Fight For My Heart (14 page)

“Fuck that’s hot.” Cadence and Ant say at the same time. I didn’t even notice them come in here during this whole performance. Ant is looking at me while Cadence looks between all three men. I instantly flush and drop my hands, get up and head to the sink to rinse off my plate.

“Damn girl I need to get my breast done if that’s the reaction you get by just joking around.” Cadence says with a laugh. I smirk at her and roll my eyes.

“Where are you going? After that, you’re just going to leave me hanging?” Vin comes up behind me whispering in my ear, rubbing his excited package against my back. “I need 5 minutes, that’s all.”

“That’s all you need? Hell Reese’s I got a good two hours to top that.” Rico says. I turn to him raising an eyebrow at his comment. “What? You are thinking about it aren’t you? Let’s get to it
baby
.” He says the baby impersonating Vin precisely. That has me and everyone else laughing so hard it sounds like none of us can breathe. Vin throws a rag at Rico’s face and picks me up bridal style taking off for the stairs.

He sets me down on the floor then closes and locks the door. I’m trying to keep a straight face, but it’s really hard when I keep hearing Rico’s voice in my head sound like Vin’s.

Suddenly, Vin bends and bites my nipple through the cami I have one, well that’s shut my laughing up and brought out a hiss instead. “There that’s better. Now you wanna explain the little performance? You haven’t been giving me shows like that since our little talk on Monday.” He tries to act like I’m hurting him, but the way his hands roam over my ass is anything but hurt.

“Oh, I’m sorry that my little show wasn’t for you only. But, if you need me just let know. I’m here to serve.” I tell him rubbing up and down his bulge in his workout sweats. He makes a growling sound in his throat. “I should really shower.” I tell him moving towards the bathroom.

“But you took one already.” He says sounding confused. I smile and lick my lips at him before removing my t-shirt and bra, then throwing them his way. “Oh, Oh. Yeah, you need to shower after all.” He quickly follows suit removing his clothes as he goes. He gets in and automatically goes straight for my breasts. Guess I shouldn’t tease him.

I moan and grab his hair holding him close to me as the water sprays from above us. The things this man can do with his tongue should really be logged into some type of journal for all men in the world. It just doesn’t get any better than him. “No, this is for you.” I tell him; finally able to release myself from the hold he has on me. I push him back and drop to my knees in front of him. Grabbing his dick I begin to stroke him up and down, paying careful attention to the barbells he has at the top.

I look up him and his eyes are half closed and his breathing has picked up. Those delicious lips are parted and he’s biting the full bottom one. God he is sexy. I run my tongue around the head and bite on the barbell pulling it gently, his dick jump in response so I repeat and do the same to the other, before finally pulling him into my mouth. I work up and down, while stroking him at the same time. He starts pumping his hips and moaning in response. How I love that sound coming from him. I start moving my head faster then suddenly I’m pulled up and turned around, not getting a chance to breathe before he slams into me. In and out, over and over again. I try to speak and tell him I only wanted to do this for him, but the way his moving in that circular motion, my pleas die in my throat. “Yes.” I scream out and arch more into him; throwing my ass back into everything he’s giving me. No words are really needed for this right now.

“Fuck yeah, damn baby.” He groans holding himself inside a rotating his hips into me. Hitting that perfect spot deep inside, I feel it right there. “I feel you squeezing me, just let go.” He says through clenched teeth. I immediately let go, before I get the chance to come down from my high he turns me around, pushing my shoulders down, I drop to my knees in front of him and I already know what he needs. “You said this was about me, but I had to help you too, you know what I want baby.” He growls before slamming his cock into my mouth. Shit this is hot as hell. I take him deep in my throat and keep sucking while he fucks my face my passion I haven’t seen before. I can tell you now, I’ll be holding out much more from now on, if this is the kind of sex we will be having. “Shit, I’m coming.” I feel each spurt hit the back of my throat before I swallow it down then sit back on my hind legs and take a breather.

I open my eyes and give him a satisfied smile before I get up and finally shower myself. Today just started out perfect.

