I scooped her up into my arms, carrying her like the bride she was and headed up the stairs two at a time. We entered the room and I pinned her to the door, taking her mouth in a hard kiss. “I love you, Diana,” I grunted, before dropping my lips down her neck and into her cleavage.
The dress she had on was thin without all those damn layers, so I lifted the hem and pressed my mouth to her panties. Fuck, she smelled as good as she tasted. I slipped them off and pocketed them in my tux. Parting her thighs, I licked her sweet center.
“Diego,” she moaned, thrusting her hips forward. I teased her clit with my tongue while my fingers stroked her inside. She came hard, holding her scream back with her hand on her mouth.
I rose and undid my pants. I was about to fuck her like a maniac when she dropped to her knees and took me down her throat. I groaned with satisfaction and the fact that I was two seconds from coming. She wrapped her left hand around my length as she sucked on the tip. Fuck, I loved seeing that ring on her finger as she stroked my dick.
“I’m going to come,” I warned her, which only made her suck harder. I planted my hands on the back of her neck, trying not to fuck up her hair as I came. My breathing was harsh and my heart was thumping. When I finally finished giving her every drop I had, she popped my cock out of her mouth and started tucking me back into my suit.
I helped her back to her feet. “My love, you didn’t have to do that.”
“I didn’t want my thighs to be sticky and my dress to accidentally cling to it.”
“Smart woman. I love you, Diana.”
“Te amo, Diego.”
Chapter Twelve
Diana
“Push,” the doctor said for the eighth time in five minutes. I was ready to rip his head off if he did it again. I knew damn well when it was time to push. My body felt like it was being torn in two and I had to shit my brains out. This was intense and I wasn’t even done. “We’re almost there. The shoulders are the hard part,” he said. Diego was holding my hand and wiping my brow, being strong as hell for me, but I could see he was scared. It was that vulnerability in his eyes that kept me going.
“I don’t want you to go through this again,” he murmured.
“No more after these two?” I asked through gritted teeth. Yes, we were having twins. Which was hilarious because Lara, Tara, and their mates had one baby each. According to the ultrasound it was two boys. My sisters were jealous until they were worn out from lack of sleep. They hugged my mother-in-law daily, wondering how she did it with the boys. “No, I can’t take watching you in pain.” I squeezed his hand. Seeing the look in his eyes made me smile. “You may change your mind.”
“He just might,” my mother-in-law said. His parents came back two months ago and are staying for another three months. They’ve been moving between Hector and Alejandro, rotating to assist with the babies. Now his mother was here with me, helping me breathe. She wanted to stay with us for a week until I was comfortable with the two at once.
I screamed as another push hurt and then the sound of a wail broke through that pain. My baby was born and was shown to me. “Que bonito,” Ana exclaimed.
“Yes, he is beautiful,” Diego said. They let him cut the cord and they took the baby to clean him up. But I was not done yet. I groaned, and Diego was right back with me. “Mi amor, I’m sorry. We have our little Emilio. Thank you, mi reina.”
I’ve learned a bit of Spanish since we met and I love when he calls me his love, queen, and his world. If I wasn’t in the throes of labor I would be on him like white on rice. Another pain hit me hard.
“Whoa, it seems this baby has waited long enough. Give me one big hard push on the next contraction and he’ll be out.” The contraction came along with a wail; baby Marcello was born. I couldn’t be any happier than I was at that moment.
Epilogue
Diego
Five years passed by in a flash. My sweet Diana was making things happen with her designs. She had three contracts of her own outside of the Lopez Property projects. The former co-worker who was sentenced to four years for his crimes was released six months ago, but we hadn’t had any trouble with him. She was stellar, and made properties more valuable with her visions. Something about the spacing and building structure made them more valuable. Her designs added massive profit to the company, but it wasn’t even any of that. It was the fact that she smiled brightly with each compliment or job offer. She was getting so many that she actually turned a lot down.
With our babies going to school now, she didn’t have time to be working long hours. She didn’t want to let someone else pick them up from school. I understood her need to keep them safe, so either I grabbed them or the guys did when she couldn’t. Every morning she dropped them off then went into the office until it was time to pick them up. When I got home, my beautiful wife was either working, cooking, or helping with their homework. She was like a mommy machine. I was tired just watching her. The guys and I decided we needed to take a larger role in household things, so we did the grocery shopping for our families. The women almost fainted, but what kind of men were we if we left everything for our mates to do.
The sisters got together nearly every day and made magic happen while we sat in our offices making deals and managing our properties. Tonight, I had a surprise for Diana.
The boys were out of school for the holiday so we were taking a trip. I walked in the house to find my beautiful wife looking surprised and pointing to the several suitcases on the side of the large sofa.
“Hello, mi amor.”
“Hello yourself, Mr. Lopez,” she said, twisting her lips and arching her brow. “Is there something you need to tell me?”
“I’m taking you away, and the boys too. I see that you’re all packed. I’m going to shower and get ready.”
“I have work you know,” she argued. I walked up to her, enclosing her in my arms with my face inches from hers. “Don’t try to sweet talk me into going.”
