Chapter 399 - Naming...

Brina was overwhelmed when she saw her mother walking to her. 

She still remembers her mother's lifeless condition a few days back. Seeing her in normal condition made her very emotional. 

"Mum" Brina choked as soon as her mother reached out. 

"Honey..." her mother was equally emotional as they hugged each other lightly. As the baby is sleeping in Brina's arms, they are cautious. 

Brina could no longer control herself and she sobbed in her mother's arms. 

Jenna didn't say anything much but continued to comfort her daughter. She knows if she starts talking, she will soon be crying very badly, disturbing the just born granddaughter. 

"I missed you, mom" Brina sobbed. "I missed hugging you like this whenever I felt low. Over these years, there is no single day I didn't miss your warmth" she added. 

"I know...I know, dear. I am sorry you had to go through all this all alone" her mother said, pursing her lips. Her husband told her about everything that happened when she was in a coma. 

Her daughter has suffered. 

"I had Harry but I still missed you all, mom. At the start, it was too difficult for me and I couldn't handle the loss. If it was not for Louis and Harry, I really-" she was cut off in the middle when her mother swiftly diverted the topic. 

They just met and she didn't want her exhausted daughter to get emotional and sad. Today is a happy day… the day they welcomed the new life into their lives. 

"Leave about it dear. Let bygones be bygones. It's all in the past" Jenna said, caressing her daughter's silver platinum, long hair. 

"Tell me, what name have you decided for my little granddaughter?" she excitedly asked. 

This, of course, distracted Brina from recalling her unpleasant past. 

She giggled. "I am not sure about her first name. I will let Louis decide our daughter's name… he was very excited and thrilled, especially to name his daughter" she said. 

"As for her middle name, I want to name her after his biological mother," Brina smiled. 

Meanwhile, Jenna could only laugh delightly. Rhea was her best friend…

She will be very happy if they name her after her best friend. 

"You both are truly something" Jenna chuckled. 

"He wants to name her after your sister in law. Whereas, you on other hand, want to name her after his mother" she said. 

Brina giggled. "It seems we both are having similar thoughts again" 

"Well, we will give you, the new parents one night to decide the names" her mother said. 

"That would be more than enough because, I guess, Louis already has tons of names in his head" Brina laughed. 

The mother daughter duo continued to chat for over an hour. Later, everyone dispersed for the night. 

They are yet to make the public announcement about the birth of the first heir of the next generation. 

It is very possible that this little princess here could ascend the throne because she is the first of the next generation. However, in future, it would be left for her to decide what she wants...

….

At night…

Brina was snuggled in Louis's arms as they both continued looking at their sleeping daughter. 

They couldn't take their eyes off from their child. For the whole day, their attention was on their baby and they couldn't spend much of their time together. 

And, their tacit agreement is to dedicate their night to each other, irrespective of how busy or distracted they are…

"We have to decide two names, remember" Louis asked as he kissed her hair, holding her in his arms. 

"Hmm. I do" Brina ecstatically answered, closing her eyes as Louis continued peppering kisses on her neck. 

"And, the names should start with L and E" she added. 

Louis…. Edward. 

Leo….. Ethan. 

Luna….Eliina. 

Liam…..Edgar. 

L & E corporations. 

"Right," Louis said, kissing her lips. 

"I thought Lillian for L. After your sister in law" he added. 

After thinking a while, he thought that there is no other way that could honour her sister in law's sacrifice more than naming their own child after her. 

It is a symbol that their daughter's life is a fruit of her sacrifice. 

Meanwhile, hearing this from Louis himself, it greatly shook Brina. Her eyes turned misty and her heart warmed up. 

"Are you sure?" Brina asked. 

Louis looked into her eyes, "There is nothing I could be more sure about" he said. 

Brina nodded her head and smiled brightly. 

"And, mom told me that you want my mother's name as a middle name for our daughter" Louis asked. 

"Uh huh. If it wasn't for her, I wouldn't have got a wonderful man like you as my husband" Brina said, winking at Louis with a beautiful smile on her face. 

Louis chuckled and leaned close, "Do you know how much I want to eat you up now?" he asked, his voice deep and seducing. 

"Unfortunately, you can't," Brina laughed. 

"But consider yourself warned," Louis whispered, now a hint of devilishness in his hoarse voice. 

"I will" Brina chuckled, her voice sultry. 

"Now back to naming our daughter" she quickly diverted the topic because of the heat that is developing between them. 

Otherwise, Louis has to take a cold shower. 

….

The next morning...

Everyone was up for breakfast, both Brina and Louis's family. 

They have not yet announced the birth and have decided to reveal it at the same time in both the Kingdoms. 

"Slept well?" Jenna asked her daughter as soon as they entered. Their baby is sleeping peacefully after having her full 'meal'. 

"Yep. She didn't cry at all," Brina said, a beautiful smile instantly lightened up her face, when she thought about the cute baby sleeping upstairs. 

"The real adventure starts when she crosses her one month," Jenna laughed. 

"No. My daughter is obedient. She knows that she shouldn't disturb during nights" Louis said, making everyone laugh. 

"Let's see," King Edgar laughed. 

Later, everyone finished their breakfast, mostly talking about the baby. 

"Now, have you both decided the name for your daughter?" King George asked. "Two names actually" he added. 

"For her other identity, we decided to name her Lillian after Brina's sister in law" Louis said. 

"Good. I was about to suggest that" King Edgar cheered. 

"That's a beautiful name. 'Lillian' symbolises purity and love," Elora said. "What about her Royal name?" she asked. 

"Esmeralda, would be her first name" Brina said. 

"And, Rheann" her middle name, Louis said, looking at his father who is on the verge of tears now. (Rheann here 'ann' is silent) 

It's his first love's name. His first wife. It's actually Rhea but it after she married Edgar and became the Queen, it was changed to Rheann. 

Rheann means great Queen. 

King Edgar is very moved and didn't expect this coming. Even Ethan felt his eyes tear up…

Now, whenever he sees Esmeralda, he can remember his mother. 

"Rhea would be very happy, wherever she is now." Queen Jenna said, remembering her best friend. 

"Actually, I think Esme resembles Rhea. Her hair, her almond eyes…" King George said. 

"Yes. You are right…" King Edgar emotionally said. 

Meanwhile, Brina and Louis looked at each other, smiling. 

But little they know, these people will start pampering her so much and dote on her as if there is no tomorrow.
