Kellan: A Military Shifter Secret Baby Romance (Alpha Squad Book 1) Read online

  I finally found her sitting on our bed staring at the wall. She looked lost in thought, her face pale and her eyes round. I sat down beside her and took her hand in mine. She jumped and looked around at me. She hadn’t noticed me come in.

  “Hey,” I said. “Are you okay?”

  “I’m good,” she said with a determined nod. “Just about to get ready for work.”

  “Before you do,” I said. My hands began to shake as I stood up in front of her. I slipped my hand back inside my pocket and held tightly to the ring box. “There’s something I need to ask you.”

  “Okay,” Julia said uncertainly. “What is it?”

  I pulled the ring from my pocket and slowly lowered myself down onto one knee. When I opened the box, Julia’s eyes flew open even wider. She stared at the ring like she’d never seen one before. Her eye flicked back up to mine.

  “Julia,” I said slowly. “This past year with you and Lili has been the best year of my life. I never want to lose either of you. Ever. I love you so much. I can’t even tell you how much. Will you marry me?”

  The question hung between us for a few seconds. Everything was silent. We were both frozen in that moment. Even the air felt stiff, as if the world itself was suspended just waiting for Julia’s answer.

  Tears filled her eyes slowly as she pushed herself away from me. She stood up and paced around the room, not looking at me. Fear flooded my veins as I watched her.

  “Julia?” I asked. “Julia?”

  “I’m pregnant,” she said, spinning around to face me. “I just found out this morning. I was going to tell you tonight, but after you proposed I thought…”

  I didn’t let her finish her sentence. I skipped over to her and picked her up. I kissed her fiercely, laughing and spinning her around in circles.

  “A cub?!” I asked. My bear roared with happiness.

  “Yes,” she chuckled. “Does this mean you’re happy?”

  “Does this mean you’re saying yes?” I asked quickly.

  Julia didn’t hesitate. “Yes. Of course. Yes.”

  My cub, my fiancée, and now a baby.

  My mission was finally complete.

  I love to write about romance that isn’t your typical love story. My books allow my imagination to run free and explore every possible idea I have. That makes writing less like a job and more like a fantasy come to life.
