"I like option B," I groan.

He takes a step toward me, intent clear in his gaze.

I quickly jump backward, knowing full well that he'll carry me out of here in a heartbeat, this scene and the shooting schedule be damned. When it comes to me, I'm quickly coming to learn that Kaiden doesn't care what anyone else has to say or what they think. All that matters to him is me.

"You want a girl?" I ask.

"Hell no. I want boys. One of you is enough to worry about, princess."

"You said your girls."

"You want a baby girl," he says in a rumbling growl, satisfaction glinting deep in his eyes. "And I don't ever tell you no, Laura."

My heart flutters, and love for this man threatening to burst out of me. I don't know what I did to deserve him, but I need to keep doing it. He's the sweetest Grinch I've ever met. I was wrong the day I met him. I thought he was difficult, but he isn't. He was guarded, hiding behind the walls he erected to keep people out. But he's not hiding anymore. He's finally living again.

"I love you," I whisper."

His lips lift into a smile, his expression soft. "Go finish your scene."

"Yes, sir." I salute and then pass him my water bottle before turning to head back toward where we're filming.

He hooks a hand into the back of my coat at the last second, pulling me back to him.

"Wha–?"

His lips come down on mine, his kiss hot and insistent. He wipes every thought from my mind, sends my body up in flames, and then releases me. "Just in case you think I've forgotten about that fucking sex scene," he growls and then walks off, leaving me gaping after him.

"Laura!" Luca calls.

I whip around to find everyone on set staring in my direction. I'm pretty sure they just saw that. I'm pretty sure Kaiden intended for them to see it. Oh, my goodness. He's a crazy man. But he's my crazy man.

I giggle to myself and hurry forward to take my place.

"Hey, Max?" I peek my head into the cramped break room, searching for Max Sawyer, our set medic, pulling my robe tight around me. I feel ridiculous running around in my costume, but our sex scene starts filming in a few minutes, and I don't know if I'll get a chance to talk to her again before we wrap.

She lifts her gaze from the array of medical equipment spread across the tabletop, her blue eyes running over me. "If you're here to proposition me, the answer is no," she says in her firm British accent, brushing her dark hair off her shoulder. "I've already chased the set double out of here."

I blink at her, not sure if she's serious or not. Max is a tough cookie to crack, a little grumpy, but she knows her stuff. "Um, I came to ask a question."

"Does it involve dates?"

"No?"

"Oh." Relief steals across her face, softening her expression. "You can come in then."

I hesitate for a moment, rabidly curious about what the set double, Andrew Briggs, did to stress her out, but quickly decide the less I know, the better. Other people's business is not mine for a reason. I slip into the break room, closing the door behind me. And then I hesitate again.

"Is anything I say to you confidential?" Max isn't one to gossip, but the question slips out anyway.

"It can be." She cocks her head to the side, her gaze growing concerned. "What's up, Laura?"

"I'm pregnant," I blurt, feeling a little like I'm revealing a state secret. Kaiden and I haven't discussed when we would tell people yet. We didn't have time. We barely had time to process the news ourselves before we had to rush to set to make my call time.

"Well, now you've got me gobsmacked. I did not see that coming," Max says, her accent deepening.

"Me either." I place my hand over my belly, awed all over again. Will it be this way the whole time? Probably, I quickly decide.

Max watches me intently. "Judging by the look on your face, you aren't here to talk about your options, are you?"

I quickly shake my head. There are no options as far as I'm concerned. Kaiden and I are having this baby. We're going to love him or her with our whole hearts. I never even considered anything else, and I wouldn't. I would have kept the baby even if he hadn't been happy. I would have raised our child on my own. He or she is a part of Kaiden. How could I ever give up or regret something that's part of him?

"What can I help you with then?" Max asks.

"I'm up for a role in an action movie," I explain quietly. "It starts filming in February. I'm just wondering if it's safe for the baby for me to take a role like that."
