A smile tugged at her mouth. "I love you, too, Luca."
"I've been thinking a lot about my mother lately. She would have loved to call you her daughter-in-law." Curling my arm around her, I kissed her forehead. "When I was younger, I only cared about my mother. And after she died, I thought I would spend the rest of my life without caring about anyone until I met you."
She grabbed my hand and laid it over her baby bump. "You have changed so much in the past two years. I'm so proud of you. I always knew there was good in you. That's why I never gave up on you, no matter how much I wanted to walk away."
"I promise to spend the rest of my life showing you that you made the right decision."
Alex leaned over to kiss my cheek, the warmth from her breath heating my skin. "You're worried about Marcello, aren't you?"
"Yes," I admitted. "He's the reason you're still here. You wouldn't have given us a chance if it weren't for him."
"And you're afraid I'll leave if anything happens to him?"
"No." I blew out a breath of air, my heart racing as I looked into her eyes. "I'm afraid of losing what the five of us have. You've said plenty of times that it's all or none of us."
I shouldn't have feared Alex leaving us. But at the back of my mind, I wondered if she would still want to be in this relationship if Marcello were not a part of it. This was a concern Bastian and Damian voiced to me earlier. We knew she only stayed because of Marcello. He helped her to see that each of us was worth loving.
"I love each of you in different ways." Alex rubbed her pink lips together, a sincere expression on her beautiful face. "My love for you is not the same as your brothers. One of you will die before the other. That's life. It's inevitable. And it won't change how I feel about you."
"But you said this only works with the five of us," I pointed out. "Many times."
"I only said that because I didn't want to choose. Even if I tried, I couldn't pick one over the other. I would have walked away from all of you. It wouldn't have been fair."
I dipped my head down and kissed her lips. "I think I've loved you from the moment I saw you. Back then, I didn't know how love felt. I just knew I wanted to protect you. To keep people away from you."
She giggled. "You had a funny way of showing how you felt about me.”
"I was an asshole." I rolled my shoulders against the stack of pillows. "What do you want from me? I didn't know how to process my feelings for you."
"So you tortured me instead." Alex shook her head, laughing. "And made your brothers harass me daily."
"I know it's my fault," I confessed. "You would have been mine and only mine if I hadn't made the mistake of pushing you away."
Her hand dropped to her stomach as she winced from another kick. "I'm your wife. You still won, Luca."
"Now that I have you, I want to live long enough to deserve you."
Our noses touched, and her lips brushed mine. "How about you show me your appreciation?"
I stripped off Alex's pajama top and sucked her nipple into my mouth. Her hand fell to my head, a soft moan escaping her throat.
"Oh, God, Luca." Her fingers wove through my short, spiky hair. "I love the way you worship me."
I lifted my head, so our eyes met. "Only the best for my queen."
Flicking my tongue over her nipple, I shoved down her shorts and panties. She whimpered with each tug on the tiny bud that swelled in my mouth. I loved watching her unravel for me.
"Get on top." I flattened on my back, ripped off my boxers, and helped Alex straddle my thighs. "Ride my cock, baby girl."
My fingers burrowed into her hips, digging into her skin. She gave me a few strokes, fisting my shaft as she took all of me.
"Baby," I grunted with each thrust of her hips. "You feel so fucking good."
Alex pressed her palms to my chest to stabilize herself. I took my time, careful not to hurt her. When she wasn’t pregnant, I fucked her hard and treated her like my little slut.
She loved it.
But something changed inside me after I found out she was carrying my sons. So I made love to her for most of this pregnancy. And she took advantage of my softer side, losing herself with me.
