Picture Perfect: A Second Chance Secret Baby Romance

by Krista Carleson

  “Ouch. Talk about awkward. So I guess you didn’t talk about the good old days.”

  “No, not really. In fact, we barely even spoke to each other that day.”

  “Did you feel anything? You know? Like an old flame or something?”

  I ran my hand down my face and looked once more at Maya. She was smiling at the scene unfolding at the moment on the screen, and my heart contracted with love for her. She was so, so similar to Noah, who had the same smile.

  “Absolutely. It was like it was four years ago and we were together, but I couldn’t even act on it because he was getting married.”

  “You keep talking in past tense. Isn’t he still getting married?”

  “Nope. We saw each other a couple of times after the engagement party, and he told me he wanted to be with me. He never actually loved his fiancée.” I raised my hands in the air when she made a deep frown. “Don’t worry. We didn’t do anything, so he didn’t cheat on her. The big news is that several days ago, he managed to call their engagement off.”

  “Wow. That sounds complicated. Why was he engaged to her in the first place if he didn’t love her?”

  “Because it was his father’s last wish, who died from cancer. Noah inherited his father’s business and started dating that girl, but he couldn’t love her.”

  “And then you came.”

  “And then I came.”

  “I guess he must feel something really special for you if he was ready to go against his father’s last wish.”

  “It’s not that simple. It’s not only because of me. Here is the twist—that girl cheated on Noah.”

  “Wow, wow, wow. This thing is getting juicier.”

  “And I was the one who caught her in the act.”

  “You don’t say.”

  “Mhm. It was at the opening of one of Noah’s hotels. I was also there to take photos, and when I went on a break, I found her kissing another guy. I took pictures and showed them to Noah, who was more than relieved that he had a way to call off their engagement without his family giving him a hard time because of it.”

  She stayed quiet for some time, looking at the busy street below. “So Noah is the mysterious guy you’ve been seeing these days?” She brought her gaze to me.

  “Yes.” My lips formed a big smile. “He’s amazing, Angie. I feel great when I’m with him.”

  “And does he know about Maya?”

  “No. Not yet. And that’s what I was thinking about. Everything is going so well between Noah and me. So I think it would be a good thing to tell Noah about his daughter.”

  “I have to say I’m amazed that you found Maya’s father.”

  “Tell me about it.”

  “It’s wonderful that you managed to find a way to be together. And I think he should know about Maya no matter what happens between you two. Maya needs her father, and I’m sure he would be more than happy to hear about his daughter. Also, this means that you don’t have to be a single mom anymore.”

  I chipped away at my nail polish. “Are you sure he will accept Maya?”

  She chuckled. “Of course, I am. I mean, the guy is obviously so into you. He even broke up with his fiancée. So that’s a good sign.” Her face turned serious. “Either way, you should tell him. Even if what you two have is temporary, you shouldn’t hide Maya from him.”

  “I know. It’s just that you know how proud I can be. I wasn’t sure at all if I should tell him about Maya or not.”

  “I know very well how proud and stubborn you can be, but don’t think about yourself now. Think about Maya. That kid and her father deserve to know the truth. You’re her mother, yes, but I don’t think you have the right to hide the truth from them.”

  I sighed, looking at Maya who could be very well miles away from here with the way she was glued to the TV screen. Angie was right. Even if Noah and I weren’t together, it wouldn’t be right to hide her from Noah. Telling the truth was the right thing to do.

  “You’re right. I wanted to tell him about Maya this morning, but he had to go earlier to his work, so I didn’t have the time to tell him. I’ll tell him the next time I see him.”

  “Good. The sooner you do that, the better.” She grinned at me. “And then maybe I can finally meet this guy.”

  I rolled my eyes. “He’s hot, as you already know, and no—he doesn’t have a brother.”

  Her smile transformed into a loud laughter. “I didn’t even think about that. I don’t need anyone’s brother anymore, because I already found my ‘Mr. Right’.”

