Page 125 of Georgia-Blue & Hudson

Georgia and I will forever jibe each other to the hilt, but nowadays it’s foreplay for us and she just loves a good spanking when the time calls.

We announced our engagement the day after I proposed to her in bed. We spent a dirty weekend at Slate Mountain and have been going to the cabin ever since. Both of us love to explore the great outdoors and to get away from it all.

It brings me comfort having Georgia with me and leaving the madness of work for a few days. It’s been good for us both.

My nightmares are a thing of the past since GB and I got together, it’s like she chases the demons away.

Bucko is doing better than ever and living his best life. He’s totally cool with me now and I think we’re both at peace with our pasts and where we need to be.

Riding our horses is almost a daily thing for us, and we’re looking to expand our brood with another rescue horse and a rescue donkey of our own, courtesy of Brooklyn. Takoda even checks in from time to time to see how Bucko is doing.

Georgia moved in with me about a month after Callan and Celeste’s wedding. My dad was never happier to see me and Georgia together, and treats her like his own flesh and blood. It brings warmth to my heart to see how happy he is about it, and how much she loves my dad in return. I know my mom is smiling down on us, and happy we finally got together.

Gray and I are more than cool now. He knows I’ll always treat her right, and of course Gayle has adored the news since day one, and Robert gave us his blessing straight off the bat. They finally went on their European vacation they’ve been putting off for a while, but the minute Gayle gets back, I know that her and Georgia will be finalizing the wedding plans full throttle. It’s just a few months away and we’ll sayI doin front of all our friends and family.

The new Bassett babies have well and truly made their entrance to the family. Celeste gave birth to a daughter, Aurora Clementine, and Hartley gave birth to a son, Jackson Robert. Gray and Hartley are a couple of months in and to say I’ve never seen my best friend so damned elated is putting it lightly. It could melt the coldest of hearts seeing the big grin on Gray’s face every day the second he became a dad.

Hart has been on maternity leave but plans to go back to her practice part-time while Gray stays home to look after their son. It’s something I know he’s always wanted to do and will revel in.

Celeste and Callan have taken to parenting like ducks to water, and Sunny never leaves Aurora’s side. They have a rotor system so that one of them gets to be home with the baby while the other can work.

I’m also hearing rumors that the time may be coming for Gabriel and Skye to get hitched and start trying.

Beau and Autumn seem happy as they are. Kids don’t seem on the cards for them, though they were talking about adopting a furry friend for Bruiser.

On the baby front, I’ve spent the past year trying to convince Georgia that I need to knock her up. Words can’t express how I’d feel with Georgia pregnant with my kid.

And those thoughts have been coming thicker and faster these past few months. Maybe because I’m getting that much closer to forty now, who knows. But I’m ready for it with her. I’m ready for whatever life throws at us, and with her by my side, I know that things can only get better. I can’t imagine a world without her in it. She’s the butter to my bread and the air to my breath.

??

Three months after that…

“Did I see you getting all clucky over holding little Jackson today?” Georgia quizzes as she sits on the top of the fence between Bucko’s area and the horses.

She’s wearing my favorite sexy overalls again and I swear I’ll never get sick of looking at her and having her close to me on the farm. I even built her a porch swing after she told me she’d always wanted one. We both love sitting out there at dusk withMoses snuggled between us. He loves having Georgia around as much as I do.

“Clucky?” I chortle. “Isn’t that the equivalent of a female hen?”

“You looked really comfortable and in your element,” she says with a waggle to her eyebrows.

“I’m just happy for Gray becoming a dad like he’s always wanted.”

“What about you?”

I raise an eyebrow. “What about me?”

“Are you still serious about becoming a dad?”

My intense eye gaze gives her a generous dose of what I’m thinking. There’s no masking how I feel about that scenario.

She laughs quietly and lifts her head back to look up to the clouds. “I’m taking that as a yes.”

“It’s just something I always thought would eventually happen,” I say honestly. “But there’s no pressure; we have time.”

She glances down at me and rolls her eyes. “Now you’re saying that? After harping on about knocking me up every five minutes.”

“Well, we’ve both been kinda distracted with the wedding plans, so it hasn’t been at the forefront of my mind.”
