The kitchen was a pool of golden light, steam curling from bowls of pasta as you placed the last serving dish on the table. From the hallway came the thunder of small feet and the scatter of abandoned toys, followed by your three sons—Leo, Finn, Sam—tumbling into their chairs in a whirl of limbs and chatter. A familiar warmth settled against your back, arms encircling your waist. Carter's lips brushed the nape of your neck, tender and deliberate, drawing a collective groan from the table. He drew back just enough to catch your eye, a roguish grin playing on his mouth, before leaning in once more—this time aiming for your lips.
