I was running through the forest. My hands gripped onto something. I don’t know what but I was petrified and my heart was hammering on my chest. The thing I was holding broke from my grasp causing me to stumble forward. I regained myself and looked to see my mom and Luna.
“Run sweet pea we will hold them off.” Mom cried as she put out her hand.
“protect my babies.” The Luna said as they both jumped at the person in front of them. There bodies did not phase it as it stepped closer to me. They where disintegrated as its darkness touched them.
“No.” I screamed. It smiled at me as it walked closer. I pulled up a shield to protect myself but it did nothing as the thing got closer and closer.
“I will take what belongs to you even though I belong to another. Though you will fight for them it will be in utter waste. You will die. You will not be strong enough to defeat me and the one you promised would fall seeing his mate and sister fall.” I spoke as it reached out to me. I screamed as someone shock me. Markus looked at me worried as he wrapped his arms around me. I held him tight as I tried to breath
“What happened?” Someone said as they came running into the room.
“Mommy had a nightmare.” Patric spoke as I just held Marcus trying to get my breathing back. Soon a set of hands fell on my shoulder causing me to look up. Marcus let me go as Cameron scooped me up into his arms. I cried on his shoulder as the things warning kept playing in my head. I don’t know what it means but it scared me.
“Easy baby, I’m right here. Nothing is going to happen.” He gently cooed to me. I nodded but still didn’t let him go.
“I’ll take the children down for breakfast.” Andrew gently said from somewhere in the room. Cameron turned to him and nodded before focusing back on me. He lifted me from the mattress and walked over to a chair I had in the room. He sat in it with me on his lap.
“Tell me what happened Av.” He gently cooed as he held me tight. I opened my mind and shared the scene with him. He held me tighter as he heard the warning. “Nothing is ever going to happen to you.”
“Promise.” I whimpered.
“I promise.” He smiled as he captured my lips. It was gentle and sweet. When I felt something on my bottom lip I was confused. He chuckled a little as he pulled away.
“I have never been kissed really.” I said blushing.
“Don’t worry baby means that we get to teach you and we are fine with that.” Cameron smiled happily at me causing me to blush some more. “You are so cute when you blush.”
“Your handsome when you smile at me.” I said not really thinking about what I said.
“Well then I should keep you blushing so I can look handsome with this smile.” He chuckled lightly as he kissed me once again. This time instead of feeling something on my bottom lip he grabbed my ass cheek causing me to gasp. As he did his tongue went into my mouth and helped me out by instructing me with his tongue. Soon I got it and the kiss became so passionate that I was out of breath when he pulled away. “That baby, is how you kiss.”
“Oh.” I spoke as I panted for breath. He chuckled as he got up and put me on my feet. He walked with me tight to him to the kitchen where the children and Andrew where plating some food.
“Oh ho someone was being naughty.” Andrew said with a raised brow. Well if I wasn’t still red from the kiss my blushing would make me now.
“Mommy is as red as a tomato.” Patric chuckled as I had turned away from Andrew. Cameron just chuckled as he got me seated.
“That’s because your mommy really loves me.” He smiled happily. “She is embarrassed because she kissed me.”
“If she kissed you then that means your my daddy “ Patric exclaimed all happy. Well to say this caught Cameron by surprise was an understatement. He was in so much shock he fell of his chair. “I have so much I want to tell you.”
“Oh.” I spoke but I don’t think this phased Patric as he looked at Cameron.
“Daddy.” Patric said almost like he was testing the word. Cameron looked at me then at Patric. “Daddy.”
“Yes.” Cameron said. Little high pitch so I knew he was still shocked. Well this caused Patric to stand on his chair and look at Cameron who was now back on the stool.
“Where have you been. I five year old and you where gone. Did you not love us. Mommy was so strong but she got hurt so much.” Patric yelled. Okay this was not what I was expecting. New hands found my waist as a head laid on my shoulder. I quickly placed my finger to my lips causing Caiden to be quiet. “A daddy is suppose to love his son and protect his mommy.”
“Patric, I…" Cameron started but couldn’t come up with anything. “I’m sorry.”
“No you don’t get to say sorry to me.” Patric said getting on the island and stomping up to him. He reached over and forced his face to look at me. Well with Caiden still on my shoulder he froze. Oh the shock on both there faces. “Hey get off my mommy.”
“But why?” Caiden asked confused. He really had no idea what was going on here. He leaned off me when Patric came stomping over.
“Sweet heart…” I tried to say.
“No no no no no.” He repeated as he raced back over to Cameron and forced his face back to me. “Apologise.”
