Mal blushes and sputters. “I… that is… well…”

Ellie sighs loudly, a fond expression taking over her face. “Both my boys were simply adorable when they were little.” She shakes her head sadly. “And now look at them. Where did I go wrong?”

I snort with laughter.

My mom suddenly pipes up. “Don’t worry, Kai. I’ve got plenty of pictures of River when he was a sweet little munchkin.” She winks at him. “I’m happy to share. After all, fair’s fair.”

Kai’s expression brightens, and I shrug with total unconcern. “I’m cool with that. After all, I was super stinkin’ cute as a kid. I have nothing to be ashamed of.” I arch an eyebrow. “Although, my hair was even wilder then. I just know you’re going to lose your mind over my baby curls.”

The dreamy look on Kai’s face is way too adorable.

I know him so freaking well.

Eventually, after we all finish our dessert, I stand up and get everyone’s attention. “Ahem! Thank you, everyone, for being here today and for indulging me in this little surprise party forKai. We’ve been through a lot lately, but I wanted to make sure we were able to celebrate his birthday in style. He deserves to be celebrated every day—because he’s freaking awesome—but especially today. So, raise your voices, and let’s all serenade the birthday boy now!”

My sweet hubby-boo sits there, fidgeting in his chair, his expression reflecting ten kinds of awkwardness, as everyone at the table loudly sings an enthusiastic chorus of “Happy Birthday” to him.

He only has to endure this particular torture once a year, so he can suck it up.

Half an hour later, the festivities are over and we’re back at home.

Fortunately, my former royal bodyguard Chewy moved out not too long after we dealt with Shilgar the Deadly, which has made it a lot easier to do things like seduce my man in any room I want again! For now, he’s off on a much-deserved intergalactic vacation after over a decade without any time off.

In the kitchen, I push Kai back against the island and drop to my knees. Looking up at him, I lick my lips. “I do believe the birthday boy deserves another present.” I waggle my eyebrows. “Screw blowing out candles, I want to blow you.”

His pupils dilate and his breath quickens before he nods enthusiastically.

Heh. I am the king of birthdays.

With deliberate slowness, I unzip Kai’s pants, then pull them down to his knees, keeping him restrained and at my mercy. Just the way I want him.

Mwahahahaha!

Whoa. I totally channeled some of my inner Lord Vardox just then.

Kai’s eager erection is already standing at attention and just waiting for my tender, loving care.

But I take my time.

I gently fondle his balls first and Kai groans, his hips involuntarily humping the air. In response, I reach behind him and give his right ass cheek a light smack. “Patience, baby.”

Letting go of his balls, I wrap my hand around the base of his shaft, holding it steady for me. My eager tongue licks a stripe up the impressive length of him, and the tip of it traces the underside of the sensitive head just the way he loves. Kai clutches some of my hair with a sexy gasp. Fighting back a grin, I circle the glans, then flick my tongue against his wet tip and savor the salty taste there.

“Fuck,” Kai moans, and his eyes flutter closed.

Damn but he’s gorgeous.

“Later,” I promise.

Eventually, I decide I’ve teased him enough. That’s when I lick my lips, open wide, and swallow him down like a motherfucking champ.

“Dark matter and dammit!” Kai roars.

It’s taken me some time to get used to deep throating my hubby-boo, but I’m rather proud of the progress I’ve made. I put my hard-earned skills to use and swallow convulsively around him once his length is as far down my throat as I can handle. My reward occurs when Kai clutches my hair almost to the point of hurting and his thighs tremble with the effort to remain still. Bringing him to the edge of his control like this is a heady rush I savor fully.

With loving care, I worship his cock with my mouth until he’s wild with need. That’s when he pulls me off him and into his arms. I wrap my legs around his waist while he ravishes my mouth with relentless hunger, leaving me breathless and trembling too.

“Bedroom?” I ask, my voice hoarse.
