Riley's POV

I wake up from a deep sleep and look over and see Marc asleep with our little girl asleep on his chest, his hands wrapped around her protectively. I smile and think to myself that I couldn't love this man any more than I do. This is our family and I couldn't be any more happy. His eyes soon open and he looks at me.

"Hello, princess. How are you feeling?"

"Rested now. How are you?"

"I couldn't be any better. I have everything I ever wanted right here. You and my little farfalla."

"You look good with her."

"I do? I'm afraid I might break her."

"You are doing fine."

"Are you up to visitors? I know everyone will want to come see her."

"Sure, let them come."

He calls everyone to say it's okay to come visit and within the hour everyone has shown up.

"Oh, let me see my granddaughter." Lucia squeals as she comes in the room with outstretched arms, scooping our girl out of Marc's arms.

"She is absolutely beautiful." Angelo says as he comes over and pears over her.

"Thank god she takes after her mom, not that ugly mug over there." Alex says as he comes over to hug Marc and I.

"Congratulations." Damian says as he walks in with Cas.

"Could I hold her?" Lucia walks over and places her in Cas' arms.

"Look Armani, isn't she pretty?" Damian walks over with his son and Armani reaches over and gently places his hand to her cheek and smiles. "He likes her already. I think she already has a bodyguard." He chuckles as he walks away and Armani reaches back and cries.

"I don't think he wants to leave her." Alex laughs.

"So, what is her name?" Angelo asks.

"Do you want to tell them, babe?" I ask.

"Okay. Everyone, meet Tiffany Blue Ramano." He says proudly.

"That's so pretty." Cas says.

"I like it." added Lucia.

"With a name like that she is going to be spoiled." Alex says with a laugh. I know he is not lying, and he will be the one to do it.

"The boys are going to be knocking down your door." Damian quips.

"They will bet my gun. She is not dating till she's thirty."

I can see the protective glare in his eyes when he hears Damian make that comment.

"Babe, you can't stop her from dating. They always find a way."

"I can make sure they know who her father is."

Everyone laughs as Marc groans. That little girl has him wrapped around her finger already. She will be a daddy's girl and no one can stop that. Just then I hear her cry and my breast start to leak.

"Oh, I think little blue is hungry. Here you go momma. Let's all give them their privacy. We will see you all tomorrow." Cas says as she leads everyone out.

"Goodbye guys. Thank you for coming."

They all say their goodbyes as they head out the door. I pull my gown down and place her at my breast. She immediately latches on and begins to nurse.

"Hmhm. Just like her daddy. Always hungry."

He walks over and places a kiss to her head and then kisses me.

"Farfalla, those are on loan to you. You will have to give them back someday." He says with a smile as he sits next to me and watches her.

"Did you ever think this would be where you wanted to be?"

"Never in a million years. I told you I never thought about any of this before I met you and now I wouldn't trade it for the world. I love you and Tiffany with all my heart."

"I love you too."

Five years later.

"Tiffany, where are you two going?" I ask as I see her and Armani start to run outside.

"We are just going outside, momma. Come on, Armani." She drags him by the hand out the door.

"Right behind you, Blue."

"Don't interfere with the caterers. And don't get dirty! Your other guest will be here soon."

"Yes, momma!"

She runs outside, hand in hand with Armani. Those two are trouble. They are like two peas in a pod. They never go anywhere without the other.

"Those two are trouble with a capital t."

"I know, but he is already protective of her. I will have to set him straight when he gets older." I laugh as he comes up behind me and rubs my swollen belly. "How are you doing, my love?"

"I am fine today. Our boy might just be a soccer player one day."

"I can tell. He is always active and even my voice doesn't settle him most times. I guess he will follow in his dad's footsteps someday."

"I don't know if I like him following in your fighting footsteps."

"That will be up to him, princess. He will have that choice."

"So is everything set up for the party?" Cas asks as she comes in cradling her baby girl. Yes, she just had a little girl almost a month ago. This pregnancy was hard on her and we almost lost her when she was giving birth. They had decided that two were it for them, because Damian didn't want to risk her gain. He got himself fixed last week and has been grumpy for the last several days.

"How is Damian doing?" I ask.

"He's much better today and is out back with the kids. He is like a big kid himself."

We all walk outside as they are finishing the decorations. After about another hour the gusts start to arrive to celebrate Tiffany's fifth birthday. She is growing up too quick. She has been such a good little girl. Her and Armani have been inseparable since day one. I sit and watch the activities of the day as I rub my belly. This is something that I never thought I could have. I have a thriving business, great friends, a loving husband and a family. I wouldn't change it for the world and I will protect it with everything I have.
