I tried to ignore the way he was stroking my waist or that sexy arrogant smile that lingered on his face.

"I do have reasons… Can you not be so fucking stubborn?" He said, frowning when he realised I was not going to back down.

"I can and I will." I said, my eyes flashing.

I knew he was hiding something from me.

"If I don’t want to take you I sure as fuck won't." He shot back.

"I’d like to see you try to stop me." I glared at him, mustering up my most icy look I could.

"What are you going to do? Try to act tough? Give me fucking baby shoves? You sure aren't that fucking strong now, are you?" He mocked.

Ok, although I loved the fact he sounded like his normal, annoying sexy self again. It was annoying.

"You want hard, I’ll show you hard." I said, glaring at him, as I punched his shoulder harder. He was pushed back a little but still unphased.

"Is that all you got, sweetheart?" He taunted.

Oh, he sure asked for it!

"Urgh you are so annoying!" I said and this time I smacked him again, using all my force. It knocked him back onto his pillow, making me gasp. My heart skipped a beat as he pulled me along with him. I was now on top of him, my eyes widening in surprise.

"Never said I fucking wasn’t." He remarked. His hands that were on my waist dipped lower ever so slightly as he gripped my hips.

I glared at him in frustration, but despite that, I couldn't resist the way I felt, the way my core ached, the storm within me or this sexual tension that was growing between us. Our eyes met and I was very aware of his abs pressing against my core through the thin fabrics of my shorts and panties. My chest rose and fell, I was drowning in him and I didn’t want to ever surface… I…

"You need to be careful, Amore Mio… Because your arousal is driving me fucking crazy. I won’t be able to control myself." He growled, his eyes flashing red.

My heart thudded in my chest, but I wanted this… I leant closer, running my hands over his shoulders.

"Maybe I don’t want you to control yourself." I whispered seductively, my core throbbing.

I didn’t miss the flash of surprise on his face as I bent down, my gaze dipping to his lips, but before I could kiss him. He turned his head away, making a sharp sting of pain rush through me.

"Wait… I need to tell you something first." He said quietly.

91. A Revelation Or Two

ALEJANDRO

Her heart thudded as she fought back her tears at my refusal. I knew she wanted to run from me but I refused to let her go. I sat up and looked down at her. Although she was in my lap, she was still so much smaller than me. She bit her lip, looking away.

I placed a kiss on her forehead, inhaling her tempting scent. She was my fucking home, the place I wanted to be… but I needed to tell her this now.

"I don’t know if there's…" I trailed off.

Fuck. How do I tell her that she’s pregnant…? Since I woke up, I knew I had to fucking tell her, but how?

"Alejandro… What is it?" She asked softly.

"What do you think of pups?" I asked bluntly.

She blinked, looking confused.

"Pups? They’re cute…"

"Want to be a mama?"