  I raised my eyebrows at her. “Is that the last guy you told me about?”

  “Yes. Nick. And he’s more than amazing. I don’t know how I’ve lived my life without him.”

  “Oh, you’re always so dramatic.”

  “Someone has to be. But jokes aside, he’s a great guy.”

  “I’m so happy for you, sis. I would like to meet him too.”

  She snapped her fingers. “Now, I have an idea! We can go on a double date!”

  My phone rang in the living room, and I just agreed with her before I went inside to answer the call. My stomach jumped with excitement when I saw Noah’s number on the screen, and I mouthed to Angie that it was him.

  “Go get him, sis!” she told me, raising her thumbs up at me. I just rolled my eyes in response and went to my bedroom before I answered the call.

  “Hi,” I told him, my pulse picking up.

  “Hey, beautiful. How’s your day?”

  “Pretty uneventful, especially if we compare it to yours.”

  “If you call endless boring meetings eventful, then yeah, my day was beyond eventful.”

  I chuckled. “I miss you.”

  “I miss you too, baby. I wanted to take you out and then to my place, but I have an urgent meeting that will end pretty late.”

  “That’s okay. I understand.”

  “But I want to take you to a special place for a weekend.”

  “Really?” My raised voice revealed all my elation.

  “Yep. So pack a few things.”

  A permanent smile was etched on my face. “Now that sounds mysterious. Where are you taking me?”

  “To a cabin resort in the mountains. You’ll see. It’s going to be fun.”

  “If by fun you mean stripping off our clothes and fucking like crazy.”

  His raspy chuckle made my pussy throb. “Absolutely,” he answered in a slightly hoarse voice. “There is going to be a lot of fucking involved.”

  And I just couldn’t wait.

  Jessica and I arrived at the mountain resort this morning and went hiking, planning to set up camp. We followed the trails that led far into the mountain, talking about our previous hiking experiences around the world. Jessica was taking photos every once in a while, mesmerized by the natural beauty that surrounded us.

  I was spellbound by her enthusiasm and cheerful mood, her smile creating a pleasant ache deep in me. I was falling for her, and I was falling hard.

  I just couldn’t look away from her, caught by the beauty of the light reflecting against her fiery red hair or her girlish smile and shiny eyes when she looked at me with joy. Her sexy curves taunted me as she went ahead of me, her perky ass inviting me to take her right in the middle of the hiking path.

  And most importantly, I felt freer than ever.

  My blood hummed with adrenaline, pushing my body forward as we explored valleys and streams. I had missed this a lot. So many times I’d wanted to run out of my office and explore places like this, eager to escape the confines of my life. Now that I was here with Jessica I felt more than alive, and it was like a drug.

  We set up camp around noon and spent hours chilling at the clearing that had a good view of the valley beneath it. Despite the constant chirp of the birds and sounds of insects, it was rather quiet and peaceful, which was nice for a change.

  I was supposed to feel tired after all that walking from our cabin
to here, but I felt full of energy. Maybe it had something to do with the fact that Jessica made me feel so alive. Her company erased all the pressure and exhaustion that came with work.

  We lay down on a blanket next to each other and observed the clear sky in comfortable silence. The wind blew softly in the distance, creating a relaxing tune.

  “I love this place,” she said after some time, looking at the sky with a small smile on her face. “It’s so peaceful. I could actually live here.”

  “Maybe one day you can live in a place like this.”

  “That would be amazing. When I was a teenager, I considered myself a city girl, but then I started traveling and I realized there was nothing better than being close to nature. It really does something to a person.”

  “That’s true. It feels like there are zero problems in the world.”

  She turned her head to look at me, her smile growing bigger. “Yes. Exactly. Everything is so simple.”

  “Everything is simple when I’m with you.” I touched her cheek with the back of my hand. She was so beautiful. “I feel like I can do anything when I’m with you. I’m invincible.” I leaned in to kiss her forehead, then the top of her nose, then her soft lips that I wanted to bite, kiss, suck… “I’m not sure what you’re doing to me, but I don’t want you to ever stop.”

