Never, ever , ever .
I didn’t care if we both lived to a hundred and fifty. He was mine and I was his and I would not be bored for a second .
Especially when his shirt was off .
“You could use it as a stage name. The name your mother gave you and the one your husband did .”
I exhaled in wonder. I hadn’t thought about that. It was perfect .
“Diana Donahue. I like it .”
He pressed a quick kiss to my lips. He was always doing that. Always kissing or finding excuses to touch me throughout the day .
He made me feel so loved .
Safe. Protected . Home .
Not to mention cherished and desired .
“So do I. You tell me what you want me to call you, and I will. Whatever you want. Except Kaylie or Janet, because that would be confusing .”
I giggled into my hand, shaking my head .
“I’m used to Sally now. I think it will be nice to be Diana on stage once in a while, but that’s enough .”
“Whatever you say, Sally .”
He winked at me .
“You know, I’m the one who wins in this particular scenario .”
“ How so ?”
“Because.” He grinned. “It’s almost like I have two wives .”
He pushed me back onto the bed and started crawling up my body .
“Two hot, incredibly sexy wives that happen to look very much alike .”
“Uh huh. So you married sisters ?”
He nipped my thigh, grazing the skin with his teeth .
“That’s right. One is quiet and shy. But she’s smart, see? People never know how sweet and special she is unless they take the time to draw her out of her shell .”
“She sounds lovely .”
“She is. She’s the one with the perfect knockers .”
My giggle turned into a gasp as he nuzzled my chest, making my nipples poke out through my cotton t-shirt .
“And the other sister ?”
He settled his hips between my thighs, licking the sensitive skin of my throat in a way that made me tingle all over my body .
“She’s the glamorous one. Incredibly talented. Great legs .”
“Wow. That must be a lot of fun for you .”
He nodded, murmuring his agreement .
“I’m the luckiest man alive .”
He kissed my lips and tugged off my pajama bottoms, his calloused hands scraping my skin in a delicious way. I smiled and started pulling his shirt up and over his head. I sighed in pleasure as his thickly muscled chest pressed against mine. He was so hot, it was like having my own personal furnace .
Lilly was sleeping safe and sound over at his mother’s place next door. She had two protectors over there, with Donnie’s little sister being the most fierce .
I knew how blessed we were. I thanked God for it every single day of my life. A few years ago, I’d been alone and scared. The truth was, I’d been running for my life. Now I was surrounded by a loving husband and his family and friends who were pretty much my family too. The club circled us all like a ring of fire .
I had come so far from the frightened girl I had been. I had learned to fight back. I even had my music again .
But most of all, I had this beautiful, generous, loving man who cherished me above anything else on Earth .
Well, other than our sweet little Lilly .
He’d given me everything. The moon. The stars. And his gorgeous, willing body .
And now we could relax and have some alone time .
Donahue didn’t waste a second, stripping rapidly and reaching for my panties. I giggled as he pulled them off with a grunt. I was still wearing a shirt. It seemed so silly to wear a shirt with nothing on the bottom half .
I stopped giggling very quickly .
“Donnie …”
He licked my pussy like he was a starving man. He probably was starving. We hadn’t had adult playtime in about a week, and it had been a while before that. But he kept trying .
My man was nothing if not persistent .
So he was pretty pent up .
I wasn’t complaining though. He was making me wild. I tossed my head back and forth on the pillows as an orgasm wracked my body. I was still shuddering and shivering when he slipped his silky hot shaft inside me with a groan .
Oh my .
“Hmmmfff… Sally… you feel so good …”
His eyes widened as he noticed my shirt. He pushed it up to my armpits and we both sighed in pleasure as our chests collided. His chest was so warm and chiseled, but silky. I was so soft. He was hard. It felt like heaven .
“Sweetheart ?”
“ Hmm hmmm ?”
“I want this to last .”
“ Uh huh .”
“I can’t… fuck! I’m not going to …”
I slipped my arms around my big, beautiful man. He looked so worried. And like I was rocking his socks off at the same time. It was adorable .
“I’m not a bit tired .”
He groaned in ecstasy as my words sank in .
“Sally…. oh that’s good. I’m gonna… hmmmmffff… I’m gonna keep you up for a while .”
I got the tingles I got every time before he finished. It was like he was talking to me. Sending me a message with his cock .
And it always made me come .
We held tight to each other as our bodies vibrated with the force of our mutual orgasms. It took a while to come down. And we did in fact take a brief nap .
But Donnie was a man of his word .
He kept me up very, very late .
Chapter Thirty-Eight
Becky
“S he’s just beautiful .”
Janet leaned over me on one side while I changed Eliza. Sally was leaning over the other. Kaylie had run for the bathroom as soon as I took off the diaper .
