I feel someone shaking me awake and I whimpered and threw my hands out.

"I-I haven't done anything wrong, I swear! Please don't do anything to me!"

"Kennedy, it's me. You're safe princess...it's okay."

I open my eyes and see Grayson. The memories of what went down a couple hours ago came back and I smiled at him. It was all over, Grayson had saved me. My smile grew bigger when I realized where we were, we were at his pack. I tried to get out but as soon as my feet touched the ground they gave out and Grayson luckily caught me before I hit the ground. He chuckled before picking me up bridal style and carrying me all the way to the house. Once inside he went up to his office and we managed to be unseen. He sat me on his desk and he sat in his chair in front of me. We just stare into each other's eyes until his start wondering over my face, then down to my neck, down my arms, and my legs. He clenched his fists and abruptly gets up, startling me. He paces around the room until he can't contain his anger anymore and punches the wall. He starts throwing things and I try to get up and walk over to him. As I stood up my legs jiggled a little but I managed to take small steps and slowly make my way over to him. When I reached him he was cursing and throwing things around. I reached my hands out and caressed his face. He looked down at me and he looked at me with sadness.

"I'm sorry. If I would've called or...I don't know...checked up on you I would've known beforehand and could've saved you sooner. I'm sorry you had to go through all that...but we'll get through this together. You helped me and now it's my turn to return the favor and help you out."

"Don't be sorry Grayson. None of this was your fault. No one knew this was going to happen. At least I'm okay now. Grayson you saved me and if it weren't for you I probably would've still been stuck with him...probably torturing me. So if anything you shouldn't be sorry. Thank you."

   We looked into each other's eyes again and slowly are faces were inching closer to each other. We were less than five inches away when the door flew open and we jumped apart. I looked down and was facing away from the door so I couldn't see who it was. Grayson had an irritated look on his face and looked at the person that had entered. I turned around to see who had come in and froze when I saw Mason standing there. What the fuck was he doing here?

"Kennedy, you're back! I came here looking for you and when I didn't find you I was scared. I know what I did was wrong and I'm sorry. I-"

"Now you're sorry?! You've waited all this time to finally check up on me and see how I was doing! What you did was understandable, after all it was you're mate but that doesn't justify how much of an asshole you were. I forgive you...but it's going to be difficult to build up a friendship with you. Does she know about what happened between us?"

"No...I just don't have the balls to. She saved herself for me and I feel shitty because well...I didn't. She thinks she was my first but I don't want to keep her in the dark forever. I'm just afraid she'll leave me...I don't know what I'd do without her."

"Well, you should tell her soon because the more you wait to tell her the bigger the problem is going to be. She's going to feel a shit ton of emotions running through her. She's going to feel betrayed, and most of all hurt but you have to be there for her and show her how much she means to you."

"Thank you Kennedy. You're an amazing person and I hope we can work things out."

    I nodded and he smiled at me before turning and closing the door behind him as he exited Grayson's office. Grayson wrapped his arms around me from behind and I leaned my head against his chest. He turned me around so I could face him and he entwined our hands together.

"Kennedy, I was an idiot for hurting you. I was drunk and I thought she was you. So when I woke up the next morning I wrapped my arms around her and when she turned around I pushed her away and told her to get out of the bedroom. When you left I missed you like hell but I needed to pay for what I did to you so I decided not to go after you. When you mated with Mason it was the worst pain I've ever felt."

   I opened my mouth to say something but went against it when he looked down at me with such pain and sadness.

"Let me finish. When Mason came and didn't know of your whereabouts I was so worried. I thought something had happened to you. When I found out he had mated with his mate that worry increased and I feared for your life and the baby's. It's a real miracle that both of you are alive but you survived because you are fighters. I want to be with you again Kennedy."

   I slowly nod my head and say,

"Okay...but I want us to take things slow this time."

"Deal."

   He smiles down at me and hugs me. I wrap my arms around his neck and bring him down for a kiss.

"How about we call the doctor over so he can check you out."

   Just then a pack doctor comes in with Mason behind.

"Sorry, I called the pack doctor since Kennedy doesn't look too good."

"Thanks Mason."

He nods and walks away. The pack doctor takes my hand in hers and leads me towards Grayson's bedroom. She sits me down on the bed and starts inspecting me. She cleans up my arms and feet from when I injured myself with the glass. She wraps them up with gauze and says,

"Well, it seems like nothing is broken. Just try to rest up and don't stress yourself. Your injuries won't heal quick because you're still too weak. I'll bring in the baby scanner so we can check on the baby. Excuse me."

  She heads out the door and I look excitedly at Grayson.

"Wait, so we're going to see the baby?"

"Yeah and I think we'll be able to find out the gender."

    My head snaps over to the door as the doctor come in I eye the machine she has with her. She instructs me to lay down and pull my shirt up above my stomach and I do as told. She slides some gel on and I shiver at the slight coldness. She puts some little thing on my stomach and a little image pops up on the screen. She moves the little thing around my stomach until she settles on one place. She points at the screen and says,

"You see this? This is the head and this...is the body."

She says as she slides her finger across the screen. I look at Grayson with tears in my eyes and he smiles down at me. A thumping sound brings my attention away from Grayson and back to the doctor.

"What is that?"

"That is the baby's heartbeat."

I don't realize I'm crying until Grayson wipes a tear from my cheek. He runs his hand through my hair and I smile up at him. The doctor looks at us adoringly and says,

"I'll print out these pictures and come back with them."

I nod my head and she heads out the door. The sound of the baby's thumping heartbeat remains and I smile down at my stomach.

"You hear that, that's your heartbeat. We're finally safe and can be in peace. Just two more months until you come and then my life will be complete. All I care is that you come out healthy and well."

"I want that too. Kennedy even though this baby isn't mine I'd like to raise him or her as my own. What do you say?"

"I'd like that. We can choose the baby's name together and decorate the room."

   The nurse comes back into the room with a happy smile on her face. She hands me the pictures and I stare at them in awe.

"Congratulations you are having a boy."
