Pregnant To The Navy Seal
By Lisa Cartwright
Chapter One
Carol couldn’t help but to check over her apartment one more time, biting her bottom lip as she looked around. There was nothing out of place. She made sure the dishes were done. She made sure the floors were swept. All pillows were fluffed. Everything was put where it needed to be. She smiled a little, but she couldn’t help but to be nervous. It wasn’t like her stepbrother came home often. Navy seals are always busy.
She sighed, biting her bottom lip. She ran the lotion over her smooth bare legs, making sure they signed. Readjusting her corset, she made sure to tighten it just a little more with the mini skirt flaring out in just the right way. She smiled at the green and how it makes her eyes pop. She applied another coat of mascara. I hope he likes it. She thought, smoothing her curves a little. She loved the way it pushed out her breasts and made her hips just a little bigger.
Her long legs looked even longer in the short skirt and high heels. It didn’t matter how many heads she turned. None mattered except Nathan’s. Their relationship had to be kept a secret, but it was more real to her than anything she had with anyone else. She sighed contently, making sure that she had all the ingredients for tonight’s dinner, but she waited there for him to come. She knew it wouldn’t be long. He was never late. It just wasn’t in him.
Nathan wanted to curse at the taxi driver to go faster, but he knew the traffic wouldn’t lighten up. He could only hope that luck would be on his side this time as well. It usually is. He thought to himself, amused. His stepsister, Carol, always seemed to think it was on purpose, but often his promptness was simply luck.
It seemed like his luck was just right this time as well. He arrived at six on the dot. The sun was low in the sky, and he knew it wouldn’t be long before it set. He didn’t bother to call her and tell her was there. He knew she was waiting. The elevator couldn’t move quick enough as he went up to the fifth floor of the apartment building, making his way quickly to room 409.
With the key in his hand he went in, finding her just applying another coat of lipstick in the mirror. She caught sight of him right behind her, and she stopped dead, blushing a little as she put the cap on and turned. Nathan kicked the door closed behind him, opening his arms to her as she ran to him. His large, rough hands gripped the sides of her waist as he picked her up in a hug, placing a light kiss on her neck. She couldn’t help but to blush just a little before he unwrapped his arms.
“You haven’t changed a bit, love. Look at that outfit on you. Always one for flare, hmm?” He teased her in that deep voice of his, and she couldn’t help but to giggle some.
“Of course, and you’ve always liked it, so why not wear a new outfit when you get back?” She asked, dragging her hand down her side to emphasize.
“Yes, you’re wonderful. So thoughtful.” He said, and in an annoying brotherly fashion he ruffled her hair, making her groan a little before she started to smooth it out again.
“C’mon. I tried hard.” She said, pouting, and he just chuckled a little more.
“Oh don’t pout. I just got home, and I won’t be here long.” He said, and Carol nodded a little. She knew all too well how soon he’d be gone, but she tried to push the thoughts away.
“I can start dinner. I didn’t want to start until I knew you were here. I was so worried it’d get cold.” Carol knew she was rambling, but she was so excited it was hard not to. He just laughed a little, shaking his head.
“No, Carol, no. You think I’d let you cook on our first night together?” He said, and there was a husky edge that made her look at him confused.
“You know we can’t go out.” She said, and he quirked a brow.
“Why not? This is a big city, and who says that stepsister and stepbrother cannot go to dinner? Family goes to dinner all the time.” He said with that mischievous tone of his.
“I…I suppose.” She finally said, not wanting to let him down, and he smiled.
“Isn’t this why you moved in the first place?” He said, and Carol nodded. She knew that it was, but it had been so long she felt nervous all over again. She sighed a little bit, going to grab her purse as he waited.
“So where do you want to go?” She asked, and he shrugged.
“I saw a good seafood place. I know you love salmon.” He said, and she felt a flutter in her chest.
“You remembered.” She said, and he gave her a strange look.
“Always, love. Always. No time away from you is going to make me forget about you and who you are. What you like is a part of that.” He said, and with that he started to escort her down.
It wasn’t until they were in the elevator that he allowed himself to place a chaste kiss on her lips, brushing her soft, red lips lightly. Just as the elevator opened he was once again a respectable distance away to any onlookers. She tried to fight the blush that tinged her cheeks, starting to head to her car with him.
Nathan held out his hands for the key, and she pulled them out. Switching sides, he opened the door so she could slide into the leather seat, and he smiled, getting in the driver’s side a moment later. The car hummed to life, and he just closed his eyes for a minute, enjoying the feeling.
“Now, this is going to be a fun night.” He said, and she nodded a little.
“I would hope so. It’s your first night back.” She said in a teasing tone, but there was only seriousness in the statement.
