“I love you,” I whispered.
She grinned against my lips. “You might have to love me a few more times tonight to coax this baby of yours out of my body.”
It was my turn to grin. “Only too happy to oblige, darlin’.”
True to my word, I made love to my queen later that night, and again in the early hours of the following morning. But still our little princess took her time in arriving.
She finally showed up two days later, just before midnight.
When she was ready.
And when she came into the world, Anjelica Sasse Calley arrived screaming.
Later the next morning, I stood in the doorway of Cassidy’s hospital room and watched my wife with our two beautiful daughters, my heart overflowing with gratitude for everything I had in my life. I didn’t regret a thing because everything I’d done and everything I’d been through—all the good and all the bad—led me to this one amazing life where I was a father and a husband, and so fucking happy it almost seemed unreal. The past was gone. Buried behind me where it belonged. Now these beautiful females were my world. My life. My heart. And until I took my last breath, I would give my all, my everything, to the most important thing in the world to me.
My family.
