Now come on, let\u2019s go see what our kids are doing.\u201d Our kids. Our\u2026 Fucking hell. He\u2019s not making this easy, is he? \u201cLore\u2014\u201d He stands up and catches my wrist, pulling me up as he slides his hand to hold mine.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s almost enough to forget the little situation outside with Rose bringing him a drink and flirting with him. Almost. OceanofPDF.com \u201cWhy are you both looking at me like that?\u201d I ask Ora and Xanthe, who are sitting there with their arms crossed, staring daggers at me. Atiana went up with the kids to give them a shower after they jumped in the pool, and when I offered to help, she told me she\u2019s fine. \u201cDo you want Atiana?\u201d Ora asks. \u201cOf course, I fucking do.\u201d I\u2019m not sitting here with blue balls for nothing.<\/p>\n<p>I used my hand this week\u2014my hand. I can\u2019t remember the last time I did that. It must have been before I started dating Atiana. \u201cThen why did you flirt with Rose in front of her?\u201d Xanthe asks, frowning. \u201cI didn\u2019t. She brought me a drink, and I said thank you,\u201d I reply, my brows furrowing. \u201cDid Rose say something?\u201d \u201cNo, she didn\u2019t have to say anything.<\/p>\n<p>We all saw her, so comfortable with you and kissing your cheeks. If she acted like that with War\u2026\u201d Ora narrows her blue eyes to evil slits. I mean, I want to point out that she is War\u2019s old lady, and they are engaged and about to have a baby, but I want all of that with Atiana, even if we aren\u2019t there yet. I settle on. \u201cWe aren\u2019t even together yet.\u201d Xanthe shakes her head like she\u2019s disappointed in me. \u201cAnd with that attitude, you never will be.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou know what, Lore? Maybe you should let Atiana go. She deserves someone who will stop flirting with anything in a skirt and give her all their attention. Didn\u2019t you say Suit was showing interest in her? Or what about Curse or Rune? They are all tattoo artists and would have a lot in common.\u201d \u201cWhat the fuck?<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>No part of this book may be reproduced in any form or by any electronic or mechanical means, including information storage and retrieval systems, without written permission from the author, except for the use of brief quotations in a book review.

It looks like his pull-out method in the heat of the moment has finally caught up with us. I don\u2019t know how he\u2019s going to take it. No, that\u2019s a lie. I do know. He\u2019s going to hate it. He\u2019s never wanted kids, at least not now. The timing isn\u2019t great, but I know deep in my soul that I want this baby.<\/p>\n<p>And if he wants nothing to do with us, then I guess I\u2019m going to have to do it alone. The thought of being without Hunter has tears pooling in my eyes. Yeah, he\u2019s wild. But I love him. He\u2019s my first boyfriend, and the one I lost my virginity to. I was his first as well. We\u2019ve grown together, and slowly we\u2019re going to build the life we\u2019ve dreamed of. Hunter wants to join the military, and I want to become an art teacher.<\/p>\n<p>We can do both of those with a baby, right? We will make it work. We always make it work. I know that we\u2019re young, but Hunter and I will last forever. He\u2019s my person.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><em>This is a short excerpt from the opening of &ldquo;&rdquo; by Unknown, quoted for review and introduction purposes.
