EPILOGUE

Knox

ALMOST ONE YEAR LATER.

“Hurry up,” I whisper-shout as Hazel shuts the door. “Lock that.”

She rolls her eyes but does what I didn’t really ask. “You’re being ridiculous.”

I scoot to the edge of the bed, then plant my feet on the floor. “Am not. You have no idea how drastically our life is about to change.”

“Don’t you think you’re being a little dramatic?”

“No!” I wiggle out of my shorts, my cock standing straight up in my lap, pointing at the ceiling. “The simple fact that she called my siblings should be enough for you to understand the severity of the situation.”

“Knox. Cubby. I love you with my whole entire heart, but right now, you’re acting like an idiot.”

“Says the woman who purposely wore a sundress and no panties to take me to the ER.”

Hazel glares at me as she lifts said sundress to reveal that pretty little pussy. “Well, I can’t help that. You’re the one who threw them over the railing, the railing you had me bent over while you plowed into me. It’s your fault we’re even here!”

“Which is why I want that door locked. I’m going to finish what we started and make it up to you in one shot.” I snake my arm around her waist and pull her down on my cock in one move. We both groan as Hazel loops her arms around my neck and wraps her legs around my hips. “Although, if you hadn’t told me that you stopped your birth control, I probably would have been a little more clear-headed when we started fucking on Da’s boat.”

“Hardly,” Hazel moans as I grip her ass and start rocking my hips. “That was... mmm... that was bound to happen sooner or later...”

She’s right.

Hazel and I got married the same night I retired from the CFA, right there in the middle of the octagon I just won my title back in. Since my whole family was in town and Noah is an ordained minister—which happened when he decided to officiate Blake’s wedding—we decided not to wait, and I made that shit official. We even consummated our marriage in the shower of my locker room—the first, last and only time I’ve ever had sex at a fight, and since then it’s been game on.

Hazel and I fuck like rabbits everywhere and anywhere we can, my boat included.

It was only a matter of time before something happened, whether it was us getting caught or something like, I don’t know, me getting so excited that my wife stopped taking her birth control so we can start a family that I forget to drop anchor and nailed her from behind right there on the starboard bow while we crashed into shore.

Which is exactly what happened.

It wasn’t a terrible crash, but it was enough to send us both over the edge—of the railing, not orgasmic bliss—and when I grabbed onto Sunny and used my body to protect hers, I landed on my recently replaced shoulder and screamed like a little bitch. Hazel rushed me to the ER, called my mother and while I understand why she did it, my sunshine opened a huge can of worms because of it.

“Knox...” Hazel moans. “Knox, honey, yes. Just like that.”

“You like that? Like when I fuck you hard? Make you come all over my cock?”

“Yes,” she hisses. “Yes, Knox, fuck me hard.”

I get to my feet, keep my dick buried inside of my wife and while I know she loves it when she’s on top, I lay her out on the hospital bed, lift her legs and rest both of her calves on my good shoulder and slam into her.

“Oh. Oh. My. God!” Hazel’s pussy chokes my cock. “Yes! Knox, Knox I’m gonna come.”

Me too.

My thrusts quicken, my balls draw up fucking tight and just when Hazel grabs a pillow and screams out her release, her cunt gushing while it squeezes the life out of me, I shatter.

I come my goddamn brains out just like I do every time we make love, and somewhere in the back of my mind, I have a feeling we just made a baby.

“Knock, knock!” My mother calls out as she pounds on the door. “Knox? Hazel? Why is the door locked?”

I quickly pull out as my sunshine does some crazy ninja roll off the bed, rounds it even faster, and helps me get my shorts back on. Then I’m hopping on the bed while Sunny waddles to the door, thighs squeezed together in an attempt to keep my cum from running down her legs. She glares at me when I laugh, straightens her dress, checks her hair, then opens the door.

“Sorry, Knox needed my help going to the bathroom.”

I frown as she smirks.

Minx.

“No problem, dear.” Ma smiles, totally oblivious. “We brought dinner.”

Blake and Aggie come strolling in behind her but slow down, both frowning as they do.

“Gross,” my sister says as she glares at me.

My brother smirks though, nodding in approval. “Nice.”

I crack up as my wife blushes and shuffles to the bathroom like a constipated penguin. “I’ll be right back. I need to freshen up.”

“Still my hero.” Blake grins as he drops onto the chair next to me. “Crash a boat and almost break a hospital bed? That shit’s good enough to write about.”

“Another idea for one of your books?” Ma, still totally clueless, asks. “My club loved the last one.”

“Yeah, Ma.” Blake rolls his eyes. “I take inspiration from real life all the time.”

“What?” She blinks.

“Nothing.” Aggie sighs as she starts unpacking food. “So how bad is the damage?”

I can’t stop grinning even though my news isn’t great. “Boat should be easy enough to fix. Nothing too bad.”

“I meant your shoulder, perv.”

I shrug my good one. “Don’t know yet. Doc is reviewing my scans.”

“Well, I think it’s a sign,” Ma says as she starts cutting up my food like I’m a toddler. “I think this is Da’s way of saying you and Hazel should move out to Georgia with me and your brother.”

I totally agree, but I’m not going to tell her that yet.

Hazel and I have already started looking for houses in Atlanta, found a couple we like that are close to Blake and Sid, close to the house I know my mother bought but hasn’t said anything about yet. I’m kind of waiting to see what Aggie does before we pull the trigger.

She’s been homesick for a while now but she’s got a lot going on, stuff no one knows about but me and Blake and depending on what happens, there’s a good possibility my sister will become an Atlanta native again before Hazel and I do.

We’ll see though. Don’t want to get too excited about our whole family living in the same place for the first time in years just yet.

“We’ll just have to see what happens.” I smile as Hazel walks back into the room and comes to sit on the edge of the bed next to me. “Never know what could happen between now and then.”

Ma’s head snaps in our directions “Are you, you mean, oh my god, are you?— “

“Not yet.” Hazel smiles, playing with the hair at the nape of my neck. “But we’re trying.”

My mother starts bawling, totally comes unglued, while my brother slaps my leg, and my sister gets all misty eyed.

“Oh my god!” Ma sobs. “I’m gonna be a grandma again!”

“Jesus, Ma.” Blake laughs. “You’d think this was your first and not your sixth.”

She flaps her hands and wipes her nose on one of her million scarves. “It’s practically my seventh! I can’t wait to have all my grandbabies in one place, my kids all together again.”

I glance at Aggie, my sister crying a little, but I’m not exactly sure why. Something about what my mom said, though, that’s what has her emotional. We’ll talk later, I’m sure.

“Let’s eat.” She sighs.

“Georgia is sounding better and better, huh?” Hazel whispers as she leans toward me and kisses my temple. “Sounds a little like home?”

I smile up at my wife, the soon to be mother of my children, then kiss her cherry red lips. “You’re my home, Sunny. Wherever you are is home.”
