Midnight Call (Siren Publishing Ménage Amour) (14 page)

“What are you doing, Greg?” Nadia asked, looking around.

“Come here.”

“What? What’s going on?” she said with a confused look on her face.

Greg unbuckled her seat belt and lifted her until she straddled his lap, resting her pussy against his aroused cock. Nadia’s eyes widened, but she didn’t complain, just moaned when he ground up against her.

“You have no idea how much I want you right now. Damn, honey. You going toe-to-toe with your dad over me had to be one of the sexiest things I have ever seen. I can’t wait till we get home. I want you right now.”

“Then have me.”

That was all the permission Greg needed before he attacked her mouth. He did what he had wanted to do all night and trailed his hand down her back. When he got to the edge of her dress, he rubbed his fingers back and forth across the top of her bottom until Nadia squirmed. When he continued lower, he froze.

“Fuck me, baby. You aren’t wearing any panties.”

Nadia laughed. “This dress isn’t really made to wear any.”

“Oh, Jesus. You are killing me.” Greg groaned as he lifted the bottom of her dress and got a glimpse of her trimmed pussy. After getting his belt unbuckled, he lifted his hips and lowered his pants until his cock was free. He lifted Nadia a little so he could grip his cock and then ran the tip across her wet folds making sure to hit her clit each time.

“Come on, honey. Sit on my cock. I want you to ride me.”

The pleasure consumed him as Nadia lowered herself until she was flush against his lap. Greg shuddered at the sensation of the tight grip her pussy had on him. He had to clench his teeth to keep from yelling out as Nadia began to move up and down. He didn’t look away from her eyes the whole time and realized he was close to the edge. That seemed to be a common occurrence when he was with Nadia, but he didn’t care. The sex was intense, to say the least.

“I’m close. Touch yourself, honey. Let me see you play with this beautiful pussy.”

Nadia didn’t hesitate to reach down and start circling her clit. When her moans got louder and her rhythm began to get erratic, Greg gripped her hips to hold her still and began surging into her cunt. He felt the moment Nadia went over the edge because she squeezed him tight. That was all he could stand, and he came right along with her.

Greg rested his head on Nadia’s shoulder and kissed her neck as her pussy continued to milk him. When his cock finally slipped free, Nadia moved back over to her seat. Greg was sad to lose her warmth. If he could have driven home with her in his lap, he would have.

“Now would be a good time for panties,” Nadia said, grimacing as she held her dress around her waist.

It took Greg a minute to figure out what she was talking about then he laughed and handed her a few napkins out of his glove box. He waited until Nadia had finished cleaning herself up to start the car.

“Best date ever,” he murmured to himself as he headed home.

“Finally,” Robert said when he heard his cell ringing. It seemed like he had been waiting for the call forever. Paranoid didn’t even begin to describe how he had felt the last few days. Ever since he’d found out he was being followed by Mr. Porello’s men, he was seeing them everywhere. At this point, they weren’t even trying to stay hidden either. They wanted him scared, and they were definitely doing a good job of it.

“Please tell me you have some good news,” he said desperately.

“Have the goods at the old warehouse on Ninth Street by 10 p.m. the day after tomorrow. If you are late, I leave. If you are followed, I leave. If I see anything out of the ordinary, I leave.”

The call ended abruptly, and Robert was left staring at his phone. He had basically two days to do the impossible. God, he hated Sarah. If she weren’t dead, he would kill her for getting him into this mess. If she hadn’t been so selfish and left him high and dry, he would have never even had to contemplate stealing his own baby. He had no doubt the little brat was his either. He hadn’t gotten the best look at the baby when he trailed it to the park. He didn’t even know if it was a boy or a girl, but the red hair he was able to see was a dead giveaway. He would have tried to get a closer look, but whoever the woman was with the little brat seemed to target him the moment he entered the park.

Robert wasn’t sure what it was about himself that gave him away, but he could see the woman’s hackles rise when she spotted him across the park. He wasted no time getting out of there. He didn’t want her to be able to recognize him in the future.

