Long Awaited Mate Is A Baby novel Chapter 6

I laugh along with her and toss her again. Her laugh echos through the room.

I play with her a little longer until she gets tired and falls asleep in my arms. Peter and Lucy still haven't returned yet, and I know when they do well have some things to discuss. Starting with how I won't be able to stay away from their daughter for long.

I watch my angels face as she sleeps in my arms. She's as light as a feather, but I can feel her warmth spreading through every inch of my body, starting from where her head is placed against my chest.

She breaths in slow even rhythms, not at all stirring.

She's as calm as can be.

I don't know how much time passes before Peter and Lucy walk in, and frankly, I don't care. Any amount of time I get ri spend with my mate is special, and I'll always treasure it.

And I don't let Her go, even with her parents wak in and sit in the Two chairs beside my hospital bed.

"How are you feeling?" Lucy asks.

"Better," I respond, not taking me eyes from Allie.

Peter sighs. "I'm so sorry, Kaden. I overreacted and I never meant to harm you by using the silver frames, I just wanted to protect my daughter and-"

I cut him off with a glare. He shuts up immediately.

"I don't need your apology, Peter. I appreciate it, but it's not needed. What happened is in the past now, and I'd much rather focus on what's going to happen in the future. Mainly how you will not be able to keep me away from Allie. I'm telling you now that that will not happen. Not now, not ever. Understood?"

Peter flinches back from my hard glare and Alpha tone. I didn't mean to use it on him, But he needs to know that I mean business, and that no one will separate me from what's rightfully mine.

"Yes, I understand," he murmurs.

"Good. I am open to certain arrangements dealing with Allie, and I know that I won't be able to see her all the time. That's fine. But you will not try and keep her away from me, and if it's my time to see her, I will."

Peter and Lucy both nod at me, their faces slightly pale.

"I can work with that," Peter vows.

"You'll have to," I growl. "Its not up for negotiation,"

Inside, I know I'm being too hard on Peter, but my wolf is still angry at him for keeping Allie away from us, and right now, he's in full control. I can't stop him from saying the truth: Even if it is a little harsh.

"Fridays," I answer without pause. I'll want to end my week with a good note.

They nod and has their mind-link again. Then they turn to me.

"Are you fine with Sundays and Wednesdays being just us three?" Lucy asks.

I nod. "I think I can work with that,"

Lucy breaks into a huge smile and gets up to hug me around my shoulders as beat she can. At least She tries to. Its not exactly the easiest thing with Allie still on my lap.

Lucy steps back and Peter shakes my hand. "I hope we can move past our earlier disagreement," he says.

I nod stiffly. "It's already forgotten," My wolf scoffs at my words but I ignore him. I have to try and get along with my mates dad.

Peter nods to Allie. "Thanks for watching her. I know she'll be safe with you,"

"Always," I vow. Allie will never be in harms way as long as she's with me. I won't allow it.
