The Apple of My Eye

Chapter 472 Charles And Autumn Get Intimate

He stepped forward, pretended to look serious and said,"Hey, what are you doing here?"

"Charles, you're back!" an ecstatic Autumn cried. She giggled at her husband's antics and said,"I'm

talking to Chris. She'll soon get married, and I'm not ready to be separated from her."

Charles was busy at work all day while Gary was getting older. Chris was the only one similar in age to

Autumn and was not very busy with work, so Chris could keep her company. They also shared many

interests and always had several topics to discuss.

So it was Chris who usually kept her sister-in-law company since she became pregnant.

Their shared affection was evident, and when Chris announced she was getting married soon, Autumn

became sick at heart. That meant she would move out to live with Sam, while Autumn would remain at

the Lu family's house.

Without Chris as a companion, Autumn would be very lonely since there was no one else who could

spend as much time with her.

"Why are you so late coming home today?" Chris addressed her brother rather sharply. "Don't you

know Autumn needs your companionship during this time when her condition is so delicate?" she

pointed out.

Her wedding to Sam was happening soon, but she was spending more time with Autumn than

preparing for the event. It was time to remind Charles of his responsibilities. "You do know that once I

move out of here, it will be your duty to take care of Autumn. And you're going to be held responsible if

something happens to her because you've been remiss," she warned her brother.

Charles only glanced at his sister but said nothing.

"Chris, don't make fun of your brother," Autumn pleaded. She wrapped her arms around Chris and

urged her,"It's late. You get some rest. And thank you."

Suddenly, Charles spoke up while glaring at Chris. "You are really a horrible sister of mine," he

teased,"Autumn is my wife, so of course I will take care of her!" He flashed her a big smile of gratitude.

Chris heaved a big sigh of relief. "Well, at least that's clear. You really should be spending more time

with her," she suggested. But Chris knew her brother would take good care of his wife when the time

came. She turned to Autumn. "I'm off now and I am going on a break."

Charles and Autumn headed to their bedroom once Chris left. Charles started reading papers from

work and waited for Autumn to come out of the bathroom. "You still have a lot of work to do?" she

inquired.

"Oh yes. I'm very busy these days," he replied while grinning. Charles pulled his wife towards him and

helped her sit on his lap. "You're pregnant, and soon our babies will be born. That's why I have to work

harder so I can provide a better life for my family," he said teasingly.

"You're making fun of me again, Charles," Autumn pretended to complain. She put an arm around her

husband's shoulders and said,"The babies won't be coming any time soon. There's still a lot of time

before you begin worrying about them." Charles laid his hand on Autumn's belly. "But I'm worried about

you," he said gently.

Autumn savored his touch. She then laid her forehead on his before saying,"You also have to take care

of your health. I'm worried that your long working hours would eventually drive you crazy."

"Thank you, but you don't have to worry about me. I promise to take care of myself because you and Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

our babies need me. I have to be a responsible husband and father, right?" he said tenderly. Charles

then buried his face in Autumn's neck, enjoying her sweet scent. After they learned of the pregnancy,

Charles had to control his sexual desires but missed the intimacy with his wife. He held her for a long

while before raising his head. He said,"It's getting late. Why don't you get some sleep."

Autumn looked into her husband's eyes. "Charles…" she whispered. She held on to his hands and

looked at him shyly.

"What is it, Autumn?" he asked. Charles was having a hard time keeping his passion in check.

Autumn was mumbling and muttering but could not express herself clearly. "Do you want…" she

stopped. "It's been so long," she said softly.

"What are you saying?" Charles asked, his grip tightening. He was unsure about what Autumn was

trying to say, but seeing her embarrassed look, he understood then. "I miss you, too. But how about the

babies? How can we…"

Charles stopped in mid-sentence. His sexual desire was building, and he was having a hard time

controlling his urges. But he had to consider Autumn's condition. She was pregnant with twins, and he

was afraid of hurting the babies. Charles was always careful turning in bed while Autumn slept and only

held her very gently.

But now, it was Autumn taking the initiative. She wanted him, too. He tried to control his urges even as

he needed to push her to the bed. Looking at her swollen belly, he restrained himself.

"Go ahead and get in bed. I'll join you soon," he said struggling to stay calm. Autumn saw the desire in

her husband's face mixed with apprehension.

Her voice shaky, she told him,"I've been reading books. And it says the babies won't get hurt as long as

we are very cautious." Autumn waited for his response.

'She's been reading books?' Charles thought. He stared at his beautiful and very pregnant wife and

was at a loss for words. She looked so delicate and irresistible and it was becoming a losing battle

against temptation. "Autumn, you do know you're playing with fire, right?"

His heart was racing and his body was heating up.

Autumn suddenly stuck her tongue out and grinned. It was natural for married couples to talk about

sexual needs. As an understanding wife, she had to consider Charles's feelings. She loved him deeply

and knew it was her duty to address his physical needs.

She moved closer to him, and then began kissing him gently. She felt her cheeks flush. It was a light

kiss, but Charles became even more aroused.

"Are you sure?" he almost groaned. His hands were running down her neck, and his voice had turned

husky.

"I'm sure. Don't worry about me," she answered. As she nodded and encouraged Charles, he became

more ardent and started kissing his wife more passionately.

He took his time and enjoyed her lips before he drew back. Then he groaned and dragged Autumn

carefully towards the bed.

Autumn was feeling a little nervous now. She was not about to reject her husband's need for intimacy.

But this was the first time they've come together since she became pregnant. Once on the bed, he

began kissing her earlobes. Soon, the dimly-lit bedroom reverberated with passionate moans. It was

under the sheets where they shared tender, passionate lovemaking.

"Oh, Autumn. I love you. I love you so much. I can't live without you," Charles gasped. Thinking about

the babies, he moved gently, even as his body felt hot as fire. He had restrained himself for so long that

it needed to explode and let go.

But his mind was on Autumn and making sure he would not hurt her or the twins inside her. So, he

decided to concentrate more on pleasing his wife rather than worry about his release. Looking at her,

he nearly growled as he heard her moans of pleasure. Charles was content.

It seemed a long time before Charles finally held Autumn in his arms, a satisfied smile on his lips. "Did I

hurt you?" he asked.

"No, Charles. It was beautiful," she said stroking her husband's face. He rubbed her arm gently, while

they held on to each other. Soon, Autumn fell asleep.

Charles still had things to work on but was afraid he would wake Autumn if he moved. He decided to

hold her while she slept.

When Autumn woke up in the morning, Charles had already left for work. She stretched contentedly.

Breakfast was ready and was on the bedstand. Autumn smiled secretly.

Finally, it was Chris' wedding day. Autumn got up early that day to wake the bride up. She had made

arrangements for someone to come and do Chris's make-up.

It was March, but there was still an early morning chill. Charles had asked Autumn to wear a thick coat.

He worried about her health. But she started to sweat with the air-conditioner running.

"You look weird, Autumn. Are you feeling all right?" Chris noted. She felt excited but gave her sister-in-

law a worried glance. Chris finished her breakfast. She was now seated in front of a dressing table

being made up. Looking at the mirror, she noticed Autumn's cheeks turning pink. She was about to

stand up to check on her sister-in-law but was told,"Don't move, or your makeup will be ruined."

Autumn called out,"I'm fine, Chris. Please don't worry about me." She smiled to assure the bride. Then

Autumn stood up and complained,"It's rather hot here. Let me go and change my clothes."

"Are you sure you're okay?" Chris asked her again. She was starting to worry about Autumn.
