Make You Mine - Page 121

His brow furrows, and our eyes meet. My stomach tickles, and I’m not sure I can say the words. I don’t know why I’m suddenly so shy.

“What is it, baby?”

Swallowing fast, I just say it. “We’ll need baby-proofing, too, since I’m… well, I’m pregnant.”

For a brief moment, everything goes quiet. My heart beats so hard, I think I might be sick. I’m blinking fast, not sure what to do, if I should say something more, until at last his expression breaks.

He takes a step back, his eyes moving from my face to my torso and back again, as the smile I love slowly curls his lips. “You’re… pregnant?”

“I’m pregnant.” I nod as we both say the word at the same time.

All at once, I’m off my feet. His face is in my chest, and I hug him to me as we turn around once.

“Drew.” He lowers me to my feet, his voice full of w

onder.

He places his hands on the sides of my head like I love, and I’m not sure I’ve ever seen him look this way as long as I’ve known him.

“How long have you known?”

“I started suspecting about a week ago, but I only took the test this morning.”

“And you’re sure?”

“Those tests are pretty accurate.”

Once again, I’m pulled to his chest. His strong arms surround me, and we breathe together as I listen to his heart beating fast.

Then he starts to laugh. He holds me out again, pure joy radiating in his eyes. “We’re going to have a baby.”

A smile breaks across my face, and I’m laughing, too. “We are.”

Next thing I know, I’m naked in my bed, thoroughly fucked with Gray’s face right above my navel.

“Hello, in there,” he calls softly, and I start to laugh again.

“You’re acting like the baby’s down a well.”

He cuts mischievous eyes up at me. “We’ll have to get her a dog.”

“It could be a boy.” Reaching down, I thread my fingers through his dark hair.

“Boys like dogs, too.” I laugh and my stomach moves. His eyes widen, and he smooths his palm over my still-flat stomach. “We’ll have to move up the timeline on that marriage thing. How does next weekend sound to you?”

I shake my head, reaching for his face, and he scoots up to capture my lips in another long kiss. I’m happy to marry him tomorrow if it’s what he wants.

Our life is everything I dreamed it would be that night I asked him for a promise on a coaster.

Nope, it’s better.

It’s a life that started out heartbreakingly sad. It’s a life where two orphans were saved by love. It’s a life where Grayson Cole took a hero’s journey through the darkness and the hatred, but he never lost his noble heart.

Now he’s here with me promising never to leave. I promise him the same in response. It’s the dream I’ve been waiting for all my life. It’s the promise he made one night in a dark room.

When I come back, I will make you mine.

And I’ll be forever his.
