Husband With Benefits-Chapter 803: Heavenly

"She’s too pretty. This is going to be a problem," Cai muttered, staring down at the tiny baby girl in the crib with a worried frown.

Dora laughed softly, nudging him. "Only you would think having a beautiful baby girl is a problem, Cai. Most people would be overjoyed."

"Uh huh, but I’m telling you, it’s going to be a problem," he insisted, nodding towards the sleeping baby. "Just look at poor Ines. She’s the next oldest, and already Uncle Seb is constantly polishing his rifle, preparing for the ’future’ like he’s expecting suitors to swarm the place any minute. He’s even teaching her how to use it!"

Dora smirked, leaning back in her chair. "Well, whichever poor guy falls for Ines won’t know what hit him until he’s been shot, strung up, and left to dry in the sun. At least she’ll know how to defend herself."

Cai chuckled, though his eyes still lingered on the baby, his expression a mix of adoration and concern. he really wanted to hold her but she was too tiny. And she looked like him which made her ever more adorable. "True, but Uncle Seb isn’t the worst of it. At least he’s just threatening to defend Ines. You’ve got Ian and Gabe practically planning to put their girls under house arrest until they’re thirty. Can you imagine?"

Dora shook her head, laughing. "They can puff and bluster all they want, but let’s be real—the Frostie women will never allow it. Between them teaching the girls to outsmart and outfight the boys, there’s not much those two can do. The girls will probably beat the boys to a pulp before they even think about dating."

"Exactly," Cai said, grinning now. "The poor guys won’t stand a chance. They’ll be too scared to even look at them funny." He leaned over the crib again, his grin softening into something more tender. "But this one... she’s going to cause some serious heartbreak one day. I can already see it. But don’t worry. You’ll have an army of brothers to dote on you!"

Dora rolled her eyes but smiled, nonetheless. "An army is right. With you starting the next generation of Frost, and Vinny and Ines already stepping into their teens, it’s only a matter of time before the younger ones join in wreaking havoc. Now, the youngest of the Frost clan has arrived." She glanced at the baby, her light brown tufts of hair and bright, sparkling eyes. "And she’s already going to have you wrapped around her tiny finger, isn’t she?"

Cai didn’t even bother denying it, his expression softening as the baby’s little hand twitched in her sleep. "Yeah," he admitted quietly, reaching out again and gently trying to get her tiny fingers to uncurl and grasp his finger. "She’s already got me. There’s no going back."

Dora raised an eyebrow, clearly amused by how serious he looked. She remembered he used to have the same look when he was practising suturing. "So, Mr. Overprotective Big Brother," she teased, crossing her arms and leaning toward him, "any thoughts on what they should name this little heartbreaker?"

Cai scratched the back of his neck, glancing at the baby with a thoughtful expression. "Well, I was thinking... maybe Lily?"

Dora gave him a look, her eyebrows shooting up as she crossed her arms. "Lily? Really? That’s what you’ve come up with?"

He shrugged, looking slightly guilty. "What? It’s a beautiful name! Sweet, simple, kinda perfect for her, don’t you think? She is like a flower so..."

Dora shot him a pitying look that had him shrinking his neck and focusing on holding the little one. After all, she knew that Lily had ditched him and thrown him away without giving him a reason. But he still thought it was a pretty name... even if it was not meant for this little angel here.

"Okay! Get the camera ready." Cai said as he leant forward, carefully picking up the little girl.

’You have to pay for picture privileges." A voice sounded from the door as Demetri and Nora returned from having Nora checked post op. Cai smiled and held the baby close to him, loving how light and warm she was in his arms," Hey! I am her older brother! I have all the rights. As for paying... Well, I can pledge my fealty to protect her whenever needed."

Nora grinned and walked back to the bed, carefully caressing her baby’s head before sitting down," That is good enough! She’s going to need a capable big brother. So, have you guys come up with name suggestions?"

"You really haven’t come up with names?" Cai asked in amusement. It seemed impossible that these two had not already agreed on names. But, looking back, he could guess why.. The number of times they’d lost a little one even before it was born...

Cai looked down at the baby, who was beginning to stir. Her tiny eyes fluttered open for the first time, and his heart melted completely. "Well," he said softly, still mesmerized by her wide-eyed gaze, "I think I have a suggestion."

Dora nudged him with her foot, clearly warning him not to suggest his ex-girlfriend’s name. But Cai ignored her, his attention fully on the baby. With a small smile, he gently placed the baby in Nora’s arms.

"What do you think of the name Ourania1?" Cai asked, watching as Demetri’s eyes widened slightly. "It means ’heavenly.’ And I think it suits her perfectly."

Dora stared at Cai while Demetri and Nora exchanged a look as they stared at the little one until Nora smiled softly, clearly pleased with the suggestion. "I like it. Ourania Frost... sounds like a name destined for greatness."

As Demetri and Nora cooed over their little girl, Dora dragged Cai out of the room as she shot him a look. Thankfully, he had not really suggested the name Lily. Or she would have been forced to cast him out. But that one moment had shown her something. He was not over Lily... freewebnøvel.com
