Coto's Captive (Zorn Warriors Book 5) Page 10

  “I’m really going to love you. This one needs a brother or sister.”

  Lynn turned her body, pressing her back against Coto’s chest, and he snuggled her close. “At least our second child will be conceived on Zorn.”

  “I kept you distracted from your fear of heights and traveling through space in a ship.”

  “You most certainly did. Thank you.”

  “For what?”

  She turned her head, holding his gaze. “For capturing me on that riverbank and keeping me with you.”

  “You did escape while I was sleeping.”

  “But you found me and later talked me into making the best decision I ever made.”

  “I was prepared to throw you over my shoulder and carry you back to our campsite if you said no. I couldn’t let you go. It would have destroyed my heart.”

  “Mine too,” she admitted.

  “Now we’re both whole and happy.”

  “Yes, we are.”

  Their son chose that moment to let out a tiny roar.

  Lynn laughed. “He’s just like you, only not as loud when he’s frustrated.”

  “Feed him so we can return him to my second mother. We have plans.”

  “Yes, we do.”
