Ivy held the baby carefully, but her eyes were wide with shock. "What... how..."

Silas's heart flipped at the tremble in her voice, and he stepped closer. "Do you...

want me

to take him?"

"No," she said. "It's... just..." She trailed off, then turned to the officer. "How am I

supposed to take care of a child that isn't mine?"

"You don't have to, ma'am," the officer replied gently. "We can take him, but he

would be placed in foster care until we find his mother or a relative."

Silas watched Ivy closely. Of course, it was hard and humiliating to care for a child

born from an affair that changed her life.

Still, leaving the baby in foster care didn't feel right.

She squeezed her hand and she looked at him, uncertainty clouding her

expression. "Whatever you do is fine," he said softly.

She had every right to walk away. Especially after everything that had happened.

The baby cooed, and both of them looked down. Ivy reached out, and his tiny

fingers wrapped tightly around hers.

Silas saw something shift in her then, and he knew her answer even before she

spoke.

"I'll keep him," she said quietly.

The officer gave a small nod. "Alright, ma'am."

Ivy held the baby tightly-shaky, but firm. "Yeah."

"So, officer," Silas asked, hoping to shift the conversation, "what's the update?"

"We're still searching for his mother," the officer said. "All available units are

working on it. We've already checked with Mason Hunter's family and searched

his properties, but nothing has turned up yet."

"How did you find him?" Ivy asked, rocking the baby gently.

"When we released an Amber Alert, a woman came forward. Apparently, she had

already contacted us after finding the baby and taking him home."

"Did... she see anything?" Silas asked.

"No. She said she found the baby alone in the car."

Ivy's brow furrowed. "But wasn't the driver unconscious? How did she not see

him?"

"I'm not sure," the officer said. "You'll have to fill out some documents before you

can take him home."

Silas feared Ivy might continue questioning the officer, but thankfully she bit her lip

and nodded. "Okay."

"Right this way, ma'am," the officer said, leading them down the hall.

Panic returned in her eyes, and her cheeks turned red, but she went, holding the

baby awkwardly yet protectively.
