I smile down at her. “I don’t believe that for a second.”
“Stop teasing me. I’m being serious.”
Kissing the tip of her nose, I say, “Open the damn door, Sveta, and let me see what your presumptuous ass has been up to.”
She grins and pushes the door open, and I step into the nursery that she’s put together in record time. I turn around, taking it all in, amazed yet again at the woman I’ve fallen so hard for. A white crib with pinkbedding sits in the corner, and next to it is a comfortable-looking rocking chair and ottoman that’s going to make nighttime feedings so much more comfortable. The walls are a soft shade of pink, and she’s painted little bunnies and other woodland creatures all around the room. There’s even a large unicorn by the window.
“This is incredible,” I tell her, still looking around at all the hard work she’s put into this. “I shouldn’t be surprised that you managed it, because I learned long ago how amazing you are, but, truly, Sveta, this is beautiful.”
A pretty pink blush heats up her cheeks at my praise, and she tries to hide it by kissing Samantha and then setting her in her new crib so she can kick at her piano and watch the mobile of colorful little dogs circle around overhead.
“My family helped me with everything. My dad and Val put the crib together, and my mom helped me with the walls.” She gives a soft laugh. “You should’ve seen my dad. He went on and on about putting together Luka’s crib and how we were all supposed to buy the same kind and how the companies make them impossible to put together on purpose just to try and make you go crazy. Val and I got a good laugh out of it. We eventually had to call my uncles to come help.”
“I’m truly sorry I missed that.”
She smiles up at me. “I took videos.”
“I can’t wait to see them.” I smile at knowing I’ll have some fun entertainment to watch later and run my eyes over the stuffed toys and changing table.
“You did an amazing job, Sveta. Samantha is so lucky to have you.”
Her immediate reply is, “She’s lucky to have you. We both are.”
“You break my heart in the best way possible when you say things like that.” Stepping behind her, I kiss her head and wrap my arms around her stomach as we both watch Samantha. She looks happy, truly happy and loved, and that’s all I ever want for her. Nuzzling my face against Sveta’s neck, I breathe in her scent and kiss her soft skin.
“She needs a sibling,” I tell her.
“You think so?”
I smile and nip at her ear. “I do, as soon as possible, too. I mean, we already have a nursery. There’s plenty of room in here for another crib.”
“It might be worth it just to see the look on my dad’s face when I say I need him to help put together another one.”
I don’t let her detract me with her jokes. I kiss her skin, nipping and sucking, and when she feels me growing hard, she pats my hand and tries to wiggle away.
“Not so fast. Those stitches haven’t healed yet.”
“I came up with a plan for that.”
She gives a soft laugh. “I bet you did. Let me guess, it involves me on top and you lying perfectly still?”
“It’s like you can read my mind,pcholka.”
When I start to unbutton her jeans and pull her away from the crib, she shakes her head and scoots out of reach. “It’s time for you to take a nap.”
I laugh and hook a finger into the pocket of her jeans, bringing her up against me again.
“Don’t strain yourself, Vitya!”
“You worry too much.”
“I’m being serious.”
“I know you are. That’s why it’s so cute. Come on. I’ll lay down, and I promise I won’t move.”
She narrows her eyes at me. “What’s the catch?”
“No catch. I just need you to hover your sweet pussy over my face.”
