Chapter 101: Dangerous News
Enzo wrapped his arms around Kiara, relishing the warmth and comfort of her embrace. But his wife's teasing remark left him flustered.
"He…uhh…he's…in his room?" Enzo offered, a sheepish grin on his face. "Maybe he's dreaming about you?"
Kiara's smile widened, mischief dancing in her eyes. "Dreaming, huh? Or maybe you just wanted me to come home early?"
As Enzo floundered for an answer, a familiar voice piped up from behind, interrupting the teasing banter.
"Mama!" Kenneth's voice, still shrill and high with the innocence of an infant, rang out across the hallway. He crawled towards them, his limbs wobbly with each crawling movement, his small hands reaching out towards Kiara.
Kiara's smile softened, her earlier teasing forgotten in the face of her beloved child. She scooped up Kenneth, holding him close to her chest as he cooed happily.
