ImogenCody is pacing, he’ll wear a hole in his wooden floorboards if he’s not careful as he talks on the phone to his coach and rakes his hand through his hair. We left the hospital and went and grabbed some pizzas to go then headed over to the restaurant and picked up Kitten, an overnight bag for me and some bits and pieces that I’d need to stay at the Lake House for some days.It's late now and Cody and I are both exhausted, it’s been a long, long day and night. His coach is on the phone since Cody knew he’d be up still, apparently the man survives on just four to five hours sleep a night. How? I have no idea but that definitely isn’t for me.“There’s nothing I can do about it, Coach. I need to be here for Luna for a couple of days and get her settled in.” I hear him say as he rakes his hands through his hair. Again.I make him a glass of water and consider putting some milk on to warm which could help soothe him. “No, I am not getting on the next flight out. I already told you; sh

ImogenThe two days passed in a blur, honestly with sorting out packing, running between the restaurant, my apartment and getting the guest room ready and shopping for Luna to stay, I have been rushed off my feet.Cody left yesterday afternoon with a heavy heart, he told me he hated to leave me like this having to manage everything, but I told him it will be fine and tried to reassure him the best I can. Thankfully, his assistant has stepped in. She is organizing for someone to go to Lunas, having picked up the key from her in hospital to bring over her clothes, some books, not that she needs many, I have plenty and general personal items, you know chargers, cosmetics, underwear that sort of stuff.“You need a break, Immi.” Lukov tells me looking all refreshed from his day off.“I know, but there isn’t time. Honestly, I feel totally wiped out and I still haven’t had my period.”“Shit, that’s a while. Considered doing another test yet or how about you actually get one done at the surger

Cody“How are things, Bro?” Atlas asks me as we lace up our skates, another city another game, I never thought I’d feel tired of it all. I mean, I have lived and breathed ice hockey since I was a kid. But you know, now I just feel the sheer weight and enormity of life and I think it’s fucking with my head and then some.“Luna is moving into the Lake House until Immi comes to Austin.” I finish tying the laces, Atlas shoots me a look, there’s a slight glimmer of annoyance. Yeah, he knows all of Luna’s antics, hell he’s had to live them pretty much as I have since he is my best friend and Immi’s older brother.“Is that wise, what the hell?”“She bled a lot, and they need her on as much rest as possible. The only solution I could think of so someone could keep an eye on her, was for her to move to the Lake House and ask Immi to keep an eye on her.” Some of the guys jostle around us, they’re waiting for my pre-game speech, tonight we play Montana, not going to be an easy game that’s for su

Chapter 145

ImogenLuna looks so frail sitting in the wheelchair, I can only understand her exasperation as the nurse smiles at me. It’s a different one today, much older with that kind of grey hair that the younger girls my age are all dying their hair to look like. She wears a coral lipstick and natural eyes; I am guessing in her hey day she was a stunner. Her name badge says Anne. She greets me.“You’re the young lady coming to look after our patient?”“Yes, that’s me. Imogen.”“Lovely to meet you, Imogen. You need to make sure this little one gets plenty of rest and I mean feet up kind of rest. The chair I understand Mr Brannigan bless his soul has purchased, so if you like you can always go out on nice walks together but using the chair. We don’t want anything to happen with the baby.”“Absolutely, I’ll make sure Luna rests plenty and of course, I’ll ensure she doesn’t overexert.”“Good and do you have a chair seat in the shower for you? It’s best we keep her as rested as we can.” Okay we don

Chapter 145

LunaI can’t believe I am in Cody Brannigan’s house, it’s gigantic and it is stunning. I never imagined that he would have something like this, never in my wildest dreams. And whereas he has been giving me money on a regular basis, I’d still never be able to afford anything like this.So, we’ve not officially met right but I am the biggest thing in Cody’s life right now well sort of the biggest, I am carrying the most important thing in his life, his little girl and I am loving every second of being pregnant only of course not the recent scare, that had me frightened not just for losing something so precious inside me that I already love with all my heart, but I’d be losing something of Cody Brannigan too.I didn’t just happen to be his puck bunny; I have known Cody since forever only he never knew me. I was the kid that hung with the wrong crowd at school not that I got into trouble much, even I wasn’t that dumb, but I always had my eye on the guy who was a couple of years older than

