Chapter 63

Sophie’s pov

“He does,” I whispered in agreement and cut the distance between Mila and me. Ash leaps into my arms quickly and I giggle.

“How’s my baby boy this morning? Sorry, I woke you up so early bug.” I whispered, hugging him to me and planted a kiss on his head. He giggles, curling his little arms around my neck to hug me.
