The Blacks: Bonus Prequel (The Black Diamond Series Book 5) Read online

  Justin moved her hair away from her neck and breathed against her neck, “We're not going to rush, island girl. I'm going to make sure you like it...a lot.”

  Joanna smiled as Justin began to caress her naked body along with the warm water. The combination on her shoulders, breasts and stomach made her breathing quicken. When his hand reached lower to fondle her woman's jewel she froze.

  “Relax...” he murmured in her ear as she grabbed his arm.

  “No one has touched me there...” she explained quietly.

  He stroked her slowly. “I know...I'm making it mine.” His ministrations deepened and began to give her pleasure causing her to lean back into his warm body.

  “You feel so good...” he told her. “So warm...and so tight.”

  Justin removed his hand and turned her in his arms taking her mouth. Joanna held on to his muscled biceps as he suckled her lips and teased her tongue. She felt his rigid manhood against her and reached to touch it. He sucked in a breath as she took him into her warm hand.

  “I'm going to show you exactly what to do with that,” he said against her open mouth.

  Justin paused and reached for the liquid body gel on a nearby shelf. Shutting the water, he poured some of the product into his hands and began to lather her body. Beginning at her neck and shoulders he started soaping her from head to toe. He gave extra attention to certain spots before turning her around and beginning again, gliding down her back.

  Joanna closed her eyes as his big hands rubbed and squeezed her bottom then down her legs and back up again. When he began to lather himself she stopped his hands.

  “Can I do that?” she asked looking up at him.

  Justin handed her the gel and she placed some in her hands before applying them to his body. Joanna had never touched a naked man before. She and her girlfriends had however looked at photos of undressed men although none of the photos had compared to what she was seeing in Justin Black. She wanted to know what he felt like and what he tasted like. Joanna wasn't the only virgin in her group of friends, but the experienced ones had told the others many tales of delight. She wondered if Justin was going to do some of those things to her.

  As she lathered his strong body, she thought that she had to be the luckiest one in her group because she was sure none of them had been with a man like Justin Black. Most of their escapades had been with the local boys that were their age. Justin Black was all man...and then some, she thought as she knelt to soap his legs. His package was directly in her face and she admired its impressive form.

  Justin helped her to her feet before restoring the warm spray to them both. After rinsing them completely, he took Joanna in his arms kissing her until she wrapped her arms around his neck bringing their naked bodies together. He continued to tease and suckle her lips until she was breathing heavily.

  Justin brought a hand to her face and held her in place while staring deeply into her eyes. “I'm going to do many different things to you. Don't be afraid to show me what you like. The more you like it, the more I'll give to you.” His hands came up to cup her firm, naked breasts where he tweaked and rubbed her engorged nipples. When he bent and replaced his hand with his mouth she inhaled sharply as he licked and sucked her damp, dark circles.

  “Do you like that?” he whispered against the aching nub.

  Joanna arched into his waiting mouth wanting more. “Yessss...”

  “Do you want more?”

  Joanna responded by grabbing his head and placing his mouth back on her skin that was now damp from his mouth. As he slowly gave her the attention she desired she felt the pull of his ministrations deep within her womb triggering the liquid release of her desire. Joanna moaned loudly holding him tightly in place to prevent him from halting the storm that was rapidly building inside of her.

  Justin moved from her breast and she groaned in protest as he kissed his way down her flat stomach to her woman's vee which was covered with a small patch of hair. Kneeling he rubbed his face around the area then began to place warm kisses against her heated flesh. Justin took his hand and touched her gently spreading her feminine wetness over her virginal core.

  “Open your legs wider,” he commanded huskily.

  Joanna obeyed by spreading her legs further apart allowing him the access he required. When he positioned her over his face and his lips covered her opening she reached for the shower handle to balance herself against the sudden weakness in her knees.

  “Justin...” she said breathily.

  Justin didn't respond as he got to the business at hand and feasted on her tender flesh. Joanna pressed closer enjoying the naughty delight he was providing. Justin cradled her behind, holding her in place as he brought her to her first climax...ever. Joanna came with her head thrown back and her eyes tightly shut. When she re-opened them she looked down into obsidian orbs ready to treat her to all kinds of delights.

  He smiled up at her. “Did you like that?”

  Joanna nodded unable to find her voice at the present time.

  “Do you want more?”

  She touched his bearded face. “A lot more...” she whispered.

  Justin stood and lifted her into the air before wrapping her legs around his waist. He stepped out of the shower and carried her toward the bedroom.

  “What's my name, island girl?” he whispered striding out of the bathroom.

  Joanna held on to his shoulders as they moved into toward the large bed. “Justin,” she replied.

  “Justin what?” he asked stopping at the bed.

  She looked at him. “Justin Black.”

  He laid her on the bed climbing over her. “That's what I want to hear.” Justin lifted her arms above her head and began kissing her. Joanna welcomed his muscled weight on top of her as she wound her legs around him. Justin lifted his head and stared into her face.

  “You are very beautiful Joanna,” he told her softly.

  She blushed. “And you are very handsome Justin Black.”

