“Jarrod, my love, stop worrying.  I
will be fine as long as you are there to talk me through it.  We can’t both
fall apart.  OOHHH!  I …ehm … think we better get to Houston, Babe and fast.”

That shook him out of his own shock. 
He picked her up, grabbed the suitcase from Rosa and started running to the
chopper waiting next to the house.

“Phone my Dad, Rosa; also Sheila, Reed
and Chris … Noah too!”

Shannon was already in full labor by
the time the chopper landed on the helipad at the private clinic.  Jarred was
out of his mind with worry.  Her contractions were already only two minutes
apart and he was relatively sure she was nearly fully dilated.

Bennett took over the moment she was
on the stretcher.  He examined her while they pushed her towards the elevator,
clutching Jarrod’s hand.  Bennett snapped at them to speed up, the babies were
coming.

They just moved her onto the delivery
bed when she screamed at Bennett and grabbed Jarrod’s hand.

“Oh God, it hurts!  Help me, Babe!”

“Shh, doll face, just breathe, my
love.”  He wrapped his arms around her shoulders, making the nurse’s task to
try and dress him in theatre blues slightly difficult.

Bennett placed her feet in stirrups
and spread her legs.

“Wow, these little Parkers are in a
hurry to meet their parents!  I can see the head already, Shannon.  Come have a
look, Jarrod.”

Jarrod glared at him.

“I am here to support my wife. I am
not goin’ to pass out and let her go through it alone.”

“Why would you pass out, Babe?’

“Honey, I know the size of your … down
there … and I know the size of the babies that has to come through there … I could
not bear seein’ your pain!”

“Shannon, with the next contraction, I
need you to bear down as hard as you can.  Scream if you want to.  Okay, get
ready, it is close … now bear down!”

Shannon bore down, her face turning
red and her hand clamped so hard around Jarrod’s he flinched.  Then she
screamed and Bennett’s surprised shout had Jarrod straighten worriedly.

“Wow!  Hello Tristan!  I’ve never seen
a baby slip out so easily and hello … here comes Amber … push Shannon!  Come on
… one hard push … yes!  Hello little Amber!”

Both the babies shrieked and Jarrod
could not take his eyes from the two crying goo covered babies.  The nurse
covered them and he turned to Shannon.  Her eyes glittered and he wiped the
sweat from her brow.  He kissed her tenderly.

“Are you okay, my beautiful wife?”

“I am wonderful, my gorgeous husband.”

Bennett walked closer with one baby in
each arm.  He was smiling from ear to ear and looked as if he was the father.

He handed Tristan to his father and
Amber to her mother.  They stared at the now content little babies and both
cried with the wonder of it.  Jarrod sat down next to Shannon on the bed and
put his arm around her, laying their son in her arm.  He stroked his daughters
head and leaned down to kiss each little cheek.

“Hello Daddy’s beautiful babies!”

He kissed Shannon on her hair.

“Thank you, my love.  They are
beautiful.”

Tristan caught Jarrod’s finger and
clutched his tiny little hand around it.  He stared into his father’s eyes
unflinchingly.  Jarrod swallowed at the lump in his throat, the love for his
children totally overwhelming him.

Awh, Doll face … I wanna cry!

Then cry with me!

Too late!  I’m bawling already!

 

Epilogue

“Daddy … Daaaddy!”

“Yeah, Poppet.”

“Tan hurt me.”

“He did?  Why did he hurt you?”

“Tan naughty.”

Jarrod leaned down and picked up his
little three year old daughter and she curled on his lap.

She played with his hair that was
hanging loose.  He wanted to cut it after the twins were born, but Shannon promised
retribution if he dared.  So, he just kept it at shoulder length.

“Daddy, Amber naughty!”

Jarrod smiled and looked down at the
male version of his little daughter.  They were identical boy and girl versions
of each other.  Tristan was slightly larger and taller, but they both had his
dark hair.  Tristan had his eyes and Amber her mother’s.

“What did Amber do, my boy?”

“She pulled my hair!”

“Did not!’

“Did too!”

“Did not!”

“Did too!”

“One more did too and did not out of
the two of you and there will be no Disney channel for a week!”

“But Mommy, Tan nau …”

“Moms, Amber pu …”

Shannon held up her hand and her eyes
touched each of the twins.  Tristan bore his toe into the carpet and Amber hid
under Jarrod’s chin.  Tristan turned and jumped on Jarrod’s lap.

“You, Daddy … should not allow these
rascals to run all over you.”

“I was still listenin’ to each of
their complaints, honey.”

