Forbidden Heat R18

The challenge of having a child was that it became a little bit more difficult for us to have alone time together. We were both very aware of this and made active decisions to manage our time between raising our child, working, and having time for each other. This wasn’t difficult because we had the luxury to hire helpers to help take care of our son when we wanted free time to be alone with each other.

Although being with our son was enjoyable, having a breather like this when I was out on a date alone with Edward was a good change of pace. It truly reminded me of the times we spent together before we got married and before our son was born. To stay sane and add some spice to our marriage life, we usually go on vacation twice a month on top of regular evening dates.

“It would’ve been great if you’ve told me earlier that we were going to a ski resort,” I muttered a slight complaint as I sat next to Edward in the passenger seat of his car.

We were on our way to one of our weekend getaways together. Edward fully took charge of arranging this event and had kept the details a secret from me until the last moment. We took turns surprising each other with various destination and activities for our trips. This time it was Edward’s turn. Needless to say, he was much better than me at arranging surprises and planning out extravagant trips.

“How could it be a surprise if I told you in advance?” Edward asked as he laughed a little at me.

He had a valid point but still…

“I don’t know how to ski,” I said bluntly.

“Lucien didn’t do such a good job at being a father, did he? He didn’t even bother teaching you how to ski…” Edward jokingly complained.

“Stop saying things like that…” I answered, annoyed.

“The view is amazing and so is the hotel facility. So, we can just be lazy bums and stay in the hotel. There’s no need for us to go skiing,” he said, completely relaxed and in a good mood.

“I’d like to play in the snow…” I said wistfully.

Unfortunately, I wasn’t the adventurous type and learning how to ski didn’t interest me at all. I was too drained from juggling work, taking care of my husband and my son to have the energy to pick up a new sport.

While I listened to Edward tell me about his new project at work, a part of my mind started planning how I would bring up the topic of having more children with him. This trip seemed like the perfect opportunity to broach the idea. I just need to figure out how to start this discussion with him and suck up some courage to bring it up.

After all, I didn’t really have anything to lose, did I? If he didn’t want any more children or if he didn’t think it was the right time, we can always discuss this again if ever he was ready or wanted.

Despite how much I encouraged myself to just spit it out and have a straight and honest conversation with Edward, it was difficult. Time went by as we enjoyed the trip and still, I wasn’t able to bring that topic up. There was always the risk that bringing it up would completely ruin our trip if Edward did not agree or if he just hated the idea.

The more I thought of it, the more courage I lost.

It was during one of the evenings at the ski resort that we decided to hop into the private hot spring together. The semi-outdoor setting of the hot spring was supposed to be the key selling point of this resort. It was like we were outside, but we still have privacy. The warm water contrasted with the cold air; it was such a unique experience.

We made small talk and just enjoyed each other’s company. To be honest, I was too nervous and focused on bringing up the topic of making more babies that I couldn’t remember what we talked about at all.

“I might have to go on a business trip abroad. It’s not finalized yet, so I’ll let you know,” Edward said as he smiled apologetically at me. I didn’t think he needed to apologize for going off to work though.

“Don’t worry about us, we’ll be fine. There are so many people to help me out. You should go out there and do whatever you have to do,” I replied as I smiled at him.

Perhaps it was the white snow background and the gently falling snow that contrasted against his dark hair, but I felt like Edward looked so much more better looking. I never thought that was possible before. I bit my lower lip and then I grabbed his hand under the water and squeezed it. It was like, I was borrowing his courage…

“Natalia?” Edward called my name softly, surprised at my abrupt action.

“Edward…let’s have more children…” I blurted.

Edward froze in place as he looked at me in shock with his mouth hung open. Then, I realized that I had said it wrong.

“No no…I mean…I do want to have children with you…but I was meaning to ask if you wanted to, you know, if you wanted to have more children…” I tried asking again. Although, I think I still made a mess of it this time.

Edward was silent as if still recovering from his shock and then he abruptly grabbed my shoulders, turning to face him. We stared at each other, and I started feeling so nervous about his response all over again.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

“Should we start our baby-making project now?” Edward said, half teasingly yet half seriously.

“Seriously?” I asked incredulously as I looked around at the white snow-covered scenery around the hot spring that we were in.

“I like to act fast,” Edward said before winking evilly at me.

I yelped when I felt his hard chest against my back as his strong arms encircled my body. His hands were already on my naked breasts as he started licking my earlobe seductively from behind. I knew instinctively where this was all going to lead. I heard myself let out a soft moan when his large hands began massaging my breasts, playing with them, and kneading them together expertly.