  “Do you want me to make love to you now?” he asked and Joanna smiled. She understood that he was giving her one final way out if she had changed her mind. However, her mind had been made up at the nightclub. She knew she would give herself to Justin Black and not just for tonight.

  “Yes, Justin Black. I want you to make love to me. Right now,” she said staring up at him.

  Justin touched her cheek. “I promise to take care of you Joanna.”

  He began kissing and preparing her for their joining and when the time came Joanna felt him easing gently inside of her. When he began mating with her Joanna thought that there could not be anything better in the entire world as she felt his hardened flesh stroking her slowly then faster, then slowly again.

  Justin's pace varied as he felt her body's response. He tasted her lips and tongue while guiding her in the way of physical love. Over and over he entered and retreated from her tight, wet and warm opening. Joanna's release came in tandem with her screaming his name and he soon followed her.

  After a few minutes, Justin removed his weight from her and laid on his side pulling her closer. He watched her silently for a few long moments and she studied him in return.

  “Are you okay?” he asked.

  She smiled softly at him. “Yes, I’m fine.”

  “So, do you think we can do this?” he asked stroking her hip.

  Joanna touched his face. “Have you been married before Justin?”

  He shook his head. “No.”

  “Why do you want to get married?” she asked again.

  “Like I explained, I want a wife and a son.”

  “Do you have a family?” she inquired.

  Justin shook his head again. “No. Not any that I consider family.”

  Joanna looked away. “I'm not in love with you Justin,” she told him honestly. “I don't even know if I want to love anybody.”

  He turned her face back to him. “I don't want your love Joanna. Love is something that I never want any part of ever again. What we have
is an agreement. I will provide everything you desire and you will give me a son and be my wife in every sense of the word.”

  Joanna touched his arm. “I really want to go to school Justin. If I'm not pregnant right away will you let me go at least for a year before having a baby?” she asked earnestly. “After that I promise I will give you a son.”

  Justin paused as he watched her. He could hear the desire in her voice to attend the college. He didn't want a recalcitrant bride and wife, but he did want a son and he wanted him sooner than later. As he looked into her eager eyes though, he knew this was something that she longed for and not even he could deny her. He knew for himself how it felt to long for something and never receive it.

  “One year Joanna, then after my son is born we can discuss a way for you to continue if you want.”

  Joanna smiled happily and threw her arms around him. “Thank you Justin!”

  He held her closely for a moment before she pulled back and smiled at him.

  “I need you to tell me what you want me to do about your father,” Justin told her.

  Her eyes widened. “You mean you'll really do whatever I ask?”

  He nodded and she answered, “I'm really more concerned about my mother. I want her to be taken care of.”

  “Then it's done.”

  Joanna continued to look at him. “What are you going to do to my Daddy?” she inquired.

  “I'll make sure he can survive.”

  She smiled wickedly. “That's good enough for me.”

  Justin laughed. “You are something else Joanna Greer.”

  Joanna joined him in laughter as he flipped onto his back and placed her atop of him.

  “Do you know how to ride horses?” he asked giving her a dark stare.

  She nodded as she settled over him. “Yes, I've had lessons.”

  “Come ride a thoroughbred, island girl.”

  He began to slide inside her body and her eyes widened in delight. “I think I'd like that...a lot,” she managed to say before she began the ultimate ride.

  Chapter 5

  Joanna could not believe it had been two years since she's agreed to marry Justin Black and now here she was about to deliver his son in a few weeks. Leaving her home in Atlanta had not been as difficult as she'd initially thought. Sure, she had missed her friends, but Justin had been a man of his word and allowed her to attend the school in LA where she'd made a few new ones. Justin had waited until she'd finished her first year before they had purposely began making a baby, although they had practiced very much during the year he was waiting and she had liked it...a whole lot.

  Her mother was arriving soon since she was coming to stay with Joanna to help out with the baby. Joanna, true to her word had not spoken to her father since the day she'd left with Justin. Although Justin had assured her that she had not been part of the deal with her father, just the fact that her father had tried to send her away to save his new family was more than enough for Joanna to sever all ties with him.

  Justin had paid her father just enough for him and Paula to move into a smaller home and live comfortably in a downsized lifestyle. After a few months of living this new lifestyle, Paula had filed for divorce and found a new man who could keep her in the way she desired. Joanna's father now lived alone and had become a recluse. Joanna's mother was kind enough to check in on him from time to time, to make sure he was taking adequate care of himself.

  Joanna had not lived another day in her father's house after her first night with Justin. He'd taken her home to gather some of her things and moved her into his rental house until they had departed for LA. When they arrived in LA, Justin had taken her to an acquaintance who was a judge and they were promptly married, then Joanna Greer had instantly become Joanna Black.

  Joanna had learned very quickly what Justin Black expected in a wife. She was to look beautiful, entertain his business associates and light his bed on fire. In return, Joanna's every wish was granted. In her mind, it was the perfect situation. There were no undying confessions of love on either part and that suited her just fine.

  Joanna watched as Justin entered the door with her mother in tow. Alana Greer spotted her very pregnant daughter and immediately rushed to her side.

