“I’m saying…” He took a slow breath. “I’m saying that I thought about what you said about wasting time. I want to have another baby with you. If you want.”
“If Iwant?” I scoffed. And then, because I simply couldn’t resist kissing him when he’d just given me the best gift in the world, I grabbed him around the waist with my good arm and pulled him straight up against me, his feet leaving the ground. “I want,” I panted between kisses. “I want, I want. Can we start trying now?”
In response, he reached between us and gripped my cock through my pants, stroking my erection with the soft flannel. “Let’s ditch the condoms.”
I growled. “Damn my shoulder. I want so desperately to own you right now.”
Jasper moved down my body, sliding his pants over his hips to puddle on the floor, before making a big production of uncovering my cock, licking his lips. “I’m sure we can find a position that works.”
He turned and crawled onto the bed on all fours, arching his back as he looked over his shoulder at me. “How about this one?” He reached back and pulled one cheek aside to reveal his glistening hole.
I groaned, kneeling on the bed behind him and leaning down, swiping my tongue all the way through his crack, from his balls, over his taint, before delving into his entrance, his fragrant slick making my mouth water. I tongued his hole until he was thrusting back, fucking my face. But no, as much as I loved making him squirm, this wasn’t how babies were made.
I moved in behind him and lined the thick head of my cock up against his puckered star. This was it. Just as one door closed behind me with the end of my career, another path lay open before me, and all I had to do was reach out and grab it. A husband, kids—the family I’d always dreamed of.
I sheathed myself inside him, his tight heat welcoming me, except… no matter how amazing it felt without the condom, something wasn’t quite right. His moans of pleasure were too far away. Kneading my hand into Jasper’s ass, then sliding it up along his spine, I hooked my arm under him and across his chest, bringing him up onto his knees, holding him against me. “Jas, I need to see you, to kiss you.”
“Lie down,” he said, and I reluctantly pulled out and did as he said, rolling as quickly to my back as my injury allowed. Then he straddled me, notching me straight back inside him, dropping down in my lap with a single thrust that had my eyes rolling to the back of my head, groaning. Then he lay down on top of me and kissed me, the strokes of his tongue against mine matching the languid roll of his hips. “How’s that?” he asked breathily, but he didn’t need to ask. It was clearly perfect for both of us.
“I love you, Jasper,” I whispered against his lips, cradling his face in my palm. “I can’t wait to see you grow round with my child inside you.” Gods, the mere thought of it nearly brought me over the edge.
“I love you too,” he just barely managed to say, his words getting choked off by a groan as he increased the pace.
Hot, I was so damn hot, like a fire was being stoked with the friction of each grind, the flames fanned with each gasp. It was both too much and not enough all at the same time. I wanted to piston myself into him again and again until we both exploded, but I also wanted to slow down, to memorize every detail of the moment we vowed to create life together.
Jasper’s skin grew damp with sweat as he rocked against me, and I knew there would be no holding back for either of us.
When I couldn’t take it any longer, I held him in place and fucked him from below. I struggled to catch my breath, pressure building, my balls clenching. Jasper’s whole body went rigid, and he threw his head back as he came. I felt him throbbing between us, and it set off my own release. I held myself as deep inside him as I could as I filled him with my seed, sending all the prayers to the universe that we would get our baby.
Jasper moaned as my knot swelled inside him, and his dick jerked. Then he dropped his head onto my chest and shuddered. “That was…”
“So damn good,” I finished for him.
“Yes, that.” He chuckled, then after a moment, lifted himself up to look down at me. “Do you think it worked? Am I pregnant?”
“I think it’s far too early to tell, but don’t get discouraged if it doesn’t happen right away. Either way, I intend to keep practicing. Okay?”
He nodded, and we lay together, talking into the night, making love whenever the mood struck us. Our future was coming together, and I was so excited to be here for everything that came next.

Jasper
Ididn’tgetpregnantthat night. Nor did I get pregnant any night over the next three months, but that didn’t mean we’d stopped trying. If anything, we couldn’t keep our hands off each other, making up for lost time. It was just… I was starting to get a bit worried. We’d conceived Cam without even trying, so I supposed I thought it would be easy.
Instead of freaking out and insisting we see a doctor about it, though, I decided to put that anxious energy to good use. And as it turned out, I was ridiculously efficient now that I had a second set of hands. Eric was around to help with the cooking, the cleaning, the parenting and chauffeuring our son to appointments or activities or playdates. Suddenly, it seemed like I had time to doeverything!Donations for the school bake sale, volunteering at a soup kitchen—I’d even taken up gardening, now that we had an actual garden.
We finally found the perfect house for us in the neighborhood, with a fenced yard and a pool, lots of counterspace in the kitchen, plus four bedrooms just begging to be filled with children, so I canceled my lease and Eric put his house on the market, and we set about moving in. And since I suddenly found myself with all this extra time and energy, I threw myself into painting and decorating too!
At Beck’s vet clinic, I was training my replacement, a soft-spoken woman named Dierdre. I was officially enrolled in classes for the fall—part-time, just in case a baby came—and Eric gently suggested that I could quit my job if I wanted. We didn’t need the money, between his savings and his new income from the local high school where he’d applied for the coach position. It was quite a step up for the team, having a former NFL quarterback to help guide them, considering their last coach had also been the science teacher. The principal kept apologizing that they couldn’t pay him more, but Eric didn’t care in the least. He just loved helping the kids, and he wanted to stay close to home in case he was needed.
All in all, it was a pretty great life, and yet… something was missing. But maybe not for much longer…
I swallowed hard, tiptoeing past Cam playing video games in the living room, with my paper bag from the pharmacy in hand. Cam was just as excited for a baby as I was, and I didn’t want him to get his hopes up if it was another false alarm. I was late for my cycle, and I’d put off taking a test for as long as I could stand it.
Disappearing into the bathroom, I reached into the bag and pulled out the pregnancy test. My chest felt tight, making my breath kind of wheezy. I blew out a long, slow breath and tried to shake it off. “It’s probably nothing. The test will be negative, and I’ll go about my day.” I peed on the stick quickly, put the cap back on, and set the timer on my phone for two minutes.
Longest two minutes of my life.
