When Lily pushed the impressive diamond ring on my finger, Mary couldn’t stay quiet for a second longer. “I’m retiring! Lily is officially my first grandbaby!”

Lily skipped over to Mary, who’d become her best friend almost instantly. “Not a baby, though.”

I hung onto the guys and cried as I stared at my ring. “I’m so in love with y’all.”

Noah’s hands slipped too low for where we were standing in front of a room full of our coworkers. “You’ve got thirty minutes. That’s what we agreed to give Ava after a long round of negotiations. Thirty minutes to scream and celebrate with Ava and everyone else and then we’re stealing you away. We’ve got a room upstairs for the night. Lily’s staying with Mom for the rest of the weekend. Ginger and Jasper are staying with Ava and Milo. And Jack wanted me to say that he’s staying with his new boyfriend, Rick.”

My heart was so full it felt like it would burst out of my chest. I kissed them each again and glanced back at the crowd. I saw the support our teams had for us as they celebrated for us. I also saw Ava coming closer. Looking back at the guys, I made a show of nodding towards the exit. “Thirty minutes feels like a long time right now. If you get me out of here now, I’ll let you do that thing you-”

“Don’t even think about it, Sophia!” Ava hugged me from behind and then Milo and Jack were right there, too. Ava laughed at my expression. “You can go off and be perverts in half an hour. I worked hard for these thirty minutes and I’m taking them.”

“Twenty-nine.” Noah looked at his watch and pulled me into his chest. “Twenty-eight and a half.”

One Year Later

“Be still. I swear to fucking everything that you are the biggest baby.” I lifted my tattoo gun from Noah’s chest and shook my head at him. “Soph sits like an angel for me.”

“You eat Soph out the entire time you’re tattooing her, asshole.” Noah winced when I lowered the gun again.

“Not the entire time…” Sophia pressed into me when I lifted the gun. “Speaking of… Is it my turn now?”

My dick hardened in my jeans immediately. I dropped the gun on my tray and pulled her down on my lap. “Eager?”

She wrapped her legs around me and nodded. “Always.”

Ethan walked in from the front of my studio and pulled Sophia off of me. “Nope. We agreed that you’d wait for another tattoo until after Ethan Junior is born.”

“We are not naming him Ethan Junior.” I growled and turned back to Noah’s chest. “And I wasn’t going to tattoo her. But just because I can’t tattoo her right now doesn’t mean I can’t spend an hour or two making her come on my face.”

Sophia groaned and pressed her hips into Ethan. “I’m miserable. I did not have these kinds of hormones when I was pregnant with Lily. I need to be fucked by one of my husbands.”

Ethan had her bent over Noah in the chair in no time. We’d all become professionals at taking Sophia in imaginative and fast ways. Living with an almost nine-year-old kept us on our toes. Before Ethan could get his pants unbuttoned, the bell over the front door rang. He swore and rubbed Sophia’s back instead, something that she liked almost as much as getting fucked.

“Thank you, Ethan.” She moaned. “But this child is not going to be named anything Junior.”

Noah scoffed. “I personally think NJ would be a cool name.”

“It’s not better than AJ.” I tattooed the final line of his second ever tattoo and made sure to clean it well before covering it.

“No juniors.” Sophia looked up at the sound of approaching footsteps and sighed as she stood up. “Whichever one of you said getting pregnant would be fun was a liar.”

“Baby, that was you.” Noah pulled his shirt back on. “Do I hear the crunching of a Lily nearby?”

Lily giggled from just outside the door and peeked in with a bag of chips in her hands. “Grandma Mary said not to sneak in on y’all, but I wanted to know if you were talking about my Christmas presents.”

Sophia walked out of the room with her hands on her back and her round belly leading the way. “We’ve already told you, Lily. If you sneak and find out what we got you, you won’t get itChristmas day. Your dad agreed, too. I don’t know where you got this sneaky streak, little lady.”

I waited until she was out of the room to laugh. “Says the woman who could spend every day all day researching people and companies because it makes her feel like a spy.”

“I heard that!”

Ethan frowned down at his pants. “I was so close to heaven.”