“But Caiden is also your daddy.” Cameron tried fighting.
“You are daddy, you kissed mommy.” Patric spoke folding his arms across his chest. Before I knew it lips captured mine in a heated kiss leaving me utterly speechless and unaware of what was going on.
“See.” Cameron spoke up getting to his feet. He grabbed Patric off the counter and put him on the floor.
“I got two daddies.” Patric spoke looking at me. Marcus looked just as shocked as I looked over at him.
“Patric we got two dads.” Marcus said. Well this information caused Patric to do a theatrical flop to the floor like he fainted.
“Two daddy’s.” He murmured over and over again. I couldn’t hold back the chuckle as I let it go. This caused everyone to look at me. I held my hands up to apologise.
“You wouldn’t be laughing if the 5 year old was giving you a lecture.” Cameron grumbled as he came back to me. Caiden sat on the stool as we watched Patric just lie there. I smiled as I got up and walked over to him. I knelt down beside him.
“Patric, baby are you okay.” I asked.
“No mommy.” He said shaking his head. I tried not to laugh or smile but man was it hard when he was like this.
“What’s wrong baby?” I asked gently.
“I have two daddies.” He exclaimed.
“Yes baby you got to daddies.” I said still trying to hold back my chuckles.
“How didn’t they not rip you apart.” He said looking at me. I looked at him shocked. Cameron choked on his drink as Caiden began to laugh.
“Excuse me?” I finally asked.
“Well I baby and my wiener small but they big boys….”
“No no no.” I spoke as he looked at me weird. “Where did you hear this?”
“We asked my friends older brother how babies where made and he told us.” Patric said as he leaned up and looked at me. “We don’t believe babies come with storks.”
“Oh um….” I said actually at a loss for words.
“So are they small or did they rip you apart.” This had Caiden spitting his coffee out now as Cameron laughed.
“No baby they where gentle with mommy. Um how about we eat breakfast. I bet your new daddies have cool things they want to do with you.” I said trying to get him off the topic. I will have to find that boy and give him a good lecture.
“Yeah, we got a day all planned out for you so mommy can rest.” Caiden said as he smacked his brothers shoulder.
“We also got to go see Grandma later.” Cameron said between his fits of laughter. I just shook my head as I lifted Patric to my hip and walked back to the counter. I got him on his chair before walking over to mine. We ate together as Patric tried to get out the information as to what they where going to do for the day.
“Mom.” Markus gently said as we finished and where cleaning up.
“Yes.” I said taking his plate. He looked upset about something. I put the plate in the sink and looked at him. “what’s wrong love.”
“Are they going to be our dads now?” Markus asked. I nodded my head. “Mom I don’t know if I can…”
“Markus came with me.” I gently spoke as I led him out of the room and up to ours. I shut the door as I walked over to the mattress on the floor. I sat down and pulled him into my lap where I hugged him tight. “Ever since you where 5 years old I have held you close and treated you the way you wanted me to. You would cry for your mom every night and I would be right there to sooth you. At your seventh birthday you called me mom for the first time it broke my heart but also mended it. I never thought you would ever call me mom and I was fine with that. You knew who your mom was and really I didn’t want to replace her in anyway. Now if you choose to call them dad or not I will be okay with that. Your father was a strong man and I’m sure he would have been very proud of how you grew up. How protective you are over your little brother and the people you care about.”
“Mom, I want a dad so bad.” Markus cried as he gripped onto me. “I don’t want one that will brake you though.”
“Hey, if anyone tries to even touch her I will personally kill them.” Cameron spoke as he came over and sat with us. Markus looked at him then at me. I gently nodded and he rolled into Cameron's embrace. I smiled happily at them.
“Mom has been broken for years. I cant see her broken again dad.” Markus cried into his embrace. “Please don’t let her brake.”
“I wont son. Your fathers will be here to keep her together and strong.” Cameron spoke gently. “Plus there are two of us. Nothing can get by us. Specially after what happened a few nights before. We are on high alert.”
“Good because I’m still mad about that.” Markus chuckled gently.
“Oh and here I though we where off the hook after the ice cream.” Cameron said causing us all to chuckle. I cleared my eyes as Patric Esmeralda and Caiden walked in.
“You got ice cream from him. Man I got the worst side of the stick.” Caiden said. “I had to go out and get a specific game.”
“But it was my favorite.” Markus said as he looked over at him. Esmeralda raced over to my arms as did Patric. They sat in my lap peaceful with Cameron sitting behind me.
“Then it was well worth it.” Caiden smiled happily. I smiled like I have never smiled before. I had my family and even though it took years of torment and disaster I have found them.
