“God, I hope not. I didn’t get any sleep when I was pregnant with her.”

“Yeah, I remember,” he said. “But it was exciting to feel her move.” His fingers expanded across my entire stomach before he slid it around my waist again. “How about we have Lars watch them for the night so we can go out to dinner? Maybe stop by the house on the coast?”

Having two kids made it difficult to have alone time but Crow and I made it work whenever we could. We loved spending time with our kids but we loved the times when it was just the two of us. Two hours a day seemed to be enough to keep us happy. “That sounds perfect.”

***

Crow pressed his ear to my naked stomach and listened.

“I’m telling you, there’s nothing going on down there. She’s sleepy.”

“She?” He sat up and looked at me.

“Yeah, it’s a girl.” There wasn’t a doubt in my mind.

“How do you know that?”

“I don’t know…I just do.”

“But this pregnancy is nothing like the one you had with Vanessa.”

“Yeah.” She was by far the most difficult pregnancy. “But I just know. Trust me, it’s a mother thing.”

He kissed my stomach before he moved further up the bed. His thighs separated mine and the dark look in his eyes told me what he wanted to do next. He seemed to be proud of his handiwork knocking me up, and that stroked his ego and made him want to make love even more. “I want to keep getting you pregnant for as long as I can.”

“Uh, no thanks.” Three kids were enough. Even with the help of the staff, I couldn’t handle a fourth.

“Come on, it’s sexy.” He pressed the tip of his cock against my entrance but didn’t enter me.

“Yeah, for a while. But you don’t have to waddle around the house like a cow.”

“You don’t look like a cow.” He rubbed his nose against mine. “When you waddle it gets me so hard. Seeing you pregnant with my kid…nothing is a bigger a turn on.”

“Even so, this is the last one. But we can pretend we’re trying to get pregnant.”

“Not the same.” Crow went from being hesitant to having kids to needing as many as possible. He gave up his former job in a heartbeat when I was pregnant with Vanessa, and there was nowhere else he’d rather be than at home with me and the kids.

I chuckled when I realized just how different he was. His innate darkness had faded, and the light that shined in his eyes whenever he looked at his kids.

Crow caught the reaction. “What?”

“Nothing.”

He didn’t shove himself inside me even though he was desperate to. “What?” He gripped both of my wrists and pinned them over my head, dominating me the second he didn’t get his way.

“I just think it’s amusing how different you are. You’re nothing like the man I met all those years ago.”

Slowly, the hardness of his eyes and jaw faded.

“It’s like you’re a different person.”

He relaxed his hold on my wrists and continued to stare at me. “I am a different man.”

“In a very good away.” I ran my hands up my chest before I pulled his hips into me, wanting him deep inside me.

He kept his hips straight and didn’t move. “When you came to my home you said I saved you. I saved you from that ruthless man who’s name I’ll never say again. You claim I put you back together and fixed you.”

My eyes never left his.

“But you saved me, Button. I wouldn’t have everything I didn’t know I wanted without you.” His hand cupped my cheek and he rubbed his nose against mine, giving me delicate touches I’d come to expect every morning and every night.

“We saved each other.”
