"Adam, my love, I'll be fine," Sofia said, her voice warm and teasing as she glanced up at him. "There are more than enough maids in this mansion to keep me company. Why do you worry so much about me, about us?" She tried to mask her amusement, but the sparkle in her eyes betrayed her.
Ever since Adam had learned the gender of their baby, he had found excuse after excuse to stay home, hovering around her like a shadow, like a fortress she never asked for but secretly adored. He rarely left for the office anymore, his phone buzzing with unanswered calls while he chose to stay by her side.
Adam reached for her hand, pressing it gently against his chest. "I just want to spend the day and the night with you," he murmured, his voice soft with devotion. The tenderness in his tone sent shivers of warmth through her, making her heart flutter the way it had the very first time he confessed his feelings.