“Yeah … and you are going to tell me
you don’t enjoy their bickering.”

“They’re so cute, honey.  I could not
resist.”

“Yes and they know very well they have
you wrapped around their little fingers.  Come you two … say goodnight to
Daddy.  It’s bedtime.”

Amber took Jarrod’s face between her
small hands and kissed him smack on his lips.

“Love you, Daddy!”

“I love you too, Poppet.”  He had to
swallow hard and smiled at Shannon who kissed each of the twins and then him. 
Little Amber knew just how to soften her father.

“It’s fine, doll face.  I’ll put them
to bed.  Why don’t you go and put on your cabin outfit and wait for me in our bed.”

Shannon blushed and he laughed.  Since
the twins started talking and understanding them, they had to become a little
inventive.  Her cabin outfit referred to how Jarrod kept her dressed … or
rather undressed, every time he took her to the cabin … naked.

She did as instructed, showered
quickly and waited for him eagerly.  He took a quick shower himself and walked
towards her.  She threw off the sheet and spread her legs wide and pulled her
knees up.

“Bloody hell, honey!  Do you want to
give me a heart attack?”

“Come here, Cowboy!  I have a very
deep itch for you to take care off!”

“Careful, my love.  Remember what
happened the last time you had me scratch your itch!”

“Yes, Babe … I remember very well!”

“Aah, my love … you still take my
breath away!”

“Hmm ... think you can handle another
shock, Babe?”

He kissed her neck and slowly trailed
down towards her nipple and suckled it gently, then harder as she mewled and
pressed her breast deeper in his mouth.

“I’m listening, doll face.”

“Do you think you’re ready, Babe?”

“Hell, yes … but I am thinking of you
now!”

Shannon chuckled and slapped his
back.  He licked over the slope of her breast to pull her other nipple into his
mouth.

“No, my love … for more babies.”

He froze and lifted his head, his eyes
glittered like silver jewels.

“Are we expectin’ again?”

“Yes, my love.  We’re expecting
again.”

He took her face between his hands and
looked deep into her eyes and saw the joy and love.

“As I said … you still take my breath
away!”

Awh, he’s so sweet, doll face!

Don’t I know it!

You did well doll face.  You did really
well!

Her Midnight Cowboy - Chapter
One

“Awh,
Jeez!  Just when I thought I found the perfect spot for some uninterrupted
sunset watching!”

Angel Darby muttered irritably where
she sat on a wide branch high up a tree, next to a tranquil stream on the
border of her ranch.  Well, not really sitting, she was lazing.  She was half
lying on her back with her head resting against the massive tree trunk behind her. 
The branch she was on was wider than she was broad, so it was a comfortable
seat. Her feet were crossed with her newly bought Cat roughrider boots as they
were called.  Her long curvy legs were naked all the way to nearly her hip
where they disappeared into a tiny white short.  She felt the roughness of the
tree trunk against her back where the checkered shirt she wore left it bare. 
The front of the shirt was tied up between her breasts.

She scuttled a little more upright and
peered at the couple who just rode up on horses.  From the throaty giggle, the
woman was clearly enjoying the muscled and seriously gorgeous man’s company. 
They stopped beneath her tree and she groaned. 

Really?  Of all the spots in the area,
you had to choose MY spot for your tryst?

And she was sure it was for a tryst. 
The box blond woman giggled again when the man reached up and lifted her from
the horse. 

Wearing … wouldn’t you know it … a
dress.  Riding a horse with a dress?  Clearly she had plans for the cowboy. 
Hell, as gorgeous as he is, which woman wouldn’t!

Quite an eager cowboy by the looks of
it too.  His hands trailed over the woman’s back and grabbed her ass and
pressed her against his hips.

“Ooh … Noah!  That feels so … hmm!”

He lifted her and she wiggled against him.

Oh please girl!  Wrap your legs around
him!  You’re wearing a dress!  Make use of that!

Noah?  Her stream neighbor?  Noah
Cutter.  She’s heard quite a lot of the notorious womanizer since she arrived
two weeks ago.

Hmmm … interesting way of meeting you
neighbor!

He carried the woman to the tree trunk
where she was in and pressed her against it, capturing her mouth with his. 
From where she watched, she could see the kiss was hot and deep.   Her stomach
quivered just watching him kiss.  This man knew what to do with that wide
sensual mouth of his that was for sure.

The blond squirmed against him and
clutched his neck, her long red nails digging into his skin.  He moved his
wicked mouth down her throat and slipped her dress and bra straps off her
shoulder and down to her waist. 

