Luke wanted me.

Passion like that couldn’t be faked. But then I remembered what he did for work and I wasn’t so sure. I pushed away, panting, bracing my palm on his shoulder.

“Tell me it’s real.”

“Of course it’s real.” His pupils were blown wide, his whole body vibrating. “I’ve wanted you more than I should have for what feels like a lifetime.”

I curled my fingers into the collar of his shirt and ground out, “Prove. It. I don’t ever want to question it again.”

Kissing Ava was a dream. It was surreal as hell and everything I’d ever craved. Sweet, nutty caramel bathed my tongue and I drank in as much of her as I could get. If she thought I was here out of obligation, I was going to make damn sure she knew exactly how much I wanted her.

Leaving had been the best thing for both of us, but I couldn’t help regretting some of the outcome of that decision. Having herin my arms now felt like I was turning back the clock, giving both of us the chance I had taken away. It wasn’t any less complicated now but I didn’t have the strength to turn away this time.

If it was a choice between now or never, I was going to choose now. I could, and would, give her all of me if that was what she wanted. Giving her the world was a competition I wouldn’t win next to Bryce, but I could give her me, and maybe that would be enough?

I laced my fingers into her hair and tugged her head to the side. She shivered and squirmed as I worked my way up and down her throat, alternating nips, kisses, and licks so I could learn what made her tick. I had never been with someone who was pregnant before, but I had enough experience to navigate it without too much difficulty.

Pulling away, I whipped my shirt over my head and Ava eagerly did the same with hers, her hazel eyes glittering.

“Fuck me. You are so fucking beautiful. How am I supposed to cope?”

Ava’s grin was shy with a mischievous edge. “Guess you’ll have to perish. But not before you rock my world, because I’ve been dreaming about this for way too long not to get to experience it now.”

Pride flowed through me. “You really think I’m going to perish before I get to experience a lifetime of you?”

Her cheeks flushed pink. “I still can’t quite believe this is finally happening. It doesn’t feel real.”

“It will feel much more real once you have a couple of orgasms under your belt,” I promised.

“Get started, then.”

I chuckled as I finished stripping her down, unable to avoid noticing the sharpening of her scent.

“What’s wrong?”

“Just self-conscious. You never got to see me before I looked like this,” she said, patting her belly. “I don’t want to be a disappointment.”

“You couldneverdisappoint me. You’re the most beautiful omega on the planet to me.”

“You’re sure?”

“Aves, I’m literally on my knees in front of you. How much clearer can I be?”

“I guess that’s a good point.”

“The best point. Now, lie back in your mountain of pillows so I can eat this perfect cunt until we both hit euphoria.”

Ava leaned into the pillows with a shaky breath, shifting to spread her legs and bare her dripping pussy to me. The first taste of her was heaven. I buried my face against her, my tongue sweeping over each delicate fold and sucking on her clit until she mewled.

She couldn’t quite reach my hair, but she could reach my arms draped over each thigh to keep her spread open. Her nails carved half moons into my skin as she rocked her hips.

“Luke,” she breathed.

“Yes, kitten?”

She squeaked. “Kitten?”

“What else should I call you when you have your little claws digging into me?”
