Chapter 150 : Meet Your Baby

*Jared*

Eliza's eyes were still glassy with tears, but I felt her heart beating rapidly in her chest. She fit so perfectly in my arms, and I couldn't help but feel like that was where she belonged.

A lot of the rewritten memories still swirled in my mind, but I kept them at bay while she basked in my presence.

I didn't want to hurt her, even if sometimes I felt like I didn't love her.

I opened my mouth to answer her questions but a loud chiming bell came from the ballroom.

“The naming ceremony is about to begin," a Royal Guardsman announced.

“Oh, that's our cue. We need to get in there!" Eliza grabbed my hand and pulled me into the ballroom.

I smiled lightly and went along with her antics. This was a special night and I had no intention of ruining it for her, or for anyone.

As we hurried into the ballroom, I caught Eliza using her thumb to touch up her makeup.

I squeezed her hand as she pulled me along, not wanting to let her go. We went straight for the table where Eliza's parents and brother were sitting.

Gemma held an infant dressed in white on her lap. The child had wide open eyes and little smile.

Eliza scooped the baby up and turned toward me.

I froze in place, staring at the baby who looked so much like a mix between Eliza and me. My heart swelled with so many emotions that I couldn't process it all.

I thought my heart might burst. Love flooded through me–happiness, amazement, and other emotions I had no names for.

At that moment, I knew without a doubt that I loved Eliza and wanted to be with her. The lingering doubts from Hestia's memory spell faded, and I couldn't imagine living my life without her for another day.

Eliza smiled, her cheeks turning red like she could tell what I was thinking.

“Jared, meet your daughter, Eloise Clara Crimson."

One Week Later

I rocked Eloise gently, keeping her fussing at bay while Eliza slept in for once.

She was so adorable, so beautiful, and I hadn't known my life was lacking her until I saw her with my own eyes. She was the light of my life, the center of my universe, right alongside Eliza.

I noticed Eliza watching me.

“Oh, you're awake."

She stretched and nodded. “I was just enjoying the morning show. She seems to really like you."

“Well, I hope so. I'm her father." I smirked. “Hey, you need to get up and get moving. We're heading back to the village today."

“Oh right. I should feed Eloise first."

I nodded and handed her the baby.
