Babysitting for the Billionaire Read online

  When I arrived home, the apartment was dark. Mom was fast asleep in her room. The chemo wore her out and all she did was sleep. I didn’t want to wake her so I went straight to my room. I’m sure she’d have a ton of questions for me in the morning.

  I threw my backpack on the floor and got ready for bed. After going down to the bathroom to brush my teeth and wash my face, I stumbled into bed. It was almost two in the morning and I was exhausted. I pulled the covers up and tucked my hand under my head.

  I was so tired, but sleep eluded me. My mind wouldn’t shut off. Every time I closed my eyes, I could see Mr. Savage’s face, especially that panty-dropping smile. What would it be like to kiss those lips?

  I turned over onto my back and slipped my hand into the waistband of my pajama pants. I wasn’t wearing panties and I slid my finger over my already wet and swollen clit. I may have been a virgin, but I knew how to get myself off and tonight, I was doing it while I thought about Mr. Savage.

  Ever since I was a girl, I read - a lot. I always found the cheesy Harlequin romance novels at the library and at thirteen, my favorite parts contained sex. I’d never physically experienced sex, but I’d had it a million times in my mind.

  I imagined him kissing me there on the couch and cupping my breasts. I brought my other hand up to squeeze my breast, pinching the taut nipple. A soft moan escaped me and I slipped a finger into my wet sex, pumping it in and out a few times before coming back up to tease my swollen nub.

  In my fantasy, Mr. Savage gave me that sexy smile while he got on his knees in front of me and pulled my jeans and panties off. I pictured him putting his hands on the inside of my thighs and spreading them wide before diving in. The idea of him eating me out until I exploded on his face soon had me exploding with my own climax.

  When the last wave of pleasure washed over me, I shuddered. After all the stress and tension of the day, I badly needed that release. I snuggled under my covers, and this time, sleep came quickly to me.

  I woke up the next morning to my alarm since I had an eight o’clock class. While I was in the shower, I found myself thinking about Mr. Savage again and imagining what it would be like if he had been in there with me. Would he take me up against the wall, my legs wrapped around him? Or would he have me get on my knees and give him a blow job as the warm water ran over us?

  I turned the nozzle on the shower so it would get colder. I needed to get him out of my mind or I would be late for class. I finished up my shower and when I got back to my room, I had a text from the agency, letting me know I was needed again tonight and should arrive around six.

  The butterflies went into overdrive in my stomach as I got dressed. I wore my jeans, but this time I found myself choosing a bra that was a little more flattering to my breasts and a V-neck t-shirt that showed off my cleavage quite nicely. I didn’t really have any nice clothes and I couldn’t afford to get any.

  Today was going to be the longest day ever and I couldn’t wait until six.

  Fucking coeds.

  Why the hell couldn’t I stay away from them?

  I turned around in the shower so the water sprayed my face. I placed my hand on the wall, leaning forward while I willed the water to wash away my thoughts about Avery.

  I couldn’t fuck another nanny. What the hell kind of guy was I?

  Avery was different though. Her innocence and girl next door beauty drew me to her. She was the first nanny that didn’t flirt right off the bat with me or try to get into my pants. Her flushed face when I woke her up was so damn sexy. Add to that the way her long hair tumbled over her shoulders, and I was done. The caveman in me wanted to pick her up, toss her over my shoulder, and take her to my bed.

  That only made me want her more.

  I groaned and clutched my erection with my hand, pumping it agonizingly slow. If she were here right now, I would feed it to her and watch those sweet lips wrap themselves around it. That hair of hers would be wrapped around my hand as I fucked her mouth. Would she let me deep-throat her until she gagged around me? She looked innocent, but I learned long ago, those were the dirtiest girls. Was that the case with her?

  I stroked my cock faster and squeezed my eyes shut. It wasn’t my hand getting me off; in my mind, it was Avery’s warm wet mouth. My balls got tighter and my body tensed before I released all over my hand with a ragged breath.

  Fuck.

