“You will.Even if you have to stay up all night to get it down.”His grin grew.She knew him so well, he thought.He told her he’d get to it as soon as he put the girls back to bed.Carrie yawned.“Don’t be too late.”
As soon as the girls were down for the night, he made his way downstairs to his office and pulled up the information on the land deal again.He was so tired he could barely think.His computer had gone to sleep so many times now that he would think that it was getting a headache.He was.But he had to seriously finish the work he’d been putting off.Once he dug into it, he knew that he’d get it finished.
It was nearly three-thirty when he looked up from his computer.Barton was sitting across from him, sound asleep with his head back.He didn’t snore, not really, but he did make strange noises in the back of his throat.Waking him up by just saying his name, it never ceased to amaze him that his brother could sleep like that and wake up and pick up a conversation as if there hadn’t been a pause.
“I’ve been here for about an hour.You’re boring when you work.”He asked him what he wanted.Then pointed out the time to him.“I came to tell you that Michael didn’t make it to prison.He was killed when he was put on the bus to take him there.Once he was seated, he grabbed the woman officer and tried to take her gun.The other officers said he kept saying how stupid and dimwitted they were for hiring a woman.She didn’t have the balls to kill anyone.I guess she showed him.He was shot three times in the head, and she walked away unharmed.”
“Why couldn’t this wait until in the morning?”He told him what he’d heard from Mick when he’d let him know.“You know how to get in touch with him then?”
“I do.I’m to send him pictures of the girls once in a while.Also, the judge figured that I’d tell you and warned me not to tell you where he is.Mick has decided that he isn’t coming back here.He said he needs to start a new life and is afraid he won’t be able to do that if he is here with the girls.He also said that they’d be a sad reminder of his failure as a dad to them.I don’t think he’ll ever get over that feeling, but that’s just me.”Barkley told him he didn’t think that he would either.“I thought you’d say that too.Also, you might not realize this, but you and Carrie are married.”
“I know that, blockhead.”Barton stood up and smiled at him.“So you’re leaving because I’m married?”
“No.I’m leaving because you’re a dumbass if you’re down here and your pretty little wife is upstairs all by herself.I would imagine she’s pinning away for someone to come to her and tell her how much she’s loved and cherished.You do love and cherish her, don’t you, blockhead?”
After seeing his brother out, he locked up the house and checked on the girls.Once he was sure they were safe, he made his way to the bedroom.Carrie was sound asleep and snoring softly.Undressing, he got into the bed with her, and she immediately curled her body around his.It was the best feeling he’d had in a while.Being loved and being a father.
It occurred to him in that minute that he was a father.Someone’s, well, two people’s dad.He nearly passed out.He was hyperventilating so hard.It wasn’t until Carrie slapped him that he was able to take in a breath and let it out slowly.She asked him what the hell was wrong with him.
“I’m a dad.”She glared at him.“All right, smarty pants, you’re a mom too.Did that occur to you anytime tonight?”
“Yes.Several times but I didn’t nearly have a heart attack while thinking about it.What would you have done had I not smacked you?Pass out and be dead to the world in the morning.What are you going to do when they start school or go on a date?Should I have an ambulance on standby for you?”Barkley told her she wasn’t nice.“I’m being very nice.I didn’t call you all that many names, did I?”
“They’re not going to date.”She stared at him hard.“They’re not.I’m going to be putting my foot down on that.”
“Yeah?Well, good luck with that.”She rolled over with her back to him.“I’m going to tell your dad and mom what you said too.Not dating indeed.How will we ever become grandparents if they don’t meet some guy and marry him.”
He had to hold himself very still and not alert Carrie that he was doing it again.When she rolled over and looked at him, he tried hard to smile at her, but without breath in his lungs, he couldn’t manage it.She was still making fun of him when she dumped a glass of water over his head that was on her nightstand.He could breathe again, all right, but now he was soaking wet and embarrassed.He wondered if she’d always be like this when he was having a moment.Grandparents?They were barely parents, and here she was making his a—
“Stop overthinking, Barkley and go to sleep before I have to knock your head off to get some rest.Tickling her, he nearly lost his nose when she tried to get him to stop.One thing about Carrie and being her husband, he knew that things were never going to be without fun.
Chapter 8
Carrie woke up with the sun shining in her face.Sitting up on the bed, she looked around at the messy room.Last night had been fun, she thought with a smile.Just when she was dozing off, Barkley came to the bed and jumped her bones.That’s what he called it, anyway.The guy was such a romantic, she thought with a giggle.
Getting out of bed, she realized how sore she was.It wasn’t from making love last night.At least she was reasonably sure about that.But who knew with that man.He could bring her to tears one moment the way he made such soft love to her.Then the next, she’d be screaming out her releases so many times that she would have a raw throat the next day.She got into the shower after turning the water on.
Her breasts had small bite marks on them.Nothing painful, just tiny bruises she thought of as badges of honor.Carrie had only asked him if he thought her breasts were too small.He’d leaned over her and took one into his mouth, laving her nipple until she nearly came before he laid back on his pillow.
“They’re perfect.A mouthful for me.”She asked him if he was referring to the little saying that she’d heard a long time ago.“You mean more than a mouthful is a waste?Yeah, I heard that, but honestly, I think that breasts are the most amazing part of a woman.They can bring such joy to us both.They are there for when children arrive and nurse them to keep them healthy.Did I mention how much fun they were?”
“Yes.You did.”She moaned when he pulled her over him, having her sit on his groin.His cock was hard.She could feel it as it touched her.But he seemed more intent on her breasts than anything else.She watched as he cupped them both in his hands and sampled them one at a time.“That feels so amazing, Barkley.”
“It does.I love how the tips peak just for me.Then when I nibble on them, they seemed to get harder still, filling my mouth with the most sensational flavors I’ve ever tasted.”He continued to suckle at one and then the other for so long that she was sure he was never going to stop.And she didn’t want him to.It felt so good to be made love to by him.
Adjusting her around so that she could slide down over his cock, she nearly came when he pressed against her clit, causing her body to tighten up to the point where she was having difficulty even breathing.He teased her about how much he was enjoying her facial expressions.
Riding Barkley—something that she’d not thought of as enjoying—she paced herself.She took her time to enjoy what she was doing and the obvious pleasure she had given to Barkley.The noises that he’d made and the look on his face were something that she’d not noticed until then.Especially the vein on his neck that was pulsing at the same rate, very quickly as his heart was.
“I love the way your skin pinks up when you’re aroused.”She moaned, unable to speak while her body had been in such splendor.“Your eyes are so dark right now that it’s hard to believe they’re usually so light.Christ, Carrie, I love you.”
She had been able to come four times before he’d rolled her over onto her back.Wrapping her legs around him, for no other reason than she felt she needed to hold on, he made love to her entire body with not just his cock but his hands, mouth and legs.
Each stroke of his hand down her body sent shivers over her.Carrie felt the goosebumps rise on her flesh.It had been sexy in the most wonderful way.Simply the way her body responded to his touch was something that she was sure she’d never get enough of.
His legs slid up and down hers.Reaching down to his ass, she cupped her hands on his muscled flesh and nearly came when he moved in a way that had him touching her clit.It wasn’t enough yet, too much at the same time.
Her breasts were tender from what he’d done to her last night.He’d not hurt her, no, never that, but he continued to taste her nipples, suckling on her breasts.Even thinking about it now had her cupping her breasts to feel the pleasure once again.
