am so sorry about last night, it’s just that was the last thing I was expecting, and I pan icked, he
pauses, ‘The thought of having to be a good example for a kid, of them looking up to me, it scares me,
it’s a lot of pressure,’ he admits.
‘I know it is, but you’ve got about eight months to figure it out and probably about another ten years
when you can make a lot of mistakes and still get away with it, I joke, and he rolls his eyes at me. I
move towards him and reach up on my tiptoes to softly kiss his tempting lips.
‘Plus, you’re not doing it alone, you’ve got me, I shrug, and he grins down at me, ‘We‘ve got this, I tell
him.
“I love you, he reaches down and lifts me up before I can reply, much to my surprise.
‘Let’s get you back to bed Mummy, wouldn’t want you on your feet for too long, he jokes, winking at me.
‘Oh dear God, do not call me that,’ I reply, bursting out laughing.
“Why? I think I’m gonna quite like you calling me Daddy, he wiggles his eyebrows at me, and I cringe in
horror.
‘Ew, that’s nasty. I complain as he marches up the stairs to my bedroom, ‘Besides, I’m not even tired,
I’ve just woken up,’ I tell him.
‘Who said anything about sleep? I need to make up for my behavior last night, and I intend to apologize
in your favorite way, he announces, kicking open the door to my room and gently placing me on the
bed. My cheeks warm as I know exactly what he is referring to.
prop myself up on my elbows as I watch him pull his t-shirt off, revealing each delicious inch of his
beautiful, tanned, muscular, inked chest.
Damn.
He is going to be the world’s fittest DILF.
A couple of months later…
My cheeks flush with embarrassment at all the attention I receive from my friends and family, I glance
over at Jayce for some assistance but he’s busy being cornered by my mum.
“You’re glowing Myra, Aria gushes and I feel my blush deepen.
Why did I agree to a baby shower? I’m only in my second trimester.
I know exactly why, because today we‘re revealing the gender of our baby. The doctor identified it last
week, Aria spoke to her and made the arrangements. Up until now, Jayce and I have been in the dark
about the sex of our own child.
I excuse myself from my group of friends, as wonderful as they are, I’m not used to being the center of
attention and this is a little uncomfortable. I retreat to the bar, ordering myself a non-alcoholic drink, un
fortunately. Right now I could do with some liquid courage.
Ilean back against the bar, my eyes naturally searching out Jayce again. I watch him chat to my Mum,
coping easily with her anything-but-calm, excited state. He looks over and winks at me before turning
his attention back to her.
Book 1 Chapter 46
‘I told you he was a good guy, Rixon’s voice invades my thoughts and I glance to the left to see him
leaning against the bar, his tall frame something I’m going to have to get used to.
‘Yeah, you were right, I agree with him. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
I’m glad everything worked out for you two, congratulations by the way, what are you hoping for?’ He
asks and I consider it for a moment.
As long as it’s healthy, I don’t mind, but I think Jayce wants a boy. I mention and Rixon grins mis
chievously.
‘He’ll hate it if it’s a girl, it’s his worst nightmare, wanting to protect her from every male alive, he replies
and I realize that he’s right, Jayce will be the most protective Dad ever.
‘Ladies and Gentlemen, will you please gather for the gender reveal!’ Aria announces, the room goes
silent, and I put down my drink, nervously making my way over to the front with Jayce.
Aria gives a signal, and a member of staff rolls in a huge cake…. designed to look like a moon. I dead
pan and glance at Aria.
‘Because we‘re wolves? Really?’ | ask, my tone colored with disbelief.
‘What? I thought it was appropriate now that you’ve shifted and everything, perfect for a little wolf ba by,
she shrugs, and I roll my eyes at her.
Personally, I’m not a big fan of gender-stereotyped colors, but seeing as Aria decorated and planned
this whole thing, I’ll just deal with it and be grateful my friend is so generous and creative. I want my
son to wear pink and my daughter to wear blue, assigning color to gender is ridiculous.
Together, Jayce and I put our hands around the knife and cut into the cake. I hold my breath as the
blade slices through, we make a second cut and slide the piece out….to reveal the undeniably pink
interior.
‘Shit, Jayce curses under his breath and I’m happy no one else hears it as cheers erupt throughout the
room.
I’m so happy for you!’ My mum cries, tears welling in her eyes.
I look over to see Jayce exhaling deeply with his eyes closed, oh dear.
‘Not what you were hoping for?’ | ask, unable to keep the disappointment out of my voice.
‘No, it’s amazing. he hurriedly reassures me, ‘It’s just… I’m going to have to protect her from all the ass
holes out there, assholes like I used to be, he explains, and I roll my eyes.
‘If we raise her right, she will be able to protect herself just fine,’ I tell him, and he looks at me slightly
unconvinced.
‘I guess I’m going to have another demanding Princess in my life then, he feigns annoyance, sighing
heavily.
‘Yes, you have, I agree, grinning at him.
You two are going to be the death of me I can feel it, he jokes, pulling me into his arms, ‘I wouldn’t have
it any other way, he admits, kissing the top of my forehead.
So, we‘re having a girl.
