“Ex-wife. Soon-to-be ex-wife.” I groan before giving a quick summary of events. “The school phoned while I was in a meeting saying that Julia hadn’t shown up to collect the kids. By the time I picked them up and arrived home, her car was gone, along with some of her clothes and all her important documents. No note, nothing.

“I rang her parents, and they said she was safe and not coming back. They put the phone down on me. They never had any interest in the children either. Nothing. I tried several times to contact them and her. Nothing. Absolutely nothing. It's been seven months now. She's called me twice in all that time and only then it was because I hadn't yet signed thedivorce papers. The only upside is, she is willing to give me full custody.”

“I don’t know how a mother could do that to her children?” Gemma shakes her head, her eyes sad. Her hands run down my chest.

“She’s evil. She will have no rights to those children. I’ll make sure of that,” I spit out.

"They have you." Gemma rests on top of me, crushing my arm. “Kiss me,” she says after a moment.

Rolling Gemma onto her back, her nipples poking up. I feel a desperate need to suck on one. “Am I not too old for you?”

“No.” She grins. “You’re my daddy.”

I stop and pull away; she has killed the mood. “My children call me Daddy. That is not what I want to be thinking about when I’m lying on top of you, rock hard,” I growl.

“No daddy talk, then?” Her laugh is wicked.

“No daddy talk.” I huff. “Take this off.” I pull her nightie over her head.

“What’s going on between us?” she asks.

It stops me. “I don’t know. My children always come first, you know that, Gemma.”

“I know that,” she says, leaning up on her elbows.

“And you’re the worst cleaner ever,” I smirk.

“I know that,” she smiles, her tongue running over her teeth.

I haven’t answered her question, even though she needs one. Instead I move my way down the bed, opening her legs wide. Perfection looks back at me. I need her now.

"Alex..." she whispers quietly. "What are you doing?"

Kissing her inner thigh, I spread her open and take a long, leisurely lick between her folds, tasting her sweet nectar. Gemma moans as my tongue reaches her clit and circles it. I groan as I enjoy her getting wet with my every suck andtouch. I bring a finger to her entrance and I push it in, teasing her, just as I hear Eden calling me.

"Fuck." In a panic, I jump off Gemma and get dressed as fast as I can. "Sorry," I say, pecking her on the lips. “You better get dressed too."

Gemma nods and pulls her nightie back on, slipping under the covers.

I check on Eden, who’s sitting up in her bed. "I heard weird noises," Her little brows pinch together.

“Sorry, baby. Daddy kicked his toe."

Eden tilts her head, I’m not sure if she believes me. "Did Gemma kiss it better?"

"Yes, she did," I say, lying Eden back down. "Now, try to get some sleep."

I go back to Gemma and sigh. "We'll have to wait until they go for a sleepover at Mum and Dad's."

"They're back soon," Gemma says reassuring me. "I liked what you were doing to me… before… with your fingers." She blushes. Of course, this is all new to her.

"I'm glad." I smile, kissing her. She turns around and I spoon her, sliding my arm around to cup her breast.

CHAPTER SIXTEEN

Alex

Ace and Eden are staying with their grandparents for the night. Gemma and I wait for Mum and Dad to come and pick them up before we share a shower. I love the way the water runs off her body. I'm tempted to take her then, but we have a night out planned and I don't want to ruin it.
