His Change of Heart: Unexpected Pregnancy Romance Read Free Page A

and she began unbuttoning Will’s shirt, her hand making its way inside to the warmth of his body. And she ran her fingers slowly through the smooth mass of hair on his chiseled chest, lingering on his hard nipples, and down the front of his jeans. She wasn’t surprised that he was aroused. And she allowed her fingers to linger deliberately on the firm mould of his erection under the jeans, rubbing it slowly, over and over.
     
        Will lifted his head and gazed knowingly into her eyes, his gaze dropping to her heaving breasts that were on full display. He lowered his head and kissed the top of her breasts before passing his tongue over her taut nipples, taking them into his mouth and sucking them. Avery gasped and tilted her head back, gazing longingly into his eyes.
     
        And she saw that he was filled with as much yearning for her as she was for him. He wanted her. There was no way of him denying what he was feeling for her. His swollen manhood was a dead give away. They have always had that intense attraction for each other, even when they fought, and this time was no different.
     
       Avery reached for Will’s hand and she guided his fingers to the moisture between her legs. And she moaned as he caressed her, gently slipping his finger in and out of her suppleness, as his lips searched hers, kissing her, his tongue reaching deep inside her mouth.
       Then suddenly, Avery heard him groan. “I’m sorry, Ave.” He pushed her away, gently, and stood up. “I really am. I shouldn’t. We shouldn’t, not this way,” he said to her, running his fingers nervously through his damp hair. “It will only make things harder for us. I don’t want to hurt you. I wished none of this was happening, but sadly, it is.”
     
      Will let out a deep whistle and began pacing the room. Avery hated when he did that. It was a nervous habit he had that drove her absolutely crazy at times. There must be something else he wasn’t telling her. He looked serious enough, as if he was about to face off with an opponent in court. But she wasn’t his rival—she was far from it. She was the woman who was deeply in love with him, and she wanted to believe that he felt the same way about her too. They had shared so much over the last thirteen months that Avery thought she knew everything about him, but now she was beginning to wonder if she really did.
     
        “But you are hurting me, Will,” Avery said to him, looking him directly in the face.
      “God, this is harder than anything I have ever had to do in my entire life.” He whistled loudly.
     
      “What’s going on, Will. Is there something else I should know about, something you are not telling me? Can you stop pacing? You are making me nervous.” Avery looked at him, waiting for him to answer her. “Did you even think about what would happen to us when you leave? Long distance relationships don’t always work out. Couples grow apart—they don’t survive the long separation. They break up.”
     
       Will looked away. He couldn’t look her in the eyes. He looked right pass her instead, as if he hadn’t heard a word she had said to him. Avery knew then that that he was going to say something that she didn’t want to hear from him.
       “Oh, my god!” she remarked through a new set of tears. “So that’s it—you are breaking up with me, aren’t you? I should have known. I can’t believe this. No wonder you didn’t tell me about the job in Chicago. You had it all planned. You wanted to break the news to me and then run away like the coward you are. Get out! Get the hell out of my apartment, Will! I don’t want to see you—just leave—get out!”
         She got out of bed, and without bothering to cover herself, she went over to where Will was standing and tried to push him from the room. He didn’t budge. She was no match for his athletic frame and bulging muscles.
