Placing the ice cube on her bare stomach, Sierra jumped up. “Shit! That is cold, you bastard. What in the hell is wrong with you, Aaron? It’s called relaxing! Honeymoon . . . relax . . . eat . . . and have sex! Not make me jump up from complete and utter bliss into a tensed-up mess.”
Laughing, I pulled her closer to me. “We’re anchored off shore and the crew went in to eat lunch and give us some privacy. Are you hungry?”
Licking her lips, Sierra nodded as she stood and made her way over to the table that was set up with every kind of food you could think of. Letting out a moan, Sierra sat in the chair. “I’m going to gain thirty pounds just from this trip to Spain.”
Nodding my head, I laughed and sat across from her. The table was adorned with fresh fish, vegetables, fruit and cheese. Sierra took a bite and moaned as my dick jumped in my shorts. I could hardly think straight looking at her sitting across from me in that damn bikini of hers. Her body was amazing and her blonde hair seemed lighter in just the two weeks we had been in Spain. The weather had been amazing. Sierra had to go and buy a swimsuit after we landed in Valencia and she felt how warm it was. If we were staying on the ocean, she wanted to swim . . . in the pool.
“Oh my, this is heavenly. So good,” Sierra said between bites.
“Don’t eat too much; the hot tub is ready and I don’t want you being too full.”
Tilting her head and giving me a sly smile, I felt my stomach do that little flipping thing it did when Sierra touched me and I didn’t expect it. “Hot tub?” she asked in a sexy voice.
“Got to check it off your sex bucket list, baby.”
Standing up quickly, Sierra began stripping out of her bathing suit. “I’m not hungry for food anymore.” Following her lead, I got undressed, picked her up and carried her over to the hot tub that was located on the deck of the yacht I had rented for the day.
Slipping into the hot water, we both let out a relaxing moan. It didn’t take Sierra long though to make her way over to me, straddle me and sink her pussy down onto my dick. She rode me to one of the most intense orgasms I’d ever had as she pulled and twisted at her nipples as she called out my name.
Yep. This bucket list was the best damn thing ever.
Sierra and I sat in the hot tub for a bit before I got out and handed her a towel to wrap up in. “Shall we head down below to shower?” I asked as Sierra gave me a brilliant smile.
Taking my hand, I led Sierra below deck.
Best time of my life.
Stepping out of the shower, I was ready for more of my beautiful wife. I had every intention on finishing up her bucket list on our honeymoon.
“Will you try something with me?” I asked as Sierra’s mouth gaped open slightly before she licked her lips.
“Is it what I think it is? A certain position on a certain bucket list?”
Nodding my head, I laid down on the bed and motioned for Sierra to come here.
Chewing on her lower lip, I could see her cheeks flush.
We soon found ourselves laid across the bed in a sixty-nine position as I brought out two orgasms from Sierra. I was glad as hell Sierra had never done some of the things on her sex bucket list, and I got to be the one to fulfill them. It was my job to make each of them come true. It was a hard job, but someone had to do it.
Lying in the bed, I slowly moved my fingers up and down Sierra’s arm. “Tell me what you’re thinking about,” I said as I pulled her to me and kissed her.
“How amazing this honeymoon has been. How incredibly romantic our wedding on the beach at sunset last night was. I’m also thankful you didn’t pass out at that wedding like you did at the first one.”
Rolling my eyes, I shuddered at the idea of Lark spending the next five years . . . if not longer . . . cracking jokes about me passing out at my own wedding.
Resting her chin on my chest, Sierra gave me a sexy smile. “Tell me what you’re thinking.”
Running my fingers through her hair, I wondered how I got so damn lucky with this woman in my arms. “That I don’t want to wait.”
“Don’t want to wait until what?” Wiggling her eyebrows, she said, “Are you excited about the Nordstrom’s sale? I knew you would come around and fall in love with that store.”
Shaking my head, I made a huff. “Please. That little ass in the shoe department flirts with you every single time you go in.”
“That’s because I almost made him my boy-toy.”
Pulling my chin back to look at her better, I asked with a laugh, “What?”
Nodding her head, she said, “Yep.” Popping her p. “I almost went with fresh meat. I was picky though. I wanted an experienced dick.”
“Oh my God. You did not just say that to me. Do you hear the things that come out of your mouth sometimes?”
Turning her head, she rested it down on my chest again. “Yes, I hear and yes, I did say it. Do you think Tom in shoes could have done something like we just did? Hell no. He’d come the moment I told him to take his clothes off.”
