Chapter 145

Epilogue

Daisy (because favorite couple)

“What do you think about adopting a child?” I ask my husband while trying to squeeze myself into a tight pair of jeans.

Xavier and I live in the magical realm now, but we are heading out on a date in the human world. Our life is close to perfect. I’m happy, but there is always a but.

I want another baby.

Since I’m an immortal being now, I don’t get any periods, and I know I can’t have one myself. But I’m not against adopting a homeless child from the magical realm’s newly opened orphanage.

“I’m not against it,” Xavier says as he strides inside the bathroom. His lips twitch when he sees me struggling to get inside of my jeans. “Tight?”

I shoot him a deadly glare. “You could have told me that I still gain weight after becoming immortal.”

He smirks. “What would be the fun in that? It’s been a pleasure seeing you enjoy food and drinks without a single care in the world. Besides, I kind of like this…”

He comes up

behind me and squeezes my butt.

I instant heat pools between my legs as I yelp and swat at his thick bicep. “Xavier!”

“What? Can’t I shower my wife with affection?” he teases, his hands moving up to wrap around my waist, pulling me closer. A glint sparkles in his different–colored eyes. The red and green look very mischievous today. “And about the adoption… I think it’s a wonderful idea.”

I feel my heart flutter with excitement as I turn around to meet his gaze, my struggles with the jeans forgotten.

“Really?”

“Absolutely,” he tells me, brushing a loose strand of hair from my face with the utmost care. “I miss taking care of a child, and having one around would make the house livelier.”

soft sigh of relief escapes my lips, and I wrap my arms around him, burying my face in his t–shirt. “I was worried say no,” I confess.
