Chapter 39

Hannah

Six Months Later

“I don’t need you to hire a housekeeper or whatever you call a female butler!”

Tobias takes the water glass out of my hands and looks down at me with sensual eyes. Tall and muscle- bound, with a deceptively seductive smile. Gosh. Is it hot in here? He is basically walking sex.

“I don’t want you to put a strain on yourself, and that will happen since you’re carrying around the largest belly I’ve ever seen and refusing to take it easy.”

“The house needed cleaning!”

Tobias sighs. “Our life would be much easier if you let me hire this housekeeper. You wouldn’t have to move a muscle, and I wouldn’t have to go to work worrying about you.”

“I can still do basic tasks. I’m not that big…”

Tobias’s eyelashes flicker down, and his smile grows when I pout at him. We both know I’m huge, but my pride doesn’t allow me to admit it. Tobias won’t repeat himself, either.

Instead, he looks amused. “No, of course not. How silly of me. My wife is as tiny and fragile as a flower,” he steps closer, sliding a hand to my stomach. His lips stifle a laugh. “The bump isn’t visible at all.”

“You’re damn right it’s not.”

“Which is a shame… you know what I think about pregnant women.” Heat spreads between my legs as Tobias strokes my skin. He is gentle, but his eyes are dark. “Do you remember this morning?”

I slowly inhale. “I do…”

Tobias woke me up by going down on me, and he wouldn’t stop, no matter the sounds I made. He kept going until I wanted to escape, but I couldn’t since my belly was in the way. In the end, I came so hard that my vision momentarily flicked.

Goddamn it.