Angel watched him caress her nipples
with his big hands.  Watching those strong fingers and large hand caress her
soft curves had her own nipples pebble into hard painful nubs. Blondie mewled
loudly and Angel nearly chuckled out loud.

Oh please, she sounds like a tortured
cat.  How much more pretentious can you be. Mewling when a man caresses your
boobs! 

When he trailed his lips lower down
her chest, Angel turned on her stomach and leaned her chin on her hands for a
better view.

This must definitely be better than
watching porn!

His large hand wrapped around her
blond hair and pulled, forcing her head back so that her boobs arched up to
him.

Holy shit, neighbor, you have some
serious moves there.  Just ease up on those hair.  You don’t want to rip those
extensions out!

Angel held her breath as his lips
aimed closer to her nipples.  Her own nipples tingled in anticipation.  As if
it was her own he was about to feast on.

Just as his lips reached for her
nipple, Blondie’s eyes caught Angel watching them high above from the branch
and screamed, shoving Noah away.

“What the hell, Elrine?”

Elrine pointed upwards, fury making
her slightly slagging boobs jiggle.  Angel watched with a grin, Noah with
frustration.

“I am not a cheap harlot to be made
fun of Noah!”

“What the blazes are you …”

She shrieked furiously and pointed
upwards again.

He looked up and his dark green eyes
met amused sky blue ones.  His, glittered dangerously over the distance. 

Blondie huffed angrily and pulled her
dress back over shoulders.

“Now Elrine, this is a misun …”

“Yes, Blondie, please don’t leave on
my account.  Who knows, I might just learn something!  Do continue, neighbor. 
It was just becoming interesting!”

Blondie shrieked and struggled to get
on the horse.  Noah cursed and walked over to assist her.  He tried to pacify
her, but when she snapped at him, he lost his patience and dumped her on the
horse and slapped him on his rump.  She shrieked and grabbed the reins,
thundering away.

“You are an asshole, Noah Cutter!  You
and your tree huggin’ bitch!”

“Bitch!  Hey!  I take exception to
that!”

Noah’s head shut up as if only then
remembering about her, and stalked back to the tree. His green eyes shot
daggers at her.

“Get down from there.”

His voice was deadly quiet and
furious.

“Now why would I want to do that?  I
am quite comfortable and plan on watching the sunset from here.”

“Woman!  Get your ass down here now!”

She smiled even wider, sat up to
straddle the tree, her legs dangling on either side of the branch.  She leaned
her back against the trunk, her breast pressing forward enticingly.

“As I said, I am …”

“Very well, then I will come and get
you.”

Angel’s eyebrows rose amusingly.  Him
climb a tree, with his massive frame?

“You climbed any trees lately, Cowboy? 
You’re a bit big for me to lift you on your horse if you fall and I have to get
you help.”

She heard his furious mumbles and was
amazed at the speed with which the large muscled man climbed the tree. Just as
he reached towards the branch next to hers, she swung her legs over and jumped
onto the branch on the other side of the tree, quickly scuttling down to the
ground.

Noah cursed one continuous stream and
started climbing down.

“Don’t bloody move!  I promise you, if
I have to come chasin’ after you, you will regret it.”

“Watch the language there, neighbor. 
You are in the presence of a lady, you know!”

His vicious curse told her exactly
what he thought of her status as a lady.

Angel decided to do as he asked … or
rather instructed, purely because she wanted to see those eyes up close when
they’re angry.

Damn, the man was gorgeous.  He was
sculptured perfection from top to bottom, even his face with its high
cheekbones, strong chin and wide forehead.  His nose was straight and in
perfect symmetry with his wide, yet full mouth and straight eyebrows over his
eyes that had the longest, thickest eyelashes she has ever seen on a man.  His
dark blonde hair with his sun bronzed skin made her mouth water.  She watched
the muscles ripple down his bare back as he climb down the tree, fury in every
fiber.  She only noticed now he was shirtless.  His shoulders were wide and his
arms as sculptured as the rest of him.  He sported a tattoo on his right
shoulder.

As a precaution she pulled her pistol
from her belt, just in case he needed to be kept at bay.

Noah hit the ground and turned. 
Furious at the woman for interrupting what would have been a very satisfying
romp with Elrine.  One he desperately needed.  This time of year was hectic and
he hardly slept, let alone had time to find a woman for sex. For that matter,
he has not had time for a good ride between a woman’s thighs in a good ten
months!

