Hex’s voice jerked her out of her thoughts. The other woman’s brow was creased.

“You sure everything went okay at your doctor’s appointment? The baby is okay?”

Addie licked her lips. She wasn’t sure she should share the news without Bram. He was in the office somewhere with Killian and Devyn.

She didn’t think he’d mind. “Babies. There are two.”

Hex’s mouth formed anO. “Twins?”

“Yes.”

“Oh, my God.” Hex squealed and threw her arms in the air. “Congratulations. That is amazing, and crazy.” She sat on the desk, swinging her feet. “Holy cow, Bram with twins. I can’t picture it.”

“A boy and a girl.” It still didn’t feel real.

“No wonder you’re looking shellshocked.”

Addie shook her head. “It’s not that.” She rubbed a hand over her belly. “I mean, it’s a surprise, but a good one. I worry about how we’ll cope—”

Hex pressed a hand over Addie’s. “You’re not alone.”

Emotion welled. “I know. But…I don’t want Bram just because he feels duty-bound to me. I want him. All of him”

Hex’s expression turned serious. “Okay, go on.”

“I want him to love me, Hex. I want him to throw me on the bed and…” Her cheeks heated.

“I always wondered what Bram would be like in bed.” Hex winked.

Addie laughed and pressed her hands to her cheeks. “He can be very focused, and a little rough, in a good way.”

“Quit rubbing it in.”

“But the last few days, he’s been taking care of me, but he hasn’t said how he feels…”

“Hmm, well talking about feelings isn’t one of Bram’s strengths.”

Addie nodded and plucked at her shirt. “I know. He’s holding back. He’s made sure I’ve… Um…”

“He’s given you some glorious orgasms.” Hex grinned. “Lucky lady.”

“But he hasn’t made love to me.”

“I told you, you definitely need to seduce him. Drive him so crazy that his rock-solid, Irish control snaps.”

“What if he doesn’t want me?”

“Pfft. He does.”

“If I chase him, I might drive him away.” Addie lowered her voice. “I can’t lose him.”

“Oh, you won’t. That man is head over heels for you. Not just because you have his babies inside you.”

“Babies?” Devyn sauntered in.

Killian’s woman was so gorgeous and fit, her glorious, russet-red hair shining. It was up in a tight ponytail today. She had a tan-colored shirt tucked into fitted black pants. A gun was holstered on her belt. Just being in the same room with Devyn made Addie suddenly feel fat and frumpy.

“Bram and Addie are having twins,” Hex said.
