Ripley’s pov “Shouldn’t you go home?” I asked Cas. I didn’t mind him staying here at all, but all his things were in his house, and he was really peculiar about his things. He didn’t even send for his clothes; instead, he wore the sweatpants and shirt I bought him all day. Even when we visited the small playground near my house. “Are you sick of me already?” Cas joked. “No.” I quickly said, not wanting him for a second to think I wanted him gone. He had been perfect today and yesterday. Even when the girls seemed to cling around me, he either tried to distract one of them to give me space or he took a step back to allow them to have some time with me alone. “Good,” Cas replied with a sexy smirk. “But I thought you hated this apartment?” I joked back. “I like the people in this tiny apartment.” Cas shrugged. “Look, I am not saying you should go home. Not at all. But I do know it’s not like you to skip work or to go without your clothes or things for a long time. And I don’t want

Ripley’s pov “Are you both comfortable?” I asked the girls after tucking them in. “This is the softest bed evew!” River screamed. I giggled, “I know, but I want you to be calm now or you won’t be able to fall asleep.” “Today was fun,” Rose said. “Cas is nice.” “I think so too,” I said, blushing at the thought of what we were going to do once the girls were asleep. But I knew rushing them to fall asleep would have the opposite effect. It always did. “Can you tell us about Daddy?" River asked. It was something I often did before bringing them to bed, almost like a bedtime story. “Daddy and I met in school, and we were friends. He made me laugh all the time because he was very silly. Daddy and I both loved TV shows a lot, and we would talk about them all night. And then we were very happy when we found out we were going to have two girls, and Daddy wanted to name you after his favorite show. Doctor Who.” “What is Doctor Who about?” River asked, and I knew she was stalling. “You a

Ripley’s pov I don’t know whether it was all the sex or the exhaustion from his hellish honeymoon, but Cas, who famously always wakes up before the crack of dawn, is now sleeping in like a little baby. Well, no. Not a baby. A very handsome, very capable, very very good in bed man. Damn. I have never, ever in my life had sex like that. And maybe that’s not saying much, since I’ve only had sex with Oliver, and that was just vanilla sex. Sex, where we both didn’t really know much and didn’t feel that comfortable experimenting. Or maybe it’s because Cas makes me feel sexy in a way that nobody else has. When he looks at me, it’s impossible to feel shy. There’s so much love and admiration in his eyes, and I know that even if I did do something weird, he’d just find it cute. My girls were both still sleeping too, but I couldn’t. So I put on the big fluffy robe and walked around the giant mansion, where Cas’ staff was already busy at work. He said that soon he’d have to let them go sinc

Ripley’s pov “Maybe we should talk about what happened today?” I suggested after I put the girls down. Today had been perfect, mostly, but there had been some tension, and I didn’t think it was healthy to let that stay there. I was raised to talk about your feelings and to share what’s bothering you so you can resolve it. Otherwise, it will start to fester, and what started as something small will become something big. “Couldn’t we just try that one position again?” Cas said, walking towards me, looking as sexy as ever. “We tried many positions tonight, so I am not sure which one you’re referring to…” I said. Maybe we could talk after sex, because it was becoming hard to focus on anything else than this beautiful man smirking at me like he was reading my dirty mind. “Or... have you ever had sex in a pool?” Cas suggested. “We have a really big house, mostly for ourselves. I’m willing to have sex in every room if it makes you feel more at home.” I sighed. I guess we did need to ta

Ripley’s pov “I don’t want to go.” Cas whined like a little child. How could I still find this man so incredibly sexy even when he used this annoying voice? It’s probably the muscles. And how sweet he has been these last few days! When I first met Cas, I could have never expected him to be this sweet. He’s like a gentle giant, a prickly pear, and, um, a walnut? Or an onion with many layers? Yeah, I’m done with the analogies. He’s just a tough-looking guy with the sweetest heart. “Did you hear me?” Cas pouted. “I hear you, you big baby. Now get your big boy pants on, because we can handle this. The sooner you get this over with, the sooner you can come home to us. And I mean, my home, because I am really behind with packing.” “I want you to take my big boy pants off so I can fuck you instead,” Cas replied, pulling me against him. I squealed and giggled, “I am not, or should I say, she is not ready for round whatever the number is. Give Ripley junior a chance to heal from all you
