I put the truck in park. “But you’re not following in their footsteps. You’ll be twenty-three when this baby is born. Three years difference may not seem like a big deal, but it is. You finished your undergraduate degree. Your mom didn’t. You’re going to finish your graduate degree too. Point being, you’ll have your education, you have a job, and you have an incredibly successful, incredibly good-looking guy helping you establish yourself in whatever career you decide you want.” I give her leg another squeeze. “Your experience is going to be much, much different than your parents’. And isn’t that what they wanted for you all along?”

Maren angles her head, her smile soft. “You’re good.”

“I’m right. Whatever happens with your parents, I’ll be right beside you the whole time. I can’t promise to make them come around. But I’ll try, Tiny. Not many people can resist me when I turn on the charm.”

She throws back her head and laughs. My dick surges inside my trousers. We drove Kathryn Dear over. I’ll find a private place to stop on the way home. Lay this girl down and show her just how good I can be.

“I wouldn’t call you charming. But you are persuasive,” she says.

I grab her hand and put it on my growing erection. “Let me persuade you on the ride back.”

Her gaze darkens with lust. She runs her tongue along her bottom lip as she cups me through my trousers. “I don’t hate that idea.”

“We’ll be okay, Maren.” I bring her hand to my mouth. Turn it over and press a kiss to the tender skin of her wrist. “I promise.”

I walk into the house an hour later with the taste of Maren’s pussy on my lips and a bubble of excitement in my chest.

Katie is going to flip when she hears she’s going to be a big sister.

Many of her friends at pre-school have siblings. When she sees a baby at the park, she loves going to say hello. She loves playing with toddlers, chatting with them in this hilariously high voice as she pats their heads or helps them walk.

She’s also going to love the fact that Maren is going to be with us for much, much longer than I originally planned.

I stop in my bedroom to brush my teeth. Maren runs up to the crofter to change her shirt because I got cum all over her. I swear to Christ this girl turns me into an animal.

It’s the most fun I’ve had since I was a teenager.

I meet Maren in the kitchen. Jen and Katie are on the porch playing with slime in the warm autumn sunshine, so we have a minute to catch our breath.

That’s when it hits me: somewhere in my subconscious, I’ve been waiting for this moment. The one where I tell my baby girl she’s going to be part of a whole new family.

She and I were a complete unit before Maren came into our lives. I definitely felt the lack of a partner, but we made it work. I made sure Katie thrived. But I was alone. Lonely. Maybe I’m projecting, but I worried all the time Katie felt that way too.

Now that Maren is here, we’re not on our own anymore. And the baby will make four. The more the merrier.

Katie will finally know a mother’s love. I know I’m getting ahead of myself here. Maren and I haven’t talked about the whole step-parent thing. But I know without a doubt she’d be up for it if I asked.

She’s got that much heart, and she’s that brave to share it.

Makes me want to be brave too.

I grab Maren’s hand. She looks at it, then looks back up at me. “I thought we weren’t going to tell Katie about us.”

“If she notices me holding your hand, then we’ll tell her. But I think”—I clear my throat—“I need your support. I need to hold your hand, Maren.”

“Aw.” Maren searches my eyes. “You nervous?”

I shake my head. “Not at all. I’m . . .” So happy I could die. “I just like knowing you’re there. I’m excited.”

She smiles. “Me too.”

We step outside. Jen’s gaze immediately catches on Maren’s hand in mine. She smiles. “Hey.”

“Hey yourself.”

“Y’all look . . . happy.” Jen’s eyes meet mine. “Like. Really happy.”

“Did you get shots at the doctor?” Katie asks.

“No shots, thank goodness.” Maren taps our joined hands against her thigh. Glances up at me. “So, Katie, your daddy and I have some news we’d like to share with you.”

“I like the sound of this,” Jen says.

Not looking up from her purple slime, Katie replies, “Okay.”

“Squish, you’re going to be a big sister,” I say.

Katie still doesn’t look up from her slime. “Big sister?”

“Yeah. You’re going to have a new baby brother or sister soon.”

That gets her attention. She looks at me, eyes going wide as she gasps. “A real baby?”
