  “Isla needed some time to get ready, so I brought the twins.” Walking over to Ebru, I gave her a kiss making her blush as always. I then stopped and grabbed a handful of trail mix before walking over to say hey to Scarlett, Adam, Mace, Ava, Mark, Tom, Layla and Maya’s parents and sister. It was a full house, literally.

  “What do you think they’ll call her?” Ava asked.

  “Ren refuses to think of baby girl names,” Mace snorted. “He’s adamant that the balls and peen just need to drop,” he added, making everyone burst out laughing.

  “My brother isn’t so smart,” I pointed out.

  “Well, at least now they have stuff for a baby girl,” Maya’s Mom said pointing at the mountain of presents waiting next to the table. I’d given Ebru my card and told her to go get pink shit this morning after I’d been asked to go to get Isla. After some arguing over her using my card, Ebru had given in and had text me while I was driving over to say what she’d bought from both of us. I fully intended to go pink shit shopping myself at some point, but at least they had some stuff for now.

  Looking around for Pippa, I couldn’t help feeling a bit peeved when I saw Lasco holding her with Dash at his feet. To add insult to injury, he was sitting in the most comfortable chair that Ren and Maya owned - my chair. Pippa was out cold on her back in his arms, while Dash sat staring lovingly at him.

  Walking over to him, I expected Dash to come running up to me and at least hump my leg or something, but he didn’t even look at me. I was about to say something, when the sound of the twins waking came through the monitor attached to my waistband, so I changed directions and went to go and bring them through.

  I was just lifting Dewi out of the carrier when Maya’s Mom, Vivienne, spoke up. “Here, I’ll take the piglet Lasco. You go and help Cole with the babies.”

  I couldn’t help the evil smile that crossed my face at the look of panic that he shot at me. Serves him right for stealing my piglet and Dash. Grudgingly, he got out of the chair and walked slowly over to me.

  “You take Kali,” I nodded over at the baby who was now smiling up at the scared man. After watching him struggle with the buckle, I took pity on him and undid it before quickly walking over to my chair before he could steal it again.

  At that moment, Luke walked through the door and looked around the place, clearly looking for his wife and babies. Seeing me, he headed in my direction smiling until he got about ten feet away, and then the expression on his face turned to confusion and then anger.

  “Why is my kid wearing a dress with bows in its hair?” He growled, staring down at Dewi.

  “Because she’s a girl,” I pointed out the obvious. “Please, tell me you’ve gone past the whole girl thing? I mean, I know Ren is waiting for the balls to drop, but Dewi has been around long enough for you…”

  “That’s Kali,” he snapped.

  “For shame, man. You’re their Dad, and you still can’t tell them apart?”

  “That’s my son,” he growled.

  “Look,” I straightened Dewi’s pink dress, hoping that her Dad’s ignorance wouldn’t scar her later on in life. “I dressed them both myself. I know which one is which, unlike some. I’ll prove it to you.” Boy was he gonna feel stupid. Pulling her diaper away from her stomach, I went to prove to Luke that I was right and froze. “Ah…” maybe I had gotten them mixed up.

  “You’re going to give him gender identity issues at one month old, you asshole,” Luke said, snatching Kali out of my arms.

  “How was I supposed to know? I mean, they’re identical!” I walked up to Lasco and took Dewi from him. His sigh of relief and the instant relaxing of his shoulders distracted me for a second. Oh when his granddaughter arrived any minute now, this was going to be fun to watch.

  “They’re not identical,” Luke snapped, as he walked in the direction of the couch and proceeded to take the bows out of Kali’s hair and started to take the dress off of him. Apparently Kali was enjoying wearing a dress though and let his Dad know this by screaming his tiny little head off, earning me another glare from Luke.

  I was calming a now appropriately dressed Dewi, after putting the bows in her hair, when her Mommy walked through the door. Passing Dewi off to her, I went to go and get a drink and stopped when I saw Coleman standing against the wall, staring at Amy who was looking anywhere but at him. Interesting!