  When my balls stopped tingling, I cleaned off and turned off the water. I got dressed quickly and ran my fingers through my wet hair before brushing my teeth. I was on my way out of the bedroom when Macy came bounding into my room.

  “Good morning, Daddy!” She was still in a princess flowy nightgown and she held the new American Girl doll Santa brought her for Christmas tightly in her arms.

  I scooped her up into my arms and kissed her cheek. “Good morning, Princess. How did you sleep?”

  “Good. How was your party?”

  “Boring.” I scrunched up my nose at her and she giggled. “How was your night with Avery?”

  “Good. I like her. She was nice and fun. She’s pretty too.”

  Yeah, she was.

  “I’m happy to hear that because she’s coming back tonight. I have another boring dinner meeting but tomorrow night I’m all yours.”

  “Yay!” She clapped her hands together in excitement and I couldn’t help but laugh. “Can we get pizza for dinner?”

  “Anything you want.” I squeezed her close. This little girl was my everything. For her sake, I would stay away from the nanny. “Let’s go eat some breakfast.”

  She nodded her head in agreement. “Miss Edna made blueberry pancakes!”

  “Your favorite!” We left my bedroom and went down to the kitchen where we had a breakfast full of laughter and sticky fingers from the syrup. I finally had to kiss Macy goodbye to head into the office. I had a long day of conference calls and meetings ahead of me. I was working on a deal that would put all of the other ones I’d pulled off to shame.

  That was why I needed Avery tonight. I was meeting with a few people that were crucial to make this a success.

  Sometimes I had a driver take me to the office, but usually I liked to drive myself. I liked the solitude and the fact that for about twenty minutes, I couldn’t be distracted by my phone. It was when I usually had my best ideas.

  The day flew by as I expected and I finally shut things down at the office to make it home to spend some time with Macy before Avery arrived. It was pouring when I left and the sky was dark as night. I thought I had heard someone mention the fact that there were severe storm warnings all night. I looked forward to falling asleep to thunderstorms later that night.

  I spent some time with Macy in the playroom before I had to get ready for my dinner. It was quarter after six and Avery still hadn’t arrived. I pulled out my phone to call her but realized I didn’t have her number handy. I wasn’t overly impressed with her tonight; second night on the job and she couldn’t bother to show up on time - if at all?

  I went into my email to find her number from the agency when I heard the doorbell ring.

  “Edna, I got it,” I called out, hoping it was Avery. I opened the door, and sure enough, there she was, soaked to the bone. Her hair hung in strands around her face and her clothes clung to her. She was shivering and her nipples were poking through her thin t-shirt. I took her arm and pulled her inside. I wrapped an arm around her, trying to warm her up some.

  “What in the world happened? Are you okay?” I leaned back toward where I’d last seen Edna. “Edna, get some towels right away please!”

  “My car broke down,” she mumbled. Her face was wet but I wasn’t so sure it was only from the rain; there may have been some tears mixed in there as well.

  “And then you walked here? Why didn’t you call me? I could have come to get you or send someone.” Edna appeared with a stack of towels and when she noticed the soaking girl in my foyer, she rushed toward her.

  “Oh my goodness, Miss Avery.” She wrapped a towel around her shivering shoulders. “What happened?”

  “Her car died and she didn’t call me for help.” I answered for her through gritted teeth.

  “You must get out of these wet clothes.” She handed Avery a couple more towels and helped her try to dry off but she was soaked to the bone. “Come to the guest room and take a hot shower. I’ll find you something to wear while these dry.” She looked at me. “You are late. I’ll take care of this.” She knew how important this dinner was, but I felt bad leaving Avery soaked and with a broken car at the side of the road.

  “Fine.” I turned to Avery. “We’re going to talk about this more when I get back and get it sorted.”

  She nodded and bit her bottom lip. I had to walk away to say goodbye to Macy; even standing her in wet clothes, she was sexy as hell and about to give me a hard-on. I was always a sucker for a damsel in distress. I loved to play the knight in shining armor.

  I found Macy sitting in front of the TV. “You’re going to have to help Miss Edna. She’s with Miss Avery in the guest bedroom. If you need them, they’re in there, okay?”

