Chapter Nine

Still wiping her hands, Savannah walked out onto the back porch, surprised to see that the sun had risen.

Also surprising was the number of men who’d gathered, some sitting on the porch, some standing around the yard. They all straightened, rushing toward her as she came out.

Hayes reached her first.

“Well? We heard crying.”

Despite the fact that she was so tired she felt as though she could sleep for a week, Savannah grinned.

“It’s a healthy baby boy.”

Amid whoops and back slapping, Hayes and Wyatt led her to a seat and before she knew it, Duke came forward and placed a plate of hot food on her lap.

“Maggie all right?”

Savannah smiled her appreciation, for the food and for his concern for her friend.

“Maggie’s fine. Just tired. I’m sure she’s going to be hungry, too, in a bit. She worked hard.”

Duke nodded. “Already got a plate hot for her. Just waiting for the bosses to come down.”

Without thinking, Savannah leaned into the hand Wyatt threaded through her hair.

“One of them should be down soon. They’re fascinated with little Ace and can’t wait to show him off. Ah, there’s one of the proud papas now.”

Smiling as the others all gathered around Jeremiah and the newest addition to the ranch, Savannah picked up a biscuit and started to nibble on it, too tired to make the effort to eat anything else.

Washing it down with some of Duke’s strong coffee, she sat back, enjoying watching a group of such hard-nosed cowboys brought to their knees by the sight of a newborn baby.

The sun warmed the large porch, while the house protected it from most of the brisk wind, leaving her pleasantly warm and drowsy.

Absently listening to them, she closed her eyes and leaned back, a little surprised by the wistfulness she heard in their voices. Their whispered words of congratulations and concern for Maggie swirled around her and seemed to come from farther and farther away.

The hand in her hair began a slow and gentle massage that worked wonders on the headache that she hadn’t realized she had until now.

Jolting at the slide of hands under her, she snapped her eyes open to meet Hayes’s.

“W–What—”

He lifted her high against his chest, turned and sat down again, holding her on his lap, his big body blocking out the rest of the wind and making her even warmer.

“Sh. Come on and eat a little something, and then you can go to sleep.”
