Single Daddy In The Club (Baby Daddies 1)

I nodded slyly because she misunderstood. I’m not joining to be part of the group.

I was joining to be more than her friend.

I wanted to take up where we left off, and one thing was for sure -- I always got what I wanted. This time I wasn’t taking no for an answer to her coming back to me.

Chapter Two

Nia

I couldn’t move, thinking that he hadn’t changed, he was still the same arrogant jerk back from high school. A dangerous combination. Why did he still irritate me now as much as he did back then?

I loved him back in high school, pined for him after we graduated and then it all went wrong, I pushed him away and no matter what I couldn't take it back.

So, I did whatever anyone else would do on the rebound. I went and dated the safe option. The one that wouldn't reject me. Would forgive me for my one mistake and love me for who I am.

I had it completely wrong. We got married, but the moment I was pregnant, he just left. He said that our relationship was moving too quickly.

We were married!

The safe option turned out to be t

he worst choice.

Now, Hunter’s back with a child as a single daddy. I did see the in the press about a girl leaving her baby at the hospital after giving birth with a note saying that the baby was his. She disappeared in the middle of the night.

It was if time stood still for him; those same piercing eyes were just glaring at me. He smiled as soon as he saw that I was irritated. And as for that magnetism of his smile was still there. I hate him. No, I hate myself more for getting upset at his presence.

“Nia, stop winding yourself up. We’ve got some fresh blood in the group. You said that we needed it,” Marta’s eyes were firmly fixed on his butt as he left the hall.

I thought that since he wasn’t playing football anymore, that he would be all fat and ugly. Especially being a full-time dad. He gave up the sport to take care of her. It was admirable and annoying at the same time. If it was any other guy I would chase after him.

But it wasn't.

This was Hunter.

When I did the most stupid thing in the world; he said that he forgave me. But, he never did. Not really.

“We don’t need that blood.”

She laughed, “Chill, he said that he would bring friends.”

“And?”

“Well, seeing as he still gets under your skin. Maybe one of his friends can cool you down. I wouldn’t say no to him.”

Tiana pitched in, “You wouldn’t say no to any man.”

Why are we still talking about Hunter?

“Why do you always have to be such a bitch?” Marta snarled as she walked away. She had a point, Tiana did have a way of winding everyone up.

“She just can’t take it cause she had five babies, with five different men!”

I looked at her, thinking that she was from a different planet. One that didn’t need to be in this group. We weren’t here to judge, Marta loved men. No, Marta loved sex and she must be the most fertile woman on the planet. She explained it to the group that she’d used condoms the first time, diaphragm the second, a coil the third and I lost count after that. The safest sex for her is no sex!

She put her hand on her hips and said, “If I ever dated a man outside my race," Tiana pointed at where Hunter had just left, "He would be the lucky guy.”

Her comment annoyed me, which was another reason that the other members complained about her. She thought that she was better than everyone.
