Falling For You (Alpha Hero Book 2) Page 4

  I nod my head, but I’m not satisfied. I won’t be, not until my wife is here and I have her and our daughter with me at the same time.

  I’m rocking our daughter when they finally wheel April into the room. They set her up in bed and she’s still pretty out of it.

  “Hey, honey,” I say to her and she blinks her eyes a few times before finally opening them.

  “The baby?” she asks me.

  “She’s perfect. She’s so perfect, April. Look at how beautiful she is.” I lay her down on her momma’s chest and she instantly falls asleep. April is looking down at her and love is shining in her eyes.

  I can’t hold it back anymore. A tear escapes and rolls down my cheek. Before I know it, I’m full-on crying. I don’t know what I would have done if I’d lost either one of them.

  I lean down and whisper to her, “I love you and our baby girl.”

  She’s exhausted. I can see it in her face. But she still smiles at me. “We love you too.”

  April

  It’s the middle of the night and I jolt up, remembering that I’m in the hospital. Looking around the room, I see Terry sitting in the corner with our baby girl pressed against his shirtless chest.

  Just in one afternoon he’s a natural. I had wondered how he would do with this, a new baby and all. But he’s done perfectly. He’s a natural. And there’s no doubt that he loves his little girl.

  I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I thought about Allen today. He would have become a father today. We may not have worked out, but he would have loved his little girl, I have no doubt.

  My voice is scratchy as I mutter to Terry, “You’re going to spoil her.”

  He smiles over at me and shrugs his shoulder. “She’s my baby girl. Of course I’m going to spoil her.”

  She starts stretching in his arms, wiggling all around. He gets up and brings her to me, laying her on my bare breast. She latches on to me and we both watch her suckle. Terry’s hand is stroking through my hair, and his voice is hoarse. “I don’t know what I would have done if anything happened to either of you.”

  I reach up and grab his hand. “But nothing did. Plus, you just told me you loved me. There’s nothing that would stop me from coming back to you now.”

  He leans down and kisses my lips gently. He pulls back a little to look into my eyes. “I fell in love with you five months ago, honey.”

  I release a breath. “All this time wasted.”

  He just smiles and shakes his head. “It wasn’t wasted. We were together. That’s all that matters, and from this point forward it’s the three of us…. I finally got my family.”

  I press my forehead to his. “Kiss me, Terry.”

  He smiles widely. “With pleasure,” he says right before his lips touch mine in a kiss filled with promises.

  Epilogue

  Terry

  Six weeks. It’s been six weeks and I’ve been marking off the days since the birth of our baby girl, Ella. I mean, I should be talking about celebrating her six-week birthday, but I’m not. No, I’m hoping to celebrate something else.

  I whip my truck into the driveway and sprint across the yard, up the steps and into the house. I call April’s name as soon as I walk in, ducking my head in and out of each of the rooms for her. My heart is racing and the closer I get to my bedroom, the harder it beats. I stop in the doorway and there she is.

  “What’d the doctor say?” I can’t take my eyes off her. She’s lying on the bed, wrapped in a black silky robe.

  She just smiles and nods her head. “He says we’re good to go.”

  I pounce on her then, jumping onto the bed with a whoop and a holler.

  I start pulling her clothes off her and look over into the bassinet next to the bed. “Where’s Ella?” I ask her between kisses.

  April is pulling at my clothes as fast as I’m pulling at hers. “She’s with Shannon for a few hours.” I’m not surprised when she mentions Shannon watching Ella. Shannon and April have become pretty close since she jumped in the fire truck with us when April went into labor.

  Groaning, I lean over her. “A few hours. Honey, I have months and months to make up for. A few hours is not going to be enough time.”

  She laughs. “Okay, stud. It’s a good start, though.”

  “Yes.” I moan as she grabs on to my cock and strokes her hand up and down it. She pushes me backwards and gets on her knees between my legs. “I’ve wanted to taste you for so long. No more putting this off. You’re mine now.”

