Chapter 122

Cody I feel like a bomb has exploded in my chest, my heart is racing like it’s about to explode and the future looks very different to me now than it did just a few hours ago. I am still reeling from Luna’s news.I’ve let coach know that I will be in a few hours later than anticipated, needless to say he gave me some grief because we are flying out to Vancouver tonight. How can I even think about a game when I’ve got a total life changing situation going on? Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. I rake my hands through my hair and sit on the battered leather sofa in the lounge of my ranch house.My elbows are propped on my thighs, my head is on my hands as I think about this morning’s meeting and Imogen has messaged me back to ask what the hell is going on. Shit, damn and fuck is all I can think of right now.When I woke up at five thirty this morning and had my run and shower, some breakfast a protein shake, I did not expect that my life would change even more than it already has with a baby coming.Lun

Imogen“Say what?” Screeches Autumn down the phone. I’ve caught her luckily after working hours, not that she ever truly stops working. Now that she is heading for the vice presidency within her firm, she is busier than ever. “I need to sit down, Girl.”I can just imagine her in shock at this news. “Luna wants him to be the full-time parent and I am going to go check out some units in Austin for opening a new place. You know just breakfasts and lunches that way I will be free the rest of the day pretty much and can be there for Cody and the baby. He’s going to need all the help he can get.”“Honey, are you sure? This is a massive step; I mean all of a sudden you will be full on mom. You’re only in your early twenties. Holy cow.”“I’m sure, Autumn you know how much I love Cody, this is the most natural thing to do.”“Maybe but still. Fuck. I can’t get my head round it, why would Luna want to give up her kid? I just don’t get it. She was all over social about being a mommy and how she wa

Chapter 124

CodyWe are being slammed on the ice here and it’s a tough game. Coach has given us our pep talk during the recess and boy was he not happy. He told us we were playing like pansies, seriously? Is he for real? We’re killing our balls here, sweat is dropping of all of us and we are exhausted.“Hawk, Man I need you more defensive, they’re coming at us like canon balls, we’re fodder to them. Let’s get a bit more with the programme. What’s going on with you today?” I ask him. He shrugs. “Don’t give me a fucking shrug I need confidence; something is going on care to share it?”Atlas sits on the bench next to me and shakes his head. “Yeah, c’mon Hawk your game is off today, we’re sucking and we’ve the ability to paste these guys. I’m not getting it.”Hawk blows out. “Darla has left me, said something about needing some space.” Fuck, that sucks. Darla has been his girlfriend from what I understand for the last six years. Not just his girlfriend they are engaged.“What like did she break off th

Chapter 125

ImogenIt’s so late and really, I ought to go to sleep but after watching the game on my small television in the apartment and getting into bed, I started reading and once I am stuck in an Elsie Silver book, well that’s it I am hooked and that old adage comes into play, just one last chapter before bed. Only, in my case it was right until the end of the book and since I had only started it the other night, of course I finished it and now it’s already nearly midnight.I hear something from downstairs, Kitten’s head comes up and his ears prick up. What the hell is it? Surely not an intruder, this is a safe place we don’t have a high crime rate and why would anyone want to break into my restaurant? Cash I am guessing. My heart races and pounds in my chest, I place a hand over it to try to settle it down, but I am scared as anything, my mouth is dry. Kitten stirs and jumps off the bed.My first instinct is to grab him, if someone has broken in, they won’t care about a tiny black fluffball

Chapter 126

CodyWaking up with Imogen fast asleep snoring lightly in my arms is one of the best feelings in the world, aside from making love with her and watching her as she goes about her day. I love the way she is emphatic with her hands, the way she fusses over Kitten and how she is a natural woman with no airs and graces, no pretence and no hidden agenda.I look down at her beautiful, serene face as she blows little sleep bubbles, her hair scattered across my shoulders and Kitten with his head on her other shoulder. It’s so fucking adorable that I wish I could capture this moment forever and never let it go. Alas, this morning is the scan morning and we both have to face Luna. Maybe I should let her know that Imogen is coming with me to avoid any outbursts at the hospital. Why couldn’t things just be a whole lot simpler?Imogen stirs and as much as I’d like to wake her up some more with my morning wood, I don’t. She needs rest. We were up last night most of the night and it was already late

