Rebuilding Stone (The Stone Brother Series Book 2) (21 page)

Kerrigan

Our night is coming to an end. I’ve asked Missy and Brayden
to keep Eli. It’ll give Brayden some practice.

This whole day has been perfect. Maddox and I have enjoyed
ourselves so much, especially with our first dance. Who knew Maddox has moves?
I am impressed. All of the guests seem to have gotten along wonderfully. Except
maybe Ari and Brady—she was flirting with him, but he wasn’t flirting
back. Poor Ari. I should've warned her.

I know I’m done for the night, so I go find Maddox, who is
filling Eli’s diaper bag.

“You ready to go?” I ask.

“Oh babe, I’m more than ready,” he says with that cocky
smile of his. His eyes do a sweep of my body. It makes my stomach churn with
anticipation.

We say our goodbyes to our guests, very quickly, I might
add. Maddox was all but running me out of there. We are staying at the Greenbo
Lodge tonight. Thankfully, the drive isn’t that far. When we get there, Maddox
grabs our bags and checks us in.

Our room is decorated nicely. It has a homey feel, and it’s
rustic, which I think might be a theme in Kentucky. I take my bag to the
bathroom to see what each of the girls got me. Molly was right; Kelly got me a
leather corset. Yeah—not happening. Not tonight, and not
ever
. I’ll save it for her if she ever
gets married. Lani got me a red lace corset with garters. It’s sexy, but maybe
not “wedding night” sexy. Molly got me a soft pink nighty. It’s an ice pink
color and very silky. This is a maybe. I pull out Ari’s gift, and I immediately
know this is what I am wearing. It’s a purple see-through nighty that has a
matching panty and bra set. It’s beautiful and sexy, just the way I want to
feel tonight.

Maddox

Kerrigan is killing my dick. He is dying a slow death right
now. Why does she need to put anything on? It’s being ripped off the second she
gets out. Finally, I hear the door crack open. Thank GOD! I watch as she shyly
rounds the corner. Fuck me. She looks beautiful. Hot. She is mine. For the rest
of our lives she is mine. I walk over to her slowly, taking my time and
enjoying the view.

“You look amazing, Kerrigan,” I say and lay a soft kiss on
her forehead.

“Thanks. This is one of my gifts,” she says.

“Mmhmm….” Paying very little attention to her words, I start
kissing her on the neck as I run my hand up her thigh.

I hear Kerrigan inhale, and then slowly exhale. Her breath
on my lips smells wonderful. I’m taking care of my woman tonight. For once,
I’ll slow it down and feel every part of her. I pick her up and walk her over
to the bed. Our mouths are joined the whole time with soft, slow kisses. Enough
to make my heart start pounding. I want to do this right tonight. I lay her
down on the bed gently. I go to her feet, massaging one foot with one hand
while running my other hand softly up and down her legs. I can see she is
trying to close her legs.

“Oh no, you don’t, Kerrigan. I want to see all of you. Don’t
close your legs.”

“Maddox,” she whimpers, and I can’t help but smile. Yes, I
will draw out her anticipation and her orgasm.

I start kissing her leg. I start out at her ankles and make
my way up to her calves. I part her thighs a little wider, and again she tries
to close her legs.

“Kerrigan!” I growl out. She opens her thighs again, and I
can see through her purple panties. My dick is twitching. He is just going to
have to wait.

I continue my kisses up her thighs, stopping to kiss each
side. I kiss again just an inch from where my tongue wants to be, causing her
legs to squeeze my head. I smile because I know she is ready. I’m ready.

I grab her panties and pull them off of her. I can see
Kerrigan shaved a perfect landing strip tonight. Again, my dick twitches. Finally,
where I want to be, I slip a finger inside her, pull it out, and stick it into
my mouth. I love the way she tastes. I can never get enough. I lower my head
and part her thighs as I start to lick. Her taste makes my head buzz and my
tongue gets lost in my wife. After a few moments, I hear her moan out that
she’s about to cum. Well she thinks she is anyway.

I stop because I need to feel her pussy convulse around me.
I want our first time cumming as husband and wife being done together.

“Maddox,” she whimpers again.

“Sorry, babe. Don’t worry. I’m about to make love to my
wife. All night.”

Kerrigan

Maddox is so good at what he does. I had to close my legs
because I could feel the wetness just at his words. His touch nearly sends me
over the edge.