He stalked towards her, his intentions
clear.  She was going to pay for interrupting his afternoon of steamy sex!  The
next moment he froze in his steps when she cocked the pistol she was pointing
at him.  At his goddamned crotch!  Where his cock throbbed and was as hard as
that damn pistol’s barrel.  It slammed to full arousal the moment he turned and
slammed eyes on the dark haired siren in the shortest damn short he has ever
seen with a checked shirt that was tied in a knot between her breasts.  Clearly
no bra covered those firm, full and round breasts.

Her sky blue eyes were perfectly
almond shaped in a delicate oval shaped face with a perfectly rounded chin and
high cheekbones.  She had a sweet straight nose over the sauciest, plump cupid
lips.  She was damn beautiful and tempting as sin.

“You’re gonna shoot me know?  On my
own damn property!”

“This is my property, buster!”

Angel was breathless.  She was still
trying to recover from her first good look at that broad muscled chest and abs
that looked to be sculptured in gold.

“If you stood on the other side of the
tree yes.  This side is mine!  So, I suggest you lower that pistol and
quickly.”

She looked him over and his cock
twitched harder against his pants. 

“Hmm, shame … you seem to be in
distress over there, neighbor.  Anything I could help you with?”

His breath hitched in his throat. 

Hot damn yes!  Spread your thighs so I
can fuck you hard!

His thoughts must have been in his
eyes because she took a step back and he took one forward.  When her eyes met
his, he froze. She was looking at him like she was about to eat him up, her
eyes were that lusty.

“Now here’s the thing, honey buns.  I
don’t see myself scratching the itch someone else caused.” 

Oh hell no, Angel face.  This itch is
all you!

She walked closer as she spoke, waving
him back with the pistol, he dutifully took a few steps back until his back
came up against the wide tree trunk he just jumped from.  She kept coming, the
pistol still cocked and still pointed at his groin.  She did not stop until she
stood up against him. Her breasts were flattened against his chest and her
breath hot against his neck.  She hardly reached his shoulders he was that
tall.

She ground her stomach against the
hard ridge of his arousal and watched his eyes narrow dangerously.  When he
lifted his hands to grab her, he froze when he felt the barrel of the pistol
pressing into his groin.

“Goddammit woman! Un-cock that bloody
pistol!”

“Huhuh … hands, Cowboy … keep them to
yourself.  Now I am a reasonable woman, even though you threatened me, I am
willing to offer you a small token of … relief.  I mean I am the reason your
rendezvous was cut short.”

She fisted her hand in the short hair
in the nape of his neck and pulled his head down.  Her lips locked around his
and her soft hot mouth moved sensually back and forth over his.  Her tongue
traced the seam between his lips and boldly pressed inside.  She was not
tentative, rather she was aggressive and pressed deep into his mouth.  Noah had
to hold on to the bark of the tree behind him not to come in his pants, like a
bloody schoolboy!

The damn woman was making love to his
mouth.  He has never felt the like and he wanted her to continue and never
stop.  Every lick, every thrust and every caress of her tongue shot directly to
his groin. His cock growing harder and bigger still. 

Angel felt it too.  She groaned and
rotated her hips against his.  The kiss went wild, especially when Noah took
charge and thrust his tongue so deep into her mouth, he touched the back of her
throat.  He sucked her tongue deeper into his mouth and drew on it
relentlessly, causing her moans to increase in volume.

Angel ripped her mouth from his and
stepped back, totally breathless and her lips swollen from the rough and wild
kiss.  Noah was breathing hard his chest heaving. His cock bulged larger than
life against his pants.

“So, Cowboy, if you want me to scratch
an itch that I caused, meet me here at midnight tonight.”

Noah was still struggling to breathe
and dissect the offer she made when she thundered away on her horse that had
stood grazing a distance away.

“You bloody better be here at
midnight, Angel face, otherwise I will come and find you in your own bed!”

Angel shivered at the promise in his
voice, her core pulsing in need and anticipation.

Oh,
I’ll be here, Cowboy.  It’s been years since I’ve had sex and you are just too
gorgeous to run lose between all these Brady woman.  I intend to make you mine,
Noah Cutter … all mine!  

Angel
had lived in Miami all her life.  At no time in her life did she ever have a
desire to move to Texas.  She used to visit her Uncle quite often growing up
and could ride a horse better than the best Rodeo Queen.    She had a Master
degree in Financial Banking and worked at the Miami Global bank as the
Assistant Bank Manager.  It came with a massive amount of challenges and
malice.  Especially from the men.  She worked hard and got promoted rapidly
within a short period of time.  She got the Assistant Bank Manager position the
year she turned twenty five.  That in itself was what triggered the malice and
lies.
