Lilac P.O.V

I walk up the few steps to the mall's entrance and smile when the warm air hits my cold skin. Landon wasn't far behind as his hand was resting on my lower back, as if ready to catch me if I fall or something.

Like we planned yesterday, we were shopping for the baby's nursery. I had already made a somewhat mental list of what we needed, and I couldn't help but think of extra decorations for the nursery already!

I already had an ideas of what I wanted the nursery to look like, I've been babbling about it since yesterday and all Landon could do was laugh and shake his head. I have to say though, going through such a special moment with Landon. My father. Has made me fall in love over and over.

I ran my hands over my sweater covered arms, it was colder outside than yesterday and it didn't seem like it would let up soon. Landon wasn't feeling the cold apparently, he was wearing a black short sleeved shirt that made me think naughty thoughts just by looking at him.

I quickly turn my attention away from him as I feel my core start to tingle. If I keep thinking like that, Landon will know for sure what I'm thinking about. Focus on shopping for the baby, Lilac... Focus on the baby, not Landon's díck.

I lead Landon into the store and waddle over to the baby section, my attention is immediately taken by the strollers. Apart from our colors being blue, white, orange and grey, we are getting a normal colored stroller. I turn around to look at Landon and frown when I don't see him, but I do happen to see a store lady.

"Can I help you with anything, Ma'am?" She ask, I suck in a breath as I look around the many baby supplies. Maybe I did need some help, I look at the woman and nod my head.

"My husband has wandered off somewhere, so I'll just continue without him. Can you lead me to the changing stations?" I say sweetly, the lady nods with a smile and starts to walk two aisles down from where we were. In front of me was three tall shelves of changing stations.

"If you need anything, Ma'am, I'm always in this section so you can find me easily" She said as she turns around and walks away. I turn my attention to the shelves and start searching for a grey changing station. So many shades of grey, how do you choose?

"Wow, baby shopping! By the way, you should choose the one on the left, Lilac" A familiar voice says behind me, I let out a sigh and turn around to meet Mason's ocean blue eyes. A playful smile played on his lips as if teasing me, I roll my eyes but none the less, I turn around and look at the changing station on the left.

It was a pretty shade of grey...

"What are you doing here, Mason?" I ask without turning around. If Landon saw him, I couldn't really be sure what his reaction would be, I'm pretty sure it would be better than trying to attack him... Hopefully.

"You can't get rid of me, Lilac. It's not like you can kill me" He says, I let out a light laugh as I run my hand across the wood of the changing station. He was right, I couldn't kill him and not like I knew how anyway, there was only a limited amount of ways to kill a sorcerer and ninety percent of those ways required you to be a sorcerer yourself.

"I guess your right then, Mason" I say as I turn around to face him, Mason looks around and then finally focuses on me with a curious glint in his eyes.

"Where's your mate?" He asks, I shrug as I start walking to the bottle section.

"He walked off-" I was cut off abruptly by Landon's deep voice. Where the hell did he disappear to? I swear, men think they can just walk into oblivion when you're pregnant with their child...

"I'm right here. Sorry, Lilac, James called me" Landon explains, I nod without turning around. Landon walks behind me and wraps his strong arm around my waist, his warm lips press against my neck quickly before pulling away.