He continues kissing up my stomach, and then sits me up as
he removes the nighty and bra. He sucks on each of my breasts. I admit it’s a
little embarrassing because I’m certain he’s getting some breast milk as he
sucks on my nipples. I don’t know why it makes me uncomfortable. It just does.
I try to back out.

“Don’t, babe,” he says, pulling me back in. Thankfully,
though, he doesn’t stay long and heads up to my neck. He wraps his arm around
me and lays me back down. I look in his eyes as he enters me. I see the relief
and the want in them. With each thrust, his dick scoots me up the bed. It’s
deep and it fills every inch of me. He hikes one of my legs on his back and
slowly keeps thrusting. It feels incredible. I continue looking into his eyes.
They are so dark right now. Beautiful. He leans down to kiss me.

“I love you, Kerrigan,” he says and picks up his momentum. I
wrap both of my legs around his back and enjoy every stroke inside me. I’m
really about to cum this time.

“Maddox, don’t stop. Please.” He better not even be thinking
of stopping again.

“Cum with me, babe.” He says and his speed increases. It
doesn’t take me long to let go. Maddox joins me. He stills and the look in his
beautiful eyes makes me feel like the luckiest girl on the planet.

This is the kind of sex I get to have for the rest of my
life.

Kerrigan

We’ve been back in Chicago for a few weeks now. Or, should I
say, Maddox and I have been back in our
bedroom
in Chicago. My stomach has butterflies just thinking about the things we’ve
done in the bedroom, the bathroom, and even a couple times in the kitchen.
Yesterday, when I was doing laundry, I didn't realize he was home. He quietly
walked up behind me and without a word, dropped my shorts, bent me over, and
drilled me. Just the thought makes me want to cum. No one makes a girl feel
loved and desired the way Maddox does.

Tonight, Maddox and I are taking Eli to Molly and Noah’s. We
are having a date night. Is it bad that we got married before we have our
actual first date?

I’m wearing the sexy red lace corset under my clothes
because I know the night will end with amazing sex.

Maddox

Today was a rough day at work. I love my job, but I hate
people. We got a call from DCFS asking us for an escort in the removal of a
two-year-old boy from his home. I’ve been on these calls far too often, but
today really struck a chord with me because he looked so much like Lane with a head
full of dark black hair and eyes that see through you. The mother was so strung
out she was unaware of what was going on. The father was also strung out and
violent, waving a gun and threatening his son. I’ll admit, when the little boy
was trying to find a place to hide, it killed me. Even at such a young age, he
was able to recognize the danger he was in. He hid because he was scared. He is
the same age I was when my mom left. It made me wonder how scared I might have
been that night.

Fortunately, I have something to look forward to at the end of
the day. Kerrigan and I are going on a date. Let’s face it; any alone time with
my wife is a good day. Don’t get me wrong, I love Eli, but I can’t count the
number of times Kerrigan and I have been interrupted during sex. It doesn’t
help that he is a light sleeper. I’m considering moving to a larger place just
so he can have his own room. Daddy needs his uninterrupted time with Mommy. Oh
man, this kid’s going to have a different kind of abandonment issues.

The weight of the day is lifted when I get home and see
Kerrigan nursing Eli in the rocker. My brothers and I might have had shit
parents, but our children won’t. Kerrigan and Molly are great mothers.

“Hey, babe,” Kerrigan greets me and looks up.

“Hey, wife,” I say, as I walk over to kiss her. I rub Eli’s Buddha
belly, and I let out a little sigh. I love this sight even more today, though I
hate that there are children who don’t have this.

“What’s wrong?” Kerrigan asks.

“Bad day at work.”

“You want to talk about it?” she asks.

“Nah,” I reply, “I’m going to take a shower. Do you need
help packing Eli’s overnight bag for Molly and Noah’s?”

“No, I packed it already. Maddox you need to talk to me.”

“It’s nothing. It was just shit I saw and wish I hadn’t.
Trust me, you don’t want these thoughts in your head,” I say, as I head
straight to the shower.

Later on, we drop Eli off at my brother’s place, and then
Kerrigan and I head for the boardwalk at Lake Michigan.

“Maddox, you’ve been quiet all evening. Please, talk to me.”

I pull her into my side and just keep walking without saying
a word.

“Maddox, talk to me,” she demands.

