So, there I was, just happily cruising through my weekly grocery shopping, when out of nowhere, this adorable little tyke, Matt, decides I'm his long-lost mama and clings to my leg like a koala.
I tried my best to shake him off but to no avail.
"Hey there, little kiddo, hate to burst your bubble, but I'm not your mama," I tried to reason, lifting him up. "And, uh, mamas are usually girls, not boys like me." But I guess he isn't to blame, I do have feminine like features.
"No! Mama liar! Mama is my mama!" The little boy protested.
Suddenly, a tall, handsome man approached, introducing himself as Matt's father. Struggling to resist the distraction of his attractiveness, I inquired if he was indeed the boy's father.
"Yes, I am," he affirmed with a frown, gesturing for Matt to come with him.
"Matt, don't you wanna go home with your papa?" I ask the little boy.
"Only if mama come home with Matt and papa!" He says cheerfully.
"Ehhh?! I can't go with you guys..-"
"W-why not?" I was cut off by matt, he was looking at me with cute teary eyes.
As Matt kept insisting he wanted to stick with his "mama," Mr. Tall, Dark, and Handsome made me an offer I couldn't refuse. Shelter, food, clothes – you name it, he'd provide, just if I played pretend as Matt's mama. It was truly tempting, but is it worth it? I was silent for awhile. This guy was hot.. and he seemed rich.. it wouldn't really hurt to agree.. but wouldn't this be risky? I don't even know the guy for more than 15 minutes.. he could be extremely dangerous.
I hesitated, weighing the risks. Hot dad, rich promises – tempting, but was this some sketchy setup? I looked at him up and down. Hmm.. he looks like a mob. No.. maybe he is one. B*tch I dunno? Should I politely decline.. or should I just make an excuse..?
While I mulled over the pros and cons, Matt, with those teary puppy eyes, begged me to join the party. The hot dad, losing patience, decided for me instead.
"Silence means yes, darling." He says
"Huh??" I was confused- darling??? What's up with him..?
Lost in thought, I miss the cue, and next thing I know, he's calling me "darling." Confused and all, he grabs Matt, pulls me into his car, and speeds off. Now, I'm left wondering what the heck I just signed up for as Matt's stand-in "mama."
What if this unexpected journey turns my life upside down in ways I never imagined?
End.
Thank you for reading the prologue of "His Son's Mama"!! It's been a while since I last wrote anything so I hoped you enjoyed this little preview of my new novel. I'll be uploading chapters soon!! stay tuned and stay safe!
I was pushed roughly inside. The car looked so nice and expensive.. Hell, I would never be able to afford something like this.
I groaned and sat up properly. "Ow.. can't you be a bit more gentler?" I cross my arms.
He chuckles in a.. seductive way. This was quite arousing..
"Fiesty. I like you." He says, hopping into the car with Matt.
"Uhm.. thanks? I guess?" I scratch the back of my head.
"Drive." He orders the chauffeur. Few moments later, the engine turns on and we started moving.
"Where are we headed?" I ask.
"To your new home. Our home." He replies.
Matt was giggling cutely in happiness as he was burying his face in my chest.
"Cutie patotie.." I rub matt's head.
"I'm glad you're just going along with all of this with no resistance whatsoever." He giggles.
"I could tell you're some sorta mob, I'd rather not get hurt. Plus you're giving me a free house, free food, free everything! Who would refuse to that? And I absolutely love kids! They're just so cute and loveable! So you're basically paying me for taking care of something I love!" I said.
He was in disbelief. "you could tell..? that's some keen observation. Nobody seems to have noticed but you. But why wasn't your first instinct to drop matt and run? Why did you choose to talk to me so calmly, huh?" He asks.
"Uhmm.. I thought I got the job. Why are you interviewing me?" I asked.
"A- you know what? Nevermind." He said. "He's too innocent.." he muttered.
"Hm? Did you say something?" I asked, I didn't hear properly since I was busy hugging and playing with Matt..
