Chapter 129: Bonus Story–Welcome Home-Part 1

*Mila*

Warm lips pressed to my cheek, pulling me from my dreams. My eyes fluttered open and I looked up at Soren’s smiling face.

“Good morning, sleepy head.”

He put his newspaper aside, curled an arm under my neck, leaned down and kissed me. His breath held the faintest hint of fresh coffee.

I’d never been a big coffee drinker. Especially now that I was pregnant. But I liked the scent on his breath. Then again, he always smelled amazing.

I lifted a hand and cupped Soren’s face, a bright flash catching my eye. Pulling back, I saw the ring on my finger and a smile tugged at my lips.

It had been three days since Soren proposed, and I still had to convince myself it wasn’t just my imagination!

“It’s really great to see you smiling this early in the morning,” Soren asked, pulling my attention back.

I shifted my eyes to the window. It was almost noon. I had been so tired lately because of the baby.

“Early in the morning?” I giggled.

“Early for you,” Soren laughed. “Did you have a good dream?”

I shook my head. “No, it isn’t any dream I’m smiling about.”

Soren arched an eyebrow.

“No dream could be more wonderful than the life I’m living now.” I grinned and lay back on the pillows.

How could I not be happy? Everything that I ever wanted, a mate, a home, a family, and a peaceful life. I’d gotten it all.

Not only that, my mate was the most handsome, protective, and doting man I’d ever met. I tilted my head and just couldn’t stop smiling as I watched him.

Soren chuckled lightly and my heart fluttered.

“We should get up and start the day.” He threw the covers back and held a hand out to me.

My eyes barely saw his hand, glancing at his full, naked body as he stood at the edge of the bed.

“Mila, I would love to spend the day in bed with you,” he enticed, smirking, “but today we have to go shopping.”

My face heated but I was curious. “For what?”

“Well, for the baby. We need to get the nursery ready. And… for whatever makes you happy.”

“Uhh… I’m already happy.” I stood up and kissed his coffee scented lips again, thinking perhaps I would be happier staying in bed for the day. “But I suppose we do need to get the nursery ready.”

“How about this dress?” He held up a sky-blue maxi dress with elegant neckline ties.
