I wrapped my arms around my beach ball-sized belly and tried to breathe through the contraction tightening through it. It was a week before my due date, and we'd finally managed to move many of our things into our new house in California and bought enough furniture to make it livable. Now all we needed was to set up the nursery. I'd thought we would have another week or longer—all my sons had been born late, but this morning I'd started having contractions. I was sure they were false ones, but it motivated me to get the crib set up immediately—just in case.

"Screwdriver.” I held my hand out toward Lucifer as I lifted the headboard of the crib.

“Darling, what exactly are you doing?” He managed to sound both curious and horrified at the same time.

I narrowed my eyes. “This nursery furniture isn’t going to put itself together.”

"There's an actual man in the room willing to do this for you.”

I rolled my eyes. “Okay, actual man. But I think you might need to remember I’m a god now and can do pretty much anything. Even while pregnant."

He took the crib piece off me and set it down before tugging me into his arms and dropping a tender kiss on my lips. “Oh, believe me, I never forget that.”

I pressed my palms against his chest. “No distractions. This crib needs to be built right away. We have no idea when this little lady is going to arrive. It could be today, for all we know.”

His eyes widened as he glanced down at my belly. “We’re not ready yet. Keep her in.”

“I'll ask, but I have a feeling she has a mind of her own already.” I handed him the screwdriver and sauntered over to the nursing chair. “Now screw like the wind.”

He grinned. "Usually when you say that we're both naked."

I chuckled softly and was relieved to be able to sit down for a while. I closed my eyes and rocked myself back and forth on the chair Zel had given me as I rode out another contraction. Shit, they were getting closer, weren't they?

“Where’d Zel get to?” I asked. She’d moved into the guest house as soon as we'd mentioned the new place. No waiting to be invited, no waiting for permission, she just packed a bag to come along with us, then set herself up as head of security for the estate, running it all from the guest house and overseeing a small battalion of guards. I loved Zel, but she could definitely be...intense sometimes. It had only gotten worse after we asked her to be the baby's godmother. Still, if I was going to have this baby today, I wanted her nearby.

“I don't know, but I should order her to help me with this crib. She's a lot more handy than I am.” Lucifer looked to the door like he might actually run down to the guesthouse and fetch her.

Despite Lucifer's complaints, he continued to get the crib set up, while I rested and gazed across the nursery.
