Zephyr sighed with a hand over his face.
His days before he had a son had been great… Cordelia had been gentle and docile like a bunny and liked to snuggle him the most—she had claimed that it was where she felt the safest in the world…
Now?
Their son had taken over her, her heart, and her entire world!
Zephyr came up with ways to change this. Weaning Zuko was one of his solutions.
When the baby was six months old, Cordelia produced less milk, and the quality was not that great. Zuko was also teething then, and his gum was sore, so Cordelia was often in pain from all the gnawing.
Once, when the baby fed and gnawed simultaneously and Zephyr saw how Cordelia bit her lips, refusing to cry out even when she was sweating in pain, his heart squeezed.
She dared not cry out because she feared scaring the baby, but Zephyr was not letting Zuko get his way. He picked up a toy on the side, attracting their son’s attention. As expected, Zuko let go, and his eyes followed the toy.
Zephyr smirked. He knew the baby was not hungry but just wanted to teeth at something!
“What are you doing?” Cordelia widened her eyes.
While she and Zuko were still at a loss, Zephyr scooped the baby up and swiftly handed him to the nanny, ordering, “Take him out and give him formula!”
The nanny and caretaker took Zuko to another room. Cordelia hurried to them before she could even dress properly, not forgetting to glare at Zephyr.
Despite that, Zephyr stopped her and kept her tightly in his arms.
“Let go of me!” Cordelia punched and hit him. “Zuko’s not full yet!”
“He has a nanny and formula. He won’t go hungry!” Zephyr said sternly, “You instead, stop breastfeeding from now on!”
“What?”