  “Joanna, you look beautiful!” Alana exclaimed hugging her daughter.

  “So do you Momma,” Joanna told her youthful looking mother.

  Alana turned to Justin. “You must be taking good care of her.”

  Justin smiled. “I try.” He turned to Joanna. “She is a handful though.”

  “I am not!” Joanna huffed, turning to him.

  Justin laughed. “I'll take your bags to your room Alana.” He picked up her luggage and headed up the stairs.

  Alana turned to her daughter. “Are you giving that man trouble?” she asked.

  “Of course not.” Joanna turned and headed towards the kitchen and her mother followed. “Do not let Justin fool you. He is definitely the one in control here.”

  In the kitchen, Joanna retrieved a glass and turned to her mother. “Would you like a drink momma?”

  Her mother declined and Joanna nodded then poured herself a glass of orange juice. Alana watched her daughter.

  “How are things with you and Justin?” Alana inquired.

  Joanna shrugged and rubbed her extended belly. “We're fine. His son will be here in a few weeks and he's ecstatic.”

  Alana raised a brow. “Is he the only one ecstatic?”

  Joanna took a seat at the counter and looked at her mother. “What are you asking?”

  “This is your first baby Joanna and although you're glowing physically, you don't seem like a happy expectant mother,” her mother explained.

  “This is my only baby,” Joanna corrected taking a sip from her glass. “That's all I agreed to.”

  Alana took the seat next to her daughter. “Joanna...”

  “Look Momma, I never wanted to be married nor have children. I accepted Justin's offer because it was the only way I could have all that I wanted...you too.”

  “I didn't ask you to do this Joanna,” her mother reminded her.

  Joanna smiled. “But you've reaped the benefits of Justin's wealth all the same.”

  “Are you even going to try to be a good wife and mother?” her mother asked.

  Joanna finished her drink and stood walking to the sink. “I'm going to do as Justin asks as long as he keeps his end of our bargain.”

  Justin entered the kitchen looking between the two women. “I'm going to the office now so I will see you ladies this evening,” he announced.

  Alana smiled. “Thank you Justin for picking me up.”

  “It's always a pleasure to see you Alana.” Justin smiled at her as he walked over to Joanna.

  “Do you need anything?” he asked Joanna looking down at her.

  She smiled. “No, I'm fine.”

  He nodded. “You know how to reach me.”

  “Yes.”

  Justin placed his hand on her stomach and gently caressed it. “I'll bring you some of that gelato you like on my way home.”

  Joanna placed her hand over his. “Thank you Justin.”

  He bent and kissed her cheek before turning towards Alana smiling wickedly. “Have fun with your daughter, Alana.”

  “I'll try,” Alana responded watching the couple.

  Justin departed for the office leaving the two women alone. Alana followed her daughter up to her private room where Joanna laid across the bed and her mother took a seat on the edge looking down at her only child.

  “Joanna, why don't you try to be happy with Justin? Make your marriage real,” she suggested.

  Joanna sighed. “Momma please! You just got here and you're already on my back.”

  “I'm trying to help you Joanna. Justin is a good man, the two of you could be happy together.”

  “I'm happy right now Momma.”

  Her mother frowned. “You two act like buddies, not husband and wife. You didn't even kiss him goodbye.�
�

  Joanna turned onto her side. “Justin doesn't want that.”

  Alana frowned. “Then how did you two manage to make a baby?”

  “You know how babies are made Momma.” Joanna smiled.

  “Hmmm...you seem to enjoy that part.”

  “Yes, I like it a lot...with Justin.” Joanna blushed.

  Alana touched her daughter's dark hair. “Do you want to spend the rest of your life simply having good sex with Justin?”

  “I don't see anything wrong with that. We both enjoy it.”

  “What if one of you decides that you need more?” her mother questioned.

  Joanna smirked. “We won’t. We have an agreement.”

  Alana shook her head. “Joanna, the heart doesn't recognize agreements.”

  “You married Daddy for love and look at what happened. I don't want that!” Joanna told her adamantly.

  “If you never give your heart to anyone, you'll never know if you can find happiness.” Alana looked Joanna in the eyes; beautiful dark eyes that she'd watched grow into this fierce young woman.

  Joanna smiled at her mother. “I'll be fine Momma. Don't worry about me.”

  Worry was exactly what Alana did over the next two weeks with the couple. While Justin was attentive and cordial to Joanna, the pair never appeared affectionate in her presence. Alana knew her daughter and believed one day that Joanna was going to need to feel the love of a man, and not just physically. Alana wondered how the couple would handle that situation and would their agreement survive the test?

  Alana was finishing her coffee when she heard her daughter calling for Justin from upstairs. The two met at the stairway before he took the stairs two at a time to get to Joanna. When Alana got to the room, Justin was lifting Joanna from the bed.

  “Joanna! Is it time?” Alana asked.

  Joanna grabbed her belly. “Oh Momma...the pain!” she moaned.

  “I'm taking her to the hospital.” Justin announced carrying her toward the door.
