Rachel hadn’t really processed such about the little girl that had the tantrum. She had noticed it and recognized it. Liam’s explanation made sense. She had experienced. ”I was the same when my little sister was born. Just less biting.”
Her eyes went to Elyse again and they had a silent conversation. Elyse seemed to get her in a way that few did. She was also able to pull the small bits of the real Rachel that hid behind the fear all the time. What upset Rachel was that is was still not enough. She was still afraid all the time. It was frustrating.
Liam offered to let her hold Lily and Rachel wanted to. The baby was so adorable. It was easy to see why Nox doted on her. Rachel gave a small nod and started to reach, but brought her hands back quickly before shaking her head. ”I probably shouldn’t,” she said, her voice laced with fear and disappointment. She wanted to, but was scared to. Scared that something would happen.
