CHAPTER 14

Entering the kitchen through the front door, I actually almost crashed right into Hayden, because he was on his way out. Stopping short just an inch or so from his hard chest, I murmured an apology.

“I didn’t mean to almost run into you.”

Standing so close to him, I caught a whiff of his woodsy scent, which smelled so heavenly that I probably would have been content to breathe it in for hours.

However, almost immediately, Hayden took a step back from me, telling me not to worry about almost running into him. “It was my fault, too.”

For a long, somewhat awkward moment, we just looked at each other. Slightly wounded, I wondered why Hayden had felt the need to take a step back from me so immediately, like I was poison that he didn’t want to get too near or something.

Breaking eye contact with me and raking a hand through his hair, he spoke again first. “Anyway…I’m heading out on a hunting trip up north. Mark and a few other men are coming, too. There are wild animals around here that we can feed on, of course, but we find large game, like the kind that can be found in the wild forestlands far up north, to be more satisfying. It kind of keeps us ‘fuller’ longer.”

“Oh. So, how long will you be gone for?”

Hayden finally returned his gaze to my face. “Oh, probably just a few days. In the meantime, Sam, Trevor, and many other very strong vampires who aren’t going on the trip will keep you safe. So, don’t worry about that.”

“All right. But….” I hesitated, thinking about what I was going to say next and feeling stupid for some reason. “Carla is having a ‘community welcome party’ for me Friday evening, and I guess I was just hoping that you’d be there.”

“Oh.” Once again, Hayden shifted his gaze from my face. “Well…I’m sure there will be other parties.”

This was not what I’d been hoping to hear, and now I took a step back, putting another foot of distance between us.

“I think we need to talk, Hayden. I need some answers about everything that’s happened to me, and why it’s happened, and I need to know what your thoughts are about some things. I need to know if I should start preparing myself to raise the baby I’m carrying alone.”

Turning from me, Hayden heaved a sigh, jamming his hands in his jeans pockets. “Look. Maybe when I get back—”

“I vomited my guts out this morning because I was so ill with morning sickness. Jen ran into the bathroom with me and held my hair back while I leaned over the toilet. Where were you? Definitely not providing support while I was sick, which seems like something that the father of the baby I’m carrying should do. And you are the father, aren’t you? If you have some kind of doubt, like if you don’t truly believe that I got pregnant by magic or something, just tell me right now.
