I grip Reece’s hand all the way to the hospital and can hardly stand by the time he’s helping me from his truck. He looks worried as he steadies me. “I’m okay,” I add for his benefit because inside I’m falling apart.
Reece stays silent and keeps an arm around my waist as he leads me into the hospital. Unfortunately for me the first people I see are Evan’s parents. His father breaks away from his wife and storms in our direction. Reece gets in front of me, causing Bruce to come up short. “Stay away from my sister,” Reece snarls.
“Is there a problem here?” A man in uniform with a badge saying security stands just to the side of Bruce and Reece.
Bruce pipes up. “Yes, there is a problem. These people are not family and my son can only have family visiting him.”
I gasp and drop my forehead to Reece’s back and grab for his T-shirt, clinging to him.
“That’s not true,” a loud voice booms from behind me. “Jessie Kincaid here, is Evan’s fiancée, and this is her brother, Reece.” Captain Foster pauses. “I can assure you that the only person Evan will want to see when he wakes up is Jessie. Evan insisted on filling out paperwork to make sure that Jessie Kincaid is his official next of kin. He wanted to make sure she was covered if anything happened to him. I have a copy with me, which I will be giving to his Doctor.” He glances at Bruce before turning to me. “Let’s go and find out what’s happening.”
Reece snickers at Bruce and I have a feeling my brother is about to get himself into trouble, so I grab his hand and tug him after me. One glance from me is all it takes and he follows.
Reece thanks Foster and they do small talk in the elevator, which I switch off from. I just want to see Evan. Be able to touch his hand. Caress his face and tell him how much I love him.
Once we reach the floor that Captain Foster takes us to, a Doctor watches us approach and after having a few words with the nurses he comes over to us.
“Captain.” He offers his hand.
“You must be Jessica,” the doctor smiles. “I’m Thomas Redgrave, Evan’s doctor.” Let’s go into this room. He opens the door and ushers us inside. “Firstly, Evan is currently in intensive care so that he has round the clock care for now. I had to remove a kidney, but he still has one. Providing all goes well in the next twenty-four hours, then I don’t see why he won’t make a full recovery.”
No sooner has the doctor finished talking than I burst into tears. I’m overwhelmed with relief, but also fear that he could take a turn for the worse.
“We have a very good medical team in the ICU, and all being well, he’ll be moved to a regular floor later tomorrow.” He smiles and rests a hand on my shoulder. “He’s a fighter.”
“Can I see him?”
“Yes, but only one at a time.”
“It’s okay. It’s Jessie he’ll want there.” Reece pulls me into his embrace. “I’m going to be here okay? No matter how long you stay with him. I’ll be here for you.”
“I love you, Reece.” I reach up and kiss his cheek before I follow the doctor to Evan’s room.
I have to be positive, which isn’t easy as my eyes gaze over him. He has wires and monitors attached and he looks so poorly that my eyes fill with tears. The doctor indicates for me to take the chair beside his bed.
“This is out of the way of the hospital staff.” He smiles softly. “I know it’s scary seeing someone you love like this for the first time.”
I nod, slowly sinking into the chair. “Is he really going to be okay?”
“I’ll probably get fired if this gets back to my boss, but yes, I believe he will make a full recover. I don’t say that lightly. Before the injury he was a healthy young man with two fully working kidney’s. Now he has one fully working kidney. I spent time checking inside to make sure there wasn’t any visible bleeding before we stitched him up. I’m happy with his recovery so far.”
Inhaling, I slowly exhale to try and settle myself. “Thank you,” I whisper. “For everything.” I can’t take my eyes from Evan. “I need to stay with him.”
“I’m sure that can be arranged. I’ll give you time with him before it’s time for his meds and vital check.”
Once the doctor leaves I’m alone in the room with him and I don’t have a clue what to say. It’s a first. With Evan I can usually think of something to arouse him, and now even those words are gone.
Sitting forward, I slip my hand around his and rest my head beside our hands on the bed. “I love you, Evan,” I whisper. “So very much. Please don’t leave me. I need you.”
* * *
I’ve hardly moved in the few hours I’ve been here. I’m afraid that if I do something will happen to Evan. Either that or he’ll wake up and I won’t be here for him. I think I’ve slept because it’s since turned dark outside. I kiss Evan’s hand that I’ve been resting beside and lift my head, wincing at the pain shooting up my back from being in this position for so long. I have to blink a few times when I see Evan with his eyes open watching me.
