“Is it bad?” She looks worried, her eyes growing wide.

I drag my hands over my face and shake my head. “No. It’s not. I’ve never felt anything like it.”

“In a good way?” She’s chewing on her bottom lip.

“Yeah, in a good way.” I turn so I’m facing her. “You’re so hot and wet.”

My dick is hard again just thinking about it. Her face reddens slightly.

“You must have been pretty mad at me to stop,” she says, and one of the corners of her mouth turns up slightly.

“You have no idea.” I shake my head again, and then I groan. “I can’t believe I didn’t piece it together sooner.”

Her face grows a shade darker red. “Well,Ididn’t piece it together for a while either.”

“Really?” She’s still watching the fire, holding her hands out in front of the flames. She flicks her eyes over to me. “Declan figured it out.”

“What? How?”

She covers her face with her hands. “I started crying when I held Ansley for the first time, and I’d thrown up every time I’d seen him for weeks.”

“Ah.”

“He and Will made me take one of Liv’s pregnancy leftover tests. They wanted me to call you right away, but...”

“But what?”

“I just wasn’t ready. I’m sorry. It was a lot for me to process.” She pauses for a second and then says softly. “And I was still furious with you.”

That feels like a punch to the gut, but it’s what I deserve. She doesn't wait for me to respond, continuing, “I didn’t know how you’d react either.”

I just nod slowly. It could have gone better, but here we are.

“Have you been to the doctor yet?” I ask.

She shakes her head. “I have an appointment on Wednesday. I'm nervous.”

“Can I go with you?”

Surprise flashes across her face. “Of course.”

“I’d like that.”

She turns to the side and lifts her shirt. I stop breathing for a minute.

“I’m showing a little.”

I laugh. “No you aren’t.”

“Yes. Look at this, it’s a little bump.” She runs her hands over her stomach, and my heart nearly burst out of my chest. “All of my pants are too tight.”

“It looks like you had a big dinner.”

A big smile spreads across her face. “It’s only the beginning.”

I lower myself to my knees and press my lips to her stomach. “I can’t wait.”

She’s smiling down at me, and then I slide my hands between her thighs and start to rub her. She groans and runs her hands through my hair.
