The Baby Contract

by Amy Brent

  We settled together on the bed as I looked drowsily around the room, bright with the sun. It was spacious and comforting in here in his arms, and I snuggled closer to him, my nipples brushing his chest as he let out a low groan. “Stay here with me,” I whispered as he nodded and looked at me for a long moment. We fell asleep tangled together, still naked and I knew that it was going to be some of the best sleep I ever had.

  I woke up later with his mouth over my bare pussy, working my clit with his tongue as I dropped my head back. “Oh, oh, oh,” I murmured as he gripped my thighs, seeing that I was awake. How did he know that I was dreaming about him? I was close to coming in the erotic dream, and I moved a hand down to slide it into his hair as I moaned his name. “How did you know?”

  He finished me off with the drag of teeth across my clit. Declan was panting as he pulled away, his mouth slick with my juices. “You were moaning my name in your sleep. I woke up hard as a fucking rock, and I had to taste you.” I blushed as I looked at him, naked and exposed in the bright light. I’d always preferred darkness before this, and he stared at my body for a quiet moment. “Can I have you again?”

  “Yes, but it’s my turn to make you come,” I told him to get onto his back, and Declan grinned wickedly as he complied. I straddled him, trying to push away my insecurities. James never made me feel sexy, choosing to be critical of my efforts to stay in shape. That combined with the curves of Angela’s body flooded my mind as I felt a hand on my thigh.

  “Are you with me?” His voice was low as I slid down over him and nodded, forcing myself back into the moment.

  “I am,” I assured him as I focused on my movements and the way that he filled me. It was almost too much to bear, and I was soon pressing against his chest as my body gave into him. I was crying out his name within moments as I came weakly again, feeling him bring his hips up to take over until he was coming with rapid breaths.

  “Are you hungry or anything?” He asked as I rolled beside him and slung an arm over his chest.

  “Not yet. I want to sleep with you more.” I had told him before I giggled. “I am going to make you lazy.”

  “You worked all night. Baby. It’s okay to sleep if it’s here with me,” he assured me as I stilled with the use of his endearment. “We’ll get up later and do something. Did you bring anything with you?”

  “I have a bag in the car,” I replied as I watched him smile.

  “I’ll get that later for you.” Declan kissed my forehead gently. “Sleep, gorgeous girl.”

  I smiled as I drifted to sleep again, wrapped in his arms. When I woke up again, the bed was empty, and I could see the sun was higher in the sky. I looked at the clock, seeing that it was three in the afternoon as I stretched my body out. I was so comfortable, and I closed my eyes again as I felt the aches in various muscles. It felt amazing.

  CHAPTER 12

  Declan

  I woke up after a couple of hours, thirsty but reluctant to move. I slowly stretched and slipped out of bed, looking at Rayna curled up into a fetal position with a soft smile on her face. I walked to the kitchen, buck naked and smiling before I grabbed water from the fridge.

  No woman ever made me feel this way before.

  Claire was fun but more comfortable for me. That seemed enough at the time. I looked out of my windows, seeing the city in the late afternoon sun as my mind moved more into the night. I remembered that she said there was a bag in the car and I slipped my feet into some sandals to go out to her car, flipping on the light switch as I looked over the sleek SUV. At least James wanted his wife in a safe vehicle. I tested the passenger side door, finding it open as I pulled gently on it. I saw the purple duffel bag in the back seat and made my way to that door to pull it out. I tested the weight, guessing that it was good for a couple of nights if she was a low maintenance woman.

  Taking it into the house, I carried it to the bedroom and set it gently by the bed. She was now turned towards me, showing off her gorgeous body in her sleep without inhibitions. I noticed that about her when we were together, despite the obvious work in the gym that she was doing. Her planes were defined and sexy with a few curves remaining, and she drove me insane. I was a regular at the gym myself, but I disliked the too skinny women there, and even the ones that were going for too much muscle. I wanted them to look feminine, and I felt the ache between my legs as I looked her over hungrily. I wanted to be inside of her again, and I licked my lips slowly as I told my cock to calm down. She worked all night and needed the rest. There would be plenty of time later after I took her somewhere nice for dinner and conversation. I couldn’t wait to watch her face as we talked closely together, sipping wine and enjoying a meal.

  I looked at the clock, seeing that it was now four-thirty. It would be a late dinner, but I liked those, being used to that with my job. I worked a lot and often ate late into the night, which made my gyms visits more intense. I chuckled to myself as I thought about the workouts that I’d be getting at home now. Those were the kind that I preferred, particularly with a woman as beautiful as Rayna.

  I was watching a game on the couch, dressed in some shorts when I sensed someone in the hallway. I glanced up to see Rayna walking in dressed in my robe with a sheepish smile on her face. “Hi. I slept so long, Declan. I’m sorry.”

