The Broken Warrior’s Daughter by Cooper

Chapter 0588

One night, as we lay in bed, Lily moves around as usual trying to find a comfortable position. She keeps rubbing her stomach and pulling my hand over her to calm Cara, since our little girl is especially responsive to me and Donovan.

My mate has gotten up off the bed and is moving to the closet. She looks at me like I’m crazy, her brows furrowing. “Yeah, are you?”

“Yeah. Yeah, yeah. I’m calm. I’m really calm.” I feel like my head is bobbing up and down like one of those things humans put on the dashboard of their car. My brain has completely emptied of everything.