  The excited voices behind me told me that the new parents and baby girl Townsend had just arrived home and dammit I wanted a cuddle with my niece, so I pushed my way through everyone and grabbed the car seat out of Ren’s hand before anyone else could. Lifting the…medium sized bundle out of the car seat, I was shocked by the difference in weight and size between her and the twins.

  “What the hell did you eat while you were pregnant, Maya? People?” I joked, but I was kind of serious. When Ebru and I had babies, I needed to know what not to let her eat.

  “Did you see the size of her ass?” Tony asked, getting an elbow in the ribs from Ebru.

  I never got to sit down and enjoy my niece before the baby thieves walked up to me. The only one who didn’t was Lasco, but he was too busy trying to avoid an amorous Dash and Pippa who was squealing up at him from the floor. Bunch of thieving bastards.

  “So, what are you calling my granddaughter?” Maya’s Dad asked, finally getting the chance to hold her. He was back in my chair and had given me a smug smile when he’d sat down, which promptly dropped off his face when Vivienne placed the sleeping baby in his arms.

  Maya looked at Ren who’s jaw was ticking as he looked down at the floor. “Well, contrary to Ren’s belief that a pair of balls and a penis are going to pop out of nowhere…” Ren turned to glare at her. “We’ve decided to call her Crystal.”

  I was sitting in an uncomfortable chair holding Kali and avoiding Luke, who was standing glaring at me still. Damn, that guy knew how to hold a grudge.

  “So, I hear you had identity issues today,” Ebru said, sitting on the armrest of the chair and smiling down at me.

  “It could happen to anyone!” Why did people not see this?

  “Why have you got the wrong outfit on that baby?” Lasco interrupted as he walked past us, baby free finally. Stopping and frowning, he looked over at Luke who was holding Dewi and shook his head. “Even the damn dad doesn’t know which one is which.”

  “That’s what I said,” I smiled triumphantly at Luke, who looked like he was going to kill both of us.

  After some arguing amongst everyone, mostly the rest of the house against Maya’s Dad and I, it was agreed that Lasco and I were the only ones who got the twins the wrong way round. I was about to put my arm around him and show some solidarity when he turned to Maya and asked, “What’s the number of that place that does the testing?”

  “It’s okay, Daddy,” Maya replied, looking up at him in pity. “I think we already know the outcome.”

  Hurst, who had been having a nap in Ren’s study during all of this, walked through at that moment and went to take Dewi from me. “Wait, why the hell is a little boy wearing a God damned dress?”

  I looked up and met Lasco’s eyes. I’m pretty positive that when his lips moved, it was to say fuck.

  Chapter 9

  Ebru

  W e’d been back at Cole’s house for a couple of hours, and were now lying next to each other on the couch, with my head on his chest watching a movie. Well, he was watching a movie. I was thinking through the events of today and the last couple of weeks. I hated feeling off balance. For as long as I can remember, I knew the dynamics of my family and how it operated and had lived within them. Now, I was being welcomed into a true family, and they were treating me like I was a part of it, a real part of it. The other thing that was unnerving me was how comfortable I was living with Cole, how I actually wanted to touch him while we were out, or that I looked forward to the kisses he’d just drop on me from time to time. After the mess that was my family and losing Lou, I’d never wanted contact with people, I just accepted when I had
to have it. This was all leaving me feeling…unsettled.

  I snapped out of my thoughts when Cole picked up the remote and paused the movie. “Okay, what’s wrong?”

  I wasn’t good at voicing my thoughts and emotions to people, well aside from Lou, so I just shrugged. Apparently this wasn’t good enough for Cole, because he rolled to the side, taking me with him so that he ended up lying on top of me with my legs either side of his hips. I’m not sure if this was to get my attention onto him, but if it was it really wasn’t conducive with that plan. After shifting and wiggling a little bit because it really did feel good, he sighed and held my head with his hands stopping my movements, and stared down into my eyes.

  “Tell me.”

