billionaire baby delivery romance novel

This was my first time in the bustling city of Las Vegas. The radiant colored lights shone and illuminated every path on the streets such that it was a  blend of streets with variant colors. Sitting on the window side of the train was worth it. From watching the tall grasses of the countryside to reaching the low grasses and then the cheerful light of the city. I traced the pace of the train with my hand as we rode through the city of Las Vegas.

Party clothes, business clothes, night street clothes, people of different skin colors, backgrounds, and personalities walked through the streets, all minding their business, oblivious to the moving train. Back home, everyone would stop and stare at the train for a while before moving on with their lives.

A blast of music filled the air and ahead we could see a group of ballet dancers spinning through the streets on their toes. Some people stopped to watch them, while the rest moved on like nothing was happening. As we rode past them, I turned my neck and watched till they disappeared out of sight.

I’ve always loved ballet dancing. I had practiced a few times back at home with the steps drawn in magazines. I could make a few introductory steps but that was it. I wasn't good enough and opportunities are limited where I come from.

“Come out of your thoughts Alexa! This night is ours to explore!!!”

Ava screamed at the top of her lungs as she shook me vigorously.

Everyone in our train compartment turned their eyes to us. We looked like five country girls, coming into Las Vegas for the first time. But no, it was just four of us though, Hazel has been here before, she once told us her man works in Las Vegas.

Emma, Hazel, Sophia, Ava, and I. The five best girls in their country home Idaho. We had taken a morning train from Idaho Fall to Las Vegas, a 10-hour journey to celebrate my birthday in arrears.

I was the youngest of them all and as I finally turned legal our girl culture demanded that we celebrate in style.

I stared wildly at Ava. She wasn't one to shout. She was naïve and quiet, except when she was hyper. Though I expect her to be hyper. Who wouldn't be in Las Vegas?

“Ava, don’t shout, please. People are staring.”  I whispered to her.

“They can stare. We are beautiful and then there’s you with fire-colored hair! You’re so beautiful that you’re a billionaire kind of girl!” Hazel exclaimed and winked at me.

We burst into hearty laughter.

“Billionaires love blonde skinny girls, the kind in Victoria’s magazine. And we ain’t no blondes here.” Emma rolled her eyes at Hazel.

Sophia popped a sweet and put it in Hazel’s mouth.

“Don’t argue girl, we know you and Emma can increase the speed of the train with the energy of your arguments” Sophia said.

I laughed, Sophia was the brake lever inclined to stop Emma and Hazel from starting their argument engines.

Today was going to be fun. At least that’s what my Mama had said when she did her tarot reading for me this morning. Today was set to be the beginning of my life. At the end of the day, we would see the new world awaiting me.

The train came to a stop at Sants' train station.

We alighted looking like the five musketeers, strong, bold, and beautiful. We had invested a lot to make our dresses and I was in a flowery black dress with red boots matching the color of my hair.

“We are going to Inégalé. It’s like a 20-minute drive from here. So, we enter the cab.” Hazel announced behind me.

“Hope it’s somewhere we can afford?” Emma said giving Hazel a side eye

“Yes, I booked there. I’ll take care of the bills” Hazel said and turned towards me with a smile,

“Anything for my favorite girl”

I gave her a broad smile back.

“We would also lodge there for the night when we’re done dancing and taking shots with Alexa. So, after clubbing, we get some shut-eye and get back to Idaho by nightfall tomorrow” she finalized.

“That’s a good plan. You had everything arranged for us. You’re the sweetest girl” I said and went closer to her to rub her shoulders slightly.

“Don’t praise her, we are all sweet, aren’t we Ava?” Sophia asked.

“We are!” Ava replied with enthusiasm.

I laughed.

Hazel was the most exposed of us all and she did a good job taking us to places for exploration. Although we were in the same age grade, she was more experienced and therefore like an older sister to us.

“We have been saving a year for this! And here we are!” Ava exclaimed as she turned round and round taking in the environment.
