The gaze she sent him was intended to let him know how much she missed him when he was gone.
He smiled and took her hand. “Don’t worry, kitten. I don’t think it’ll be too much longer.”
She sent him a small smile, then ate some more eggs, buoying up her courage to make the announcement.
“What’s on your mind, Abi?” Del asked.
She glanced his way. “What do you mean?”
“You’ve been distracted for days, and now you have this tense aura about you.”
Liam raised an eyebrow. “And it’s not because of coffee, since you haven’t had any yet. And we all know how much you love your morning coffee. Do you have something you want to tell us, Abi?”
She bit her lip. Then she nodded.
“I do. It seems I’m pregnant again.”
She watched as both men’s eyes lit up, then they whooped in joy. Liam stood up and dragged her into his arms and twirled her around, then Del took her and squeezed her tight.
Finally, she sat back on her chair, her head spinning.
“Why the hell were you so nervous telling us?” Liam asked. “You know we all want more children.”
She reached out and took his hand, then took Del’s, too. She drew in a deep breath, then glanced from Liam’s chocolate-brown eyes to Del’s warm, olive-green ones.
“I know, it’s just…” Her stomach quaked. “It’s Del’s baby.”
Del’s face lit up and he surged to his feet and pulled her into his arms again. She was so glad to give Del this.
She loved that she was carrying Del’s baby. It made her so happy. But it also stressed her because Liam was her husband, and as much as he’d said he’d be okay with her having Del’s baby, she wasn’t sure how he’d handle it when faced with the reality.
“Well, it’s about fucking time,” Liam said. He patted Del on the back, then pulled Abi into a tight embrace.
Her eyes widened. “What do you mean?”
He chuckled, a rumbling from deep in his chest. “Now I don’t have to keep going away for weeks on end.”
She frowned. “I don’t understand.”
Del laughed. “Really, man? You did that for me?”
Liam squeezed Del’s shoulder. “Of course.”
Abi glanced from one to the other. “You guys want to explain it to me?”
“Liam was giving us time alone together,” Del said, “while you were most fertile so my sperm wouldn’t have any competition.”
Abi’s jaw dropped as she stared at Liam.
“You wanted me to get pregnant by Del?”
Liam smiled. “I wanted our second child to be fathered by Del, yes. I wanted him to know the joy I’ve had at seeing my first child born. To know I was responsible for that life being created.”
Liam drew her into his arms and kissed her tenderly, then he drew back and stroked her hair from her face.
“Now you can expect me to be home all the time. I’m not leaving the three of you again.” His hand slid to her stomach. “Or should I say four?” He laughed. “Especially remembering how horny you were during your last pregnancy.”
“Well, considering how much you’ve been away from us … and how considerate you were to Del…” Suddenly, the sweetness of his gesture tugged at her heart and tears welled in her eyes despite her light tone.
“Oh, there are the hormones in action,” Del observed with a chuckle.
“As I was saying,” she continued, blinking back the tears, “considering those things, I think you should have total say in what we do next, Liam.”
“You mean like me ordering you to strip off all your clothes and lie down on the bed with your legs open?”
She sucked in a breath as heat shimmered through her. “Yeah, just like that.”
His eyes darkened. “Good. Then do it.”
She pulled her nightshirt up and over her head. Their gazes lingered on her naked breasts and she ran her fingers underneath them and lifted. The sparks in their eyes ignited her desire. She glided her fingertips down her stomach, then pushed her panties downward. Slowly. Watching the hunger in their eyes.
She dropped the panties to the floor then sauntered to the bed and lay down across it. She opened her legs wide.
“Oh, yeah, baby, that’s nice,” Liam said. “I love seeing your pussy exposed like that. Now stroke it for me.”
She ran her fingers down her belly, then lingered just above her intimate flesh, teasing them. Then she slid over the slick flesh. She stroked the length of the folds, then dipped a finger inside.
“Oh, I’m so wet.” She sighed and arched her breasts upward.
“I think those perfect breasts need some attention,” Liam said.
“I’ll do it,” Del said eagerly, heading around the bed behind her.
He knelt on the floor, then gathered her long hair together and spread it in a mass beside her head, stroking it gently. He kissed her cheek, then his large hands covered her breasts. His gentle caresses had her moaning softly.
Liam walked toward her, then knelt on the floor facing her.
“That leaves me to tend to this.” He dipped his head down and licked her pussy.
She whimpered and arched to his mouth. He chuckled against her flesh, then he drove his tongue into her. It swirled and lapped inside her. She curled her fingers in his glossy, dark brown hair, holding him to her.
His tongue found her clit and he flicked over it, sending vibrations of pure delight through her.
“Oh, yes. That’s so good.”
Del leaned in and captured her lips, kissing her while Liam drove her need higher with strokes and flicks of his tongue on her sensitive bud.
She drove her tongue deep into Del’s mouth, undulating against his tongue. Del’s fingers rippled over her hard nipples in strumming motions, then he squeezed them and she moaned into his mouth.
Heat boiled inside her as the pleasure built within her.
She tugged her mouth from Del’s, sucking in a deep breath as she felt a wave of bliss surging through her.
“Oh, God, I’m going to come.”
As Liam suckled her clit, he pushed his fingers inside
