teasing and toying with her body, touching her in the most taboo of places. She had three orgasms before he finally allowed himself to come. Afterwards, he’d taken her to his shower where he spent a great amount of time washing every inch of her body.
Ava reveled in it because in that moment she knew the truth. All that mattered was that Luke loved her. He was the only man with the power to stir her passion in ten seconds flat. To Ava, it was only more proof that they were a perfect fit. Oh, yeah, life with bad boy Luke McGiffin would be one very wild ride.
Later in the evening, as they ate pizza and watched an old John Wayne western, Oreo sleeping soundly in her lap, Jen called. She wanted to let them both know that she and Pete were planning a trip to the Amish country in Northern Ohio. Luke went into big brother mode instantly, demanding that Pete stay away from his sweet, innocent baby sister.
But with a few strategically placed kisses, Ava managed to bring him away from thoughts of bodily harm and onto more pleasant things. Like what it’s like to be at the mercy of one Dr. Doolittle.
Being a good sport, Luke didn’t complain one bit when she insisted on riding him, while he lay tied and blindfolded this time, totally at her mercy.
Afterwards, they both fell into a deep sleep. Monday came way too early.
Epilogue
“A double wedding?” Luke asked.
Ava and Luke were sharing a booth at their favorite pizza parlor with Jen and Pete. It’d been three months since the big makeover.
She’d since moved into his house and had sold hers. Luke was adjusting well to everything, with the exception of Pete and Jen’s relationship. He was still concerned about Pete taking advantage of his innocent sister. If he only had a clue.
“I think it sounds like a great idea,’ Pete chimed in. “And it’ll be cheaper.”
Jen frowned. “Cheaper?”
Pete paled. “Not cheaper, but more… cost efficient. The extra money could go towards new furniture for the house.” Jen’s frown worsened. “And think of all the fun you and Ava will have planning it together!”
Jen’s expression lightened a degree. “It would be a lot of fun.”
she aimed a smile at Luke. “What do you say, big brother?”
Luke pulled Ava in closer to his side and announced, “It’s up to Ava. If she wants a double wedding, then that’s what she’ll get.”
“Sharing the biggest day of my life with my two best friends?
Definitely a great idea.”
Pete leaned over and kissed Jen. Luke cleared his throat, causing Jen to pull away and Pete to grin mischievously. Ava decided now was as good a time as any to share her big news. She’d been looking for the right opportunity and this seemed to be it.
“I have an announcement to make.”
“You’re quitting your job?”
That threw her for a loop. “Why would you think that?”
“Wishful thinking,” Luke growled. “I don’t like you working for that asshole. Every damn time Dr. Ryan is near you, he comes onto you.”
Ava rolled her eyes. “I can take care of myself. Besides, in a few more months it won’t be an issue.”
“He’s got a boner for you, baby, a few months won’t make a damn bit of difference.”
She ignored Luke’s warning and confessed, “I’m pregnant.”
Luke choked on his soda. Jen screamed and began bombarding her with questions. Pete had gotten up to smack Luke on the back.
Ava wasn’t sure if it was to help him breathe or comfort him in his time of need.
After the initial shock wore off the table fell silent. Luke stared at her belly, as if he were trying to see right through to her womb for confirmation. Finally he spoke.
“How far along are you?”
Ava wasn’t sure what to think of his attitude. He was so still and quiet. “Just eight weeks.”
“You’ve been to a doctor?” She nodded. “The baby’s…
healthy?” She nodded again. “I’m going to be a father,” he con-ceded. Finally, Ava found her voice.
“And I’m going to be a