Chapter 127

ImogenAm I little bit jealous of how Luna looks, all radiant and pregnant with her the smallish bump and swell of her stomach not to mention that tucked safely inside her is a beating heart, that of Cody Brannigan’s child? I am swallowing my mild jealousy down, but it does sting, I want that to me carrying his child. He squeezes my hand as if he can read my mind. I suppose at least Luna relented from her initial frosty stance and has been civil. It’s almost as if she has had a three-hundred-and-sixty-degree turnaround from the woman that was screaming and shouting outside my restaurant not that long ago.I smile up at Cody. The lady ushers us into the room and Luna hops herself up on the bed. Cody offers to help her. “I’m good, honestly I am only pregnant.” She tells him but there is no malice or offence in her voice.“Okay.” He sits down on the plastic chair next to the bed then stands and goes off outside. I wonder where the hell he is going, and Luna looks at me and shrugs her sho

Chapter 128

CodyOur evening was heady, we stayed awake until around midnight and then fell asleep in each other’s arms. It feels surreal to know that the baby growing inside Luna will be born in a few short months. I don’t think I will ever be ready. Immi seems more ready than I do and she’s not even the parent. I admire her for being so gracious and taking not just me on but a baby too and going full throttle into a new place in Austin. The woman is superwoman I kid you not, all her energy and focus turn me on, she’s smart, funny, gorgeous and kind-hearted, there will never be another woman for me.“I like this one, what do you think?” She is standing next to a large Norway spruce tree in Dixon’s tree lot excited as a kid in a candy store who has been let loose. This is going to be our first Christmas together and whatever she wants she will have. Her face is radiant as she smiles, the air is cooler today and Immi has adorable red cheeks, and the tip of her nose is getting red. I kiss her butto

Chapter 129

ImogenChoosing trees with Cody was the best, it feels like Christmas now and Lukov and I are trying to set up the tree for the restaurant. By the time Cody and I had purchased the decorations and gone back for a bite to eat to his Lake House there wasn’t much time left and he had to leave with his driver for the airport. Of course, I feel sad in my heart but it’s only another week and he will be home for the holidays.Honestly, I cannot believe how fast this part of the year is going, it’s like wildfire.“I think you need to move it slightly to the right.” I tell Lukov.“Are you sure, it looks straight to me?” He frowns and places his hands on his slender hips. I take a step back and view the tree in the green, metal base that it sits in.“Okay, you might be right.”“Thank God for that, this tree malarky is driving me nuts and we’ve only just started.” He wipes his brow, moving around a large tree isn’t an easy feat but he has done well, and I appreciate all his help, I’d have had to

Chapter 130

CodyBeing slammed and punched in the head isn’t fun on the ice, this game is proving to be brutal and to be honest, I am ready to take out the defence guy who has just landed another punch to me. Atlas skates over, the ref skates over and Hawk is by my side trying to break it up.“C’mon man you don’t need this shit. Let it go. Think of Immi.” Atlas tells me.“Yeah, Bro, think of Immi. And you don’t want to be in the sinbin do you?” Hawk has an arm around mine which is in full punch mode.“Go fuck your mother.” I yell at the asshole who has cornered me, the puck was mine, it was mine for the taking and it would have been a good shot. Sometimes, it can pretty mean and nasty on the ice like today. The guys we’re playing are total fuckers.I huff and growl then allow Hawk to lower my arm. “Break it up or you are both off.” The referee finally says when he skates over and where was he the last few minutes. I swear I almost had my jaw broken. A night in a hospital would seriously have piss

Chapter 131

ImogenIt has been just over twenty-four hours since I bought the pregnancy tests, and still I haven’t done one. I am too scared, it would mean a massive change for both Cody and I, especially with his and Luna’s baby on the way. Lukov keeps asking if I am okay and I have told him, I think I’m just under way too much stress right now. He did ask if maybe I should reconsider opening up in Austin. To be honest, that will all go by the wayside if my test proves that I am pregnant. God, I feel sick not just the nausea but also the worrying about it. I think subconsciously I am waiting for Cody to be back home before I do the test. It’s not something I want to do by hiding it from him.In a couple of hours, he will be at the Lake House. The plan is that I will go and meet him there with Kitten. Lukov and I have decorated the restaurant tree and he has helped me decorate with the waiting staff the restaurant. It’s as pretty as a picture, honestly like stepping into a winter wonderland.“Hey,
