In Edward Lee's arms was a bundle of lavender blankets. He moved the blankets so he could see her face and a smile grew on his face. He was hungry, a vampire's birth had a lot of blood but the mate wasn't allowed the smallest lick, but his eyes changed from black to gold. He was filled with such a pride. Ed knew that Lilith was in the birthing stages, he'd probably have another, but who he held in his arms was his first daughter.
He lightly dragged his claw over her brow. "You look so much like a lady but so much like a child," he cooed to his daughter. She grabbed onto the finger. He giggled and nuzzled her stomach. "A little devil when you hold me close." She looked up to her father and smiled. "A little angel when you smile."
Adam came into the room and smiled. "She's beautiful, man," said Adam leaning against the door to Jerry's study. "Lilith told me to tell you to pay attention to the color of her eyes when she first opens them. It'll tell you how she feels about you."
"Baby blue, their baby blue," said Ed.
"The innocent color, according to Jerry that means she knows who you are and she depends on you," said Adam, who glanced at the baby. "Her eyes match today's sky. You know Jerry says she's like a breath of Spring air."
"Dude? Is it nuts that I don't want another man to hold her...ever?" asked Ed. Adam cocked his head. Did Ed mean Adam. "She brought color to my life, color that my eyes would have never touched. I know that I can love someone so much that I am willing to die for them. I love Lilith a lot, I gave up being human for her but I think I love her even more..."
'Ed, that is so sweet,' said Lilith's voice inside of Ed's head. 'Why don't you name her? I'll name our next child.'
"I think I love you even more Pina Leann Lee," cooed Ed as he kissed her head.
'You may want to rethink that, son. Your wife just had another little girl. Pina has a sister, Laura Claire Lee,' said Jerry's voice.
Ed flicked away a tear and Adam crossed his arms and smiled.
