And I wanted to run the heck out of here.

I also wanted Stefan to escape while he still could.

“How about we discuss this in the morning. I’m tired,” I suggested to Carlo.

He pushed up on his elbow, and his eyes shot to mine. I felt myself shrink from his glare. “How about you two explain what the fuck just happened here? Are you still on birth control?” I didn’t know how to explain it, but Carlo Sovrano’s gaze was a physical entity, all on its own. I could feel him gather me up with it and hold me firmly in my place.

I swallowed over my dry throat. “Yes, of course, I am,” I said meekly. I wished I could sink into the bed and disappear.

“Then what the fuck were you two just talking about?” he asked once again.

Stefan shifted out of bed and pulled on his black boxer briefs. “I asked Giselle to have a baby with me. And she said yes.” Stefan stood at the end of the bed. His hands on his hips and his eyes on Carlo.

“Is that what you said?” Carlo looked down at me. I bit my bottom lip and nodded.

And then Carlo’s control snapped. His eyes widened and his handsome face turned wicked. “Are you fucking kidding me?”

Yeah.

I needed to disappear.

“Don’t fucking yell at her,” Stefan shouted at his brother. It was at that point I knew all was lost.

There would be no discussion in the morning.

This was going to happen right now.

And it was going to happen needlessly.

Because I wasn’t going to have a baby with Stefan.

No.

Soon, I’d be a billion miles away.

And I’d never see either of these two men ever again.

Carlo jumped out of bed and threw on a pair of shorts from the floor. He strode up to face off with his brother. “I can yell at whoever I want to fucking yell at. And right now, I’m going to yell at you,” Carlo spat out in Stefan’s face.

Stefan leaned in. “This has nothing to do with you, Brother. Step down. This is between me and Giselle.”

Carlo’s head fell back, and he let out a sarcastic laugh. And honestly, it scared the crap right out of me. He looked right at Stefan. “This has everything to do with me, asshole.”

Stefan wasn’t backing down. Not at all. “It doesn’t, Carlo. Giselle and I are going to have a baby.” Stefan jabbed his finger out. “And you need to accept that fact.”

With all the screaming, I hadn’t heard the bedroom door open. So it came as a surprise to see Nick and Eve at the door. Eve gasped and looked at me. “Oh, my gosh. You’re pregnant?” Even though there were two men currently ready to rip each other’s heads off—Eve was smiling like a fool. Her hands covered her mouth, and she hurried up to the bed.

Nick frowned at me, but he continued over to the pair of screaming brothers.

“No.” I shook my head and pulled the sheet over my body. I wasn’t sure why. It wasn’t like she and Nick hadn’t seen every inch of my skin. Several times. “No, I’m not. The subject just sort of—came up today.”

Eve’s eyes widened, and it was more than obvious that she liked the idea of me having a baby with Stefan.

Meanwhile, Carlo and Stefan were still fighting. And Nick was doing his best to intervene. But I knew this was something I’d have to deal with.

I jumped off the bed and grabbed a robe. After I slipped it on, I rushed in between my two angry men. “You guys need to stop,” I said as I pushed on both of their chests. “This is stupid. It’s the middle of the night.”

Eve spoke up from beside the bed, “She’s right. You’re going to wake up the kids. And then there’ll be even more screaming.”
