Chapter 36 #2
All week Haddy’s been decorating the baby’s room. The walls are painted a warm peach color, and the pine crib is decorated in a mixture of cream and peach princess and hockey-themed motifs. Even the mobile hanging over it is hockey players and princesses.
“I had that custom made,” Haddy explains.
Waiting for Lucy in the center of the mattress is a green axolotl Haddy’s aunt Mimi crocheted by hand. Haddy showed me a picture of Axel, the one she had as a baby.
“She’s going to love it.” Leaning down, I kiss the side of her neck.
“I hadn’t accounted for pregnancy when I got a tattoo on my hip.” Her nose wrinkles. “Axel is very large right now.”
“I can really see the details at this size.” I catch her fist before it makes contact with my chest, laughing as I lead her down the hall to our bedroom. “I’m just saying, my mom’s a tattoo artist. It’s good work—much like you did with the house.”
“Nice save.”
Our bedroom shows off our two worlds as well. Framed pictures of our last months together are on the dresser and nightstands. My favorite is the one of me catching her that first day when she fell off the float.
She put it together with a mat that has the headline about me being a hockey player and a white knight in a large frame.
“Lucy’s going to love that one when she’s older,” Haddy laughs, resting her head on my arm.
“She’ll be our little princess.” I place my fingers under Haddy’s chin. “You’re my queen.”
Her eyes darken, and I lean down to pull her lips with mine. Our mouths open, and I slide my tongue in to curl with hers. She exhales a soft noise, and it registers straight to my cock.
Threading my fingers in her hair, I tilt her head to the side so I can kiss her deeper. She scratches, pulling at my shirt and I take a break to pull it over my head. Like always her eyes light, and she traces her finger down the lines of my chest.
“My knight,” she whispers, placing her lips against my skin.
The tip of her tongue circles my hardened nipple, sending energy to my dick, and she kisses lower, moving to her knees and sliding her hands up my thighs.
“You shouldn’t be on your knees,” my voice is hoarse, and my body aches for her.
“I want to be.” She blinks wide blue eyes as she takes my shaft in her fist, guiding my tip to her full lips.
One gentle suck, one circle of her tongue, and I bend forward, resting my palms on the side of the bed.
“Fuck, Haddy, that feels too good.” It’s a deep groan as she pulls me further into her warm mouth.
Her head bobs, and she moves her hand to meet her lips. Then she tilts her head, sucking the place right behind the tip and making me see stars. Another deep groan, and she opens her mouth, sliding the top of her tongue back and forth beneath my tip.
“Jesus, Haddy…” My fists tighten on the mattress. “Come up here before I come all over your face.”
Her eyebrows rise, and she exhales a throaty laugh. “What’s wrong with that?”
Shaking my head, I help her climb onto our king bed. “I don’t think it’s because I love you when I say you give the best head.”
“I told you I studied.”
“God, I love your scientific mind. Now lie back and spread ‘em.”
Her thighs fall open, and I kiss my way up the soft, inner skin, getting closer to her bare pussy as she squirms and moans on the bed. Then just before I get to the center, I stop and go to the other side.
“Gavin!” she pouts, making me chuckle as I do the same again.
Pausing on her inner thigh, I suck, flicking my tongue back and forth over the skin between my lips as she moans.
“If you make me go into labor, Dr. Barry is going to see that,” she gasps.
“I’m sure she’s seen worse.” I lift my head inspecting the hickey on her inner thigh, then I kiss the bottom of her pregnant belly. “Buckle up, baby.”
Covering her pussy with my mouth, I circle my tongue over her clit as her moans grow louder. I slide one finger into her core, then two… then three as I suck her clit.
“Oh, fuck, Gavin!” she shouts, and my rigid cock drips with precum.
“Yes, scream my name…” I give her center a slow lick. “We can make all the noise we want.”
Focusing my attention on her center, I keep going, pumping my fingers in and out as she twists and moans. Her hands slap the sheets and pull as her heels dig into the mattress beside me. Another loud moan, another low swear, and I feel her inner muscles start to spasm and grab my sliding fingers.
Just before she breaks, I give her a kiss and stand, lining my cock up with her entrance and driving straight home.
We both moan loudly. My mind bends at the feel of her tight cunt gripping my cock. I’m too far gone to be gentle. Thrusting hard and fast, I rest a knee on the side of the bed.
Haddy moans and wraps her legs around me, arching her back and crying out. My vision tunnels, waves of pleasure snake up my legs, centering in the place where we’re joined. I bend down to seal my lips to hers, and when our tongues collide, I feel her break.
Her body pulls me, shuddering, and I let go with a deep groan, pulsing and filling her, losing myself in the intense pleasure of our union. The mind-altering experience of flying through this place together, of fumbling down from ecstasy.
Gathering her body, I slide us higher to the center of the bed. Turning her in my arms, I hold her for a minute, spooning her against my chest as I kiss her shoulder, place my hands over her pregnant belly. Her full body has only become more attractive to me as time has passed.
“The nest is beautiful,” I say, kissing the side of her cheek. “Just like you.”
“I’m a whale,” she laughs softly, covering my hands with hers and threading her fingers in mine.
“You’re full of life.” I kiss the top of her ear.
“I’m definitely full.” Another snort. “Who knew the night you hung all those Halloween decorations we’d end up here?”
“I knew.” I press my nose to the side of her head and inhale fresh jasmine. “You were made for me.”
“You sound like your mom Kenny.” She traces her finger around the ring on my thumb. “I want one of these. Would she do it for me?”
“We don’t have to wait for her.” I lift her slim hand.
“But I want to. It’ll be more special that way, keeping it in the family.”
“Anything you want.” I kiss her again. “As long as we’re together.”
“That’s the legend.”
Only it’s more than a legend. It’s the sunlight filtering through the leaves on the trees. It’s the roots stretching deep into the soil, anchoring us to the earth and creating a foundation.
Haddy’s mine, and I am Haddy’s. It’s our branch, the start of something new. The start of our forever.
