“Tell me what you’re thinking? You want us to move into your father’s home?”
“Yes. It’s what he would have wanted. It’s the perfect home and plus, Martha is much happier in the kitchen there. She hates your kitchen,” she says with a soft smile.
“She’s mentioned it,” I mutter.
“Niko, our child deserves a house that’s really a home. I haven’t been able to bring myself to sell it anyway. It would also solve that problem. Honestly, every time I’m there, I feel like my father is there in spirit. He wants us there almost as much as I do.”
“Is it really that important to you?”
“Yes,” she insists.
“Fine, we will contact a moving company and begin the process. We can have the realtor list this one.”
“Really? Just like that?” she asks.
I shake my head. I don’t know why she thought it would be a problem. I’d move heaven and hell for her. Right now, I’m loving the excitement that fills her face. Her eyes shine making me feel like a king for making her dreams come true.
A man could get addicted to that look.
“Just like that,” I confirm.
“You mean it? You’d move all the way across town and live in my father’s home that easily?”
“Haven’t you figured it out yet, Em?” I ask, raising my eyebrows in surprise. “I’ll give you anything.”
And I will. She will never want for anything. Ever.
“What about the baby I’m carrying? Will you give him or her anything too?” she asks, smiling.
“Yes,” I tell her absently until it hits me, and I just stare at her. “Wait…What did you just say?”
“I’m pregnant.” She sits there expectantly, looking more beautiful than I should have the right to touch. I’m frozen, unable to move.
“You’re pregnant,” I finally respond when it finally feels like I can breathe.
“Yes. I mean, I’m a month late, so I took a home test this morning. It was positive.”
“We need to see a doctor. We’ll go today.”
“I have things to do today and tomorrow we are meeting Zoe and Callan at Salsa for dinner, so that’s out. Still, I contacted my doctor and I go in on Wednesday for an exam.”
“I’m going with you.”
“They will probably just draw blood to confirm everything, Niko.”
“I don’t give a damn. I’m going to be there every step of the way.”
“Okay, honey.”
“God, I fucking love you, Em.” I shove my breakfast out of the way, grabbing her by the hips and setting her on the bar in front of me, making her laugh.
“What are you doing?”
“I’ve decided I want you for breakfast,” I manage to utter as I untie her robe, laying her back.
She opens her legs to me, and I look at the feast laid open for me and only me.
“I think I like being your breakfast,” she teases, her eyes locking on mine as I slide my fingers inside her.