Shaking my head, I said, “Change of subject, please.”
Laughing, Sierra let out a sigh. “Okay sorry, what are you ready for?”
Taking in a slow long breath, I blew out my cheeks and then slowly let the air out as I watched Sierra’s head move with my breathing. I could feel my heart beat increasing, and I was both nervous and excited. “I’m ready to have kids . . . now.”
Turning quickly to look at me, Sierra wore a shocked expression on her face. “What? I thought you said—”
Putting my fingers to her lips, I shook my head. “Let’s not even think about it right now. Let’s enjoy our honeymoon. We still have another week, and I still have to figure out how I’m going to have sex with you on the beach with no one around. But if you’re ready, I’ll let you make the decision on when to stop taking the pill. I just wanted you to know I’m ready to start trying.”
Sitting up, I watched as a tear slowly made its way down Sierra’s cheek. Reaching up, I wiped it away. Sierra placed her hand over mine.
Her eyes filled with something I’d never seen before as she attempted to talk at least three times. Finally getting her wits about her, Sierra said, “When I was a little girl, I would dream about my prince charming. The daydreams started right after my mother passed away. I used to have terrible nightmares and I remember making my father check under my bed and in my closet for the monster that haunted my dreams each night.”
Frowning, I rubbed my thumb lightly across her cheek.
“During the day, I would make up for my nightmares by daydreaming. It was always the same dream I would play out in my head as I sat in my room. My prince charming would ride up on a white steed. He had dark hair and the bluest of blue eyes.” Smiling, she slightly shook her head. “I used to think they were blue like the sky. I could stare into them forever and feel safe. Once he rode up to me, he would shout up to my window that he was there to save me from the monsters.” Tears flowed freely as I sat up and pulled her onto my lap.
“You are my dark-haired, blue-eyed prince, Aaron. You saved me from the monster that haunted my dreams, and I finally feel like I’m going to get my happily ever after.”
Bringing her lips up to mine, I smiled. “Sierra, look into my eyes.” Placing her hand over my heart, I whispered, “You’ll never have to search for your prince again. Everything I do is for you. From this moment on, life has begun for both of us. You are my entire world, baby. You are the only person who had ever looked beyond the broken man I was to see what truly lied beneath all that other stuff.”
Sierra shook her head as she bit down on her lip.
My heart felt so full of love, it almost hurt. “I swear to you, Sierra, I will forever fight for our love, because there is no love like ours.”
Sierra’s eyes lit up as she smiled. “What about when we’re old and gray? Will you forget me?”
Shaking my head, I pulled her lips to mine and slowly kissed her. Pulling back some, I whispered against her lips, “Impos
sible. A love like ours is unforgettable.”
THE END
Six months later
PRINCESS SAT RIGHT NEXT TO me as I lazily moved my fingers up and down her soft fur. The April thunderstorm was rolling across the Texas Hill Country as the thunder echoed through the valleys, calming my racing thoughts some.
Looking down at Princess, I smiled. She had been constantly by my side or following me around for the last two months. I’d wake up in the middle of the night with her next to me and her head resting on my stomach as she stared at me. At first it freaked me the hell out. Now, I thought it was the most precious thing ever.
Placing my hands over my stomach, I smiled. Tears began to build as I thought about telling Aaron. Did I just blurt it out? Tell him while we made love? Maybe I should tell him over a candlelit dinner.
Princess jumped up the moment she heard Aaron’s truck coming down the driveway. Standing, I took one last look out over the hills. I loved it out here. Aaron and I had bought a house a few miles west of Austin. We had seven acres of land, which was plenty for us. The four-bedroom, four-bath house was perfect. Not too small and not too big. Just right for us to start a family. Taking in a deep breath, I headed back into the house and to the kitchen as I looked down at my shaking hands.
Sitting down at the bar, I tried like hell to calm my racing heart. Wiping my sweaty hands on my pants, I took in one slow breath after another.
Act normal. Act normal.
Aaron came walking into the kitchen and the whole atmosphere changed. It was charged instantly and I started squirming in my seat to ease the throbbing between my legs.
Giving me a smile that took my breath away, Aaron walked up to me and kissed me on the lips . . . passionately. “Hey there, beautiful.”
“Hey,” I whispered against his lips.
“How are you feeling? What did the doctor say?”
Shit. Shit. Shit. “Um . . . well I don’t have the flu, so that’s good,” I said with a weak smile. My heart was racing as I watched Aaron move about the kitchen.
“Oh good. I was hoping you didn’t have the flu.”