By the time my dad shows up to take us all out from Tony’s game I’m dressed and ready to go. Vin says he would meet us there, so I see him in a bit. He had some things to take care of beforehand. I run and hug my dad, then get into my Escalade and let my dad drive us over to the Mexican tequria we’re going to eat at. I was having a craving so I insisted on it.

We all sit down at the table. My dad, Tony, Dom, Cadence, and Ant. I start to wonder where Vin is, when my phone buzzes.

Hey, can’t make it. I won’t be at your house later either. I have a few things I have to do tonight. Text me later.
– Vin

Is everything ok?
– Me
Cant talk.
– Vin

Ok, that’s weird. I try to concentrate on ordering my drink, appetizer, and dinner, but I feel weird. My stomach is tight and I can’t really concentrate.

My dad speaks, “Taleah we need to discuss some things about your relationship with Vincent.” I look at him confused as to where he’s going with this. He didn’t seem too against our relationship last time he was here. And, even though I haven’t seen or heard from Marco ever since Vin’s fight, things haven’t seemed different until right now.

As if speaking my unspoken question my dad speaks again, “I know I didn’t have a problem with Vincent dating you or even this pregnancy before. You are my baby girl no matter what has happened in our relationship in the past, you always come first. I have been receiving threatening phone calls about supposed sexual harassment in my companies, against me. When I started investigating where the accusations were coming from I found out Carmen and her father Victor were paying these women to tell their stories about me. I will admit that I did sleep with them, but they were always willing.”

I’m reeling from everything he’s saying and I didn’t think Victor or Carmen would really go this far to get rid of me. They are rich as us already, so why try to hurt me? Vin’s career can only take him so far. I have enough inheritance from both sides of my family that I don’t even need him. Well for money at least. My stomach tightens again, this time it must show on my face, because Tony and Cadence jump up to see what’s wrong. I try to breathe through the pain, but it’s too much. My father yells at someone then Dom rushes over pushing everyone out the way and picks me up into his arms and carries me outside to the car.

Everything feels so wrong right now; I just wish Vin was here.

The ride is short; I don’t even pay attention to anything other than Dom’s heart beating furiously against my cheek. He’s scared but why? There is nothing wrong with me I just had an appointment and today I’m about 7 months and 3 days along. I don’t understand why everyone is freaking out. All I know is my wishes for Vin to be here aren’t working. After his last text there was no response. I need him right now and it’s not in anyone’s interest but my own that he’s here.

It’s not Vin’s fault all this is happening though. They must see that, right? I’m getting tired now.

“Taleah!” Dom shouts at me. “No baby stay with me! Shit there’s so much blood. Come on baby stay awake. I need you Te, please stay awake.” He sobs into my hair. What’s going on? I feel like I have the same question on repeat in my head. “We’re here.” Someone shouts, it sounds like my dad, but I’m not so sure. I’m going in and out on consciousness right now.

I slowly blink as I’m lowered to stretcher and Dr. Neil is there helping the escort me. “She needs a room now, too much blood loss. I thought you all said it wasn’t that bad at the restaurant.” He shouts at my family quickly walking behind me.

“We didn’t know it was this bad until we got into car, she was just looking distressed before. There was blood on her shorts though.” Cadence replies to him.

“Vin.” I wheeze out.

“I called him Te, he said he’s on his way here, right now babe.” Cadence relays the message to me. I don’t feel any better though. As always he isn’t here until he feels like it.

My mind is shutting down, this is all too much. Too much pain, too many unanswered questions from dinner, too many feelings on why Vin isn’t here. One thing too many to think about right now. I guess this is what it feels like to completely lose your shit, huh?

I’m situated in a room, I see things happen around me; IV’s are set up, a monitor rolled in, people talking in rushed sentences, my dad, brother, best friend, and ex are all on one side of the room watching as this little life inside of me fights a battle I don’t have the mind to pay attention to anymore. This has to be some fucked up nightmare because this doesn’t happen to me. This past year has been a roll of emotions up and down, good times and bad, when will the unimaginable world around me completely fall. I’m lost in my thoughts when the door bursts open and I watch Vin assess the situation before his eyes lock onto mine. And, just like that I feel everything come right back to me.

