Chapter: EpilogueFive Years Later “Go, Dom!!!” Nine-year-old Trevor Calisto was cheering on his cousin from the fences as the boy broke into a gentle canter on his horse. Both their fathers were in the corral coaching him along the little ride. He chose the 8month old Friesian Colt a day ago when his father Killian told him it was time to get his own horse. Vincent bred top of the line horses, and the Friesian breeds he bred strictly for family. The colt was black as night with a calm demeanor matching his new master's attitude. The two boys were excited. Now they can both ride together around the ranch. “I wanna see.” Trevor looked behind him and rolled his eyes at his baby cousin. She hated being called a baby. At three years old, Kadence Wesson was a force to be reckoned with, everyone doted on the only girl on the ranch. The princess. That’s what Dominic calls her. She was stubborn as her mama and thoughtful as her daddy. He heard the grown-ups say that’s a dangerous combination in a woman. His

Chapter: 28.Two months, One week later. "What part of taking it easy you don't understand angel?" Killian was seated in a chair watching his woman work on her laptop in the hospital bed. Currently, she was eight months and one week into her pregnancy. Earlier in the day she was complaining about pains and brushed it off as Braxton Hicks. He was worried and still called it in. When it was coming too frequently he got a stubborn Mikel to the hospital. It turns out Peanut was impatient and wanted out of his mommy's tummy. Killian was amazed by how easy she was taking it all for her first time. With each contraction that came, she simply laid back in the bed and clutch onto the rails till the pain passed. During a few, he will sit with her but she said that she will need him for the main event. Only his angel can surprise him in every way. Studying her in his corner he was damn proud of himself. Therapy for his PTSD was helping and he was opening up more to his family. They will accompany him to

Chapter: 27.The steady beating of her heart and her baby on the machine was soothing to Mikel but she was still worried. On her way to the hospital, she came in the ambulance and was given a full recap of what happened by Maggie. Her heart rate escalated when she was told about Killian's episode. Her blood pressure spiked and she began to worry immensely. Maggie and the EMT got her to calm down enough to keep the baby stable.Throughout all the examinations and consultations her mind was on Killian. When she got back to her room after the last ultrasound Kelsey and Vincent were there with equally worried expressions."What did they say? Can I go see him?" she asked after they fussed over her and got her side of the story."He's still out," Kelsey answered avoiding Mikel's eyes."Something went wrong didn't it?" she asked gravely."He woke up before they reached the hospital and had to restrain him. They actually have to keep him asleep, his sedative intake was doubled. I..I..." Kelsey couldn't co

Chapter: 26.Mikel was locked away in her office at the clinic eyeing her birthday gift. No, it wasn't her birthday but the gift she refused to open after learning of his death.Vincent gave it to her two days ago before he officially left the Drummond ranch. Apparently, it fell out of her bag where she kept it for months and he held on to it."When the time is right you will open it."Apparently, he knew what the rectangular box held. A lot has been going on at the ranch and the clinic was her personal haven. It was the middle of the day and her animal patient visit was down to either four or six. "Two more months till you're here peanut. The doctor said three but I have a feeling you're gonna be hasty and reckless as your father," she said softly to her round belly."I wonder what you will look like. Will you have his eyes or mine? Brown hair like mommy or daddy's blonde hair. All I know is you're gonna be perfect." Her attention went back to the beautifully wrapped present. The pain and sadness

He never thought he will be living a life away from what he loved - racing.He came searching in Montana for peace and to support Mikel. They both lost a large piece of their heart and can only lean on each other during that grief. It was conflicting when he found out about the budding relationship between her and Killian, but, that person was helping her heal. She had someone new and that man loved her with everything. Vincent expected nothing less when it came to Mikel. She was lovable in most aspects.In the office, he held the keys to his own place in his hands. Killian helped him in finding his own piece of heaven and with Mikel's blessing, he signed on the dotted line."Still too good to be true huh?" Mikel's voice rang out in the office."Yeah."He watched on as she sat on the sofa and kicked her legs up. "I remember when you joked about settling down," she commented."T

Chapter: 24.A month has passed since the showdown with the mama witches. That was the name of the scenario thanks to Kelsey's creative mind.It has been a wonderful month by far. A lot has happened which made Mikel and Killian's world much brighter. The happiness of the other members of their family was contagious.The first wave of brightness that fell upon the house was from Kelsey and Corey.Earlier in the monthKelsey was nervous about the decision, more like a statement she was about to make. Not one to be waiting for help or be that damsel in distress, Kelsey Drummond has always been tough. Her strength and resilience were taken differently by both sexes.Women saw her as a tomboy, a woman who wants to be in the man's world way too much. Friendships between her and the women in town were strained. Acquaintances are more the label of their relationship. They were mildly jealous of her due to her beauty, a subtle grace that was shown in her walk, and even when she rides. Her brown eyes and da
