Monday came too soon, the weekend felt like a hangover. The baby variety one. And I was feeling the strange vibe the second I reached my desk in front of Kamaria's office. This morning Jasper told me that he was going to go daycare shopping and take the day off and I nodded, not knowing how to respond to his words. Did he expect me to go with him?"Benji, you're avoiding me." Jacqueline's voice beamed from behind me, while I was shifting through Kamaria's schedule for the next couple of days. "Don't give me that, you're the one who's too busy for me and I'm staying at Jasper's. Girl, we need coffee for this talk, come on," Kamaria was out for her morning meeting and I swiftly grabbed my roommate's hand guided her to our office pantry. "Are you okay? I mean... I ditched you alone this weekend. I know you have your dates, but I was still worried that you came home to my crazy client." I poured her a fresh cup of coffee, while my head was still thinking where do I start with my explan
Gene's POV The Paralegal guy has a baby, I know for sure since I updated myself with the office's latest gossip. And when I heard that Benjamin was still staying with the guy, I need to make sure for myself. That was what I'm trying to find out when I grabbed Benjamin's hand in the pantry. I need to know, was it really me? And when Jasper walked in on us, Benjamin pushed himself away from me like I had the plague, that's when I realized. I thought he didn't want me because he doesn't want the baby baggage. Fuck.The days couldn't pass by fast enough and when my nerve hits and I've had enough, I told my wife that I was working late and told her not to wait up on me. Portia nodded and was back to breastfeeding the baby. We hadn't talked much, not since the day I saw her kissing another man in my house while pregnant with our child. That night all hell breaks loose, feelings were out in the open. She knows that I didn't love her, she knows about my mother's wishes, she was my best fri
Jasper's POVIt was two weeks later when we finally find the rhythm to our daily activities. I thought my life would be clueless once I have Tara, but somehow Ben made it all okay. He's the glue, a small little insignificant unforeseeable piece of the puzzle that bonds the three of us together. Tara's nursery was done, Ben has most of his stuff at my place, in my bedroom, our bedroom. My personal gym had been tucked away in a storage unit until I can find a bigger place to move all of us in one place. "Everything is moving at a lightning speed, I'm still waiting for the other shoe to drop." My boyfriend said as he snuggled closer to my body. The phrase was still new, and yes, Ben and I are officially a couple as of last week. Tara was down for her nap, it was a lovely Saturday afternoon where none of us was working and we were lying in bed in the comfort of each other's company. "Do I need to fuck your brain out again so you can stop with your
Jasper took us to Barney's where they have a family-friendly section inside the restaurant. "Thank you for this, I'm so bored. I need to get out and see other people." I uttered happily and adjusted Tara's baby chair after the waiter left with our order. "Huh?" the man gave me a puzzled look. He actually made me laugh and Tara's giggles follow. "Your daddy is so funny." I caressed her chubby cheek. "Silly man, this," I glanced, gesturing to our surroundings. "It's been a while since I dine fully clothed, with other people around.""Oh, right. Sorry, let's make this our date night then, every weekend or every other weekend we set a date to dine out." "Oh yeay!" I let out a little excitement at Tara and she giggled some more which then made him laugh and my heart warms seeing both of them happy in front of me. Our meals arrived not long after, we eat and talk, Tara was happy with the small portion of her kids' menu. She laughed at our
Jasper's POV"Was he telling the truth?" his voice was sexily throaty, it was still dawn. I've just gotten Tara back to sleep after feeding her a bottle of milk. Last night Ben didn't talk about it, my knuckles were still sore after hitting his bastard ex. I didn't like the way he grabbed Ben, then there was the condescending homophobic stare that his fiancée gave us. I don't understand why the hell didn't Ben shoo those two people away? "Hmm? truth about what?" I know what he's going to ask, I just didn't want my answer to scare him away. I didn't want to lose him, not when I just had him in my arms. "Elroy accusing you of murdering someone?" my beautiful Ben rest to his side, propped his head on his tucked arm between the pillow waiting for my answer. I kissed his forehead and nodded. "It's true."He looked at me, caressed my jaw with his other hand, and popped the question, "Would you ever going to tell me about it?"
Jasper's POV"Did I hurt you? how are you feeling?" I was back to his side after getting back from the bathroom with a damp towel.I hated that I was back to being a Dom with him. I can't do this to him. I have a kid in the other room, what was I even thinking?Dominating a willing woman is one thing, but a man? I was still struggling with my sexuality. I shouldn't have dumped this onto his lap. I was overwhelmed with the need to have him, to mark him as mine. But I already know he's mine, I know he'd do anything I'd tell him to do and it breaks my heart that I would treat him as a sub, a plaything when he had been subjectified as such in his workplace before."I'm fine Jasper, let me get clean up then I'll go check on Tara." He looked red, flushed, and beautifully satisfied from my doing. Still, I felt that it was too much for him, that I was wrong. I know I shouldn't have pushed him that far. But he was encouraging me, he was wanting me to let m
"Are you sure about bringing me to meet your parents?" I asked Jasper again as I was packing Tara's clothes and her daily stuff needed for staying at his parents'. Jasper was dressing her after her bath. He played and she giggled making her evening routine seem as if they've been doing this for years instead of months. "Ben, there's no doubt. I love you and we're doing this. I don't want to hide you, and surprise them in the future just because I can't keep myself away from you." He was serious for a moment, then back to giggling with his kid the next. I was so proud of him, he had come a long way with Tara, I didn't imagine he'd settle in with her that fast. Strangely Tara didn't seem to miss her mom at all, I guess he was right, Phoebe, his ex, really leave her with nannies. "Okay, now Ben will read your bedtime story and daddy will take his shower because you, my little nugget, you splash and make daddy clothes all wet." The said nugget giggled and ran to my b
The car entered the gate of his house, yep...his house has gates, and the driveway is paved until he parked the car at the spacious parking area meters away from the intimidating column of the mansion he called earlier as his childhood home. "This is not a house, dude, are you in deep with the mafia?" he laughed at my questions, and instead of answering me he cupped my face and gives me a chaste kiss, his eyes were still full of laughter. "Wake up princess, we're at grandma's," Jasper whispered softly as he tried to wake her up. I was still stunned by his little act earlier, he took Tara but put her in my arms when she reaches out for me. The hot daddy then took our bags and put them at the entrance, under the grand column, and seconds later we were greeted by his butler. "Jameson, how are you old man?" he greeted the said older man in a servant suit then Jasper warmly introduced us to Jameson and the man informed me that he's the head butler.
