Nobody's Girl: A Billionaire Romance Novel

by Michelle Love

  I run my hand over it and swear I can still feel his teeth as they clamped down on me. The electric current is back, though he’s not anywhere near me.

  My hands flow over my neck, down the front of my body, and stop at where he’s kissed me and stroked me until I orgasmed. The first two of my life and Laura wants me to run away from him. I can’t.

  I dress, put my hair in a ponytail, and go out to let my best friend know that, crazy or not, I can’t leave him. She has a bag packed and is sitting on my bed, looking at her phone, texting someone.

  “Hey, Laura, I’ve been thinking, and I can’t go.”

  She looks up at me. “You can go. You need to go. This is not mentally healthy for you, Ally. Let me and Kyle take care of you for a little while. If you still think you love him, then we’ll understand. We’ll bring you back if after a few days you still want him.”

  A few days away from Eden sounds like hell to me. “No, I won’t go. I love him. I know you don’t understand how this can happen so fast, but it has. I love you for trying so hard to help me, but I don’t need any help. Maybe if you see us together you’d understand.”

  As if on cue, he walks in my bedroom door. A smile on his face, he looks at me, then quickly over at Laura. He smiles at her and walks to her. “Nice to see you again, Laura.”

  He holds out his hand and she places hers in his. He takes it, lifts it to his lips, and leaves a kiss on top of it.

  A smile covers her face and she looks directly into his eyes and says, “Oh, aren’t you smooth.”

  He lets her hand go and looks over at me. “Is something wrong?” he asks.

  “She thinks I’m crazy,” I answer.

  With a low chuckle, he says, “Does she now?”

  Laura crosses her arms over her chest. “I do, and I blame you for it. What have you done to my best friend? This whole family has gone berserk since you came to visit. I think it best if Ally got away from you and her parents for a few days. She needs to get her head back on straight, and the influence of all of you won’t help her accomplish that.”

  Eden moves to me, putting his arm around my waist. “Her head is on straight for the first time in years. Isn’t that right, baby?”

  I look up at him and smile. “I think so. I’ve never been so sure about anything in my life.”

  Laura looks at me like I’m nuts. “Ally, just come away with me for a few days. I promise I’ll bring you back as soon as you want.”

  Eden looks at me. “Is that something you want to do? Because you can, if you want. I’ll never hold you back from anything, princess.”

  My eyes search his and I know in an instant that I don’t want to leave him and run away for even a minute. “It’s not what I want,” I say, and hear Laura huff.

  She throws her arms up and says, “God! Go ruin your young lives. Get married way too young, end up divorced with three kids by the time you’re twenty-five, and then come crying to me that you wrecked your life over lust.”

  Eden kisses the top of my head. “Is that all we have, Alyssa?”

  I shake my head. “It’s love, Laura. Believe it or not, that’s what it is.”

  Laura’s eyes are shiny with unshed tears and I find it disturbing. I go to her and hold out my arms to hug her. She comes into them and I feel her shaking.

  “Why are you so afraid, Laura?” I ask.

  “Because I’m losing you, Ally. You’re leaving us all behind for this guy. Since the day of your accident, I’ve felt your absence. No phone calls or texts. Nothing. You’ve been so wrapped up in him. There are other people who care about you. Kyle, me, and even Cody have been missing you. Now you’re getting married and I’m assuming you’ll move away. You’ll forget about us and go live some fantasy life.”

  Crap! Now she has me crying.

  “I won’t forget about you. I promise, Laura. We’ll be friends forever. Eden and I haven’t even talked about where we’ll live. No matter where it is, though, you can come visit me and I’ll come visit you. You’ll see, it won’t be as bad as you think.”

  “What are your plans for today, Laura,” Eden asks.

  I let her go and grab a couple of tissues from my nightstand. I hand her one while I dab at my tears with the other. She looks at me for a few seconds before she looks at Eden.

  “Since I’m not taking Ally anywhere, my plans are nothing.”

  “I wonder if you might like to join us for the weekend,” Eden says. “I’m taking Alyssa to New Orleans to meet my parents. Her family is coming, so you might want to come along too. I’d like to get to know you, and I’m sure seeing where I’ll be taking Alyssa to live will give you some comfort.”

