PART TWO OF THE SERPENT
✥The Rich Girl & Her Bodyguard ✥
She had first told me she loved me at 11:20 as my fingers were busy getting soaked by her. Those pretty coloured eyes begged a man who couldn't love to love her just as hard. Her rosy flushed...

❦Blaise❦ I've been quite restless these past couple of days. The lack of sleep finally catching up to me paired with the slight contractions coming in slow waves was taking everything out of me.
Fortunately, the due date was only a week away but if I'm being completely honest even that couldn't come sooner. The baby was more active than ever before, probably ready to make an appearance but not any more excited than I was to have he or she.
"Sage green or umm...this one seems to be called rainbow pink?" The immediate look of disgust on Octavio's face followed by an eye roll almost made me laugh but knowing I was most likely going to pee in my pants is what reduced it to a pained giggle.
"What? You cannot tell me that rainbow pink doesn't sound absolutely ridiculous. Like pink is not even in the fucken rainbow so how is that even a color."
This time I couldn't help myself and fell into a laughing fit. I couldn't even bring myself to care about the fact that I may have peed in my pants. I shook my head, this man I swear.
As I tried to gather myself and catch my breathe, Octavio couldn't help himself as his lips broke into a mischievous smirk and I swear seeing him smile made me freaken melt. No one should be allowed to look this good putting up nursery curtains.
I carefully got up from the rocking chair Octavio had built for our baby's nursery and made my way over to where he was holding the two different shades of curtains.
I looked at both before finally making a decision, "Let's do sage green."
"Thank god." He answered in what was almost instant relief.
"Alright drama queen put the curtains up now, we still have the changing table to set up." I teased as I turned around to sit back on the rocking chair. I swear my back was going to break if this baby didn't come soon. But before I could step away any further, two tattooed hands grabbed onto my waist and pulled me back into a hard but warm chest.
My eyes immediately closed as I instantly leaned into him. I don't know if it was my overly spiked hormones or if it was just him but whenever Octavio put his hands on me it was game over for me. Nope it's definitely him, blame it on him.
"You sure you don't want to do the rainbow pink baby?"
I didn't even know what he was asking but I nodded in agreement regardless. Honestly whatever got him to hold me for a moment longer.
"I think I fuck with the rainbow pink." He answered and before I could say anything back he brought his hands gently underneath my swollen belly before lifting the weight of our baby into his palms.
The relief I felt was so intense that a soft whimper fell out of mouth. "I knew that felt good." This time I replied with absolutely no words with an exception of a small sigh. My body had sagged against his as he continued to hold our baby while his nose buried into the top of my head.
"You smell so good," He groaned into my hair as he pulled me further into him as if we could get any closer. Our baby rolled into a new position as we continued to stand in the middle of the nursery and I groaned in discomfort. "She's ready to come out, isn't she?"
"Mhmm, I hope so. I don't think I can give up any more space in there." He hummed in understanding while he continued to cradle my belly in his palms.
"You think it's a girl?" I asked as I remembered all the different times he has addressed the baby as a she.
He shrugs his shoulder behind me in a response before answering, "I don't know just a feeling. I would be happy with either though. As long as you both are healthy."
I nodded in understanding while keeping my eyes closed before adding, "I don't think I ever want you to let go for the sake of my back."
I had meant it in a joking manner but he had stilled the slight rocking he had started with his body and dug his nose further into the top of my head.
Thinking he wasn't going to say anything, I opened my eyes to turn around in his arms. Noticing my reluctant movement, he firmly kept me in my previous position.
When I leaned back into him he finally answered, "I'll never let you go again Blaise." I knew exactly what he meant but I didn't comment on it.
I mean there was only so long one could live in the past before it starts souring the future. And as of lately I was looking forward to our future, and I wanted to do so without carrying all the bitter feelings from the past. It was time to move on, for the sake of all three of us.
