I’m going to be a mom. Me! A mother!

Tears catch in my throat. “And you’re going to be amazing dads.”

Zane stands and exclaims, “There is so much to do. So much to prepare.” Then he bounces a little on his feet laughing.

Which makes all of us laugh too.

Pregnant! I’m going to have a baby!And the thing is, as much as I’ve been through lately, I’m more than ready for this next adventure.

“I guess we’ll have to move up our proposal plans, guys,” Evander says, grinning.

“Proposal plans?” I ask, lifting a brow. “And when should I expect that to happen?”

Evander kisses my neck. “It’s a surprise.”

I’m practically glowing. There’s a little baby dragon inside of me. I’m going to be marrying four amazing men, and life is absolutely amazing.

How did I get this lucky?

Zane looks at the other men with those big blue eyes of his. “I know we have a whole plan, but what better moment could we have than this?”

It’s like a ripple moves through them, a silent exchange. One after another they fall to their knees, and Evander pulls a ring box out of his pocket.

“Samantha Callaway…” Evander begins, visibly swallowing as my heart races.

“Marry us!” Zane shouts.

Before I can even think, I say, “Yes!”

Evander blinks slowly. “But we had a whole speech planned, and–”

“No one says you can’t still do it,” I tease, laughing and waiting.

Evander gives a sharp nod, looking nervous. “Since the moment you came into our lives, you’ve changed us for the better.”

He glances at Aydan, and Aydan continues. “Every moment, every day, is better because we have you.”

Granger’s eyes are filled with tears. “We could never imagine being without you. We want to be with you forever. Not just for this lifetime, but for all your lifetimes.”

Zane smiles. “So, will you marry us? Will you be with us forever?”

I laugh and answer again. “Yes!”

Evander opens the box, where my perfect wedding ring sits beside their four rings. He picks it up and slides it onto my finger.

“And Evander says we can wear our rings too now, even though it doesn’t normally work this way,” Zane tells me excitedly.

Smiling, I kneel down in front of him and put his giant, gaudy ring on. It’s covered in light blue stones. Then, one after another, I put their rings on before finally standing back up.

“It’s official,” Aydan says. “We have a wedding to plan.”

Suddenly, the betas all around us stop moving. They look at the sky, and then one after another begins to shift and take flight. Granger hurries up to one of them, and says, “What’s going on?”

My insides twist.It can’t be Malikay and his group. They’ve been dumped on an island in the middle of nowhere, with no ability to fly and no way to escape. So, what’s wrong?

The beta, still looking at the sky, says simply, “Another female dragon.”

Granger barely has time to leap back before he shifts and takes off. I look at my men. They stare back in confusion.Another female?
