“All of our children have been born in this boat. It’s a sacred and protected space. Besides, your body’ll let you know when it’s time for hatchin’. You’ll be over here in plenty of time, I promise.”
“I can’t wait till they’re here,” Oscar said. He took Adele’s hand, and Xavier began to massage her shoulders.
“I can’t, either,” Adele said. “And somehow, this is the most unbelievable thing that has happened to me this spring.”
“But you’re happy, right?” Xavier asked.
Adele grinned. “Of course I am. I don’t think I’ve ever been happier than right in this moment.”
“You just wait till they’re hatched, then,” Oscar said. “If you’re happy now, imagine what it’ll be like when they’re actually here.”
Adele couldn’t help but laugh with joy. Oscar was right. The realization that soon she was going to be a mother was exhilarating.
She looked out the window and let her gaze focus on the clear bayou day. She had a beautiful home, caring mates, and soon she’d have children. She’d never realized that life could be perfect, but now she knew that happy endings really did exist.
THE END