Trying to remain calm and not blurt out my news, I took in a deep breath as Aaron stepped back and gave me the most glorious smile. Aaron pulled out a bottle of my favorite wine and wiggled his eyebrows. “I won the case.”
Jumping up, I let out a scream and jumped into his arms. “Oh my gosh, Aaron! That’s amazing! I didn’t know the ruling was today.”
Giving me a wink, Aaron pulled one of the kitchen drawers open and took out the wine opener. “Well, with you feeling so bad the last few days, I didn’t want to stress you out with it.”
Shaking my head, I said, “Aaron! I always want to be a part of your world . . . your whole world. I’m so happy for you. I bet your father was thrilled.”
Letting out a laugh, Aaron opened the bottle of wine and grabbed two glasses.
Oh hell. How do I get out of this one?
Pouring wine into both glasses, he said, “Dad was beyond thrilled. It’s going to be announced next week about me making partner.”
Oh . . . this was turning out to be the most amazing day ever.
Walking over to me, Aaron handed me the glass of wine. Taking it, I noticed my hands were shaking. I could hear my heart beat in my ears it was pounding so hard.
Aaron smiled as he said, “To me winning.”
Clinking the glass to mine, I said, “Cheers.”
Chewing on my lower lip, I looked at the glass of wine. Moving it up to my lips, I barely took a drink.
Aaron chuckled. “That’s it? A little sip? Baby, take a drink! We’re celebrating.”
Swallowing hard, I gave Aaron a smile. “Um . . . I’m not really in the mood for wine.”
Aaron’s eyes softened as he pulled me to him. “Damn, you still can’t keep anything down?”
I didn’t want to lie to Aaron and truth be told, I was dying to tell him.
Holding my finger up, I placed my wine glass on the bar and I walked over to my purse to get the sonogram picture. Once Doctor Wilkins asked me a few questions, she suggested taking a pregnancy test first before we tested for the flu. I had mentioned we had been trying to have a baby, and she immediately had me peeing in a cup. My periods had been all kinds of messed up since I stopped taking birth control. I’d gone the first two months with no period at all. When I barely spotted the third month, I gave up on doing the home pregnancy tests because each time was a letdown. My emotions couldn’t take it anymore. I had one normal period in February and then nothing again in March. I hadn’t even paid attention that I hadn’t started yet in April.
Pulling out the envelope, I smiled and turned around. Aaron was staring at me with a confused look on his face.
Walking back over to him, I handed him the envelope. “Here ya go.” Looking at it and then back to me, Aaron set his wineglass down next to mine.
“What’s this?” he asked as he opened the envelope.
I held my breath as he began to pull the paper out. I had stopped at Hobby Lobby on the way home and bought some cute scrapbook paper. I glued our baby’s first picture onto it and then stamped out the words, Daddy’s little angel. Something deep within me told me it was a girl.
“W-what . . . what is . . .” Aaron stared at the paper for the longest time. When I saw the tears fall from his eyes, I began crying as I covered my mouth. Running his fingers lightly over the picture, Aaron looked at me.
“Sierra,” he whispered.
Whispering back, I said, “Aaron.”
Looking back down at the picture, Aaron shook his head. “A baby. Oh my God. We’re having a baby.”
Letting out a half-laugh, half-sob, I said, “Yep. We’re finally pregnant. I’m about six weeks along.”
Aaron gently placed the picture down on the island before turning back and gently taking me in his arms. “I never in my life thought I could be this happy.”
Sobbing, I barely was able to speak. “Me either.”
Aaron reached down and lifted me as Princess began barking. “I’m taking you to bed and slowly making love to you all night long,” Aaron said as he made his way to our bedroom.
Wrapping my arms tighter around his neck, I let out a giggle. “What about food? I’m eating for two now ya know, and I’m craving The Salt Lick.”
“I’ll pay for Em and Zach to go get it and leave it at the front door.”
Laughing, I shook my head.
Aaron slowly slid me down his body. The moment my feet touched the ground, he was pulling his lips to mine again and kissing me until it felt as if I couldn’t breathe. Leaning his forehead against mine, Aaron let out a sigh.
“I love you, Sierra. Thank you for making all my dreams come true.”
Lifting my hand up, I pushed my fingers through his hair. “Well . . . it was either you or Tom, the shoe salesman at Nordstrom.”
Laughing, Aaron pushed me onto the bed as we quickly became lost in each other.
That moment . . . that day . . . that night, quickly became the most amazing and unforgettable night of my life.
And I got my Salt Lick barbecue.
Life couldn’t get any better.
