The Russian Billionaire’s Secret(73)
“I haven't had a boyfriend since college. I have been on a few dates, but it's really just me,” she told him, and she listened to Archer tell her all about himself as they ate their meal together.
It was comfortable, it was sweet, and when he left that night, she invited him over for dinner again in a couple weeks.
Chapter 6
Falling In Love
They'd been texting, talking via email and over the phone the last few weeks. Her pregnancy was progressing smoothly, and the baby was healthy.
The two of them got along well and enjoyed each other's company; Archer had decided that today was the day. He was going to seduce her. He wanted more from her than just friendship, and she was the kind of woman you didn't just let pass you on by. He just had to convince her it wasn't a mistake.
Shareena was slightly resistant to pursuing a romantic relationship with him, wanting to be able to stay friends and was worried romance or sex would make it difficult down the road to raise their child together if they broke up.
He was stopping by today, and they were supposed to talk about it and come up with a parenting agreement together to figure out how to do this. They'd talked with lawyers, and talked about child support and what he wanted to cover.
It had been very amicable, but Shareena still felt odd about the whole situation. She liked Archer, he'd even told her he hadn't seen any other women since he found out she was pregnant and it was his.
The doorbell rang and she walked over and unlocked it, letting him in. He had a single white rose for her and she took it from him smiling.
“Thank you,” she said, startled by the flower and went into the kitchen to put it into a glass.
Archer followed her and waited until she was done setting it on the counter before he made his move.
“Shareena,” he said as he backed her up against the counter and put a hand on either side of her so she couldn't escape. “I need to test something. I promise if you hate it, I'll stop, but I need to know.”
Shareena felt he was being very cryptic and should have recognized the signs of what he was about to do, but she hadn't flirted with a man in such a long time, she missed the signals.
He kissed her. His lips slanted over hers, soft at first, then becoming more demanding. She gasped and when her lips parted he thrust his tongue between them and dominated the kiss.
She wrapped her arms around his neck and forgot everything but the way he felt. She pressed her chest and growing belly against him and could feel her heart beating quickly. She was nervous, excited, having him close stirred feelings in her that left her wanting more.
“Shareena, I want you. I don't want to hurt the baby, but I want to make love you,” Archer whispered against her neck as he nibbled on her skin.
“Okay.” She nodded at him, and then pressed herself harder against him. The whole situation was already an odd one, maybe, just maybe, they could find love in this, if they let themselves. She was willing to take the chance.
“Are you sure? I don't want you to feel pressured or do anything you don't want to,” Archer told her and pulled back for a minute to look at her, searching her face with his gaze.
Shareena reached up and touched his cheek with her hand, “Archer, I wouldn't say yes if I wasn't sure. I like you, I'm pregnant with your child. I'm worried. I won't lie, but there's a chance here to make this work beyond just friendship. I'm willing to risk that because I have feelings for you that are more than just friendship.”
Archer scooped her into his arms, careful to walk through her house to carry her to the master bedroom. He kicked open her door and set her down on the double bed inside her room. He leaned over her, with one knee on the bed and pressed kisses to her face before finally settling his lips against her mouth.
“Move in with me,” Archer whispered after a few minutes. “If we really want to give this a real shot, I want you to live with me. I want to be there for you, I don't want to miss the little stuff.”
“Okay, but shut up and kiss me now?” Shareena said chuckling and pulled his head down to meet her own.
Archer didn't need any more encouragement. He worked on the buttons of his shirt while kissing her, then worked on the buttons of her shirt as he pulled it open, exposing her bra and slightly round pregnant belly. He unhooked the front clasp of her bra, releasing her heavy swollen breasts and started massaging them gently.
“You're body is absolutely beautiful. I can already see the swelling changes in them over the last few weeks and I find it fascinating,” he whispered as he worked his way down and pressed kisses all over her flesh and tender nipples.
“Mmmm, It's been so long since I've been with anyone. I don't really want you to take your time. We can do it again later, but right now, I just want you inside me,” Shareena told him, tugging at his hair to pull his head back up so she could kiss him again.
Archer moved off her long enough to unzip his pants and drop the rest of his clothes on the ground, he leaned over and helped her out of her skirt and underwear, and rolled her socks off her feet, leaving them in a pile.
Shareena scooted up the bed until she was leaning against the pillows on the top of the blanket and stared at him. He was just standing there looking at her with a look of amazement on his face.
“You are beautiful, I know a screw up is entirely responsible for us meeting, but I don't regret it for a minute,” he told her and then crawled on the bed and laid next to her so he wouldn't squish her belly. He kissed her again, letting his hands roam all over her body. Moving them down between her legs he started to rub against her clit with his thumb and index finger until she was closer to an orgasm. Her hips sliding around on the bed as she wiggled in encouragement.
