GoodNovelChapter 174 VALERIA My body was exhausted, not just physically but mentally as well.
Ever since I was tricked into fighting Aldric on that cliff, up until the moment everything aroundfell apart, I had been tense and stressed, overthinking my options, fearing the future, not knowing how to survive in the present.
I dont know where I am or what has happened.
My confused mind reconnects with reality, but something immediately comes to mindlm pregnant.
Scared, I shift my senses, checking my belly where my pups healthy life continues to grow and develop.
llet out a sigh of relief.
That was the most important thing, and then I focus on the person beside me.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSomeone is breathing behind me, a warm body, much larger than mine.
Im lying down, blinking as I try to focus on the strange furniture in the room.
The hand around my waist tightens gently, possessively, pullingcloser to the broad chest, mergingwith the powerful body.
Vale, are you awake? The rough, familiar male voice pours into my mind.
The man behindtenses, and I feel him shifting, trying to turnonto my back.
Ido as he wants and move into position on the bed where we are resting.
---- His beautiful face, with worried gray eyes, looks atintently.
Little one, answer me.
Does anything hurt? Do you feel any discomfort in your belly? Id better call the sorceress...
No, Im fine, Aldric.
Im fine, and so is the baby, I stop him as he starts to get up.
Hes lying on his side, almost on top of me.
I lift my hand and take one of his reddish strands between my fingers, then move to caress his beard.
He looks somewhat haggard, his furrowed brow full of worry.
His eyes close, and he leans into my touch when I stroke his face.
This is my man.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI dont know how I ever imagined living without him by my side.
Youre going to turn into a wrinkled old man if you keep this up, say running my fingers over his furrowed brow.
He lowers his forehead to press it against mine, sighing, his broad hand descending to caress my belly tenderly. All his love, the promises for us, pour through the strengthened bond that connects us.
Tve been so scared, baby.
Ever since I realized on that cliff how wrong I was about you, not a second O he has passed without fear, O confesses against my lips, and Im even surprised that a man as proud as him would speak this way. T feared for your life, feared your rejection, losing you forever because I was a fool.
His tormented eyes open as he carefully lays his body over mine.
Tlove the feeling of him dominating all my space, skin to skin from head to toe.
