He lowers to his knees in front of me, removing the dagger then guiding my panties down. Heat swells in my core as he licks my clit. My knees almost give way. Tyler feels my weakness and fastens an arm around my waist to support me while trailing kisses down my neck.
Felix pulls back from me. He’s quiet, which is unlike him, always full of praise and dirty talk. I’m aching so badly for his mouth to return between my thighs, I’m about to beg.
“Shit.” His flat tone is the last thing I expect to hear.
I look down, confused by the abrupt change. A moment ago, he was desperate to have sex. Now…
His eyes are fixed on a small blood stain on my panties.
“Harper…” he speaks my name softly. An apology.
“No.” My throat clenches and tears sting my eyes. “Goddammit. Again? I thought... I really thought this time…”
Tyler must see the blood too. He’s cradling me. “I know, baby. I thought so too.”
Felix rises to his feet and kisses my forehead, hushing me. “I’m sorry, Harper.”
I wipe a tear from my cheek, unsure if I’m more angered or sad. “Another month, another failure. My body has betrayed me again.”
“Your body hasn’t betrayed you,” Felix says.
They guide me to the bed where I sit miserably between them.
Tyler strokes my hair behind my ear. “We’ll keep trying.”
I give a humorless laugh, sniffling. “I should have waited for the test. I’m embarrassed for letting myself believe.”
Felix wipes my cheeks dry. “Don’t you dare be embarrassed.”
“I felt different this month. I was so sure.” My voice cracks from yet another dose of heartache. “Why won’t my body do the one thing it’s supposed to?”
“Shh,” Tyler soothes, weaving his fingers with mine. “Your body is perfect. You’ve only just started to heal from years of heartbreak and stress. We have alotof time to keep trying.”
Felix laughs softly, kissing my scarred palm. “Harper, I promise you, there won’t be just one baby. Tyler and I are going to keep getting you pregnant. Tell me how many kids we’re going to have.”
I nod, drawing strength from their unwavering belief in me. “Two boys who will look like each of you. And two girls who will look like our mothers.”
“Perfect.”
This moment, though a disappointment, is incredibly special, reminding me of what’s important. I have two amazing men who love me fiercely and catch me when I fall.
Sniffling, I wipe my face. “Today is a good day. I have you two and that’s all that matters. Ally and Dan aremarried. No more tears. No more sadness. Even if there’s never any baby, if you both love me, I’m the luckiest girl in the world.”
“We’ll never stop loving you,” Tyler says. “It’s the three of us, always.”
My lips press to Tyler’s as my fingers work to undo the buttons of his collar, needing the physical connection of our love. “I need you. Both of you. Right now.”
He kisses me back while removing his clothes.
“Ride him, Harper,” Felix whispers, standing from the mattress and unbuckling his belt.
Tyler pulls me onto his lap, the two of us sitting at the edge of the bed. I slide onto him with ease, my breath hitching as his thickness fills me.
Tyler groans when I settle fully onto him. He’s gentle, loving me in the most tender way. “You’re so precious to us.”
I roll my hips, savoring the delicious stretch of our bodies connecting. My rhythm is slow. I rise from Tyler’s cock, each time nearly letting him slip out before sinking all the way back down.
“You feel so good inside me.” My voice quivers. We’re lost gazing into each other’s eyes.
