Chapter 8

A barely audible rustle.
A small awakening wimper.
Rhade was up and lifting the child from the crib as quietly as he could, he had been training himself to hear her early waking movements.
Looking down at his infant daughter cradled in his arms he couldn't help but feel anything but pride and sheer joy at the sight of his first child.
His little girl.
The day she was born had been one of the best days of his life.
It was amazing to think that he and Beka had created something so small and so perfect together.
Turning his attention back to the stirring child, Rhade hoped that it was just an attention wake up call and that she'd go back to sleep if he held her. If she needed feeding then she'd start crying at any moment and Beka would need to be woken up.
Cassandra Rhade, out of Rebeka by Telemachus wasn't going to make it easy on her father as she let out a loud cry.
She was hungry.
And she was going to be fed.
Kissing her forehead, he sat back on the bed and shook Beka's shoulder gently.

"Beka?"

"Mmmm..."

Rhade winced as Cassandra's crying went up a notch.

"Mmmmm...I'm coming..."

"I think she's hungry."

Beka rolled onto her back and groaned, "Just latch her on..."

Rhade smiled, "Beka..."

"MMmmm...I'm up. I am, really."

She stretched and rubbed her eyes. Sitting up, she leaned on Rhade and took her daughter from him.
Once they were settled, Cassandra latched happily onto her mother.

"I can't wait till she's on the bottle. You can feed her while I sleep."

"She's almost old enough."

"What's the point of men having nipples?"

"Excuse me?"

"What's the point of having them if you can't feed your young?"

Rhade quirked his eyebrows and smiled.
Only his wife...
