Challenge for the Alpha (on hold)

Chapter 7

Skylar's POV

I lay in bed, staring at Dominic's-our- bedroom walls, lost in thought. Did I really want a baby? One day, yeah. But right now? Not exactly. What does Dominic want? Does he even want to be a dad?

He lay in bed beside me, silently watching the tv. I watched him until I couldn't take the stillness anymore.

"Are you disappointed?"

I watched his sleepy eyes swirl with confusion.

"That you're not pregnant?"

I nodded hesitantly.

He gathered me in his arms until I rested with my head on his chest. He kissed my head before replying.

"I think I would've been happy if you were, but I'm happy that you're not, too. I get to keep you to myself for a while longer." He squeezed me closer as I let out a breath I hadn't known I'd been holding.

"Me too." I sighed.

I sat with my chin resting on my hands on his chest, watching him watch me.

His eyes seemed to glow with happiness and his lips twitched into his crooked-almost smile. His strong jawline speckled with his five o'clock shadow oozed manliness, if his enticing woodsy scent didn't tell you that already. His dark hair was slightly ruffled, calling me to run my fingers through it, and in that moment, I realized I desperately wanted to. Everyday, for the rest of my life. I wanted to wake up everyday with his arms around me, his striking eyes being the first thing I see, and his intoxicating scent that I would find comfort in when he wasn't near. I no longer had any desire to leave his side, in fact, I wanted to remain there for the rest of my life. I wanted to cuddle into him whenever I felt like it, and stake my claim in front of other girls. Basically, I wanted him. Forever.

"I'm in love with you." I whisper to him, for only his ears to catch, for my heart was his to keep.
