As soon as the potatoes were done, I finished the potato salad and started mixing baked beans. I put them in the oven and started shaping the bread dough for dinner rolls. I covered them with a towel and asked Luke, “Do you want to put the corn on the cob on the grill to cook?” He asked, “Do you want me to?” I shrugged, “I’m good either way. I just need to know so I can start boiling water if I’m going to make them in here.” He smiled, “Okay, I’m going to cook them on the grill. You have a lot to do in here.” I smiled, “You’re so sweet. I need to get a salad going.” He asked, “Don’t you think you have plenty of sides now?” I replied, “Not everyone is going to like everything I’m making.” I started cutting the vegetables for a standard garden salad. As I put the salad in the refrigerator, the doorbell rang and Luke opened the door to greet Cody and Rachel. As soon as they walked in, Rachel ran to the kitchen and hugged me tightly. I smiled and asked, “How are you doing?” She smiled, “I

I laughed as Cody continued, “This is some of the best stuff I have ever tried! You have to show Rachel how to make this.” I smiled, “I can definitely do that.” Rachel looked at me with surprise, “You would really give me the recipe for this?” I looked at her with confusion, “Why wouldn’t I share it with my friends?” She smiled, “There are a lot of women who are extra protective of their kitchen secrets.” I scoffed at the idea, “I am nowhere near protective. I am all for sharing the love.” She smiled, “Thanks!” I shrugged, “I’ll write it down for you and explain it as I go.” We finished our dessert and I was so full I could hardly move. Judging from the way Rachel was stretched out on the couch, holding her stomach and groaning, I think it’s safe to assume that she feels the same way. Luke and Cody decided they would run off the excess food and I’m beginning to think we should’ve gone with them. Either way, I really needed to move. I started cleaning the kitchen. I loaded the dishwash

King Parker replied, “I have no idea who that is. Why?” I replied, “That name is in the ledger, but not on the computer. She has received four million, three hundred thousand dollars from the kingdom bank account.” He raged, “Who the hell are these people and why are they getting money from us?!” I smiled, “I think it’s time for you to bring in the elder who was working on the books. I will talk to him when I get there to talk to Emma.” Luke gasped, “I almost forgot about her.” I smirked, “I’m not in any hurry. She can wait for as long as it takes to get our stuff done, then we can take our time getting to the dungeons.” Luke and his dad laughed, then Parker chuckled, “In that case, I will let you know when the elder will be here as soon as I reach him.” As we ended the call, I looked at Luke, “I’m going to look further. There is still a big discrepancy between the ledger and the computer.” He nodded, “That would be best.” I asked, “So, is it safe to say that if a payment is to an ind

Nicona continued, “Her bear is saying that she has been planning on being a princess for as long as she has had her bear. She even stopped looking for her mate because she wanted our mate.” I looked at Emma and shook my head, “Tsk, tsk, tsk. It would seem that you are quite miserable since MY mate is taken now.” Emma growled, “You’re not a princess yet. You haven’t been crowned!” Nicona then tells me, “This bitch was paid a lot of money by Ernie Ball to kill you.” I chuckled as I shook my head, “You’re nothing but an assassin. You were paid to try to kill me. I want to know who ordered the hit.” She looked at me like I sprouted three heads, “Where did you hear that?” I laughed, “You’re the one that said you aren’t working alone. I want to know who ordered it and why.” Emma scowled, “I wanted you dead. It doesn’t matter how I wanted to get it done. The money was just a bonus.” I asked, “How much money?” She smiled, “Enough that I would never have to work.” I suggested, “Four million, s

King Parker tried to keep his cool as he replied through gritted teeth, “Elder Thomas. I’m so glad you could make it. We seriously need to talk.” He pushed a button on his desk and four warriors walked in, surrounding Elder Thomas. The elder looked all around him and the man sighed in defeat. Nicona told me, “His bear says that he wanted complete control over the kingdom’s finances. He didn’t think King Parker and our mate would ever notice that he had full control.” I laughed, “Elder Thomas, did you really think they would never check your work?” Elder Thomas smirked, “In the twenty years that I was doing it, they never checked my work.” Luke added, “Then I decided to get the ledger to check on you.” Elder Thomas scowled, “You had your head so far up your mate’s ass you wouldn’t have noticed any of my entries.” Luke scowled, “I was determined to find her, but I was not unaware of the suspicious way you were acting. Don’t think I didn’t notice you and Emma whispering in your office as

Luke and I smiled at his dad and I nodded, “Thank you, my king. I promise to do my best for you and make you proud.” King Parker chuckled, “I have no doubt that you will. For now, let’s take that tour of the castle.” Luke and I held hands as his father walked us through the castle, showing us all the most important rooms. At one point, Parker opens a door to reveal a modern office with a wall full of windows explaining, “This is Luke’s office for when he’s working here.” I stepped in and saw that there was a second office desk with computer and printer. He smiled, “As soon as I found out that my son found his mate, I furnished his office with another office space.” I smiled, “Thank you. It’s perfect. I love it.” He smiled, “You are very welcome. I’m glad you like it.” Then he walked us to another wing of the castle. He opens the double doors and smiles, “This is the private wing that you two will have when you have to stay here with us for work or safety.” I nodded, “I would love to c

