Dex twists so he can look at Love.
"I need you to know a few things. I'm going to stay clean. I think maybe I should try meetings or something," Dex says, flinching when she fusses. "Shh. It's okay."
"May I?" Walker asks, stepping up to Dexter.
That guy is a baby junky. Anytime he gets more than a few feet away from her, he starts getting fidgety.
Dex hands him the baby.
Walker shuffles across the room.
Riggs watches Dex and Love unrepentantly.
"Dex?" Love tilts her head, studying him. "Are you serious?"
Dexter nods. "I should have done it before she was even born." He's been super emotional since we got to see them. He wraps Love up in his arms, and she shoots me a look of confusion.
"Careful," Riggs growls, leaning forward in his chair. "She just gave birth."
Dexter hugs Love.
"I'm fine," she says, squeezing Dexter's back. "If this is what you want to do… We support you one hundred percent."
Love catches my eyes, her face covered in shock.
Yeah, I did not see that shit coming either.
"You're really going to use the name I suggested?" Dexter asks with a hopeful look on his face that absolutely kills me. I have to clenchmyhands at my sides to keep myself from hugging him. But he's too close to Love right now.
I ache to climb into the bed at her side and pull her into my arms, but I'm too riled. I'm still feeling half-fucking-feral, and I'm afraid if I get too close I'll bite. Now isn't the time to fuck everything up by acting without thought.
"Yeah," she says, smiling. "She just looks like a Bellamy."
Dexter pulls Love's mouth to his, kissing her again.
I head to Walker and give him a look that says he better hand over my baby. He sighs, but places Bellamy in my arms. She's got a head of dark brown hair like Love's and deep blue eyes on the rare occasion they're actually open.
She's absolutely perfect, and I'm ninety-nine percent sure she's Dexter's.
I couldn't give a fuck less. She's ours. I'll kill anyone who tries to keep me from her. I nuzzle my cheek to hers, and she grunts.
My eyes catch Love's. "She's perfect."
"She is," she agrees, stretching back on the hospital bed.
I mouth,I love you.
Love grins.
Yeah, it's not hard to see. I'm done for. These two ladies own my fucking soul.
Chapter Forty-Four
Baby Love McKinley
Dexter is stretched out next to me on the hospital bed. Walker is cradling Bellamy to his chest, staring down at her like he's completely head over heels in love.
Vince and Issac left to go to a hotel to change and shower and try to find clothes.
