looked at me and gave me the smile I had been waiting
for.
“It happened,” she said,
matter-of-factly, pushing her glasses up on the bridge of her nose.
I practically leapt off the exam table to hug her. She didn’t seem
to appreciate that.
I didn’t care. I was
happy. Alexander’s baby was inside me. It had taken longer than I
thought it would, and it hadn’t come without some obstacles. But it
was here. I could give him what he wanted.
But my happiness in the
hours after I learned the news were tempered by small moments of
doubt. Moments where I wondered whether I was really strong enough
to do this — to carry another man’s baby and then hand it to him,
with no recourse.
I was able to keep myself
from despair, though, by thinking back to that night on the rooftop
and the story Alexander had shared. He didn’t know it yet, but he
had given me two gifts that night. One was the baby I now carried
inside me. The other was his truth.
I respected him so much
for that.
Standing in my apartment
as I got ready to head over to Atherstone Tower and share the news,
I let a hand drift over my stomach. I didn’t really feel anything
yet. But I knew everything would be different now.
Would he still want me?
Would he still hold me?
No , I reminded myself. That wasn’t what this was about. This
was about the gifts he had given me. His truth and his
child.
I breathed in deep and
stepped out the door of my apartment. It was time to tell him about
what I could now gift to him. It was time to tell Alexander
Atherstone that he’d soon be a father.

EXCERPT:
I was lost in the moment. The feeling of his
hands on my body, his lips against mine, all that heat we shared. I
had missed all of him so much.
But I snapped back to reality when I felt his
fingers working the tie on the back of my bikini top, pulling it
loose, right there, outside, on the cottage’s sun deck.
I pulled my lips away from his and
gasped.
“What are you doing?” I asked. “We can’t… not
here.”
I put a hand against my chest, holding my top
in place.
Robert smiled a devilish smile. “Why not
here?” he shrugged. “I’ve made a pretty good plan.”
“What?” I asked, as he resumed running his
hand over my body.
“We’re all alone. I arranged it all. The
staff have all gone.
