"It's a boy." said Mary and handed me the baby. "He's beautiful." I replied but tears ran down my cheeks. "The Turks will take him when he's old enough." she said. "I have to find a place where he is safe." I replied and she nodded.

Adam lives...
A young couple was found murdered last night in their house. Their throat was slit and their bodies were drained of blood. Their one-year daughter Raven has been placed in an orphanage.
The bathroom door opened and I hid the newspaper behind my back. "Something wrong?" asked Tommy. "No!" I said. "What are you hiding behind your back?" he asked. "Nothing." I lied. "Adam Vlad Lucian Tepes, show me." said Tommy, he says only my full name when he's angry or upset. I handed him the newspaper and his eyes said more than a thousand words.
"You said you would never do it." shouted Tommy. "It wasn't me, I swear, I was beside when you woke up." I said. "You killed her parents and now she lives in an orphanage." replied Tommy. "She'll find a new family." I said. "I saved her in my dream, she needs me." replied Tommy. "We already have three children at home." I said. "So you're just going to let this poor little girl live in an orphanage rest of her life, what if a bad family take care of her?" he asked. "Do what feels best." I mumbled and he ran out.

Tommy's: POV
I arrived to the orphanage and knocked at the door. A woman opened and looked at me. "My name is Tommy Ratliff and I would like to adopt a child." I said, I used my old surname for not pulling me suspicions. "Of course." she replied and we went to a room.
My eyes fixed on the girl with steel blue eyes and she was wearing a pink one piece. "I would like to adopt her." I said. "Poor thing, she lost her parents last night." replied the woman sadly. "I know, I heard the news." I said. Elizabeth lifted up her and put her gently down in my arms.

(This is Raven)
After I signed the paper she was now my daughter. She touched my face and she remembered me from my nightmare. "You're safe now, I don't let anyone hurt you." I said and kissed her forehead.
Then I opened my phone and called Adam. "We fly home tomorrow, and if you so much as touch my daughter, I will file for divorce." I said threatening and hung up.
When we got back to the hotel, I got my own room. I was still mad at Adam. Then she began to cry and I comforted her. "You miss your parents?" I asked and she nodded. "They loved you so much and they will always watch over you." I said. "Daddy!" replied Raven. "I'll take care of you, you're safe with me." I said and she smiled.
Adam did not killed Raven's parents, it's just Tommy who thinks he did it. Raven is so cute and Tommy will be an wonderful father to her💕 I hope you liked this chapter.