  “I wouldn’t want to impose,” Laura says as she looks at me.

  “Would it be an imposition, Eden?” I ask.

  He laughs. “There are thirty-three bedrooms, so I don’t think you’ll be any imposition.”

  “Thirty-three!” Laura and I say in awe.

  “I guess I never thought about you living in a mansion, but of course you do,” I say.

  “What do you think, Ally?” she asks.

  I hug her, and whisper in her ear, “Go get your things packed. You’re coming with me.”

  She giggles and I let her go. On her way out of the bedroom, she stops in front of Eden. Her arms wrap around him in a hug. “Thank you, Eden. You can’t know how much this means to me,” she says, then leaves the room.

  My heart swells with love for him as I saunter over to him and throw my arms around his neck. “You are amazing. Do you know that?”

  He touches his forehead to mine. “She loves you and you love her. I’m not trying to take anyone from you, princess. I only want you to add me in.”

  Damn it, he’s sweet!

  Will he always be this way? Will my life with him always be like a fantasy, almost too good to be true?

  CHAPTER 23

  KYLE

  “What do you mean you’re going with them?” I ask Laura as I sit on her bed and watch her pack.

  “Eden invited me and I said yes. He has a mansion and I’d like to see where Ally will be living,” Laura answers.

  “So he’s taking her to meet the parents. I can’t believe Al’s marrying him on her birthday. Do you know she and I were supposed to leave for Texas on her birthday? What is it with that girl and losing her virginity on that day? I mean, come hell or high water, she’s getting laid on her birthday.”

  “Kyle! You shouldn’t talk about her like that. You know how over-protective her parents have been. She’s about to burst, I’m sure. Add that hot guy to the equation and she’s most likely having hot flashes waiting to get a taste of him.” Laura says.

  “I can’t believe you’re talking like that right in front of me,” I say as I hold her by her shoulders, making her stop packing for a minute to realize who it is she’s talking to. “So are you into this guy now too?”

  A blush covers her cheeks. “Me! Oh, he’s Ally’s, Kyle. Don’t be silly.”

  Suddenly, I’m pissed. “Laura, I’m trying to make this look like it’s easy for me to hand her over to that guy, but it isn’t. It’s killing me. If I thought you were falling for him too, it might send me over the edge.”

  Laura looks me in the eyes. Hers are a light blue, very similar to mine. Her hair is a lighter blonde than mine, long and shiny. She has it up in a ponytail and I have the sudden urge to pull it down so I can watch it fall across her shoulders.

  “Kyle, what do you mean by that?” her voice is but a whisper.

  “I mean, I don’t want you to go with them. Stay here with me,” I say, and can’t believe what I’m doing.

  Slowly, she blinks as she takes in what I’m saying. “Kyle, why would you say that?”

  “I may have lost Ally, but I don’t want to lose you.”

  Her plump, pink lips quiver. “We’re just friends, right?”

  Are we? Isn’t that all we ever were?

  I remember a time when I was fifteen and I wanted both Laura a
nd Ally. I couldn’t make up my mind. I kissed Ally first and Cody made me believe I could never get away with kissing Laura too, to find out which one I liked best. He told me they’d both end up hating me.

  Ally is moving on, leaving me behind, and Laura, too, really, no matter if she’s letting her go for a weekend to the palace or whatever Prince Steals Your Girlfriend lives in. We will all be left behind while Ally becomes the princess that dude always tells her she is.

  I lick my lips as I look from hers to her eyes. “Are we?” I ask.

  Her eyes dart to my lips. “I’m Ally’s best friend. I can’t be anything more than your friend.”

  I swallow hard. What am I doing? Am I really making a move on my barely ex-girlfriend’s best friend?

  I’m sitting on her bed and she’s standing in front of me. I slide my hands down her shoulders to her waist and pull her in between my legs.

