I leaned down and pressed a lingering kiss against her lips, needing her to know how happy I was right now. It felt like every missing piece of my life finally fell into place. I was complete.
“Stay with us forever,” I told her.
Aisling nodded.
“Forever,” she promised before glancing at Adder as the triplets cooed at him and gently touched his tiny hands. “He’s so loved. So safe with you guys.”
“With you too,” I replied as our eyes met. “You’re one of the strongest people that I know. Adder is safe and healthy because of you.”
“I’m alive because of you guys,” Aisling reminded me.
“That just shows that we’re all better together,” I said, sharing a warm look with her. We were happier with her in our lives, and I was determined to put a smile on her face every single day for the rest of her life.
After a few minutes of visiting, the doctor walked over.
“How are we feeling?” he asked Aisling.
“Good. Mostly tired,” Aisling replied, squeezing my hand as I remained by her side.
“When can they go home?” Auden asked the doctor.
“Tomorrow. We want to keep her overnight to keep an eye on her,” the doctor said. “But you should be fine to go home with your baby tomorrow.”
Aisling let out a sigh of relief.
“Good. I want to be back in my PJ’s. This hospital gown isn’t it,” she replied.
The doctor chuckled a little before leaving to talk to the nurse.
Chris smirked at Aisling.
“Not happy with your accommodations, princess?” he teased her.
“I heard the Jell-O is good,” Aisling replied with a light laugh. “I guess I’ll test that later.”
“If you need anything, let us know. We’ll go get it,” Lincoln told her.
“All I want is my family with me,” Aisling told us before Bradley placed Adder back in her arms. She smiled down at our son, lightly stroking his little nose. She swallowed hard with teary eyes. “This is all I want. You guys and him.”
My world was right here in this room.
Without my family, I was nothing, and I would do anything in my power to protect them.
Our biggest threat was taken down tonight, and the future of our club was secure. Hopefully, peace was ahead, and we didn’t have any more dangerous surprises lurking around the corner.
I was ready to just be happy with my family.
“We’re not going anywhere,” Hayden assured her as he rubbed her shoulder. “Nothing will change that.”
Aisling gave everyone a grateful smile and nodded, blinking away her happy tears to the best of her ability.
“I just love you guys so much that I’m afraid to lose you. You’re the best thing that has ever happened to me,” she said before looking down at Adder. “We have the perfect son because of you guys.”
Adder was going to be incredible. He would be strong, smart, brave, and caring. A mixture of the best of everyone.
I couldn’t wait to watch him grow into his own person, bringing his own strengths to the Iron Serpents. I wouldn’t mind him becoming an older brother down the road either.
“You should rest now. We’ll watch Adder,” I told her as I stroked her hair, knowing that she was exhausted. I could tell from how her eyelids kept fluttering from being so heavy.
