The CEO And The Wedding Planner: An Instalove Possessive Age Gap Romance (A Man Who Knows What He Wants Book 201)
Page 9
“Oh, you’ve tried everything?” I say, grinning down at my son, who everybody says looks exactly like I did at that age.
He’s got the same thick brown hair and the same eyes, but when I look at him I don’t see myself. I see somebody completely unique, a little man who’s fast becoming his own person.
We’re in my home office which overlooks the garden and outside Gertrude, Natalie, Lyle, and their two children – Casey and Benny – are sitting around the table.
Beyond them, tending to the barbecue, stands my wife, my beautiful goddamn wife who I can barely look at without losing my mind and my control. The years have added luxurious gradations to her curves, her face becoming light and full of loving energy with motherhood, her eyes always sparkling even when her work throws her a curveball.
My wife who runs Eternal Bond now, that Gertrude has retired, and who has turned it into the go-to wedding planner for the stars.
I watch as she and Lacy exchange a few words, Lacy grinning up at her mother, her hair in the same dark bun that Melody wears. Closer, wrestling over a football, are our two rambunctious nine-year-olds.
Twins twice in a row.
What are the odds we’d get so lucky twice?
Liam and Tyler go at it like little maniacs, and maybe they have a slice of their father in them, too.
“Dad?” Jacob says, pulling me back to the lines of code we’re working on. “You’re staring at Mom like a weirdo again.”
My laugher booms through the house, free and happy. I reach up and move my hand through his hair, which he hates or at least pretends to hate. But he laughs the whole while before finally slapping at my hand.
“Like a weirdo, eh?” I say.
“Yeah,” he laughs. “You get all googly-eyed over her.”
“You’ll understand one day, son,” I tell him.
“Gross. What about the solutions?”
“Do you remember how I told you that when you got really good I’d set traps in the problems for you?”
Realization dawns on his face. He grins, which fills me with pride, knowing that he wants to be challenged.
“Really? I’m that good now, Dad?”
“You’re that good now,” I smile. “Now you better get cracking, because Mom’s making burgers and you know how cranky your old man gets if he has to miss a meal.”
“Awesome,” Jacob says, turning to the computer.
I go to the corner of the room and pick up Harmony from her bassinet, clutching her to my chest and rocking her softly as she makes singing cooing noises.
I look over her head and see Melody watching me, and so much love flows between us I’m shocked it doesn’t send our house flying to the moon.
I mouth, I love you, wife.
And she mouths right back, I love you more, husband.
I kiss Harmony’s sweet-swelling head and close my eyes, savoring this moment, as I savor every moment with my family.
And always will.
Because I’m the luckiest man alive.
