CHAPTER 257

KATYA POV

Elena smiled wider when she saw the way I stiffened, like she'd already learned something important about me without needing it explained. "I would hug you properly," she said, resting a hand over her stomach with a soft laugh, "but my little one has decided my personal space no longer belongs to me."

Her voice was gentle. Musical in a way that felt earned, not practiced. "That's okay," I said quickly, then hesitated. "I mean—thank you."

She laughed again, quieter this time. "You don't need to thank me for wanting to hug you, cara."

Chiara groaned dramatically beside me. "See? I told you. She hugs everyone. I'm offended you didn't try anyway."

Elena shot her a look. "You're offended by breathing."

"That's because I do it too much," Chiara shot back easily, then turned to me, eyes bright. "Give it time. She'll hug you whether you're ready or not."
