I nod as I crouch down to Kennedy, who is clearly in pain. “Are you okay, sweetie?”
“Yes,” she pants. After a few short breaths, she says, “It’s okay for you to stay here. Enjoy your moment. You earned it. I’m sure I’ll be in labor for hours.”
Before I can respond, the ambulance arrives. She’s lifted by Daylen—who won’t let anyone else touch her—and placed onto a stretcher. It peels out with the sirens blaring, leaving me speechless.
A black Escalade then pulls into the stadium, and I load my family into it. I’m about to get inside when DeBurg tugs on my shirt. “Where are you going?”
“My daughter is in labor. I need to get to the hospital.”
His face falls. “Are you crazy? You need to take the podium and accept the trophy. Everyone is expecting you to speak.”
“It’s a fucking football game, DeBurg. Did you not hear me? My daughter is in labor.”
His face tightens. “You need to stay put. You know what’s on the line.”
I put my face in his. “Fuck. You. I lived up to my end of the bargain. Vance stays until he fucking feels like it. I quit.”
At that, I get into the SUV and make my way to the hospital.
She gave birth in the ambulance. When we arrive at the hospital, they’re escorting Kennedy, Daylen, and the healthy baby girl inside.
I run to grab Kennedy’s hand as they wheel her through the doors. Her eyes widen. “Why didn’t you stay at the field?”
I squeeze her hand. “I’m exactly where I’m supposed to be.”
Her eyes immediately fill with tears. “You didn’t have to.”
“Yes I did.” I lean down and kiss her forehead. “I’m here for you.”
She nods as her emotions overwhelm her. “Thanks, Dad,” she croaks out. “I…I love you.”
Tears fall from my eyes. It’s the first time she’s said those words to me since she was a little girl. “I love you too.”
EPILOGUE
FOUR YEARS LATER
FALLON
Hmm, this feels good. I can feel my husband’s scruff between my legs. I think I’m dreaming, and I don’t want to wake up.
I blink my eyes open and realize I’m not. Jett’s face is, in fact, between my legs, and his tongue is running through me.
I spread my legs wider in invitation. When I go to run my fingers through his hair, I realize I can’t. My wrists are tied to the bedposts.
I smile. “You turning the tables on me, Jeffries?” I’m usually the one waking him in a similar manner.
He mumbles into me as he nods and sucks on my clit.
I arch my back in pleasure. “Ahh. Get inside me, Daddy Jett. Let’s make a mess of the bed and each other.”
He lifts his head and licks his way up my body, stopping to spend time worshipping my breasts with his hands, mouth, tongue, and teeth.
“Please,” I beg. “I need you inside me.”
He continues his tongue’s trail up my body as he slides his entire monster cock inside me all at once. My eyes roll back in my head at the always intense sting of his initial possession.
“Fuuuuuuck. So good,” I yell.