I feel like I can finally breathe, but this time it’s in a Vin and Taleah bubble where we are the only ones who exist. Those damn hazel eyes stayed locked onto mine as he gets closer to me. No words are spoken between us as he pulls up a chair and takes a seat at my side. His hand reaches up and pushes my hair from my face, and that’s when the waterworks break free.

“Shh, it’s ok I’m here. You two are going to be alright. Come back from wherever you just were and listen to me. Baby, I’m right here.” Vin whispers to me wiping my face clean of the tears that won’t stop. I don’t even know why I’m crying, I’m just happy he seems to understand.

“Alright Taleah, it seems you little one got a bit stressed out. The placenta was close to detaching, but we have it under control now. That was a lot of blood loss so we’re going to keep monitoring you two and hook up some more blood to your IV so you can sustain the right amount for what you lost. Now please just try to relax and let the medicine do its job. If you need anything just hit the button and have a nurse page me. I’ll be back to check on you soon.” Dr. Neil smiles then leaves the room.
I turn my face into Vin’s neck and breathe, thankful that my baby is okay. I didn’t even realize how serious everything was when I was in my own head trying to block everything and everyone out.

“Where were you?” I whisper to him.

“I had some meetings, but I don’t want to get into that right now. Just relax we’ll talk later. I’m sorry for not making dinner though.” Vin replies. His hand rubs my side and then down to my belly giving it a light massage. Our daughter seems to know he’s here trying to comfort her, because she gives a little kick. He smiles at me then leans down to give her a kiss back.

“Thank you for coming so quickly I don’t even know what happened to me. One minute we were eating and talking about some things that you and I need to discuss later, and then the next I’m being carried out the restaurant and brought here.”

“I know you dad filled me in on the phone when I was on my way over here. And, I promise we will talk, just relax, please.” He gives me that don’t argue with me look.

“Ok, I’m tired.” I yawn and snuggle deeper into the hospital bed. Trying to get situated in a good spot so I can sleep.

“Sleep baby, I’m going to talk to your dad, then I’ll be right back.” He kisses my head and gets an “Mmm” from me. That’s the last thing that happens before I’m fast asleep.

I wake up the next morning to a hospital room full of people. Cadence notices me first and walks over to my bed and sits on the edge. “You scared me girl, don’t do that again. I didn’t know what the hell was going on. Why didn’t you say you were feeling bad?” She questions me.

“I didn’t feel bad until we started talking about everything, then cramps started happening. I guess I just got too upset with what was being said about Vin and my father. It was just too much to take in at the time. I’m sorry I scared you, I didn’t expect all of this to happen.” I tell her surveying the room. Vin is having a quiet conversation with my father, they must have already discussed what happened at dinner because neither seem angry, but instead inquisitive as to what they are going on about.

“Well we’ve been all night and since you seem to be ok now, me and Ant are going to go home and change. The doctor came and checked you while you were sleeping. He said you could go home later on today if your tests come back ok, but that you need to take it easy for the next few weeks. I’ll grab you some clothes then come back here.” She kisses my head and gets up to leave.

I watch her say goodbye and walk out the door, Ant must be waiting for her, because I didn’t see him in here last night before I went to sleep.

My dad pushes himself away from the wall and pulls a chair closer to me. “Hey baby girl, you doing ok kiddo?” He grabs my hand into both of his and rubs his thumb across the top.

“Yeah, I feel better now, no pain, just hungry.” I give him a smile.

“That’s good sweetheart, I’ll go get you something to eat. But, first I want you to know, that I don’t blame Vin for everything that’s going on. I spoke to him and he knows everything, we just have to beat those fuckers at their own game. I will say I was upset and blamed him at first, but now I know everything and this goes beyond him. I’ll let you two talk when you’re feeling better.” He rubs my hand one more time and starts to stand. “Now what does my granddaughter want to eat? Hmm..” He smiles and waits for me to answer.

“Jason’s Deli sounds really good right now. I want the Turkey and Swiss sandwich with a cup of strawberries and that fruit dip, please?” I give him my doe eyed look, because I know he hates going there because it’s always so crowded.
