Eager to give her that, he latched on to her clit and sucked, using his tongue to flick at the same time. Under his palms, her muscles tightened, then spasmed as she exploded into her first orgasm.
Her second came soon after he stood and slid inside her, holding her against the wall with his hands under her ass and his upper body pressed gently against hers. As she whispered a breathless stream of pleas in his ears, he surged hard, filling her over and over again until her heels dug into his ass and inside, her muscles started clenching again, milking his own release as he pressed deep one last time.
“I love you,” he whispered as he lowered to the ground. “Here in Chicago. Back home in Wardham. Or wherever we end up. I’m right by your side for whatever adventure you want to go on next.”
She cupped his face in her hands. Her eyes were steady and sure, even as her chest rose and fell unevenly. “I want to make Bluewater Cove our new home.”
“Then that’s where we’ll go, my wife.”
She squeezed him tight, and he closed his eyes, counting his blessings.

Perfect Ever After
December 23, ten years later
“Where’s my wife?” Kyle’s voice bellowed up unexpectedly from the ground floor of the schoolhouse.
Laney stood up so fast she nearly beaned herself on the exposed beam in the loft. “Up here!”
His footsteps echoed through the open space as he hurried up the stairs, then filled the door frame. Big, broad, sturdy. Silver-flecked brown hair a little wind-blown, and his warm eyes sparkled.
And he was alone.
“Where’s Bean?” she asked. She’d driven down to Wardham from Bluewater Cove earlier in the day with Buddy, their border collie, because she’d had the day off from the hospital, and wanted to take advantage of the bright, sunny morning to open the windows and air out the schoolhouse that was their second home—but they hadn’t been here since Thanksgiving.
Kyle followed with their daughter after school let out, and they must have made excellent time, because she hadn’t been expecting them for another half hour.
He grinned at her as he shrugged out of his jacket. “At your mom’s. She called and said Bean’s cousins were there, and had stolen Buddy from you?”
Laney laughed. “Accurate.”
“And Bean would rather play with her cousins than come and get a Christmas tree with us. Plus, now we get some magical holiday alone time.”
Laney’s pulse leapt as she realized what her husband meant. “That’s a very good idea,” she murmured, moving around the bed she’d been making.
The bed they would sleep on for the next five nights, the room open to the rest of the renovated holiday home, where their almost ten-year-old would be sleeping downstairs—and, in all likelihood, her cousins, too.
Laney loved coming home to Wardham for Christmas, and to this house in particular, that Kyle had renovated with his own two hands, piece by piece. It was where they’d made some of their favourite memories, after all. But due to the chaos of the last week of school for Kyle, and two late night surgeries for her, they hadn’t had a chance to have sex all week, and she’d assumed they just wouldn’t again until they returned to Bluewater Cove.
“What are you wearing under that sweater?” Her husband caught her around the waist and tumbled them onto the newly made bed.
Before she could answer, his hands slid under the warm, chunky knit and found the trembling skin of her belly, and then higher, to the simple bralette that offered no challenge for his questing fingers.
“I like this,” he whispered against her mouth as he pinched her nipple through the barely there fabric. It was one of his favourites, and maybe that’s why she wore it, to feel sexy, to be sexy for him, even in the chaos of the holidays.
She kissed him hungrily. She liked it, too. She liked how he still came prowling in search of her, his wife, after all this time. And she loved how they made each other feel.
Needy. Hot.
“How much time do we have?”
He dragged his mouth down to her neck. “As much as we want.”
“I missed you this week.” She pulled at his t-shirt.
