Love, Lust & a Millionaire Read online

Oliver rolled his eyes. “Yes, things are good. We’ll talk later. By the way, if you’re taking Sophie to the museum, who’s taking care of the company?”

  “The company is fine, Oliver. We’re going to the museum and then Sophie’s coming with me back to the office. Clara had some family thing to do today, so I’m spending the day with her. Don’t worry about a thing.”

  “I’m not worried. Thank you, Liam, and have fun.”

  “Bye, Delilah.” He smiled and kissed the screen.

  I laughed.

  “If you do that again to my girlfriend, little brother, I’ll hurt you in more ways than one.”

  Liam laughed as he ended the call. I reached up and gave Oliver a kiss. “I like being your girlfriend.” I smiled.

  “Good, because I like being your boyfriend. Nothing gives me more pleasure. Well, except when I bury my cock deep inside that beautiful pussy of yours.” He winked.

  Instantly, I was aroused and aching for him. I wrapped my hand around the back of his neck. “We have about ten minutes. Show me how fast you can pleasure me.”

  He growled as he took down his pants and I took down mine. He pushed away everything that was sitting on the desk and lifted me up on it. “Have you ever had sex on a desk?”

  “No.” I bit down on my bottom lip.

  “Good. Enjoy the ride, Miss Graham.” His grin widened as he thrust into me.

  Chapter 34

  When we walked into Tanner’s room, Oliver took a seat in the chair to check his emails and messages.

  “Okay, Tanner. It’s a beautiful day again today and I don’t want you to miss it. You are to wake up and see the sun shining. Do you understand me?” I spoke harshly as I opened the curtains. I froze.

  “Always telling me what to do,” I heard his voice say in a whisper.

  Oliver jumped up from his chair and I slowly turned around to see Tanner staring at me. “My head hurts, sis.”

  I ran over to him and began to cry. Oliver left the room to get the nurse.

  “Oh my God, you’re awake.” I leaned over and lightly hugged him.

  “It was your nagging voice.” He tried to smile.

  The nurse came running in and Oliver followed behind.

  “Nice to see you awake, Mr. Graham,” the nurse spoke as she took his vitals.

  “Thanks. It’s nice to be awake. My head hurts really bad and so does my leg.”

  “I’ll get you some pain medication right now and I’ll call the doctor.”

  Oliver walked up behind me and smiled at Tanner. “Glad you’re okay, buddy.”

  “You must be Oliver,” he whispered.

  I looked at him strangely. “How did you know?”

  “I just know.” He stared across the room. “Hey, sis.”

  I looked over at the doorway and Colette and some guy walked in. I ran to her and gave her a hug. “He just woke up.”

  “Thank God.” She let out a sigh of relief as she walked over to his bedside.

  “Hi, you must be Delilah. I’m Corey. Colette’s boyfriend.”

  “Nice to meet you, Corey. I didn’t know Colette had a boyfriend.” I looked over at her.

  “I haven’t had a chance to tell you yet.”

  “This is my boyfriend, Oliver Wyatt.” I smiled with delight.

  “I didn’t know you had a boyfriend.” She smirked. “Isn’t he your boss?”

  “Yes. Yes he is.”

  Oliver extended his hand to both of them.

  “Hey. Can you all keep it down? My head is throbbing.”

  The nurse walked in and pushed some pain medication through his IV. “There you go. You should start to feel some relief any minute now.” She smiled as she patted his arm.

  A few days later, Tanner’s condition was improving and Colette and Corey flew back to Florida. As our bodies were tangled in each other, Oliver kissed the side of my head.

  “I need to talk to you about something.”

  “What is it?”

  “I spoke with the doctor last night before we left and he said that Tanner is stable enough to be transferred to Mount Sinai Hospital in New York. Once his head injury is fully healed, we can bring him home with us and I’ll make sure he gets the best possible care, including the best physical therapy for his leg.”

  “Oliver, I don’t know what to say.”

  “Say yes and let’s go home.”

  “I would love that, but we have to talk to Tanner first.”

  “I already did last night and he said he wants to go. The doctor said he can be transferred tomorrow.”

