chest.
“That was incredible, Luke.”
“For me, too. You never cease to amaze me. I’d never be able to come twice as soon as you did.”
They lay like that a while before the cool air circulated around them and she patted his shoulder. “Our cistern might need refilling soon, but I think I need another shower.” She wasn’t able to get over having dried semen on her yet, but Luke didn’t seem to mind because he loved playing in the shower, too, and cleaning her off after lovemaking.
Later that night, they cuddled in bed, staring up at the stars. This had become her favorite time of the day because they didn’t have to talk, but just enjoyed each other’s presence.
“Sweet Pea? You still awake?”
“Mm-hmm.”
“When’s your most fertile time in your cycle?”
His question took her off guard and she remembered back to when her last period had started, counting up the days. “Actually, this week would be good. Yesterday might have been optimal, but today is still good. Why?”
“Because something tells me we made a baby tonight. So you mark this date down on your calendar and remember to tell the doctor when you go for confirmation.”
She grinned. How could he be so confident, considering that they had had many other days of having unprotected sex without getting pregnant over the past few months? But she wasn’t one to knock anyone’s intuition.
Cassie hoped he was right. Nothing would give her more pleasure than to carry Luke’s baby.
She only hoped she would be blessed in that way someday.
Farewell, until we meet again in future Rescue Me Saga novels and novellas!
Dear Reader,
I hope you enjoyed this glimpse into the lives of these two couples. Before you go on to Roar or whatever is next on your TBR pile, I thought I’d tell you a bit about my plans for the future of these and other characters.
At some point in the future, I’ll write Somebody’s Dream , which will be a continuation of Ryder & Megan’s and Luke & Cassie’s journeys in the Rescue Me Saga, including their plans for the ranch becoming a sanctuary for the wounded. It may be years before I write it, though, because first I need to do a novella about Damián and Savannah. Also before Somebody’s Dream , I want to continue Adam’s story with Somebody’s Hero (which most likely will include updates on Marc and Angelina—unless I decide their continuing journey needs its own novella).
Now that they have come to life even more in Roar , I need to write about Gunnar Larson (with Heidi), Patrick Gallagher (with Maribeth Jeffrey from Roar ), and Mistress Grant (with Liam, the man who had her kicked out of black ops). Their romances will be told inside a romantic suspense trilogy. Each couple will have their happy ending, but there will be a suspense thread carried throughout the three books. Roar will serve as a bridge between these two series.
But I can never predict whose story will come to me next, so please stay tuned to my newsletters! You can sign up for updates (or check to see if you’re already signed up) at my web site: kallypsomasters.com .
Thanks for your ongoing support for my unique way of telling a love story!
