Don't forget to check out my new start of a trilogy Bloodlust.

Dedicated to @mad5667 for being the first to guess correctly :p

I looked down at my baby and all I could feel was happiness. Shayne was at my side running a finger up and down our baby's cheek. It was the most perfect moment I had ever experienced.

There was a light knock in the door. Reluctantly, Shayne stood up and opened the door. With one nod both Bre and Jake came rushing in. Sam trailed behind the two. All three froze in front of as they started at the small baby in my arms.

"Please tell me it's a boy." Jake said.

"Please tell me it's a girl." Bre said hopeful.

I smiled at both of them. I looked at Sam who shrugged. I guess he didn't want to guess what the baby was.

"Everyone, meet Eleanor." I said, holding my baby girl up for them to see.

Jade squealed and rushed to my side. Jake groaned but still beamed at me. They all took turns holding my baby. The entire time Shayne was at my side looking tense.

You okay? I asked through our mind link.

My wolf is just being over protective. He doesn't want anyone hurting our baby.

I squeezed Shayne's hand reassuringly and smiled. I liked that Shayne was protective of our baby. I loved that little spark in his eyes every time he was looking at her. Every time Shayne looked at me I saw the love he had for me. No matter what has happened I can be assured that Shayne loves me just as much as I love him.

After thirty minutes of my baby girl being passed around Shayne finally kicked everyone out. I was exhausted and my body felt sore. I was starting to heal but it didn't stop it from being uncomfortable. I felt like I needed more than just a few hours of sleep. I needed to crash and sleep for the next few days.

But I couldn't close my eyes as I held my little angel in my arms. She was so small and sound asleep. Her little chubby cheeks were coated pink and her lower lip was pushed out making her look like she was pouting. I was sure she got that from Shayne. Goddess, she was just so amazing. This was my baby girl.

"You should sleep." Shayne said.

"I don't want to." I protested.

"You have to at least try." Shayne said. "Lisa said you were more than halfway dilated when you really started feeling the contractions."

"I think I had felt them since I woke up. I guess I didn't pay much attention to it."

"Well now I want you to rest and I'll take care of Elle."

I grinned at hearing Shayne give our baby a nick name already. I had all this excitement bubbling inside of me. I was at the happiest moment in my life. I had my baby in my arms, Shayne was at my side and for just a few moments we could forget about everything.

But I knew that soon things would change. I had a plan that I needed to start taking action in. Shayne was right when he said I needed to rest. I needed to regain my energy so that I could have to strength to do what needed to be done.

I already have my master plan in mind. I needed to talk to Caleb soon and find a way to get to Rider. I needed to be careful about this so Shayne wouldn't find out. If he found out what I was planning he would probably lock me up....again.

"Alright, but just for a little bit." I said.

I wrapped the new clean covers around me and snuggled in bed. Shayne was sitting on the side of the bed holding Elle in his arms. I smiled at them and let my eyes flutter close. I felt my body relax and give into exhaustion.
