Scarlett:

“Hey, baby” I smiled, looking down at my daughter as they brought her to me to be fed.

She has been restless since we entered the house, and seeing as I believed that she might be hungry, I had them bring her to me.

I kissed her temple gently, watching as she relaxed almost instantly as I laid her on my chest, right over where my heart was beating. She cooed, closing her eyes, and putting a blanket over my shoulder, I unbuttoned my shirt, and pulled my bra down to feed her.

She grabbed my breast almost instantly, wrapping her lips around my nipple as she started drinking my milk and I smiled, running my finger over her cheek under the blanket. The nurse who was watching us didn’t say a word; however, I could feel her gaze on us, and that resulted in me looking up at her.

She only rests when she’s in your presence” the nurse said, smiling gently.

“A wolf’s instinct, I believe. But she’s okay” I said, smiling at my daughter. I knew that nothing was wrong with her, I was her mum, I would have felt it if it was any different. I just couldn’t understand why she reacted like she did when they took her away, and the thing was, her leaving was when Alexander usually saw her, and that only led him to claiming that it was my fault.

“Is there any possibility of bringing her crib here? I believe that she would be able…”

“Alpha Alexander forbade us to let her sleep outside her nursery, Ms. Scarlett” she said, stopping me. She looked down at her feet, avoiding my eyes as she spoke shyly. Her heart raced as she feared my reaction; however, I simply nodded, knowing that she was only doing her job. Alexander would have her head if she did anything that he told her against; therefore, I couldn’t blame her for that.

“No problem, I’ll go and sleep in her nursery then” I said, smiling at her. I looked down at my daughter who finished eating before pulling her from my nipple. I slowly raised my shirt before resting Anastasia over my shoulder, gently tapping her back as I encouraged her to croak. She cooed, and I smiled in satisfaction, knowing that she was more relaxed than she was earlier today. Seeing her in that incubator made my heart throb, but seeing her now, in my arms, gave my wolf a sense of relaxation that I have never felt before.

Anastasia croaked before cooing, and pulling her to lay on my chest, I smiled when she opened her eyes to look at me. Her beautiful bluish green made my heart skip a beat, and getting up from my bed, I nodded at the nurse to guide me to her nursery. Her eyes were fixed on us for a second, and seeing as she didn’t move, I frowned in confusion only to catch sight of Alexander who was watching us in silence.

“You can leave” he said, looking at the nurse who nodded. She took a step back, and walking out of the room, she closed the door, leaving us alone. Alexander took a step toward us, and towering over my body, he cupped our daughter’s cheek, his touch as gentle as can be, as he kept his eyes on hers. His tattooed ha’nd was covered with a glove, and frowning at the sight of it, I shook my head in question “I came here with the bike, hence the glove”

“You didn’t really need to answer that, I was just curious as you never really put them on Bike or not” I said, and he nodded.

“Where were you going?” He asked, removing his hand from her cheek as he looked at me.

“To my daughter’s nursery. Seeing as I can’t have her sleeping in my room, I’ll go and sleep there” I said, looking at him, studying his expression. To my surprise, he simply nodded in response, not saying a word to object or argue on the topic. If anything, he seemed to be okay with it.

Alexander opened the door for me, guiding me toward the nursery, and entering the room, my eyes widened in surprise when I saw that it had a king sized bed beside Anastasia’s crib. A changing table was in the far end of the room by what I assumed was the bathroom’s door, and a closet I looked at Alexander who smiled, crossing his arms over his chest as he looked at me

“I assumed that you wouldn’t want her sleeping alone, therefore, I had them put a bed here for when you wanted to stay. Plus, it is best for her to actually sleep along our sides to learn our breathing patterns ..”

“Our?”

“I am her father, aren’t l?” He asked, taking me by surprise.

Of course, you are; but I didn’t really expect you to want to share a bed…”

“The two of us have shared more beds than I think I’ve shared with anyone. Yes, I’ve touched you once, but I don’t think that sharing a bed would be an issue. Plus, it won’t be a daily basis thing, but if I ever want to sleep in my daughter’s room, I don’t think that you should have a problem with that” he said, raising an eyebrow at me, clearly challenging me to say anything against it. Of course I didn’t have anything against what he wanted to do. The little one is his too, and me not allowing him to sleep in her room would be unfair for the both of them; however, I just never expected him to want anything with her to begin with.

“I am just surprised by your reaction. One minute you were claiming that she might not be yours to keep Delilah, and the next you were suddenly wanting to keep her. You even named her, and that wasn’t something that I expected considering the facts that were all against us” I said, holding my daughter tightly, ensuring that she didn’t fall.

“Anastasia, or Nasia, means miracle. It is why I chose the name. You never know, she could be the miracle that this pack was searching for” he said, taking a step toward me. He wrapped his hand around my waist, pulling me closer as he kissed my forehead. My cheek reddened as I processed what he meant, and his action before he pulled away to nod at the bed.

“Have the maids help you shower and change her if you want, then let her sleep. You need to rest as well; therefore, try getting as much as rest before we go out tomorrow”

“Where are we going?” I asked, frowning in confusion.

“First, you need to get new clothes. For both you and the baby. Second, we need to get things to celebrate the baby shower. We had an Alpha born baby, and I believe that you know our traditions well enough to know that it requires a celebration” he said, taking a step back to walk to the door “get some rest today, we’ll talk about all the details tomorrow”

“Yes, Alpha” I said, not bothering to object, knowing that he was right. I was against celebrating a newborn baby, especially when I didn’t know whether or not she was completely stable to be around others; however, I knew that he was right, and that this WAS part of pack traditions. Plus, my daughter was not just a ‘regular’ wolf. She was this pack’s heir, and that was something that 1 should be proud of.

I looked doWn at my daughter and couldn’t help but smile as I saw that she was looking at me before I walked tofard the changing table, laying her on it.

“Come on, little one, let’s get you ready for bed before we go and rest too, okay?”
