It's starting to feel like a conspiracy.

I’m feeling a bit desperate for that sweet connection only found in my Gabriel’s arms.

Yes, he touches me.Yes, he tells me he loves me. Every. Day.

Yet, it’s not the same. I’m needing an intimate joining of the bodies only he can provide, and it’s more than a quick encounter in the shower. We’ve been stealing moments for months. I need a good, long, sound fucking—like weusedto have.

“Hey, you okay?” Reese slides in next to me on the second-floor balcony.

I just finished nursing Madd, then Gabriel took her downstairs to feed her solids along with Maddox. Tired and worn out, I stepped out here needing a minute for a pity party before putting on my adulting hat and making the best of my sexless existence. I nod and swipe under my eyes. “I’m good.” I’m tired as fuck, but I’m good.

She nudges my shoulder. “Yeah, I can see that. How can I help?”

Help? She’s the one not feeling all that great. She’s only come out with us once when we went snowmobiling and threw up right after. “I feel like I should be asking you that.” I take a sip of coffee and offer her my mug. “Feeling any better?”

“Nope. Not even a little.” She smells the coffee, grimaces and hands it back.

Thatdoesn’t look like altitude sickness… “Are you…?” I leave the question hanging.

“Don’t know.” She quickly looks over her shoulder and over the railing to the lower-level balcony then shrugs. “I’m waiting till tomorrow to find out.”

“Why? You can still wait to tell him.” Or is there another reason?

Her smile is endearing. “I can’t keep a secret from Cam to save my life.”

“Hear that.” Especially one as big as this. We’re all in baby-making mode. I think Taylor even has the bug.

“I’m staying here today. I need to catch up on some sleep or at least not expend more energy than I have,” I admit, having just come to that conclusion.

She laughs. “I imagine Gabriel is hard to keep up with.”

“Not usually,” I consider. “Though, I don’t spend all day doing athletic things with him. So, in reality, I probably never could keep up. But I’m blaming it on Madd and lack of sleep.”

“Sounds like a plan I can get behind. I’m staying in too. Maybe Cher would like to go today if you’re okay watching the kids with me.”

I turn to head downstairs. “Considering two of the little monsters are mine, seems only fair I should contribute.”

Then tonight, Gabriel is all mine.

CAP

“Fuck, Plum, this mouth.” I grip the shower wall instead of her hair, my body urging me to ram my cock down her throat, my heart telling me to let her do as she wishes.

It’s a battle, but her touching me—in any way—is a win.

“Fuck.” I reach for her but stop as she circles my head, licking the seam before sucking lightly then taking me deep. My abs and ass tighten, fighting the need to thrust, feed her my cock one deep rail at a time.

Head back, eyes closed, I groan when she tries to take all of me. Her choking has me pulling out. “Cher, baby.” I cup her cheeks and swipe at her tears. “Did I do that?” Did I unconsciously do what my mind was playing over and over in my head?

“No,” she gasps, wiping the saliva from her chin and mouth.

Whether I did or not, she’s done. “C’mere.” I lift her in my arms.

“James—”

I squelch her protest in a searing kiss, finally letting loose, feeding her my tongue like I wanted to do with my cock. Like I plan to do when I’m inside her sweet, sweet pussy. I love her mouth on me and theideaof her choking on my cock, but in reality, I feel like a tool when she does.
