I felt the tears building in my eyes. “Do they know? I mean, does everyone know?”

He let out a small chuckle. “Just Josh and Heather. They’ve been keeping an eye open for us. I do know that they have been talking about moving to Mason, but I don’t think I could go that country! I mean, Fredericksburg has everything, but with that small-town charm.”

I threw myself into his arms and began crying. “Yes! Oh my God, yes!” I pulled back and laughed. “And we can build a house? Our own house how we want it?”

He nodded. “Yes, pumpkin. However you want it.”

“When? When can we buy the land?”

He looked away for a brief second before turning back to me. “I um, well, I kind of already bought it. I hope you’re not mad.”

I shook my head and wiped away my tears. “No…God no, Brad. I’m not mad at all. I want to scream I’m so happy! When can we start planning? I want to design the house ourselves!”

He reached down and picked up the other box. “How about we start planning after you open your next present?”

I grinned and took the box from him as I sat down again and began opening it. I took the lid off and moved the pink tissue paper out of the way and revealed a beautiful red silk and lace gown. I took it out of the box and held it up.

“Oh, Brad. It’s beautiful,” I whispered.

“Go put it on,” he said in a low voice. I snapped my head up to him and jumped up as I quickly made my way into the bathroom. I’d never stripped out of clothes so fast in my life. I ran over to my dresser in the closet and pulled out a pair of red lace panties and then grinned. I put the panties back in the drawer and slipped the gown over my head. I stood and looked at myself for a brief second. I pulled my unruly red curls up and let a few fall down around me face. One quick spray of perfume and I was ready.

I slowly opened the door to the bathroom to see Brad lying in bed. When I stepped out he sat up. Did he just make a growling sound?

“My God, Manda. You look…you’re…you are breathtakingly beautiful.”

I smiled as I placed my hand on my stomach. I felt the butterflies dancing in there and I had no idea why. Brad got out of bed and my hungry eyes devoured his nak*d body. I bit down on my lip and had the incredible urge to drop to my knees and take him in my mouth. I slowly licked my lips as he moved closer to me.

“Amanda…” he whispered as he leaned over and brought his lips up to mine. The way he moved his lips against mine—teasing me with the kiss I so desperately wanted—was driving me insane.

“I want to lose myself in you, Manda,” he whispered against my lips as he moved his hands along the silk gown. It felt like he was poking me with a thousand little needles as his hands traveled along my body. He began gathering up the material and smiled.

“I hate that you only got to wear this for a few minutes, but I need to be inside you, baby.”

I dropped my head back and whispered, “yes,” as his lips moved along my neck. When he lifted up my gown and noticed I didn’t have any panties on, he dropped to his knees. He lifted my leg and put it over his shoulder.

“Brad…oh God!” I said, and I felt his tongue teasing my clit. I pushed my h*ps into him…I needed this more than I thought. I wanted to beg him but ran my hands through his hair. With each tug of his hair he moaned and I about fell apart.

Then I felt it building. I grabbed onto my br**sts and let out a gasp. Shit! They were so sore it was unreal. I slowly began playing with my nipple through the delicate fabric. Then it hit me as he moved his tongue in just the right rhythm.

“Brad! Yes! Ah…oh God…yes…” I felt like I was having one of the most intense orgasms of my life. I felt my one leg wobble as I tried to remain standing up. Before I knew what was happening I was on the bed and he was on top of me. The silk gown was still on and he was teasing me with his tip. I shook my head to clear my thoughts…it felt like my body was still trying to come down from my orgasm.

“Manda, I’m going to make love to you,” he whispered. He lifted the dress and I barely moved so he could lift it over my head.

“Yes, Brad…please. I need to feel you.”

With that, he entered my body in one swift move. I let out a scream and grabbed onto his ass as he began to move in and out of me. The way he was moving his h*ps and kissing on my neck was more than I could take.

“Brad…oh God! I think I’m going to…yes…oh God, don’t stop what you’re doing.”

“Manda…baby, come for me, ’cause I can’t hold off much longer. You feel f**king amazing.”

Shit! Him telling me to come pushed me over the edge. I began calling out his name over and over as he began going faster.

“Harder, Brad! Shit, go faster!” I called out.

The next thing I knew he was biting down on my shoulder as he fell apart.

Oh. My. God.

He steadied his breathing and moved his lips up to my ear and said, “You’re the most beautiful woman I’ve ever laid eyes on, Manda. I love making love to you more than anything. I love you so much.”

I felt the tears building in my eyes as he moved his forehead up to mine and looked into my eyes.

“I love that you say that to me. It makes me feel so special.”

He smiled as he kissed me lightly on the lips.

“I love you, Brad.”

“I love you too. Thank you so much for loving me. For believing in me.”

I pulled him to me and began kissing him with as much passion as I could. I needed him to know how much I loved him and how much I did believe in him. How much I believed in our love and in our future.

