"What do you mean?" he coughed slightly

"Tell me I'm lying, and you don't wince everything you get around to saying that I'm pregnant?" Raven fired back at him, daring him to deny it. Praying that he did.

"Raven-- it's not that easy" he said testily

"You can't say it, can you? It's because I'm telling the truth. I knew this was a mistake, and you didn't really want to be a father" Raven blinked back the tears threatening to fall.

Gosh when had that even pooled there in the first place? Insecurity was a bitch.

"Well maybe you're right. Maybe I don't want to be a father. Maybe I shouldn't be a father. But that doesn't change the fact that I am excited that you're carrying my baby. Because there is no absolutely no other person for me, who would have been suited to do this role, other than you. But the same doesn't go for me, Raven. It's the sad truth. I don't think I'm good enough to be anyone's father. But it's not the same for you. You'd make an amazing mom. Because you're like the best of all of us, and if a baby is what you want--"

"What I want? So you're simply going to shirk out of fathering duties because you don't think you're good enough to be a father? Well guess what? You are. Because you were certainly good enough to engage in the act that created the child in the first place! Listen Mikhail, I'm scared too. The baby wasn't planned, in case that ever crossed your mind. This just happened, but you don't see me shirking or denying whether I should be a mom or not. I need you now, more than ever, for both myself, and for the baby. Yet all you have to say to me, is you don't think you can be it's father?"

"Half the things you just said, I never said them" he felt the need to point out.

"You implied them!" she fumed

"You will also keep quiet, and let me finish Moya zhenshchina"

Raven huffed, but she kept quiet, to let him speak

"Raven, did you hear me say that I was excited?"

"You mean right after you said you don't want to be a father? Yeah sure, I heard you say just how excited you were" she muttered sarcastically

"Raven, I didn't plan for this. What kind of influence would someone like me have on a child?"

"A good one. The influence of a father, his father, for starters."

"And I want our child, to have that. Truly I do"

"So? I guess we're on the same page then. Because that is what will happen. I am not raising this child alone, I won't let you do that to me" she asserted

"And you know me enough to know I'd never let you go through a process like that, all on your own. I love you, Raven. Today, forever."

"And I you, Mick. Today, forever" she finished off, reluctantly smiling. He didn't deserve to be forgiven this quickly and this easily.

Mikhail finished off his cup of coffee, and walked around the desk to where she was.

"Did we just have a fight?" he teased

"Maybe. It's just my duty as mom, to get the head of my baby's father, on the right track" she retorted

"Hmm. I like the sound of that." and he kissed her, slowly, searingly. "I want to make love to you" he murmured against her lips.

"Hmmm. I don't want that. You deserve to be punished a little bit. I don't want you to make love to me"

"Vy nemnogo ocharovatel'ny... tell the truth and shame the devil," Mikhail urged, lifting a hand and trailing a long finger mesmerically, slowly along the length of her full lower lip.

Raven jerked her head back, startled by the tingle of awareness his touch ignited, which was already traveling straight to the heart of her body. "Are you the devil? Well, don't touch me..."

"You don't mean that. I might as well be the devil" Mikhail husked, shifting closer still to angle his handsome dark head down and lower his mouth to hers. "You and I both know you don't mean that."

A few seconds later, he let go of her lips, and Raven was shocked into stunning pleasure, when his mouth swooped down and closed over the peak of one breast instead, through her dress and lace bra. He started with his tongue, and then the glide of his teeth followed and she moaned. Pregnancy had made her breasts extra sensitive!

"We're going to do things my way, this time around, Moya zhenshchina," Mikhail informed her, his erotically handsome features taut with determination.

"Right?" Raven repeated in disbelief. "Keep the control freakiness for your employees"

"And you being one of them, you mean? Or the last I checked, you were still working for me, correct? And to get our facts straight, I am not a control freak," Mikhail growled.

Fun fact. Control feaks certainly didn't like to be told that they were controlled freaks.

And yet, he so was; Raven thought. She cupped his face and connected with smoldering black eyes that made her heartbeat hammer. He was beautiful. It was just a beauty in him you came to realize over time. Her mind took her back to the time she'd first met him, and how she'd thought he wasn't pleasing to look at, because his beauty wasn't conventional. He wasn't blonde. He certainly wasn't green eyed. But in truth, he had a beauty that defied definition. He had a face that was nothing short of stunning. The type that could bring just about any woman to her knees. His beauty was simply indescribable, and she loved looking at him.

He kissed her again with that sensual full mouth and the ability to think fell completely away.

He made quick work of her clothes, and before she knew it, they were off her, and they both stood there naked.

Swiftly, with one slip of his hand, he cleared the large glass table, of everything that had been on it, before raising her and placing her flat on it. Then he began licking and kissing his way down her body. Her hands dug into his shoulders, and suddenly it was a challenge to breathe.

He was getting dangerously close to her sex, and she thought he might be going to do... that, so she tried to urge him back up again but either he failed to take the hint or he deliberately put himself out of reach.

Call it Pregnancy hormones, but she was embarrassed, at Mikhail giving her oral sex. And really, she shouldn't be, because he's done so bazillions of times, and there was nothing to hide any longer, because he now knew every part of her body, like it was his own. But that still didn't stop the blush from rising up her cheeks, nor did it prevent her from uttering her next set of words:

"Mikhail... I don't think I want that."

A/N: yass ladies and gentlemen! Five chapters in a row. In a day! And this shouldn't have been all, actually. I thought I would also be able to post the remain three to four chapters accompanying Mikhail and Raven's scene in this suite, but I am so tired, hungry, and mighty exhausted. And I've done absolutely nothing with my morning, except type novel chapters. So, I guess I'll have to postpone all that and see you guys next week instead, with the remaining chapters of this sex scene, and the remaining chapters of the both of them altogether, in this love suite, or hotel.

So if you loved these chapters, don't forget to vote, drop a comment, and follow me.
