“I'm not hurting you, am I?”

She smiled, her eyelids heavy. “No. It feels wonderful.”

Her back arched upward, pressing her breasts against my torso. I moved one hand over her curves, sucking one nipple and then the other into my mouth. My hand traced the shape of her body, over her hips and thighs, then up to caress her face.

She was finally mine, and I wanted to explore every bit of her body.

Felicity writhed underneath me, and I knew she was getting close. She dug her nails into my back and clenched her muscles around my cock.

I kissed her breathlessly, and she gasped into my mouth.

“Cooper, yes,” she murmured as she lost herself in orgasm.

Her muscles contracted around me, milking my cock. I couldn't hold back any longer. My body tightened and tensed before it surrendered its release deep inside her.

We were still for several moments. I rested my head on her chest, and she moved her fingers through my hair as we both caught our breath.

Finally, I rolled off her and lay on my back. I slid my arm under her shoulders and pulled her close.

“We're having a baby,” I said. I was still in awe.

She grinned at me. “Yes, we are.”

Slowly, though, her face fell as some new doubt entered her mind.

“Cooper, what about the trial? What if… what if the judge…”

I pressed a finger to her lips before she could finish that question.

“We're going to win, Felicity. We have to.”

But deep down, I was just as terrified of what might happen as she was.

FELICITY

After we cuddled in bed for a while, Cooper and I returned to the boutique.

Katie had managed the place on her own just fine. I knew she was curious about why Cooper proposed when I had already been wearing an engagement ring, but she was kind enough to not shower me with questions. I had a feeling we would become friends, though, and I could fill her in later.

I took the opportunity to show Cooper the changes around the store. He was excited to see the steady stream of customers, and he spent the better part of an hour going through my financial statements and bookkeeping.

“Congratulations,” he said as he pulled me against his chest. Katie had just left—I’d sent her home early and closed the store to celebrate the engagement. “You have a thriving business, Felicity. And it's all because of your hard work.”

I laughed. “That, and your business coaching. Plus, the check you wrote me didn't hurt.”

He buried his face in my neck, planting kisses along my shoulder and collarbone. “That was nothing. You did the real work.”

Heat flooded between my legs. “You better stop before you get me all worked up again. I told you these pregnancy hormones are out of control.”

“Good,” he murmured as he grabbed my rear. “I can't get enough of you.”

I pushed him away gently with my hand on his chest. “Save some for tonight,” I laughed. “You can show me exactly how much you've missed me.”

He growled in frustration, but he backed off. “Are you ready to go home? The girls will be waiting for us.”

I smiled. “I'm ready.”