“Beautiful,” he whispers.
I of course burst into tears. My relief overwhelms me and I sit crying while Evan looks on helplessly. “I’m okay.” Reaching in my purse for a wad of tissues, I mop myself up and hiccup a few times while I try to breathe and forget how worried I’ve been.
“I’m sorry.” I smile, stroking his hand. “It was a relief to find you awake, and to hear your voice.”
“I’ve been lying here watching you sleep. I thought I was dreaming when I first woke up and saw you here.” He swallows hard and raw emotion clouds his eyes. “I honestly never thought I’d see you again when I realized what had happened. I couldn’t breathe—”
“Don’t Evan.” I stand and desperately want to crawl on the bed, but I’m too afraid of hurting him. “You are here with me and I’m not letting you out of my sight ever again! Never!” I whisper, fighting tears yet again. “I’ve never been so scared in my life. Please don’t do anything like that again?”
“You mean tell a deranged woman what I actually think of her?”
I offer him a slight chuckle. “Yeah, that.”
“Come here.” He pats the bed beside him. “I want you closer.”
I shake my head. “I can’t. I’ll hurt you.”
“It’s the other side that hurts like a SOB.” He tugs gently on my fingers. “Please get up here Jessie. I need to have you in my arms for a short while. You’ll make me feel better.”
I slip my feet from my pumps and carefully get myself situated alongside him. An arm goes around my shoulders and he presses my face into his chest. “Stay just like that,” he whispers.
“I love you,” I say. “So very much.”
“I love you too, and the moment I’m out of this hospital we are getting married.”
“Okay.”
He chuckles and groans. “Remind me not to laugh. That fucking hurt.”
“Don’t laugh then.”
“I propose and you reply ‘okay’.”
My smile lights up my eyes this time as I raise my head to look at him. “I didn’t realize that was a proposal, I thought it was a demand so I just agreed.”
“God!” He closes his eyes and when he opens them they reach somewhere deep inside of me. “I love you Jessica Kincaid, and you will make me the happiest man alive, if you’ll agree to marry me the moment I leave the hospital.”
Leaning closer, I whisper against his lips, “I’d love to be your wife. I love you.” I press my lips to his and sigh, resting back against his chest.
My world is perfect.
Prologue
Nine months later
Evan
My beautiful wife is sprawled out on the top of our bed ready for me. The sight of her turns me on every time. My God she only has to smile and I’m fighting an erection from hell. Now though, as her body grows with our child, I find her unbelievably sexy. Her eight and a half month pregnant belly is large and round and the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen, and I can’t even describe what pre
gnancy has done for her breasts.
“Are you going to stand there all morning stroking yourself, or are you going to put out the fire in my body?” Jessie pushes her breasts together and I find I have to pinch my dick to prevent me releasing all over my hand.
Her pebbled nipples are dark with pregnancy and so very big and round, they jiggle with every movement of her body and I can’t think straight. Her legs widen and her hips arch upwards, begging me to touch.
“Evan,” Jessie moans.
Groaning, I kneel between her spread legs and holding my cock, I rub the crown through her slick and swollen pussy. She’s always so ready for me. Forcing myself to move away, I let my dick press against the large swell of her belly and lean in to capture a nipple with my mouth. My fingers pinch and roll the other while I enjoy the release of milk that is already forming in her breasts to nourish our child.
“You have no idea how wild this makes me,” I admit, lost in desire. “I could come now, all over your belly with how worked up your body gets me.” My hips pump against her belly, my cock so hard I see stars.
“Me too,” she gasps, moaning and throwing her head from side to side. “I need you.”
Sitting back on my heels, I bring her legs over my thighs. I grab my leaking dick and place it at her entrance, just breaching the tight opening. Our eyes lock together and I thrust inside, her pussy grabbing onto every inch of my cock, tugging and pulsing with her orgasm. I can’t stop grinding my groin against hers, the head of my cock exploding with semen right against her womb.
Her belly goes tight with every pulse of her release and the sight keeps me hard and aching for more. The need to touch her everywhere overcomes me and I quickly slide out and gently help her onto her hands and knees in the middle of the bed.
“Oh God, I’m not going to survive this.”
I hiss in reply as I already have my cock buried inside her warm pussy. “You say that every time.”
“Because it’s true.”
