at the falling snow. The hot tears wouldn’t stop.

Chase blinked as Sabrina ran out of the room. He stood to follow her, but Alex clapped his hand on

his shoulder. “Let Anna go,” he said in a low voice.

Anna nodded, handing Gerdie to Alex and hurrying after Sabrina.

Chase watched as Anna disappeared into the kitchen. “What happened?”

Alex gave him a wry smile. “I imagine it might have something to do with her.” He nodded

toward the bundle in his arms and sat down. “I saw that look on Anna’s face long ago. You wanted

Anna to talk to her. Let her.”

Chase looked to the hallway one last time, then dropped onto the couch. “I hope she can help.”

“I think if there had been another demi-Immortal in Anna’s life to talk to, it would have helped in

so many ways. That is why I suggested having them meet before the wedding.” He grinned. “You will

be too busy after.”

Chase grimaced. “Why would a child upset Sabrina?”

“Have you talked about the subject?”

Chase shook his head.

“What do you think they told her? She was a sex slave. When a girl is taken, they do something

about any potential pregnancy. Devin did it to Anna.”

Chase’s heart sank. “Can’t she have kids?” Why hadn’t he thought about this before?

“Honestly, I do not know. My father and I were confident about Anna, but she was only half

Immortal. I do not know if Sabrina could have a human child with all the Immortal blood running

through her body. Have you spoken to Richard?”

Chase closed his eyes and shook his head. “It never occurred to me to imagine we wouldn’t have

children.” He stared at the floor. “But would he encourage me to be with her if there was no hope? If

she can’t, then how can I produce an heir?”

“Chase, look at me.” Alex’s voice was solemn.

Chase looked up, his lips pressed together.

“It will work out the way it is meant to. Worrying will do no good, and it will, I suspect, upset

Sabrina.”

Alex was right. He and Sabrina were supposed to be together. Everything else would work itself

out.
