His words seemed to appease her because she didn’t stop him when he pushed her thighs open to expose her sex. She was wet and pink and he couldn’t stop from dipping a finger into her.
She moaned and rocked her hips, lifting her ass off the bed looking for deeper penetration.
“Do you want me?”
Her bright golden eyes pinned him to the spot. “Yes. I want you inside me.”
She cupped her own breasts and pulled at her nipples. Soft moans came from her every time she did.
“Tell me what you want, beautiful,” he growled.
“Your tongue. My clit. Right now,” she said without hesitation.
He lowered his head and inhaled hard. Her scent was his undoing. She was hot and sweet and he could live with his face buried in her pussy.
He licked the inside of her thigh and she trembled. He curled his arms around her legs and pushed them open farther. The view was prettier than any other he’d ever seen. “You’re so fucking pink and soft.”
He flattened his tongue on her center and slid it up to her clit.
“Oh, god!”
Honey seeped from her channel. He drank her in, her taste, her scent. Thrusting his tongue into her sex, he drove in and out of her, pressing his nose to her clit and flicking his tongue faster and faster.
Her moans and soft cries made his cock hurt from how badly he wanted in her. His control on his animal almost snapped. He lengthened his tongue and fucked her deeper and harder.
“Good god, Thane! What the fuck are you doing?” Then she moaned and gasped. “Don’t you dare fucking stop or I’ll kill you myself.”
He chuckled, or tried to as he continued to thicken his tongue and thrust deeper and harder into her sex. He pressed harder at her clit with his nose, still driving into her with his tongue. The more she cried and moaned, the slicker she got, until she was screaming his name as her pussy contracted around his tongue.
He pulled back, happy that he’d gotten her to come and licking at the honey gliding from her.
When he got up, she smiled at him, her eyes blazing gold, and tugged him to her. “My turn to taste.”
He shook his head. “Sweetheart, this was for you.”
She giggled and licked her lips. “This is for me, too. Now get over here.”
Chapter 17
Lily watched Thane stand next to her side of the bed. Men as good looking as Thane didn’t usually pay attention to a big girl like her, but there was no doubt that he wanted her. Even pregnant. His erection stood proud, pointing up. His skin felt hot and smooth, velvety. Curling her hand around his cock, she brought her lips to the head of his shaft and took him into her mouth.
He filled her mouth, making it hard for her to do anything but suck and pull back. He groaned. The sound made her slick and ready for him. Not that she wasn’t already. She gripped his ass cheeks and sucked on his cock. His fingers slid into her hair and he gripped the long strands, pushing and pulling her head with his thrusts into her mouth.
“Ah, fuck!”
She smiled internally. The growl at that moment gave away he was losing control and she loved it. Her tigress wanted more. To make him lose it completely. Hollowing her cheeks, she sucked harder. Every glide back and forth brought out more groans and grunts from him.
His hold on her hair tightened. His thrusts into her mouth turned harder and faster. Saliva dribbled down her chin. His slick cock continued to plunge into her mouth, gliding down her throat and then back out.
“Christ, Lily! I can’t. Your lips are so tight and wet. I’m gonna come, baby.”
She wanted him to. Wanted to see his body lose that last semblance of control. She dug her nails harder into his ass, her fingers clawing and leaving scratches on his cheeks.
“Ah, fuck. Don’t take me deeper.” He tensed, his cock hard and pulsing in her mouth. He reared back and she glanced up, still sucking at the head of his cock. His eyes were pure fire. He jerked himself and semen splashed into her mouth. On a pull back, he squirted his cum over her face on her breasts. “Is this what you wanted?”
She licked the cum on her lips. “What?”
“For me to come all over you?” He growled and lifted her off the bed, taking her in his arms and pressing their lips together. “I fucking love smelling myself on you.”
“Do you?”
“Fuck, yes!” He stroked his hands over her breasts, massaging his semen into her skin. “Not for one second have you been out of my mind. My scent in your body. On your skin. My cock inside you.”
He turned her around, her back to his chest, and sat on the edge of the bed, his legs wide open. He lowered her slowly. With her legs inside his, she sat on his dick. He entered her in a single slide down.
“Oh, my,” she moaned.
He curled an arm around her torso, cupping one of her full breasts and immediately tweaking at her nipple. A loud moan rode up her throat. He slid his other hand between her legs, pressing at her clit.
Soft kisses rained over the back of her neck. He licked and nibbled her shoulder. She rocked back and forth on his cock, every movement sending her over-sensitized body into hyper drive.
It only took a few moments for her muscles to tense and her blood to thicken in her veins. The sound of her moans and his groans filled the room along with the squeaking of the bed. He pulled and pinched on her nipple.
The tight little bud ached from the sensitivity. Her breasts hurt from how swollen they were. Every time he squeezed one, her pussy fluttered around his cock.
“Lily, love. I want your sweet cream on my dick.”
She bit her lips and pressed her head on his chest. Her back arched and her rocking increased in speed. She wiggled and pushed down to get him in as deeply as possible. Then she’d do it again. And again. Until she was panting from how close she was to coming.