  She nodded and reached up for a hug and kiss. “Goodbye Daddy.”

  I bent down and hugged her tight before kissing her. “Goodbye, Princess.”

  As I walked to the door, I heard Avery and Edna talking. I glanced down the hallway where the guest bedroom was and saw them standing in the doorway. Avery had her shirt off and was standing there in only her bra and jeans.

  Holy shit. Her breasts were even more gorgeous than I imagined. I could see her nipples through the thin, wet fabric. They were two glorious peaks I wanted to draw into my mouth. I adjusted the raging hard-on that had grown in my pants.

  I swallowed hard and froz
e when she looked up and saw me standing there. Her eyes widened in horror and I continued walking. Shit. She probably thought I was some pervert. I wouldn’t be surprised if she was gone by the time I got back.

  I really hoped not though. There was something different about this girl the moment I met her, and after tonight, I was looking forward to getting to know her.

  Avery

  Tonight, I experienced a level of humiliation I’d never experienced before.

  First, my car died on the way to Mr. Savage’s. The check engine light had been on for the past couple of weeks, but I couldn’t find the time or the money to get it checked out. Every time I got into my car, I said a little prayer it would get me where I needed to go.

  Tonight, God didn’t answer that prayer.

  Second, my phone was dead. I was going to charge it when I got to the Savage’s. I had no way to call anyone. Like I had anyone to call to help me anyway. Maybe my best friend Lindsey, but that’s it. My mom had no way to help me and other than her, I had no one.

  Third, it was pouring rain. Not little raindrops, but literally coming down in sheets. After rummaging around in my car, I figured out I’d left my umbrella in my bedroom after using it to walk to class on a rainy day. That was my luck.

  I walked about half a mile to Mr. Savage’s, fighting back tears the whole way. It was only my second day and I was showing up late and a hot mess. He would probably ask for a new nanny after this.

  When I finally got to the house, late and soaked, Mr. Savage answered the door but his response wasn’t what I was expecting. He was angry, but not that I was late. He was upset I hadn’t called him for help. Besides the fact that my phone was dead, I was so used to taking care of myself and my mom, I never even thought about him actually helping me.

  He had Edna get me towels and dry clothes and she was so kind, it almost made me cry. It was so unexpected, I didn’t know how to react. When she wrapped me in a warm towel and took me to the bathroom for a shower while she took care of Macy for me, I thought I would burst into tears.

  But then I saw him. He was watching me while I stood there half naked. I wasn’t experienced with men, but the look on his face was clearly one of pure lust. I should have been embarrassed for him to see me that way, but it made me feel good to know he was attracted to me.

  When I caught him, he looked away quickly and scurried down the hall. I heard the door slam behind him and I put my hand over my mouth to hide the small smile that played at the corner of my lips. I didn’t want Edna to see it.

  I took a long hot shower and got dressed in the yoga pants and t-shirt Edna had left me. From the way I drowned in the t-shirt, I was pretty sure it was one of Mr. Savage’s. I held it up to my nose and took a deep breath, breathing in his scent. There was also a sweatshirt there. I slipped it on and found my way back to the family room where Macy was watching TV and Edna was putzing around in the kitchen.

  “Feel better?” She smiled when she saw me.

  “Much.” I sat on a stool at the island across from where she was cleaning up. “Do you think Mr. Savage is mad at me? That he’ll fire me?” I chewed on my bottom lip.

  “Heavens no, dear! He knows this wasn’t your fault. Above all, he’s a fair man and he wouldn’t fault you for your car breaking down. You don’t need to worry.” She hung her dishcloth over the edge of the sink. “You’re staying here tonight though. You can have the guest bedroom. Tomorrow you can figure out what’s going on with your car.”

  “I can’t impose. Besides, what would Mr. Savage say?” I shook my head. I couldn’t stay here. I had only been working here for two days. I wouldn’t feel comfortable staying overnight. I would see if my best friend could come get me and then figure something out with the car later.