  She whispers the words, looking straight into my eyes as she strokes up and down on my rock-hard cock. When she bends over, her nipples caress my leg as she opens her mouth and takes me all the way in. I cup the back of her neck as she takes me deeper. Her mouth slides up and down, while her tongue masterfully strokes along the length of me until she licks the slit of my tip, smacking her lips at the taste.

  She opens her mouth to take me deep again, but I can’t take it. I can’t stand it. I pull her up my body until she’s lying on top of me. Her large breasts are pressed against my chest and her body is fitted perfectly to mine. Every curve is begging for my touch. She parts her legs and my cock, like a heat seeking missile, positions between her swollen folds. I push her backwards, climbing on top of her.

  I stroke my cock along her wetness, and with each stroke, I hit her swollen clit and she throws her head back, while she’s moaning my name.

  “We haven’t talked about birth control,” I moan to her.

  I know what I want, but I don’t know what she wants. I would keep her pregnant forever if it was my choice. But she just finished her online degree. She may have other plans, like going back to work.

  “No…” she moans as I slide the tip of my cock inside her.

  I pull out then and she wraps her hands around my back, holding me in place.

  I’m sweating, gritting my teeth, barely hanging on. It’s like I’ve seen the promised land, it’s right where I can see it, but I can’t reach it.

  Her legs tighten around me, feet digging into my hips, forcing me against her. “No, don’t stop. No, we haven’t talked about it. But I want your baby, Terry.”

  I bury myself in her then. Buried to the hilt, I hold on for dear life as I sit there inside her. I give her only a second to adjust to me before I’m thrusting in and out of her. I rub her clit, stroking circles around it, and soon her pussy clamps down on me. I piston my hips back and forth, in and out. She’s writhing underneath me, but I don’t stop. I don’t stop until her nails are scratching down my back and she’s screaming my name with her pussy clamped tightly down on my dick. Only then do I give it to her. I shoot my hot seed deep inside of her, grunting into her like a man out of control.

  I fall on my forearms, still connected to her in the deepest sense of the word. I’m kissing her face, telling her I love her over and over.

  Already, I can feel myself hardening inside her. Yeah, a few hours is not going to work for me.

  Epilogue 2

  Zach

  I pull up to Terry and April’s house. I won’t lie, I’m here about every other day now. I would say it has nothing to do with the little paramedic that keeps showing up, but I’d be lying.

  I walk up on the porch and there sits Shannon holding little Ella in her carseat. She’s sitting on the floor of the porch, using her hand to rock Ella back and forth.

  “What are you doing out here?”

  Her face turns a bright red. “Well, I was supposed to be back a half hour ago, but they’re not answering the door.”

  I start to walk to the door, but she stops me. “No, they’re okay. They’re just busy.”

  Then I hear it. The sound of April screaming inside leaves very little to the imagination. I cover my ears.

  Shannon’s face gets even redder. “What are you doing?”

  I can read her lips, so I answer her back. “Uh, Terry will kill me if he knew I heard his wife making that noise.”

  She looks at me with confusion on her face s
o I tell her, “Men, well most men don’t like to share stuff like that.”

  Her eyes get big and she looks away, giving her attention to the baby.

  I walk over to them and sit down on the concrete. “How’s my girl?” I ask.

  Shannon’s eyes flick up to mine. “Oh, uh, she’s good.”

  She starts to say something but then changes her mind, looking out into the yard.

  I can tell something’s on her mind. “What is it, Shannon?”

  She clears her throat and looks over at me. “I want you to take me out.”

  Ever since I first met her I’ve known this woman was going to be a problem. She says it like it is, no beating around the bush with her.

  But she’s also innocent. I can see it in her eyes. Fuck, I can smell it on her.

  Although there’s nothing I would want more than to be buried between her thick thighs, I still think better of it. “That’s probably not a good idea.”

  Now most girls would just agree and walk away. But not Shannon. Nope, she wants to know why.

  “Well, I don’t really date. I take women home with me. But I don’t date.”

  She shrugs her shoulders. “Okay.”

  I look over at her. Wait, hold up—did she just agree to what I think she agreed to?

  By the smirk on her face, I would say that’s a yes.

  Oh, fuck, I’m in trouble.