Her morning sickness was severe. Janet had winked at me. She was lucky, she only had it in the mornings. But poor Kaylie had it all day long .
“She’s stunning!” Sally agreed .
I saw her giving Donahue a soft melting look over her shoulder. I knew they wanted another baby. I was sure they would have one, even if it was taking a little while .
Whiskey popped his head in .
“Want me to do that ?”
I laughed, shaking my head. I’d never met a man who loved changing diapers. But it wasn’t just that .
He loved everything about taking care of Eliza. He even went out of his way to make my life easier too. Once I’d said yes to moving in, he sprang into action, taking care of everything. Every single day he made sure to watch the baby for a few hours at a time so I could focus on packing .
He was the one who got the empty boxes from the store. He taped up every one of those boxes. He labeled them too .
I shook my head. My man was extremely organized .
We’d done all the prep. His house was baby proofed to the nines, even though I’d told him it was early to worry about that stuff. She wasn’t crawling yet so the likelihood of her sticking her chubby little finger into a socket was zero .
But he’d done it all anyway. He even painted the living room, bedroom and nursery. And next week he was painting the exterior of the house. I’d even picked out a soft mint color for the trim and shutters, with glossy black for the front door .
Just like he promised .
And now it was all happening. For real. Mae was inconsolable that we were moving out, which was the only dark cloud of this perfect, wonderful, fabulous day .
Today was moving day .
The guys were loading the small truck out front. Whiskey had already put my good hanging clothes in the back of his car. He’d even brought a cooler to bring the backup breast milk in the fridge .
The man was truly a marvel .
Kaylie came back in, looking sheepish .
“ You okay ?”
She nodded .
“Sorry. It’s not you, little Miss Petunia .”
> She tickled the baby’s tummy. Eliza kicked her fat little feet in the air, squealing in excitement. She loved being tickled. And she was always chipper when she got a fresh diaper .
I gave Kaylie a rueful smile .
“I don’t think she was offended .”
Kaylie laughed weakly. She looked beautiful as always, but a bit tired .
“Hey, you don’t have to be here. Maybe you want to go home and rest ?”
She shook her head adamantly .
“No, I can’t leave. Not yet .”
Janet elbowed her ribs .
“Ow! Er, I mean, if I nap now I won’t be able to nap later. And if I don’t nap later I won’t be able to stay up long enough for dinner with Dev .”
She shifted nervously on her feet .
“I don’t want to mess up my schedule .”
I gave her a suspicious look .
“You’re babbling .”
“It’s the hormones .”
“Uh huh.” I said, not all convinced. “Whatever you say .”
“Come on, let’s get going !”
We stepped out of the way as the guys came in for the last of the furniture .
I watched as the changing table was carried out by Callaway and Donnie. I took a last look around the room. Other than the year I spent alone and pregnant in that crappy apartment, this had been it. My first home as a mother. My rocking chair and Eliza’s crib were already outside .
This was really happening .
God, I hoped it would work out .
Sally asked if she could carry the baby and I nodded my agreement. I followed the girls outside and there he was, my man, loading one last box into the truck .
Every time I saw him, it felt like the first time. I sighed .
What a man .
“Okay. All your stuff is in the truck. It’s time .”
I smiled at him. He looked so serious. Almost like he was worried about something. He nodded once and I looked over my shoulder to see what he was looking at. Everyone had come out of the house to stand on the front stoop behind me .
Mae was openly crying now, but she looked like she was… smiling ?
I turned back to Whiskey .
“Time for what exactly ?”
He lowered himself on one knee and time stopped .
Oh my God. Oh my God. Oh my God .
What .
Was .
Happening .
He pulled a black velvet jewelry box out of his pocket and held it out. I felt my stomach do a back flip as he opened it. It was a simple gold band with a solitaire diamond set inside a small gold heart. It was not too big and flashy .
It was perfect and very, very pretty .
“Before you say anything, I want you to know that I picked this ring out last year .”
He knew just what I was thinking. How did he do that? I tried to smile but I was too close to tears .
“ You did ?”
“Yes. I’m not asking you because of Eliza. I’m asking you because this is what I have always wanted. I want you to be my wife .”
Tears filled my eyes. No wonder Mae was crying. I was on the verge of blubbering myself .
I’d been worried that he would ask someday. Worried that he would ask for the wrong reasons. But everything he had just said washed my doubts away .
“So, what do you think ?”
“Whiskey …”
He looked expectant. Nervous even. He was such a big, strong man but I knew he wasn’t even a little bit tough where I was concerned .
When it came to me and Eliza, he was a big ol’ softy .
“There is nothing I want more in the world .”
It took a second for that to sink in .
“That’s a yes. Right? You are saying yes ?”
