Xade's pov Avery cling tolike I was her lifeline, her labored breathing makinggrow restless by the second. " Hang in there baby," I whispered, kissing her forehead. Her skin felt hot under the touch of my lips.
She nods, as if to reassurethat she got this. I can't help but fall more in love with her. Even in pain, she still wants to soothe me.
"Dad said to place her in cold water to see if the fever would tone down but make sure the water doesn't touch her mark so it won't cause an infection," Xaden said after his smokey eyes vanished and replaces with his normal usual ones.
I nod, swallowing hard. " Fill the tub with cold water." I told him. He makes a move to head to the bathroom and I question him. " Susan?" He looked over his shoulder at me.and nod. "Henry told the truth.” he said and disappeared in the bathroom.

As Xaden move to prepare the bath, I gently eased off the bed with Avery in my arms, cradling her to my chest. Her face scrunches up at the sudden movement and a soft whimper escapes her throat.
Sorry baby," I said softly and pressed a gentle kiss on her head and holding her tenderly in my arms as I make my way to the bathroom where Xaden was just closing the tap.
On a scale of one to ten, how mad is dad at me?" I questioned as I move way over here." I nod, not really caring if he argues withabout keeping this from him. Not when he had his own secrets he hid from us and not when Avery and our baby was my top priority.
"I'll leave you to it and be outside if you need me." Xaden said softly, walking up toand givinga gentle squeeze on my shoulder.
"She's strong, don't worry." he reassured, his worried lines deepening as he peer down at Avery's face.
I nod because he was right, my girl was strong. He leaves the room, closing the door behind him softly to give us privacy.
I stepped into the bath carefully, holding her tight toas the cold chill of the water shocked my skin. I didn't want her to go through this alone so I'd do it too. We both had our clothes on and I saw no point in ridding us of our clothes now.
Slowly I sat in the water, holding my breath as I descend. The water was freezing, practically ice. The second the cold water touched her skin, Avery gasped, tensing and then tremble slightly. My throat tightens and I kissed her burning forehead.
Shhh, it's okay baby," I cooed, descending more until we were nearly submerged but making sure to keep the water level remained below her neck and away from the mark. I let her rest her back on my chest, holding her tenderly as her tremors start to subside.

I reach forward to brush sof her head away from her forehead and watch her face pain. feel powerless Fight it baby," I begged, the tears straying from my eyes and landing on her closed lids. Win this for me, for us." Her eyes flutter, indicating that she is fighting to open them. I brushed my thumb over her cheekbone, my hand trembling. Her eyes flickered, tired and weary but they were still warm.
I promised didn't I?" she gasped, clutching my hand that was on her stomach, rubbing soothing circles on her skin. I'm going to win," she said shakily, her eyelids growing heavy. "You can bet on it Mr. Archer."
My heart warmed, finding it into smile. I just couldn't remain sad m when Avery was around me. You better Mrs. Archer, we have a human wedding to plan and a mini you to welcinto this world."
