Two Hearts And A Baby

CHAPTER SIXTEEN

Later in the day, Christina cornered Kincade in the hopes of talking about their wedding he said he never agreed to marriage.  That she and his Mother were pushing him into something he didn’t even know if he wanted.  Christina was scared she was losing him and his lifestyle she tried to explain she’d changed her mind about children, but he didn’t even blink an eye.

“Listen Christina I’m taking a break from things to focus on Gabe.  I think it’s best if we just move on because I know you don’t want children.  I’ve come to the realization that I want my son and I’d like to have more children.”

“But Kincade I already told you I’d have children if it’s your wishes.”

He shook his head, “I don’t think you will, I’ve known you long enough to know this I’m sorry Christina.  I’ve made my decision now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to go get my son.”

 Her only hope was Emily and her influence to push Kincade into the marriage and quickly.  The day finally ended and Kincade found himself pacing back and forth in his room trying to decide what to do about Faith, she’d avoided him all day.  Feeling like a caged animal he needed to get out that’s when a soft knock came on his door.  He thought it was Christina trying to talk him into a marriage.

“Go away Christina I don’t want to talk to you right now,” he shouted at the door.

“Kincade its Faith, I need to talk to you,” her soft voice spoke through the door making his body throb.

His heart leaped with joy rushing to the door he practically pulled it off the hinges getting it open to find her standing before him looking sleep ruffled.  Her hair was down in disarray, and she was wearing a peach silk robe over whatever was on underneath he was hoping it was nothing.  His mouth went dry just looking at her because he was dying of thirst for her.

“May I come in for a moment,” she hesitantly asked not exactly sure how to proceed after the gazebo.

“Yes please,” he moved to allow her to enter.

She moved past him, and he smelt the floral scent of her closing the door, so she couldn’t escape too soon.  Turning he looked at her seeing she was standing in the middle of his room looking uncomfortable yet desirable.

“How is Gabe I haven’t seen him all day,” she asked.

“He’s good I asked Joy to watch him again tonight, so you could get some more rest,” he wanted to pull her in his arms and devour her.

“Thanks,” she backed up a bit as he moved further into the room.

“What did you need to speak with me about,” he already knew but he was going to make her tell him.

“I’ve thought about it all day and I’ve decide it’s better for everyone if I leave.  I’ve got some money saved up, so I’ll be all right and my physical therapist said in a few weeks I can go back to work.  After you get back home, we can get together and talk about a visitation schedule for me with Gabe.”

The more she talked the angrier he got, “Damn it, stop,” he shouted.

She looked stunned by his sudden outburst, “What,” she demanded.

He advanced on her, “You’re not going anywhere.”

“Excuse me,” she harshly said.

“Don’t act like you didn’t hear me this all has to do with Christina and Mother’s planning my wedding.  I haven’t agreed to anything I’ve already ended things with Christina.”

“Don’t do that because of me,” she moved toward him before realizing what she was doing and stopped.

“It’s not because of you it’s for Gabe I don’t think she’ll be good with him,” he saw her hang her head.

He didn’t want her anymore good it was for Gabe as it should be, but she found herself hurting especially after the gazebo.  She didn’t hear him approach her until she felt his fingers under her chin.  Lifting her head so she was gazing in his violet eyes she saw that same raw desire, “I want you Faith right here, right now.”

With a quick jerk, she found herself pressed firmly against him while his mouth possessively took ahold of her lips.  The kiss sent the world spinning around while her body trembled as he began to untie the belt holding her silk robe together.  His one hand parted the fabric while his other cupped the back of her neck.  Tilting her head so he could deepen the kiss making her lips part allowing his tongue to dive in.  The early morning was so fast but tonight he was going to take his time and get to know every inch of her.  The hand which opened her robe moved up slowly to cup one of her lush breasts he could feel it burning into his hand through the silk.  Her n****e hardened at the touch even though fabric was between them.  His tongue moved deeper into her mouth making Faith moan then whimper as he pulled and flicked at her n****e.  He needed to feel bare flesh pushing the robe off her shoulder it pooled at their feet.  Next was the nightgown grabbing the thin straps on her shoulders he pulled them down her arms until the nightgown fell away.  This time he was going to see every inch of her naked flesh.

