His Only Obsession (Protectors #27)

  Gwen slid downward slowly and seductively, then straddled Will, who was as naked as the day he was born. He reached up and unhooked the front snap of her bra, freeing her breasts.

  After nuzzling each breast, he asked, “Is it my imagination or are these beauties getting bigger?”

  She squirmed against his erection, eliciting a pleading groan from him.

  “They may be just a tad bigger. I believe it’s quite normal for a woman’s breasts to enlarge throughout her pregnancy.”

  Will grabbed her hips to stop her from moving against him. “What did you say?”

  “It’s a good thing you made an honest woman out of me today,” she told him. “I took a home pregnancy test this morning and I’m definitely pregnant. If my calculations are correct—”

  Will let out a loud whoop, then wrapped his arms around Gwen, effectively trapping her against him as he took her mouth in a hot, hungry kiss. When they were both breathless, they broke apart and grinned at each other.

  “It happened six weeks ago,” he said proudly. “The night of our engagement party. Right?”

  “Mmm-hmm. That would be my guess.”

  “You’re happy about the baby, aren’t you?” He caressed her shoulders.

  “If I were any happier, I’m not sure I could stand it.” She wrapped her arms around his neck. “What about you? Do you want to be a daddy?”

  “You bet I do. I want a little girl who looks just like you, brown eyes.”

  “Well, I want a little boy who looks just like you.”

  Six months later, they both got their wishes, only in reverse order. Willard Hunter Pierce III, with his mother’s brown eyes and dark hair, came howling into the world five minutes before his twin sister, Gwendolyn Jean Pierce, who was her daddy’s spitting image.