  “You were tired from work, Rayna. It’s fine,” I assured her as she looked at me, making my cock hard all over again under the soft material of my shorts. My robe was large on her, but I could imagine all too well what was underneath it as I looked her over with a smile. She shuffled over towards me, dropping on the couch as I felt something race though my body that scared me. I felt my arm reach out to pull her closer to me, smiling as she melted into me.

  “What were your plans?” Her voice was soft, and I felt her face move towards mine as I turned my head to find her lips. I kept it as brief as I could, more than just a peck but not a full make out session.

  “I’d like to get out of town and go to dinner with you. I don’t know what you packed in the bag, but I brought it in for you,” I told Rayna as I got lost in her drowsy gaze.

  “That sounds nice. I’ll need a shower first,” she replied as her eyes invited me to join her. “I have some things in the bag that will work as long as it’s not a fancy place.”

  “Not at all. Good food in an intimate setting. I just want a place that we feel comfortable where we can talk a bit.” I smiled at her. “Did you want help in the shower, Rayna?”

  She managed to drink some water before we were rushing into my big shower, naked as she looked around with an impressed gaze. “You know, for a smaller house this is impressive.”

  “I make the most of what I’ve got,” I teased her as I pulled her under the hot water. She laughed as she dropped her head back to soak her hair, giving me a good view of her gorgeous breasts. They weren’t large but a nice handful and incredibly fun to suck on as I reached out for one of them. “You’re so beautiful, Rayna.”

  I watched her flush as she lifted her face to look at me, wonder in the beautiful orbs. I was stroking her hardening nipple by now, and I felt her hand slide down my stomach to my cock, already half-hard. “I am?” She asked in a shaking voice as I nodded, feeling myself harden further. Her hand gripped me, stroking slowly as I pinched her nipple.

  “I feel like a fucking teenager with you,” I told her as I closed my eyes and gave into the feeling, even though I wanted to come inside of her. I only opened them when she slid down to take me into her mouth, slow and deep. There had been a point during our first night that she did this, hunched over my body on the bed. I wanted to record it since it was so hot. Now was no different. I stayed still, giving her control as she sucked me into her throat slowly to adjust. God, her mouth was so hot and wet, and I knew that I could fill her with me as I slipped my hands slowly into her damp hair. I couldn’t help but rock with her, slowly so I wouldn’t gag her but enough to get a rhythm going as I told her to play with her clit. I knew that she was wet right now
and I wanted her ready when I lifted her against me to fuck her.

  I was close to coming when I pulled away from her and lifted her wet body up, seeing the surprise in her eyes. “You don’t want me to finish?” She had asked before I was inside of her, making her eyes roll back into her head. “Oh, God.”

  “There is a lot of time for everything, but I am going to be inside of you. A lot.” I thrust up as she whimpered, clinging to my neck tightly. Her nipples were hard against my chest, and I knew how sensitive she was as she slid against me with my movements, hearing her moan. Every noise that she made turned me on more, and I fucked her harder as I pressed her against the gray tiles of the shower, taking her hard and deep.

  We came together, our cried echoing through the bathroom as she dropped her head against the wall. I let her go, sucking in deep breaths as she leaned against me and kissed my chest. I gave us a few minutes before I washed her hair for her and then her body, soaping her everywhere as my hands roamed her body slowly. She giggled and did the same for me when I was done, jumping out of the shower to grab a towel as I reached for her again. “I’m hungry!”

  I was as well, and I grudgingly dried myself off. I dressed in some worn jeans and a green button up shirt while she dug into her bag, the towel still wrapped around her body. She grinned as she pulled something out and shook out a dress that looked clingy, featuring an animal print as I eyed it. It seemed to move with every shake of her hand, and I knew that it was going to drive me insane all night.

  She dressed after she dried her hair into loose waves and applied a little makeup. I told her that we were going to drive a bit so we could be alone together without fear of being seen and I noticed the look in her eyes as she stroked mascara onto her lashes. It was a mixture of regret and relief. “I’m sorry.” Rayna’s voice was soft, and I looked at her as I finished buttoning up my shirt. “I feel like this is such an inconvenience for you.”

  I swallowed as I stepped towards her. “That isn’t the part about this that bothers me.” Rayna looked at me for a moment in the mirror. “I just hate that he hurts you, Rayna. I want to keep you safe, during this time that we have as well as beyond that.”

  “I’m okay, Dec.” My heart picked up at the sounds of a nickname coming from her lips. “I just want you happy.”

  She finished getting ready after an awkward moment of silence, and I watched as she slid the dress over the matching bra and underwear. It was clingy and swished around her lower thighs when she walked. Fuck me, but it was sexy. I offered her a protein bar before we left along with some water, knowing that we had a drive ahead of us tonight. She smiled and took it, letting me lead her to the SUV that was to the right of the long driveway as I opened her door. Rayna smiled at me, and I closed the door as my heart picked up yet again.

  I drove us to San Diego and found a small seafood place that I loved, seeing her give me a surprised look. “San Diego?”