  “She’s left me. Set me free. Truth be told, Laura, I don’t want to be free. I want to be tied to someone. I don’t like loose ends. I like them attached to someone. If I may confess something to you, I want you to know that when I was fifteen, I wasn’t sure which one of you two I liked the most.” I pause so she can breathe, because she seems to have stopped. I pull her in a little closer. “It was Ally who I kissed first. Cody made me believe if I ever tried to kiss you, so I could find out which one of you I really liked, I would lose you both.”

  Her hand caresses my cheek and I melt into it. It feels so good. “I had a crush on you that I hadn’t told Ally about. When she told me you kissed her, I just about smacked her. I wanted you, but I kept my mouth shut.”

  She wanted me too! I knew it!

  “Here I am, Laura. I’m free and so are you.”

  “She’ll be hurt,” Laura says, and for a second, my heart hurts in a new way. It’s been hurting since Ally’s accident, then she broke up with me and it hurt even worse. This pain is different. It’s a hurt which promises to heal all that’s wrong.

  I take her chin in my hand, gently pulling her to me. “She’ll be gone.”

  Her lips touch mine and I am gone. I’ve wanted to do this for so many years and it seems she has to. Without letting our lips part, I stand and pick her up, turning around. I lay her on the bed.

  I press my tongue to her lips and she parts them for me. She tastes like strawberries and suddenly I crave them. Our tongues dance together as my heartbeats increase.

  Why does this feel so right?

  I pull my mouth from hers and she opens her eyes. They’re wide with what looks like fear. She probably thinks I feel guilty and want to stop, but she’s wrong.

  “Tell me you want this, Laura. Tell me you’ll be mine.”

  Her breaths are ragged and her voice is quiet. “Is that what you really want, Kyle?”

  Is it? I think it is, but how can I be sure? Am I using her as a rebound?

  Without knowing for sure, I answer, “It is. Say you’ll be mine, Laura.”

  Her brows furrow with worry and she bites at her bottom lip. I kiss her again to make her decide. As I plunge my tongue into her mouth again, I pull out the rubber band holding her hair in a ponytail.

  I groan as I run my hand through her long, silky hair. It smells like flowers, so different from Ally’s.

  The thought of Ally makes me stop my kiss. I look down at Laura and have to consider her feelings.

  Am I only doing this to hurt Ally?

  Laura’s eyes are soft and a smile forms on her pink lips as she says, “I’ll be yours, Kyle.”

  My heart stops beating. She’ll be mine, but can I truly be hers with Ally still so much in my head and my heart?

  Her hands tangle in my hair and pull me back to her. This time she kisses me. Her tongue darts into my mouth. Something about how she’s kissing me, like she’s letting herself go, makes me want her more than I have.

  How far will she let me go?

  My hand creeps slowly to her breast and cups it. She puts her hand over mine and moves it with mine, showing me how she likes to be touched. It spurs me on to try more.

  I sit up, straddling her, and smile down at her as I lift my T-shirt over my head. Her shirt has buttons, so I unbutton them slowly as I watch her to be sure she wants this. The look of pure lust on her face tells me she does.

  I know she’s not a virgin, but I am, and she knows it. Her hands run over my abs. They’re pretty decent, if I do say so myself. As are her breasts, which I’d like to see bare.

  I lean down and reach behind her to unfasten her bra To my surprise, she lets me. I pull it off, revealing a pair of large, pert breasts any man would be proud to touch.

  “May I?” I ask before I devour them.

  “Please do.”

  I pull one of the erect nipples into my mouth as I cup the other one with my hand. Never having gotten this far before, my erection is at full attention. I don’t know how I’ll be able to stop, but she seems like she’s fine with that, so I forge ahead.

  Her hands flow over my back, which now has a thin sheen of sweat covering it. Her breasts are so perfect, I can’t believe I never noticed them completely before this. She tastes like heaven and I wonder what else she’ll let me do.

  I move my mouth from her breast to kiss a trail down to the top of her shorts. I look up at her to be sure she’s okay with this and her smile assures me she is.

  I pop the button on them and unzip them. Pulling at the sides, she shimmies to help me get her out of them, leaving me looking at blue silk panties.

  “How about these? Can they go too?” I ask.

