Wild at Heart (Wild, #2)

by K.A. Tucker

I frown at the silver truck parked next to ours outside the hangar. There’s no doubt whose it is. A magnetic sign with her veterinarian clinic name clings to the door. But what is Marie doing at our house at 6:45 a.m.? Does this have something to do with Oscar? As far as I know, the wolf dog is back home with Roy, slowly healing from his leg wound. “… and then everything blew up from there.” Jonah’s voice carries from the gaping hangar door, stalling my feet. “So, I guess you didn’t get a chance to ask her, then.” Marie’s soft, sympathetic voice answers “You kidding? There wasn’t exactly a way to segue back to marriage after that.” It’s clear they’re talking about what happened yesterday. Jonah must have told Marie he was going to propose. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised. She’s his closest friend. And yet, an unpleasant feeling settles in the pit of my stomach, knowing that he has obviously divulged the pregnancy scare to her as well. It feels like a betrayal of confidence. It’s something private between the two of us that we haven’t fully discussed, and yet here he is, talking about it with her. That’s why Marie is here. Jonah must have called her. He needed to talk about it with someone who isn’t me.
