“Your treatment of others—people you aren’t even related to. This little guy would be your flesh and blood. I can’t imagine how much you’d grow to love him.”

“All the love in the world can’t help you raise a baby,” I countered.

“You can get a nanny.”

I chewed on my bottom lip. “I don’t want just anyone taking care of my kid, Red.”

She smirked.

I arched a brow. “What?”

“See? Already so protective.”

Rubbing my temples, I admitted, “I’m scared.

Not only because of how much my day-to-day life will change, but also because you and I had finally come to an understanding that we would try to make this work.

I don’t see how I could possibly be there for you the way you’d need me to now.

” I groaned. “Anyway, so much for taking this moment by moment, huh?”

She squeezed my hand. “It’s okay. You’re allowed to feel all over the place. We both are. There’s no playbook for this situation.”

Oak was asleep in the corner of the living room when we returned to my place.

After a few minutes, February came up behind me in the kitchen, wrapping her arms around me and placing her cheek on my back.

I turned to face her and looked down into her beautiful eyes.

“What do you need, Brock?”

“I need to go back forty-eight hours to when my life felt complete.”

“I wish I could give that to you. But what can I do right now?”

I rubbed my thumb across her lips. “You being here is everything.”

“I want to do more.” She reached up and threaded her fingers through my hair. “Use me to forget about your troubles tonight…”

Whoa. Wasn’t expecting that. “You want me to fuck you so I forget about all this?”

“Tonight is the last night before we know something. There’s still a chance that this might not be real, even if that’s a long shot. But let’s just escape from reality for the rest of the night. Then tomorrow we’ll face everything.”

I don’t know what came over me, but I’d gone from stressed and scared to hornier than I could remember in a matter of seconds. Maybe stress did that to you. But suddenly I needed her more than my next breath.

Lifting February off the ground, I carried her over to my bed. But the moment I put her down, it became clear that I wasn’t the one in charge tonight .

“Lie back,” she commanded, gesturing to the bed.

I did as she said while she climbed on to straddle me.

She slowly removed my clothes as I lay there, my cock stiff as a board.

All I wanted was to bury myself inside of her and forget.

Tonight was the last night before my life would likely change forever.

I needed to mark it somehow, and there was no better way than this, making love to February.

No matter what happened, I’d never forget this night.

When she began to disrobe, my dick hardened further, dripping with arousal, and I became desperate to feel her skin to skin.

She was stark naked as she pulled down my boxers, my dick bobbing forward, practically slapping her in the face.

February laughed as she wrapped her mouth around my cock and proceeded to give me the best head of my life. Up and down, deep into her throat, occasionally circling the tip with her tongue. My eyes rolled back from the sheer pleasure of her warm mouth fucking me.

I nearly came before she pulled back, my dick making a popping sound against her mouth at her sudden retreat.

Then she moved to hover over me, sinking down onto my shaft. I let out an unintelligible sound as I went balls deep into ecstasy.

“Fuck, Red,” I muttered. “Fuck. You feel so freaking good.”

February swayed her hips as she rode me, her clit rubbing against my groin with each gyration.

“You knew exactly what I needed, didn’t you?” I rasped, digging my nails into her lower back .

Panting, she nodded as she picked up the pace.

I wasn’t going to last another minute. Her riding me like this was too damn good to handle. I gripped her waist and pushed her down onto my cock with greater force.

When her body began to tremble, I let go, spurts of hot cum exploding out of me as I emptied inside of her. She screamed in pleasure as her own orgasm fully took hold.

After we came down, Oak barked in the doorway. He must’ve needed to make sure February wasn’t hurt after the way she’d shrieked.

“It’s all good, buddy.” I chuckled.

She lay next to me. “I should probably feel weird that Oak just saw me naked.”

“Are you kidding? You gave him his biggest thrill of his life.”

“You’re assuming seeing you naked isn’t an even bigger thrill for him.”

“Well, he and I have never had that conversation, so anything is possible.” I turned my body toward hers. “Thank you for that. I managed to feel like a normal man again for twenty minutes.”

“The pleasure was all mine.”

That night, February and I fell asleep in each other’s arms, Oak once again joining us at the foot of my bed. Just the three of us.

Was it the last time we’d ever do this?

The following morning, a phone call woke me.

My heart raced as I got a look at the caller ID.

The lab.