  Her nod gives the approval and I’m very happy with the answer.

  Dear God, I’m finally going to get laid!

  I stand to kick off my shoes and drop my jeans and underwear. I take a long look at her completely naked body, which she has not an ounce of embarrassment about.

  Not that there’s any need for it. She’s built like a brick house. Curves in all the right places and flat in the areas she should be. A perfect body she’s hidden all these years.

  “Christ, you’re beautiful, Laura.”

  “I can say the same about you, Kyle,” she says as she motions to my male member, which is giving her a standing ovation.

  I’ve forgotten I’m standing buck naked in front of a girl for the first time in my life. Suddenly I feel shy, and I’m pretty damn sure I’m blushing. Lying next to her, I kiss her again, trying to forget my embarrassment.

  “Are you sure you want to do this?” I ask.

  She wets her lips and gives me a nod. Her eyes are dark and her lips red and a bit swollen from our kissing. I can’t believe I’m doing this. As I move my body over hers, she spreads her legs for me to settle into. I can feel the heat radiating from her.

  “Now,” she says, “I’m more than ready for you.”

  My God! Am I really going to do this? Am I going to lose my virginity to Ally’s best friend? Could I back out now?

  “Are you sure?” I ask one more time.

  Laura’s hands grab my ass and she pushes me into her. “Fuck me, Kyle. Fuck me now,” she growls.

  What have I gotten myself into?

  The moment I’m all the way in, I lose all train of thought. It feels so fucking good. I pull out all the way and thrust back in. Her breath pushes out with the force.

  “Too hard?” I stop and ask.

  “No! Jesus, Kyle, just keep going until you can’t anymore!” Laura shouts as she grabs my ass and pushes me into her even deeper.

  The sensation takes me over and I do what she says, pushing in and pulling out as her hands run over my back and up into my hair. She pulls my face down to kiss her, and I do, but find I can’t concentrate on the thrusting, so I pull my head back.

  She runs her hands over her breasts and down to her clit. I watch from my raised position, bobbing my dick in and out of her. Her finger touches something at the top and she rubs it as she moans.

  “I’m about to come, Kyle. Come with me.”

  “I don’t
know how.”

  “Watch my finger and fuck me harder,” she says as she licks her other fingers, then moves the one she’d been using to stroke herself to allow the newly wetted finger to flow over her now very swollen and very red pearl-shaped bud.

  I stroke faster and harder while watching her touch herself. Then I feel her tighten around my dick as she moans and pushes her body up to meet mine.

  It’s so tight and squeezes so hard that I explode into her. All strength gone, I practically fall on top of her. Her arms go around me as my dick pulses inside her and her vagina makes small squeezes around it, making more fluid flow from it.

  So this is what all the fuss is about. Yeah, I can see why now!

  And then there’s Ally’s sweet face in my damn brain and I know I’ve just sealed my fate with her. She’ll never get over this.

  What have I done?

  CHAPTER 24

  LAURA

  What have I done?

  Kyle naps beside me as I lie here filled with guilt and shame. I just took his virginity and not in a very nice way.

  It’s been a few months since I’ve had sex. I guess I was a little hornier than I realized, because I talked like a real slut. It’s not how Kyle should’ve been introduced to sex.

  He’s sweet and caring and I know he was loving with Ally. But I took him like he was just another guy. I ruined his first time. It should have been with her, not me.

  And now he’s here with me and says he wants us to be together. I’m going to look like a real ass at school. Everyone will gossip. ‘Would you look at her? Ally’s barely broken up with him and Laura swoops in and picks him up. What a whore,’ they’ll all say. And I have to agree.

  What’s wrong with me? And how am I going to tell Ally?

  I have to call her and tell her I’m not going to New Orleans with them. She’ll ask why and I’ll say, ‘Beause Kyle and I are together now. I fucked his brains out and he doesn’t want me to leave.’

  Yeah, that’ll go over real well!

  Great, my cell’s ringing and I bet it’s her. I slide off the bed, still naked as the day I was born, and find my phone in the pocket of the shorts Kyle pulled off me only an hour or so ago.
