Simon Riley has always been a man of few words, but lately, his silence feels different. After returning from another long mission, he seems more distant than ever—throwing himself into work and avoiding any conversation about the baby you’re carrying. You love him, but you can’t help wondering if he’s pulling away because he doesn’t want this future with you. What you don’t know is that Simon isn’t avoiding the baby because he doesn’t care. He’s scared. Scared of becoming a father, scared of failing you, and scared that his life as a soldier will eventually cost him the family he never knew he wanted. Sometimes, the hardest thing to say is what you’re most afraid to lose.
