As he gave his welcoming remarks, Tasha snuck to Brad’s side. He gave her a quick kiss and murmured, “You did it.”
“Of course.” She kissed Mia’s cheek. “All of this is for her, after all, to give her a better future. I would’ve fought off tanks to make it happen.”
He snorted. “I didn’t realize you had superpowers now.”
“Of course not, silly. But not for lack of trying.”
They grinned at one another, and pure happiness rushed through his body.
Then their daughter squirmed a little, and they both stared at her as she settled back down. Wrapping his free arm around his mate’s waist, Brad took a second to memorize the moment. After all, he stood inside a place signaling possible change for the two most important people in his life. Sure, it was only the beginning. But with Tasha and Mia at his side, he would do whatever it took to protect the people he loved.
