Zoey
I looked down trying to think of what to say. How do I explain everything? I tried to swallow down the huge lump in my throat. Then I just started the words came out so fast I wasn't sure if he could keep up by I had to get it out before I chickened out.
"Yes, Stark I'm so sorry. I didn't want you to find out this way. I didn't want to have to hurt you like that it made me sick to let him touch me. I-I understand if you don't want to be around me anymore. I'm sorry I did what I had to do to make sure that you and everyone else were safe even if it meant hurting me." When I looked up I noticed all my friends were gone it was just me and Stark I guess they realized we had a lot to talk about.
He pulled me tight to him. I laid my head into his chest and he had one arm around me and the other smoothing my hair. I could stay like this forever. It was my favorite feeling to be safe in my warrior's arms. I was so scarred he was going to be angry. So I just stayed there quite worrying and not wanting to speak. I should have known my feelings would give me away.
"Why are you still so scared you did it you killed Kalona"
"No it wasn't me that killed him it was us our love our baby. Aren't you angry with me?"
"How could I be angry you just told me you're having my baby? Zoey I have always loved you but didn't think I ever deserved you. Now I know you love me the same way and I'm not just an escape for you through the horrible things that have happened."
"I think I have loved you since the first time we really talked the night you died. It felt like you were a part of my soul and I wanted to be with you forever. You are not angry with me though for letting Kalona touch me. I didn't want to do it but I knew that was the only way to get close enough to him to break him. I never wanted you to have to witness."
"No I'm not mad. I was before I knew what you were doing when I thought you had fallen for him. When I thought maybe I lost you I wanted to die rather than see you in his arms. But now I know you love me enough to destroy an immortal and to have my baby. How long have you known you were pregnant?"
"Well I guess I kinda knew the last week something was different about me. I was more tired and I didn't feel well but I just thought it was stress. Then two nights ago you fell asleep, I just laid there thinking about destroying Kalona the poem, and that we had been here for a month already. It hit me that I was several weeks late, but I been so preoccupied I never really gave it any thought. Then it all made sense I knew I loved you more than anything and I was going to have your baby. That's just what the poem was saying. I knew what to say to destroy him, but I couldn't tell you because you would have never been ok with it let me get close to him like that."
"This is just so much to take in I am so very happy. You must be terribly tired though maybe you should get some rest before we head back. I will go take care of our arrangements to return home. Since now thanks to you and your amazing strength things seem to be safe right now." He was right and I was very tired. So I went back to my room to lie down and rest while my Stark made our plans for returning home. It was strange to rest alone I have gotten so use to having my warrior next to me holding me while I slept.
Sorry but this seemed like a good stopping point. Not sure if I want to end here and start a new book or add a few more chapters first. Give me some feedback and I will decide. Also sorry if I don't post daily I am working on another book of my very own like a whole book. So I kinda go back and forth between the two stories.