His finger on her clit thrummed harder. He sucked and bit on the back of her shoulder. The bite alone sent her over the edge. She screamed his name, pushing her pussy down to take him deeper.
“Fuck, baby. Yes! Your pussy’s so hot. So wet. Sucking my dick.” He bit down harder on her shoulder as the heat of his seed filled her channel and once again drove her through another climax. She was the one to lose control then. Her tigress rose to the surface. She clawed at his legs, leaving long bloodied scratches on him.
“Thane,” she gasped, trying to catch her breath.
“Hmm,” he grunted.
She grinned. “If we’re going to do this again, and knowing you, we will, I need food.”
He chuckled and helped her onto the bed. He kissed her lips, sucked her breast into his mouth, and for a second, made her forget all about food. Then he placed a lingering kiss on her belly and stood. “I’ll get my girls food. Don’t want you starving.”
Chapter 18
Lily watched his gorgeous naked body leave the room. Lord have mercy. What had she gotten into? This man was beyond all her life dreams when it came to sex. Every time he looked at her with his gorgeous blue eyes, that beard that made her want to shove his face in her crotch and his mussed up hair falling over his brow, she wanted to beg him to fuck her again.
How could she possibly think clearly about their future when she’d happily spend the rest of her life with him fucking her senseless?
Her baby kicked at that moment. She had to give it a chance though. At least give him a chance to prove to her he could do what was needed as a father. The fact he’d asked her to give him a chance to show her he cared about her was more than she expected from him.
There was no more time to think about things. Once he returned from the kitchen with another plate of soup and rolls, she was too busy eating to worry about anything else.

Thane woke to something bumping his hand. He opened his eyes and glanced down. He was spooning Lily and his hand was on her belly, where his daughter was playing soccer. He was surprised the hard thumps hadn’t woken his mate.
He rubbed Lily’s belly and bo
nded with his daughter as he moved his hand and her little kicks followed. His heart filled with love for her and Lily. He realized now how perfect she was for him. His dragon had tried to tell him, but he’d ignored him. Idiot.
He needed to do something to show her how special she was to him. An idea formed in his mind. He pushed the long curls away from her face and buried his face in her hair. The sweet scent of apples filled his lungs. He’d been dreaming of apples since their time at his cabin.
She snuggled farther into the blankets and sighed. He wished he could do more to help. Her body was growing his baby and all he could do was get her food and make sure she rested. It didn’t seem enough to him.
Their night of lovemaking had tired her out. She’d mentioned something when she was falling asleep the previous night. The conversation rushed to the front of his mind.
“I didn’t think you’d find me attractive,” she whispered into the darkened room.
“Why would you think that? You’re beautiful,” he said and cuddled her closer into his side, her head on his chest.
“I’m so big. I was already big before, but now I’m huge,” she said softly.
He turned his face and cupped her chin, forcing her to glance up at him. Their kind could see just as well in the dark as in the light. He stared deeply into her eyes. “You’re gorgeous. I’ve thought that since the first moment I saw you.”
She pressed a kiss to his beard. “I know, but how attractive can having a huge belly be?”
He brought her hand to his lips and then placed it on her breast. “Your breasts are bigger. They’re sensitive and make me fucking hard.” He moved her hand down to her pussy. “You’re still just as hot and tight down there. And you like having me inside you. That’s more than I could ask for.”
He then placed his own hand on her belly. “But this, you carrying my baby. The knowledge that I made you this way makes me so fucking hard, I hurt.” He kissed her and slid her hand to his hard cock. “I want you now. I will always want you. No matter how big you get or how old you get. No matter the changes in your body or physical appearance. You’re always going to make me want to fuck you into next week.”
“Really?” she asked with surprise.
“Yes. And the more I see you like this, pregnant and big with a little bit of me inside you, the more I want to keep you like this,” he growled. “I’ve never wanted to make a woman mine like I do you. I’ve never wanted to see her body grow and know the life she carries is because of me.”
She grinned. “There’s some Neanderthal in you after all.”
“A lot more than you realize, sweetheart. I come from a time where getting your woman pregnant was an accomplishment and I fully believe that. You, pregnant, are the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen.” He groaned when she stroked his cock. “And I want to keep seeing you this way, full and big with my child. It makes me horny as fuck.”
She laughed at that. “Who would have thought you got off on pregnant women.”
“Not pregnant women. My woman pregnant. There’s a difference,” he said.
Fuck, thinking of that made his dick hard all over again. He wouldn’t wake her though. She needed her rest. He slid out of the sheets and let her sleep. He had an idea and would need help to make sure he got things right for her.
Her happiness was his number one priority now. He’d find out about her ex and pay him a visit, too. But first, he needed to pamper his mate. Growing a baby was taking a toll on her and he wanted her rested.
Chapter 19
Lily woke to the scent of fresh coffee and grinned. She’d had the most amazing night with Thane. While she was still unsure how they were going to work a relationship or even if he only wanted to do it because she was having his baby, the truth was she couldn’t help the way her heart filled with love for him.
