Daxton’s lips quirked in a humorless smile as he swirled the water in his glass.

“I don’t like children,” he murmured, almost to himself. His gaze dropped, shadowed by something Carrie couldn’t quite name.

“In a family like mine, love is a myth. Children aren’t raised—they’re forged, groomed to carry the weight of legacy. If that’s the only purpose of having a child, then I want no part of it.”
