shock of what had happened, and then the three of us would go shopping for all the stuff we needed for the apartment.

Just like that, we were putting what had happened behind us, and truthfully, I was kind of relieved. I didn’t want to think about the evil I had been surrounded with for the past eight years. Now, I only wanted to concentrate on the new family I’d been given thanks to falling for Max Reid.

Max

Four Years Later

I lowered the car I’d just finished changing the oil in and then had one of the prospects who was interning at the garage drive it out of the bay. Walking into the shop, I gave my sister the slip for the customer.

“Unc!” Finn yelled from where he was playing behind the counter. “Is my new baby cousin born yet?”

Lexa, who had her five-month-old daughter, Tali, strapped to her chest in one of those wrap things, shot me an eye roll as she punched in the report on the computer in front of her. The beautiful little replica of my sister was sound asleep with the sound of her mother’s heart as her lullaby. I doubted the baby girl would have even flinched if someone drove their car through the front window. She was a hard sleeper and being cradled against Lexa the way she currently was tended to be her favorite place in the universe.

For the past few months, Finn asked me that same question every time he saw me or his aunt Delaney. And each time, I had to disappoint him by telling him, “Not yet, bud. But soon.”

At least, I hoped so. Delaney was a week past her due date and so miserable that she couldn’t find a comfortable position, no matter what she did. Sitting up. Propped body pillows on either side of her. Being held by me. She was getting cranky because she couldn’t sleep from the discomfort of our son putting pressure on her lower back and other places.

Thankfully, she was at Mom’s today instead of working in the office doing all of our orders and the books. After she’d gotten her GED the summer we’d gotten married, she’d started taking business classes at Trinity and began working at the shop. I’d told her she didn’t ever have to work if she didn’t want to, but she hated sitting around doing nothing. She was stubborn and didn’t want anyone to think she was with me only because of what I could give her.

No one had ever thought that, or if they had, they’d known better than to run their mouth. Not only would they have had me to deal with, but also Mom and Aunt Kelli as well. Plus, every other member of our family, River and Lexa both topping the list of those overly protective of my little treasure.

“I’m taking off,” I informed my sister. “If you need anything, the prospect is shadowing Trigger for the rest of the day.”

Lexa gave me a smile. “Give Delaney a kiss for me. Let me know if anything changes. I promised I would call Tavia as soon as there was activity suggesting Ronan is on his way.”

“She should just wait and fly out at the end of the week when they come to pick up Nova for the summer,” I grumbled.

“You’re just grumpy because you know everyone is going to be gushing over Delaney, and you won’t get any cuddle time with your wife and newborn son.”

I pressed my lips together, because she wasn’t wrong. I knew the second Delaney went into labor, I would be lucky if I got to hold her hand with how all the women in my family had been acting lately. Mom and Kelli were already keeping me away from my treasure for most of the day as it was. When she went into labor, they were both supposed to be in the delivery room with us, and between the two of them, they took over my girl.

It wasn’t that I didn’t like that she was getting pampered by everyone. I loved that they were making her first pregnancy so special for her. But fuck if I didn’t want a few hours alone to just hold my beautiful wife—and, when he arrived, Ronan too.

Picking up my keys, I gave Finn a fist bump before walking out the back door and climbing into the driver’s seat of my SUV. For the last three months, I’d been mostly driving it around rather than my bike so I could take Delaney to and from wherever she needed to go each day. Mom, Kelli, and River were always trying to take her to her doctor’s appointments or shopping for the baby’s room in our new house just a block over from Lexa’s place, but those three had gotten an earful from me. Didn’t they trust me to do any of that stuff? And hey, I wanted to be at all of her prenatal appointments. I got a kick out of hearing Ronan’s heartbeat at each visit.

Not to mention, I had to make sure the fucking doctor prick didn’t linger when he was examining my wife’s cervix or whatever the fuck he was doing when he was down there. The guy was new to the area, had taken over for the local OB-GYN not long after River had her own baby boy, Rocco, and I needed to make sure he understood that Delaney Reid was only a patient and not someone he should even chance taking a second look at if he wanted to spend his life delivering more babies in Creswell Springs.

It wasn’t like I was the only one to make sure the fucker understood that. Hell, Ben had been more than a little vocal when Lexa was pregnant with Tali. Not to mention Lyric when Mila had been pregnant with her second set of twins, Israel and Ireland. The doctor should have gotten the hint by the time Delaney became his patient, but no,
