That man can't hurt you now. You're home. Do you wantto call your father?" "Maximus?" "No, should I call Marcus?" "No, Emma, no. He'd worry and end up blaming Maximus..." "All right, sweetheart. I'll make you stea to calm you down. Cwithto the kitchen. I'm not leaving you alone." As they headed to the kitchen, Laura walked out and immediately noticed how pale Serenity looked.

This baby keeps growing, and now at three months, it's demanding even more food." Serenity forced a smile, trying to hide her fear. The last thing she wanted was to worry Laura.
