My Ward My Woman(19)

“I will care for the child of course, but as for marriage or anything else between you and I, that’s never going to happen. As to your child being my heir, the jury’s still out on that.” My chest swelled with so much pride and love in that moment I could’ve ran into the room and kissed his feet. But Jessica wasn’t finished.

“What do you mean? Of course we’re getting married. I refuse to bring a child into this world without marriage. Think how that would look to our peers. Why I’d be the laugh of the town.”

“I don’t love you. I think you know me well enough to know I won’t do anything I don’t want to, no matter who thinks what.”

“We’ll just see about that. What do you plan to do? Are you going to marry your ward?” I held my breath as she laughed. “Yes.” My eyes opened wide and my head snapped up in shock. My mouth formed the word ‘what’ but no sound came.

“You can’t be serious.”

“Very. She’s the woman I love. I guess you suspected as much, that’s why you made all those comments coming on to the end when you and I were still together. Well now you know.”

“It can’t be, you…what would people say? What about your friends? What about the business? Do you think anyone will stand for this? It would be a scandal…”

“You know better than that.”

“If you do this, I will be forced to abort this child.”

My mouth fell open in sick shock. The room was silent for the longest time after her threat and I held my breath in fear of what he would do next. I felt lost; she’d won. No way was Solomon going to let her destroy his baby. I turned and walked away before I could hear what else was being said. What was the use? I’m sure she’d said the one thing that was bound to bring him to heel.

Tears clouded my vision as I struggled down the hallway and up the stairs to my room, and threw myself down on the bed in agony. My heart was in a million pieces as I cried into my pillow.

I guess I always knew he wouldn’t be mine; he was too perfect. I was the daughter of a drug addict who’d sold herself to get high. Whatever made me think that I would find lasting happiness with someone like him?

All these horrible things went through my head as I imagined how he’d break the news to me that he had to let me go for the sake of his child. I was tempted to run before that happened, but my promise to him that I would never put him through that again kept me there. Waiting instead for him to come and destroy my whole world.

Solomon





I looked at the woman in front of me and did everything I could to keep my hands from going around her neck. “It’s your body of course, you’re free to do as you choose.” I could see my answer wasn’t the one she was expecting.

“What’re you saying? That you don’t care what happens to your own flesh and blood?” My expression didn’t change and neither did my stance. “If you think for one second that I would let you dictate my life you’ve lost your fucking mind.”

“Dictate your life? We’re talking about your child, a part of you. How could you be so callous?”

“You threatened, I answered. I’ve told you in no uncertain terms that I will not destroy my life for you, and marrying you will most certainly be destructive. I will not marry out of necessity. There will only be one Mrs. Solomon Magna in this lifetime and she’s it.” I pointed up to where I supposed Alexandra had gone.

“This is…” She clutched at her chest and her breathing became short and raspy. “Should I call an ambulance?” If she was a better actress she would’ve learned how to hide the spite in her eyes. It was because I knew her so well that I knew to always watch her eyes if I wanted to know the truth.

She straightened up as I headed for the phone as if to call for help. “No need, just a slight pain, it will pass.” Yes, use the child you just threatened, to get me to bend to your will.

“You made your play, time to go.” I held my hand out for her to leave the room, none of the burning anger showing in my movements.

She left the room in a huff and I waited until I heard the front door slam before picking up the phone to call my lawyer.

“Harry, I need you to get an injunction against someone.”

“Who and what for?”

“Jessica Paine, she plans to abort my kid I want her stopped. You have until tomorrow.” I hung up and went in search of Alexandra. I wasn’t sure yet how I felt about my unborn child but I knew I wasn’t about to stand by and let her destroy it.

Maybe I should start proceedings to take the child after it was born. She obviously had no uses for it except to trap me into marriage which she now knew wasn’t going to happen.

I gave it some thought as I went in search of my woman who wasn’t waiting for me by the door like I’d expected. I can only imagine what was going through her head. I wasn’t about to let that ass spoil another day though.

“Alexandra, where are you my love?” I took the stairs two at a time and went to our room. She wasn’t there and a check of the bathroom came up empty. “Alexandra.” I heard something as I passed her old room and looked in.

“What are you doing in here? Mom’s waiting, come on.” She picked her head up and I saw that she’d been crying. Her constant tears told me that words were not enough, with her only actions would do. Good girl! Words only give comfort to fools.

“Are we still going?” She sniffled and wiped the last of the tears from her cheeks.

“Of course, we promised.”

“But I thought…”

“You thought what sweetheart?”

I picked her up from the bed and headed for the stairs. I carry her around now more than I did when she was a child, my baby.

“Never mind.” She rested her head on my shoulder and wrapped her arms tighter around my neck.

“You thought that since Jessica was here I would change our plans. I told you, that’s not going to happen. Have a little faith.”



Dinner at mom’s helped settle her a little and by the time we left she was smiling again. That night our loving was sweet, soft, tender. Instead of the hurried pounding lust we usually shared, I took my time and undressed her, stopping after each bit of flesh was revealed to pay homage to her beauty.

She responded just as beautifully to my ministrations as she ever did. “Play with my cock while I suck your nipples.” Her hand came down beneath me where I was lying over her with my arms holding me up.

At the first touch of her warm palm on my hot flesh I licked her nipple until it beaded, before taking it fully into my mouth. Her hand tugged at my cock until it grew harder, longer and I pressed her nipple to the roof of my mouth before dropping it for its twin.

“Release me.” Her hand felt too fucking good and I wasn’t ready to cum yet. When both her nipples were hard and red from my teeth, I licked my way down her center to her pussy. The scent was already in my nose and my tongue came away wet with the first touch.

“I’m going to make you cum in my mouth first before I fuck you.” Her pussy was already in need from the nipple play and my teasing her clit with my fingers while driving my tongue into her pussy set her off immediately.

I love the way she grabs my head and pulls me harder into her cunt. That’s when I know that it’s my cock she needs. That the place deep inside her where only my cock can reach is ready to feel me.

Tonight, though, there was no rush. I ate her pussy to two more orgasms until I’d had my fill of her sweet pussy juice and my cock was no longer willing to wait to be fed. “Watch me pierce you.” She lifted her head and looked down between her spread pale thighs where my cock was nosing around the entrance to her pussy.

I watched her as she watched me as I slid my cock torturously slow into her until I hit bottom. “Umph.” Her eyes flew to mine, the power of my thrust startling her after the tender care with which I’d been treating her thus far.

I took her hands in mine and pressed them down on the bed as I pulled out and surged back in, each time going to the door of her womb. My strokes were slow, steady, but each one went deep. I wanted her to feel me even when I wasn’t in her. To feel the pain from me fucking her too deep even when we were done here. If she can feel me like that, then maybe she won’t forget that I was hers as much as she was mine.

“This is mine, you are mine. Only death can make me give this up. I raised you, fed you, clothed you; sheltered you. You’ve always belonged to me in one way or another since you came to me, and you’ll always be mine until you draw your last breath. No matter what she said to you before I came, she will never take your place in my heart. Nor will her child. Your child will be my heir.”

Her pussy tightened and her body arched off the bed as she came. Still I didn’t speed up, I wasn’t done showing her. I’d seen the tears and although I’d ignored them, I hadn’t forgotten. After tonight I didn’t want her to ever doubt again.

I released one of her hands, the one closet to my pillow. “Reach under the pillow babydoll.” She was confused at first but did as I asked. Her eyes flew to mine when she felt what I’d hidden there. “Give it to me.” She removed the ring and held it out to me with a trembling hand.
