  With a cocked brow, Pam looked up from the page she was signing with a priceless disbelieving expression. “Though that’s also true, it doesn’t make things any less messed up.”

  She was right. Past me was incredibly messed up, and the fact that present me was aware and ashamed of it was a massive evidence of how far I had come. Although I was embarrassed about a good chunk of things that happened during my brief marriage to Pam, the love I felt for Jessica and my personal growth made me feel nothing but pride.

  I nodded my agreement, and with a meaningful smile, Pam went back to signing the papers. We finished our divorce quickly and in a very comfortable and friendly silence. Once we were done and all the pages were neatly stacked on my coffee table, I looked at my now ex-wife and smiled. “That’s it, then? We’re divorced.”

  She nodded and said, “Seems a bit anticlimactic, doesn’t it?”

  “A bit, but it’s real. For the first time in our marriage, we have something that’s real, and that’s climatic enough. Plus, we’re finally free to have those amazing, life-changing moments with the people we actually love, and I know you and Jacques are as eager to start your lives together as Jess and I are.”

  “True again.” Pam pulled in a deep breath as she stared at me with real admiration for the very first time. After a few seconds, she shook her head and said, “Look at you, all changed and mature. Your dad would be proud.”

  I couldn’t help but smile knowing she was right.

  When I finally arrived back home, I was eager to see Jess. That was nothing new since I was always anxious to see her, but tonight was special. Tonight, I had in my hands the key to our freedom and three huge bags of designer gifts meant to spoil her and make her look even more beautiful than she already was as we went out on our very first carefree public date.

  “Hi, Geoffrey,” I greeted my butler as he opened the front door for me. “Did you confirm everything for me tonight?”

  With a nod, he replied, “Yes, sir.”

  “Good. Thank you. Now, where’s Jessica?”

  He took my briefcase and car keys as he replied. “She’s upstairs, sir. Arrived about two hours ago and went straight upstairs—didn’t even want the pizza we had ready for her. She hasn’t come out of the room since then.”

  I frowned at Jessica’s odd behavior. She always called me whenever she came home early, and she never refused a meal. I nodded at the information and rushed up the stairs. My heart was beating ridiculously fast when I finally opened the door to our room.

  My frown deepened as I walked inside and saw Jessica sitting at the very center of our bed with her legs crossed and her head hanging low. She looked worried and tense, but I guess that was to be expected considering the events of today.

  “I hear you refused pizza today,” I said trying to lighten the mood as I approached her.

  Her beautiful green eyes returned to me, and though they were crinkled at the corners the spark of love and excitement that always grazed her eyes as she looked at me was still there. My heart beat slowed just slightly at the sight of it, knowing that whatever was up with her wasn’t that serious.

  “Geoffrey and his big mouth,” she teased with a roll of eyes. “But, in my defense, I overheard him confirming a dinner reservation and didn’t want to spoil dinner.”

  Now, it was my time to roll my eyes and curse the butler’s big mouth. Jessica laughed as I sat beside her on our bed.

  “Well, now that the cat is out of the bag, yes, we’re going out to celebrate. And this is the reason why,” I said and placed the envelope containing my copy of the divorce on her lap.

  Jessica’s eyes widened, and her smile doubled in size as she pulled the papers out and read them. “You’re a single man?”

  Her question made me laugh as I replied, “Well, no. I’m divorced, but not at all single. I’m very much taken by you.” She looked sweetly at me, and I gave her a quick peck on the cheek before adding, “So now that I can finally take my girl out of the house and flaunt her to the world to see, I went shopping for a few nice and sexy things for you.”

  I placed the bags at her feet, but instead of digging into them as I thought she would, Jessica simply bit her lips for a second and looked at me with eyes that were filled with emotion. “This is funny because I got something for you too.”

  “Do you?” I asked with a raised brow.

  Jessica nodded and reached inside her purse for a small, rectangular box tied with a bow. After a sigh, she placed it on my thigh. Confused and intrigued, I tilted my head sideways and carefully undid the bow. I could almost feel her eyes on me as I pulled the lid open and got my first glimpse at my gift.

  To be completely honest, it wasn’t something I expected or even thought I’d ever want. Still, for some reason, it filled me with a type of joy that was hard to explain.

  With broad and tearful eyes, I looked from the word pregnant written on the tiny display of the plastic stick nested inside the box to the beautiful face of the woman I loved and felt my lips curl into an uncomfortabe smile. “You’re pregnant?”

  “Yeah, three weeks,” Jessica said with a slight nod of her head. “That’s why I’ve been puking so much. Are you mad?”

  My brows pulled together in disbelief. How Jess could ever think that I’d be mad about something that was part of her beat the shit out of me, but I was too happy to admonish her over it. Instead, I embraced the unexpectedness of her news and changed my plans to fit this wonderful moment.

  “Of course, I’m not mad, baby,” I said honestly as I took one of her hands in mine. “I’m surprised as shit, but in a happy way. I’ve never saw myself having children, but I had also never imagined myself as a boyfriend, and you’ve changed that. You’ve made me want to be more. So, I’ll be a father to our baby and, hopefully, a husband to you.”

