Married at First Sight novel (Serenity and Zachary York)

Enzo and Avah often start fighting over toys after just a couple of minutes. Enzo always loses to Avah and ends up crying, attracting the attention of the adults.

Sometimes, when Enzo can’t win, he throws himself at Avah. They can both sit up but are still a bit wobbly. Enzo’s trick usually works—he knocks Avah down and then bites her.

Though they both lack teeth, they still bite each other. Whether it hurts, only they know. But no matter what happens, it usually ends with Enzo crying.

When Avah wakes up and sees her mother nearby, she wants to follow her. Avah is smart and doesn’t cry often, but she knows how to mimic her brother’s howl to get attention. When she does, her mother gently picks her up. It turns out that the crying child does get the milk.

Seeing Serenity, Avah opened her arms, asking to be held. Serenity, noticing Jane didn’t mind, leaned over and picked Avah up.
