Brother's Canadian Cowboy Friend (A Man Who Knows What He Wants Book 107)
Page 9
“I don’t mean to interrupt it’s just that my wife just called and told me she’s pregnant too. We’ve been trying for two years and to hear those words…I can’t explain. It’s like my hearing is supersonic right now, the air smells fresher, the sun is brighter…everything great is somehow better.”
“I know the feeling exactly, brother.” Maverick extends his hand, holding me in just one. How in the world is this man so strong? I guess it’s just another reason why my love for him is equally as strong.
“Congratulations,” he nods to me and then leaves to go grab a mop bucket.
“Looks like we made a mess,” I say.
“And we’re going to make another one in the bedroom right now, in celebration of the other thing we made…life, our first child, the bond I’ve always wanted with you and now I will have it…we’ll have it.”
“Yes we will.” Maverick kisses me hard and then pulls back, just staring into my eyes.
“But why are we going to make a mess in the bedroom. I don’t get it?”
“I know how much you like maple syrup, but now it’s time to show you just how much I like it.”
“Come again?” I squint.
“I’m going to cover that creamy, olive skin of yours in it and lick off every last drop until the sun sets over that mountain ridge.”
“I thought we already rode off into the sunset a month ago.”
“Beautiful, that’s not a one time thing. When it comes to you I’m going to spoil you with so many sweet things you’ll think that maple syrup is made out of gasoline.”
“What?” I burst out laughing.
“I’m just saying if you think that’s sweet, you haven’t seen nuthin’ yet.”
“Well, are you gonna keep talking about it or do something about it?”
“Charge it to our room, but please respect the do not disturb sign,” Maverick says to the waiter who’s now back at our table.
He just smiles. “Yes, sir.”
“Mav,” I say, slapping him.
“I want to make sure the whole world knows you’re mine.”
“He probably saw the footage from the Stampede. The YouTube clip did go viral.”
“And you bring out the virility in me…every second of every day.”
He tosses me over his shoulder like a caveman, bypassing the elevator and heading straight for the stairs.
“Mav, we’re in the penthouse suite. You sure you don’t want to take the elevator.”
“The only thing I’m taking is every part of you.”
“Deal, but you don’t have to take it because it was always yours and I’m always going to give it to you…and that starts with my heart.”
“Mine,” he growls into my skin.
“Yours,” I say before slapping him on the backside. “Now hurry up. Your soon to be baby mama’s need is off the charts.”
Mav takes the steps two at a time and I burst out laughing, but secretly something inside me thinks this just might be twins.
I don’t know if it’s irony, I’m crazy, or what.
But I do know I’m crazy for him…always and forever.
EXTENDED EPILOGUE
Maverick
Ten years later
“He likes it when you brush him like this,” I say, showing my twins Butch and Buffalo how to stroke their horse, Sparky.
I tried to tell them Sparky was a name for a dog, not a horse, but they insisted. And not only that they replied that Buffalo and Butch are names for bank robbers and hippies, and I didn’t much have a comeback for that.
I guess living in Nelson has turned me into a bit of a hippie. Our family is outside constantly. Doesn’t matter if it’s well below freezing or one of those rare instances where you can boil an egg on the street.
If it involves nature, we’re doing it.
It if involves animal welfare, we’re standing up for it and protecting it.
And if it involves family, we’re in it one hundred percent, always and forever.
Harmony steps into the barn in her flowing summer dress. My cock hardens immediately at the sight of her, as it always does. Doesn’t matter if it was that first day I saw her, the first moment of any morning, or the last moment of any night. The woman gets me. If I look at her too long I can’t speak, I can’t think, I can’t anything…but her.
And by too long I mean anything more than a couple seconds. Those eyes are mesmerizing, at least to me they are.
“Dallas and Dakota wanted to come out and say hi before I put them down for a nap.”
Butch and Buffalo go running to their mother, taking their twin baby sisters from her arms. “Thank you, boys.”
I love it when my little men act like gentlemen, especially when it frees up their mama’s hands so she can wrap her arms around me while I do the same…which is exactly what happens.
The boys carefully bring their sisters to Sparky, putting them just to his side in a position where even if he gets spooked for some strange reason, their sisters will be safe. Damn, I’m so proud of my little guys, and my baby girls too.
“Did I ever tell you how much I love you?”
“I feel like every minute of every day,” Harmony says.
“Only once a minute? I’m sorry, baby. I didn’t know I was slacking.”
“You better try to do better, Mavy,” she teases, tapping me on the nose.
“I love you. I love you. I love you.”
“You know what I love?” she asks.
“Us,” we say simultaneously before immediately laughing together. She buries her head in my chest and my hands find her hips, moving her slightly so our children don’t see my very noticeable need for her.
“Oh. Hey there!” she jokes, pushing her hips forward to acknowledge my throbbing desire for her.
“Anybody ever have three sets of twins in the history of mankind?” I ask.
“I wouldn’t know because I only pay attention to one man in this world…mine.”
“Yours.”
I pull her in tight and kiss her even harder.
“Always and forever,” I whisper into her ear.
“Yes,” she whimpers.
“Because that’s exactly how long I’ll love you. Always.”
She spins in my arms, placing her back against my chest as we watch our four children take turns running a comb over their beautiful horse.
My wife in my arms. My kids and one of our horses in sight.
Could life get any better?
Nah…not a chance.
I feel like a bank robber from the Wild West, but the difference is this cowboy got all the treasures in one…and lived to tell about it, and do I ever love to brag about what’s mine.
Them. My family. My loves. My everything.
