Eighteen
Axel
My arms locked behindCharlie’s waist, keeping her pressed against my chest as she deepened the kiss.I knew what we were doing was wrong, but that didn’t make it feel any less right.Kissing Charlie was the only thing in life that made sense, knowing that in my arms was where she was meant to be.
She moaned as she gripped my hair, making me desperate to hear more.I slid my hands down her waist, letting them linger for a second above her ass.I wanted to give her everything she wanted, but I didn’t want to overstep and rush her into anything.
“You’re thinking too much,” she murmured as she broke the kiss.
She reached down and pushed my hands until they were planted firmly on her ass, where she wanted them.I tipped my head back and groaned as I squeezed it while Charlie slowly licked the column of my neck, sending chills scattering across my skin.
“I don’t want to rush anything,” I said softly, opening my eyes to find her watching me with a playful grin on her face.
“We’re not.This is something we both want, so we should stop fighting it and just let it happen.”
My cock hardened at the thought of being inside of Charlie, but the rational part of my head—the stupid one on my shoulders—demanded that I stop and think about this before it happened.
“I don’t think it’s that easy,” I replied gently, not bothering to remove my hands from her ass.“You’re still married, and I don’t know if any of this is even safe for the baby.Jo said you were having contractions all day and you’re getting closer to your due date—”
I stopped talking and frowned when Charlie reached into her pocket and pulled out her phone.She pinned me with a look as she held it in between us and called Jo on speakerphone.
“Everything okay?”Jo asked, the protective mama tone greeting us.
“Everything is fine.No contractions and no signs of labor.”
“Perfect.What’s up?”
“I need you to tell Axel that there aren’t any limitations on what I can do right now.”
There was something about the way she said it that made me suspicious that she and Jo might have already had a conversation about this.I tried to calm myself as my heart raced at the thought that Charlie would be interested enough in sex with me that she would get it cleared medically first to make sure it was safe.
“You can do pretty much anything you want.Trust your body.If something hurts, stop.If you start having contractions or your water breaks, stop.Otherwise, you’re free to have sex if that’s where this is going.”Jo laughed, but I cringed at hearing her be so blunt about sex with Charlie.
“Thank you,” Charlie said, her voice chipper and high.
“No problem,” Jo replied before pausing.“Oh, and Axel?”
