**Mason’s POV**

As the hours pass I feel calmer. Soft music plays in the room and Josie is so relaxed. Even through her pain, she smiles and there’s excitement in the room. This beautiful, amazing and strong woman is bringing our daughter into the world and as I rub her back I am filled with pride that she is mine.

Then with a groan and a sudden call for help, the room shifts into chaos. Dot and Art had been waiting outside in the hall to let us have this moment alone but

w they are bursting in with urgency.

“Get her on the bed,” Dot says.

I pick Josie up without much thought and place her on the bed, stepping back to let Dot and Art get to her. Dot is pressing something to Josie’s stomach before saying something about the heart rate. I can barely make sense of what is happening as my ears begin to ring. Josie is fighting for breath and I stand there, utterly frozen in fear, because I knew something was going to go wrong and this is my fault. I did this to her. Cash had told me I’d kill my bond, and he was right, this is it. This is how I kill her.

I can’t watch this happen. My legs move without any thought as I turn and walk towards the door.

‘Mason Marshall! Get your ass back over here right now and support your bond. She needs you! This is not the time to run away!” Dot shouts.

I stop and turn back to face the scene. Dot is right. I can’t walk away now. I have to fight for her, for them. I can’t leave when they need me the most, it doesn’t matter how scared I am, everything I do should be for them, not me.

Deacon is talking to Josie and her breathing slows as she relaxes. She is okay. Of course she is, she is a damn warrior.

from her tiny little mouth it hits me like a lightning bolt to my chest. It’s a surreal blend of raw emotion and disbelief. This is my daughter. I created this tiny being with Josie. She is ours to care for, forever. My heart swells with awe and a love so overwhelming it steals my breath. Nothing else matters more in the world than this gift we have just been given. I wipe the tears from my eyes and Harper’s tiny hands come into focus. She is so fragile, yet so fierce as she cries angrily. She blinks open her big blue eyes and I feel
