Chapter Six

It wasn’t even close to dawn as Stanton soaked in the huge tub, every part of his body aching. They’d been going at it over twenty-four hours, and Stanton didn’t have the energy to even lift his arms.

Nomad had sprinkled Epsom salt in his water to help Stanton’s achy muscles, but the guy hadn’t spoken more than a handful of words. Except during sex. Who knew Nomad had such a naughty mouth?

Even so, sex was the last thing on Stanton’s mind. He still couldn’t believe he’d practically begged Nomad to bite him. Had he lost his ever-loving mind? But seeing Nomad on that floor, in so much pain, fighting against attacking Stanton had broken his heart.

He snorted. His soft spot had just gotten him knocked up. And there was no doubt in his mind that he was pregnant because the horniness was gone and he felt a bit queasy.

Now what the hell was he going to do? Nomad had dangerous men after him, and if they found out that Stanton was carrying the guy’s child? Fuck. Stanton would end up on a table next to Nomad.

Stanton should’ve gone to the O’Brien family home when he’d had the chance. Now it was too late, and his life had changed forever. Stanton was terrified of being pregnant, but worse, being pregnant and on the run.

This little haven wouldn’t last for long. Even Stanton knew that staying mobile meant life and staying put meant getting caught. He could go to his parents’ house. It wasn’t as if they were ever there. But sooner or later they would figure out his “situation” and all hell would break loose.

His mom and dad would finally be rid of him for good by handing him over to the government. He didn’t doubt they would do that, since they never wanted him around in the first place.

Nomad appeared in the doorway, his cell phone in his hand. “I just got a call from Keller. Horace had his baby.”

Stanton struggled to sit up in the tub. His arms shook as he grabbed the sides and heaved himself into a sitting position. “What did he have?”

“A baby girl. They named her Shyla.” Nomad entered the room and showed Stanton the pictures on his phone that Keller had sent. Stanton’s heart swelled at how beautiful she was. “Horace said he understood why you couldn’t be there but wanted you to see her, anyway.”

Tears sprang to Stanton’s eyes. That was two births he had missed. He pressed a hand to his own stomach and thought of his and Nomad’s child growing inside of him.

Nomad pressed a kiss to Stanton’s forehead. “We’ll get through this. I promise I won’t let anything happen to you.”

As badly as Stanton wanted to believe that, until the dust settled and those horrible scientists and doctors were disbanded, they would never be safe.

“Is there anything you need?” Nomad set his phone on the bench beside him. The bathroom was real swanky. The tub Stanton sat in had jets, and there were steps that led to it.
