“This is exactly what I needed,” she says, settling into our large soaking tub.
“You don’t have to keep taking her shopping. It’s probably hell on your feet.”
“It’s become our thing.”
I sit on the edge of the tub. “Who’d have thought the two of you would ever have a thing?”
“Yeah. It’s pretty great.”
“You’repretty great.”
“I don’tfeelpretty great. In fact, I don’t feel prettyorgreat. I feel like a beached whale.”
I stand, crack a smile, then undress. Stepping into the tub, I work my way around her so her back is leaning against me. I reach a hand around her and whisper in her ear, “I know just what to do to make you feel both.” Then I touch her clit.
Her head falls back against my shoulder, and she groans. I love the sexy little noises that come out of her when I touch her. I love how she’s not afraid to moan and mewl and tell me what feels good. She’s the most sexually compatible person I’ve ever been with—just one more reason we’re meant to be together.
My dick grows hard against her back. “Fuck, I love the way you feel.”
She moans her appreciation when I slip a finger inside her. I alternate playing with her clit and her pussy, driving her to the brink and then pulling back. It’s been a minute since we’ve done this. She needs a good release. Maybe that will help her sleep tonight.
“Oh… yes… Ash… right there… don’t stop.”
I smile against the side of her head. “You like it when I do this.” I swirl a finger around her clit.
“Yes.”
“You like it when I do this, too.” I plunge two fingers inside her.
“Mmmmm,” she moans.
“You love the way I make you come,” I mumble slowly in her ear.
“Please… Ash… do it.”
I’ve teased her long enough. I use my finger like I’d use my tongue, flicking her clit back and forth, keeping up constant pressure. Her head presses back into me. Her back arches. She shouts out with her explosive release. It’s so damn sexy, I almost come myself. It doesn’t matter that I don’t. This is about her, not me. Her body. Her pleasure. Her comfort. I don’t move my fingers until she pushes them away, drawing every last quiver out of her body.
Her chest heaves with a huge sigh. “Wow. Thanks, I needed that.”
“Anytime. And I mean that.” I move my hand up to her stomach. “Did it calm them down or wake them up?”
“It—”
Her entire body stiffens, a complete contradiction to how relaxed it was just a moment ago.
“Allie?”
“I felt a pop. Asher, I think my water just broke.”
My eyes go wide. “Oh, shit. But how will we be able to tell given you’reinwater?”
“I’m pretty sure. It’s a fairly distinct feeling. And I remember it from… before.”
I gently get out from behind her, pull the drain on the tub, and wrap her in a towel.
“Wait. Do you see any blood or anything? Hudson will want to know if it was clear fluid or not.”
