“I love you too, baby. More than you’ll ever know.”
I smile softly as he kisses my forehead, but he’s wrong.
I do know how much he loves me.
I feel it every day. I’m reminded of it every moment, by his constant touches and kisses, even by the memories of all he’s done to make this life with me possible.
When he says he loves me more than anything, I know he means it because he’s proven it.
When I feel safe in his arms, I know it’s because I am.
This man would destroy anything and anyone to protect me without batting an eye, and I’m not scared by that anymore.
I’m grateful.
For the first time in my life, I feel protected—and it’s not some bullshit story I have to tell myself. I really am.
And if he’s willing to protect me with his life, I know he’ll protect our baby the same way.
He’s going to be the best daddy.
My heart fills up, and I curl closer to him as I yawn.
Carrying his baby is exhausting, but it makes me so happy.
I situate myself so my tummy is pressed against his torso. I know the baby is far too little to feel move, but I like the idea of snuggling her between us.
Well, I hope it’s a girl.
I don’t think I’m prepared to have a little boy with Killian’s eyes and charm running around just yet.
I also know in my bones that seeing Killian love and protect our little girl the way no one ever loved or protected me will make me fall even deeper in love with him. I don’t know where I’ll put it all, but I look forward to finding the space.
