"Why are you on the chair?"

"I did not want to jostle you. How are you feeling?"

"Like I have been in a car wreck and was shot."

"Both those things happened to you."

Her eyes searched his face. "Aren't you going to start yelling at me?"

"I am waiting until the bandage is off." Scooting forward, he kissed her fingers and then kissed her lips. "If you ever scare me like that again, I am going to paddle your butt."

"Noted." Lifting her hand, she touched his cheek. "I was so damn scared."

"I know." He covered her hand with his. "The bastard is dead."

"I killed him." She shuddered out a breath.

"Before he could kill you. I do not want you to have any kind of remorse over that son of a bitch. He deserved worse."

"He accused me of being impure. He said he would take me to the cabin and remove me." She blinked back the tears. "Oh, Callum."

"Shh, baby." Leaving the chair, he came to sit on the edge of the bed. "We don't want to upset you while you are in this condition."

"What condition?"

A smile touched his face. "When were you going to tell me?"

"Tell you what?"

He simply stared at her. "You did not know?"

"Callum Anthony Hammond, I am about to blow a fuse. Tell you what?"

Shaking his head, he laughed softly. "That you are pregnant."

Her eyes widened as she stared at him. "What?"

"Six weeks pregnant, darling."

"Oh my God." Dragging her hand away, she pressed it to her stomach. "We are going to have a baby?"

His grin widened. "It seems that way, which means we are going to get hitched sooner than later." he cocked a brow at her. "And I dare you to disagree."

"I am pregnant," The tears started rolling down her cheeks. "I am going to have a baby."

"And a husband."

"God help me." She said with a shaky laugh.

"He will, darling." They both looked up as the doctor and two nurses entered the room.

"Ah, you are awake. I am Dr. Hylton, and these are nurses Dyer and Simpson. We just have to take your vital signs."

"I will be right outside, darling."

"There is a young man in the waiting room; he says you are his brother."

"I will go and assure him that you are all right. I will be right back."
