All of You (77 page)

Oh, fuck…

“Let me hear you break apart,” he begged breathlessly, his body still mindlessly driving into hers. “Come all over me, Kat…please, baby…show me you’re mine, sweetheart.” Kat cried out with the beginning of her orgasm. “And then I’ll come inside you so hard and show you that you are
all mine
.”

“
Danny!
”

Her fingers digging into his biceps, her body contracting rhythmically around his dick for a second time, and the sound of his name filling the room like a whispered chant, Danny finally let go.

With a shout of her name and a guttural noise that sounded more animal than man, he shattered inside of her, his dick continuing to thrust into her hard again and again as he poured himself into Kat…as he gave her everything he had: body, soul, and heart.

Danny’s ejaculation ended,
but he remained inside of her – head hanging limp and his eyes closed – which suited Kat just fine.

She wiggled a little beneath him, a smile tugging at her lips. “I like the way you feel in my vagina so much I wish I could just walk around all day with you in there, Danny.”

Danny lifted his head slowly, eyes wide. “
What the…
” He huffed. “Kat, give a man a break, would you?” She wiggled again, grinning, and he groaned. “Let me try to recover from one mindfuck session with you before you start another damn one, okay?”

“But it just feels so good, even after I have an orgasm.” Kat contracted her vaginal muscles around him, loving the way it made Danny’s mouth drop open. “Actually, it feels
really
good. I’m thinking it might be all the residual nerve ending and G-spot stimulation. You know, I was never quite sure if the thing actually existed, but I now feel comfortable saying – with near certainty – that it does. Because I swear to God you hit it every damn time, Danny.”

Danny groaned again.

“Did you know it’s actually called the Gräfenberg spot and it’s thought to be connected to female ejaculation and-”

Danny slowly pulled himself out of her and rolled off.

“Where are you going?”

“I’ve gotta get my dick out of you before round two happens way sooner than either of us are ready for,” he replied gruffly.

Danny wrapped his arm around Kat’s waist and pulled her into a spooning position up against his front. He grabbed a handful of the comforter and covered them both.

“I didn’t hurt you in any way, did I, Kat?” He tightened his arm around her. “I got a little rough there at the end, sweetheart. I’m sorry. I got inside of you and lost it a little.”

“No, of course not. I would have said something.” Kat nestled against him, wiggling until they were as close as they could get and wrapped her arms around his arm. “And I think that position was actually better than what I had planned because you had to do most of the work.”

“What in the hell did you have
planned
?”

“I wanted to stare at your body for a while, touch you everywhere, and then ride you with your back up against the headboard – me holding onto the bars,” she replied.

When Danny didn’t reply, Kat twisted to look at him. She found Danny staring back at her, brows low and mouth open. “What?”

“Was your plan to kill me slowly, then, Kat? Oh, and FYI, you wouldn’t have made it past staring, anyway. About two minutes of that and I would have either come or jumped on you way before you got a chance to touch me, let alone
ride me
holding onto the headboard –
Jesus
 – your tits bouncing around in my fucking face.”

Kat turned back in his arms with a shrug and settled in. “Okay, well, next time. But I wanna do it soon because a few nights ago, while I was flipping through the channels in the middle of the night, I saw this movie where the woman did something similar to the man and it looked like a lot of fun.”

“You were watching
porn
?”

Kat paused. “No, I don’t think it was actual porn. I think it was more like one of those Skin-A-Max things I always used to catch Stella and Fi giggling at when we were teenagers. You know, sex stuff going on, but nothing too insane. I never used to pay attention to them, but now, after doing it, I can see what the fuss is about. But it was not a good idea to watch that while we were apart, Danny. At all. Because all it made me want to do is drive over here and jump on top of you.” She shrugged again. “Kinda wish I would have now, but oh, well. Better late than never, right?”

“
Jesus Christ…
” he breathed out against her ear. “The fuck, Kat?”

She huffed, twisting to face him again. “What did I say now?”

Danny stared at her for a few more seconds before shaking his head, and tightening his hold. “Nothing, sweetheart. Nothing. But all I’m gonna say is we better take out a hefty life insurance policy on me after we get married. Because I have a sneaking suspicion you and your crazy sexiness are going to kill me sooner than later.”

Kat nestled back against his body and held onto the arm Danny had wrapped around her. After a brief pause, she scoffed softly.

Danny tightened his arm. “What?”

“Oh, nothing. Just thinking how difficult it’s going to be to maintain a long distance relationship. You know, when you move…to
California
.”

Danny brushed his lips and stubbled jaw against the side of her neck before licking at her a few times. “I’m not moving anywhere but inside of you again,” he whispered against the dampened skin, causing Kat’s breath to catch and her body to shudder. “You know damn well I never would have been able to stay away from you, Kat. I might’ve moved out there, but it never would have lasted. Being near you is as crucial to me as breathing…and because – even though it would have hurt like hell to be close to you and not have you – that would have been easier to take than being away from you, sweetheart. That would have fucking
killed
me.”

Kat backed into him just a little bit more, clutching his arm. “Well, all of that’s moot, anyway, because I never would have let you go.” She smiled. “You really should have let me say a few more things before you stripped down, Danny, because I was all prepared to get on my knees and beg you to forgive me and take me back.” She reconsidered. “Well, I probably couldn’t have gotten on my knees – too much weakness right now – but I was definitely going to grovel.” Kat lifted a shoulder. “But you were too impatient, so you missed out on the only begging you ever would have gotten from me. Bummer.”

“Nah, I’m gonna hear you beg plenty over the next fifty years or so, sweetheart,” Danny whispered against Kat’s ear, wiping the smirk off her face and setting off more shudders, shivers, and goose bumps. “But it’ll be the good kind, where what you’re begging for is exactly what I’m dying to give you.”

His hand found her breast and began kneading gently as Danny continued licking/nipping/sucking/rubbing her neck and shoulder. Kat moaned when the pad of his thumb began stroking her nipple.

She shook her head. “Before you get me so I can’t think properly, again, there’s one more thing I have to…get…straight…so…” Kat’s words trailed off as Danny scooted back, allowing her to fall onto her back next to him.

He slid on top of her, their eyes locked and his hands coming up to bury themselves in her hair. “You better get it straight now, Kat…” Danny eyed her lips, his own curling in that way of his that never failed to make her heart trip over itself. “Before I pin you up against that shower wall and make you scream
my
name, but forget your own…what is it you want to get straight, sweetheart?”

Kat gripped his chin and leveled her gaze on him. Hard. “
No. SWAT
.”

Danny’s brows dropped. “No SWAT?”

“Yeah. No SWAT. Not in L.A. and not here.” Kat narrowed her eyes. “
No. SWAT. Not now and not ever. Period
.”

Danny shrugged. “That’s fine by me. Nathan doesn’t have any interest in SWAT, nor would Stella allow it, and I have no interest in working without him.” Danny winked. “But more importantly, if the little missus says
no
, then that’s the end of it. Or at least that’s how I see things going around here, sweetheart…because you’ve got me wrapped tight around that gorgeous little finger of yours, you know that, right?”

“Well, I like the sound of that,” Kat replied, making him laugh.

“See? I’m the perfect husband already.”

Kat cradled his face, the intensity of her gaze fading Danny’s grin. “I have no doubt you will be the perfect husband and the most amazing father ever, Danny.”

He paused. “God, I want to make a baby with you, Kat. So fucking bad.” Danny dropped his mouth to hers and kissed her deeply, before pulling back and whispering against her lips, “Can we start on that tonight, sweetheart? Right now? Please?”

Kat laughed.
“Caro
, I’ve been on the Pill for years. When we’re ready to start trying, I’m going to have to stop taking it and let the residual effects wear off.”

“Well, then stop taking it now. Tonight, okay? Because I wanna knock you up so fucking bad it’s not even funny.” Danny paused. “Wait, how does that work with the MS?” A worried expression crossed his face. “Is that even a good idea? What if something goes wrong? Is it dangerous for you? For the baby?” He blew out a hard breath, gripping the back of his neck. “We’ll have to see specialists. And read books. And we’ll have to do yoga.”

Kat quirked a brow. “You’re gonna do yoga?”

Danny snorted. “Fuck, no. But I’ll drive you to yoga class and sit there and make sure they don’t have you doing anything crazy. And to make sure you’re okay the whole time. And then drive you home.”

Kat studied his serious, concerned expression and shook her head slowly. “Maybe we should wait a while for a baby, Danny, so I have time to mentally prepare. Because I now know for certain that you will be driving me, everyone around us, and probably the poor fetus crazy the entire nine months. Not to mention the madness you’ll slip into after the baby is born.” She scoffed. “If it could tear someone like Nathan to emotional shreds, just think what’s it’s going to do to you. And God forbid, it’s a girl.”

“I can keep my cool when I have to. I’m a fucking police officer, for Christ’s sake,” Danny replied.

But the poor man’s facial expression was anything but
cool
. Danny looked like he was already mentally preparing to head-on tackle the responsibility and commitment of fatherhood and they weren’t even married yet.

Wonderful, crazy, beautiful man.

“You’ll be incredible with all of it, Danny.” Kat wound her hands around his neck, wrapped her legs around the backs of his thighs, and lifted her pelvis to meet his. When his eyes glazed back over and dropped to her lips, Kat licked them – eliciting a low growl from Danny. “But for tonight, I am very, very interested in getting back to the shower scene you promised. That okay with you?”

Danny rolled off her, off the bed, and then reached back to grab her. A few seconds later, Kat was up in his arms as he raced toward the bathroom – giggling, clinging to him, and so happy she could hardly believe it was all real.

Two months later…

“Y
our adorable groom
sent you something, Kat,” Stella said as she and Fi sailed into the small anteroom carrying two trays of Dunkin Donuts coffees and a large DD bag. “Actually, he sent stuff for all of us, but yours comes with a special little note.”

Nerves already frayed, emotions running higher than she approved of, and – for the one-millionth time – cursing her sisters for talking her into this whole wedding fiasco, Kat’s eyes welled as Stella handed her to the note.

Stella set a coffee and a chocolate chip muffin on the dressing table in front of Kat and walked off to distribute stuff to the other sisters.

Kat looked down at the white envelope and, with shaking hands, slowly ripped it open. She set the envelope aside and slid the card out as the tears she’d successfully held back all day finally spilled down her cheeks.

Printed in simple black script, the card read:

I Can’t Wait to Marry You Today.

Kat opened the card and – just as she’d suspected – what was written inside, in Danny’s messy chicken scratch, did nothing but increase tear production…and make her want to wail into Nonna’s
something old
handkerchief.

Dear Kat,

I’ve been waiting thirty-three years for this day. I can’t believe it’s finally here. I can’t believe that pretty soon I get to be your husband. I never thought anything this amazing would ever happen to me and I love you so much. I can’t wait for you to be my family…my wife.

MY WIFE. My two favorite words – today and forever.

Love you more than I could ever say. See you at the end of the aisle, sweetheart.

Danny

Kat closed the now tear-stained card, slipped it back into the envelope, and held it in her lap.

“Good thing you didn’t put her makeup on yet, Fi. You said you needed to wait until you got back from visiting the boys and now I know why.” Carla smiled warmly as she handed Kat a box of Kleenex. “That sweet, huh, Kat?”
