Chapter Ten

Rory walked Gina up the stairs. Chance and Callie had long since gone to bed, as had Fisher, while they’d stayed downstairs snuggled up on the couch talking and smooching in front of the fire. The light of the flames cast the house in a warm haze. Rory placed the guard in front of the fireplace and took her hand, leading her up the stairs to her room. The door was ajar and the only light upstairs came from almost-shut bathroom door, leaving a soft glow over her room.

She paused at the door. “Rory, did you, I mean would you—”

He silenced her with a kiss, stealing the words before she could utter them. He needed her more now than he could believe. He’d watched every move of her lips when she spoke over dinner. The movement as she swallowed her food had left him almost panting with need. Seeing her put her son to sleep had woken in him another kind of need that had been niggling just under the surface for days. The need to have a complete family. There was no way he was letting her go no matter what kind of trouble Tyson caused.

Her skin had shone in the firelight as they lay snuggled up on the couch in front of the flames talking over their future with small snippets of Gina’s past thrown in as he got to know her. She’d struggled and that alone made him want to protect her so she never needed for anything again.

While he’d managed to push away the final threads of guilt, a single strand still remained. Determined to take this woman to bed tonight, he mentally severed it, leaving the way clear for a night of sensual lovemaking. In his mind, the best way he could honor his wife and unborn baby’s memory was to take care of this woman and her child when they needed it most.

Now it was time for bed and Rory had no intention of sleeping alone. He walked her into the room, his lips still locked onto hers. With his foot, he pushed the door shut and turned Gina back against it, pressing into her body.

She broke the kiss, her breathing coming in ragged pants. “I need you, Rory. I have to tell you, I haven’t been with anyone since I got pregnant and I’m not on any birth control.” She licked her lip and he wanted to take it between his teeth.

“Did you mean what you said about bearing my children?” He traced his lips down her cheek and under the soft skin of her chin.

She swallowed before answering. “Yes.”

“I’m ready to start practicing anytime you are. If we get lucky straight away, so be it.” He traced the curve of her chin with his tongue, the taste of her skin driving him forward. His fingers fumbled with the buttons on her blouse and Gina pushed his hands away taking over the job herself. He continued to taste the skin on her throat, under her ear, and in the hollow of her shoulder.