“I’m not. We’re going and that’s it. You can work from anywhere and you don’t have any appointments scheduled, so end of story, my sweet.”
“Diego,”
“Don’t Diego me. This is important,” I muttered, looking in her eyes. She was being a bit difficult. Normally she was ready to travel when I wanted to or even if it was a last minute business trip she would go with me.
“Oh, you have a project opportunity where we’re going. I see.”
“Maybe I do, but since when have you been so against leaving?”
“Because I wanted to do something else tonight,” she whispered with a whine. I got the drift immediately. My baby wanted some loving and a trip would mean she wouldn’t get it until tomorrow.
“Sweetheart, are you horny?” I whispered in her ear. She nodded gently against the side of my face. I could smell her and yes, she was very ready for me.
“Give me a moment, mi vida.” I stepped away and pulled out my phone. “Dennis, delay the flight for another hour. I have something to tend to before I leave.”
“Yes, sir.” That was that. I tucked my phone in my pocket and looked over to my boys who were playing with their toy cars.
“We have to get ready to leave. Go into your playroom, boys.” They got up hugged me and then left. “You, wife, are coming with me.” I took her hand and pulled her to me, then flipped her over my shoulder. We were in our room within seconds. I stripped immediately. “Take off your clothes. Bathroom now,” I demanded as I pulled my belt through my loops fast and gave her a wink. Her knees buckled for a second before she scurried away, tossing off her clothes. I was always ready for her, but she was busy so it was when she had time. Granted, it wasn’t like we didn’t have sex every day, but it wasn’t all day long when we had off.
She was in the bathroom, standing there naked with a blush staining her face and neck. Diana was so damn beautiful and I couldn’t get enough. I rushed her, pulled her against me and kissed her. “I missed you,” she murmured as I lowered my lips down to her
hard nipples.
“I always miss you,” I muttered before sucking on her body. My hand made its way down to her wet heat, parting her thighs and caressing her slit. She moaned on my neck and I wasn’t done yet. I pushed a finger inside and she bucked. I added another and her pussy clenched around my fingers as I pumped them into her. “Come for me. Let me hear every cry, Diana.”
She came apart for me, moaning and crying out her orgasm. I turned her around and leaned her onto the marble countertop. She looked up into the mirror and I stared at her through it. “You look so damn sexy when you come. I’m so fucking hard this won’t be long, but I want you to see how hot you are.” I parted her thighs from behind with my knee and pushed my cock into her depths. Immediately, I felt the urge to come. Her body was made for me in every way.
“Diego, yes,” she chanted, spurring me on until I came deep inside her.
Diana
The flight was long, but I could tell we were headed to Europe. The morning sun was starting to rise when we passed a small castle. I turned my head to look at it, but we passed it and began to descend.
“Where are we, Diego?” I asked as we walked down the stairs. It was an open area, but I could see the castle in the distance.
“We’re in Spain.”
“Is this a new project?” I question, wondering if he was doing a remodel or a new build in a small town away from the airport.
“No, I’m done with it, but I wanted you to help me inspect it.” He assisted the boys into the waiting SUV. He kissed me, then led me to the passenger seat. The drive was short as we pulled up to the front of the castle. It was about a city block long with a pond to the side and massive landscaping around the entrance and driveways.
The castle itself had four spires. It was a mix of Buckingham Palace and Edinburgh Castle, just as I’d designed in one of my sketches. It was beautiful. “You made this?”
“I had it made with one of your designs. Welcome to your castle, my queen.”
“Wow, this is for me?” I asked, sobbing and clinging to my king. He nodded and laughed, tightening his hold on me.
“Yes, it’s for you, and us of course. I know it’s big for the four of us, but I know you’ve dreamt of it since you were a little girl.”
“Thank you, but there will be five of us in about eight months.”
“What?” He let me go and stared down at my belly. It was still flat as I’d only found out yesterday I was a few weeks along.
“Surprise!” I exclaimed.
“Hopefully it’s a little princess for the castle.”
“Papi, I hope it’s a girl,” Milo said, touching my belly.
Diego tilted his head and asked him, “You don’t want another brother?”
“If it’s a girl, then we can have a dragon,” he replied with wide eyes.
“And a moat and drawbridge,” Marcello added. They were so excited about it that Diego and I just laughed.
And eight months later we welcomed a little girl, Thalia. No dragons, but daddy didn’t think the moat was a bad idea, especially once she was a teenager.
Hector and Lara Meet
Chapter One
Lara
“T, I want to wear that dress,” I whined to my younger by ten minutes twin sister. The house was clean and ready for our little get together in the woods. We’d inherited three houses, one for each of us Bacon girls. My twin and I had the two smaller ones that are closer together and our older sister, Diana, had the massive one down the road. Each of the houses were beautiful just from the images we received at the will reading. Why two complete strangers wanted to give them to us was a mystery, but you never look a gift horse in the mouth. We signed the papers and now we were ready to celebrate.
What was interesting was the owners must have been leasing them out because you could see some things that belonged to men. I wondered if there were workers in the area that must have stayed here instead of making the long drive. It was quite a ways from our home in Colorado Springs.
