Wanted (Addicted Trilogy Book 3) (21 page)

What had threatened me the most over the years wasn’t Samuel, or
even his sister. It was the fear something bad was always lurking around the
corner. Being too engrossed in that way of thinking blocks out all the good
life has to offer.

“So, we’re going to have a baby?” he practically sang.

“Yes. We’re going to have a baby.” Although the words sounded
foreign to me, I was happier each time I said them.

As I laid my head on his chest later that evening, hearing his
heart beat in sync with my own, I traced the scar on his stomach. Without even
realizing he was doing it, his finger found the one on my shoulder. While our
fingertips danced over the puckered skin, I couldn’t help but think.

We both bore the scars of my past while our future grew inside
me.

The End