  I sat up and looked at him, the sheet dropping from my naked body. “Tomorrow? Really?”

  His eyes raked over my body and fixated on my breasts. He brought his finger up to my nipple and softly traced around it.

  “Umm. I’m sorry. What did you say? Oh yes. Tomorrow. We’re going home tomorrow.”

  I laughed as I took the pillow and hit him with it. He sprang up and grabbed it from my hands. “I haven’t had a good pillow fight since me and Liam were kids.” He chuckled as he hit me with it. I grabbed his from underneath him and the two of us behaved like children, on our knees hitting each other with pillows, except we were completely naked.

  “Stop,” he commanded.

  “What’s wrong?”

  “Watching your breasts bounce up and down like that is driving me insane.” He grabbed the pillow from me and threw me on my back, hovering over me as he smashed his mouth to mine. “I need to fuck you right now.”

  “Stop talking,” I commanded as my breath hitched between kisses.

  We took our seats in first class and Delilah looked around as she made herself comfortable in her seat.

  “Is something wrong?”

  “No. I’m just taking in the luxury of first class.” She grinned.

  “You’ve never flown first class before?”

  Her grin disappeared as she shot me an “are you stupid” look. “No, Mr. Millionaire. I have never flown first class. Need I remind you where I came from?”

  “Sorry.” I took her hand and brought it up to my lips. “I happen to love where you came from.” He winked.

  “I’m so happy to be going home. I wish we could have flown in the helicopter with Tanner.” A distressed look swept across her face.

  “I know, but we’ll arrive at the hospital just shortly after him. I think we need to talk about something.”

  “What?”

  “We need to discuss our sleeping arrangements when we get home. I don’t want Sophie—”

  She placed her finger on my lips. “Don’t worry about Sophie. We’ll figure something out.”

  “I want you in my bed. I don’t want to sleep alone ever again, but we need to be careful where she’s concerned.”

  “Sophie is an extremely intelligent child. We’re going to have to talk to her and tell her what’s going on with us.”

  “I know and I don’t know how,” I expressed.

  “We’ll talk to her together.” She laid her head on my shoulder.

  Even though Delilah didn’t seem too worried about Sophie, I couldn’t help but be concerned about how she would feel. Delilah was right; Sophie was highly intelligent and that was what worried me.

  The plane landed and Scott drove us to Mount Sinai, where Tanner was already situated in his room. We spoke to this attending doctor and I was going to make arrangements for a physical therapist to come to the house. I had a small room off the foyer that was unfurnished and never used for anything. I arranged for a decorator to come and turn it into a bedroom for Tanner since he couldn’t walk up stairs. It would be perfect for him because everything he needed was on the first level. After spending some time with him, he ordered us to leave.

  “You have to get home to Sophie. You’ve been by my side since the accident and I’m eternally grateful for that, but I’m not a child, Delilah. I’ll be fine here. Just make sure you visit.” He smiled.
r />   She took his hand. “I feel bad for leaving you here.”

  “Don’t be. Go home to that little girl. She needs you now. I have my cell phone right here. We can face time later.”

  We said our goodbyes and Delilah stepped out of the room. Before I walked out, Tanner called to me.

  “Yeah.” I turned around.

  “Thank you, Oliver. Not only for what you’re doing for me, but for what you’ve done for Delilah. She deserves to be happy.”

  “You’re welcome and I love your sister very much.”

  ****

  As we walked up the steps, the front door flew open and Sophie came running outside.

  “Delilah! Daddy!” She threw her arms around both of us.

  “Hello, princess.” I smiled as I kissed her head.

  “Hi, my little ray of sunshine.” Delilah bent down and swooped her up. “I missed you so much.”

  Liam was standing at the door, smiling at us as we walked inside.

  “Hello, my favorite two people in the whole world.”

  “Bro.” We hugged.

  He leaned over and gave Delilah a kiss on the cheek. “I’m glad you’re back. How’s Tanner?”

  “He’s doing better. The doctor said he can probably come home in about a week.”

  “Good to hear.”

