Rose bit her lip, and he looked up at her, smiling. Then he dropped to his knees again.

Kissing her stomach softly, reverently. Laughing when another kick came.

“Hello little one. I am your father. I swear I will be the best father I can be. You already have such a wonderful mother; I can only hope to be like her.”

Rose leaned forward and kissed him. “I love you Cabe. So much.”

A knock sounded on the door and Cabe stood, using his crutch to walk to the door. He cracked it open and hid his nude body from sight.

He murmured to the person behind the door and when he shut it, he walked back to her side.

“Come out of that bed. It is inspiring me to do much to you. And we have a busy day.”

Rose laughed and he helped her from the bed.

“Look at that. You are so beautiful my love. With your new curves and my child growing within you.”

Rose smiled and he pulled her in close, his large hand covering her stomach.

They stood that way until another knock sounded and Cabe found his large shirt to put over her naked body.

When the tub was ready, Cabe climbed inside and helped her in after.

She lay back against his chest and sighed. Completely content to be in his arms.

Cabe washed her softly, kissing her skin as he did so, and she did the same.

Lingering over his bruise that would have taken him from her and showing her love for him.

They got out of the bath much later and Cabe helped her dress in a dress that did not quite fit her.

But she did not care. When they got back to her house, she would change.

But this dress showed off her newly formed stomach and she loved it.

Cabe kissed her softly, having gotten dressed himself and he pulled her from the room.

Rose had left her hair down, and she loved the feeling of it free.

A man was walking in the hallway when they entered it and he turned with a grin.

He looked like Cabe, and she recognized him from the small portrait Cabe had in his bedchamber.

He was a little shorter than Cabe, and his hair was shorter than Cabe’s and was a few shades lighter.

His eyes were the same color though and Rose smiled back at him.

Cabe tucked her into his side, “Case, this is Rose. My Rose.”

Case took her hand gently and kissed it. “I have heard a lot about you Rose. Welcome to the family.”

Rose smiled, “Thank you Case.”

Case nodded, “Where are you off to?”

Cabe looked at his brother, “We are going to speak with Rose’s family. Would you care to join us?”

Case looked surprised, “Are you certain?”