We finished visiting with Parker and Zara, then we went home. As soon as we got home, I called my grandma and she answered on the second ring, “Hello?” I smiled lovingly, “Hey grandma. How’s everyone doing?” She replied, “We’re all okay. Are you okay?” I could tell she was concerned about why I’m calling by the tone of her voice, so I replied, “I’m fine. I just wanted to let you know that you will be getting an invitation to my crowning ceremony. I would also like for you to come up a couple days early so that you and I can cook for Luke’s parents. I’ve tried telling them that nobody leaves your table less than miserable. His mom took it as a challenge.” Grandma laughed her boisterous laugh then answered, “Of course we will come early. I would love to meet them.” I smiled, “Sweet! I can’t wait to see you again. I love you so much.” Grandma replied, “I love you too, sweetie. You take care of that big strong man. I can tell he is crazy about you.” I chuckled, “He’s absolutely perfect, gr

Elisa answered, “No, but I did just get off the phone with Alpha Marcus and I was wondering if you would like to join me in this rescue.” I smiled, “You are so sweet to ask, but I doubt that I have any talents that you could use.” She argued, “Actually, I could use your Omega powers. We are going to have a bunch of panicky women that will need to stay calm during the rescue so we can catch the guys who kidnapped them and, ultimately, the person who ordered it.” I smiled, “I would love to. I’m sure Luke could help too.” She agreed, “We could always use a guy with muscle and magic.” I laughed, “I’m sure I can arrange that.” She chuckled, “Sweet. We will be there in ten minutes to teleport you.” I smiled, “Okay. We’ll be ready.” I ended the call and turned to Luke, “We have ten minutes to get ready. We are going to be helping Elisa and Elliot on this rescue. I’m not going to have time to finish cooking supper. I can do it when we get back Is that okay with you?” He hugged me close and ki

I smiled as I watched my kids get out of Alex’s car. They are eighteen now and are now in college and they are home for spring break. Luke and I had two more girls, twins, who are twelve now. Lizzy and Emily ran out to greet them. Lizzy yelled, “Adele! You’re home!” Adele hugged her sisters, “Hey, ladies, how are things going?” Lizzy growled, “I can’t keep Emily out of my clothes!” Emily scowled, “I would stay out of your clothes if you would stay out of my makeup!” Lizzy sneered, “Don’t leave it out where I can get to it.” I laughed, “Girls. Stop. Both of you have the same exact clothes and makeup. You should each be using your own. You even have your own bathrooms and bedrooms to keep your own stuff in. Use your own rooms.” Lizzy whined, “But, mom, why can’t we share anything? We’re twins, we already share your beauty.” I laughed, “I’m not giving in. You two need to stick to your own things.” Lizzy was right. All of my girls inherited my light blonde hair and blue eyes, while our bo

I was feeding Zachary when Adele’s highchair starts to float off the floor and she starts giggling wildly. I laughed at the little boy with the mischievous eyes, “Micah, put your sister down. You’re such a naughty boy.” Alex was just minding his own business while eating some dry cereal all by himself. These babies are now one year old and I am positive that these babies communicate in their own language. I know they conspire against me daily. Luckily, I helped my mother raise triplets. I know Micah is running the show that I am currently witnessing. He knows that Adele’s sweet giggles crack me up and distract me. However, I know to watch Alex. He’s about to make a big mess with his cereal so that I will have to pick it all up. I shook my head, “Nuh-uh ya’ll. I know what you’re up to. Micah, tone down the magic.” I looked up and saw my daughter’s highchair had nearly ascended to the ceiling. Micah gave me a guilty look and she suddenly started slowly descending to the floor. I shook my

The next day, the babies and I were discharged from the hospital and Luke and I took them to our house, where everyone was waiting for us. When we got home, Luke carried two baby carriers into the house, then came back outside, carried two more babies into the house, then helped me. I asked, “Is anyone in the house right now?” He chuckled, “Everyone is in the house right now. Including grandma.” I smiled, “That means grandma has been cooking!” He laughed, “Our island is full of cookies, cakes and cobblers.” I laughed hard while holding my abdomen, “She is so predictable. I’m sure she won’t be cooking as much once she gets her hands on the babies.” He laughed, “I think you’re right. She ran from the kitchen to the baby carriers as soon as I was in the door with the first two.” I was smiling widely as soon as I walked in the door. I looked around and saw a house full of family. I mean FULL… my parents, all of my grandparents, all of my siblings, Uncle Nico, Brenna, King Parker, Queen Za