  Jessica gasped and brought a hand to cover her parted lips. Her green eyes stayed focused in mine as I reached inside my jacket pocket and removed the red box I had been carrying around all day. Slowly, I opened it to reveal the square cut diamond ring inside.

  With the happiest and most nervous smile of my life, I said, “I’ve spent my life making plans. I knew where I was going and what I was doing. Until you. I’ve never planned on you stealing my heart as you did, but I’m glad. You’ve given me a better life than I had ever hoped and thought I had big plans for how I would ask you this question, I don’t care about my plans anymore. All I care is that this unexpected life with you is the most perfect thing I’ve never known I wanted. So, baby, marry me and make me the happiest and luckiest Daddy in the world.”

  Tears filled and spilled from Jessica’s eyes as she stared at me silently for a few agonizing moments. Then, she draped her arms around my neck and kissed me.

  Once our mouths finally parted, I pressed my forehead against hers and asked, “Was that a yes?”

  “No,” she said softly and with a wicked smile. Just as a frown started to form between my brows, she added, “It was an absolutely.”

  Relieved and finally feeling like life was complete, I slipped the ring on her slender finger and kissed my girl with all the wonder and happiness she brought to my life. As we kissed, I couldn’t help but think back on the damned letter that started this whole thing. Now that I had the company and the girl, I realized that dad was right. My life really was as I had always dreamed it, only better.

  Bonus Scene – Ben

  “Happy birthday, Sir.”

  I smiled at my secretary and placed the paper plate I was carrying over her desk. “Thanks, Lisa. I brought this for you,” I said with gratitude. She had gone through all the trouble of organizing the little birthday party my staff threw me at the end of this morning’s staff meeting, and I felt bad she wasn’t there to enjoy the delicious cake she had ordered for us. “It was a very nice surprise.”

  She looked fr
om the thick slice of chocolate and pistachio cake to my face and smiled. Broad smiles like the one gracing her face were hard to come by, and seeing one was always a treat. Despite her serious and professional demeanor, I knew she enjoyed working for me just as much as I enjoyed having her as my assistant.

  “It was my pleasure, sir,” she replied honestly. Knowing my secretary as well as I did, I knew there was something she was not telling me, but I didn’t press her for information.

  Jessica had surprised me with a wonderful and sexy wake-up call this morning. As always, the sex had been mind-blowing and the best birthday gift I could ever hope for, but she had spoiled me, and I wanted more. I wanted a whole day with my baby girl, but unfortunately, she had classes, and I had meetings. Responsibility was a bitch, but I knew there was no way around it and therefore until my day was done and I was finally able to go home and see my girl, texts and phone calls would have to suffice.

  With a warm smile and a nod at Lisa, I turned and started walking toward my office, hoping to use the last few moments of Jessica’s lunch hour to talk to my girl.

  The first thing I noticed when I opened my office’s door, was that my chair was not where I had left it. Instead of facing my desk, as usual, it was facing the window. A party hat with swirls of primal colors was peeking from the chair’s high back and golden balloons with my new age were placed on either side of my desk. My brows pulled together with amusement and curiosity, and I cleared my throat to announce my presence.

  Slowly, my chair turned, and my heart raced at the sight of Jessica sitting there in a tan trench coat. As always, she looked gorgeous with just a few touches of makeup and her hair made up in soft, sexy curls, and my body quickly responded to her presence.

  “Surprise!” she belted, throwing her arms up in the air for added effect.

  With a grin so wide my cheeks hurt, I shut the door behind me and pulled down the blinds covering the glass panel. As soon as our privacy was assured, I started walking toward her and, in a mesmerized tone, asked, “What are you doing here, baby?”

  Jessica shrugged as she got up from the chair. Fishnets and a sexy pair of black pumps became visible as she sashayed her way towards me. “You told me this morning that the only gift you wanted was more of me, so here I am.”

  As those words left her mouth, Jessica reached for the belt holding her coat closed and slowly undid it. My tongue peeked from behind my teeth as I watched her work the garment open. When the black and red corset she was wearing underneath finally became visible, my heart nearly stopped beating—no doubt because all the blood in my body had been relocated to my cock.

  A low and throaty groan echoed from my chest as my girl finally stopped in front of me and flicked the coat off her shoulders. Once she was standing in nothing more than the sexiest lingerie I had ever seen, she placed her hands on my shoulders and brought her mouth flush with mine.

  “Do you think I did a good job wrapping your gift?”

  I brought my hands to her lace covered waist and nibbled on her plump bottom lip. “You did a phenomenal job, baby. The paper hat is a special touch.”

  Jess giggled and glided her hands to my necktie. “I thought you’d appreciate the festiveness of it. Besides, I got the one with the extra thick elastic that can double as a restraining device if you decide to be adventurous on your birthday.”

  My rock-hard cock twitched once more with desire and excitement. Ever since I first laid eyes on Jessica, I dreamt about fucking her in my office and knowing that I was about to make that fantasy come true made this, without a single doubt, the best birthday of my life.

  “Today is all about you, daddy,” she continued while removing my suit jacket and shirt. She looked up at me from under her thick lashes with those wide and sexy eyes. “I want you to take me and fuck me in whatever way you want and as many times as you desire. I’m completely at your command. Whatever you order, I’ll obey.”

