Chapter 123

Demetri’s POV

“No, Day. I think Cole having her for the night again will help him to relax. He can also address any cramping if she gets any during the night. She has pre-K in the morning, so I’ll stop in and get her back to her room for that.”

I nod my head as Lilly explains her decision, and fortunately, Lucas keeps his mouth shut as Damian takes Madilyn from me. I sit on the bed, taking a deep, calming breath as Cole tries to back away. I kick my shoes off before lifting my feet up onto the bed.

“Stay still, Cole. I’m going to lie with you like I did when we did the IV.”

He whimpers softly but makes no further attempts to move. I lay on my side, making myself comfortable, edging myself closer to his trembling body.
