Aaron was speechless. He hadn't expected this to be the reason behind her sudden change of heart.

He gave her a teasing look and asked, "Don't you hate Lucas? Why would you want to let our child marry his?"

Selena lifted her chin defiantly. "Lucas is Lucas, and Ave is Ave. They're not the same. I want to be even closer to Ave." Aaron smirked. "And what if both of you gave birth to children of the same genders?"

Selena froze for a moment, realizing the flaw in her plan. "Oh, right... if that happens, there's no way to arrange a marriage."

Amused, Aaron looked at her. "There are plenty of ways to strengthen your bond. They could make us their child's godparents, for one. But as for forcing an arranged marriage, let's drop that idea. You never know what the kids will want, and they might resent us for making that decision. It's not worth the trouble."

Selena nodded, her expression thoughtful. "You're right. Kids these days rebel against arranged marriages. It's better to leave it to fate."

She was easy to reason with, and once the idea was explained, she let it go without much fuss.

Aaron ruffled her hair. "So, how about that late-night snack now?"

Selena smiled, "Just a little bite. I'm starving."

"Barbecue?"

"Perfect!"
