FaithOne Year Later

Who would have imagined that taking my second honeymoon on my own would lead to finding three amazing men, getting kidnapped by what I thought was a fictional character, or me finding my real happily ever after?

I sat looking out at the beach from my little cabin, and rested my hand on my still mostly flat stomach, watching for the boys to return from their daily run. Yep, I couldn't be happier. Living in the North Pole had taken a minor adjustment. Days and nights are very different when you live at the very top of the world, and trying to figure out time zones when it comes to attending client meetings proved to be a bit of a headache. But I was settled, and enjoying a post-Christmas vacation on the beach with my mates.

So, I would never get to spend Christmas day with them. Who cared? I spent it with Mrs. Claus, who is delightful, and my best friend Birdie, who had recently made the big move to the North Pole as well, but then her story is for a different time.

Cupid came jogging up to the cabin, his shirt tucked into the waistband of his trunks, and a gleeful grin splitting his handsome face. "You're up." He stopped and bent to lay a kiss on my upturned face. His lips are salty but soft. "We didn't want to wake you. You need your beauty sleep for this one." He held his palm over my hand where it lay on my belly. "Good morning, little one. You be good to your momma this morning."

"I think we've hit the end of the morning sickness." I accepted another kiss from my mate, with a smile on my face. "At least I hope so."

"I love you, momma." Cupid nuzzled his nose against mine and stole another kiss.

"I love you from head to mistletoe, Cupid."

THE END

Author's Note: Well, that's all folks. And just in time for Christmas. I'm toying with the idea of making this novella free for download through bookfunnel. I would love your opinion on that.
