KESTER

I couldn't fucking believe it.

I was going to be a father.

That one sliver of light amidst all this mess and chaos. This was the one thing that made it all worth it. The one thing that made sense

I had known Kasmine would be mad at me when I took the decision upon myself. But I had to be selfish to get what I wanted. Because Kasmine was way too stubborn and too blinded by what she thought was right. So I did what I had to do.

If I had waited for her approval, we'd still be walking in circles, playing this game of almosts and maybes. And I couldn't afford that.

And, fuck, the pregnancy came just at the right time. At one point, I was scared, thinking it wouldn't happen just yet.

And the moment she threatened to leave me the moment I got June engaged, I almost lost my fucking mind. I wanted to rip the whole damn world apart if it meant keeping her.

So I prayed.

I fucking prayed-to whoever the hell was listening - Selene, the goddess? Draegor, the god of hell? Or the overall God who resides in heaven?

I didn't care. I just begged.

And someone heard me.

It was like a miracle. Like fate stepped in and said, "Hey! Here's your chance. Don't fuck it up."

And I won't. I swear, I won't.

I decided to give her some space to think and reflect on all she told me that night and to see that this wasn't the end... It was just the beginning of something so new and beautiful. Even though I made sure to station guards around Claire's house to ensure she didn't do anything stupid.

I called Claire and told he that she had some days off work, but I didn't give her a reason. My actual reason was that I needed her to stay with Kasmine uninterrupted.

It was just two more days before her birthday, and I was already going crazy, thinking of the best gift for her. At first, it was just about her. But now? When we had little Kasmine or little Kester growing inside her... Or probably both... I would like to gift her something even better. Something that would cover for the baby, also.