  “Just a little drive,” I assured her as I hopped out and went to get her door. Her heels clicked as she stepped out onto the pavement, her dress sliding up just a bit as I watched. I took her hand, and she licked her dark lips as she looked around slowly. We walked inside and were promptly seated in a private corner where we could see the wharf.

  I got to knew her on a deeper lever, feeling the loneliness in her voice as she spoke of growing up with nannies and chefs instead of her parents. They were both working or traveling, but Rayna did observe the lack of love between them and often. For a while, she thought that was how things were until she got her first crush in middle school.

  Sadly, it was the way things were, and she knew soon after that crush that she was going to marry James. He was a player in school, but her mom told her that didn’t matter when Rayna voiced her concerns. It was an excellent pairing and would bring two successful businesses together, giving her a stable financial future. Rayna’s mom never came out and told her that her father cheated, but it was implied.

  There was a part of her that wanted to fight this with all that she had. Rayna watched James sleep his way through high school and even college as she tried to stay in the background. She didn’t date because Rayna didn’t want to get attached to anyone, or worse yet, have them get attached to her. She could leave everything behind and start over, but her parents were her financial support, and she was too scared to go and find a job, a new life.

  She married James when he was two years into college, and she was working at her Dad’s firm. It was just a casual thing until she was married and popping out babies to carry on her name, but both Rayna and James pushed that off. They used condoms even though she was on the pill for rough periods, never telling him that. Rayna feared getting an STD, so she decided to push him into still using protection, but their sex life was never great, to begin with.

  CHAPTER 13

  Rayna

  I hated telling Declan all the details of my pathetic life, but they just came out. I spoke a little to friends at work but was not the type to complain a lot. Thanks, Mom. She set a good example of showing off the good life, impressing everyone with her beauty and wealth. It was what all the people did in their circle, and I hated doing it when in was in that crowd. James seemed like a charming man towards me when we were at a party or a dinner. He appears to cherish me, but when we got home, it was just so different. He was cold and often drunk, and I knew that he might want sex or just to degrade me after being so artificial for the night. It was a sad life and working at the agency at night seemed to take some of the pressure off for me. I was in my own space, mostly alone as I did my work and got to know some of the girls. They were interesting, and I loved hearing their stories. These were not drug addicted women on the street corner as I’d initially thought. They were single mothers, college students, or women saving for a future. They were careful in the sex and selective since the agency required a lot of information before accepting a client. There was an extensive background check. These girls earned top dollar, something I knew personally. The money that was given to be by Declan was a small amount, and while I understood why it was an alternative to building a future for myself, I couldn’t have sex for money. That was supposed to be a one-time event, and here I was involved in a full-blown affair that I was scared that James would discover. He could do whatever he wanted, but I was property. I’d pay the price, not to mention Declan. I looked around the restaurant slowly, seeing nobody that I recognized as I took another sip of wine.

  I tried to remember going out with James like this. It never happened. We’d go meet friends or family, even colleagues for dinner in groups. I’d dress up and make myself look cute, smiling, and laughing with the other women and hating every moment. There was never pure romance, and I smiled as I felt Declan cover my hand with his. Every touch from him made me heat up in more ways than one. I looked at him, bringing myself to the present as I met his eyes. “Hi,” I said shyly as he stroked my hand with his thumb, knowing that he caught me drifting off.

  We ate slowly, talking more as I fell harder for him with each word. Declan was kind and so genuine, admitting his flaws and mistakes while making it clear that he moved past all of them. He told me about his marriage but not with the tone of a man that was devastated. Maybe it was because he was financially stable, but I wasn’t sure. She could take some of his money, and he’d be just fine.

  I saw what he was offering me with every word. He could take care of me and give me everything that I dreamed of. His eyes promised so many things to me every time they held my gaze, and the way that he was always touching me made my body go into overdrive as I smiled at him.

  We walked around a bit that night, looking at the boats as he told me about his own in the harbor back home. It was big enough for him to take off and sleep in, below the spacious deck where he could relax, fish, and just get some fresh air. I think we were both thinking the same thing as he took my hand and pulled me closer to him.

  Declan kissed my open mouth eagerly, cupping my face as I slipped my arms
around his waist. The kiss heated up quickly and he asked in a whisper if I’d like to take the boat out tonight for a couple of days.

  I agreed, and we hurried to the car, slipping inside for another kiss as I laughed against his lips. He started the engine and drove us back towards Los Angeles, heading to the water where he parked the car and grinned at me. “I can’t wait for you to see it.” He kissed me again, his tongue slipping against mine as I gasped against him. We finally got out of the car, and he pulled me to the end of the dock where a large boat was parked, leading me to it as I looked around. This was perfect for the ocean, big enough to handle smaller waves and get him around. I even thought that he could really travel in it as I looked around the deck. His seat to drive it was comfortable and spacious and there was a lot of room around it to relax in various forms. The boat was a steel gray in color, and he released it from the dock before stepping on to join me.
