“For what?” she returned in the same low whisper.
“Everything. Elissa, you’ve given me everything.”
She flashed another smile. “Everything you never knew you wanted.”
“Needed, lass. Needed. You and Kenna are everything I never knew I needed. When I think of the turns I wasted—”
Elissa rested her fingertip against his lips. “Nay, love. Not wasted. You were waiting for me.”
Alasdair grinned and kissed her. “I guess so.”
“I know so.”
Kenna fussed and their gazes locked.
“She’s just hungry.” She gave him the baby and opened the ties at the neck of the fresh sleeping gown the headwomen had dressed her in.
Kenna wailed, and the thick drapes rustled with her magic.
He rocked her, but his daughter wouldn’t be comforted until Elissa took her back, nestling her close to her bared flesh.
Alasdair watched with fascination as their daughter settled at her breast and latched on. Emotion caught in his throat all over and leaned down, kissing her tiny forehead. Then he slid his arm around Elissa and held her as she nursed their daughter.
His heart was full to bursting, like it would be for the rest of his life.