He rolled off of me and pulled me to him as we both quickly drifted off to sleep.

That night I dreamed of country houses, horses, two little girls running around and Brad making love to me under the stars.

Chapter 8: Brad

I woke up to someone giggling. I sat up and looked around. Amanda must have already gotten up. I stumbled out of bed and looked around for my sweats. I was exhausted. Amanda had woken me up in the middle of the night by crawling on top of me. I couldn’t believe how she rocked my world again last night. I’d never had an orgasm that felt like it started in my f**king toes. I laughed as I shook my head thinking back to Jeff telling me I was in for a ride because pregnant women were horny as fuck.

My smile faded as I thought about Amanda being all alone all those months while she was pregnant with Meg. I shook my head to clear my thoughts.

As I opened the bedroom door, I heard my angel talking.

“Oh, Heather. I’ve never in my life felt so incredible sexy as I do now. I mean, the gown he bought me was so beautiful and elegant, but also sexy as hell. Oh, then last night—it was beyond amazing. I don’t know if it was because of how sexy I felt, how happy I was about the land or just the idea of being with him that had me so insane with lust.”

I leaned against the wall and listened to her going on and on to Heather. My heart was pounding a mile a minute knowing that I made her feel that sexy and that loved. It did things to my heart and even more things to my stomach. I pulled out my phone and looked at the time.

“I don’t know! He just told me last night but I’m so ready to start right now! I’d love to have the house done before the baby is born. Yes! Oh God…the idea of making love to him in every room… on every surface. Fuck…I think I need to go crawl into bed with him again!”

I held in my laugh as I pushed off the wall and made my way into the kitchen. As I walked into the living room I saw Maegan playing with one of her new Christmas toys. She was in a trance and I couldn’t help but laugh. Amanda jumped up and said, “Hey…my prince is up, so I’ll talk to you later. Hey Heather? I’m so happy that you enjoyed your evening last night as much as I enjoyed mine,” she said as she winked at me.

I smiled as I made my way over to Maegan. She smiled when she saw me and held out her hands. I picked her up and carried her into the kitchen with me.

“Good morning, my princess. Look at how beautiful you are this morning. You take my breath away baby girl. Have you had your breakfast?”

“She has. But I bet she would love to sit and eat some more,” Amanda said with a laugh.

I reached in and took out a container of Hawaiian Delight baby food and began giving it to Meg. The smile on her face caused me to let out a chuckle.

I glanced over and saw Amanda watching me. I winked and the expression on her face changed. She bit down on her lip and began rubbing her one leg up and down her other leg.

“Manda?”

“Yeah?”

I let out a laugh. “Baby, are you horny?”

“Oh my God, yes! Brad, I don’t know what’s wrong with me but seeing you sitting there with her and…oh God.” I watched as she moved her hand down into her sweatpants and began feeling on herself.

“I just want…I just want to feel you inside of me.”

I jumped up and picked up Meg and made my way into the living room. I set her in her playpen and wound up some sing-along toy.

I walked back into the kitchen and walked over to Amanda.

“No…Brad, I need to see the baby.”

I picked her up and brought her over to the island and set her down. We had a clear shot of Meg in her playpen. I pulled Amanda’s sweats down and then her panties.

“Wrap your legs around me, Amanda.” She quickly did. “Brad, the baby. We can’t do this in front of the baby.”

I glanced back over to Meg who was now laying down fighting to keep her eyes open. I took a few steps back and pushed Amanda up against the wall. I reached my hand down and touched her. Motherfucker she was soaking wet.

In one quick swift move I pushed into her. She let her head rest against the wall as she let out a gasp. “You feel like heaven. Pure heaven.”

“Brad, go fast…I need you to go fast…and hard. I want it…I want you to…” she said, breathing heavy.

“Say it, Amanda,” I said.

She closed her eyes and then opened them and looked into my eyes. “I want you to f**k me.”

Best. Christmas. Ever.

As much as I wanted to make love to her I knew how much she just wanted to be f**ked and that is exactly what I did.

“Brad,” Amanda called out. “Yes…yes!”

I couldn’t hold off any longer. “Amanda…ah hell baby. I’m gonna come.”

“Ah…Feels. So. Good.” As we both came together we captured our moans with passionate kisses. I swore I’d never had such hot sex in my life.

She looked at me and said, “Oh my God! Meg!” I quickly looked over my shoulder to see our princess sound asleep snuggled up on top of her giant Tigger.

“She’s sound asleep, baby,” I said as I winked at her.

“Brad,” she whispered. “That was probably one of the hottest f**king moments of my life.”

I threw my head back and laughed. “Yes. Yes it was, baby.”

She let out a giggle and said, “I feel so naughty. I can’t believe we did that with Meg right here.”
