m saying that I’ve known for a very long time that that little girl was in love with you.”
“When she finally got brave enough to tell me a year or so ago I told her she was too young, that you would never even consider such a thing, but if she waited…” She shrugged her shoulders at me.
“Plus I wanted her to be sure that you’re what she wants. I knew if you two started anything and it didn’t work out it would shatter our family.”
“She stuck to her guns, but she respected my wishes and didn’t make a move, until her birthday.” It was taking me a while to catch up. I couldn’t believe my ears. Here I was thinking she was going to disown me and she’d been part of it.
“I helped her choose the dress.” She seemed proud of her damn self. “And the rest of it? Her making me crazy for the last six months?”
“Oh it worked on your dad so I thought what the hell. You can thank me later. Did she tell you about the wedding?” My guts tied itself in knots and my ears started ringing.
“Wedding?” I had a feeling I knew where this was going. Strange, while I was doing all that thinking that was the one thing that never entered my mind. I guess, because she was already mine in every way it didn’t seem that important.
“Yes of course. We’ve already started planning. Not to worry, I know how you feel about that stuff so Alexandra and I are going to handle everything our selves. You better get going if you’re going to your fancy dinner tonight.” She kissed my cheek and all but hustled me out the door.
What the fuck just happened in there? I looked back at the house as if seeing it for the first time. She knew? How the fuck did she know and I didn’t? Years? I tried to think back to the time before I first noticed the change. Could I really have been that blind?
Knowing what I do about her heart, all I could think of was the parade of women I’d had in and out of my life in that time. What must she have felt? I felt like the world’s biggest asshole as I headed for home. All this time I thought I was protecting her and I’d been the one hurting her. “I’ll make it up to you babydoll. I promise.” I ran my thumb over her smiling face on my telephone screen.

I let the staff go as soon as I walked through the door and poured myself a drink as I waited for her to come home. Once alone, I finally had time to think about mom’s reaction and the things she’d said. I thought of the young girl I’d been responsible for all these years, and how the love we had for each other had changed in the last few days.
There was no question I was in love with her. All the way stupid in love, which left me with another problem. What the fuck do I know about being in love? Nothing! So far, I’ve been playing this shit by ear, just going with the feeling. Plus we hadn’t done anything but fuck since the big change; the fuck am I supposed to court a teenage girl?
I can’t treat her the way I had all the women who’d been in and out of my life since I was old enough to understand that my dick was for more than pissing. In fact the wild urge I had to spoil the shit out of her was new.
When I’d spoilt my ward, it had been with things suitable for the child she was. Now my mind was filled with all the gifts I wanted to shower my woman with. Her spoilt ass is about to become even more so.
I took a sip of my scotch and rested my head back against the chair with a half smile. Now all her fucking antics made sense. She’d been reeling me in even before I caught her scent. How the fuck had she dealt with it? I’ve only known this need for her the last few days and already the separation of a few hours was more than I could stand. Eighteen fucking years old, and she’d tamed the beast.
I felt the excitement grow like a teenage boy the closer it got to the time she’d be walking through the door. “She’s taken my fucking balls.” No way was I letting her know that shit. She’s already a handful, if she knew the power she had over me my ass would never know peace.
Now that I think of it, she’d owned me in one way, or another since the day she became my responsibility. Nothing had to change. We already lived together. I just have to move her into my room. And then there’s the question of college in the fall. I’m pretty sure I’m not letting her go anywhere; hope
fully, she wouldn’t give me too much shit over it.
I heard movement outside and got up to look. I watched her through the window as she parked and turned to wave sassily at her security team before running up the steps. She looked so happy, so carefree.
“I’m home.” I’ve heard that same greeting almost everyday for the past seven years, only this time it had a whole new affect on me. I heard her bag hit the floor before she raced through the house to me, calling out my name.
I held my arms open for her and she flew into them with a loud whoop. “Hey sneak.” She gave me a look before holding her mouth up for my kiss. I made my way to the chair behind my desk with our lips fused together.