I nodded, the tears falling freely now. I didn’t even bother to wipe them away. My lip was quivering a little bit .
“I’m saying yes .”
He let out a loud whoop and stood up. He pulled me into his arms and nearly crushed me, he was squeezing so hard. He kissed me deeply, making our friends ooh and ahhh .
Whiskey set me on my feet and took my left hand. He slid the band down my ring finger. I stared at it, then back at him .
Ring
Whiskey
Ring
Whiskey
Ring
It felt so odd there. New, but like my finger had been waiting for it all along. So good. So right .
“I got a wife you guys !”
Everyone laughed and cheered. Even Callaway, the ultimate confirmed bachelor .
Whiskey pulled me against him again and cupped my face .
“You are going to be my wife .”
“ I am .”
“I am going to be your husband .”
“ You are .”
I squealed as he picked me up and deposited me in the truck. He ran around the side and climbed into the driver’s seat. I saw Donnie pull out in Whiskey’s car with Sally. I spied Eliza in her car seat and instantly relaxed. Dev’s car followed right after with Kaylie and Janet .
My life was amazing. I felt like my heart would literally overflow. Our friends were going to spend the day helping us unpack and celebrate. Everything was perfect. Whiskey kissed me again and helped me fasten my seatbelt .
“You really picked out the ring last year ?”
He looked at me and smiled as he turned the ignition .
“I really did .”
“I won’t run away again .”
“I know you won’t .”
“Good .”
I leaned back in my seat .
“So how long do you think it will be until we are alone? One hour ? Two ?”
He groaned and shook his head .
“Probably longer .”
He wiggled his eyebrows at me .
“Want to swing by the no tell motel? We could tell them we got a flat .”
I bit my lip .
“Tempting, but I think we should skip it. Rain check ?”
“You know it, dollface .”
It sunk in during the ten minute drive to the side of town where most of the bikers lived. I stared out of the window, lost in thought. I was moving in with Whiskey. I was going to be a wife .
His wife .
I’d never been happier .
Epilogue
Whiskey Beard
SIX MONTHS LATER
“I put a deposit down last week .”
“ You what ?”
Becky stared at me, bouncing Eliza on her hip. She was agitated, but you would never know it from the gentle and loving way she handled our baby .
“Well, I thought it would be nice to have the party at the same place we had our first date .”
She scowled at me .
“We snuck out together. I wouldn’t call it a date. A date is planned .”
I smiled at her, leaning down to nip her neck .
“Well, I knew who I was going home with way before I got there. There was planning involved. Weeks of planning. Months .”
“Stop changing the subject. You are doing it again .”
“ Doing what ?”
I breathed heavily against the tender skin just below her jaw. That was the spot that always made her melt. Not this time though. She sighed and wiggled away .
“Trying to distract me by being sweet! Meanwhile, you are secretly being all high-handed about planning our wedding !”
“You are so busy with school and Petunia. I just thought I would help out .”
“No, you thought I was dragging my heels and took it on yourself to speed things up !”
I grinned at her .
“Okay .”
“There is a lot to do !”
“ I know .”
I pulled her against me, cradling the baby between us. I could feel the firm roundness of her belly. She wasn’t as soft as usual. It made me swell up with pride .
My Becky had a bun in the oven. And this time I’d be there every
step of the way to watch it bake .
“I just thought you might want to do it before you start showing .”
“Before I what ?!?”
She stared at me, outraged. I raised my eyebrows. Finally she threw her hands up, giving me a pissy look .
“How did you know ?”
“Sweetheart, I pay extremely close attention to these curves of yours. I notice everything .”
I squeezed her rump as I said it and she giggled .
“That’s my girl. When were you planning on telling me ?”
“I don’t know. I was still coming to terms with it .”
“Uh huh. Not getting itchy feet are you ?”
She looked serious suddenly. I tried not to worry about her taking off, but I still did. I couldn’t help it .
“No, Whiskey .”
She kissed me .
“Never .”
I kissed her back .
“I think it’s time for Petunia’s nap .”
“She’s not fussing .”
“No. But I am. And I need love and affection. Unless you want me to have a temper tantrum ?”
We always joked about having a meltdown, because our baby never did. She was such a calm, happy baby that we thought we needed to pick up some of the slack .
My fiancé gave me a seductive look and that was it. I was hard and aching .
Instaboner. Just add Becky .
She crooked her finger at me as she went to put Eliza down. I followed her like an eager puppy .
“Well, we wouldn’t want that. Come on, big boy. I’ll put you down for your nap too .”
It hit me as my gorgeous soon-to-be wife bent over the crib to adjust the blankets. We both smiled as Eliza yawned and her eyelids fluttered shut .
I had my two girls, and another little bundle on the way .
Without a doubt I was the luckiest man alive .
