Dad made an unbelievable demand about my newborn twins. I refused to let him decide their future.

Just hours after marrying Daniel, the love of my life, I delivered our twin boys by emergency C-section. The labor had been long and terrifying. Both babies were healthy, but I was exhausted and in pain, drifting in and out of sleep while Daniel stayed beside me.

Then the door burst open.

My parents walked in without knocking, followed by my younger sister, Olivia.

Olivia had struggled with infertility for years. I had cried with her after failed treatments and supported her through every disappointment. I understood her grief.

But I never expected what came next.

Dad stared at the bassinets beside my bed.