  Hearing those words come out of my baby’s mouth nearly made me come right then and there. As a man who loved control, there was nothing sexier than a gorgeous woman submitting herself to my wishes, and there was no woman as gorgeous as my Jessica.

  Quickly falling into that familiar place of sexual power, I flattened a palm at the small of her back and tugged her closer until my hard cock was poking at her soft belly. Her eyes fluttered and her mouth parted with a gasp that gave me the perfect amount of space to delve my tongue into her mouth and deepen our kiss.

  Jessica was responsive as always and tightened her arms around me as her tongue danced with mine. She pressed her body closer to mine and ran her long nails across the skin of my back. The feeling was intense and hot and, as a result, the desire growing inside me became something almost unbearable.

  Hungry with the need to enjoy my present, I fisted her hair and tugged her head backward, so our lips disconnected. “Ready to begin?”

  With an excited gleam in her eyes, Jess nodded her head in reply. A wolfish smirk curled on my lips as I released her hair and guided her by the hand toward the window. Ever since I masturbated while overlooking the city and thinking of Jessica, I had fantasized about repeating that orgasm but with her mouth doing all the work, and that was exactly what I wanted to start things off with.

  Once we came to a stop beside my chair, I kicked off my shoes and ordered, “Take off my pants.”

  Biting her lips, Jess quickly reached for my belt. With impressive dexterity, she removed it and proceeded to remove my pants and underwear until I stood completely naked in front of her. Unable to help herself, he looked down at my erect cock and licked her lips.

  My smile widened as I leaned against my desk and said, “Go ahead, baby. Have a taste.”

  An excited giggle bubbled up from Jessica’s throat as she sank down to her knees and grabbed my hips. Looking up at me, she leaned her face towards my crotch and rubbed every inch of her face against my length before finally taking it into her mouth.

  My eyes fluttered, and my lips parted as Jessica glided her warm, wet mouth from the head all the way to the base. Her tongue swirled around each new inch that pierced her and the suction her cheeks created had me groaning with delight. I could feel the tip of my cock touch the back of her throat, but she made no move to quickly pull away. Instead, she just kept me there, buried to the hilt inside her mouth, for a few seconds before she slowly pulled me out.

  Her teeth grazed the soft skin of my cock in a way that flirted with that delicate line between pleasure and pain. It was beyond exciting and made me long even more for all the fun we would have together.

  I looked out into the city, and the mirrored skyscrapers and relaxed as Jessica repeated the routine over and over again. Each time she welcomed my cock into her mouth, I pushed myself a little faster, and a little deeper—something I honestly didn’t think was possible—and within seconds my eyes were closing, and I was in fucking heaven.

  With my hand clasped in her hair, I looked down at her and continued to guide her head back and forth. I groaned her name as the build-up of pleasure started to consume every ounce of me and was rewarded with smiles and moans of delight. Our eyes connected as my balls tightened and my cock began to pulse with my approaching orgasm.

  “Fuck, Jess . . . I’m gonna come,” I moaned as a warning, wanting to give a chance the pull me out if she wanted to. But she didn’t. She never did. If there was one thing Jessica enjoyed as much as sex was the taste of my seed, and after two more pumps of my mouth I filled her mouth with the warm jets of my pleasure.

  As I knew she would, Jessica drank every last drop and then licked her lips to make sure there were no leftovers. It was the sexiest sight I’d ever seen, and it prevented my cock from growing soft for even a second.

  Hard and ready for more, I reached down to grab Jessica by the arms and pulled her up to her feet with a brusque move that made her yelp and giggle. Those sounds were quickly silenced by another hard kiss. While our lips moved together, I reached behind her back and undid the
clasps holding her corset together. As alluring as the garment was, I wanted unlimited access to my gift—well, almost unlimited access, I decided to keep the thigh-high fishnets, pumps, and party hat. After all, they were too sexy to go without.

  Once the corset hit the ground and her gorgeous tits hung loose for my enjoyment, I placed a line of soft kisses down her jaw and neck until my mouth finally reached her rosy nipples. A loud moan echoed through the room as I worked the pebbled flesh between my tongue and teeth.

  Jessica’s nails dug into my skin again as my hands started to drift and pleasure her skin. I teased the sensitive skin of her neck, the side of her breasts, her ribs, hips, and finally reached the two most coveted parts of her body: her pussy and ass. While one of my hands grabbed the perfect roundness of her butt, the other reached for her dripping folds with tentative touches.

  “Always so fucking wet,” I groaned against her nipple as I started pleasuring all three of her sensitive spots.

  Jessica’s eyes closed and she moaned as my tongue continued to circle her nipple and my fingers teased her clit, opening, and ass. The more I played with her, the heavier her breaths became and deeper her nails dug into my skin. Her juices dripped down my hand, making me almost insane with desire to taste her.

  Refusing to deny myself any part of my favorite gift, I pulled my hands away from Jess’ pussy and ass to grab her curvy hips. As I knew she would, she protested against the separation, but I only smiled, knowing she would enjoy what I had in mind.