  I’d never coped well with demands or orders so it immediately got my back up, until I saw the concern and genuine interest on his face and it registered with me that he actually cared.

  “I like being an us,” I blurted out and then squeezed my eyes shut. I didn’t expect the gentle kiss that he gave me though, and quickly opened my eyes to see the soft look on his face.

  “I’m glad,” he whispered, giving me a small smile. “I like it too. I also like you living here.” This wasn’t what I’d expected him to say. I mean, didn’t guys like their space? Didn’t they hate clingy women? “Ah, I see that’s shocked you. It’s true, though. I like coming home to you. I like knowing that when you work late, that I’ll still see you when you get back. I like taking your laundry out of the dryer. I like opening my wardrobe and seeing your shit hanging inside it. I like pulling up and seeing your car in front of the house. I like seeing your keys on the table beside the door. I like all of it, but today I loved seeing you surrounded by my family, laughing and having fun.”

  “You’re going to have to enjoy it while it lasts, because as soon as we get the report back from the Fire Marshall about my apartment, I’ll be moving out. I’m sure you’ll like getting your space and privacy back.” The investigation into the fire was taking longer than I’d thought it would. Every day I asked Coleman for an update because he was acting as a liaison between us, and every day I’d get the same reply of ‘don’t know shit yet’. How long did it take?

  Cole was looking unsure as he chewed on his lip and looked down at me. “What’s wrong?” What had I said?

  “What about making it permanent?” he asked hesitantly.

  “What do you mean? Us?” I was no relationship expert, but I was kind of hoping that he was looking at us as permanent anyway. Had I been wrong?

  “That too, but you living here.” I didn’t know what to say back to that. “I know it’s fast, but it isn’t really. And we could look at it as like a see how it goes type thing. You know, take it day by day,” he rambled.

  “I’m not good at this,” I whispered. “I’ve never really been in a relationship.”

  “Well, I haven’t been in one for years, and the last one I had was with a poisonous viper. So, maybe we can learn together?”

  Thinking it over and seeing how hopeful the big dope looked, I decided I was going to live in the moment. “Okay. Day by day.”

  I knew from losing Louise that life was too short, and I realized that I’d never actually just lived, and the huge grin that he was sporting now made it all hit home. I was living. And it was with the most beautiful man inside and out that I’d ever met in my life.

  Cole

  Opening myself up to Ebru like this had been one of the hardest things I’d had to do since the whole Adele incident, but I had been worrying about her finding her a new place to live and moving out since the day that she’d moved in. Having her here felt right.

  I’d lost interest in the movie that we’d been watching, and kept my eyes on the most beautiful female I’d ever seen in my life. The position that we were lying in at the moment was distracting to say the least, so I went to shift off of her begrudgingly, but she foiled that plan by wrapping her legs around my waist.

  “Cole,” I could hardly hear her saying my name she said it that quietly.

  I slowly lowered my head down to hers, giving her time to back out of what was about to happen. What exactly that was I didn’t know, but I was going to let her call the shots on how far we went. When my lips were as close to hers as I could get without it actually being a kiss, she licked her lips grazing mine with her tongue, and that broke my self-control. As soon as my mouth touched hers she opened, and the kiss went from hot to furious in seconds. Our tongues flicked and licked against each other, and then she started to move. I pushed my arms between her back and the couch cushions, hooking my hands around her shoulders and holding her in place. I didn’t want to lose her mouth on mine and couldn’t help grinding my cock into her, swallowing the moan she let out in response. This was without a doubt the hottest moment of my life, and we were fully clothed.

  “Cole, take me upstairs,” she groaned as I ground into her again.

  Keeping her legs wrapped around my hips, I gathered her into me and lifted up off the couch. She hardly weighed anything, so I walked as quickly as I could up the staircase to the bedroom. Laying her down gently on the bed, I tried to lift off of her, but she tightened her legs not letting me move even an inch.

  “Baby,” I shoved my head in her neck. “If you don’t let me go, I’m going to take this further than you’re ready for.”

