Joshua’s fingers pushed further into my panties as he held me firmly in place with his other hand, his fingers digging into my hip. Then I felt the pad of his finger as he gently skimmed over the sensitive bud of nerves at my core, and my legs went weak. “Mine,” he growled, nipping my ear lobe once again. “And I will break every bone in his body for hurting you if we ever cross paths.”
I took a deep breath in as he circled me, and I could feel my wetness coating him. I gasped and then whimpered, ready to start begging him to touch me in the way that I wanted him to. “I’ll protect you, Abby, because you’re mine.” His finger pushed inside of me, and I moaned, throwing my head back against his hard shoulder.
Joshua ground into me, and his firm grip on me never wavered, and I loved every second of it. I loved feeling his strong hands on my body. He made me feel safe, even when I had questioned if I should trust him. The wavering of my confidence had only been a reaction to my past trauma. I knew all along that Joshua never wanted to hurt me. “That’s it, baby,” Joshua purred into my ear, slipping another finger inside of me. I moved my hips against him, basking in the feelings his touch invoked. It felt so good it was sinful.
I reveled in all of it. The touch of his fingers, his lips on my skin, his hard length rubbing into me from behind. “Do you feel me inside of you? I want you to fuck my fingers and know that you deserve to be worshiped. I want you to do what feels good.” I moaned, my pace picking up speed. My hands started to slip from the desk as I threw my head back against him. My legs started shaking.
Suddenly Joshua’s grip on my hip loosened, and I felt him grip me around the waist, propping me up. “That’s it, baby.” His mouth was on mine again, and his teeth bit down on my bottom lip. “I fucking love feeling you come apart for me and only me. I love feeling you move against me. You’re addicting, and I can’t stop myself from wanting to devour every inch of you.”
The earth moved and waves of pleasure crashed into me from the center of my core. I screamed out his name, and Joshua’s mouth slammed over mine as he quickly removed his fingers and shoved my panties down to my ankles. I was shaking, still riding out my orgasm, as he quickly spun me around and pulled my leg up around his hip. He gripped my bare ass with his other hand. “You are so fucking beautiful,” he said, pulling his pants down and burying himself into my sensitive core.
I swear that stars clouded my vision as he entered me, and it nearly brought me to my peak once again. “Joshua,” I gasped, wrapping my hands around him. His hard muscles were bunching under my touch as he pulled back and slammed into me again and again. I matched his pace, relishing in the way my body was singing for him. Blood was rushing to the most sensitive parts of my body, and the room was spinning around me as we met each other’s thrusts, and gripped each other as if we were both afraid we were about to slip from each other’s grasp.
Joshua pulled back from my mouth, and his gaze penetrated me. “I fucking love you, Abby. So much that I set the world fire for you.” My eyes slammed shut as tears started to pool. Hearing his words of love did something to me. It opened up the floodgates inside my heart that I would never get to close. “Do you understand what I’m telling you?” he asked, driving into me again.
“I love you, and I will not stop trying to be a better Man for you, someone that deserves you.” I nodded against his chest, placing small kisses over his skin. I was too overwhelmed at the moment to speak. So, instead of saying anything, I slammed my lips to his, and I kissed him with everything I had in hopes that he could feel my answering love reflected in the gesture. And he kissed me back just as passionately.
We matched each other’s deep thrusts, and I whimpered into his mouth, feeling myself teetering on the edge of bliss once again. His fingers gripped into my skin, and I bit down on his bottom lip. He pumped into me a few more times as I moved my hips against his, then his hands suddenly left me, bringing my legs back down to the ground just before he leaned his head back and shot his warm cum down the front of my belly. He hissed in between his teeth as he gripped himself, sweat beading his forehead and running down the sides of his cheeks.
I watched on in awe as he continued to stroke himself as he drained himself of every drop. “Fuck,” he muttered, glancing up at me sharply with hooded eyes and swollen lips. He was still gripping himself, and I bit my lips, not wanting to leave this room. I didn’t want to think about anything other than what just happened between us. Joshua bent down, grabbed his shirt off the floor, and slowly ran it down the front of my belly to clean his seed off me. Then, he threw it off to the side, grabbed my ass again, and picked me up, wrapping my legs around his body. “Mine,” he whispered before depositing us both on the bed.

Baby Mama Drama
Abigail - Three Months Later…
Something had changed between Joshua and me that day a few months ago. We were officially together now. Saying that the months that have followed the loss of his father have been rough for him is an understatement. It’s been heart-wrenching to catch the frequent glimpses of the pain that I know is always there lingering just below the surface. I tried to be there for him as much as I could to soothe the burden of his grief in any way I could. And he did the same for me.
We had somehow found ourselves in each other. Two sides to the same coin. Two hearts that mirror each other. If soulmates are truly such a thing I’d dare to say Joshua was mine.
We spent most of our time together, split between staying at his place or mine. Although lately, we were at his place more than not. I helped him when the boys came to stay with him on the weekends and we would all get to spend quality time together going to the park for picnics or taking them to the movies. The boys had taken up permanent residence in my heart. They were an absolute joy to be around and I felt privileged to be able to watch them grow. It had been exciting to watch Ethan take some of his first steps and learn to walk. Joshua was overflowing with pride for his son and I couldn’t help but share it with him a little bit.
