That beautiful smile

That beautiful smile
"Tell me when," I told him.

He panted through the pain, but a minute later, he nodded, and I pulled him to my chest and switched our positions so that he was riding me.

"Let me watch you ride me," I requested.

Laudis wavered a little, his eyes closed, but then he braced a hand on my chest and slowly began to fuck himself on me. With his free hand, he reached around to caress my balls, and my eyes rolled back in my head as I moaned in pleasure. But I didn't want to miss this, and I forced them back open to watch Laudis. He looked like he was in his own world, his hips tilting this way and that, finding just the right angle to make him gasp and moan. I grabbed his ass and spread his cheeks which prompted a hiss and he bounced faster on my cock.

My toes were curling, trying to keep it together while my mate used my body to pleasure himself. Laudis tugged at my balls and my hips twitched up in an involuntary response.

"Ryan King!" Laudis shouted, then slapped a hand over his mouth. I'd almost forgotten about Chloe. We hadn't had sex while she was in the house before. That was going to take some getting used to. Laudis bit on a knuckle as he sped up, riding me relentlessly, and I couldn't just observe any longer. I grabbed his hips with my hands and used them to lift him and slam him back down, thrusting my hips with each pull. My knot slid in and out of his hole, just enough to tug on the ring of muscles each time, but not yet locked inside him. Laudis was squeaking and cussing past his knuckle and I was so damn close—!

But I wanted Laudis to come with me. I kept one hand tight on his ass, continuing to thrust, but circled his cock with my other hand, stroking him in

time with our furious movements until we both came. I managed to keep it to just a grunt, but Laudis shouted one incoherent yell as he clenched around me, prompting my knot to swell and lock me tightly within his body, tying him to me, for at least the moment, as my cum filled him. I imagined filling Laudis with more babies, and my body clenched in an even more powerful, almost painful surge before I fell limp. I managed to turn to my side, guiding Laudis gently down to the bed. There were a few uncomfortable moments as we figured out how to arrange our legs with my knot limiting our movements, but then we found a position that worked and settled in for a moment of rest, my chest heaving, my skin burning, and my heart whole.

“I love you.” I snuggled in as close as I could, savoring his knot. “And not just the we had sex and I’m currently feeling euphoria I love you, but a legit, in my soul with all I am love, I love you.”

“Who’s the sap now?”

I tapped his nose playfully before capturing my lips with his in an all too brief, yet very satisfying kiss.

“I never pretended not to be.”

He smiled at me as I caught my breath.

“I’m sorry. I promise to never act that irrationally and selfishly again,” I vowed.

“Oh, my omega, you don’t need to apologize anymore.” He squeezed me tightly. “We both messed up. That is what people who love each other do. We will mess up again and again. The important thing is that we remember to never give up, even when one of us is being a dumbass.”

“Cause that’s definitely going to happen,” I conceded. We were both going to mess up. It was okay, as long as we remembered what was important instead of freaking out and running away. And by we, I meant me.

“It is,” he agreed, the guilt of our near catastrophe still settled in his eyes. “So…” If we allowed ourselves, we would ruin the rest of our knot time

shrouded in guilt. Well deserved, but not at all useful, guilt. “I need to give you my notice.”

“Notice of what?” It was adorable the way his nose scrunched up in confusion.

“Quitting, obviously.” I cupped his cheek with my hand, needing to feel

as much of him pressed against me as possible, still partially convincing myself this was all real and that he was mine. “You don’t need a nanny anymore.”

“Are you okay with that?” His head tilted, putting more pressure on my hand and sending warmth straight to my heart.

“What, not getting paid for doing the same work?” There was no way I should be getting paid for being his omega. We both knew that, but it still needed to be said.

“Yeah, that.” He laughed at the ridiculousness of the entire thing.

“I’m more than okay.” I lifted my face to meet his, our foreheads touching. “It means this is real and we are a family.” Family. Just saying the word was everything. I was his. He was mine. And together with Chloe and the little one growing inside me, we were family. An honest to goodness family. One built on love, not on expectations.

“We were a family long before this. Chloe could see it. We knew it too, even if we didn’t admit it to ourselves.” He was such a smart man–most of the time.

“Family,” I repeated again, letting the word echo in my head. “I love the sound of that.”

“I love you.” Ryan King sealed his words with a kiss. “And I love you.”

“And I love our little boy.” Ryan King settled his hand on my belly. “I can’t wait to see you grow as our baby grows inside of you.
