“Is that okay?” he repeated.

Honestly, at this point, I think I broke his brain.

Sitting up, I crawled onto his lap. I knew this news would come as a shock, but I didn’t know if I could handle it if he was upset.

Cupping his face, I held his gaze. “Hey, I love you.”

“Are you sure?”

When I nodded, his face morphed into one of pure joy. Pulling my face to his, he kissed me with so much love that I felt it all the way down to my toes. Breaking away, he asked, “What made you change your mind?”

Happy tears welled in my eyes. “It took a near-death experience to teach me that tomorrow isn’t always guaranteed, and I realized that I didn’t want to keep saying someday to a life I could have today. I’m ready to live my life to the fullest in the moment we have now. With you. With our family.”

“A family. God, do you know how incredible it feels to say that?” Reaching between us, he placed his hand on my bare lower abdomen. “Our baby. Tell me I’m not dreaming.”

Placing my hand on top of his, I reassured him. “You’re not dreaming.”

Suddenly, his eyes went wide in panic. “Oh my God!”

“What?”

“I probably scrambled its brains with Wanda!” I couldn’t stop myself as I busted out laughing as he reprimanded, “It’s not funny!”

Taking a moment to come down, I rolled my eyes. “Honey, it’s smaller than a grain of rice right now. Wanda won’t harm it. You would know that if you really read those baby books like you claimed.”

Narrowing his eyes, he pinned me beneath him on the bed. “Oh, is that how it’s going to be? Are you itching for another punishment so soon, Princess?”

“God, yes,” I breathed.

“You’re lucky I’m in the best mood of my life because what my Princess wants, my Princess gets.”

As my brand-new husband promised all kinds of sexual delights, my only wish was that I could go back in time and let that little girl with the pigtails know that it would all turn out all right in the end. I needed that fire he created within me to push me to become the woman I was today, and now, the only place we drove each other crazy was in each other’s arms. The future was looking very bright indeed.