“I want to see every inch of you,” he moved back to look at her beautiful body.

Faith stood still while Kincade’s heated gaze set fire to her skin, “Cade,” she whispered.

He growled suddenly his hands were all over her silky skin, “My God you are so beautiful.”

“Cade, I want to feel your naked flesh too,” she moaned as his large hands cupped both her breasts.

Her legs became wobbly she almost fell to the floor if he hadn’t swept her up into his arms and carried her to the bed.  She’d seen the bed when she first came in it was a huge king with an iron frame.  The same iron material created the headboard and foot rail except the headboard was distinct in the fact it had two bars in the middle of it.  She didn’t have too much time to think about it as Kincade was taking his shirt off.  Pulling the shirt over his head displaying his chest and that wonderful golden skin she loved to touch.  He moved down to remove his pants and now he was naked.  His body was magnificent, and she couldn’t wait to touch every inch of him.  Faith moved up to the pillows stacked against the headboard while Kincade crawled up onto the bed and followed.  Her hands reached up to touch his hard chest while his mouth latched onto one of her lush breasts.  Moving his body, he had one knee between her legs while the other one was beside her left hip.  His mouth devoured first one n****e then moved to the other pulling, biting, and sucking on them making each one harden even more.

Faith moaned as she ran her hands up into his hair because the way he was above her she couldn’t reach much skin.  With one hand, bracing him above her his other hand went between her legs to touch her.  Her legs opened wider for him to have greater access without hesitation, he slipped two fingers deep inside her.  Arcing her back, she pushed her breast further into his mouth while opening wider for his thrusts.  Releasing her breast, he moved up to possess her lips in a fiery kiss that made her explode all around him in passion.  His fingers moved in the same rhythm as his tongue inside her mouth and Faith began to wiggle beneath him.

“Cade please,” she began to beg.

Only Faith could use his nickname and make him hard as a rock, “Say you want me Faith.”

“I want you,” she moaned as his fingers continued to move inside her.

“Say it right,” he harshly demanded while pushing his fingers into her hard.

“Cade, I want you,” she repeated her statement but added what he wanted.

God, he couldn’t even remember a woman who could make him this crazy in bed, “Say it again.”

“Cade, please, I want you inside me,” she harshly demanded.

“Your wish is granted,” he moved between her legs lifting her hips up a bit then thrusted into her, and she cried out his name.

“Again Faith,” he pulled out then slammed back in harder.

“Cade,” she cried out again.

He moved with slow hard thrusts that went deep while her body moved in perfect rhythm with him.  He began to bring them up slow and steady, but she was so passionate it became a sudden frenzy to reach the peak.  Her hands flung up to grip the two bars on the headboard as his thrust were harder and faster.  Moans and groans filled the air as they rode the passion to the top her body became a tight coil as the pleasure built inside her.  Her belly tightened while her breath labored as she tried to reach the pinnacle of release which would send her into sensual ecstasy.  Gripping the bars tightly she felt him move his hands up to wrap tightly around hers.  She wrapped her legs around his waist allowing him to go deeper now as he thrust, he was rubbing her throbbing nub.

“Now Faith,” he groaned, as his movements seemed to pick up even more speed.

“Cade, faster, oh yes, oh God,” her c****x hit her like a freight train.

Her body arched violently as wave after wave of fire and ecstasy washed over her entire body.  He felt her clench around him then her wetness coated his maleness, but he continued to thrust.  Within seconds, he found his own release it hit him so hard he didn’t even have time to react.

“Faith,” he cried out her name as his body stiffened then poured every ounce of his passion inside her.

Slumping down onto her because he didn’t have the strength to do anything else and knew he was probably squishing her.  Finally, he unclutched his hands from her and the headboard bars to flip himself off.  Faith released her death grip on the headboard bars also then rolled to her side.

