Claiming Her Heart
Page 11
“What were you thinking about?” She sighed into her pillow, certain she couldn’t feel happier than she did right now, freshly bedded by the man she loved and snuggled in with her two favorite people in the world.
“I was thinking about maybe…making a brother or sister someday. I mean, not too soon, but—”
“As soon as you’re ready,” Erin said, breaking her vow not to get teary again. “I can’t think of anything more exciting.”
“Not even investing in a spanking bench of our very own?” Blake smiled, but even in the dim light she could see the telltale shine in his eyes.
“Not even a spanking bench of my very own. Though I want one of those, too.” She smiled. “I can balance babies and spankings. Don’t you think?”
“I think you can do anything you set your mind to.” Blake reached out to touch her face, careful not to disturb Abby, who was already asleep again. “I love you, Erin.”
“I love you, too.”
He was out a few minutes later, his deep, steady breathing lulling her into a state of profound relaxation.
Still, she fought sleep as long she was able, wanting to savor these moments, the beginning of her life with the man who had forever claimed her heart.

Lili Valente has slept under the stars in Greece, eaten dinner at midnight with French men who couldn’t be trusted to keep their mouths on their food, and walked alone through Munich’s red light district after dark and lived to tell the tale.
These days you can find her writing in a tent beside the sea, drinking coconut water and thinking delightfully dirty thoughts.
