Page 68 of Sugar Baby
Only the ragged pants of Atlas breaks it.
“What?” I ask, my voice high-pitched, as I process his words.
Impregnated?
I’m pregnant?
“Here,” Trent’s voice cuts into my shock. “I’m here.”
We all turn towards his voice. He is standing close by with Nico at his side.
“You came back,” I whisper. “I didn’t think you would.”
He strides over and ignoring Atlas, who is locked in me by his knot, Trent grasps my chin. “I needed time to process everything as you laid it out. It was…a lot.” He smiles, and I return it. “But I would never leave you, Sugar baby.” He drops a kiss on my lips. “A baby?”
I turn my head to Carter. “How can you know so soon?”
“My sense of smell is heightened. The sweetness of your slick, of your scent, is deep and powerful and raw.”
“Oh,” I say faintly.
“Are you happy?” Trent asks carefully.
I blink back tears of happiness. “Yes, yes, I’m happy. What about all of you?” I meet Nico’s eyes, seeing the torrent of emotions that he refuses to express in any other way.
“Your alphas are all assembled here, baby girl. They must speak now and agree to this pack, agree to me as their prime and you as their mate. Agree to cherish and love you and the child you carry as if it was their own.”
“Do you?” I ask quietly, still stuck on Atlas’s knot.
“Yes.”
I look at Cain. He nods. “Yes.”
“Atlas?”
“Fuck, yeah.”
I giggle as that is so him to cut the tension.
“Nico?” Carter asks.
I hesitantly look up at the stoic, taciturn alpha. “Always,” he murmurs. “You are my everything, and I will take whatever you give me, Sophia.”
I smile and then look at Trent. “Are you ready for this?”
He nods. “I know I said it wasn’t in my plans, but that was before I met you. You changed my whole world, Sugar baby. And now we are having a baby. Yes, I want you and this whole pack dynamic, which is weird, but we will find our way. Together.”
I let the tears fall freely and feel Atlas’s knot deflate. He withdraws from me, and I briefly wrap my arms around Trent before I turn to Carter.
I cup his cheek and kiss him softly. “Yes. I want what you are offering to me.”
He smiles that slow sexy smile and then pulls back.
“Where were you two?” he asks Trent and Nico. “We have been waiting for you to commit to Sophia as her alphas and her as our omega.”
“Business,” Trent says.
“You need to come inside,” Nico adds. “Now.”
