LEAH’S POV

“She’s just our sister, Leah.”

Seeing the amusement in Brixton’s eyes made me feel so embarrassed. I felt so foolish with my sudden assumptions, wishing the ground to swallow me up.

“Oh, is that so…” I cleared my throat and avoided his gaze, trying to mask the shame. But then, I heard him chuckle again.

“Will you go with us now?”

My palms grew sweaty as I felt his hot, probing gaze on my face. I bet he was still wearing that amused smile. He always never misses an opportunity to tease me, and that realization made my cheeks burn.

“I really need to go.”

I desperately wanted to escape the situation. The events last night were still fresh on my memory. I remember them being mad and frustrated after I refused to tell them about my dealings with David. But now, Brixton seemed to have moved on from it. He was back at teasing me again and his demeanor suggests that all was forgiven or forgotten.

However, I didn’t know if it was a good thing or not. I was unsure on how to feel about

The atmosphere inside was thick, and the weight of the situation was pressing heavily on their shoulders.There was another man inside the room, wearing a formal suit and holding a suitcase in his hand.“I want you to investigate everything about her…” Hudson spoke in a serious tone with his brows furrowing. “Including the kids.”“We need the results as soon as possible.” Brixton also demanded, his fingers tapping on the swivel chair’s armrest. There was a hint of frustration and impatience in his eyes.“For this matter, the fastest time I can promise is within a week. It’s quite a complex case.” The investigator spoke, his tone was cautious, probably because noticing the current mood of the twins right now.“Just make sure you find ‘everything’.” Hudson emphasized as pursed his lips.When the investigator left, Brixton sighed. The look on his face was a mix of frustration and confusion.“I can’t believe this.” He

Our director just called and informed me that my attendance was a must for the conference that will be held later on 6 p.m. at The Finance.It was all about handling the final negotiations regarding our project, and I was entrusted to ensure that everything is settled.What a great timing, right?I shut my eyes tight. Just as when I still didn’t want to come face to face with Hudson and Brixton, I had to face an order that I can’t say no to. Time passed by really quick, and the hour I’ve been dreading for finally came. Upon arriving at the company, I was immediately greeted by a familiar man. It was Hudson’s secretary.“My name is Clayton. Please follow me, Ms. Knights.” He ushered and led me to an unknown corridor that was still on the ground floor.The lights around were dim, and the path we were taking felt like it was leading to an un

    LEAH’S POV"It seems like we haven't made our intentions clear to you." Hudson’s voice carried a low, dangerous tone, almost a growl.But… how could it be? Why are they suddenly saying this to me?“What do you… mean?” I chuckled nervously, avoiding their gaze. “I’m just stating the fact. Though our companies are in partnership, the issue was within our own premises…”“Stop it,” Brixton snapped at me, and I slightly jumped off my seat. Seeing my reaction, I somehow witnessed how his gaze softened, but his eyes remained serious.“You know that this isn’t just about business matters.”My heart raced, the dread slowly consuming me. They both wore serious expressions on their faces, and I felt like a criminal under their scrutiny.“Haven’t we made it clear enough?” Brixton continued speaking, his expression somehow unreadable. "You keep asking us what we want, but you knew clearly what we wanted in the first place.”I stilled on my spot. Hearing those words come out of his mouth made me fe

But then, no one answered. I tried again, and again. As the call went unanswered each time, the growing dread clawed at my insides.

Always.Cold sweat broke out on my forehead as I held my phone tremblingly in my hands. I didn’t bother to waste another second as I grabbed my bag and dashed out of my o

They helped my babies and I know I should settle things and at least thank them.“Stay here with your sister, okay?” I instructed Calvin and Clyde with a soft yet firm voice, quickly glancing back towards Hudson and Brixton.“I need to talk to these gentlemen outside for a moment.”My little boys nodded in understanding.

