Antonio's POV
I dismissed Jenna.
I stretched my arms.
I was frazzled. It's 4 days and within those days I've been busier than weeks of meetings combined.
Tomorrow I'll take her out for ice cream then just casually bring it up. I got out of my office and I saw Ellie playing with her toys.
I don't know how I was feeling.
I suddenly felt more affection towards her.
I'm not sure if it's because she is my blood but knowing that she has my blood made me joyous.
After watching her play she noticed and like always she ran to me.
I swooped her into my arms.
"You were being a good girl right?" I inquired she nodded.
"Daddy I didn't mean to eavesdrop" she begins to say.
I looked at her.
Wait if she heard.
She isn't mad is she?
Eliana doesn't seem mad.
I waited to let her continue.
"I had a dream." she says.
Which caught my attention.
"I was surrounded by cries. It was white. And I saw this person in a black suit" she explains.
That must be Florence.
"I was planning on telling you" I softly said.
"So- so you're my real daddy" she stammers.
I smiled warmly at her.
"Yes I am, you aren't mad?" I asked.
She shook her head.
"I'm happy to hear that" I pulled her head in and I gave her a kiss.
"I never looked like my mama or even former father" she says.
She was intently looking at me.
I studied her face.
She had my hair colour and facial features.
"Baby I would've taken you in. but your real mama didn't let me know" I simplified.
She was now resting her head on my chest.
I stroked her hair.
"I forgive you" she says while contently laying on my chest.

I saw Jenna make a aww face at me.
For the first time I felt happiness.
It didn't matter how much money I had coming but just to know Ellie is my pride and joy filled my happiness bucket.
It satisfied me.
"I'm getting the camera" I heard Jenna say and she took a picture.
I should get it framed then.
Soon afterwards I heard soft breathing.
I held her up and she was asleep.
"Antonio you told me that you don't want to be like your father. Well look at you. You've become your own person" Jenna states.
"I guess, I had to face my fear" I said I was still holding Ellie.
"However I should tell her about listening in on people" I said grabbing myself a mug of coffee.
"I think even with our past. And differences, we came out alright" she laughs a little.
I chuckled.
"Indeed we did" I replied.
"Can I hold her now?" Jenna asked.
I looked at Jenna.
I really didn't want to hand her over but I didn't want to be a possessive parent.
"Of course" I said and I gently placed Ellie in her grasp.
I went back to fix my coffee.
I have to adopt her now.
As her birth parent I can just easily reverse the custody.
I'll just let Mat take care of it.
Now that is off my chest.
I had been worrying about how she would react.
Eliana handled it nicely.
I like that name for her.
I was a father.
I've been a parent for the past 5 years.
I hadn't realize if I didn't go out that day.
I wouldn't of met with my biological daughter.
I picked up my phone and rung Cortez.

8 411Quantum Worlds (A LitRPG dark fantasy)
Find the missing VIP in an illegal game world. Kill the monsters. Return home for the paycheck. Decorated Marine commander, Damon Williams, never thought his latest mission would take place in a full-immersion world fighting monsters… but when a high-value VIP disappears after being stealthily transported to a banned MMORPG, he's their only hope. Damon must lead a group of rescuers into an unforgiving world infested with terrifying monsters and worse. Pain is real. Death is permanent. He and his crew must adapt quickly, trust each other, and fight to survive. And if all that's not bad enough, they'll also have to race against time to avoid the realm’s disintegration and mutation effects. Quantum Worlds features race and class designations, unique creatures, dungeon crawling, level progression and Easter eggs that reference video games and pop culture. This a dark fantasy, but it also has sprinklings of humor throughout. It is a multi-cast, multi-pov story. In many ways, it is a melding of one of my favorite novels, “The Stand”, with my favourite genre, LitRPG. I don’t espouse to be anywhere near Stephen King, but I would like to think that I have succeeded in many areas here (you’ll be the judge of that). So, this thriller-style story has a lot of build-up and lots of drama. When it hits the 100-page mark, it starts to take off with some intense action and fight scenes (although there are battles long before that). Nothing comes easy for this group of rescuers. And the dangers are very real. This saga is already over 100 chapters with more to come. I hope you enjoy it and look forward to your reviews, comments, and feedback. Thanks. Chapters are uploaded every day at noon ET. Please do not repost this work anywhere without my written permission. Quantum Worlds is a participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge.
