Avery’s pov

The next morning I woke up to the sunlight streaming from the glass wall, striking directly on the bed. Xade was still asleep, his arms wrapped around me, his hand on my stomach protectively. I smile, letting out a soft yawn to not wake him up.

He needed all the rest he could get. However I on the other hand suddenly had a burst of energy. I carefully slip out of bed, a bit reluctant when I saw him reaching out for me and groaning in distress in his sleep when he couldn’t grasp me.

However, I was starving and since I am pregnant I would not want to deprive my baby of the meal he was begging for….which was raw meat.

I got dressed in one of Xade’s large shirts that reached on my knees and rolled on one of his boxers to my waist, praying it won’t slip off. I didn’t think it would be good to wear the clothes I had yesterday, not when they were still damp.

I padded softly to the kitchen, my footfalls light so I wouldn’t wake up anyone. I found Xaden crashed out on the couch, lips part as he snored away, on his chest is a book titled name; What To Expect When You’re Expecting. An image of a pregnant woman is on the cover.

“Xade told him to get him a few books,” I almost leaped out of my skin when a soft shy voice utters behind me. I whipped around, surprised to see the same young girl from yesterday here.

She’s a petite girl, a few inches shorter than me, long dark red hair running down her back. She’s very pretty with a shy blush on her cheeks.

She had that kind of beauty that would leave one gobsmacked and wonder if she was real or not.

“Get him a few books?” My brows furrowed confused.
