"Santiago, I am tired. Keep the baby safe, okay?"
His face softened as he kissed Persephone's sweaty face again. "I promise I will keep the baby safe. Go to sleep, love. I will keep both of you safe."
Persephone smiled with closed eyes and drifted to sleep.
As Persephone passed out, a nurse appeared with a wide smile on her face. She said, "Mr Vitello, would you like to see your baby girl?"
Santiago blinked his eyes at the nurse.
Baby girl?
What on earth was happening?
Before he even had the chance to say anything, a nurse appeared with the smallest creature possible swaddled in her arms.
Once again, guys, what was happening?
Where was his son?
The nurse asked him to open his arms and she put the baby in his arms. When Santiago looked at the pink human in his arms, she was blinking those big eyes of hers that he believed were blue just like his own at him in sheer curiosity.
