I was on the beach with her, she was walking along the shore line while I relaxed in the sand just watching her giggle every time the waves washed up over her feet or when she found a shell she liked. She looked like a Goddess with her hair a mess from the winds and wearing her black bikini with her long sleeve black see though suit cover. She would turn to look at me every once in a while and each time she caught my eyes she smiled this heartwarming smile. My wolf was content watching her having fun on third beach where the pack had built us a house.
She started making her walk back over to me and before I knew it she was lying next to me. My arms around her with both my hands resting on her swollen stomach. It wasn't very big but everyone could tell that she was pregnant and glowing. She complained about having to go shopping again because her shirts were too tight- I didn't mind a bit though. The way her shirts now hugged her belly- it made me love her more than I already did because she was carrying a part of me- a part of us within her. "What are you thinking about?" Her voice was soft but I could head the sigh of contentment she let out as I kissed her neck, I was still rubbing my hand over her belly and it seemed to calm her even more.
"You, our baby, my life with you and so much more." She tilted her head back and gave me a light kiss and a dazzling smile. "I wish we could stay like this. I wish I didn't have to go to Seattle for that conference." I let out a light snarl at the mention of Seattle. Having just finished the war with the new born army not even two weeks ago, the pack was still on edge. "You don't have to go baby, I don't want you to go near there. Not without me with you." She sighed and cuddled close to me. "I know baby, I'm going to try and get out of it. My boss would understand- I mean the only thing she knows is the killings but I don't want to put our baby in danger. I wouldn't know what to do if something happened." I let out a soft growl pulling her closer to myself. I didn't like the thought of anything happening to my mate or my child.
When we got home I was in bliss- her boss told her to not worry about the conference saying that she had a mothering instinct to keep her baby safe, if she didn't feel like Seattle was safe for her or her child then that was how it was going to be and she couldn't make her go. "I'm going to run to the store really quick baby- you need anything?" I shook my head and gave her a kiss before handing her the keys to the truck. "Be safe baby." I whispered, she smiled and kissed my cheek before walking out the door.
Ten minutes later Jared walked through the front door followed by the rest of the pack. I knew something was wrong I could feel it but I didn't know what. "She was in a car crash."
I was jolted awake, sitting up I looked around. My mate was sleeping next to me- peacefully and unharmed. Taking a deep breaths until I calmed, when I did I could hear the flutter of my child's heartbeat and the steady sound of my mates. She was safe, my child was safe. "Mhm, Paul? Baby, what's wrong?" I smiled lightly at her tired voice and leaned down to kiss her. "Don't worry about it baby- just a bad dream that's all." She nodded and pulled me back down so I was lying next to her again. "My wolf, my mate." She whispered cuddling into my side. I kissed the top of her head and wrapped my arm around her waist pulling her closer, her baby bump safely cushioned between us. "My mate, my life." I whispered before falling back to sleep knowing that my mate and my child were safe.