  Edna narrowed her eyes at me. “You’re staying and that’s that.” She turned away from me, finished with the conversation. I opened my mouth to protest again, but Edna was stubborn and no argument I gave her would change her mind.

  I slid off of the stool and went over to sit by Macy on the couch. While I was in the shower, Edna gave Macy her bath and got her ready for bed. Her hair was still slightly damp and she was wearing another one of her fancy princess nightgowns. She turned to me with a smile. “Hi, Miss Avery.”

  “Hey there, Macy.” I tucked my feet up under me. “What are we watching?”

  “Cinderella.” She beamed at me. I noticed the night before she was going through a Disney princess phase. I loved them myself, even at my age. Who wouldn’t love the idea of being a princess?

  “Ooooh, one of my favorites.” I snuggled in next to her while we watched the movie. By the time the credits rolled around, she was leaned up against me and fast sleep. I hated to move and wake her, but I didn’t want Mr. Savage to find her not in bed. I tried to figure out how I was going to maneuver off the couch, lift her up, and carry her up to her room. She was a tiny little thing, but going that far might be too much for me.

  As I decided to wake her and hope she went back to sleep quickly, I heard the front door open. Shit! This wasn’t my night. I was stacking up a list of offenses as long as my arm and it was only my second day.

  Mr. Savage came into the family room, loosening his tie. He grinned when he saw his sleeping daughter on me.

  “Out like a light, huh?” he whispered and came over to stroke her hair.

  Her eyes slowly opened and she smiled. “Daddy,” she mumbled.

  He easily plucked her off of the couch and into his arms. “Let’s go to bed.”

  She nodded and mumbled something I couldn’t understand while wrapping her arms around his neck and snuggling into him. It was the most adorable thing I’d ever seen.

  I watched him slowly walk away with her. When they were out of sight, I turned off the movie and stood here. Now what? Did he know I was staying? Did I go to bed? This whole thing was so awkward.

  I dimmed the lights in the family room and went to the fridge for a bottle of water. I realized I hadn’t eaten anything tonight and stole a few grapes from a bowl. When I shut the door, I let out a scream. Mr. Savage was standing right there.

  “Whoa.” He chuckled and held up a hand. “You’re a little jumpy.”

  “Sorry,” I mumbled around the grapes I had in my mouth.

  “It’s okay, I get it. You’ve had a rough night. Edna told me you’re staying in the guest room.”

  “Is that okay?” I asked after swallowing. I pulled nervously on the bottom of the t-shirt.

  “Yes, we have more than enough room.” He nodded firmly and went back to sit on the couch. “Come here and let’s talk about your car.”

  I chewed on my bottom lip and joined him. He had completely removed his tie and pulled up the sleeves of his button-down shirt. His dark hair was a little bit messy on top. Even after a long day, he still looked amazing.

  “Let me know where you broke down and I’ll call a tow truck driver to go get it. I’m going to have someone take a look at it and fix it if they can.”

  “Mr. Savage-“ I shook my head. I didn’t even know if I could afford to fix my car. Why would he go ahead and do something like this without talking to me?

  “Please, call me Ben.” He interrupted me and I clamped my mouth shut. “Don’t worry about the costs. I’ll take care of it. In the meantime, I want you to stay in the guest room and my driver can take you to and from your classes.”

  Shock overcame me. “I don’t know what to say. You really don’t have to do that. Besides, I don’t know about my mother. She’s sick and I take care of her.”

  He nodded and moved a little closer to me on the couch. “Avery, I did some checking on you. You don’t have much, do you?”

  I shook my head, my eyes welling up with tears.

  “It’s always been just you and your mom.” He reached out and put his hand on my arm. “Let me help you.”

  At that moment, the emotional dam burst. I buried my face in my hands and started sobbing. I tried to breathe and control it, but all of the years of being strong came to a head and I couldn’t stop. Ben sat there next to me at first, but when I started almost hyperventilating, he moved closer and put his arm around my shoulder. I leaned into him for support, not caring that I was getting his dress shirt full of my tears and snot.
