“Not a new line,” I said, my head spinning from his touch. A year later and I still couldn’t get enough of this man.
“So, just for me then?” His lips brushed over mine, then down the line of my jaw and to my neck.
I leaned back slightly, my hands fisting his shirt as he teased me. “Yes and no,” I said, and he leaned back enough to meet my eyes.
“Duchess?”
Emotions built and built in my throat, but I managed to shrug and say, “I just wanted to wear this,” I said. “Because I won’t be able to fit into it soon.”
Cormac went absolutely still, his eyes widening as his head titled. “Bristol,” he said, but it sounded like a question.
I shifted, guiding his hands to my still-flat belly.
“Bristol?” he asked, his tone rising.
“How opposed are you to me calling you Daddy?”
His lips parted, a gasp rasping from them. “I’m going to be Daddy?”
I nodded, tears in my eyes.
“Duchess!” He slanted his mouth over mine, consuming me in a kiss that branded itself all the way down to my soul. He tore his lips away, instantly dropping to his knees to bring his face eye-level with my tummy. “Hi, baby,” he said, and my heart melted.
I tangled my fingers in his hair. “Are you happy?”
He glanced up at me, planting a kiss on my tummy before standing again. “Are you kidding?” He slid his arms around me. “I’ve never been happier. Are you happy?”
I nodded, unable to speak around the love in my throat.
Cormac smirked, sweeping an arm behind my knees and cradling me to his chest.
“What are you doing?” I giggled as he walked us toward our bedroom.
“Thanking you,” he said, gently laying me on the bed.
“For what?” I asked, breathless.
“For coming into my life. For completing it in a way I didn’t know I needed. For being…my everything.”
I pressed my lips together, smiling up at him. “I love you, Cormac,” I said.
He trailed a finger over my jaw, down my neck, until he settled his hand over my heart. “I love you,” he said. “Always.” He sealed his words with a kiss, and proceeded to worship me for the first hour in our new happily ever after.