Shannon had proven to make things difficult at every given opportunity and it normally always had something to do with money, when you got to the bottom of it. She used the boys as leverage whenever she could. She would threaten to take time away from Joshua if he didn’t keep giving her more money. Not to mention the fact that she had some weird idea in her head that Joshua still belonged to her and that she had power over him. She even tried to demand he stopped seeing me or he wouldn’t be allowed to take the boys. When that didn’t work she had said that I wasn’t allowed to be around the boys at all even though she had moved Robert into the apartment with her. I would never understand a woman like Shannon. My only conclusion was that she was a narcissist.
When I had opened up to Joshua about the concerning text messages I had been receiving from Sterling he had flipped out at first. But once he calmed down he had taken me to change my phone number right away and has been trying to talk me into moving in with him permanently. Saying that he didn’t like the idea that Sterling had somehow figured out where I live. We were still debating the issue. I didn’t want to crowd him because he did just go through a divorce and although we didn’t start out in a very conventional way I wanted to do things right from here on out. I want him to date me and things in our relationship to progress at a natural pace instead of being forced.
It was like a switch had been flipped in Joshua’s head when he finally decided to be with me. All of his reservations from before had all but disappeared. In fact, it was like we had switched roles almost and he was the more clingy one in the relationship. He demanded a lot of my attention and found any excuse to touch me when we were out in public. I secretly loved his possessive streak.
Even Lily had admitted to seeing the change in him and his treatment of me. She still threatened him on a regular basis but I knew she was mostly just joking at this point. Tonight we had plans to go out with Lily and Maddox. I was currently waiting for Lily to meet me at Java Co so we could head back to my place to get ready together.
I was sitting there at our usual table outside when I heard the screech of tires as a car whipped into an open parking space in front of the coffee shop. I sat there in shock as I watched a woman jump out of the car and bolt towards me and I realized who it was. When Shannon stood before me panting and looking panicked I was too stunned to speak at first. But then my heart dropped when I thought of the possibility that something had happened to one of the boys.
That thought had me jolting out of my seat and asking, “Shannon, is everything OK?” “NO! I just got a call from Robert who is in the ER with Zander and I can’t get a hold of Joshua!” She screeched out sounding scared. “Let me try and call him…” I started and she quickly cut me off. “Don’t you think I already tried that! His phone is off. The battery must be dead or something!” she snapped.
“OK, well I know he should be about to be on his way home from work. I could head to his house and try and catch him there and send him to meet you at the Emergency Room.” I offered, trying to come up with a solution. “NO! No, I need you to come with me!” she shouted and I was taken aback by that. “OK, what can I do to help?” I asked wanting to do whatever I could to help the situation. She turned back to her car and I quickly followed her and got into the passenger side. “So is Zander OK? What happened and why do you need me to go with you?” I questioned as I snapped on my seat belt and she peeled out of the parking lot.”
“Robert said that he broke his arm.” she simply explained, ignoring my other question and leaving me even more confused by this whole scenario. “Poor Zander. So what do you need from me?” I asked again. She glanced over at me for a second before snapping. " I just need you to go with me to the hospital until we can get a hold of Joshua. Ethan is with my Mom but she has to go to work soon and Robert will have to leave me alone at the hospital.” She explained and it didn’t make much sense to me at all.
Out of all people in the world why would she want me to sit with her at the hospital?It was a little odd and a lot uncomfortable, considering everything. It wasn’t that I wasn’t open to being on friendly terms with her in order to make things easy for her and Joshua to co-parent but she had made it clear in the past that wasn’t going to happen anytime soon.
“Do you mind if I see your phone? I need navigation and my battery is low,” she explained. “Um, sure,” I said and handed it over to her before looking out the window. Growing more uncomfortable with every passing second.
When I heard the window lowering I glanced back over at Shannon just in time to see her throw my cell phone out of it. I was too stunned to do anything at first and then I watched on in horror as she reached into the side of her door and pull out a shiny gun she had tucked away there and aim it directly at me. “What the hell are you doing, Shannon?” I questioned as fear slammed into me in waves. “I’m kidnapping you, Abby, what else does it look like?” she asks before letting out a manic laugh.This cannot be happening right now. This isn’t real life.
“Why are you doing this? This can end now. Put the gun away and pull over and let me out and I swear I won’t go to the police.” I pleaded and she laughed again. “Do you think I’m fucking stupid? God, I can’t believe Joshua prefers you over me.” “I don’t understand. I thought you were happy with Robert.” I whispered. “Shows what a little fool you are, Abby. Robert is a fun little toy for me to play with but he isn’t the sharpest crayon in the box if you know what I mean. He makes minimum wage for fucks sake, how am I supposed to survive off his little boy dollars?! Did you think that I would let you swoop in and reap all the benefits off of Joshua after all the work I put into getting him where he is?” she screamed at me.
She was fucking insane!“Joshua is the one who worked to get himself where he is today, Shannon. He made Project Manager all on his own.” I told her and realized it was the wrong thing to say to the crazy Bitch with the gun in her hand as soon as she raised the gun up high and slammed it down hard onto the side of my forehead and I felt the blinding pain and the warm ooze of blood as it poured down my face. “Shut your fucking mouth before I put a bullet between your eyes right here and now.” She screamed at me and I complied. We sat in silence as I watched on in dismay as we got further and further away from the city.Where the hell was she taking me?