When we finally came up for air, she was straddling my hips and my hands were full of tit. She pressed her ass down on my hard cock and rocked.
“Umm, you weren’t lying, you really did miss me.” She fought with my zipper until I decided to help her out and released my cock. She hiked up her little schoolgirl skirt and rubbed her panty-clad crotch up and down my cock.
I popped the remaining buttons off her shirt and pushed her bra out of the way so I could take her into my mouth. My hand went between us to push her underwear aside before lifting her enough to seat her back down on my cock. Her pussy swallowed me whole and I was still amazed that one so small could fit all of me inside her.
“Fuck me naughty girl.” Naughty because her pussy was already wet when I slid up inside her. “Why is your pussy so wet babydoll?” “It’s been like that all day. I couldn’t concentrate on a thing. I couldn’t wait to get back here to you, and this.” On the last word, she slammed herself down hard on my cock and shoved her tongue in my mouth. I guess the conversation was over.
“Go put on your best dress, we’re going out tonight.” Her eyes widened and her face split into a smile. “Really? You mean like as a couple?” We were heading out of the shower where I’d just done her against the wall after fucking her in my office chair.
Her body was pink from the hot water and excitement no doubt, when I clasped her to me. “Yes, like a couple.” I kissed her nose and put her away from me when she rubbed her towel covered pussy against my cock that never seemed to go down around her.
She whooped and ran from the room making me shake my head as she muttered some shit about needing time to get ready. Typical female.
I was dressed, ready and waiting downstairs for her when she made her way to the top of the stairs. I heard her coming and went to meet her. The first shock was the poise. Her usual teenage slouch as I fondly call it was gone. Instead, she stood tall and proud with her shoulders back and her head held high.
Next was the beauty. She’s a naturally beautiful girl, but tonight she shone. Her hair was brushed to a high sheen and fell straight at the sides of her face and down her back. She’d added color to her eyes. Not too much, just enough to bring attention to their unusual color and shape.
Her lips were a pale pink that she’d simply glossed. She stopped on the stairs when she saw me and struck a pose. “Well, what’s the verdict? Do I look good enough to be on your arm?” The bright red off the shoulder dress she wore clung to her curves and stopped just above her knees.
I twirled my finger and she turned, showing off the huge expanse of flesh that had been left bare. Like fuck! “Come here.” I held my hand out to her and she walked the rest of the way down to me.
She didn’t just walk, she seduced. The damn dress was a walking wet dream and her breasts all but spilling over the top put one thing in my mind. I can only imagine that it would be the same for any red blooded male who saw her in that getup.
As soon as she reached me, I took the top of the dress between both hands and pulled, shredding it to pieces. “What…?” I covered her mouth and took her down right there on the stairs as I tore the flimsy bit of silk from her pussy, and fumbling with my zipper, released my cock and fucked into her.
This time when she opened her mouth to scream no sound came. I shoved my tongue into her mouth as I surged into her harder, faster, deeper and blind with lust until I realized I was hurting her.
I picked her up in my arms still impaled on my cock and took her to the landing at the bottom of the stairs. There were no words spoken between us as I lifted her into my thrusts until she pleaded for her poor pussy. That was a first. It was the first time she’d shown any weakness while taking my cock.
Of course I was fucking her harder than before, I had a point to prove. With her ass in one hand I wrapped the other around her neck and shook her until her eyes met mine. “Cum!” I choked her hard enough to make her cough which made her pussy twitch wildly around my cock.
She thrashed and fought-and the more she did the harder she came, pulling at me until my cock exploded. “Find something else to wear; and cover up this time.” I pulled out of her and fixed my clothes before helping her to her feet, and with a pat on her ass sent her upstairs to change.

When she came down again, she was more appropriately dressed. This time in something that was more classically sexy than the flesh bearing getup she thought to wear before. I guess my silence spooked her a little because she seemed unsure of herself.
