Gray must've been thinking the exact same thing because he was quickly removing my panties and his mouth was on my most sensitive spot within seconds. My body bucked at the overwhelming pleasure that racked through my body. Just when I thought I couldn't take anymore, I came with more force than I had ever felt before. Gray stilled as I rode out the wave of pleasure that had been built up inside of me for weeks. When my body relaxed, Gray came up and lay beside me. If he thought this was over, he was in for a big surprise.
I sat up next to him, pushing him back against the mattress. My lips moved slowly and deliberately over every sensitive part of his flesh, before I made my way to the front of his pants. I quickly unzipped and pulled his pants down away from his skin, leaving his excitement for me exposed. I would never get enough of this man. I licked my lips before my mouth made contact with his rock hard cock. I sucked him into my mouth and his intake of breath was the only noise to be heard. I took my time pleasuring my husband, making sure he felt my desire for him with every stroke. His hands grasped at my hair, making my mouth slide faster up and down his length. I could feel him getting closer and with one last stroke, he let go.
I climbed up the length of his body, tucking myself into the crook of his arm. His fingers slid up and down my skin in a soothing motion and before I knew it, I was asleep. My dream that night was one of pure elation. We were happy. Our kids were happy and not once did a bad thought cross my mind. My mind was finally at a peaceful place and I couldn't wait for what our future would bring. All I knew was that for the first time in my life, I felt safe and loved unconditionally in the arms of the one man that had always been there for me.
Epilogue
1 year later
I was finishing up making the rest of the sandwiches and lemonade when I heard Charlie's giggle echo from outside. I could see her curls bouncing around as she ran in and out of the tree house, her little brother crawling on the ground below. Theo, Gray and Ryan were all standing in front of the tree house, beers in hand, talking and laughing as they watched over our kids.
The last year had been one of the best. Hannah and Theo married shortly after getting engaged. She didn't want to wait until after the baby was born and who could blame her. After she had accepted that she was going to be a mother and a wife, she wanted to do it all at once. She had embraced motherhood just like I knew she would.
Riley Anne was born four months after and she was just as beautiful as her mother. With dark hair and porcelain skin, she was almost an exact replica, at least in my eyes. The minute that little girl was born, Theo had the same look as Gray when Charlie was born. That little girl had him instantly wrapped around her little finger, and he loved every second of it. Theo was amazing with Riley, and with Hannah. The two people, who didn't want to be parents, ended up being the most loving and nurturing parents I had ever met. Fatherhood suited him and I was pretty sure they were busy working on baby number two.
Ryan and Sarah were still engaged, but had yet to marry. Although we all think they secretly wed when they went to Hawaii a few months back. Those two were a welcome addition to our little circle of friends, and they were going to make great parents, someday.
I walked out onto the back porch and set the food and drinks on the table. Hannah and Sarah were in a deep conversation about something or another, but I didn't want to jump in, so I sat back and took in the sight of my husband tending to our kids. There wasn't a day that went by that I didn't tell Gray how much I loved him, or how much I appreciated him. Throughout all of the good and the bad since the day I met him, he was the one man who stayed by my side. He never judged me or made me feel ashamed of what had happened with Raylon and for that I would forever be thankful.
He turned and caught me staring and my cheeks flushed with desire. With just one look that man could have my insides turned upside down, and I loved it. He smiled a knowing smile and I happily returned his look of contentment. I pointed in the direction of the house, wanting to steal a few seconds with him, but he simply laughed and shook his head. Oh he was going to get it later that was for sure.
I stood and made my way over to Gray, who was waiting with open arms. I wrapped my arms around his waist and took in all the happiness around us. I felt him kiss the top of my head before continuing his conversation with Ryan and Theo. I could feel the tears welling up behind my eyes as I watched my kids playing without a care in the world. If they only knew what we had been through to get to this point. That was the best thing about kids, they were oblivious to the bad things around them and saw nothing but the good. There used to be days when I wish I could've been a child again, just to feel that type of joy.
"Would you change anything?" Gray's voice broke through my revelry and I smiled up at him.
"Never. You?"
"Not in a million years."
His hands cupped my face as his lips melted into mine. My eyes fluttered shut, leaving nothing but him and me in that moment. When he pulled back, he tucked me underneath his arms, and held me there. There really was nothing I would change. I was who I was because of the people I had met and the things we had been through. I went from a broken girl to a neatly mended mother and wife. I was whole again, but in a new way. And if anything ever tried to break me again, I had my husband and kids to stand by my side and give me the strength I would need to get through it. I looked up at the clear blue sky knowing that our parents were looking down on us, and I knew they would be proud. Although I missed them dearly, they were always here guiding us along the way. I could feel it, and I knew at that moment Gray could as well.
He gave me a gentle squeeze and leaned down near my ear, "I miss them too."
A small tear escaped, but I quickly swiped it away with my finger before anyone would notice. "I love you, Gray."
"I love you too, Button."
"Thank you for fixing me." I whispered.
"I didn't fix you, Bennett. I just made your heart unbreakable."
"That you did."