  Delilah put Sophie down as Clara walked into the foyer to greet us.

  “Welcome home, Delilah and Mr. Wyatt.” She smiled as she hugged us both.

  It was good to be home. I took our bags up to my bedroom. Clara prepared a late dinner for us and, after we ate, Delilah and I took Sophie upstairs to have a talk with her. After Delilah helped her into her pajamas, the three of us sat on the bed.

  “There’s something we need to talk to you about, princess.”

  “Is it bad?” she asked.

  I softly smiled as I pushed her hair behind her ear. “No, sweetheart. It’s not bad.”

  “What is it, Daddy?”

  I looked at Delilah and she nodded at me. “You know how you love Delilah?”

  “Yes.”

  “Well, I love her too and the three of us are going to be spending a lot more time together and we want to know how you feel about that.”

  She looked at Delilah and then back at me. “Are you and Delilah boyfriend and girlfriend?” she asked with innocence.

  “Yes, we are, princess.”

  “Does that mean you’ll be sleeping in the same bed?”

  I swallowed hard and looked at Delilah. She took Sophie’s hands.

  “Yes, Sophie. I will be moving my things into your daddy’s room and I’ll be sleeping in his bed.”

  I was mortified when she told her that.

  “Okay.” Sophie smiled.

  I let out a sigh of relief. We tucked her into bed, kissed her goodnight, and walked out of the room.

  “See, no big deal.” Delilah smiled.

  “I guess, but I’m not sure that I’m comfortable with her knowing that you’ll be sleeping in my bed.”

  “That’s not the only thing that I’ll be doing in there.” She winked.

  My cock twitched and I grabbed her, picked her up, and carried her to our room. I threw her on the bed and hovered over her.

  “I want you to show me what exactly you’ll be doing in here.” I leaned down and kissed her sexy lips.

  Chapter 35

  Delilah

  A couple of weeks had passed and Tanner was settled into his new room and the house. Oliver had hired a homecare nurse to attend to him and monitor his progress. It was good having him here with us and Sophie really liked him. Now that he was settled, it was time to focus on Sophie.

  The alarm went off and Oliver moaned. I opened my eyes and smiled as I stroked his muscular chest.

  “What’s the moan for?” I asked as I reached over and shut it off.

  “The sound of that alarm is annoying. I’m still tired.” He kissed my head.

  “You should be full of energy after what we did last night.”

  “That’s exactly the reason why I’m tired.” He smiled.

  “Don’t forget that the psychologist is coming over today around noon to meet Sophie. Will you be able to be here?” My lips pressed against his chest.

  “Yes. I’ll be here.”

  I smiled as I kissed his lips and went into the bathroom. We showered, got dressed, and when I went into Sophie’s room, she wasn’t in there. I walked down to the kitchen and poured a cup of coffee.

  “Good morning, Clara. Where’s Sophie?”

  “Good morning, Delilah. She went to Tanner’s room.”

  “Ugh. I hope she didn’t wake him.”

  I took my coffee and walked to Tanner’s room. I stood in the doorway and found Sophie sitting next to him. She was reading to him.

  “Good morning. You didn’t wake Tanner up, did you, Soph?”

  “No. He was already awake when I came in here.”

  “Why don’t you go get ready for breakfast and I’ll bring Tanner out.”

  “Okay.” She smiled as she climbed off the bed and walked out of the room.

  “She’s a great kid, Delilah. I can’t believe how smart she is. She was reading me a book about Van Gough. That’s not normal for a five-year-old.”

  I laughed. “I believe Sophie is a little genius. We have a psychologist coming to the house today to evaluate her.”

  “Damn. I wish I was that smart.”

  “If she’s bothering you, I can have a talk with her,” I said as I helped him into his wheelchair.

  “Nah. She’s not bothering me at all. I like the company. Sometimes I feel like I’m talking to an adult.” He chuckled.

  “That’s the problem. She can relate better to adults than she can to other children.”

  “If she’s so smart, maybe she needs to be with other children that are on her level. She may find that ordinary kids are boring.”

