over each plate. “Well, we are even.” Hesmiled triumphantly as he pushed a plate toward her and one towardNic.

Lucy steppedforward and took hold of the plate with an equally triumphant grin.“Whatever.” Then she left the room.

Nic and Lucyhad taken Alexander to the shopping precinct for the afternoon.Bryce had taken off in search of Gareth to have a word to him aboutskipping his appointments with Jessica, and Nate and Charli hadbeen in their bedrooms. Nate appeared at the top of the stairs justas I was about to head up there to see what they were doing. Thesight of him at the edge of the top step terrified me immensely,causing me to panic.

“Nate, becareful!” I shouted in a loud voice.

He startled alittle at my outburst and gripped the railing rather tightly. “Mum!You scared me. I was being careful,” he called down to me.

“Sorry, Mate.Just make sure you hang on to that railing at all times,please.”

He nodded andmade his way down slowly, timidly walking up to me and giving me ahug.

“Promise meyou’ll just be very careful, okay?”

“Okay,Mum.”

“What’s Charlidoing?”

“Writinggirl’s names on her notepad with coloured markers, there are a lotof names on that list, Mum.”

“I’m sureshe’ll pick the right one.” I loved Charli’s dedication to a taskthat was set for her, although I knew she felt this task was aspecial one.

“Mum, can youhave another baby?” Oh shit! That came out of nowhere.

“Yes, Ican.”

“When?”

“Not rightaway, Mate. Mummy’s body needs to heal first. ” I smoothed his hairaway from his face. “Why?”

“I was sort oflooking forward to it.”

I pulled himto me and hugged him tight, kissing him on the side of the head.“Do you want to know something?”

“Yeah?”

“I’m going toask Bryce real soon if he would like another baby, but it’s asecret, so don’t tell him.”

Nate noddedhis head, but had a dubious glint in his eye.

“What, littleman?”

“What willhappen if the next baby dies too, Mum?”

I sighed.“Sometimes these things just happen, for no reason. We can’t stopthem. All we can do is accept them and try again. I can’t promiseyou that our next baby won’t die too, because I don’t control that,Sweetheart. But what we can do is be hopeful and look after eachother.”

“Mum, I’mgoing to look after you.”

“I know youare, because you are totes the sickest son ever!” I said in Nate’sstyle of lingo.

Nate justshook his head at me.

Later thatnight, Bryce and I were snuggled next to each other in bed.

“I’m going tomiss you,” I said as I traced small circles around his abs.

“I’m going tomiss you, too, but I have to go, Hunny. It’s just shit timing.”

“You have todo what you have to do, Mr. Clark, being the big billionaire hotelowner that you are,” I retorted playfully, trying to lighten ourdull moods.

“It’s what Ido, Ms Summers.”

I giggled. Hehadn’t called me Ms. Summers in a while and I kind of missedit.

“What else doyou do, Mr. Clark?” I tilted my head up to look at him through mylashes.

A small butsexy growl resonated from his throat right before he slid out fromunderneath me and propped himself up on his side. His eyes found mylips, and I couldn’t help but squeeze them together and drag my toprow of teeth across the bottom one. That small uncontrollablereaction to his stare was all he needed to lose his restraint andmove forward, rapidly seizing my mouth.

I broke awaymoments later, breathing heavily, trying to catch my breath. Hemoved his perfect lips down my neck, gently licking and nipping atmy skin. My fingers made their way into his luscious dirty blondehair, where I gripped his head with the intention to stop his lipsteasing me any further. I had to stop him, because his mouth hadthe ability to torture me into wanting more, and more, I could nothave—not for at least another week.

I was about totell him to stop, when he came back up to my mouth and I felt histongue once again.

“I know whatyou’re thinking right now?” he said through heavy breaths inbetween kisses. “You’re thinking I want to make love to you, andyou’re thinking you don’t want to say no.” Yes, your thinking isone hundred percent correct. “Well, you’re right. Of course Iwant to make love to you...but...you have so many other body partsthat need my attention; that need me to make love to them, thatneed to be fucked by my mouth.”

He caressed mytongue with his own then pulled away from my lips, eyeing mesalaciously as he changed course and trailed kisses along my neckand up behind my ear. I sucked in another breath as his gloriouslips kissed and sucked my skin.

His hand sliddown from my cheek, along my neck and stopped at the seam of mybra, all the while his lips, teeth and tongue continuing to teasethe very sensitive spot under my ear lobe. My skin began to heat,and my pelvis automatically rose away from the mattress.

He groanedmildly then slipped his finger underneath my bra, gently grazing myperked nipple. I gasped and tried to roll my hips into him.

“Hmmm, that’sright, Hunny. That piece of you right there wants to be fuckeddoesn’t it?” he breathed into my ear, before dragging his teethdown my neck then trailing his tongue back up to my lobe, teasingand tricking me into thinking he was going to fuck my nipple.

“Oh, God,” Imoaned, desperate to feel his wet, warm tongue on my breast.

He gently bitdown on my ear lobe again and squeezed my nipple between both hisfingers.

“Bryce! Yes,please fuck it.”

He chuckledagainst my skin as he made his way down to my nipple. “I have everyintention to,” he admitted, as he undid my bra and removed it,eyeing my breast before he slid his tongue across my nipple. Ithardened at his touch, forcing my chest to magnetise toward him,pushing my nipple further into his mouth. He groaned at my responsethen flicked his tongue quicker, sending my body into a meltdown. Iwas climbing to a climax in a weird kind of way. Not strange weird,but different weird, good weird. It was a new sensation, and I wasenjoying the escalation.

He released mynipple from his lips and made his way down my stomach. No,re-attach,
