Zane & Lucky's First Christmas (Forever Love, #5) Read Online Free PDF Page B

I.” Leo looked away from me and mumbled under his breath. “That was the problem.” I pretended that I didn’t hear him and looked away quickly.
    “Well, it’s good that you’re a confirmed bachelor or this could have been a problem.” I faked a laugh and gave him one quick glance before I walked into the kitchen. I looked back at Leo, who was just standing there, and my stomach flipped with worry. Leo looked like anything but a confirmed bachelor at that moment and I had a feeling that my attempt to win over Robin over was about to get a lot more complicated.

Chapter 3
    Lucky
     
    I was dreading going in to look at wedding dresses. I wasn’t sure what size to get, since I wasn’t sure how quickly I was going to grow. I also didn’t know what color dress to get. Could I get a white dress if I was showing up to the altar with a big belly full of babies? The fact that I was a pregnant bride took away from the whole virginal maiden concept, and I didn’t want to be a hypocrite. I was certainly no virgin.
    “Whatcha doing?” Zane slid down on the couch next to me and picked up one of the magazines from the coffee table.
    “Deciding what to wear to the wedding.” I made a face at him and showed him the magazine in my hand. “I can’t decide if I should dress traditionally or if I should get a short red dress, with a high slit and lace over the breasts.”
    “Hmm, do I get to decide?” Zane’s hand slid around my waist and I giggled as I pushed him off.
    “No, you don’t.”
    “Is this going to be a striptease-type wedding?” His eyes sparkled at me. “Because if it is, I’d rather no one else be there but us.”
    “Uh huh.” I rolled my eyes at him and his fingers slid up my torso again.
    “If you want we can practice the stripping part right now.” His fingers crept across my right breast and paused. “You can start with your top if you want.”
    “I don’t want.”
    “Aw, you’re no fun, Lucky.”
    “All you think about is sex.” I hit his fingers and shook my head. “I’m sure you’d love it if it was a striptease wedding. Maybe you’d like the wedding to be in the bedroom and officiated online. Maybe we can even be naked. That way you don’t have to wait for the dress to come off.”
    “Uh oh.” Zane pulled away from me and made a face. “What did I do now? Is this your PMS talking?”
“I’m pregnant, Zane. I’m not getting a period any time soon.” I jumped up and threw the magazine on the couch. “And if you knew anything you would know that, you insensitive jerk. All you care about is sex.”
    “Oh God.” Zane jumped up and made a face. “Are we going to have this conversation again?” He reached over and grabbed me, and grabbed my chin until I was looking up at him. “Do you really think I only want sex?” His blue eyes pierced into my soul as he stared at me tenderly and I could feel my heart melting as my anger dissipated.  “Because you’d be right.” He laughed at me, his eyes crinkling and I shook my head at him as I joined him in his laughter.
    “You’re lucky I don’t take you seriously, Mr. Beaumont.”
    “What fun would that be, Mrs. Beaumont-to-be?”
    “You can’t say such things to a pregnant woman. We are emotional beings, you know.”
    “Really? I couldn’t tell.” He bent down and kissed me before pulling away. “Now how can I help you with your dress? Do you want me to come with you to try on dresses?”
    “You can’t see me in my wedding dress before we get married.” I shook my head.
    “Why not?”
    “It’s not allowed.”
    “Says who?”
    “Says tradition. It’s bad luck for the groom to see me in my wedding dress before the wedding.”
    “I’ve already seen your birthday suit, what does some dress matter?” He laughed.
    “That’s not the point.” I groaned. “Everyone will know you’ve seen my birthday suit already, because I’ll be fat at my wedding.”
    “You won’t be fat.”
    “I’m going to look like a
