I reach my woman, sitting to her other side. She smiles at me, an exhausted smile after the many hours she labored to bring our son into the world. Our first cub. He’s the prettiest kid I’ve ever seen, the very same dark eyes Robin has, with thick tresses of hair on his head. I feel the shifter inside him pulsing like a heart. A heart calling to his father.
Cradling his head in a hand, I meet Robin’s eyes, full of love. So much love I could explode. I kiss her softly, and she releases a sigh.
“How are you, sweetheart?” I ask her, my voice soft as to not wake our baby.
“Tired,” she says with a smile. “But I’m all right.”
“You’re so strong,” I say with awe in my voice. I won’t hide it. She makes me so damn proud. This woman, so small next to me, has done what no man could ever manage. She has developed and delivered a new life. I held her hand throughout the entire ordeal, but she’s done it a hundred percent by herself. The pain, the agony. The bliss. It’s all her. “I’m stunned by how strong you are.”
She shoots me a grateful, loving glance. Then she turns to Brianna. The girl still watches her new brother-slash-cousin, big eyes as she studies every tiny move. “Bri,” Robin calls. “Would you like to hold him?”
Brianna’s eyes snap up to her, widening. “Are you sure? I don’t want to hurt him.”
I get up from the bed, walking to her. “Sit here, darling.” I bring a chair closer and she sits down, her back stiff. Taking our baby from Robin’s hands, I gently place him on Brianna’s, shifting her arms so she holds him right. There’s adoration on her features as she gazes into the babe, then shyly raises a hand to brush his hair away.
When I meet Robin’s eyes, I know she’s feeling the same way I do. So much joy it overwhelms. Her eyes glaze with emotion, and I can’t help but feel the same gratitude clogging my throat.
She’s brought so much happiness into my life. I’ll never get over the fact she’s my mate. My true love. The one person I’ll ever want.
Today’s the happiest day of my life. But I know tomorrow will be the same. Every day with her is a new favorite day, and our love only grows.
And it will forever flourish.
