“I can let Seth have it all,” I say. “My body, the baby, and you. He deserves it. You deserve someone who can always be present for you, not just sometimes.”
“And what about what you deserve? It was your pain too. It’s your life too. You can’t just give it up because you think it will be easier. And don’t tell me you’re doing this for me without even asking me what I want.”
“Aurelia, what if the cycle repeats itself? What if one of us hurts our kid? I know Seth won’t, but Bane isdangerous. I can keep him away like Seth did, but for good this time. Seth obviously figured out how, which means there’s a way. I can keep you and the baby safe.”
“You can’t assume that because you and your mom had the same disorder that it makes you the same. That’s bullshit. You are not a danger to our child. Bane isn’t going to hurt me. He isn’t going to hurt the baby. You have to stop being afraid of him. Bane isn’t the monster you think he is. You just have to trust me and give this a chance. We can have it all. You just have to believe it.”
“Are you sure?”
“Sure that I love you and don’t want you to leave me? Of course I’m sure.”
“I love you too.”
The front door creaks open, and I look over Aurelia’s head to see Thorin and Khalil sneaking inside. They don’t bother to look around. Their focus is on Aurelia before shifting to me and seeing that I’m okay too.
“Everything okay?” Khalil asks.
I don’t expect Aurelia to spin around and tattle on me, but that’s what happens. At first, they’re distracted by her puffy face soaked with tears, and then their worried faces turn into deep scowls and vicious curses when her words finally penetrate.
“Don’t worry, songbird. Seth would never have allowed it. At first, he would have been ecstatic at never having to leave you, but the moment he knew how sad the loss of Zeke made you, he would have done anything to make it better.”
Khalil, who had been quiet until now, hauls off and punches me out of nowhere. Pain explodes in my shoulder, and I glare at him as he lifts a brow. “Next time you start talking that crazyshit, it’ll be your face. We are a family, and the family isn’t complete without you.”
I glance at Thorin who’s staring at my other shoulder. Aurelia must notice too because she suddenly throws herself in front of me. “No more hitting Zeke. Use your words. We want him towantto stay.” And then she waddles for the front door, grumbling under her breath, “I’ve attached myself to idiots.”
“Foreeeever,” the three of us chorus as we follow her out of the house.
CONGRATS ARE IN ORDER! AURELIA GIVES BIRTH TO THE CUTEST BOUNCING BOY

Singer Aurelia stuns the world with a recent Instagram post after confirming that she’s just given birth to a healthy son. Among the outpouring of congratulations and well wishes to the new mother, some are happy to finally have their suspicions confirmed while others, like myself, are simply in shock.
It begs the question: Why the secrecy?
One might wonder if the public claims made by Aurelia’s uncle and former manager in the upcoming conservatorship hearing are true and that the pop singer’s relationship with her bodyguards/boy toys is more than what it seems. Her fans certainly hope so despite the concerning rumors of how the relationship started. Votes and hopes are already underway regarding which of those stunning specimens is the biological father to baby Nico. Everyone certainly seems to have their favorites.
So, is it possible?
Does the gorgeous, talented, mega-rich, and widely adored Aurelia George have a harem of hotties? While that term and its usage may spark debate as well the question of its validity and social acceptance, one fact remains indisputable.
Some girls…have all the luck.

So when does he become fun?” Seth asks as he stares inside Nico’s crib that Khalil built for him, along with the rocking chair that I often sit in when feeding our son.
Our son is eight weeks old today, and I’m still reeling from actually giving birth to a little human. My days are filled with cuddling, nursing, and changing diapers and then living in between more cuddling, nursing, and changing diapers. I’m most surprised by how much it doesn’t bother me. I amobsessedwith the little guy.
“Fun?” Khalil echoes distractedly as he adjusts the blue cap over the wisps of blond hair on Nico’s little head.
I watch through the camera in the nursery as Seth gestures to the baby, who’s asleep even now. “He kind of just lays there all day like a potato. I want to play with him.”
Thorin sighs from the rocking chair where he’s flipping through one of the baby books. “Babies aren’t toys, Seth.”
“I know that, but how are we supposed to get to know the little guy if all he does is sleep, shit, and hog Sunshine? I mean, what do wereallyknow about this kid? Except for the fact that he’s a titty hog.”
