KADE’S POV I have no idea how long I spent in the twins’ room. All I knew was that I wasn’t ready to leave any time soon. I liked lying on the carpet, listening to Luca talk while Matteo watched TV. I liked it when, afterward, we continued with the Lego set they’d been building when I first eavesdropped. I liked just…being with my children. It seemed mundane, silly, even, to spend an entire afternoon with two little kids, especially with all the power and authority I wielded, but I didn’t think I’d ever felt so fulfilled. I wanted this; I wanted it badly. The only thing that could have made the afternoon any better was if Andrea was with us. We’d be like a normal, happy family, indulging in seemingly silly things like enjoying each other’s company and watching ‘Mr. Maker’