His first task now was figuring out a way to get the baby out of the house. For four days he had been watching the house and had only seen the baby taken out once, and that was to be taken to the emergency room. Robert had thought about stealing the baby that night, worried he wasn’t going to get another chance, but he’d decided against it. He hadn’t had a buyer lined up yet, and there was no way he was taking care of the little brat until he found one, so he waited. Now, the wait was over. He had no choice but to take the baby.

He silently thanked Officer Stanley for finding the buyer so quickly. He was running out of time, and Mr. Porello was definitely letting him know the clock was ticking. Not only did Robert have to put up with the goons following him, but he also had to put up with little notes everywhere he went letting him know how much time he had left. If he hadn’t already believed the rumors that Mr. Porello was a very dangerous man, he would have been convinced of it now.

If he played his cards right, Robert would never have to meet the man. Meeting the buyer in two days time was a little too close to his deadline, but if all went well, that would leave him a whole day to get the money to Mr. Porello. Of course, Robert had no intentions of waiting until the last minute. As soon as the money was in his hands, he was heading straight to pay the man.

Now that he had the place and the time, Robert just needed the perfect opportunity to grab the baby. He quickly got dressed and headed back to Sarah’s brother’s house. He didn’t want to miss any opportunity. The first chance he got he was taking it.

The knock on the door woke Steve up bright and early. Not that he had gotten much sleep anyway. He had been up all night tossing and turning, thinking about what had happened the day before between him, Nadia, and Greg. Was it possible to fall instantly in love with someone you’d just met? That was what he’d contemplated all night, and if he was honest with himself, the answer was yes. Somehow Nadia had wormed her way into his heart, and Steve had no clue what to do about it. What if he was the only one that felt that way? What if he wasn’t? What if this whole foursome was just something Nadia was doing for fun? All these questions rumbled through his head all night long. Surprisingly, the one question that never came up was whether they could make this relationship work. Thinking back to yesterday, he realized he’d never once felt uncomfortable or out of place with Greg there beside him. It was actually a turn-on to know he had someone there helping him pleasure their woman, and that was how he saw Nadia, not his, but theirs.

Grumbling, Steve rolled out of bed. He recognized the knock and knew, if he kept his mom waiting any longer, he would never hear the end of it. He smiled to himself. His mom had just returned from a two-week cruise the night before and couldn’t stand being away from her “boys,” as she called them, a minute longer. She had no idea what was going on with Jackson’s sister and Addison.

Boy, is she in for a surprise.

It had been his idea not to tell his mom about everything that had happened. The cruise had been a Christmas gift from him, Greg, and Steve, and she had only been gone for a few days when Jackson’s sister died. Steve knew if he called and told her what happened she would have found a way off the ship even though she had been in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. Once his mother was determined to do something, there was no stopping her.

“Hi, Mom,” he said as he opened the door. His mom had tons of bags in her hands, and he immediately grabbed them and helped her inside. “Did you have fun on your trip?”

“Oh, I had a great time, but I’m glad to finally be home. I missed my boys.” She gave him a tight hug when he set the bags down.

If she noticed he squeezed her a little tighter and held on a little longer than normal, she wasn’t complaining. Steve didn’t care how that made him look. He wasn’t ashamed to admit he had missed her.

“Where are Greg and Jackson? Are they still sleeping? Go wake them up while I get breakfast started, and then we can talk. I will tell you all about my trip.” His mom didn’t wait for an answer, just turned and headed straight for the kitchen.

Steve followed and watched as she pulled everything she needed from the refrigerator. “You need to make enough for another person. We have a guest, and we have some news we need to share with you as well.”

She was getting pots and pans out of the cabinets. The banging instantly stopped, and he knew he had his mom’s attention. Laughing, he headed down the hall to wake the guys and Nadia. He knew he only had a few minutes before the suspense got to his mom and she tracked them down.