“I was an escort in a child protective service case today.
The little boy was just two years old. I’m used to these types of cases but the
boy reminded me of Lane. It also made me wonder if I woke up scared and alone
the night my mom left me.”

Kerrigan

Hearing Maddox’s story puts me more at ease about having a
hysterectomy. I am completely fine with just having Eli, but hearing this story
and knowing the type of parents Maddox and I had, I know in my heart that this
boy belongs to us. We haven’t talked about more kids because I thought it was
pointless. I hope Maddox is on the same page.

“Maddox?” I say with a smile.

“Yeah?” He looks at me.

“Can we be his parents?” I ask.

“What?” he asked.

“I believe that you and I have the past we do, so that we
can be parents to children who have been through similar things that we have.
We can relate to him, help him, and give him a home we’ve always wanted.”

“Kerrigan, I don’t know. We don’t have the space. Donna just
offered you a job. Eli barely lets you sleep. It’s a lot to take on.”

Okay, I admit, I have to step back and really think about
this. How can we make this work? We haven’t started looking at houses, but
we’ve been talking about it. Donna offered me a job as her assistant, and it’s
the job I’ve always wanted. The pay is great. Maddox is right, though. Eli
still wakes up all hours of the night, but I think we can do this. Parents work
all the time, and other people have gotten through tougher situations. I don’t
know this boy, but I want him. My heart starts beating out of my chest.

“Maddox, we will look for a bigger apartment starting
tomorrow until we find our dream home. We can get daycare or a nanny, if
needed. Eli won’t always be waking up in the middle of the night. He will grow
out of it. Please, Maddox, I want him.”

Maddox

What in the hell is happening? I thought today was just
another bad day at work. I didn’t think my wife would be pleading with me to
take on a toddler.

“Kerrigan, I don’t think it’s a good idea. Sorry hon’, it’s
just not good timing.” It’s not. We just got married. We want to buy a house
and we are finally enjoying day-to-day life as a family.

“Maddox, listen to me. I want him. What if he goes to a home
worse than the one he was removed from? We can do it, Maddox. Please, I want
him.”

I look at Kerrigan and I see the look of a loving mother
fighting for her child. Shit.

“Let me call Natasha. She was the DCFS worker on the case.”
I am silently praying he went to a perfect loving home.

Kerrigan throws herself into my arms. “Thank you, Maddox.
Thank you!” she says all giddy.

I’m totally screwed here. Kerrigan is going to get her way.
I can’t say no to her.

I call Natasha and was informed that he was taken to an
emergency placement home. That means he could be moved again and again. It
could take years to find him a forever home. It makes my decision even easier
for me. Natasha said she could do emergency placement with us and do trainings.
She also said that the parents would more than likely sign over custody because
they want law enforcement out of their lives. If they don’t, it could be a
lengthy, two-year process. She also mentioned of the possibility that the
parents will get the help they need, and the child will be returned. We set up
a meeting with Natasha tomorrow morning to do an initial training. Shit. In a
couple of days, I’m going to be a father of two.

On our drive home, Kerrigan is going on and on about all the
things we need to buy. Yes, it looks like it’s happening. When we get home, I
will need a drink. I’m nervous. I know I’m a good father to Eli, but will I be
to this little boy? Will I love him the same way I love Eli? I don’t think that’s
possible. I sit and think about it for a while. I think about Brayden and how
he loves Cade. Brayden has accepted Cade as his own. I can do this. I will do
this. It’s what Kerrigan wants. Besides, the thought of Eli having a brother
like I did makes me happy. I am so deep in my thoughts that I didn’t notice
Kerrigan is standing between my legs.

I look up, and
holy
hell Batman
, I see a sexy red corset wrapped around my wife’s beautiful
body. It’s like a gift, waiting to be opened.

“I just wanted to show my husband how thankful I am.” She
smiles.

“If you wear nothing but this for the rest of my life, I’ll
get you a million kids.” It’s true. Shit. I’d give her whatever she wanted.

Kerrigan laughs. “Alright. The girls and I are having a girl’s
night out at Hansons tomorrow night. Can I wear this?” she teases, and it makes
me crazy.

I growl and stand up with force and pick her up. “Only me
Kerrigan. Only I get to see this. Forever.” I start kissing her neck. I decide
to mark it because she just reminded me she’ll be out with the girls tomorrow
night. No fuckface will come near her.
