“Dammit. There I was, concocting one last plan to hook Channing Tatum.”

“He’s got nothing on me, baby girl.” He meant it, too. And he was right. “I’m one of a kind, and so are you, and that’s why we make total sense together.”

“A.K.A., we’re both kind of fucked up, but when you put us together, all our broken edges kind of…mesh together.”

“Broken edges are that way because they’re looking for the piece that can fix them. We fix each other, even if we have to jiggle about a bit until we do.” He grabbed my hand and kissed my knuckles.

“I’m glad you think that way.” I curled my fingers around his cheek. “Because I want to meet your parents tomorrow. And tell them.”

He paused. “You mean that?”

“We’re stuck with each other

    He leaned over me again and sucked lightly on my pulse point. It was thrumming, pounding, pulsating beneath the gentle caress of his tongue. My body was alive and waiting, anticipating, ready.He wrapped his arms around me and lifted me to standing. “Time to get wet,” he whispered, pushing me toward the bathroom.I ache as he led me into the room and then the shower. My breath catch when he turned the water on full force and stepped out of his boxer briefs.His erection pinged free, standing upright and resting against his stomach. I swallowed at the sight of it. God—it was long and hard and I knew exactly how that fucking tastes.My tongue darted across my bottom lip, and I knew he caught it because he wrapped his hand around himself. He walked back into the shower, his fist stroking his cock and his eyes on me.“Come here.”I walked i

    He smiled at me and swept me into his arms. I tucked the quilt over us and snuggled into him, the warmth of his skin soothing to me as we entwined our legs and drape our arms around each other.“Where’s Angus?” he said against my forehead.“Out getting pussy. No pun intended,” I added when his body shook.“Good lad.” He tightened his hold on me, and I smiled.“You wouldn’t believe you had me against the shower wall not so long ago.”Ivan laughed softly. “It’s what I’m here for, baby girl. I’ll fuck you hard and love you gently. That’s all that matters.”Too true. I curled into him, savoring the feel of his skin against mine. His breath fluttering across the top of my head.“Love you, dirty Brit boy.”“Love you, sassy American bitch.”

    I smiled, even if it was kind of weak. “It’s great to meet you, too. I’m sorry about disappearing just then.”Ivan’s dad stood and embraced me the same way his wife just did. “Don’t apologize to the woman who had twins. I considered moving the bathroom into the bedroom several times during that pregnancy.”Now that I can believe. Already.“Anyway, congratulations!” He kissed my cheek. “What a wonderful surprise.” He clapper Ivan on the shoulder and pulled him in for a hug.“How are you feeling, love? We can reschedule if you’d like,” his mom asked, resting a hand on my arm.“No, no! You don’t have to do that. I feel fine—mostly.”“It started this morning,” Ivan explained, sliding a hand down my back soothingly. “We’re going to the

    “Of course. Sickness takes it out of you.” Kate nodded. “I hope we can see each other again before we leave at the weekend. Perhaps for lunch.”“I would love that.” I smiled. As long as she doesn’t mention weddings again.I said goodnight to Mish and Gerald and stood up. I grabbed my purse from the side of the sofa and froze when Ivan talked.“What are you doing?”“I’m going?”“Where exactly?”“To bed.”“At your apartment?”“Um, yes?”He shook his head and stood. Then he crossed the apartment in a few long strides and snatched my purse. Before I could ask him what he’s doing, he scooped me up, one hand around my back and another beneath my knees. I squeakee and grabbed him, the sudden motion upsetting my stomach a little.

    I poked my stomach lightly. “You’re already making my life hard. I know you’re only a few weeks into this growing thing, but go easy on me, yeah?”“Are you talking to your stomach?” Aaron was grinning when I looked up.“More specifically the person inside, but yes, I suppose.”“Ivan called me this morning. Congratulations, Brenda.” He hugged me and kissed my cheek.“Thanks. I’m still getting used to the idea.”“Talking to your stomach will probably help with that.” He smirked.“You might technically be my boss, but you’re also my best friend’s fiancé, and if you keep that up, I’ll have a few hormone induced words for you, sir.” I flounced over to the bar and separated the résumés .“I don’t doubt it,” h

