Kisses and Angels Chapter 3

A/N: Starting with this chapter the story goes AU.

Colonel Kira Nerys looked at the crib next to her bed. In the crib her two month old baby girl was sleeping soundly and Kira loved watching her sleep. She couldn't belive that Marielle (her daughter) would grow up with out her father. Even if it was Dukat. The door chime chimed pulling her out of her thoughts. Still looking at the infant Kira said, "Come."

A person came in the room and sat down on the bed next to Nerys. Nerys looked at figure and did a double take. "Dukat!" she exclaimed.

"I was wondering if you were ever going to acknowledge my presence," he said.

Kira looked him in the eye and kissed him. Dukat smiled. He had not excpected her to kiss him after going insane and missing their daughter's birth (which he was told about while in psychiatric ward). Dukat kissed her back gently. They only pulled apart because Marielle had woken up and started crying. Nerys laughed. "She's probably hungry."

"Is she bottle fed?" asked Dukat.

"Yes."

"May I feed her?"

Nerys nodded and went to get the bottle. Dukat picked up the small infant. Well she really wasn't that small but oh well. Kira came back shortly and smiled when she saw Dukat holding their daughter. "She looks a lot like you," said Kira.

"No, she looks my mother," Dukat said back.

"Have thought about telling your family about Marielle?"

"Why? My mother would just see her as more dishonor."

"What if you were married?" asked Kira while giving him the bottle. Dukat put the bottle in Marielle's mouth before answering.

"She would be okay with her then, but I'm not married."

"You could be in the next forty- eight hours. If you are willing to go through a Bajoran wedding."

Dukat looked up at her. Had Colonel Kira Nerys, the woman who had hated him years and attempted to kill him several times, just asked him, Gul Dukat; Former Prefect of Bajor, to marry her.

"I accept," he said kissing her lightly.