After waking Greg and Jackson, Steve peeked in Nadia’s room but saw that her bed was empty. He went to Addison’s room and found Nadia changing and cleaning the baby. He stood at the door and watched her for a moment. Nadia was beautiful, and it wasn’t just her looks. He loved her personality. The way she was caring, compassionate, and just down to earth. She knew exactly what to say to him to pull him out of his shell. No other woman had ever been able to do that. When she looked up at him and smiled, his heart began to beat so hard he was sure she could see it beating against his chest. That one look answered the question that he had lain awake all night asking. Yes, he was in love with Nadia.

“Hey. Who was at the door?” she asked, breaking him out of his thoughts.

Was it too soon to tell her how he felt? “My mom,” he answered instead.

“Your mom? Oh my God, Steve. Why didn’t you tell me sooner she was coming? Look at me. I need a shower, and my hair is probably a mess. Here, take Addison. I need to go get cleaned up.” Nadia held the baby out to him.

Steve laughed and pulled them both into a hug. “Don’t worry. You look great, and my mom will love you. What’s not to like? Besides, she doesn’t know about Addison yet, so I’m pretty sure once she finds out she has a granddaughter, all her attention will be on the baby.”

“Are you sure? I mean I would love to meet your mom. I just figured I would have time to prepare for it.”

“I’m sure. Now come on. If anything, my mom is determined, and she is not a woman to be kept waiting. She will track us down if she has to.” Steve smiled and led Nadia down the hall.

He could hear his mom talking and knew Greg and Jackson had already made it to the kitchen. When he turned the corner, her back was to them as she stirred something on the stove. Nadia handed the baby to Jackson and then stepped back into Steve’s arms. He beamed with pride that she felt comfortable enough to stand in his arms as she was introduced to his mother.

Addison chose that moment to let out a squeal, demanding to be fed. Steve watched as his mom turned and gasped in shock at what she saw. He laughed because, for the first time in as long as he could remember, his mom was speechless. Jackson stood and walked over to her and took the spoon from her hand.

“Mrs. Dalaney, this is Addison, my sister’s baby. Well—” Jackson stopped and took a deep breath. “She’s mine now. My sister didn’t make it.”

Steve’s heart clenched at the pain in Jackson’s voice. He couldn’t see his friend’s face because his back was to him, but whatever his mom saw had her grabbing Jackson and pulling him into a tight hug. Jackson buried his face in her neck, and Steve could tell from the way his shoulder shook he was crying. Steve was truly grateful his mother was there at that moment. She was exactly what Jackson needed to help him grieve, and he was happily willing to share his mom. “I’m so sorry for you, baby. I know how much you missed your sister and wondered what had happened to her.” She rubbed Jackson’s back. She held him like that until he finally sniffed and pulled away.

“Now, let me see this baby.” She gently lifted Addison from his arms. “Oh my. She is so tiny. You are so adorable. I can’t wait to show you off. Everyone is going to be so jealous of my new grandbaby.”

Steve smiled as he watched his mom with Addison. He had no doubt she would accept the baby as her own. He had a feeling Addison was going to be one spoiled baby by the time his mom got done with her.

Clearing his throat to get his mom’s attention, he led Nadia over to her. “Mom, this is Nadia. We hired her to be Addison’s nanny.” He would have rather introduced her as the woman he was in love with, but he didn’t think Nadia was ready to hear that just yet. “She lives here with us.”

“Hi, ma’am.” Nadia waved.

Steve watched and held his breath as his mom gave Nadia a once-over. His mom had a way of determining if she liked someone or not within the first few seconds of meeting them. Her judgment was usually right nine times out of ten. When she pasted a huge grin on her face and pulled Nadia in for a hug, Steve let out the breath he had been holding. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Greg and Jackson had done the same thing. It seemed he wasn’t the only one who wanted his mom to like Nadia.

“It’s nice to meet you, honey. You are just gorgeous. Isn’t she gorgeous, boys? Come on. Sit down and tell me all about yourself. The boys can finish breakfast while I get to know you and my new granddaughter.” She didn’t wait for an answer as she led Nadia and Addison into the living room.
