Chapter 46: Sofia
A guard waves our car through the gate, and we pull into the wooded grounds of the Valentini compound.
Roman received a text from my father informing him that the Russian threat has been eliminated. I’m no longer in danger, and my security detail has been called off.
It’s a relief to have one less issue to worry about.
My hand rests on my stomach as Roman navigates the long driveway. Neither of us said much during the twenty-minute ride. I think we’re both in shock. I know I am. I may have suspected this outcome, but was still unprepared for it. I shift on the seat as Roman glances at me and wait for him to start this much-needed conversation.
He doesn’t though. He just continues to drive in silence as the test results flash through my brain for the hundredth time.
I’m pregnant.
I’m going to give birth to a tiny human being in less than nine months.
