LET THE GAMMA FALL FOR ME

It was supposed to be just a one-time encounter — just letting out the steam that had been fuming between us. He was not made for relationships, while I just got out of one and was not ready for another.

But that one-night stand turned into two nights, and then three, until I could no longer count the number of times he knocked at my door whenever he wanted to get laid.

And I just let him in.

But then, the nights of passion turned into two stripes on the pregnancy stick.

And he wanted nothing to do with it.

CHAPTER 1.

LEXI.

“Lexi, you’re six weeks pregnant.” Clotilde’s voice kept resonating in my head as goosebumps rose from my skin.

My period had always been on time, so when I realized I was late for more than a week already, I tried a pregnancy stick.

Two stripes. 

But I needed a second opinion, so I went to the maternity ward in the hospital where I was working and asked my friend to check on me. I was really pregnant. 

I held the steering wheel tightly. I had been sitting in my car in the open space outside my apartment building for the last thirty minutes, reflecting on my life choices and the decisions I needed to make.

At 23, I was not ready to be a mother. I just got my residency from the big hospital where I worked, and I was just starting to take control of my life.

This was all Austin’s fault. He shouldn’t have visited this city and tempted me to have sex with him. He was so good at it that even if I kept telling myself I would hold myself together and not let him seduce me, I still failed.

“Why Alexandria?!” I groaned and bumped my head on the wheel so hard that it began to honk, startling the people in the parking lot. I tilted my head up and stared at their annoyed expression, as if what I did was a deadly sin. 

It was just a damn honk — not as if I ran over them!

I snorted before resting my head on the wheels again, carefully this time. 

Why did I have to let Austin back into my life? Why?

It was almost ten in the evening when I finally decided to get out of my car. I was worn out and hungry. I just wanted my bed. I would sleep it all off and think about it tomorrow.

I felt like I was just floating in the air as I made my way inside the apartment building, and I was glad I didn't bump into anyone, as I didn't have the energy to even smile.

I finally reached my apartment door, but my heart began thudding loudly when I couldn’t find my key in the big pot of plants outside my door. I knew it was an easy spot for someone to just steal it, but I’d been here for a year, and none had taken it except one person — Austin.

I had given him access to my apartment, so he was free to come and go. But he was just here a day ago. He would usually come once or twice a week.

So why was he here again? 

I swallowed the invisible lump in my throat before patting my cheeks, making sure I didn’t look pale. I was about to knock when the door swung open, and Austin’s handsome, smiling face popped up. 

His arm was leaning against the door frame. He was wearing just regular sweatpants and showing off his perfectly toned abs.

He was definitely here to get laid. 

I smiled at him, restraining myself from jumping on him. So, instead, I slid past him, and I heard him let out a breath before closing the door. 

“Are you in a bad mood? I can make you feel better.” He began.

Tempting. But no. 

“We need to talk, Austin,” I told him after I dropped my bag on the counter and turned around to face him.

“Can that wait? I didn’t overspeed to get here and wait an hour for you to come home just to sit and talk. I need action.” He came closer and dipped his face onto my neck, nuzzling his nose against my skin.

Fire. 

I bit my bottom lip, stopping myself from giving in, but then his hand moved onto my breasts and began kneading them. “I want to taste these big tits, baby. You can tell me your story while I suck and bite them.”

“Austin!” I gasped, clutching his hands from my breasts and securing them on his sides. “Please, let’s talk.”

“Are you breaking up with me? Can we have at least one fuck, and then we can part ways?” He chuckled, but when he realized I was not smiling, he pulled away from me and raised his hands up with his eyebrows hiking up. He slowly backed away and slumped his ass on my couch. “Did you wake up on the wrong side of the bed?”

“We need to discuss something…”

“Come to Daddy.” He patted his thighs, and his devilish grin was back on his face. This man certainly knew how to woo females. “Be a good girl and tell me what you did wrong today, and I can promise you that whatever punishment I have in mind, you will enjoy it like the last time.”

“Daddy? I’m older than you.” I rolled my eyes at him before crossing my arms against my chest. I didn’t think before answering that, but I regretted it the moment he stood up again and headed in my direction. 

His hands landed on my ass, and he lifted me off the floor so that I had no choice but to cling to his shoulders. 

“Austin!” I shrieked. 

He yanked my legs and wrapped them around his hips before he smacked my ass hard, making me gasp again.

“You’re older, but we both know I’m still the boss here because, again, who’s the one spanking this perfect round ass of yours?” He groaned, but he didn’t even let me answer his questions.

His mouth smashed into mine as he moved our position swiftly. My back hit the wall as he pressed his front against mine. He had an erection.

But I know it was now or never.

I tilted my head to the side so that his mouth landed on my cheek. But he continued to kiss me, nibbling and sucking my skin.

“Put me down…” I said in a hoarse voice. 

He pulled away from my face, slowly letting me down. His eyes were dilating, and I knew he was upset. “What’s going on?”

My hands went to his chest as I slowly pushed him away, wanting a space to breathe between us. 

“I’m pregnant.”

“Who’s the father?”
