“You sing a song to me about slow hands and taking me home, get me all hot and bothered, and then tell me we have to wait an hour.” She throws her arms out. “Yes! I’m anxious.”

I hum. “I love getting you hot and bothered.” I stare into her eyes.

She cups my jaw lovingly and then grabs my cheeks. Hard. “Then get out of the car,” she demands. I throw my head back, laughing.

I open the door and help her and her dress out. I swoop her up into my arms, and she squeals, holding onto my neck. The bellman comes behind me and grabs our bags. The doors are opened for us when we walk in, and we’re greeted by security.

“Good evening, Agent Roberts and Mrs. Roberts. Congratulations.” My smile stretches across my face hearing those words. Mrs. Roberts. When we get on the elevator, I press the button for the eighth floor and put Addison down. She cocks her eyebrow up.

“As much as I love that terrace, Agent Roberts, unless you plan on sticking your cock inside me out in the open, now is not a good time.” I chuckle at the seriousness in her words.

“I just need to show you something really quick.” I wink at her.

The elevator rises and with each floor, my nerves start to get the best of me. Addison hates surprises and this is a really big one. I close my eyes and take a calming breath. When I open them, the elevator dings. We’re home.

“Aiden, you okay?” Addison stares up at me.

I stand taller and crack my neck. “Yes.” I swallow once and lead her to the foyer. “We’re not up here to go out onto the terrace.” Her eyes dart around as she looks confused.

Just do it, Roberts.

I grab her hand and pull her to the front door. Our front door. When I unlock it and open the door, I glance back at her and smile before pulling her in behind me. I watch her reaction as she takes everything in.

“That looks like…” she says, pointing to her couch but stopping herself, and looks around again. “Is that my…” She stops, taking in her kitchen table. “I’m so confused, Aiden. This looks like all my stuff.” She spins around to me.

My smile grows. “That’s because it is.”

Chapter thirty

I can feel him behind me, watching me stare out the window.

“Do you like it?”

I slowly turn. The swoosh of my dress is the only thing I hear. “What is there not to like?” I reply. I reach down and pick my dress up so I don’t trip and saunter toward him. “Aiden, this place is remarkable. I can’t believe it’s ours. I can’t believe you did all this.” I chuckle when his brows shoot up. “I shouldn’t be surprised. This is just…wow,” I say, looking around. “Didn’t Mack live here?”

“He did,” he replies. “He’s always offered to rent out this place to me since he’s never here and I watch over it anyway. He offered it to me again when he found out we were getting married. We don’t have to stay here if we don’t want to. I only signed a year lease. We can sell our apartments and then decide what we want to do.”

I look at everything. It’s weird seeing my furniture in here. I can’t believe they moved everything today. Aiden walks me from room to room. When we get to Lexi’s, my hand goes over my heart. He made it just like the one at my place. Even her corner with pictures of her parents and brother. “It’s perfect.”

His arms wrap around my waist, linking his fingers at my stomach. I look down and slide my hands on top of his. Baby, this is your daddy. It’s time to tell him.

“Aiden–”

“Wait, there’s more,” he says, stopping me and pulling me back to the living room. He walks me to a set of sliding glass doors. The darkness makes it look like nothing is out there. Aiden holds up a finger and runs to grab a remote. The boyish grin on his face warms my heart. He’s so excited about this place. When he presses a button, lights brighten the other side of the glass doors.

I gasp. “Is that the terrace?” He nods and unlocks the door, sliding it over. We walk onto the same terrace we were on months ago, just through a different door. Nothing has changed out here. It’s the same furniture and decorations. The only thing that’s changed is it’s ours now.

I squeal and jump into Aiden’s arms. “I love it!”

“I’m so relieved to hear that.”

I pull my head back. “Did you think I wouldn’t?”

He shrugs. “I was hoping you would.”

“Everything about today has been amazing.” I shake my head in disbelief. Nothing went wrong. “It’s been unbelievably perfect.” Aiden walks inside and I follow, closing the door behind me. We are definitely having some parties up here, I say to myself, looking back outside as I lock the door.

“Well, at least no one showed up saying I was the father of their child,” he says, sarcastically.
