The Reunion

"My babies!" I scooped up Broderick from the arms of the person carrying him and proceeded to smother his little face in kisses. As was typical for him, he was knocked out. "Thank you so much for bringing them. I can't tell you how relieved I am." 

"It's the least we could do." Jean-Louis handed Castille to Jason, who propped her up on his free side and kissed her head. A woman stepped forward with Princeton in her arms. She was short and slim, with very dark skin and warm eyes. "This is Emilia Surez, she'll be your nanny full-time." 

"Nice to meet you." We shook hands, and I took Marquise from Jason so he could also shake hands with her. 

"Thank you for agreeing to work with us," Jason said, voice thick with emotion as he smoothed a hand over Princeton's head. 

"It's my pleasure," Emilia said in a very thick French accent. "I'm honoured to work with a member of house Dervaux."
