his chair. He looked at me and then opened his file. He

looked at me again.

“I got your blood work back and everything came back normal.”

I sighed with relief. “Thank god. Then why have I been so tired lately?” I asked.

Dr. Taub looked at me and smiled. “You’re pregnant, Ellery.”

“Shut the fuck up!” Peyton blurted out.

My mouth dropped open as I sat there in shock. “Are you sure, Dr. Taub?”

“Yes, I’m sure. According to these numbers, you’re about eight weeks along. You need to make an

appointment as soon as possible with your OB/GYN and start preparing for a healthy pregnancy.”

Peyton hugged me when we stepped outside the hospital. “I’m so happy for you and Connor. I know

this is what you both wanted so badly.”

“Connor’s going to be ecstatic; I can’t wait to see the look on his face when I tell him!”

I went back to the penthouse and laid down for a nap. I put my hands on my stomach and smiled. I

couldn’t believe there was a baby growing inside me. This was perfect timing. Connor’s birthday is

in a few days and telling him he’s going to be a father will be the best present for him. I finally fell

asleep when I felt warm lips traveling across my face. I opened my eyes as Connor was staring at me.

“Are you ok, baby? You’re starting to worry me with all these naps you’ve been taking lately.”

“I promise you that I’m perfectly fine, and there’s no need to worry about me,” I smiled. I pulled

him on top of me and we made love before dinner. It was the best way to distract him from my naps.

It was Connor’s birthday, and I couldn’t wait to give him his gift and tell him the news. It was so

hard to keep my pregnancy a secret from him. I woke him up the way any man would want to be

woken up. He opened his eyes and smiled as he looked down at me.

“Happy Birthday, my love,” I smiled as I took him in my mouth.

“You’re a very naughty girl, but thank you,” he moaned. I made sure that he was well taken care of,

and that his day started off just right. I told him to stay put as I got up, walked to the dresser, and

pulled a box from the drawer. I handed it to him and told him to open it. A grin graced his face as he

took the watch he wanted out of the box.

“I love it, Ellery; thank you,” he said as he kissed me.

“You better love it since it’s the one you picked out,” I said.

“Oh, is that so?” he laughed as he pinned me to the bed and started tickling me.

I laughed and squirmed as I tried to make him stop. He finally did stop but only after I told him I

was going to pee in the bed. I looked at him as he laid there smiling at me.

“I have another present for you.”

“Babe, the watch was enough,” he said as he stroked my hair.

“I racked my brain, trying to figure out what to get the man who has everything in the world. Then

suddenly, a gift, something you don’t already have, fell right into my lap,” I smiled.

“Oh, really? What is it?”

I brought the back of my hand to his face and stroked it up and down as I stared into his eyes. “I’m

pregnant, Connor. You’re going to be a daddy.”

He looked at me as tears formed in his eyes. “Are you 100% sure, Elle?”

“Yes, Connor, I had the blood work done, and Dr. Taub confirmed it; Happy Birthday, daddy.”

He jumped up and grabbed me. “I can’t believe this. The doctor said it would take a year to

conceive a child. How far along are you?”

“Dr. Taub said that I’m about eight weeks along. The way I calculated it, we got pregnant on our

wedding night.”

Connor hugged me tight. “That explains why you haven’t been feeling well and taking so many

naps. Thank you, baby; this is the best birthday that I’ve ever had,” he whispered as he kissed me. “I

can’t believe I’m going to be a father.” We made love for a couple of hours and then headed to the

beach house for Connor’s birthday party.

Chapter 31

CONNOR

It was the best birthday that I’ve ever had. We celebrated at the beach house with about 70 close

friends and family members. I made the announcement about Ellery’s pregnancy, and the whole room

beamed with excitement. I still couldn’t believe it myself, and every time I looked at her, she was

glowing. Ellery had arranged it so the party was mainly outside between the patio and the beach. It

was a beautiful summer evening. When the last of the guests left, Ellery turned and looked at me.

“I’m exhausted,” she said as she fell into my arms.

“Thank you for the wonderful party,” I said as I kissed her on top of her head.

“Have I told you lately that I love you?” she smiled as she looked up at me.

“You tell me every day over and over again,” I smiled back as I picked her up. I held her as she

wrapped her legs around me and grinned.

“I love you, and I will never let you go. We are forever, Mrs. Black, and nothing will ever change

that.” I kissed her as I carried her into the house and upstairs to bed.

Over the next couple of months, I watched Ellery’s belly grow. She was just as beautiful pregnant.

She was happy and had a
