“Where is she?”
“With a married man drinking champagne.”
I sounded angry, but I was also hurting. My whole world had changed in a short time. It was a lot to process.
“Come on, we'll sneak into a broom cupboard and make out before I flash us home.”
I giggled. “That sounds like fun, much better than a car journey home.”
“Oh, Georgie it will be. Trust me.” He smirked.
Chapter Fourteen
“She’s in danger?” I asked as I snuggled into Dexter. We were lying in his bed after the longest make-out session ever and I felt boneless.
“Xavier and Zack won't let any harm come to her. They wanted her to marry them so she wouldn't feel like they were just keeping her safe because they felt they had to."
“They love her?”
“Oh yeah, they've been waiting a long time to find their mate.”
“Tell me more of the danger she’s in.”
“Zack had a dream; he saw her cut down while out shopping. Someone dragged her into an alleyway and killed her.”
I gasped. My heart was beating so fast it felt like it would beat right out of my chest. “Why would someone want to hurt her? I don't understand.”
“This person wants to hurt Zack and Xavier and what better way than to hurt their mate.”
“They’ve only just met, how could someone know she was their mate when they didn’t know themselves?”
“A premonition maybe, we aren't sure but we do know that the person is powerful.”
“That does not make me feel better.”
“Zack and Xavier are stronger. Together they’re pretty much unstoppable.”
“Where are they? I really need to speak to Janey; I want to make sure she's ok.”
“They've gone dark. They’ll ring in a few days once they have a lead on who’s behind this.”
“A few days, that’s too long. Can't you ring them? Please?” I begged.
“Baby, I'm sorry. They've gone dark; they have nothing on them that can be traced.”
“I understand, for her safety, right?”
“Yeah, for her safety,”
“I’m still going to worry until I’ve heard from her.”
“I wouldn’t expect anything else. I think you have problems closer to home though. Heather is asking for trouble.”
I sighed. “Something is going on with her. I'll have to find out what but right now I think you need to show me how much you love me. Take my mind off things.” I grinned.
“That definitely sounds like fun. Three or four?”
“Three or four?” I asked in confusion.
“Orgasms.”
“Oh,” I giggled. “Surprise me.”
He pulled the covers off me slowly, baring my naked body to him. “I can do that.” He growled.
And he did.
Epilogue
“Shit.” I cursed.
“Are you asking for a spanking?” Dexter called through the bathroom door.
“No. I have news.” I called back.
He must have sensed my unease because the door opened and he was at my side in an instant. “What’s the matter?”
I took a deep breath. “I’m pregnant.”
He didn't look shocked; in fact, he was grinning hugely. “I know.”
“You know?” How could he know? “Did you read my mind?”
“No, I promised I wouldn't do that unless it was an emergency.”
“How then?”
“Your body told me.”
“My body?”
“Your breasts are larger, your stomach has a tiny little bulge and you're hornier.”
“I think I've been in denial,” I admitted. I'd noticed the same but with Janey still in danger, I'd blocked it out thinking I couldn't have good news when she was still dealing with a madman.
“Are you happy?”
“Yes.”
“Janey will be pregnant by the end of the month; I can guarantee that her husband's aren't putting her life and theirs on hold. You shouldn't feel guilty baby.”
“I can't help it. Besides, what is Heather going to think?”
“Do you really care? She hasn't spoken to you in a month; she's avoided your calls and ignored all your invitations to meet up.”
“She's still my friend.”
“No, she isn’t. She's a bitch who got so jealous of Janey and you that she treated you both like shit. She's no friend Georgina.”
“I don’t want to give up on her.”
“She gave up on you. She’ll take the excitement out of our discovery and I'm not going to allow that. She's hurt you enough. I don't want her around you or our baby.”
“What if I don't agree? I can just call her and see how she is.”
“I forbid it. This is one of those times which I will use my gift if I have to.” He warned.
I looked up in shock. “You feel that strongly about it?”
“Yes. If she wants you, she'll call you and then we'll take it from there.”
I had to agree, he came first and he was right, she was being an awful friend. “Ok, we'll leave it in her hands.”
“Good now can we get excited again please?”
“How about we go baby shopping?” I grinned.
“Isn't it too early?” He sounded worried.
“I'm pretty sure I'm about twelve weeks. I'll make an appointment with the midwife to find out for sure.”
“We'll do that before we shop.”
“Wait a minute; this baby will be normal, won't it? I mean the birth; it's not going to be born with teeth or anything?” I bit my lip in distress.
Dexter gripped my shoulders. “Our baby will be human.”
“It will?”
“Yes, he or she will be strong like me and have all my traits, maybe my gifts, but it won't need to drink blood.”
“I can't tell you how relieved I am. I was panicking about breastfeeding a baby with sharp teeth. I would have done it but it would have been painful.”
“Your delectable breasts will be quite safe from the baby but I can't say they will be from me.”
“I’m Ok with that.”
“Judging from last night I'd have to agree.”
“You do bite me a lot lately.”
“It’s just another way for me to mark what's mine.”
I rolled my eyes. “You don't need to mark me; I've never denied I’m yours.”
He raised his brows.
“Ok, I denied it once or twice but that was when you freaked me out. I haven't denied it since then.”
He shrugged. “I like to remind you and I think you like the reminder when you look down in the shower and see my teeth marks on your skin.”
I couldn't deny it so I didn't bother. I loved that he did it and when I saw the mark of his love for me it turned me on. I rubbed my hands together. “We have so much to buy for this baby, I’m so happy.”
“I knew you were mine the instant I laid eyes on you.” His hand rubbed my stomach. “And I already love this little one.”
Tears filled my eyes. “I couldn't ask for a better father for our child.”
“And I couldn't ask for a better mother.”
Reaching up, I cupped his face in my hands. “You're my world, you make me so happy. This baby is going to feel exactly the same.” I kissed his lips before snuggling into his embrace. “Safe and loved, Just the way it should be.”