The more I thought about it, the more my heart raced.I also noticed how Calvin and Clyde’s faces lit up as soon as they saw Hudson coming back inside the room, and it left me feeling even more complicated.But I knew I had to do something, as to not give away something very obvious. I cleared my throat, facing my two little boys as I instructed them gently.“Go thank him, darlings.”They obediently nodded at me before trotting towards Hudson who was standing a few feet away from us. They stopped in front of him, their height only reaching to the middle of his thighs as they raised their heads to look up at him.Something seemed

Now that their 5th birthday is approaching, I couldn’t help but worry for the possibility that they may soon unlock their werewolf abilities.

It was not until I heard the movements behind me that I finally shifted slightly.“Hey…”As soon as I realized their tall and brooding figures now standing beside me, my heart started pounding even loudly inside my chest.“Uhm… thanks.” I shot them a quick glance before I zipped the folder I was holding, trying to look calm and busy so they won’t notice the current sudden nervousness inside me.“We’ll come with you during the field inspection next week.” Hudson’s gentle voice entered my ears. I was slightly taken back, not really expecting that they would personally go there.Earlier, during the presentation, we’ve also discussed and mentioned about the field inspection that we would be conducting to see the status of our current ongoing project.I never thought they would propose the idea of going there themselves.“That sounds good.” I tried to ignore the awkwardness and nervousness I was feeling. I stared at them straight, flashing

Your car.” She answered as she waved her hand. “Yours is far more expensive and looks more expensive.”I chuckled at her words. After preparing the necessary files and outputs, we finally headed out of our company building as we both climbed in inside my car and started driving towards The Finance.Today was the schedule to present the monthly report about our ongoing project with The Finance.

My heart was pounding too loud that it kept ringing in my ears, leaving me feel breathless.“Daddy, mommy’s here now!”I snapped out of my stunned stupor when I heard the kids’ enthusiastic voices. I pressed my lips tightly as I tried to suppress the sudden shock and nervousness of facing Hudson and Brixton.“Hey…”It was Hudson who spoke first, beside him was Brixton who also had a gentle yet somewhat teasing smile on his lips.“Hi.” I bit my lip afterwards, mentally slapping myself for how constricted I sounded just now. I could only hope they didn’t notice my reaction earlier.Everything about this… this call… just feels odd and new. And it was sending a foreign surge of feelings inside me that I couldn’t even quite name.My body was rigid after that one word I just said. Contrary to earlier, my heart was pounding

It was just past lunch time, and I’ve stayed most of the day inside my office, trying to busy myself with paperwork. Yet my thoughts were a tangled mess. I couldn’t help replaying the events that happened last night, making it quite hard for me to focus.Last night, I hadn’t planned on joining the triplets with their dinner with both Hudson and Brixton. My intention was to let the kids spend some time together with their fathers while I stayed behind at home. I thought it was what Hudson and Brixton wanted to – to bond with the triplets without me there.But then, when they insisted that I come along, I was caught off guard.I could still remember the look on their faces when they realized I wasn’t planning to join them. Their eyes narrowed at me with a look of slight displeasure and disappointment.“What? Don’t you want to come with us and the kids?” Brixton asked, his tone deep and quite sharp that it

This moment has been long anticipated, yet I equally feared for it to arrive, and its now unfolding before my eyes.Hudson and Brixton – they were now no longer just the uncles in the eyes of my children. Today, they were finally being recognized as their fathers.“Daddy…” Bella’s small voice was filled with a hesitant warmth as she looked up at both Hudson and Brixton with wide, hopeful eyes.Calvin and Clyde followed suit, their voice low and shy yet filled with emotions.Then, I noticed how Brixton and Hudson’s faces softened.

Seeing their reactions somewhat made my heart feel a little lighter. It made me happy as long as they’re happy.“Alright, it’s getting late. You should go to sleep now.” I said in a gentle tone, tucking them once more on the bed.“Mom, can we see our daddies tomorrow?

Calvin’s statement hung in the air, and their little faces were now deep in thought.My heart clenched as I realized the consequences of the lie I had told them in the past – about a daddy was always busy, who was always away and couldn’t come home.“But daddy is always away…” Clyde was the first to break the silence
