Читать книгу The Rancher's Unexpected Baby - Jill Lynn - Страница 7

“I was trying not to wake you.”

Emma glanced over her shoulder. “Figured you could use the sleep.”

Gage joined her in the kitchen, rubbing the sleep from his eyes. “I didn’t even hear him until just now. Sorry.”

“You were out cold.” Emma finished shaking the bottle, then cradled the baby. “Go to bed, Gage. I’ve got him. You’re exhausted. Let me do this.”

His eyes pricked with a strange sensation. The woman was selfless. Emma watched out for him in a way that he wasn’t sure he’d ever experienced before outside his family. She made him want…a future. A wife. A family.

Her.

All things that he wasn’t sure he had enough faith to try again.

Frustration bubbled up. Why had Emma come into his life now? When it was too late?

Which was why he had to stop thinking of her as he’d begun to: his saving grace, his new beginning. Because she was none of those things for him. Not if he truly cared about her. Not if he wanted her to have the future she deserved.
