My Protector (Bewitched and Bewildered, #2)

by Alanea Alder

"Not to make Beth sound juvenile, because she is not childish by any stretch of the imagination, in fact, when she is not actively tripping, falling or tumbling, she is very graceful and poised, but you may want to consider 'baby proofing' the estate," Caspian advised. "Baby proofing? What's that?" Gavriel got out a pad of paper and pen. At the top, he wrote a reminder to get her alert necklace reset. "Oh hell, I guess you wouldn't have much experience with children. But doing things like placing pillows around a brick fireplace so that the angled edge isn't exposed or replacing glass furniture with blunt edged pieces. Lots of soft surfaces and padding. Stairs will always be a danger but by now she's learned how to fall down them with minimal damage," Broderick explained. "If you are together, try to keep one hand on her at all times, you never know when she will just topple over." Caspian added. "Never, ever let her in the kitchen, ever. There are too many ways something can go wrong." Gavriel could almost see Broderick shuddering. He took notes quickly.
