Dylan POV
“Ok...” | couldn't tear my eyes away from my fidgeting hands, and my pointer fingers nail once again found itself
between my teeth as | anxiously began to nibble at it. “Please, Just please don’t judge me...” | took a deep
breath before looking him in the eye and blurting out the thought most prominent on my mind. “I'm pregnant.”
| swear the man had even stopped breathing for moment as he allowed my words to sink in. Eventually after a
minute. of just staring he managed to utter a question, in the form of a single word.
“What?!” His fist tightened around the grass that lay next to him as he looked over the lake we had just gotten
out of It was just a guess but | was fairly certain that he wasn’t exactly expectingto say that. “How do you
know?”
| swallowed thickly and shrugged my shoulders. “I don’t know for sure, but there's not really any other
explanation. | knew it would happen sooner or later, King Josh never thought about using any form of protection

kings abuse. “He just wasn’t very careful when it cdown to it.”
There was a long pause as his eyes swam with all the possibilities, it was as if he was imaginingpregnant,
and everything that would follow. Eventually his gaze left the lake and lookedin the eye again as we
continued to freeze on the grass. Well, | was freezing, he was a wolf with natural body heat.
“Alright...” The man was calm, but even if you didn’t know him the quiet unexpressed rage he was showing in his
eyes was evident enough. Was he mad at me? He shouldn't be. | couldn’t stop the king from doing anything, no
matter how hard | tried. There was genuinely no way of preventing this from happening. “For now, Let's not jump
to any conclusions, we can see the doctor first thing tomorrow and get him to take a look at you. You should
technically have had a physical examination upon your arrival anyway, given everything that has happened.”
Why was he saying we? Did he intend to helpthrough the pregnancy? Or did he, at the very least want to be
withfor the inevitable decision I'd have to make. “Don’t worry too much until we know for sure. Ok? And if
it’s discovered that you are, then we will discuss your options and then you can decide on how to proceed.
Please don’t stress just yet.”
His response to my news was everything | didn’t know | wanted. | was shocked at how calm and understanding
he was,
| thought he would jufor not accepting the king, | thought he would tell| had to return to the palace
immediately. Instead he saw my point of view, and knew that whatever happened, it would be my decision to

Without thinking | turned my body to face him and wrapped my arms around the man’s neck, resting my chin on
his shoulder in a tight embrace. | had been carrying the thought of pregnancy alone for weeks and only now had
| felt close enough to someone to be able to voice it.
Not only that, but he was nothing but supportive, there was no distain or judgement, only support. He would
never know how grateful | was for that.
My arms tightened around him slightly when his own wrapped around my thin waist. | was freezing from the
water, but his embrace warmedup ten fold and gavea certain sense of strength | didn’t actually realize |

Chapter 174
“Of course | will... I will never let you go through anything else alone. I'm here, Dyl. Even if you don’t want me, |
will always be here.” If | was ever able to feel content, if | was ever allowed the tto feel safe or free, if | was
ever allowed to choose who I could be with, then the only thing | would ever want in this miserable world, would
be him. “Sorry... | shouldn’t have shortened your name, | know you prefer Dylan,”
“No, it's actually ok. You can callDyl.” I liked it, | actually did like it, only from his lips though. To everyone
else 1 would only accept Dylan. Tve been worrying about this for so long.” | admitted to him which caused the
man to frown
deeply.