    I reached out and took his hand in mine. A calming feeling washed over me as our fingers entwined and his thumb rubbed the back of my hand. The elevator doors closed in front of us, and I curled my body into his, just needing to be held by him.It came fleetingly—the urge to touch him, to have him touch me, to have that connection. It was always strong and irresistible, and as he slid his hands down to my ass and kissed my neck, I wqs reminded that we’re still very much governed by our addictions.He still craved my body, and in turn, I still craved his heart.Our love just had a way of pushing it to the side, smothering it a little. I think more of how I love him than how I’m addicted to him… And maybe that’s the key.Maybe that’s how we’ll make it work.Perhaps our love and our addictions are intertwining into an intricate knot

    “Of course he can. He’d be crazy to think you’re anything else.”“Do I detect sarcasm there?”“Probably.”He leaned over the sofa and kissed me. “Your sarcasm sucks.”“No, I suck,” I muttered, nipping his bottom lip.“Good thing, too. We have an hour or so in a plane tomorrow. Since you denied me the last time we flew together, you can put your sucking to good use, can’t you?”“A challenge?”“A demand.”“Far be it from me to deny you your demands.”I followed Ivan onto the plane with a swirling in my stomach. I licked my lips several times, as if I can shift my focus from it. It didn’t work. I got the feeling that the half slice of toast I had that morning before we left wasn’t sitting well and will soon be ma

    'No one ever tells you how raw your throat gets when they talk about morning sickness. Sure, they mention how horrible it is and whatever, but they never tell you the little bits.'My eyes moved from the beach to my stomach. It was still flat—aside from some light bloating that probably wasn’t even visible to anyone else. I wondered when that bloat would become bump—when it’ll be obvious to everyone else that there’s a tiny baby in there.I lifted my dress up over my hips and ran my finger across the skin above the waistband of my bikini briefs. It was smooth, hot, perfectly unmarred.'How long do I have until it changes? Until the beauty of what’s inside reflects in permanent markings that will only ever fade? How long do I have until I’m no longer me?'“It’s not every day I get to finish work and come home to my girlfriend s

    “What… What is this?” I swallowed, looking at Ivan. He was grinning, but it was nervous. And I didn’t blame him. I wanted to know why he was standing next to an officiant and Aaron and Dayton. “How did you two—what? I don’t understand. Ivan, what the hell are you doing?” He laughed silently and stepped up to me. Then he took my hands in his and slowly linked our fingers. “Marry me,” he whispered. “Right now.” My lips parted and I shuddered out a breath. “For real? This isn’t a joke?” He shook his head. “Forever, Brenda. It’s only ever going to be you for me.” I looked over his shoulder at my best friend and her new husband. “But—they—” “Told me to,” he replied. “I like surprises, remember?” I opened my mouth, but how do you respond to the truth? I told him that once. “

    His tongue swirled and skimmed across my body, tasting every inch of my skin. Each lick was like a blazing swipe of fire, searing into me, branding me to him. As Ivan travelled down across my stomach, he hooked his fingers in the sides of my shorts and pulled. “No knickers. Good girl,” he hummed against my hips. “Surprise.” My voice hitched as he pressed his lips to the top of my thigh. He smiled against my skin and removed my shorts completely. After discarding his own shirt, he bent down and bend my legs up. My chest rose and fell frantically, my breathing harsh. His fingers teased the inside of my closed thighs, working their way between them. But more than that, his breath on my pussy. Oh, god. I closed my eyes as he parted my legs fully and blew on me. I clenched everywhere, anticipation trembling in my legs. “This,” he murmured, kissing m

    “Because they like to fuck with you.” I smiled sweetly. “What did they talk about today?”His face darkened. “When I slept with my student.”My curiosity piqued. I’ve never actually asked about it—why he did it. No matter how much I wanted to, it never seemed like the right time. Besides, it was not dinner conversation, was it?“And?” I asked, trying not to show my interest.I failed, because he smirked and joined me at the table. “Brenda, if you want to know, just ask me. It’s fresh in my mind, funnily enough.”“Uhh. Okay. Why did you do it?” I looked at him now.“Honestly, it was a mistake. I’d met her sister a couple of times, and there was only a couple of years between them. They looked very alike. I arranged to meet her sister for a few drinks one night, but i

