"All I need is you." She whispers, "My love."
I lean down and kiss her softly, my heart bursting with love. "Our babies are healthy."
"They were so small." She tells me, shaking her head, "They were born too early. I..."
"It'll be okay." I promised her, running my fingers through her hair in a soothing way, hoping I could make her feel better, "You did everything that you were supposed to. Don't worry."
"I hope so."
"Trust me."
She nods, closing her eyes, "I trust you."
I smiled, knowing that it wasn't a lie.
"I'm going to take good care of all three of you." I promised her, "You'll see."
"Okay." She's drifting off, the medicine still working on her.
"Rest, Hannah." I murmur, kissing her forehead, "We'll be here when you wake up."
She nods, a little sluggish, "okay."
I watch her fall asleep, holding her hand. I'm not letting go of her. Never again.
Chapter Six
Hannah
A week later, we were able to take Zandria and Alexander home. I'm not even sure where home is at this point but I asked Onyx if he was okay if we go back to my place that I've been living in for right now. He didn't seem to mind it but on his face, I could tell that he was longing to go back to the mountains. I'm feeding Zandria, noticing very much how Onyx's eyes are locked on my breasts. Unfortunately, we wouldn't be able to have sex for about ten weeks but I can live with that.
He's already said that it was okay.
"I can't believe how perfect they are." He murmurs, reaching over and taking Zandria's hand.
"Me neither."
"I'm glad that they are healthy."
"I was so scared."
"I know." He says, leaning down and kissing my forehead, "It'll be okay. I'm here now."
"You are."
I lean back and he takes Zandria from me, holding her against his chest, his large hand dwarfing her little head.
"God, she's beautiful." He whispers, his eyes welling up, "I'm so proud."
"Thank you, Onyx." I tell him, feeling a sense of relief wash over me, "Thank you for being here."
"Always."
Onyx is truly a wonderful father, making me even more happy to have him around. I was a little nervous about telling him about his children at first but when I finally did, he was over the moon.
"You made the best babies in the world." He says, kissing my cheek, "Thank you."
"Well, I'm pretty sure that you had some influence." I tease him back.
