Flint POV

Our table, though situated at the far corner, offers a spectacular view overlooking the city.

I looked at the skyline, head whirring about the swift turn of events in my life.

“So, how does it feel being a new dad?” Rowan asked, and his eyes crinkled at the corner.

I bet he was remembering Rohan Joy, too.

“It feels great. My little Queen is smart and loving. Anna brought her up well.”

“That’s good to hear. And how about being a husband? I am expecting that you already threw away your black book?”

That earned a glare from me.

I used to have a list of women I contacted for b*oty calls, and they called that list my black book.

Rowan chuckled. “What?” He asked, raising his palm in surrender.

“You are the player in the family. Of course, I am concerned for your wife.”

“You are hurting my pride big time, bro. I used to play around, but not since I met Anna.”

Rowan’s eyes bulged in surprise.

“You are kidding me?”

This time, I raised my palms like I was taking an oath

    Flint POV“How are you feeling, my Queen?” I asked after we settled at the back of my car, waiting for the driver to pull away from the hospital. Anna swatted my arm. “Don’t call me that. You know that I hated the title. It just reminds me of what I threw away back in Arkadia.” She admitted.But her face showed she was so ready to cringe at the mere mention of her title. I chuckled. “Flint. I am not joking.” She warned.I swallowed my laughter and assumed a straight face. “You may never become the Queen of Arkadia, but in my heart, you will always be my Queen,” I told her softly and saw her looking stunned. “Just as our Penelope, she is my little Queen,” I added. Anna bit her lip. “You say the sweetest things. How do you know what I needed to hear?” She asked softly. I held her hand and squeezed it. “It must be my heart talking straight to you. All the things I tell you, they come from the heart.” I admitted. Anna smiled. “Thank you, Flint.”I pulled her head to rest on m

    Flint POV“Shhh!” Anna warned me when Penelope stirred in her sleep. We just got home, and I placed our baby girl on her cot. “She hasn’t eaten yet. Should we wake her?” I asked, worried that my baby was going to sleep hungry. Anna smiled. “They munched on fruits earlier. If she gets hungry, she’ll wake up, don’t worry.” I nodded. We went to the kitchen to hunt for food. We looked like burglars while we opened and closed cupboards and the refrigerator. Anna was giggling every time I nuzzled her neck from behind. “Flint! Stop! I want to eat.” She admonished and swatted at my arm to make me behave. She looked happy. Her face glowed, and it was a huge turn-on. “I want to eat you instead,” I told her huskily, my breath fanning the loose tendril of hair that hung on the side of her face. Anna’s eyes bulged, and her nostrils flared, looking scandalized at my admission. She turned around and became silent.Anna evaded eye contact and knew that she was shy. That is the reason why

    Anna/Linda POV“Hi.” Flint’s face was the first thing I saw when I opened my eyes. He was smiling, hovering over me, and it was infectious. I smiled back. “Hello,” I said and stretched my arms up my head. “Briana is inviting us to a family dinner.” “Tonight?” Flint nodded. ‘Martina will be discharged this afternoon, and Briana prepared a small party for her. She also wanted to formally welcome you and Penelope in the family.” That had me guarded. “Family only? No other people or..”There was fear in my eyes because the information Storm tipped me off never left my mind. Flint nodded. “Yeah. Only the family. Don’t worry, Briana won’t roast you. It must be her way also to make amends for the shabby way she treated you. She also wanted to get to know our little Queen.” Flint sounded tickled pink at the prospect of bonding with his family, and I didn't want to disappoint him. I got up and went to the bathroom to wash my face and brush my teeth. Flint followed me. He went

    Anna/Linda POV“Good morning, Flint.” It was Goldstone. “Anna.” “You can call her Linda. I don’t want to confuse the people in addressing her. She is known here as Linda. Let it stay that way.” Goldstone handed Flint a brown envelope.“Thanks,” Flint said, taking the brown envelope and tucking it in his pants back pocket. Then, Flint invited Goldstone to join us for breakfast, but the latter declined. “I still have work waiting at the office.” He told us and nodded in my direction. I appreciated his tact, and we smiled at each other. Before Goldstone left us, he held Penelope’s hand, and our girl beamed. “Kwin!” She said, pointing to herself, and Goldstone chuckled. “Your daughter knew where she came from,” Goldstone murmured. “Of course. She is my little Queen. And her mother is my real Queen.” Flint said proudly, making me blush. I could not admonish him because I could feel the pride every time he spoke about us to people he knew.

    Flint POVI saw the excitement on her face and toned down the green-eyed monster that was raring to go out of its shell inside me. Anna needed my cooperation, not my resistance. She needed my strength to provide her a haven from life’s raging storms. Her eyes made quick work of her mobile phone, searching for something. Then, her expression lit up. It was as if she arrived at a Eureka moment. “I already found his secretary’s number. It’s in my contact list. I will call him now.” She explained, eager to be done with the deed. I grabbed the phone from her hands and placed it back on the bedside table. “Flint!” She protested.Her head lifted as she followed the direction my hand was going. “Do it tomorrow,” I told her sternly.Anna pouted. “It’s morning in Arkadia today. It’s the best time to call.” She argued, but I was determined to dissuade her from pursuing it now. Timing is always important when taking crucial actions. Plus, her overexcitement does not bode well for me.

Briana made it a point to include everyone. No one was left behind. Before we left, Briana invited all the cousins for a playdate.“On Sunday, let’s do this again. The kids loved it.”I could not agree more. Penelope loved hanging out with her cousins. “Expect us next Sunday,” Flint promised, smiling wide.I could see that the rift I inadvertently caused the siblings had been repaired, and my heart eased somewhat. He exchanged fist bumps with his brothers - Charles, Rowan, and Marcus. Then, Noah. “Let’s have a girl bonding, too,” Hanna suggested.“We will do a manicure and pedicure at the hotel,” Briana said. “Okay, but let Marcus pay for it,” Martina said, looking at her husband, who gave us his approval by s

I hope he will do it fast because time is running out. “Let’s go,” Flint said when Penelope awoke. He took her bag and carried her in his arms. Then, he turned around to grab my hand, and we walked alongside each other. “Are we going to Briana’s place right now?”I looked at the time and noticed that we were still early. Flint shook his head. “Not yet. We are going to the restaurant. I am sure my little Queen is hungry.” He made faces at our daughter, making Penelope laugh. We went to Rosewood Hotel’s famous restaurant.At the entrance, we gathered attention, especially the father and daughter. Flint did not seem to care and ignored it. The manager showed us to a secluded table.“We’ll order something light,” Flint said, addressing the wait staff.He also ordered an assortment of fruits for Penelope. “I remembered Ma