  With a grin, she pushed me to my back and came on top of me. “Oh, I won’t stop. I won’t stop at all.”

  She cupped my face and pressed her lips on mine. My hands went to her hips immediately, my cock becoming fully rigid in three seconds flat. She ground against me slowly, her small body rocking on mine like she owned me—like she possessed every inch of me—and it felt so good.

  I flipped us over so that I was above her and brought my lips to her tits. She didn’t wear a bra, taunting me all this time whenever her nipples would harden. I had an erection halfway to this place. Now I could finally indulge myself in her body. I sucked her perky nipple into my mouth over her shirt, palming her pussy.

  Even through her tights, I could sense how hot and wet she was. “You’re so wet for me, and I didn’t even touch you.” I stroked her beautiful pussy over her clothes, eliciting moans from her that got louder with each stroke of my fingers.

  Her hands clenched my shirt, her curvy body shuddering like she hadn’t come in ages. She needed this. She needed her release badly.

  “You want me to rub your pussy? You want me to dip my fingers into your wetness?”

  “Yes. Touch me.” She pushed her hips upward, signaling me to give her what she needed.

  I was quick to remove her tights and panties, my mouth watering at the sight of her shaven pussy. She was such a delight. Her juices were pouring out of her, and when I inserted one digit into her, it went inside all too easily, her slick walls wrapping around it greedily.

  “You like it, baby? You like my finger inside of you?”

  She shuddered in response, her pussy clenching around my finger like a vise. “Yes. And I want more.”

  I added two more fingers inside and took her bulging clitoris into my mouth. Her scent was arousing.

  “Ah, yes. Keep sucking my clit, honey. That’s it. Ah…”

  I fingered her slowly at first, then fast, then slowly again, all the while sucking her like a fucking dessert she was.

  My cock was starting to ache with how much I wanted her. I pushed my hand into my boxers and grabbed it. I stroked it slowly, taking my time pleasuring her. I could feel the pleasure building in her, more quickly with each second, and it felt so good being able to give her this. I raised my eyes to look at her twisted face, in awe at how beautiful she looked like this—all flushed and tense.

  “Yes… I’m gonna come. I’m gonna come any moment…” I could feel it. Her body grew tenser and tenser, and then she was screaming, her hands pushing my head into her mound as she orgasmed. Her juices splashed my face, her scent becoming stronger, and I couldn’t wait any longer.

  Sitting on my haunches, I pulled her into my lap and plunged my cock into her. Her pussy was still spasming, enclosing around me like a fist, and I knew I wasn’t going to last long. I thrust into her once, twice, thrice, and I emptied my balls inside of her, roaring as the mind-numbing orgasm took over me.

  * * *

  “Come here,” I told her when we arrived to our room in the evening and pulled her to the enclosed balcony with a hot tub, which was ready to be used because I’d given the instructions to the staff earlier to prepare it for us.

  We stripped off our clothes and entered the hot tub. Jessica remarked that the balcony had a beautiful view of the cabin complex in the distance, but I didn’t care about the view at all. Not if it didn’t include Jessica’s hot body in it.

  I made her straddle my lap and latched onto one of her nipples, wanting to worship every inch of her sexy body. She arched her back with a moan, her nails digging into my shoulders almost to the point of pain. I didn’t mind it. In fact, it only turned me on more, giving me a raging hard-on.

  “Yes. That’s it. Rub that pussy against my cock. Come on.” She moved faster, her vulva spreading open to take my cock in between as she slid up and down.

  “This feels so good. I love your hard cock.”

  “And I love your tight, little pussy. I’m going to pound you so hard, sweetheart. I’m going to bury myself up to my balls in you and fuck you harder than ever before.”

  She moaned and ground against me faster, her breathing getting quicker. I took her nipple into my mouth and rolled my tongue over it, my cock throbbing harder underneath her.

