Alpha's Regret: The Seventh Time was Forever novel Chapter 304

Chapter 304: Chapter 304 – Give me a baby brother

Marigold shook her head right away. "No. Only in the pack. Sometimes I miss her and when I try really hard to think about her, I begin to shake."

It was clear that Marigold’s attempt to communicate with the moon goddess in the city was the reason for the seizures.

Seraphine took that in without showing much on her face. Most people would have smiled and brushed it off but Seraphine didn’t.

A child with that kind of connection, only appearing on sacred pack ground, the physical trembling when the link got strained, wasn’t imagination or a random dream.

That was a gifted child. A seer, maybe. A shaman in the making. The kind of soul born already standing close to something most people spend their whole lives trying to touch.

Seraphine tucked it somewhere close to her heart. She also kept the DNA test idea tucked in the back of her mind, not because she doubted what she felt when she looked at this little girl, but because she was a doctor first, and she needed real answers.

She brought her hand up and cupped the side of Marigold’s small face. "Now that I’m here," she said quietly, "I’m going to take good care of you. That’s a real promise."

With her daughter here, she wasn’t going anywhere. Whatever she lost being separated from her, it was time to begin filling the gap.

Now it all made sense, just as Corvine said. Who knows, Marigold might have fallen into the house of a good family who cherishes her. Indeed, she fell into the right hands and Voren would kill to keep her safe.

Marigold leaned into her palm and looked up at her with those serious blue eyes, sitting with the words for a moment the way kids do when something actually matters. Then her expression changed into something wide open and completely direct.

"Are you going to marry daddy?" she asked, eyes as big as they could possibly get.

Seraphine looked at her. She couldn’t look away. She tried, but she simply couldn’t.

The wild hair. The bright blue eyes. The total lack of any clue that this was a huge, complicated question asked with the same casual confidence as wondering what was for breakfast.

She was just too damn cute.

"That is such a big question for a little girl," Seraphine pulled Marigold’s nose playfully before turning serious. "I really don’t know yet, but I promise to be your mommy for real."

Marigold did not look pleased. She knew things bigger than her age. "Mommy, marry daddy before the blood moon festival," she said seriously, Seraphine was confused by how she could know about that too.

"Did she tell you about the Blood Moon festival too or did you hear it from daddy? Do you have any idea what’s going to happen?"

Before Marigold could open her mouth, Voren had entered the room with a tray so Marigold embraced Seraphine and headed out. "Mommy, have a good rest, and give me a baby brother."

Seraphine could feel the heat climbing to her cheeks as the little girl ran out of the room.

The need to claim her, to bury himself inside her and remind her exactly who she belonged to, was burning through his veins like fire. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦
