Mysterious CEO's Last Surrogate novel Chapter 66

Danica's excitement washed the backache she felt when Loney arrived. Herty had spent a lot of time with her till the latter had gone to sleep in Danica's room. Loney knew how to soothe her backache and swollen legs. Most times soaking her legs in warm water, he will kneel and kiss her bump, resting his head and listening to his child's heartbeat. The baby nonetheless was sure to send some kicks, showing him that he was faring well.

"How are you today?" He said gently to her while hugging her from the back. Danica had dished out his food on a plate which he took from her to the dining table after giving her a passionate kiss.

"I'm happy that you are here," Danica confessed as she followed him to the dining room. Loney sat on the chair and beckoned her to sit on his lap while he ate. In her state, he has kicked against her waiting for him to eat together and for the sake of her unborn child, she obliged. Her right hand snaked behind his back while he ate. Loney loved the feel of her arms around him and smiled in gratitude. Danica had a way of easing the fatigue he brought home. The mere sight of her was enough to keep him refreshed and rejuvenated.

"I just have a few more things to round up and then I will spend a lot more time with you and our unborn child okay?" Danica nodded her head in affirmation as Loney asked after swallowing the food in his mouth, "Has he been a good boy today?" 

"Very good," she nodded, rubbing her left hand on her bump, while her right hand remained firmly around his neck.

"That's wonderful and just to let you know I'll go and visit Paul tomorrow. It's just two hours away." Loney paused on his food as if contemplating whether or not he should tell her the sad news. He dropped his spoon and lowered his head. "His mum passed away." Loney's voice was laced with remorse, Danica was saddened.

"That's unfortunate," she whispered, instantly recalling when she lost her parents. Her eyes welled up but she fought the tears from falling.

"Yes, but she's very old. The doctors did everything possible. It's her time, I think." Loney thoughtfully said as Danica caressed his hair soothingly. "Paul is strong, he will get over it," She tried to comfort him while suppressing her own emotions.

"I know. I'm just saddened because it reminds us that nobody will live forever."

"That is a natural truth." Danica supported him. Loney pushed the empty plate away gently and faced her completely. "Anyway, how is your backache?"

Danica smiled sweetly, circling her arms tightly around his neck. "Still the same. I don't expect it to get better anyway. It's just difficult to sleep," she pouted.

Loney brushed his finger around her lips seductively, it sent shivers down her spine. Then he moved his hand, circling it around her bump. "I think I know how to get you to sleep." His voice was alluring, Danica felt her nipple harden. She has been more sensitive throughout her pregnancy.

"And what is that?" She asked, her breath heavy.

"A passionate lovemaking," Loney whispered in her ear, His lips brushing her ear lobe. Danica felt hot, her walls tightened, her juices gushing out, she felt wet. Every day that she saw him, she fell in love all over again. Before she responded, he captured her soft rosy lips in his warm moist mouth, kissing her passionately. "I love you so much." He whispered after breaking from the kiss.

"I love you too," Danica responded, disappointed that he stopped.

Loney runs his hands through her long hair, reaching her scalp. He caressed her hair, resting his head gently on her bump while she sat on his lap. "I will be there with you in the labour ward okay?"

"You promise?" Danica knew how busy he was and besides, no one knew the exact moment she might be in labour. It could happen before the two weeks or even after so what if Loney was busy then?

"I promise." He assured her. He knew that he would sacrifice any and everything to be by her side at the critical moment. He will share in her pain, in any way he could.

He kissed her again and stopped. "I can't stop if I continue. You look stunning even with your bump, I feel like eating you."

Danica smiled shyly, her cheeks reddening in response to Loney's flattering words. "But I don't want you to stop," she pressed closer to him.

Loney's lips stretched into a smile. He wanted her but he never wanted to be selfish. He always wanted it to be a mutual need and agreement. "Let me shower then," he kissed her again as he said.

"I haven't showered too. I've been waiting for you." Danica blurted, embarrassment washing her.

Loney knew what she meant. She had been waiting for them to shower together and of course, a lot happens anytime they shower together. "Hmmm. Naughty naughty Danica," he teased as he poked her nose gently.

In the bathtub, Loney caressed her skin with soap, his hands moving in circular motions around her back to her breast, then her bump. Danica moaned when Loney's hands touched her nipple, making him capture it in his mouth, as he slid a finger in and out of her wet walls. Danica moaned, pleasure sipping through her at every movement, her warm release coated Loney's finger, instantly washed by the warm water.

"No, I think someone is covering her tracks but I will find the person," Loney spoke with certainty. He knew Paul was talking about Daniella.

"I will give it more attention when I return," Paul assured him. He wanted nothing more than closure on the whole thing but Loney had other plans for him.

"No, you are not returning. They need you."

Paul knew that Loney was talking about his sisters. "They can take care of themselves. They are thirteen and fifteen. Besides, my auntie is there."

"What about Herty?" Loney didn't want to intrude in Paul's personal affairs but at this moment, he felt the need to because his friend has been lonely for a few years now.

"She reminds me too much about my mum so I just want to stay away from her for now," Paul lowered his head and said.

Loney frowned, concern written on his features. "I can see your heart bleeding as you utter those words."

"She won't meet or see me anywhere except in church and I've vowed not to enter one." Paul's phone began to ring and he took it out of his suit pocket. "Talk of the devil. Why is she calling me?" He asked, looking at the screen questioning.

Loney frowned. Something told him to check his phone as well. "I think you should answer the call." Loney removes his phone just as Paul answers his call, surprised to see so many missed calls from Herty. She must have wanted to speak with him and was not able to so she called Paul. 

Loney had a feeling that it might concern Danica. His gaze matched Paul's which sent terrifying shivers down his spine as Paul yelled,

"WHAT? We are coming over." He turned to Loney and said, "We have to go. Danica was kidnapped at the mall."
