---- My eyes snapped up. "Are you?" Nate silently studied me for a few seconds. "I am," he finally answered. "so am I," I told him. "I just can't believe it." "You didn't think you would be able to get pregnant?" He tilted his head to the side as his brows dipped into a frown. I shook my head and carefully thought over my words as I got more comfortable on the couch. Mason had said at the very beginning that I could get pregnant and that the chances of me carrying dragon babies were big.
"Tf 1'm honest with you, I've never really thought about having kids. I never thought that I would find the right man for me and get married." I smiled at him. "Don't look at me like that. I was struggling to make ends meet. Meeting a man and starting a family was the least of my worries." "And now you don't have to worry about any of those things anymore. We'll take care of you. Always." Standing , I made my way over to him. Nate pushed his chair back as I rounded his desk.
When I stopped in front of him, he gripped my hand and tugged me closer. Once I was settled on his lap, he cupped my cheeks ---- and pulled my lips to his. The kiss was slow and was meant to be innocent, but my body wanted more. I pressed my hands to his shoulders and pulled back slightly to suck in a shaky breath. Nate's hands dropped to my hips. "T've already placed the order for the new machine," he said softly.

"It should be here in time for your next appointment." "Can you really hear the baby's heartbeat?" He nodded and touched his ear. "I have very good hearing." "Wish I had your hearing." "T don't want to change anything about you." "Do you think I have witch blood running through me?" "About that." Nate cleared his throat and sat up. " Nalan emailed me. She sent me a picture." I frowned.
"Tt's your family tree." Pushing the chair closer to the desk again, he pulled open one of the drawers and reached inside to pull out some papers. ---- "Your great, great, great aunt was a witch. It was passed down to most females in the family, but unfortunately , your grandmother and mother never inherited the gift." "That means neither did I?" He nodded. "These are the names of your ancestors.
If you want, we can do some research and see what we can find of them." I stared down at the family tree. My eyes locked on Mom's name. Reaching up, I pressed shaky fingers to the ink. "Tf magic runs in the family, does that mean that there's a possibility that our kids could inherit the... gift?" Nate shrugged. "It wouldn't matter.
We will still love them." "T'd still like to learn more about my family." "Nalan said to tell you to email all your questions to her and she will answer them as best as she can." He paused. "She claims her mate is being an ass and won't allow her to leave his side." "Maybe I can go visit her." Nate instantly tensed. "No," he growled. "You're not leaving this castle." ---- "You're going to keep me locked inside?" "Tf I have to." He suddenly smiled.
"I can think of a lot of ways to keep you occupied." I wanted to argue, but then I remembered how easily something could happen while we traveled . The last thing I wanted was for our baby to get hurt. "When do you want to tell the others?" My lips parted but it was another voice that answered. "Tell us what?"