  “That’s it, baby. Use my cock. Use it all you want.”

  She moved her hips faster and faster, her moans louder, and I leaned away to observe her face. She was wild, taking all she needed from me, and it was sexy as hell. Unable to resist, I brought my thumb to her clit and rubbed it, watching her face as she came closer to her climax.

  She bit her lip, her frown getting deeper. “Yes. Oh God, Noah, I’m going to come, and it’s going to be so good…”

  I moved my thumb faster, and she came with a loud moan, her eyes going to the back of her head at the peak of her pleasure.

  Fuck me. I couldn’t even wait until it finished, thrusting into her right in the middle of her release.

  “Ah!” She screamed, clawing at my back. “Noah!”

  “You’re so fucking sexy. You have no clue what you’re doing to me. Fuck!”

  I roared, all my muscles tense as I rammed into her. She took all of me, spasming around me continuously, sucking me in. The water splashed around us, its sound getting louder along with our moans. She was incredibly tight and hot inside.

  “You like when I fuck you like this? When I fill your little pussy with my hard cock?” I moved faster, pressing my fingers into her ample ass. My eyes were fixed on her boobs that were bouncing with each move, making me even harder.

  “Yes. Oh, Noah… Ah!” Another scream ripped through the air, her body shuddering harder. I was getting closer and closer to my release, feeling like it was going to be the most intense yet. She was so tight, and I pushed into her harder, high on her.

  “I’m cumming! Ah fuck.”

  Biting into her shoulder, I buried myself to the hilt and exploded. The pleasure was overwhelming, coursing through me in continuous waves, and as I ejected my load into her greedy pussy, I wished this weekend would never end.

  After our passionate moment in the hot tub, we spent the rest of our evening watching action movies in the room and eating snacks. I was leaning against his chest, his arms around me keeping me safe, and I felt like I could burst from happiness.

  The whole day had been memorable and fun, our time outside carving into my mind and about to stay there forever. It was refreshing being able to be myself and explore the world with the person who understood my need for unconventional activities.

  Unlike many guys I had met, Noah wasn’t just some accountant
or company manager who was content with living a plain life or treating any extreme activity as nothing more than a way to lose your head. I could never explain what it was about hiking or mountain climbing—or any extreme sport for that matter—that reminded me of how much of a rush life could actually be.

  Just like me, Noah wasn’t content with the ordinary. Tomorrow, we were going to visit local caves and go parachuting, and it was all I could think about. I wanted to experience everything with him.

  It was around midnight when the movie finished, but instead of playing another one, Noah turned off the TV and threw the remote aside, his lips landing on the back of my neck. His tongue went out to meet my skin and skimmed over my neck, giving me shivers.

  Moaning, I rolled my head to the front and moved my hand to his already hard cock. I slid my hand underneath the covers and palmed him, relishing in the feel of his extra thick member under my fingers.

  “Baby.” He hissed, his dick twitching in my hand. I collected a bead of precum from his tip with my thumb and brought it to my mouth, looking at him over my shoulder as I tasted it. “Jesus. You’re so hot.”

  “Mmm, you taste so good. I think I want more.”

  He moaned, his cock jerking uncontrollably, and I slid my tongue all over his tip. More juices poured out of him, and I collected all of it in one big swipe of my tongue, my gaze locked on him. His other hand was fisting the covers, his hips rolling around as he grew more worked up.

  “Baby, that’s so good.” He groaned, his fingers tightening in my hair. “Yes.”

  I sucked him faster, taking as much of him as I could inside my mouth, but he was so big. My pussy was pulsating in need, and it felt like a big hole in me waiting to be filled.

  “Touch yourself,” he ordered me, his eyes pure fire. I pressed my fingers into my mound and went over my enlarged clitoris and labia before I massaged myself in slow circles, building the pressure deep down in my stomach. “So good. Baby, you’re amazing.”
