His lips traveled down my chest, creating a burning ache in my pelvis that needed to be released.
“Bryan,” I whispered.
“You’re so beautiful like this,” he said as he kissed my stomach. “So beautiful carrying my child.”
His hands were tugging at my pajama pants as they slid down my legs. I could feel his lips kissing the insides of my thighs as he spread me for him. My mind was swirling with thoughts of Anna and Drew and how perfect they were for one another. My mind darted back to the man in the gallery and how his threats had scared me to my core. I could feel Bryan’s tongue lapping at my body, growing dangerously close to the area I wanted him most.
I had no choice but to pay the man off. It was the easiest route, and it was the one that stood the greatest chance of getting him to go away. I had no idea where I was going to come up with the money, but I figured a good place to start was with selling my own paintings.
If it came down to it, I could borrow against the gallery and pay it back later.
“You taste divine,” Bryan said.
I could feel his tongue tracing my throbbing entrance as a moan escaped my lips.
Yes. I was going to pay this guy off. If only so I could concentrate on the beautiful man between my thighs.
“I love you, Bryan,” I whispered.
“And, oh, how I love you, Hailey.”
Chapter 11
Bryan
I woke up the next morning with my body tangled up with Hailey’s. Our naked movie day had turned into a lovely feast, and I could still taste her tantalizing flavors on my tongue. Her body was marked with my love for her with love bites and nibbled marks and bruises ingrained on her hips. Hailey was snoozing next to me, her soft breaths encompassing my neck as I turned toward her.
It was time for both of us to get up and get ready for work.
“Sweetheart?” I asked.
She groaned and shifted, and her sounds tugged a smile upon my lips.
“Hailey, it’s time to get up.”
“No,” she said. “I don’t wanna.”
“Come on. You’ve got more interviews to conduct today,” I said.
“No, I don’t.”
“But you should be. So you can take days like this off,” I said.
“You drive a hard argument,” she said as her eyes opened.
“Morning, beautiful.”
“Yeah, yeah. Morning to you too.”
She sat up in bed, her beautifully-growing bosom hanging against her body.
“Holy hell, you’re beautiful.”
I leaned forward and pressed a kiss to her neck before I scooted out of bed.
“What do you have planned today?” Hailey asked.
“Gotta go check on that foundation site. I’m going to make a pit stop to make sure my hurt worker’s okay, and then I’m going to have lunch with Drew before I make it 55to the foundation today.”