Sylvie’s POV When we got to my room, the nurse already had four little cribs with four tiny babies in them sitting beside my bed. Nurse Holly smiled, “Well, princess, you have a bunch of people outside who are looking to see you and these little sweeties. You should feed them soon, but breast feeding will be impossible for all of them. I would rotate babies to decide who will get the breast milk… at least for the next few weeks. There are some prepared bottles of formula under the cribs for the ones who don’t get breast milk.” She showed us where they are as well as the diapers, wipes and blankets. Luke handed boy A to me and I tried to get him to latch on. As he started suckling, I noticed Luke was watching and beaming. I smiled at him, “Are you happy, my prince?” He sighed, “More than happy. I can’t wait to show you all off to our kingdom.” I laughed, “Should we invite Beagan to the house for a couple days to take a bunch of pictures? We can choose a few to send to the media.” He s

Two weeks later, mom and I were making cookies and cupcakes to freeze. Luke reminded me, “Don’t forget, we have a doctor appointment today.” I asked, “What time?” He looked at his watch, “We will need to be there in an hour.” I smiled, “Okay. Do you mind if mom comes with us? I’m sure she would love to see the babies.” He smiled, “Of course. I wouldn’t have it any other way.” We finally got everything together and left for the castle hospital. When we got there, the nurse led us to a room and I sat on the exam table. When Doctor Kelvin walked in, he smiled, “It won’t be long before our prince has an heir.” I chuckled, “A few heirs. I’m feeling it too. They are super active. Sometimes it feels like they are wrestling around in there.” He chuckled, “They probably are. I’m sure their elbow room has diminished greatly.” I asked, “I’ve been having a ton of back pain lately. It feels like my belly has dropped too. Do you think they will be coming soon?” He raised his eyebrows, “We should ch

I actually only got to work another month before King Parker put me on maternity leave. I was not happy about it, but I accepted it with as much grace as I could muster. Luke tried to comfort me, “Love, he only cares about your health and you are getting so close to giving birth.” I sighed, “I know. It doesn’t take much to hurt my feelings these days. It’s just the pregnancy hormones.” He shrugged, “That doesn’t mean it bothers me less to feel this feeling. It hurts me when you are hurt.” I smiled, “Okay. I will try to block off those feelings.” He laughed, “You will do no such thing.” I laughed, “I’m kidding, love. I will do my best try to keep my emotions in check.” As we sat in the living room, I picked up the current blanket that I’m working on. I have already completed a Cape Cod blue and white blanket, a royal blue and white one, and I am currently working on a pastel blue and white one. The last one is going to be a pastel pink and white. They are all eight-point stars. Luke wat

It has been a month since the dinner with Benny and Cayenne, and I’m starting to get very uncomfortable. My belly is getting very big now and my doctor is threatening bed rest for the last three months if I don’t start taking it easy. That means no more going to the apartments and helping with the remodel. I’m not very happy about it, but my awesome mate has made it well worth my while. He found out that I learned how to crochet when I was young. He asked, “Would you be happy about taking it easy if I bought all the stuff for you to start crocheting blankets for our babies?” I acted like I was thinking about it, “Well, if I had something to keep me busy, it might help. Crocheting is something I can do and see progress. I guess that would help. Can I go with you?” He chuckled, “You will have to come with me. I wouldn’t know what to get.” I laughed, “I would also like to try to find some maternity clothes.” He responded, “Okay, but we need to make sure you aren’t on your feet for too lon

When we got home, I realized that it was time for me to start dinner. I asked Luke, “How does chicken parmesan sound for dinner?” He asked, “Are you going to make your homemade garlic bread for it?” I laughed, “Of course. I also want to make a triple berry cobbler with homemade ice cream for dessert. What do you think?” He asked, “Triple berries?” I explained, “Strawberry, blackberry and raspberry.” He smiled, “That sounds really good.” I started making the bread for my garlic bread and smiled, “I think I’m going to make dinner rolls slathered in homemade garlic butter. I think that would go over better.” He smiled, “That would be great, love.” I started the bread and kneaded it until it was ready to rise. I covered it with a clean, damp, tea towel. I went to the office while I was waiting for the bread to rise and checked my email. I didn’t see anything new, so I checked for more receipts and purchase orders and only found four of each. I was able to enter those in a matter of minute

I decided to cook fried chicken, mashed potatoes, gravy and green beans for supper. I had the chicken, mashed potatoes and green beans ready and was working on the gravy when Luke walked into the kitchen, his phone up to his ear. I heard him tell someone, “Just do what I wanted to do. Stop thinking about what he wants. He doesn’t know what he’s talking about.” I furrowed my brows, “What was that about?” He tossed his phone on the island and sighs as he runs his hand down his face, “My business partner is an idiot. He wants to waste money on redecorating all of the apartments in a newly acquired complex, but most of them already have renters in them.” I asked, “So why not redecorate each one as it becomes vacant? It’s less of an initial expense. You can charge more for the newly renovated ones and keep the rent steady for the ones that are currently occupied. That way you will keep earning money while you are spending it. Plus, the newly renovated ones will attract renters much faster.