"It's nothing. Oh yeah, we haven't seemed to introduce ourselves yet, huh?" He said.
"Oh my god, yeah! Uh soooo my name's Kieran. That's it. No last name, no nothing." I said .
"You.. don't have a last name? Middle name?" He asks.
"No.. I don't.. I just- I'm an orphan. The workers at the orphanage said I was abandoned outside their door." I said sadly.
"Ah.. I'm so sorry to hear that.. ahem.. well, I'm Alistair Atticus Luciano. You can just call me Al. And as for little o'l matt here his full na-"
"Mama!!! My name is Matteo Alonzo Luciano!"
Matt cuts off his dad.
"Wow! You have such a dashing name!" I clap my hands as I praised matt, who was giggling once again.
"What about me? Is my name not dashing?" He pouts, making a sad face.
"Ehhh??" I was in complete confusion.
"What exactly are you trying to do here?" I look at him with an unamused face.
"Hehe.. what ever do you mean?" Alistair said cheekily.
I sigh. "I'm supposed to act as matt's mother, not your N lover." Eyy that rhymes!!
"Well to be able to be matt's mama,you have to be married to me." He said.
"What? No. You only told me to act as matt's mama.. not actually be the real deal- for god's sake fix you and your real wife's problems already."
"What're you talking about? I don't have a wife." He said.
"Wha- then matt-"
"He's not mine. Well not biologically, he's my deceased sister's son. I just adopted him." He said.
"Oh.. ah- well I'm sorry for assuming.. but I really don't wanna be your so called 'wife' I just want money and to take care of matt."
"You want money? Oh don't worry darling, I have plenty of it to spoil you. You're a gold digger? It's okay, I don't mind. As long as you stay and be my wife." He says, taking my hand and kissing the back of it.
"We literally just met like I dunno, 15 minutes ago?" I said. Man, I get it. He's hot, rich and stuff- but really now?? Aren't we moving too fast?
"That doesn't matter.. I didn't believe in love at first sight.. until I met you.. I've.. never been able to talk so openly to someone else before.."
In my mind: B*tch what the fwaaakkk?? What in heaven's earth is he talking about? Such a sad and inspirational speech.. too bad it just went in my ear and out the other.
"Oh.. I don't know what to say.. I just- give me some time.. atleast." I can't do this no moreeee!!! Save me mother!! Oh wait. I have no mother..
"Yes.. thank you.. Kieran.. darling.. for being so understanding. All of the people I've confessed to have always had negative reactions to my confessions.. I feel so happy.." he was hugging me and sniffling. Awh.. he's actually so sweet.. man, I feel bad now.
"There there.. it's okay." I pat and rub his back to calm him down.
"Papa stop!!! You squish Mee!! It hurting!" Matt cries out loud as we was getting squished in the middle.
"Aish. Sorry Matt." He hugs matt.
"Wahhh!! Nooo!! Mama help meee!" Matt whines for my help.
I giggled and thought they had a cute father son relationship.
Just then, the car stops.
"Boss, we've arrived." The chauffeur said.
I wonder what the place I'm going to be living in soon looks like..
I hop out of the car.. gasp. "Woah!!"
To be Continued...
My jaw dropped. I was now standing Infront a huge and absolutely gorgeous mansion.
"Holy moly.. how rich even are you guys??"
Alistair chuckles, "It's a secret." He winks at me as he took my hand and led me inside.
"Mama mama! We go in Matt's room!!" Matt jumps up and down.
"Okay sweetie, show me your ro-"
I stopped talking when I saw two men walking towards us
"What's with the prostitute?" One of the men said.
"Be nice." The other man nudges him with his elbow.
"My name's Viktor Rodriguez, it's a pleasure to meet you.. may I know your name?" Viktor takes my hand and kissed the back of it. Making me blush, he's so well mannered.. but- why is he doing this? Isn't this only done to girls? Did he think I was a girl?!