“Faith,” he whispered.

“Don’t say anything right now Cade,” she couldn’t believe what had just happened it was so much more than in the gazebo.

Something more just happened here tonight, and she needed a few minutes to process it.  Could this be merely passionate s*x, which will burn itself out the more they do it or could it be the greatest love.

“If that’s your wish but I’m not letting you go stay the night with me,” he gathered her into his arms.

“Yes Cade,” she planted a kiss on his sweat soaked chest.

He rolled her onto her back too once again capture her lips in a passionate kiss that began the start of more, “Faith,” he moaned.

“Cade,” Faith whimpered.

Christina had come to talk to Kincade again about not breaking things off and this is what she heard outside his door now she was livid.  First, she’d talked to Faith early this morning and she swore she’d no interest in Kincade, she obviously lied.  Next Kincade said he wasn’t interested in the b***h nanny she was only here for Gabe.  In addition, Kincade refused to have s*x with her in his parent’s house because they weren’t married but here, he was f*****g the little slut.  This was not going to continue and first thing in the morning, she was leaving but first she was going to sick Emily on him.  Storming back to her room she began to pack while becoming madder and madder at the b***h.  How dare she come into Kincade’s life and steal him away from her and the lifestyle she was going to have by marrying into the Jordan family.

A few miles away Megan McNickels was just drying her hair after her nightly bath.  She was still disappointed that Duncan hadn’t shown up the night of the Charity Ball.  He’d promised but she wasn’t surprised because he was never dependable.  Megan started for the kitchen for her nightly herbal tea when a soft knock sounded on the door.  Duncan was hesitant about coming to Megan’s condominium especially since he didn’t show up when he was supposed to.  He hoped she would understand once he explained what happened over at Kincade’s place.  He was completely unprepared for the sight of her when she opened the door.  She stood in a pair of silk pajamas, long pants with a camisole all in dark purple.

Megan registered shock first then in an instant her blue eyes flared with anger, “My, my Duncan, aren’t you a little late.  I thought you were supposed to be here last night why don’t you turn around and leave,” she went to close the door in his face.

He slammed his hand against the door, “Megan please, I need to explain things to you,” he softly pleaded.

She sighed heavily he could see the war raging in her intelligent eyes, “Fine, five minutes.”

Duncan allowed his shoulders to slump a little as she moved aside to allow him entrance.  He took his long coat off once inside and her eyebrows went up a little, “Do you think you’ll be here long enough to take your coat off.”

He laid it over the back of a char while noticing she hadn’t lost her style when it came to decor.  The sofa and two chairs faced each other and matched eloquently.  They were a soft pale blue which went well with the deeper blue carpet.  A perfect match to them was her tables a dark mahogany they all had stylish vases along with glass figurines sitting on them.

Abruptly he turned to pin her with his deep whiskey eyes which held an emotion Megan wasn’t prepared to think about, “I think once you understand what happened you’ll want me to remain longer than five minutes.”

“I doubt it,” she scoffed her answer then gracefully walked across the room to a hutch, which was the same dark mahogany as the tables.  It held several glass decanters full of different colored liquids along with glasses of varied sizes.

Duncan watched the sway of her hips as she moved and felt desire pool into his stomach.  Once she stopped in front of the hutch, he stared at her long slender fingers as they gripped a decanter.  It contained a liquid the exact color of his eyes, which Megan poured two fingers of into a glass then handed it to him.

“If you’re giving me a drink you obviously intend me to stay longer,” he sat down on the sofa as he made the statement.

Megan took a bottle out containing a pink colored wine Duncan guessed it was a blush.  Pouring it into an expensive crystal wine glass, she turned with a smile, but he didn’t count it in his favor it never reached her eyes, “I just know how to be a good host your five minutes have started so talk quickly.”

Duncan took a small drink before setting it down on the stand to his left, “Megan after I left the Charity Ball some business came up.”