Chapter 146

CodyImmi has messaged to let me know that everything is going fine so far. Luna has settled in and they have had dinner together and about to head out for a walk, with Luna in the chair since it’s still very early days since she had the bleed. Then they plan to watch some corny Hallmark movie, okay I know I kinda like them. It’s all smooch and gush and well they make you feel good. So what if the boys would laugh at me about it.Calli has called me to say he’s back in Minnesota after an away game and was flying out to see Autumn in New York then back for the Valentine’s dinner at Immi’s restaurant. He asked if I wanted to meet up. I’ve told him for sure, we can all go to the local bar, Calli, Nolan, Atlas and I and chill out the Bros back together, whilst the girls have some girl time.“On the ice, Brannigan.” Coach is gunning for everyone today; he’s got a sore head likely because we didn’t win the last game. I’ve got my head more in the game this time knowing the baby for now is saf

Imogen“You need to slow down; you’ll give yourself a heart attack.” Lukov is watching me closely as I run around making sure the tables are dressed for tonight. Each one will have a red candle on it in a storm jar, there are white covers on each one with smaller red ones draped over the top. We’ve got red balloons, white balloons and pink balloons in clusters dotted around the restaurant. Mom has already delivered the cakes she was here at seven thirty this morning. I got up at five and went for my run after I’d fed Kitten and checked in on Luna, who was still in the land of dreams and fairies. I have to admit she looked so angelic sleeping, with her long lashes framing her face and yeah, it clutched at my heart just seeing her so peaceful and beautiful, knowing the baby girl is safely tucked away inside her. But still, yes, still – I worry that Cody may find something in her again and break off our engagement.In fact, I had a dream that woke me up in a bad sweat, in it Cody had come

CodyI hear the door close and look up and see my beautiful girl’s face as she comes in. I squeeze Luna’s hand. “Hey darlin’.” I get up to go and put my arms around her and kiss her, God, I’ve missed her so much. I hate this being apart but only a few more days and Immi will be full time at the ranch with me. I cannot wait, like, literally cannot wait. It’s a dream come true is what it is.“Everything alright here?” Her voice is slightly hostile, I furrow my brow.“Yes of course, you seem uptight. Are you okay?” I go to put my arms around her but she moves me away with her hands, drops her bag onto the floor and slips off her shoes and heads straight for the kitchen area.“A word, Cody. In private please,” oh-ho that doesn’t sound good, does it? I follow her cute ass into the kitchen where she leans against the sink with her arms now folded in front of her, a true defensive stance.“What’s up, darlin’?”“You, holding Luna’s hand is what’s up, Cody. What the hell is going on. It’s bad

Chapter 149

ImogenThe Valentine’s evening went without any hitches, and it was like a dream. The entire restaurant was lit with candles and soft lighting, and I have to say that Lukov’s new menu specifically designed for the evening went down a roaring success, it was divine and Cody was blown away. We had a photographer in and a journalist from the local press and I’m just perusing the online news this morning and looking at the beautiful images. Of course, there were many of Cody and many of Cody and I. He is our hometown celebrity after all. They even took some beautiful shots of Atlas and Fallon.We’re currently at their house right now as Fallon is in a flap about some wedding plan details. They have moved everything to June and since we’re in February she only has sixteen weeks left to plan. “So, what’s the big rush?” I ask her as she scrolls through her contact list to get hold of the bridal shop.“It’s a secret.” Her eyes don’t move up from the screen. A secret now I wonder what on earth

Chapter 150

CodyWow all of a sudden everything is happening, and boy am I over the moon about it. All the long-distance relationship and constant travel to and from Minnesota will be over now. Well, except of course for visiting my folks but they understand it will be less frequent now that Imogen has moved in with me. It’s the morning of her arrival, I had to fly back without her because my coach demanded I be over the break and hit the ice for practice at seven a.m sharp, followed by a ninety-minute gym session and an hour in the pool. He’s driving us so hard but then I understand he wants the best from us, he wants us at our physical and mental peak.Immi is flying in with Luna, I know she still doesn’t fully trust Luna but honestly, I think Luna has turned a new leaf. The way she genuinely broke down on the sofa when I was at the Lake house makes me feel they were not crocodile tears. My assistant has had someone come in and place fresh cut flowers around in the kitchen, dining room, lounge a
