The sympathy was self-explanatory. The guilt was because he’d had to force her to relive the ordeal, and the anger was directed against the narcissistic bastard who’d assaulted Lilli. And ultimately robbed them of a life they could have had together. “No, I’m not,” he told her. “I won’t be satisfied until I can beat Erik Dalton within an inch of his life.” “But he’s dead.” “Hence, my dilemma,” Kullen acknowledged with a straight face. It took her a second to realize he was kidding. Lilli laughed softly. “You always did know how to make me smile.” “We do what we can,” he quipped with affection. He kept it light. What he really wanted to say was that she should have come to him with this the moment she knew she was pregnant. It pained him to think of her facing something so huge on her own. He would have been there for her every step of the way if only he’d known. If only she’d trusted him to stand by her and not judge her. But for now he kept the question to himself.
