That damn panty-dropping smile of his makes me want to go back home for the sex I dismissed.
He holds his hand out for me to walk down the hall, stopping me in front of the washer and dryer.
“You left something in there,” he says, pointing to the dryer.
I open the door to see nothing inside, but when I turn back to face Hendrix, he’s down on bended knee. Oh god.
“What do you think you’re doing?” I ask him, heart beating wildly in my chest.
“I’m showing you just how much you add to my life. Never take for granted the calm in the storm you are for me. You keep me grounded and help me make sure my temper is under control. I know that you feel like you don’t add enough to my life, but there’s so much more living for us to do. I’ve been thinking about you stuck all over this apartment and then I wondered what it would be like if you were stuck with me…forever.”
Hendrix pulls a ring out of his pocket. It matches my necklace, but the diamond in the center is huge. He slips it onto my finger and says, “Being blessed with a family like mine saved me once, but being blessed with a woman like you saved me twice. I don’t want to think about my life without you in it, and to make sure you know how much I love you, Havana Bradley, will you marry me?”
“Yes,” I tell him. “I will. I love you so much, Hendrix.”
“I love you too, Havana. Now you know that we’re stuck together in this, relax and take your time figuring out what you want to do. Until that happens, you can be my wife and hold the key to this locksmith’s heart.”
EPILOGUE
HENDRIX
One Year Later
“For the last time, Daddy, he is fine,” Havana says, dragging me to the table where an array of pamphlets sit on display for us to choose a destination.
“I just like making sure my boy’s sleeping good. He’s been colicky, ya know,” I tell her as if she doesn’t.
I don’t know which one of us is obsessed more with our son. Hawk Haven sleeps soundly in a room where we let the cool night air blow, which seems to work best for him.
After making sure the tablet on the table is open to the baby cam app, I shift my attention to the brochures on the table. Havana sits across from me and taps on a few mountain getaways in Pennsylvania.
“So, River and Hayden both agree that the mountains are a good spot for everyone. We can find one of those massive cabins that sleeps at least a dozen,” she laughs.
“I just want to be sure that our room is soundproof,” I tell her, moving closer to her, nuzzling against her neck and kissing the bottom of her earlobe.
“Daddy, focus.”
“I am focused.”
She turns to kiss me as if that’s going to be enough. “Your focus is going to have me pregnant again in record time. Let’s pick a place. They gave us the final vote.”
“They only gave it to us because if it sucks, all the blame falls on me.”
She shakes her head. “Don’t be like that, babe. This is the first time that all the Haven men are happily married and in love. It would be nice for you guys to actually take some time off work and let the kids get together.”
“We can put all four of the cousins in a playpen while the adults have a great time.”
“Outside of Conklin?” she asks.
I sigh and sit down. “Fine. Pick a place, baby girl. I’m happy as long as you’re happy.”
She turns to give me a deep kiss, running her hands through my hair and grazing my scalp, which gets me hard in seconds. Her tongue swirls around mine, moving softly in and out of my mouth. I moan and grab her ass to make her sit on my lap.
Havana straddles me, and it doesn’t take much for me to move her loose shorts aside. I slip my cock out and inside of her with ease, pushing up into her.
She moans between thrusts. “This is not how to pick a family vacation.”
I move her to the top of the table where the brochures will have to wait until we’re finished.
She’s panting as I bury myself inside of her. “Daddy, you’re going to ruin the brochures.”
I stop for a moment to look her in the eyes. “Baby girl, fuck these brochures.”
Finding a minute to please my wife is hard to do with a newborn. With Hawk finally sleeping peacefully and life giving us a moment to enjoy each other, I take it. I take her over and over again for as much as my body will allow.
I can’t believe how lucky I am to have a woman like Havana.
