Mom let out a soft cry. “Violet?!”

I nodded once. “I just found out.”

“How accurate is this?” Ben flipped the stick over and growled. “How accurate, Violet?”

I tried to grab the stick from him but he caught my arm and pulled me into his chest. I felt my body react instantly to being close to his again. “I peed on that, Ben. Drop it.”

“I don’t give two flying fucks if you peed on it, Vi. You could piss on me right now and I wouldn’t give a shit. We’re going to buy more of these things.” He shoved the test in his pocket and then picked me up. “Forrest stays with Grandma and Grandpa.”

Mom clapped her hands. “This is just so exciting!”

I grunted when Ben gripped my ass tight and marched towards his truck. “Wait! I didn’t agree to any of this.”

Mason let out a bark of laughter. “Oh, sweetheart, that ship has sailed. You were already ours but we were trying to be patient. This changes everything, though. You’re not getting rid of us.”

Forrest ran out the front door and cried when he saw me. “Mom!”

Without me having to ask, Ben put me down. I dropped to my knees and a second later, Forrest barreled into me, knocking me over. I hugged him tight and stroked his hair out of his face. “Oh, baby. Don’t cry. Mommy’s here. I love you, Forrest. I love you so much.”

“I’m sorry, Mommy. I was bad to you. I love you and you’re the best mom.” Giant tears rolled down his cheeks as he held me around my neck in a way that a week earlier, I would’ve thought he was trying to strangle me.

“We all make mistakes, Forrest. It’s okay. All that matters is that we apologize and move forward. You’ve gone through a lot of changes lately, baby. It makes sense you’re having a lot of big feelings. I am, too. We’re okay, though.” I rocked him back and forth and glanced up to see Mom watching me with tears streaming down her cheeks.

“Sometimes we’re not the nicest to the people we love. Your mom’s right, Forrest. We just have to say we’re sorry and do better.” Mom cupped my face and smiled. “I’m sorry. I’m glad you didn’t take after me. You’re a wonderful mother, Violet.”

CHAPTER 44

Violet

“Back again?” The cashier at CVS smirked at me when I walked in. “If you want my number—”

Ben’s growl cut off whatever else the guy was going to say. Like a pack of deadly wolves, the guys moved with me as I made my way to the pregnancy tests. They were practically circling me and if the store had been busier, I feel like they would’ve kicked people out.

Standing in front of the shelves full of tests, I repeated the same mental song and dance I had earlier. It was harder with the guys watching me. Their impatience radiated off of them in waves. They had gone into a weird state of focus since seeing the pregnancy test General dropped.

“Fuck it.” Mason just started grabbing one of each test. “I don’t want to rush you, Vi, but I’m dying here.”

“Mason! We don’t need all of them!” I started trying to take them from him and put them back, but then they were all clattering to the floor and Mason was crashing his mouth to mine.

He backed me into the other side of the aisle and I gasped when he cupped my ass and lifted me so I wrapped my legs around his waist. His mouth was just as focused as the rest of their actions and his tongue tangled with mine in purposeful strokes that made me think of what he wanted to do to me. When I moaned into the kiss, he pulled back and growled. “Someone buy those. I’m taking Violet to the truck.”

I buried my face in his shoulder as he carried me out. “I can walk, you know?”

“Don’t care.” He opened the back door of the truck and climbed in with me still in his arms. I straddled him and he cupped my breasts together and rubbed his face against them. He sucked my nipple through my shirt, leaving a wet spot when he moved to my other breast. “Tell me you’re coming home, Vi.”

I moaned as he slid his hand into my pants and underwear to cup my ass. His finger danced over my rosebud, teasing me with just enough pressure each time the tip of his finger pushed inside me.

“Tell me, Violet. Not just for the night, but forever.” He raked his teeth over my neck to get my attention, but the sensation made my eyes roll. “You’re ours. Say it.”

His finger pushed in deeper and I threw my head back to moan at the ceiling. “I’m yours! I want to come back home!”

The sound of doors closing barely broke through my lust-filled daze. Ben’s voice suddenly filling the car got my attention, though. “You’re goddamn right you’re coming back home.”

I was left tingling and needy when Mason put me back in my own seat and buckled me in. I whined and squeezed my thighs together. “Fine. We’ll come back to the house over the garage.”

Justin shook his head. “You’ll come to the main house.”

“You’re all so damn bossy. I’m an adult.” I didn’t know why I was arguing. I wanted to move in with them. I wanted to be a family.
