But I also know it’s more than love. It’s something that defies the limitations of that single, overused word. It’s a connection that transcends the ordinary, an intimacy that goes beyond the physical.

My parents have planned a backyard celebration for a few of our closest friends, and Alex’s family, but we still have a few hours before we have to be there. We take the time to go back to his place and lose ourselves in each other’s embrace.

Alex wastes no time in pulling me into his arms. His lips meet mine in a hungry, passionate kiss that leaves me breathless. There’s a raw intensity to our connection, a sense that this moment is meant to be savored, cherished.

Our hands explore each other’s bodies with fervor. The weight of our vows, the promise of forever, feels even more significant now. And as our bodies become one, his moans and my whimpers fill the bedroom.

We come together in a cry of ecstasy, completely unravelling as pleasure rips through me, and his orgasm pulsates against my womb.

Exhausted, we collapse onto the bed, panting. Alex pulls me into his arms, and I nestle my head against his chest, finding solace in the steady rhythm of his heartbeat.

“I love you, husband,” I murmur, tracing circles on his chest.

Alex chuckles softly, his fingers gently combing through my hair. “I have to admit, I like the sound of that.”

I raise my head to look into his eyes. “So, husband, how does it feel to be a married man?”

He grins, his thumb caressing my cheek. “Absolutely incredible, wife. I can’t believe I get to spend the rest of my life with you.”

I plant a tender kiss on his lips. “Likewise. Our forever starts now.”

“You know, now that we’re married, we can start trying for a baby.”

I smile softly. “We don’t have to try,” I reply, my fingers tracing invisible patterns on his chest.

His brow furrows in confusion, and he asks, “Have you changed your mind about kids?”

“No,” I say, my voice barely above a whisper. “I haven’t changed my mind because...” I pause, letting the words hang in the air, teasing him.

He leans in closer, his eyes searching mine. “Because what?”

I can’t hold back the smile that spreads across my face. “Because I’m already pregnant. I took a test yesterday, and it confirmed it.”

Alex’s eyes widen, and a mixture of shock and joy washes over his face. He pulls me into a tight embrace, his lips finding mine in a passionate kiss that says more than words ever could.

“We’re going to have a baby,” he says.

“Yes, we are,” I whisper, my heart soaring with happiness.

We lie there in each other’s arms. The promise of a new life, a new adventure, fills the room with a sense of magic and anticipation.

With a contented smile, I close my eyes, snuggled up to the love of my life, and let the warmth of the moment wash over me.

I know that the journey ahead will have its challenges and surprises, but I am filled with an overwhelming sense of gratitude and happiness. Together, we will navigate this new chapter of our lives, hand in hand, and heart in heart.
