before she ended up in emmaโs arms, she drew in a slow, steady breath, as though all the tension sheโd been carrying finally slipped away at once. her fingers loosened around her coat, letting it fall open and reveal the small โ yet unmistakable โ bump beneath.

Emma took a tissue and look at the photo of her with Ivar when he was just a kid. Poor little boy who almost had the worst life experience ever. And now look at him โ heโs rich, powerful and soon will become a father.
What else the mother can ask her son for to be happy?

แ
when she leaned into emmaโs embrace, warmth and joy bloomed in her chest, rich and overwhelming.
ใ thank you so much... you have no idea how much your words mean to meโฆ to us.ใ
her arms tightened gently as she smiled.
&&.
แ
แ
just as nervous, she waited for emmaโs reaction, unsure of what to do next. she couldnโt see her face, and for once even her shadows seemed to share her panic.
then emma spoke โ and nyx let out a warm, breathy laugh, her fingers tightening gently
&&.
แ
A nervous smile appeared on Emmaโs face as she finished her glass of wine. Not so long ago her daughter became a mother and now itโs her son is becoming the father.
โThatโs. . .tha. .thatโ oh my god. . .โ
Tears of happiness started falling down from her eyes. The White

แ
a shy smile touched her lips as her gaze dropped, warmth and nerves mingling in her expression.
ใ ivar and iโ... weโre going to be parents. iโm pregnant. ใ
แ
แ
with a soft, steadying sigh, nyx turned toward emmaโs familiar presence. her hand reached out, finding the white queenโs, fingers curling gently as she gave it a reassuring squeeze.
ใ i felt you should hear it from me. ivar wanted to wait a little longer, butโฆ ใ
&&.
แ
โAh, thank you, my dear - give me a moment.โ
With a smile Emma pours some wine for her and Nox before taking a sit on the couch.
โAlright, letโs see what you have for me to say.โ
แ
ใ oh, please, emma. i know you enough to be certain you look absolutely stunning. ใ
a soft chuckle slipped from her lips as she fidgeted with the sleeve of her sweater.
ใ there's something i'd like to tell you. could you sit here with me? ใ
แ
โIvar seems very happy and well these days. I can tell itโs all you.โ
Softly smiles as she got two glasses for herself and for her friend.
โI wish I knew what you will get here so I could at least make myself look good.โ
แ
as she drifted toward the couch, settling in and leaning back against the pillows with easy comfort.
ใ how about you? i wish i could see you right nowโฆ i know you must look gorgeous, as always. ใ
แ
แ
returning the warmth of the greeting, she brushed a hand lightly along emmaโs back before handing her the bottle, its neck adorned with a neat, sweet bow.
ใ iโve been fine โ doing my best to take good care of ivar. ใ
a soft smile followed
&&.
แ
โOh how sweet of you, darling. Thank you.
Come in, feel yourself like home.โ
Greetings her with a hug and kiss on the cheek. Emma was truly happy to see Nox once again. It has been a long time since their last visit.
โSo how are you? I didnโt see you for a while.โ
แ
sheโd be more than happy to join her โ especially since she came bearing very good news.
as soon as she stepped into the mansion, her gaze swept the room, searching for emmaโs familiar figure.
ใ emma? i've brought your favorite wine! ใ
แ
A little visit?
Oh no, itโs not gonna work that way. Let her prepare everything. Good food, expensive drinks.
Such a meeting canโt be just a little visit.
แ
it had been such a long day. she leaned her head against @Son0fFrost's shoulder, letting a soft sigh escape her lips. one hand rested on her bump, tracing gentle, soothing circles.
ใ home, at last... ใ