“Are you mad at me?”
“No.” I took her arm and led her out into the evening air to the car. I sat her in the passenger seat and belted her in before going around to the driver’s side.
I took her hand and brought her fingers to my lips. “I’m never mad at you my pet. Never fear my anger. You’re one of only two people on this earth who never have to. That is of course unless you betray me with another man. Then I’d have to kill you.” She snickered at first until she got a look at my face.
“You’re serious.”
“As a fucking heart attack.” I gave her a look she’d never seen before. I knew what was in that look and so did she after she held my gaze long enough. She swallowed hard and her hand trembled in mine.
“Not to worry my love. You and me, we’re two of a kind, loyal to a fault. Plus, I will never let you fail me, just as I will never fail you. That’s a promise. Besides, I raised you better than that.” We both shared a grin at that and the mood lightened immediately.
“So where are we going?”
“The Gardens.” Her head whipped around and her mouth fell open. The last time she asked to go there I told her she was too young. There was a reason. I hate that damn place. It’s full of gossip and rumor.
Many lives are made and destroyed at its tables under cover of social dining. I usually steer clear of that den of vipers, but tonight it serves my purpose. I knew that by the time we leave there tonight tongues would be wagging and news of our relationship would’ve spread by morning light.
“We’re here.” I passed the keys to the valet after helping her out of the car and led her to the restaurant entrance. The proprietary arm around her waist was the first sign that something had changed, and I felt eyes following us to the table I’d specified.
The bottle of champagne I ordered beforehand was chilling on the table. There were three roses set at her place. One each of red, orange and lavender. Each representative of love, passion and adoration.
I seated her and instead of taking the chair across from her, I chose the one closest to her side. She sniffed her flowers and smiled coyly at me. “Thank you, they’re beautiful.”
“Do you know the meaning of each color?” She shook her head and I explained. “Don’t forget them when we leave. I plan to fuck you with them later.” She grew flushed and the pulse in her neck raced as she looked from the blossoms to me.
Just then the sommelier approached and opened the champagne, pouring us each a glass. She looked at me questioningly since she knew I’d strangle her underage ass for drinking.
“We’re celebrating. You’re allowed, but only when you’re with me. If you ever take so much as a sip of beer without me, we’ll have a problem.” She rolled her eyes and played with the stems of her roses.
/>
“And what are we celebrating?”
“Us. Pick up your glass.” She lifted her glass and I mine. “To us. To the most beautiful creature ever made. Be happy babydoll. Be very happy.” We sipped our champagne while smiling into each other’s eyes.
By the time the second course was served, I was holding her hand in mine. If the whispers in her ear, or my hands always being on her in some way or another hadn’t spelt it out for the many onlookers who were pretending not to see, the kiss I gave her over the burning candlelight sure would do it.
I released her lips and went back to my meal. I almost choked on the sawdust I was chewing when I felt her hand on my dick. I let my eyes move slowly towards hers. No shame. She chose a piece of ice from her water glass with her fingers and slipped it between her lips in a sensuous move way beyond her years.
I swallowed the sawdust that had lodged in my throat and waited to see what she would do next. She walked her fingers up and down my cock until I was steel hard and ready to rut in her like a wild moose.
“Have you had enough?” I didn’t need to spell it out for her. I could tell from the smoldering look in her eyes that she was as ready for me as I was for her. “Yes, let’s go.”
I was the one who remembered the flowers as we stood to leave. We didn’t rush out of there but it was close. By the time the valet brought the car around, I was ready to mount her right there on the pavement.
The ride home was a death defying one. She wouldn’t keep her hand off my dick and when she leaned over and her head disappeared beneath the steering wheel I thought for sure I was going into the nearest tree.
“Baby, what are you doing?” Like I didn’t know. Her only answer was to suck my dick into her mouth and do that humming shit that tickles my cockhead. “For fuck sake Alexandra, don’t make me cum while I’m driving.”
