Twenty minutes later they had left Cailean’s and walked to Fidelia and Bears’s house. They lived a short distance from the livery, beside Warren and Helen’s home. Ewan had his arm around Jessamine’s back as they waited for Fidelia to answer their soft knock. He kissed Jessie’s head as she snuggled into his side.

“Oh, you’re here,” Fidelia said with a bright smile as she ushered them inside. “Baby fell asleep after eating again, and I just finished up washing her dirty clothes.”

“You didn’t have to do that, Dee,” Jessamine protested.

Fidelia shrugged. “I was doing my own wash. A little more didn’t hurt me.” She reached a hand out as her daughter, Mildred, raced toward them. “Millie!” she said in a loud whisper. “Don’t wake the baby.”

Mildred stifled a giggle and wrapped her arms around Jessamine and then Ewan. “We have two babies in the house for a little while! Mama said she’s going to be my cousin.”

Jessamine smiled and ran a hand over Mildred’s head. “Yes, she is.” She watched in fascination as Ewan gravitated to the basket where the baby slept.

“Our bairn needs a cradle,” he whispered as he knelt beside the basket, his gaze roving over the baby’s downy head covered in a fine layer of black hair. He studied her closed eyelids, her perfect eyelashes, tracing a finger over her head. “So soft,” he murmured before he kissed her forehead. He looked up with a wondrous smile to meet Jessamine’s watery gaze. “What do ye think of Aileana?”

“Aileana?” she asked. “It’s beautiful.”

“Aye, a beautiful name for our beautiful bairn.” He reached out a hand for Jessamine, linking their hands as he kept a palm over their baby’s head. “I ken we’ll be exhausted for years to come, an’ we willna have a day we are no’ worried about her.” He grinned at his wife. “But I would no’ want it any other way.”

Jessamine sank to her knees beside him and buried her face in the crook of his neck. “Me neither.”
