Episode 355: By Any Means Necessary

Xavier sat opposite her and Calvin Baird, holding Avalon’s hand on the loveseat, her cat, Shelby, snuggled in her lap. Ava had yet to utter a word through the story, just sat there with uncertainty raging in her eyes. He wished he could say the same for himself. But he knew without a doubt, he’d made a huge mistake to invite her family in.

Sarette’s father pressured her to dump a non-blueblood and any trace of their relationship - namely their baby, Ava.

Xavier had to find a way. Somehow. Anything. Fast. He couldn’t lose her.