  “How do you know that I’m not ready?”

  That got my attention, and I lifted my head out of her neck and looked down at her in shock. Ebru kept her emotions closed off, understandably, so it hadn’t even occurred to me that she would be at the same stage that I was at. I also didn’t want to push her into taking the extra steps that she wasn’t ready for, so I needed to clarify what she meant.

  “What exactly are you ready for, Eb?”

  “This,” she raised her pelvis and ground into my cock again.

  “I need to hear the words, baby,” I said, grinding back down into her and almost seeing stars. If we didn’t stop this, it was going to be over long before it started.

  “I want all of you, Cole. Every inch inside me,” she moaned.

  Leaning back, I pulled her tank over her head and then moved my attention onto her shorts, removing them as quickly as I had her top. Standing up, I started to get rid of my own clothes that felt like they were strangling me, leaving her lying on the bed in the sexiest bra and panties I’d ever seen.

  “Apparently white lace is a weakness of mine,” I said, leaning over her and carefully pulling the panties down her legs. There was no way that I wanted to ruin these and deprive myself of seeing them again.

  “Apparently?” she questioned as I threw them over my shoulder.

  “I’ve only just made the discovery,” I looked at her breasts and at how the bra created by the Gods made them look. I really didn’t want to take it off, but I needed her bare to me. “You were already one of my favorite things in the world.” Her mouth tightened at being called a ‘thing’, but I was pretty lost on how else I could describe her. “But you in lace? That’s the definition of perfection.” Her face softened as she looked back up at me, making my decision to remove her bra easier. I wanted her wearing nothing, with that expression directed at me.

  Reaching beneath her, I unlatched the heavenly contraption and leaned back to pull it down her arms. I wanted to just fall on her, but I also wanted her to know how much this meant to me, and that meant that I had to rein myself in and take it slowly. Reaching back under her, I pushed between her shoulders making the upper part of her spine arch towards me. Making sure that I kept eye contact with her the whole time, I lowered my head, taking one of her perfect nipples into my mouth and sucking. I started off softly and then increased the suction until my cheeks hollowed. Ebru closed her eyes, tipped her head back and let out a long, loud moan. Releasing it from my lips, I flicked it with my tongue before moving over to the other one to do the same thing, as she undulated underneath me.

  “Cole, please!” She shoved her hands into my hair and tug
ged, and I decided now was the time to move and discover the other areas of her.

  Kissing down her body, I took the time to sporadically nip and lick to delay my arrival at her pussy, knowing that I needed to get myself under control at the same time. When I couldn't take it anymore, I dragged my tongue down her body, holding her steady with a hand on her hip. When I finally got to her core, I groaned at how wet she was.

  “I need you inside me, Cole,” she tugged again on my hair, but I was a man on a mission now.

  Gently moving her hands away from my head and holding them down beside her hips, I took the first swipe of my tongue up her center and groaned. I’d never tasted anything like it in my life! Her moans had turned into whimpers now, and I was amazed at how close to the edge she was already.

  Licking up and down, I was determined to take my time and to build her up even more. I might be light-hearted to the world, but in bed, I knew what I wanted and was firm about it too. Ebru didn’t know this yet, but she was about to find out.

  When she started tugging on my hair again, I lifted my head and looked up at her. “I don’t mind you pulling baby, but if you’re looking to move me away, I will tie your hands to the bed.” Her eyes widened as she saw how serious I was.

  Holding her eyes as I lowered my head again, I firmly pressed my tongue against her, before sucking her clit back into my mouth. Her hands fell back onto the bed, and she groaned as she arched her back. I could see that she was close and sucked even harder before pushing my finger inside her. Moving it in and out as I sucked hard pulses around her nub, I waited for her to reach the point of no return before thrusting a second finger in as I sucked as hard as I could. Her scream almost made me smile, but the feeling of her pulsing around my fingers snapped what little self-control I had left and smiling was the furthest thing from my mind at that moment.