Megan chuckled harshly, “Ah yes I remember the late business that always came up, so I guess we’re all done here.”

He was done with the tantrum, so his temper flew before he could control it, “Dammit Megan, I’m legit now I have nothing to do with that life anymore.  I’m in business with Howard Alderwood and I haven’t been involved with anything illegal since I’ve been out.  The business last night was with Kincade Jordan.”

Megan saw the anger flash into his golden eyes and remembered when his temper flew, he was telling the truth.  Besides, he wouldn’t use Kincade in one of his lies when he’s calm is when the lies begin because he had time to think of a story.

 “I’m sorry Duncan old habits are hard to break.  This was a mistake I think you should go,” she set her wine down.

As graceful as a cat Duncan stood moving toward her where she instinctively took a step back.  Before she could move again, he pulled her against him, and she tensed immediately as he folded her in his arms.

“Please Duncan don’t do this,” she lifted her face to look up at him and his mouth moved slowly toward hers, “Please don’t kiss me.”

He ignored her pleas and placed his mouth gently over hers and the instant his lips touched hers Megan felt her resolve melt along with her body.  His mouth melded sweetly to hers as she parted them it allowed their tongues to meet in that age-old dance.  Megan felt her heart break a bit as she realized she’d come home.

“Ah my sweet Megan how I’ve missed you,” he whispered against her swollen lips.

Megan took that moment to move away, “Then why didn’t you allow me to see you while in prison.”

He looked puzzled, “I told you I wanted to see you, but you stated firmly you didn’t want to.”

Megan’s hands clenched up into fists, “I never told you that, who told you this,” she trailed off, “Never mind I know who.”

Duncan grunted, “Christina gave me the letter when she came to see me.  It said you didn’t want me or our baby, so I felt it was better to stay away when I got out.”

“I never gave her a letter why would I she’s the reason I lost,” she couldn’t finish instead turned away from him.

“The reason you lost what Megan,” Duncan gripped her shoulders turning her around to face him.

Her blue eyes swarmed with tears and streaked down her cheeks, “Our baby.”

Duncan released her harshly if she hadn’t been expecting it, she would have tumbled to the floor.  Looking at him with anger and even a little fear Megan watched him pace, “Why do you make up such stories I know you gave our child away after my betrayal then arrest.  You didn’t even want my child.”

She sat down heavily shaking her head, “That isn’t true I only carried our precious baby for seven months.  Two months after you went to prison, I lost,” she couldn’t continue she fell silent while tears continued to fall down her cheeks.

Duncan turned to look at her his anger evident but when he saw the pain so clearly in her lovely blue eyes, he stopped pacing, “I don’t understand.”

Megan knew she needed to tell the whole story no matter how much it hurt, “Christina came to see me I was seven months along we got into a horrible fight about you.  The argument got very physical I went into labor,” she stopped trying to gain control over her sobs this left Duncan still lost.

“Megan what happened next,” he softly asked.

She choked back more sobs but couldn’t stop the tears she turned those sad blue eyes on him, “We had a precious beautiful little girl and she lived for two days” a sob wrenched from her throat just before she buried her face in her hands.

His felt his heart breaking so he knelt before this brave beautiful woman, the only woman he’d ever genuinely loved and still did, “Please Megan tell me what happened to our little girl.”

She looked right into his whiskey eyes, “I named her Abby Crandall, and on her headstone, I had two angels carved.”

He grabbed her to cradle her in his arms while she cried.  Her body trembled as she sobbed once again for the baby girl she’d lost, “Oh God Megan I didn’t know, I’m so sorry.  If I’d known, I wouldn’t have stayed away.  I would’ve come to you sooner, but Christina told me you gave away our child.”

She pulled away as her sobs subsided in exchange for her fury, “She would say anything to get what she wants.  Do you think I could have given up our child?  I loved you and our baby more than anything in this world I would’ve given up my own life first.”

He looked back at this delicate woman and relieved the guilt of hurting her all over again, “Megan look at me.”

