I wrap my arms around her. “I’m the one who should be thanking you. You’ve given me everything. I don’t know how in the hell I got so lucky, but I’m glad I did. I’m never letting you go, solnishka. I love you so much.”
“I love you too,” she whispers against my lips.
I hold my wife and watch my brothers, knowing how goddamn lucky I am. We’re going to find my sister, and we’re going to do it together. None of us will quit until she’s back safe with us, and for the first time in a long time, I’m excited about the future. Emily kisses my neck and runs her hand through my hair, looking at me like I’m her whole world.
“I feel the same way about you, baby,” I tell her.
She smiles and kisses me again.

Emily
Two Weeks Later
“Holy shit,” I whisper, staring down at the stick I just peed on. Two pink lines, impossible to miss, stare right back up at me. My hand immediately goes to my stomach. A baby. I shouldn’t be surprised with the amount of sex we’ve been having, but I’m still standing here stunned, trying to process the fact that Roman and I are going to have a baby.
When I hear our bedroom door shut, I slam the stick in a drawer and try to not look as frazzled as I feel. I’m excited about the baby, thrilled even, but now all the doubts start creeping in. What if he’s not ready? What if the reality of a baby is too much while he’s still so worried about finding his sister? What if the first thing I see flash across his face is disappointment?
By the time I step out of the bathroom, I’m a wreck, and he sees it immediately. He rushes over and cups my face in his hands.
“Baby, what’s wrong? Are you sick?”
His green eyes fill with worry as he searches my face and body for some clue as to what’s wrong so he can fix it and make it better.
“You’re scaring the fuck out of me, solnishka. What’s wrong?”
“I’m pregnant,” I whisper, and he goes completely still.
“What?”
“I said I’m pregnant,” I whisper again, unable to get my voice any louder.
A huge smile spreads across his face as he lets out a relieved laugh. “My god, solnishka, you scared the hell out of me.” He laughs again and then brings his hand to my stomach. “A baby? Are you sure?”
I search his face, looking for any signs that he’s secretly unhappy about this, but his face is lit up with pure joy. He’s practically fucking beaming at me.
“I’m sure. Are you really happy about this?”
“Of course I am.” He picks me up and kisses me. “Are you?”
I clasp my hands behind his neck and imagine a baby with Roman’s green eyes and mischievous grin, and my heart melts at the thought.
“I am,” I tell him, my smile growing as big as his. “I was just worried that you wouldn’t be.”
“Solnishka, I’ve been trying to get you pregnant since the first time we fucked,” he says with a laugh. His lips graze mine as he cups the back of my head. “Every part of you is mine, little sun, and I can’t wait until your belly is swollen with our baby.”
I’m about to make a joke about how he may not feel that way when I’m so big I can’t even see my feet, but he’s already kissing me and snaking a hand down my yoga pants to cup my bare ass. I tighten my grip on him, kissing him like my life depends on it, and when he sets me down on the edge of the bed, I quickly lift my arms so he can pull my shirt off.
He unclasps my bra, tossing it aside before roughly yanking my pants off until I’m naked and looking up at him. He’s in a black T-shirt and jeans today, mouthwateringly sexy as usual, but it’s the look on his face that really gets me. The desire in his eyes is mixed with an all-consuming love for me, and there’s a peace in them as well, a calmness that didn’t exist before I met him. That look means everything to me.
I watch him undress, and then he’s spreading my legs when his clothes are on the floor. He steps closer, gripping my thighs in his strong hands and digging his fingers into my flesh.
“My beautiful pregnant wife,” he murmurs, leaning closer so he can kiss my stomach. “We’re going to be parents, solnishka.” His nose grazes my skin as he plants soft kisses all over my lower stomach. He whispers something in Russian, talking to our baby, and it’s the sweetest thing I’ve ever seen.
I run my fingers along his face, and when he meets my eyes, his soften when he sees how sentimental I’m getting. He gives my stomach one more kiss before bringing his body on top of mine.
“I love you, little sun.” He cups my face and slowly slides into me. “I love you so goddamn much, and you’ve made me happier than I ever thought possible.”
