I chuckle. “No, she won’t. She’ll be back in the evening.”

A frown creases her forehead. “How do you know that?”

“She gave me the all-clear to come and get my woman. And she promised to stay out of the way until we patch things up. She knows her daughter can be stubborn.” I laugh when Hailey punches me playfully. “Her words, not mine.”

“No wonder she was acting weird earlier. I thought she had a boyfriend she didn’t want to tell me about.”

I laugh. “I can’t wait to meet her. She sounded so nice on the phone even though I broke her daughter’s heart. Though I do intend to mend it with everything I’ve got, starting with showing you how much I’ve missed you.”

“Then stop talking and get to it.”

Without further prompting, I unzip my trousers and free my throbbing cock. Hailey pulls down her slacks and steps out of them. Cupping her butt cheeks, I lift her, and she wraps her legs around my waist. Slowly, I thrust into her wet core.

“Oh, Gareth. I’ve missed you so much.”

“Me too, baby. Me too.”

I take her slowly at first, but then I increase the tempo as I hear her whimper. I love the feel of her pussy encasing my dick, and I know I will last. Still thrusting into her, I carry her to the living room, where we end up on the carpeted floor before the fireplace. I fuck her until we both find our release, and I crumble to the floor beside her.

Breathing heavily, I plant kisses all over her face while she giggles.

“Now that we’ve gotten that out of the way, I’m starving. I was too nervous to eat before I flew down here.”

Laughter bursts from her throat. “You might be a superb cook, but you can’t beat me when it comes to baking.”

“I’ll leave that to you because I know nothing about baking.”

When I’m done eating the delicious apple pie she made, accompanied by a cup of cocoa and marshmallows, she takes me to her room, where I make slow and passionate love to her.

By the time her mom returns home in the evening, Hailey and I have made plans to return to New York, and we even called Amber to tell her the good news. A few minutes later, Melissa, Hailey’s younger sister, comes in with a twinkle in her honey-brown eyes. She’s a younger version of Hailey and chirpy, while her mom is the older version and gracious.

“Mom, Melissa, meet Gareth Payne, my boyfriend. Although I wouldn’t call him a boy,” Hailey introduces me with pride and joy.

We all erupt in laughter. I put my arm around Hailey’s shoulder as her mom and younger sister welcome me to the family.

EPILOGUE

HAILEY

Ayear later

“Ouch!”

“Are you alright?” My husband is beside me in an instant.

“Yeah. Your son thinks my womb is a football field. He kicked me again.”

Gareth grins. “Maybe he’s trying to tell you to stop working and relax.”

I give him a ‘don’t start again’ look, and he bursts into laughter before resuming his cooking. I stare at my laptop and shift awkwardly at the table. I’m thirty weeks pregnant, and I’m getting more and more uncomfortable sitting on a chair. Maybe Gareth is right. Perhaps I should stop working for now and relax. After all, it isn’t as if I must work.

Gareth and I tied the knot six months ago, even though he wanted it sooner. Given the situation, I didn’t want to return and work for him. I loved it when we worked together, but it would have been too awkward, given all the drama with Linda and Hunter.

Sometimes, when I visit his office, I still feel that some of his employees think I’m using him for his money, but I don’t care. I love Gareth, and we have a happy marriage. Alex loves that we got together after sensing the chemistry between us. He claims to have silently rooted for us. Jackie is engaged and happy for us. I never heard from Susan again. Rumor has it that she left New York and went back to Missouri. I couldn’t care less about the backstabber.

When I refused to return to Payne Technologies as his cyber security expert and wanted to do my own thing, Gareth agreed. With his help and business acumen, I now own a cyber-security firm. It’s still growing, but we’ve made even. Being a tech billionaire’s wife and having a successful election project under my belt helped the business boom. I’m now working on a data security program for an exclusive art gallery.

“I’m hooommee,” Amber sings as she walks into the kitchen. “Hmm. What’s cooking? Something smells delicious.” She smiles brightly when she sees her dad standing by the stove. “Great! Dad’s cooking.”