Megan turned, and blue eyes met whiskey ones, “Duncan, I loved you from the moment I laid eyes on you.”

He moved toward her within reaching distance, “I still love you Megan and what happened in the past with my crimes and Christina it was all a mistake.  I’ve changed my life for you and for myself.  I did all this, so I could get you back.”

The surprise flashed across her face, but she quickly covered it, “I don’t know Duncan, what happened two years ago, with us and Christina can’t be easily forgotten.”

“I don’t ever want us to forget so it’ll never happen again,” he could see the war once again raging in her and he held his breath waiting.

Finally, she moved ever so slightly toward him, “I still love you Duncan and I want you more than anything in this world,” she held her hand up to stop him from reaching for her, “But no lies, no illegal business, and finally the big one no Christina or anyone else.”

He smiled hugely, “Agreed it’s just you and me forever.  No lies, or illegal business, and especially no Christina or anyone else.”

Megan dropped her hand then took two steps into his arms where they folded around her, and she could feel his heartbeat.  It was like coming out of the darkness then he moved her head, so he could press warm lips to hers.  The kiss started out sweet and tender, but it had been two years since Megan’s been with anyone.  Besides the only man she ever wanted was holding her right now running her tongue across his lips making him groan his mouth opened for her.  Her tongue darted in to find his while he came undone quickly taking control of the kiss.  What he’d meant to be a slow seduction quickly became an all-out wild frenzy of emotions.  Scooping her up into his arms he headed for the bedroom he hadn’t forgotten where it was located.  Kicking open the door he lowered her down before him, he didn’t just stop at her mouth he moved down her neck then up to her ear.  After that, he returned to her luscious mouth making a moan escape as his expert hand and mouth roamed over her body. 

She wanted the barrier of clothes gone as if he read her mind, he pulled her camisole off to reveal perfect breasts to him.  They were a little larger than before but still firm as always and they fit perfectly in his hands.  Her dusky colored n*****s were already hard buds, so he took one into his mouth.  He sucked and ravaged each one until she felt like her legs would give out any minute.  Arching her back, she gave him better access, but he wanted more moving down from her breasts to her stomach.  His tongue circled her belly button noticing it was still flat even though she’d had a baby.  Pulling the silk pants down her athletic legs his hands brushed against her hot silky skin making Megan quiver.  She stood naked before him and more in love than three years ago, Duncan was on his knees in front of her.  Pushing her back until she practically fell onto the bed then taking her legs up and apart while he pulled off his shirt.  He began placing kisses up the inner side of her left leg starting at her ankle then slowly making his way to her thigh.  Megan laid back savoring the feel of his hot mouth on her skin while whimpering and cooing as he moved closer to her feminine heat.  Her body jolted as his tongue touched her inner flesh a second later, her body was arching up as he savored her sweet taste.  Flicking his tongue around her sensitive spot just before slipping it into her.  He made love to her womanly flesh before she had time to adjust to the sensations her body convulsed.  The world burst into wonderful lights and flashes as a c****x raced through her entire body.  Both hadn’t expected it that quickly so when she cried out, he smiled into her moist skin.  This told him she hadn’t experienced this in a long time, which meant she hadn’t been with any other men.

Duncan slowly stood followed by removing his pants along with his briefs while looking down at her he could see she was glowing from her release.  Touching her softly, he noted her skin was fire hot Megan felt a tingle when his mouth kissed her stomach.  He moved up until once again he had one of her n*****s in his mouth.  They were so sensitive from moments ago instinctively her body arched up pushing it further into his mouth.  In the process, it pushed the other part of her into his throbbing maleness and in that second, he couldn’t wait any longer to have her.

“My sweet Megan I’ve dreamed about you and this for the last two years,” he whispered against her wet n****e.

His warm breath blew across her heated flesh causing her n****e to harden more a moan came from deep in her throat, “I’ve also dreamt of this Duncan, please no more talking,” her voice was husky with uncontrolled desire.