I swiftly take my hand back "Hi, erhm..nice to meet you too. I'm Kieran.. and uh-"
"He's my bride to be." Alistair cuts me off.
"Well it's about time" the other man commented.
"Shut up and introduce yourself already." Viktor glares at him.
"Sheesh, okay fine. The name's James. James Reid. Pftttt HAHAHAHAH! I'm just playin' with ya, my last name is Martinez." James clicked his tongue and winked at me. What a weirdo.
"Kieran, are you of legal age? You seem young. Are you sure you're not taken here against your own will?" Viktor asks, bending down to my height. Which was kinda insulting not gonna lie.
"Okay first of all, I'm 28. Mind you. And second of all! What could possibly make you think I was a minor?! Huh?? And lastly!! Actually yes, I am taken here against my own free will. But whatever. He said he'd be providing me with everything I need and want. so that's basically a win win scenario." I said.
"PFTTTT!! HAHAHA! I LIKE THIS GUY!" James laughed out loud.
"Oh my, well I apologize for mistaking your age.. you look.. really young. Ahem. Well I hope you last. You're not the first person the young master took in." Viktor leans in closer and whispered in my ear.. "be careful, Alistair isn't what he pretends to be. He's really dangerous and I suggest you don't anger him."
I was about to say something back when Alistair suddenly pulled me towards him and hugged me tight.
"Mine. Don't you dare.. get close to him.." Alistair said menacingly..
I gulped. Trembling in his arms.
"A-ah.. did I scare you? I'm sorry.. I didn't mean to." He loosened his grip and sniffed my neck. "Mm.. you smell so good.." he muttered to himself. But I heard it. And it was freaky as hell..
"This psycho.." Viktor said, glaring at Alistair.
"Uncle, what does psycho mean?" Matt asked.
"O-oh.. you'll know it when you're older, matt. Ehe.." Viktor said nervously as he picked matt up.
"Hah! Serves you right! Blehhh!" James stuck his tongue out at Viktor.
"Why you little-"
"A little help please?" I said while struggling to escape Alistair's embrace.
"Nah, He's your problem. Don't get us involved." James replied.
"Seriously now?!" I said, pissed off.
"Kieran.. Stay still. You're breaking my heart.." Alistair whines.
"Papa! Let mama go! He don't like your Huggies!" Matt makes Viktor put him down.
"Take this!" Matt ran towards Alistair and started hitting his legs.
"Hey! Wait! ow! Matt stop that!" Alistair groans in pain and lets me go.
"Hayahhh!! My mama! Not for papa!" Matt keeps hitting Alistair's legs.
"Now now, matt. I'm free now. See? Thank you Matt, my hero.." I hug him and kiss his forehead.
"I Mama's super hero! Woohoo!" Matt cheers.
"Small but terrible indeed." Viktor chuckles
"HAHAHAHA I CAN'T STOP LAUGHING" James laughed out loud.
"Tch.. whatever." Alistair groans and rubs his legs.
"Naughty Matt, you hit me. That's bad you know? You shouldn't do that to your papa." He frowns and crosses his arms.
"Papa deserves it! Matt not naughty! I do good!" Matt stomps his foot.
Good grief, he seems to be acting normal now. Thank goodness.
As Matt and his father quarrelled I scooted over towards Viktor and James.
"Does he always act like that?" I whisper to them.
"Who? Alistair?" James asked.
"No, he doesn't. Which is quite concerning.." Viktor answered, furrowing his eye brows.
"I know right? It's like he's on dr*gs or some typa sh*t." James said, shrugging.
Alistair somehow heard that and got furious.
"What did say you p*nk?" Alistair said angrily. He was clenching his fists hard and I could even see veins on them. This is dangerous..
"Okayy so-.. good luck, you guys deal with that." I said to the both of them before grabbing Matt and running away to somewhere I don't know in the huge mansion. I didn't do or say anything wrong but- that was kinda scary.