  I gave him a perplexed look. “I hadn’t thought of that. That’s a good point.”

  “Hi, I’m Dr. Pettifeur.”

  “Come in, Dr. Pettifeur. I’m Delilah Graham.”

  “You can call me Elizabeth. I hate formality.”

  She wasn’t anything that I expected. She was dressed in a pair of khakis, a white cotton button-down shirt, and a pair of loafers. Her blonde hair was pulled back in a high ponytail and she wore black-rimmed glasses. She looked to be about mid-thirties. I kept staring at her and she picked up on it because she asked if something was wrong.

  “I apologize. I’m so embarrassed. I just thought—”

  “Let me guess. You were expecting someone to look more professional? Sort of stuffy and uptight looking?” She smiled.

  I had no words. She knew exactly what I was thinking.

  “It’s okay.” She laughed. “I get that a lot. Being a child psychologist, I don’t like to intimidate the children. It helps to be more on their level. I don’t want them to think of me as a doctor because, frankly, doctors scare kids. I want them to think of me as their friend.”

  “That is so true. Again, I apologize.”

  “No worries.” She gave a warm and friendly smile.

  “Her father should be home any minute. If you’ll follow me upstairs, I can introduce you to Sophie.”

  “All right, let’s do this. It says in my notes that you’re her nanny?”

  “Yes.”

  Just as we were walking up the stairs, the front door opened and Oliver walked in.

  “Oliver, this is Dr. Pettifeur.”

  “Nice to meet you.” He held out his hand. “I’m Oliver Wyatt, Sophie’s father.”

  “Nice to meet you, Mr. Wyatt. You can call me Elizabeth.”

  We continued up the stairs and to Sophie’s room. When I opened the door, she was sitting down on her stool painting and, immediately, Elizabeth introduced herself before I could speak.

  “Hi, Sophie, I’m Elizabeth. What a beautiful painting.”

  “Thank you.”

&nb
sp; Tears sprang to my eyes when I saw what she was painting. Oliver took note of my reaction and put his arm around me.

  “If you don’t mind, I would like to talk to Sophie alone. When we’re finished, I’ll speak to both of you.” She gave us a confused look as she saw Oliver’s arm around me.

  We walked out of the room. “Are you okay?” he asked. “I noticed your reaction when you saw Sophie’s painting.”

  “It’s of my mom in Heaven. I had given her a picture of her last week. It looks like the same picture she painted of Elaine but with my mom.”

  He pulled me closer to him as we walked downstairs. “Did you tell Dr. Pettifeur, or Elizabeth, about Sophie’s behavior at the play group last week?”

  “No. Not yet. I haven’t had the chance.”

  “Well, hopefully, we’ll get some answers soon. I really didn’t expect her to look like that.”

  “Like what?” I knew he was already thinking the same thing I did.

  “So casual. She seems really nice and friendly.”

  “She seems very nice. She came highly recommended by Sophie’s doctor.”

  “Don’t you think it’s odd that she introduced herself to Sophie as Elizabeth instead of Dr.?”

  “She told me she doesn’t like formality.”

  His eyebrow arched in that sexy way that made me want to kiss him passionately. “Oh. Okay, I guess sometimes formality isn’t always a good thing.”

  I couldn’t help but laugh. “How is work going so far?”

  “It’s fine. Liam seems out of sorts today. I’m going to have to talk to him to find out what’s going on.”

  “Hmm. Girl problems?”

  “I don’t know. As far as I know, he’s not seeing anyone. I’m going to go into my study and do some work. Come get me when she’s finished with Sophie.” His lips brushed against mine.

  “I will.” I smiled as I ran my thumb across his lips.

  He leaned over and whispered in my ear. “You just made my cock twitch.”

  “Good.” I winked as I walked away and went to the kitchen to talk to Clara.

  A couple of hours had passed and Elizabeth came downstairs.

  “All set?” I asked with a smile.

  “Yes.”

  “Oliver is in his study. We can talk up there.”

  Nervousness settled inside of me as we walked into Oliver’s study. He stood up and asked Elizabeth to take a seat while I shut the door.
