“That was what I have been warning this whole fucking hospital about for days. She was trying to get pictures of the twins to sell for a fortune. Which she would have gotten if I hadn’t stopped her. Keep the boys away from the viewing window. Do not let anyone in here, at all. If your administrator has a problem with me or my demands tell her to take it up with my lawyer. Because if one picture leaks out about those babies and their mother I will sue this entire hospital.”

Tracy nodded. “I completely understand, Mrs. Armstrong. I’ll let the administrator know and speak to the staff down here personally.”

“You make her call me!” I commanded and turned on my heel, storming out of the hospital before I ripped someone’s head off.

Chapter 17

Harper

I had to untangle myself from Shane before I could get out of bed. He groaned and held on tighter as I tried to crawl toward the edge of the bed. “Not yet,” he mumbled, still half asleep.

I kissed his chest then pushed him away. “I have things I need to do. Like pee.”

“Come back to bed when you’re done,” he grumbled, turning over onto his stomach and hugging my pillow. “We have things to do, too.”

Laughing, I headed into the bathroom and didn’t even bother to close the door. As soon as I sat down I nearly groaned. “Ouch,” I muttered, the pressure and slight burning telling me I had a UTI.

“You okay?” Shane called, having heard me.

“Nothing a trip to the doctor can’t remedy,” I called back. “I have a urinary tract infection. Nothing serious.”

I started to get up but he appeared in the doorway, frowning. “Does it hurt?”

I shrugged, turning to flush and then moving toward the sink to wash my hands. “It’s not comfortable. I’ll be fine, Shane.” I dried my hands and then stepped into his waiting arms. They tightened around me and he pressed a kiss to my forehead. “I’ll call my doctor and get an appointment for later today, okay?”

“While you’re there, talk to her about stopping the pill…”

I raised my head, meeting his gaze. “You want to start trying for a baby?” My heart was racing a hundred miles a minute all of a sudden and I stepped back, needing a better view of his face.

We had only talked about it a few times, in recent months, and we had both decided it was something we needed to think more on. But with Layla’s twins already here, Lana due in two months, and now Emmie expecting baby number two I was getting a little excited for us to have our own little rocker running around this huge house.

Shane gave me a sheepish grin. “I think Emmie has slipped something in the water because ever since she told us she was pregnant I’ve been thinking about it more and more. What do you think, beautiful? Are we ready to start our family?”

I threw my arms around his neck. “Yes. Yes, I think now is perfect.” I pulled back, a stupid, happy grin so big it hurt my face. “Our baby will have so many cousins to play with and go to school with.”

“I was thinking more along the lines of how sexy you’re going to look with my baby growing inside of you. Not the cousins and school thing.” He brushed his lips over my lips, making my breath catch as I felt his erection pulse against my bare thighs. “It makes me hard just thinking about it, beautiful.”

“Mm. I can see that.” I grinned as I reached between us to let my fingers skim up and down the long, hard length of him. “So you want to see me fat and miserable.”

“Pregnant and glowing,” he corrected, backing me toward the sink until my rear hit the coolness of the ceramic. “Let’s start practicing now, baby. It might take me a few tries to get the technique down to put a baby in that sexy little body.”

My grin disappeared as a moan of pure pleasure escaped me when he lifted me effortlessly and placed me on the edge of the sink. His fingers spreading my pussy open  wide as he stepped between my legs. The tip was already damp with his precum. I was soaking wet, my desire already running down my thighs even before he touched me.

When he felt my heat he growled with pleasure and put the tip inside of me. “Fuck. That feels so damn good.”

I could only whimper in agreement. Shane slipped an inch deeper, and my arms wrapped around his shoulders needing to hold onto something to ground me to the earth.

“You’re dripping wet for me,” he breathed at my ear as his thumb brushed over my clit. “Shit, that makes my balls tighten. Knowing how much you want me, that I can make you this hot so easily, it makes me so damn hard. All I want to do is pound into that sweet little pussy until I don’t know where I end and you begin.”

Another inch deeper and he wasn’t even close to being halfway. My sex clamped around those two inches, trying to suck him deeper. His hand skimmed upward, over my tattoo to my belly button. Shane flattened his hand against me. “She’s going to grow here, she’s going to be safe and happy right here as she grows. And you’re going to be so goddamned hot as your stomach grows, because I will know you are taking care of our child.”

He thrust into me until he was balls deep with one powerful stroke, making me clutch at him as my nails dug into his flesh. His words melted my heart even as his body melted everything else. My legs wrapped around his waist, keeping him prisoner inside of me as we raced toward completion.

Later, after we had showered together and finally gotten ready for the day, I hugged him tight. “I love you.”

“I love you, too, beautiful.”

“Our little family is going to be what neither of us had as kids. They will be so spoiled rotten and I won’t even care.” I was never going to put our kids down, make them feel unworthy.

Shane chuckled, brushing my long hair back from my face. “Of course they will. They’ll have the best life imaginable, because they will have you as their mom.”

Tears burned my eyes and I had to kiss him again or start crying. How was it possible to love someone as much as I loved him without combusting?

I dropped by the office before I went to my doctor’s appointment that afternoon. Since we had delayed our honeymoon there was no reason why I couldn’t check in with Rex and see if they were having any problems. I liked my boss, had become decent friends with him even though he liked to use my relationship with Shane and his family a little too often. Shane got along with Rex, which made my life a little easier.

They seemed set without me at the office, so I bailed out after checking the stack of pictures on my desk.
