Part of me knew that the conversation would bring us back here, inside Ethanâs office. I barely remember the awkward goodbyes we said to John and Sarah as Dean led me out of the house and into his car. I did notice the heavy silence while Dean drove us to his firmâs HQ, though. I know he texted both Ethan and Logan and told them to be here. He didnât say a single word as his hands gripped the wheel until his knuckles turned white.
Even now, he can barely look me in the eyes.
They know. They asked me to tell them instead of having Dean recount what he overheard from my conversation with Sarah. All I could manage was, âYeah, Iâm pregnant.â Theyâre still trying to formulate a response, though I understand why theyâre having trouble finding the right words. Iâm so nervous, my skin itches. My heart is beating a thousand miles a minute as I try to imagine a new future ahead. Ethan, Logan, and Dean know that Iâm pregnant, and itâs not something I was really prepared for. Iâve been trying to find the right moment, but theyâve been overworked while Iâve barely managed to pull my bakery back together for the upcoming holidays.
We had an agreement which we have repeatedly breachedâbut catching feelings for one another doesnât even compare to bringing a new being into the world. Iâm going to be a mother. Itâs a decision Iâve already made, and I am terrified by the silence with which the three men Iâve fallen for have chosen to respond with. The more I think about it, in fact, the angrier I get. Whether they have a reaction or not doesnât even matter. Iâm moving ahead, with or without them. So why am I allowing myself to be treated like this?
âIs anybody going to say anything or are we going to just stare at one another all damn night?â I mumble, arms crossed as I sit on the sofa facing the western window.
Logan and Dean have the guest chairs, while Ethan is settled behind his desk. All eyes are on meâdark gazes loaded with confusion and muted fury. Lips pressed tightly into thin lines and muscles ticking nervously in their jaws. Hard breathing and stolen glances. Yet not a word.
âSeriously?â I croak. âYouâre acting like I killed your dog or something.â
âHow long have you known?â Ethan finally speaks.
Tension drips from his voice, sending shivers down my spine. Why do I feel like Iâm in the wrong here? I didnât do it on purpose. My defense systems are starting to kick in. My hyper-independent side is rearing her head, and she does not like what sheâs seeing from the men who insisted they wanted more, who claimed they could be more for me just as I am for them.
âA couple of weeks. I was still trying to figure out a way to tell you,â I say. I only hope they donât notice the tremor in my tone.
âThis wasnât part of the deal,â Ethan says.