Not only had he made love to her repeatedly, but he’d said such beautiful things about her body to her. How much she turned him on with her pregnancy surprised even her.
She glanced to the side but knew he wasn’t there. A quick peek at the cable box made her gasp. Holy crap it was almost late morning. She never slept that long. Hell, she was lucky if she got two hours in before she had to get up to pee.
They’d been up pretty late, but even with that, she got a solid six hours of sleep and that in itself was a miracle. She yawned and got up to take a shower. After putting on the most comfortable clothes she could find, she made her way to the kitchen.
“There you are, finally,” Thane said and pressed a hot cup of coffee into her hands.
She glanced down at it and took a sip. “How do you know how I like my coffee?”
He winked and her heart did a summersault. “I have connections.”
She wondered which of her cousins had spilled the beans as she drank her first cup.
“I made a full pot so you can have more.”
She raised her brows. “You’re not going to tell me caffeine is bad for me? Stephanie tries every day.”
He laughed. “You’re a shifter. Things are different for you.”
“Thank you! Finally, another person who understands I’m not human and can have my damn coffee when I want it.”
He chuckled. “What do you think I have, a death wish?”
She shook her head and refilled her cup. “Smart man.”
He glanced down at her feet and frowned. “You’re going to need shoes, love.”
“Yeah, I know,” she groaned. “I hate shoes.”
“Why?”
“Putting socks on is a pain in the ass. I couldn’t find my boots and if I get down to search under my bed, I’ll probably never get back up again,” she said with a sigh.
“I’ll find your boots.”
Her eyes widened. “Really?”
He nodded. “Yeah. Just tell me what they look like.”
“They’re black and have fur inside. Nothing special but they’re warm enough I don’t need to put socks on when I wear them,” she said and sat at the kitchen table to drink her next cup of coffee.
He left for a few minutes and returned moments later with her boots in hand.
“You’re my hero,” she grinned. “Where were they?”
“Under your bed.” He laughed and put them on her feet. For once, she didn’t have to struggle to slip on the shoes or almost break her leg to turn it so she could pull them on without getting her belly in the way.
She sighed in happiness and glanced down at her empty cup. “I guess I should figure out what I’m doing today, huh?”
He shook his head and offered her his hand. “Nope. Today, you and I are doing stuff.”
She smiled at the secretive way he said that. “Oh? And what are we doing?”
“You’ll see. It’s a surprise. First, we’re going somewhere and then I have a different surprise for you.”
She laughed. “It’s not my birthday, you know.”
“I know. Your birthday is January first. Don’t worry, love. I have that marked as well.”
The smile turned into a frown. Why was he doing all this? She’d already said she’d think about things. He didn’t have to go out of his way for her.
They drove to a very chic hotel she knew very well as it was one of the nicest ones in the city. He took her up to the twentieth floor to a separate reception area.
“Hello, can I help you?”
He smiled at the woman. “Thane Dreki, I set up an appointment for Lily today.”
The other woman perked up and smiled. “Of course! Mr. Dreki. So nice to finally meet you. We will take great care of your wife. Don’t worry about anything.”
Lily raised her brows and glanced at him. “Thane?”
He gave her a quick kiss and turned her to face the person waiting for her. He hugged her from behind and whispered by her ear, “Don’t worry about anything. Just relax. I’ll be back to take you to lunch.”
Chapter 20
Lily watched him get back in the elevator and blow her a kiss as the doo
rs closed.
“Don’t worry about anything, Mrs. Dreki. You’re in great hands,” said the older woman that came out of nowhere in what looked like a pale blue uniform. She smiled warmly at Lily. “First, let’s feed you.”
She didn’t know what was going on, but food always sounded good. After an amazing breakfast, she was taken to a room where she was given the most amazing oxygen facial.
At first, she thought the spa employee was confused but was soon shown the machine they’d use to pump oxygen into her skin. She worried about side effects with being pregnant, so she quickly googled the procedure. Realizing there was nothing to be concerned with, she allowed them to work her face and was happy with the process and results. Her face felt like she’d washed it with a really good scrub.
Next, they took her for a full body pregnancy massage. She got to lay on a bed that had a hole in the center to accommodate her belly. Scented oils were not her first choice. As a shifter, scents were usually too strong for her, but they used something so light, it hadn’t bothered her, and she was able to relax. She swore she fell asleep on the massage table.
After that, they took her for a fire and ice manicure and pedicure. She had no idea there could be so much done during a simple mani and pedi. But as she saw, there was lots of massaging, hot towels wrapped around her legs, masks put on her hands and feet and cooling gels that made her skin feel super refreshed.
The spa time ended with her curls getting a trim and a nice wash and blow where they made her crazy curls looks fluffy and soft. They even helped her slide her feet into her fuzzy boots again.
When Thane showed to pick her up that afternoon, she felt like a new woman. Almost. Except for the huge baby she was carrying.
“Ready for lunch?”
She nodded excitedly. “I didn’t think it was possible to get hungry while someone else did all the work, but that’s exactly what happened.”