She adjusted the dress and stared at herself in the mirror. “Bitch, I don’t care. I grabbed it first. Besides, it doesn’t go with your eyes.” It was all black, it went with everything. I loved the neckline that cut square and low across my cleavage. We both had more than enough chest to make it super sexy, but she was being a brat.
“You fucking twat, if it doesn’t match my eyes it doesn’t match yours,” I countered. I threw her a glare and flipped her off.
“It’s the personality written in mine.” I rolled my eyes at her, but Tara was a sweetheart with sass enough for the world. We were truly total opposites in tastes, but, strange as it may be, it worked and made us closer. She was carefree and fun-loving, I wasn’t. It was our parents’ deaths that had only made things worse. I was fearful and hesitant and Tara thought that life could be taken at any time so you should live it up. She was right, so I tried to follow her lead.
We traveled, flirted with danger, and came back home to our overly protective big sister. Our parents’ death made her our protector. Our grandparents were just out to make us happy and let us do as we pleased. Now we’re ready to party. The music and drinks were set up and everything was ready to go but us.
“Whatever, your ass looks fat in it anyway. I’ll go with the red dress. Maybe we’ll find some boyfriends there. You did remember to invite tons of people, right?”
“Of course, I did. Do I look stupid to you?” she asked, while staring at herself in the mirror, eyes wide as she applied her mascara.
“Is that a rhetorical question?” I asked, laughing as I walked back into the closet to get the dress. I came back out with it in my hands, swinging it from side to side.
“I’m going to beat your ass one day,” she said while applying her gloss and mean mugging me through the mirror.
“No, you won’t because you love me.” I gave her a squeeze and left to get dressed, catching her smiling as I did so.
The house wasn’t huge. It had three bedrooms and an office. I didn’t have the key to the latter, but if I didn’t get one, I’d call a locksmith to come and change it. Not that I would have a need for it anyway. I wasn’t the book smart one. All the brains must have went to Diana. I was on my way to being a cop. I didn’t tell anyone because my sisters would be completely against it. Not in today’s climate, but after our parents’ death, I felt there needed to be more good guys and less devils on the streets. Tara and I joked that since we were twins, we must have had to split the IQ. I walked into the main bedroom closet.
I freaking loved it and the clothes already in it. The man that left here smelled incredible to me. Everything in the room smelled like him. There was a windbreaker hanging and I had to press my nose into it every time I came into this room. We only got here yesterday, and I swear I keep hoping he’ll show up. I shoved it back in place and grabbed the other dress I had packed.
I slipped on the red dress with a pair of heels and felt extremely feminine. Maybe my mystery man would show tonight. That thought is the only reason I was dressing so sexy tonight because it was only a house party with a couple of our friends.
I took my makeup bag out of my suitcase and went to work making myself look irresistible. Once I was done fixing my face, I totally looked like a vamp. My black heels were tied with a bow at my ankles and the hem of the dress barely covered my ass. I wore my favorite black and red heart necklace. They were my favorite colors.
“I’m going to wear my hair up, you?” I asked Tara, taking in my current look. My face was a bit pink today. I wondered why I was feeling hot, it was crazy how flushed I was.
“I think the same. You know this air out here isn’t good for our hair.”
“Frizz central,” I grunted. Our hair was only curly when wet, but it was the humidity that turned us into little Chows. I made my hair tight and smooth adding some smoothing serum and giving it a once over with a comb. It was perfect. I stared at myself, knowing that I looked good, but I still felt like something was missing. I had to fin
d out what it was. My body was burning with a heat that was unexplainable.
“Lara, goodness, I feel so hot,” Tara exclaimed.
“It’s not that warm outside today. Let me check the thermostat,” I said. I walked out of the room just as there was a knock at the door.
Chapter Two
Hector
“Bro, why the fuck did they give away our property?” Alejandro asked our older brother, Diego. We had just learned the homes we stayed in when we wanted to be alone in the mountains had been given away. How my grandparents managed it was a surprise to us.
“I don’t know. They weren’t senile or anything. I looked into it and it’s all legal. I’ve been over it with our lawyers. I think we need to contact these ladies and pay them to leave.” I could hear Diego’s frustration. It was his little sanctuary from the busy life. He went up there to read and relax.
“We can. We’re going up there today. I want to start considering packing up our things. It’s not a lot of shit, but I refuse to let these broads take what belongs to me. Plus, I need to clear out my office.” I was so damn pissed off about this, for all of us. It didn’t make any sense. How dare someone take my favorite place, the one I thought I would one day bring my mate to while we loved each other every night.
“Well, they can be there already. Let me pull their information.”
“No, don’t bother. I’m not even going to say a thing to them. I just want my stuff. I’ve got plenty of money to buy another house.” I loved Diego, but he was the typical levelheaded older brother. He controlled everything and didn’t have any fun outside of building shit. He was obsessed with reading. I didn’t pick up anything that didn’t come in magazine form, specifically sports. I played football in college, but never wanted to go pro because I wanted to be part of the family business.