I surround her with my body and reach under her to grab a breast in each of my hands. They’re so damn sensitive, more so since she’s been pregnant. “You love what I do to your body.”
“God yes,” she cries when I pinch both her nipples before tugging on the hard beads. I slowly slide out to the tip of my cock and before I can shove back inside, she thrusts her ass, impaling herself on me. “Don’t stop,” she begs, more cries and whimpers leaving her body.
“I can’t even if I wanted to,” I admit, my balls so fucking tight I’m about to explode.
Jessie grinds down on me stimulating her clit, and then it happens. Her vaginal muscles convulse around me so tightly that I can’t move. I’m stuck in her pussy as her release soaks my cock. It’s so fucking erotic that I don’t have a hope in hell of lasting.
“I can’t stop coming,” Jessie pants, burying her face into the pillow beneath her.
“I can feel,” I roar, coming hard. I grip her breasts in my hands and release every bit of seed in my balls. My face drops to the curve of her shoulder and I slightly bite down, spilling more semen.
Very slowly, I slide my hands lower and caress her belly. My hands caress and stroke, until they wander upwards, back toward her gorgeous tits, and then back over her tummy to her pussy. She moans when my fingers play and her inner muscle pulsate on my rapidly growing erection.
“I’m not sure I can stay like this for much longer,” she admits.
The moment she utters those words, I slide out and help her get comfortable on her back before I slide back inside. “I love being inside of you.”
“I hadn’t noticed,” she replies, being cheeky. “I love having your penis sliding in me. It feels amazing. Big. Hard. And the feeling of you coming inside of me is amazing and always prolongs my pleasure.”
I’m still on her words—sliding, big, hard, coming—when she raises her arms above her head and stretches, holding in that position.
I grasp her hips. “Fuck! Oh God! Fuck, Jessie.” I plunge hard and grunt, coming again. Panting hard, I drop my face to her belly. “How the fuck is there anything left inside of me to give you?”
She chuckles and tugs me up toward her face. I kiss her waiting lips and then get worried when she gives me a mischievous smile. “I’ve read that a man’s semen can set his woman off in to labor.”
“What?” I exclaim in shock.
Giggling, Jessie says, “I’m nearing my due date, so having plenty of sex could help my labor start. I don’t think we’ll have a problem making that happen, do you?”
I nearly fall off the fucking bed.
Jessie – 2 days later
* * *
Evan won’t be letting me forget anytime soon that I gave birth to a healthy baby girl, Amelia Brittany Sutton, two days after I informed him that lots of sex and orgasms could set my labor off. The information I gave him certainly didn’t stop him from wanting me, from touching me. We both have agreed that he has some pretty powerful swimmers.
I don’t think I could love anyone in the way that I love Evan, and now our beautiful daughter. She has her daddy’s lips and eyes, and apparently, my nose. I don’t think I actually got a look in with her. So far she is a good baby and has her daddy wrapped around her little finger.
Evan sits in the chair over by the corner of the room with Amelia snuggled against his chest. His eyes are constantly caressing over her, as though he can’t believe she’s really his. I’ve snapped so many pictures with my phone over the past day or so, of them just like this, and it makes my heart all warm and fussy.
My stare must disturb Evan because he lifts his gaze and finds mine. His eyes shine with tears, but I know they’re tears of happiness. We both have each other and now our daughter. Evan’s told me that I need to get used to the idea of only having one child after the pain he witnessed me in during childbirth. Give it twelve months and I’ll be pregnant again. There is nothing like witnessing the total awe on the face of the man you love when he holds his child for the first time. It brought tears to my eyes.
Moving slowly as to not wake Amelia, Evan settles on the bed and wraps an arm around me, pulling me into his arms. He kisses the top of my head. “Thank you, Jess. Since the day I met you, I’ve looked forward to my future.” His voice is rough with emotion. “I love how we have a small piece of Brittany in Amelia.” His voice catches and he takes a shuddering breath.
“Brittany will always be with you, Evan. Always. I’d like to think that if she’d lived, she would have changed and been an awesome sister-in-law, and a great Auntie to Amelia.” I turn my head and kiss his chest. “She knew you loved her.”
“Oh boy.” He’s quiet for a few moments. “She knew. I know she loved me too. It helped that I got that time with her, even though it crushed me for years afterwards…until you came along and made me smile again.”
Sighing softly, I enjoy the feel of my husband and daughter breathing quietly, so thankful for everything that I have.
