“Stop fucking around,” Brooks grouched.

I sat back in my seat and my gaze sliced back to Kyle. Damn, he was hot. I didn’t think I’d ever get over how good-looking he was. And he was all mine. He’d told me so. And he’d shown me with his actions so many times he’d made me believe in ways that I’d never forget. Not ever.

And because he gave to me so completely, I’d given him all of me. All the good, the bad, the ugly, all my love. I’d laid myself bare and he liked what he saw so much that he claimed it all for himself.

I couldn’t have gotten any luckier.

He’d given me his time, his attention, his heart, his friends, his family. Therefore, he’d given me the world, and I’d make sure he wouldn’t regret it, not even for a second.

Tatiana huffed. “Okay, fine, if you’re sure you wanna know, Daddy.”

A mystified silence descended and I wasn’t entirely sure there was a man sitting around the table who was breathing.

“The two of you trying your hand at Daddy/baby girl kink?” Max snarked.

My lips quirked and I bit back a laugh. Okay, that was funny, but not what Tatiana was going for.

“You serious?” Brooks growled.

I tore my eyes from Kyle’s beaming smile; he totally understood what Tatiana was saying to Brooks.

Right there in front of us all his face showed a thousand emotions, all of them good, all of them happy. Then just as suddenly as his smile appeared, it was gone. He was up out of his chair and he was stalking toward his wife. Her chair was pulled out, she was scooped up with a surprised yelp, and off they went.

“No one come upstairs!” Brooks shouted as he rounded the corner, and Emerson and I exploded in fits of laughter.

“What the fuck just happened?” Max asked, and Emmy and I bust out into another round.

“Got shit to do,” Declan announced and stood. “Be back later.”

Before I could get myself under control, the door slammed and Thad and Kyle exchanged an unhappy look.

“Seriously?” Max asked. “They playing some kinky game I should know about? We share a wall, I need to know. If he’s up there tying her ass up making it red, I wanna different room. I can’t sleep through that shit. It’s bad enough I can hear the rest of you fucking like rabbits. Literally fucking… like rabbits. Someone’s sporting for some headphones so I can sleep.”

“Are you dumb?” I repeated Max’s earlier question back to him.

“What? I’m telling the truth. All of you are loud.”

“They’re not playing a sex game, jackass.” Thad chuckled.

“She’s pregnant,” I announced.

“No shit?” Max smiled.

“No shit,” I confirmed.

“Damn. That’s good news. Maybe I’ll get some sleep after all.”

“At least for the next few months,” Kyle added.

Kyle looked back at me with eyes dancing with humor and something else I couldn’t quite put my finger on. Something that looked like the same longing I had when I was holding baby Eric. My stomach pitched and my heart thundered in my chest.

A dream I never thought I’d dream formed, one that included little boys that had light brown hair and green-flecked eyes. And maybe a little girl to teach to be strong and brave.

But mostly I was dreaming about the bright future I never thought I’d have.

“All done,” Anaya said and taped the last box closed.
