Chapter 6

I was so afraid now that I didn't know what to think. But I was glad that Kirill was being cautious. The last thing I wanted to do was have Jason find him again. I didn't want Kirill to be taken away from me again.

I could barely sleep at night now. I was just so afraid. Kirill told me not to worry and that everything would be ok. But that's what he said before and we both knew what had happened. Not to mention that I was afraid for my daughter's sake because I didn't want her getting kidnapped. I don't know what I would do if my only child was taken away from me.

But that was just the half of it. There was something that I hadn't mentioned to Kirill. I had gotten pregnant again…and I wasn't sure if I should tell him or not because now I was really scared.

The next morning I got up bright and early. Kirill and Katarina were still sleeping so I went downstairs and made me so breakfast and tried not to wake them. Well,that didn't work because about 15 minutes later Kirill came running down the stairs.

"There you are,"he said as he found me on the couch. "I thought you'd left."

"I wouldn't have any reason to."

He smiled and kissed me.

"Kirill…"I paused,not knowing if I should go on.

"Yes?"

"There's something I need to tell you." I looked down and frowned.

"What is it?"he asked as he looked me straight in the eye.

"I'm pregnant again."

"What?"

"I found out yesterday."

He smiled and hugged me. I finally felt relieved. "I can't believe it."

"I can't either."

"We should get married soon."

"When?"

"How about in a month."

"Can we do that?"

He kissed me. "It'll be fine."

I went silent and looked down again.

"What is it?"

"What if he comes?"

"He won't."

"You don't know that."

"I'll make sure that nothing happens Nicole."

"Promise me…

He pulled me closer to him. "I promise,"he kissed me forehead. "I would never let anything happen to you or Katarina. You know that."

"Thank you."

"I love you Nicole."

"I love you too Kirill."

"Are you going to be ok?"

I nodded. "Yeah."

At that moment we heard Katarina. "Looks like she's awake."

We got up from the couch and went upstairs.
