An Offer From My Dad’s Creditor: An Age Gap Romance

He takes one, two steps toward me. Red creeps into my cheeks as he places a hand on my hip. Involuntarily, I think, He smells good. Like pine with a hint of citrus.

“Lucky for you and your parents, I’m benevolent enough to offer an alternative method of payment,” he says.

From the lust in his gray gaze, I have a pretty good idea what the “alternative method of payment” is, but I ask anyway, “What do you want, Mr. Ricci?”

“I want you to carry my child.”

His words make me lightheaded. Today was not a good day to skip dinner. “Um, what?” I ask, my legs trembling with the struggle to stay upright. Maybe I heard him wrong.

No such luck. “I want you to carry my child, Paisley.”
