Chapter 292 - As Long as Youre Happy (2/2)

Her cheeks heated, even more, she could feel the burning all the way to her ears now. ”For... for the milk... Some... sometimes it leaks...”

”You're a brėȧstfeeding mother, it's to be expected is it not?” His focus didn't leave her brėȧst as he gave it a light squeeze causing more milk to squirt out. Dodging one gush, he chuckled and squeezed it again. ”It's quite fascinating actually...”

She didn't need to see a mirror to know her cheeks were blazing red. ”You mean... you're not grossed out by it?”

Rin met her worried gaze, holding her eyes as he lowered his mouth to her nɨppŀė. He flicked his tongue across its hard swollen peek before tracing the Ariola teasingly. ”Grossed out? No, nowhere close. You're the mother of my child, my wife, my love, my life. There is nothing about you or your body that could ever gross me out.” To drive his point home he suċkėd her entire nɨppŀė into his mouth and gave a generous suckle. Lifting away, he licked his lips. ”Um, sweet... Might have some on my corn flakes later.” He said with a wink. He shifted back up to her face and placed a kiss on the tip of her fire-engine red nose. He hadn't seen her blush so deeply since the first time she'd seen him in a speedo at one of their high school swim meets. He slid his hand away from her brėȧst as he lowered his lips to hers letting his fingers explore the new soft swell of her body, enjoying the leftover baby weight.

When his hand slid under the silky gown and up the inside of her thɨġh, she let out a loud mȯȧn. ”Rin!” She panted, arching into his touch. But before his fingers could reach their destination, a cry rang out in the room. Rin froze in place, his eyes wide as if being caught doing something he shouldn't. Shelly sighed as she wiggled out from under him. ”The baby... He must be hungry...”

Rin pressed her back down into the bed and placed a light kiss to her lips. ”I'll bring him to you.”

Her eyes were glued to the tent of his pajama pants as he shifted and raised from the bed. ”You know... they say it's almost impossible to have sėx after having kids... unless you have trusted people you can leave them with every now and then... or if... say you lived with them... ya know, those trusted people...” She watched with appreciation as he bent over the crib and lifted their tiny son.

Rin masked a smile as he carried the baby to the bed. ”Are you talking about staying with Jos again?”

”Only until we can find our own place... preferably on the island... near them...” She whɨnėd as she held her arms out for the baby.

He nodded as he lowered Cameron down into her arms. ”I see... And you're convinced you and the baby will be safe?”

Shelly nodded as she guided her nɨppŀė to the baby's mouth. ”I know we will be. I know what you must think after finding out exactly what she is... it was a little weird for me too, but I've seen her at her worst. I've seen her completely not normal self, and I'm telling you she's always recognized me, Russ, Raven... Arei... She loves us and would never hurt anyone she cared about.”

He arched his brow. ”And you don't think it's weird living with the man she left your brother for?” He asked as he sat down on the edge of the bed.

She let out a huff of laughter. ”Rin, who do you think I've stayed with the entire time you were... gone? It was Jos and Arei. Hell, we all three slept together most of that time!”

His brows furrowed. ”Wait, you what?”

Shelly rolled her eyes. ”It wasn't like that. I was in wolf form the entire time. And it's not like they ever did anything with me in the room.” Another thought came to mind as she thought of his words. ”Besides, she and Arei were together way before Russ and I was even born... and they are great together. You should really give him a chance.”

Rin nodded again. ”If it's what you want... if it's what will make you happy.”

Shelly smiled widely at him. ”It is! Thank you so much, babe!” She cradled the baby in one arm as she leaned forward. He met her lips for a kiss. ”Can we go today?” She asked in excitement.

Rin let out a sigh. ”I don't see why not.”

Her features lit more as she nearly bounced with excitement. ”Awesome, can we leave as soon as we tell Chary and Scylla bye?”

Rin nodded but then froze. ”Wait... Scylla? The Scylla?”

”Yeah. She and Chary are married... I guess... they're a couple at least... Have been for several thousand years I guess...”

His brows shot up in surprise. ”Hum... I guess... learn something new every day...”

Shelly reached out and caught his hand, giving it an excited squeeze. ”I can't wait! I want to help Russ with the girls too! I know Jos will be!”

”Hum... Are you sure? Do they get along still? Seems like a lot of tension there...” Rin remarked.

”Yeah, but she's not going to give up. I'm sure she'll find a way to be of service.” Shelly answered as she pondered the possibilities.

Rin couldn't hide the warm smile that spread across his lips as he pulled her and the baby into a hug.
