There’s an SUV blocking Sunny’s way.

“Who is that and what are they doing?” I ask as He leaves me standing alone to grab his coat and gun.

“I’m going to find out. Please go to the bedroom until I get back.” I raise an eyebrow.

“Am I in danger?” He huffs and checks his rounds before clicking the clip back into the gun and loading a round.

“When are we not, and do we now love. Remember you’re carrying another life. So please for my sanity get away from that fucking window.” I swallow hard and back away.

“Okay. Be careful.” I kiss his cheek as I pass and move to the bedroom, where I take up residence in another window with an even better view of what’s going on outside.

I slip my hands under the curtain and try to open the window without giving myself away. Just a crack is all I need so I can hear what is happening.

“I will not devouluge any paatient information. I don’t need your money. No move out of the way before I call the authorities.” Sunny sounds mad and insulted, with no cheery tone to her voice at all.

“Gentleman, you are trespassing, and as the sign says, I shoot first fuck the questioning. Leave. Now.” Bruno’s voice leaves no room for interpretations, and a moment later I hear doors closing and tires crunching on the ice and snow.

“Thank you. I’m not sure what you have going on up there, but I understand the importance of privacy and wanting to protect your family. I will not endanger either.” Sunny’s voice sounds matter-of-fact.

“Much appreciated. What did they want from you?” There’s a moment of silence, and then Sunny confirms my fears.

“They offered me one hundred thousand dollars to confirm her pregnancy with regular updates.” Bruno curses, and I cover my belly with my hands.

They can’t have you.

“I told them to go to hell.” A car door opens and slams shut in annoyance.

“As if I could be bought.” Her outrage makes me smile.

“Thank you. We will see you next month.” Bruno’s sincerity warms my chest.

I hear Sunny’s car move and then let out a long sigh.

“Close that fucking window and get naked cause I’m going to spank the shit outta you for not listening,” Bruno growls into the window, making me jump.

I close the window quickly and turn to the bedroom door, wondering if I should lock him out. The front door opens, and he stomps the snow off his boots.

“You have two mintues sweetheart. Follow my orders, and I’ll let you cum while I punish you.” My crazy hormones spike, and for two seconds, what he’s offering sounds good.

“Ninety seconds,” I listen to his belt hit the floor.

I’m in a slip dress, so I just shimmy it off my shoulders until it lands at my feet just as Bruno makes it to the doorway. He’s just as naked as I am, and the sight of him makes my blood pressure skyrocket.

“I don’t appreciate my pregnant wife endangering herself after I asked her to keep safe. Especially when I’ve grown very much attached to her.” He closes the distance between us, running his hand from my cheek to my belly, where he stops and stares.

“You’re both too fucking precious to lose now. Not when I just got you. Not when I love you both so damn much.” I gasp at his words.

“Love?” My voice and lip wobbles when I ask.

I need to confirm I heard it, not imagined it.

“Love, sweetheart. Let me show you how much.” He kisses me softly until I melt into him.

“Wait, wait! I love you too.” I rush to say before kissing him again.

He chuckles as he carries me to the bed.

“And because I love you so fucking much, I’m going to take it easy on you this one time. But if you ever disobey me again, you won’t be able to sit for a week. On your stomach. Grab the rails of hte heaad board and don’t let go.” He tosses me on the mattress where I bounce with a giggle but listen to his instructions.
