"If Nikko is free, please inform him that we have another baby girl."
Micah nods, leaving. I look at Adrianna. Tears are streaming down her face.
"Would you like to see her?"
She nods, and I approach her. I tilt my arms, raising the little girl's head just enough for her to be seen from her blanket cocoon. She has gorgeous hazel eyes.
Footsteps come down the stairs.
"He said that he'll have a buyer lined up first thing in the morning."
"What does he want with her for the time being?"
"He said take her upstairs. I'll send the mother back to her room."

I don't argue. I would love to care for her, even if it's for one night and she'll be gone by morning.