    “Without this bitch?” I shoved the IV forward.“No, you’re not taking it out. They only just changed the bag. You know they said they’ll take it out when it’s empty. Now sit down and wait a minute.”I sat in the chair he was just in and grumbled something I didn’t even understand. I didn’t actually think I said any words, just a bunch of awkward, annoyed sounds put together.Truth was, I knew I had to keep the IV line in. I knew I had to stay there until they say otherwise, but the problem with hospitals is that they’re not exactly relaxing. They’re too clinical and sterile. And boring. Completely boring.“Okay,” Ivan said, coming back in. “You can get dressed and come down to the shop with me.”“And how hard did you have to charm her for that?” I grunted, getting up.

    I raised my eyebrows. “For once? So all the times I did what you wanted in bed don’t count?”His grin turned sexy. “You had to do that. We had an agreement.”“But they still count!”“When you’re better, you’ll have to remind me of how they count.” He curved his fingers around the back of my neck and kissed me. “Until then, though, you’re moving in with me.”“You already decided that.”“I know. But now I’m deciding again. And while you’re resting in bed, growing that beautiful baby and not vomiting all over my shiny toilet”—I punched his leg—“you can house hunt.”“House hunt?”“Yes. For us.”I blinked at him. “Um.”“Somewhere close to Day’s place.”

    I nodded. “Will it hurt the baby?”“No, the illness itself won’t, but the dehydration can. Normally, I would listen in to baby’s heartbeat now, but since you’re so early, I probably won’t be able to pick it up.”I curled my fingers around Ivan’s and squeezed. Hard. “So what? How can you check?”“We’ll take you for an ultrasound at nine a.m. We took blood when you came in and I rushed the HCG results. The numbers put you at around nine weeks, so we’ll get a clear view of baby on the screen.” She stood. “The best thing you can do is get some sleep.”“I’ll try.”“And, Brenda?” She opened the door and stopped. “Don’t worry. Sickness is usually a good sign. It means you have high hormone levels and a healthy baby in there.”

    “How the hell do you expect me to leave you? Look at you! I can’t walk out of here after seeing you like this! It goes against bloody everything in me to do that.”“But I told you I’d call if I needed you.” My head pounded and I closed my eyes. “You shouldn’t have been here in the first place, so just forget you ever came.” I pushed past him and pulled two Tylenol out of the drawer.And stared at the glass dumbly because I couldn’t fucking keep anything down.I threw the glass in the sink and it dropped with a smash. I rested my forehead against the fridge, the tears spilling over my eyes.“Brenda,” he whispered.“I’ve never been in so much fucking pain in my life. My head is thumping and my stomach hurts so bad, but there’s nothing I can do, because I can’t keep a single fuckin

    Mark laughed. “I didn’t mean it so simply. I mean that, once a day, take thirty minutes for yourself and do something that’s you. It’s all about perspective, Brenda. If you allow yourself to make everything about him, it will be.”“It’s not about allowing myself. I can’t help it. He’s the center of my world. Hell, he’s the center of my whole damn universe, and all I can do is hold on to his gravitational pull while I spin out of control.”“You can help it. Of course you can. It’s your decision, and you have control because you’re aware of it. You’re in the position where you can grab your addiction by the balls and deal with it.”“Is that professional lingo, Doctor? Grabbing addiction by the balls?”He half-grinned. “If it’s not, it should be. It’s a very

    All of it. For him. For me. For the baby.Without a second thought. Because we were more than addiction. It was hard to remember sometimes; we were stronger than the ties that bounded us in the beginning.We are not addiction. We are love in its strongest, purest form, no matter how wrinkly or rough it is. We are indestructible, and I truly believe that, one day, we’ll be able to weather any storm.Right now, we’re the eye of the storm. We’re the tornado touching down on the ground, and our relationship was in a whirlwind, destructive spin above us. If we try hard enough, we can slow the spin and the devastation.If we try hard enough, we can erase the storm and pave the way for the mess to be fixed.My bed dipped as I rolled over, yawning. I snuggled back into the covers and reached for the quilt. It felt like something hard, something warm, though. And
