Jackson leaned in to study me and then his eyes widened. He rubbed his jaw and let a slow smile stretch his mouth. “Oh, yeah?”
I blushed and looked away. “I’m worried it’s not something you wanted right now.”
Luke ran his hands up my thighs and spread them so he could step between. When he looked down and saw the pregnancy test, he stilled, though. “Maggie?”
I drew in another deep breath. And then another. “It’s too soon. Anderson isn’t even a year old yet. My pregnancy with him was rough at times. It’s going to be a lot, having two babies so close together. I didn’t think it could happen so-”
Luke plucked Anderson from my arms and pressed his lips to mine. “Hold that thought.”
I gaped at him as he hurried from his office. Looking at Jackson and Ryan, I shrugged. “Is he expecting us to pretend like I didn’t just tell you both I’m pregnant?”
Jackson pulled me into his arms and laughed. “You’re worried about nothing, Bubbles. This is good news. Plus, we kind of suspected.”
“Yeah. You begged for us the other night like you did when you were pregnant with Andy.” Ryan groaned. “I really hope Luke was taking Andy to your mom and Gregor.”
“I did.” Luke came back in, breathing hard. He took his place between my thighs again and unclipped my hair. Running his fingers through it, he held my gaze and gently eased me back until I was lying across the desk. “I love you and everything you are, baby. I love that you’re going to grow our second child in your amazing body. I love all of the specialness of it. But…”
I frowned. “What?”
His grin was dark. “Selfishly, I love the way you turn into a needy little thing when you’re pregnant. I love the way you takeus when you’re pregnant, love the way your body grows for us. Here.”
I gasped as he cupped my breasts.
“And here.” She flipped up my shirt and lowered his mouth to my stomach. “I love the way you come when you’re pregnant, like everything is right in the world for a while.”
“Everythingisright in my world.” I gripped his hair and tugged his mouth up to mine. “This is really okay?”
Jackson pushed Luke out of the way and gripped my leggings. Pulling them down, he barely had them off before he had two fingers in me. “You’re our wife. Our very wet wife who is going to give us more babies. How could it not be okay?”
I moaned, the wild need already blossoming out from my core. “It’s not too soon?”
Ryan pinched my nipples, forcing a loud moan from me. “Never. Now spread your legs and tip your head back, baby. Let us give you what you need.”

Six Months Later
“Get in here, woman.” Ryan stood in the shallow end of the pool, his hands on his hips. “Faster!”
I laughed happily and stripped out of my coverup. My baby belly had grown even faster than it had with Anderson. The two piece swim suit I wore was bright pink and did nothing to hide any part of my body, so unlike the suits I’d worn to their family pool when I’d been with Brad. “I’m coming as fast as I can!”
Jackson pressed into me from behind and growled. “I’ve seen you come faster.”
I blushed and playfully slapped his hands away. “Stop it. Your dad is right there.”
He ran his mouth up my neck. “Get in the water, Bubbles. It’s hot out here.”
I pretended I was going to dive in and laughed when four grown men immediately started shouting at me to not even think about it. Rolling my eyes, I waved my hands at them to relax. Smiling at their dad, I wagged my finger at him. “I’m starting to think you like me.”
He blushed and looked away. “I just don’t want you to shake my granddaughter up.”
Luke scooped me up and walked me to the steps into the pool. Carrying me in, he didn’t let me go until he could pass me to Ryan. “You’re going to give me a heart attack.”
“You?” Their dad muttered something under his breath and shook his head. “I’d like to live long enough to meet the girl, you know?”
I luxuriated in the pool until the four of them, my new babysitters, grew worried about how much sun I was getting. I’d learned quick and fast how overprotective my husbands were during my pregnancy with Anderson. It was surprising to see their dad react the same way. He’d only come around to the idea of me after Anderson was born and had apologized for his behavior. Then he really started warming up after finding out I was pregnant again.
I loved that he’d finally gotten nicer. It’d taken a while for me to get over the way he’d treated me before but I wasn’t great at holding grudges. Plus, my guys had done that for me. They’d only agreed to visit their family home after months of being asked to.
