He honestly believed that which was another reason I loved him. “Did Rajan go home?”

“About an hour ago. He left you some extra pineapple pie in the fridge.”

“Thank you again for getting us a chef.” Food was my love language and Hale spoke it very well.

He toyed with the shell buttons of my sundress, sliding them free until my dress parted, enough to fully expose my breasts and belly. His fingers trailed slowly from the lace of my panties to my collar bone and my nipples tightened.

Flattening his palm on my stomach, he asked, “Anything yet?”

It was still too soon, but I was beginning to suspect Hale found a sort of kink in trying to plant his seed in me. I only stopped taking the pill the day after the wedding, but I wasn’t sure how long it took to fully get out of my system.

“I’ll talk to my doctor when we get home. But it’s probably going to take a while, Hale.”

“I can be patient while being persistent.”

The hammock rocked as he cupped my breast, pulling my puckered nipple to his mouth. I arched beneath his touch, shutting my eyes as he teased the tip with his tongue. The more he ground his body against mine the more the hammock shifted.

“We should go to the bedroom.”

“What’s wrong with right here?”

The hammock wobbled and I clung to the sides. “I’m afraid we’re going to flip. I can’t relax.”

“I won’t let you flip.” He plumped my breasts and went back to what he was doing.

“Ah! Did you just bite me?”

He gave me a devilish grin. “Did it hurt?”

I frowned. It was more shocking than anything else. “A little.”

“Did you like it?”

My cheeks heated. “A little.”

“Interesting.” He nipped me again.

“Hale!”

“I like your nipples dark and swollen.” He brushed his lips softly over the hard tips. “Let me make you come this way.”

I doubted that was possible. “You can try.”

“Is that a challenge?”

I leaned back and stretched open my arms. “I’m all yours.”

“Good girl.” He kissed one nipple. “Such a good little wife.” Then he kissed the other. “So eager to please.” When his mouth closed over the tip he wasn’t messing around.

My back bowed and I moaned at the intense shock, but then something happened. The harder he sucked the better it felt. My insides tightened and my sex pulsed.

He released my swollen flesh with a pop. “Look at that.”

I glanced down, startled by how dark and turgid he’d made the tip. Then he pinched it.

“Ah!”

“So fucking sexy.” He grinned and latched on to the other one, sucking equally as hard.
