Free If Your Wife Only Knew by Cydney Rax Page B

then whatever she did should last for weeks. But in reality, she knew that a strong marriage needed much more frequent romanticism.
    Kiara threw herself into her husband’s arms.
    â€œI’ve missed you, and I’ve been thinking about the man that I first met when we fell in love. Just hold me.”
    He hugged her too and was impressed. Kiara could be hot and sensuous, and everything she was doing turned him on. He knew she’d cooked a great meal too because he could smell the aroma drifting through the house.
    â€œYou’re amazing. So dope. You really know how to take care of a man.” He picked her up and carried her like they were walking over a threshold for the first time after getting married.
    He gently laid her on the sofa and after she scooted so that her head rested on the big throw pillows, he knelt beside her and gazed into her big brown eyes. She grinned with happiness and sighed.
    â€œYou do love me, huh?” he asked.
    â€œYou know that already.”
    â€œS-sometimes I don’t feel the love.”
    â€œI know and I’m sorry about that. I stay on your ass because I do love you, in spite of everything.”
    â€œYou’re too good to me,” he muttered.
    â€œAnd you’re good to me.” She was thinking about her flowers, which were wonderful. But she wanted more than just flowers.
    â€œHell, I’m not as good as I ought to be. I’m not perfect, but I’m trying.”
    â€œThat’s what’s important. If we both keep trying, we’re going to make it. I believe that.”
    Her voice caught in her throat and she started sniffling.
    â€œAw, damn. Here it comes.” He grinned and kissed the tip of her nose.
    â€œCan’t help it. I may bitch from time to time but when I think about my life, I know I’m mostly blessed. I have a beautiful, bright son who is my world. I feel I don’t even deserve him half the time. And I saw a little baby today after work when I went to pick up groceries, and it made me think.”
    â€œThink about what?” He sprung back.
    â€œRashad, I know we haven’t talked about having another baby in years.”
    â€œKiara, you know I got a lot going on already. It’s not a good time.”
    â€œI know, but when is having a child ever a good time? Sometimes these things are not in our hands.”
    â€œIf we keep a condom in our hands and always roll it on this dick, it is in our hands.”
    â€œYou’re so silly. But, well, if you don’t think we’re ready this year . . . to try again, I guess I will accept it.”
    â€œLook at you. I thought you were so busy trying to be Ms. Super Executive at the j-o-b.”
    â€œI am and I’m doing great. I guess I feel I’m at the point where if I took a short leave of absence to have a baby, it wouldn’t hurt. But sometimes after a woman has a kid, she ends up quitting her job. Or the job forces her out because they think her priorities have shifted.”
    Kiara knew her proposal stunned Rashad. But he was a good father, and perhaps having another child would strengthen the weak parts of their marriage. But if it didn’t work out, she couldn’t totally lose. They made great babies, plus she knew she’d be guaranteed hefty child support for at least eighteen years.
    â€œWhoa whoa whoa. All this talk about babies.” Rashad looked like he had morning sickness and was about to vomit.
    â€œLook, silly, I definitely don’t have any of those scenarios in mind. I was just thinking of Myles. I’ve never wanted him to be an only child.”
    â€œHmmm,” was all Rashad could say.
    Kiara reached up and pulled Rashad closer. He responded to her aggressiveness and gave her a long, sincere kiss.
    â€œIf that’s what you want, we gotta talk about it and make that decision together, all right?” he asked.
    â€œThat’s fine.”
    Kiara closed her eyes as Rashad kissed
