Julius sat at his desk slowly paging through the photo album his father gave him. He couldn’t stop staring at the images of Macey and the babies. Guilt gnawed at him every minute. He should have been there. Macey should never have gone through her pregnancy alone. He should have listened to her, paid attention. He hadn’t even known she wanted to go back to school.

“Julius. Jules. Jules!”

He jerked to attention at his brother’s entreats. March watched him with concern. Ever since they left their father’s office, Julius paged through the album over and over again. It was clear his brother’s thoughts were spiraling into guilt and regret.

“I know what you’re thinking, but maybe this is a good thing.”

“How is this good?”

“You’ve been worried about Macey for six years, not knowing what happened to her, if she was okay,” March said, “Now, you know.”

Julius stared at his brother, letting the words slowly sink in

    “So, about family,” March hesitated, “do they know…” Julius stiffened, glancing up at him. Did his children know they had a father? Did they want to meet him? Would they even give him a chance after he missed so much of their life? “I—I wanted to ask, but…I just couldn’t do it in front of the kids,” Rose gave him a sympathetic smile. “I really don’t know how much Macey told them. I’m sorry.” “That’s all right,” Julius tried to sound convincing. “I already missed so much. I don’t have the right to be called dad.” “They are five years old, Julius,” Rose gently admonished. “Yes, you’ve missed five years, but they have a lot of growing to do. You can still have years with them—as their father.” “If Macey lets me,” Julius sucked in a breath. Rose wasn’t wrong. In the grand scheme of things, five years was not long, but it didn’t alleviate his guilt in the slightest. He hadn’t been there for his wife when she nee

    They rushed off the elevator and headed to the front desk when laughter brought them to a sudden halt. Their gazes went to the waiting area to see a man in his mid-forties in a finely tailored suit seated in one of the chairs. His hair was dark and neatly styled despite thinning as he aged. Seated comfortably on his lap was a content Aria. Sitting on the coffee table in front of them, swinging his legs, was a slightly bored Caden. As surprising as it was to see the twins, it was even more surprising when Aria spoke perfect German. “Was hat vier Beine und ist reisebereit?” “Ich weiß es nicht, Prinzessin. Was ist das?” “Ein Elefant!”[1] Aria giggled and earned a hearty laugh from the gentleman currently entertaining her. Or perhaps it was the other way around. Caden snickered at the over-the-top response. He didn’t think his sister’s joke was that funny, but he also wasn’t paying close attention as he had th

    “You realize your mother is probably out of her mind right now?” Augustus shook his head, holding out his hand to Stephen, who placed his phone in it, already dialed and ringing. He only had to wait a moment before a panicked voice answered, “I can’t talk now! I have to go!” “Macey, before you hang up—You wouldn’t be looking for a pair of adorable twins who happen to be standing in front of me, would you?” “…They are with you? Thank god.” “It seems they didn’t like their babysitter and snuck away,” Augustus said, choosing not to elaborate on details. There was time enough for that later, when she wasn’t panicked. “I’m at the gallery right now. Can they stay with you until I’m done?” “Of course. I have another hour before I can knock off work, then I’ll take them home. You can pick them up there,” Augustus fell silent, listening to her response before saying goodbye and handing the phone back to Stephen. He gave the twi

    Augustus stepped into his office to see Aria and Caden comfortably seated on one of his couches. Stephen placed a plate of cookies in front of them and handed them each a juice bottle as the DaLair patriarch entered. Ever efficient, even Augustus had no idea how Stephen always managed to procure proper refreshments so quickly. He sat down across from the content pair, eyeing them carefully. They certainly didn’t act like five-year-olds who had just survived a harrowing experience. In fact, they seemed quite pleased with themselves. Augustus accepted the coffee Stephen offered while he considered his grandchildren. Despite their innocent looks, he couldn’t treat them like normal kids. “All right…you two want to tell me why you are really here?” Aria and Caden shared a look before Aria spoke up, “We’re here to start Phase Two.” “Phase Two? Of what?” “Our plan to get maman and papa back together, of course,” Aria smile

    They skipped to the door, quickly donning their shoes and jackets. The weather had been fair, but it was still chilly, to say nothing of the sloppy snow on the streets. “Don’t forget your hats,” Macey joined them, fitting both with knit caps. “How anyone could eat ice cream when it’s this cold outside, I just don’t understand.” “I agree,” Victoria called from the kitchen, shaking her head. “All of you are crazy.” “Bye, bye maman! Tante Vicki! Tante Dillon! Be back soon!” Aria waved as their grandfather ushered them out the door. “Don’t let them stay out too long, dad,” Macey warned. “I don’t want them catching cold.” “Of course, of course,” Augustus nodded. “Don’t worry. I raised two boys, remember?” Macey rolled her eyes, but didn’t argue any further. In truth, he raised her as well. Her father had been around for her early years, so she thought of Augustus as a doting uncle for most of her childhood.

    No. He couldn’t do that to her. She needed a little more time to spread her wings. Once she could truly stand on her own, then it would be time to tell Julius the truth. His son would have to hold out until then. Maybe then, he would be able to win her heart back. The drive to their favorite café was short and they disembarked, only to hurry inside. Normally, they would have sat outside, but the day was just too cold. Caden and Aria stomped their feet on the welcome mat to shake off any lingering slush. “Bonjour. Petits!” the proprietor greeted.[1] “Bonjour,” they called together. Augustus chuckled as they took their seats. It amazed him to think his grandkids were naturally bi-lingual. They spoke French fluently and their English was impeccable. Jude was taking Spanish in school, but he could barely manage a short conversation. It was unlikely he would retain any of it once he was graduated. Was the secret actually livi

    Victoria made it clear whether Paul could win Macey’s heart was up to him and Augustus was not allowed to meddle. Though Augustus was a multi-billionaire business owner, there was something about Victoria that made him want to stay on her good side and not aggravate her. As of now, Macey seemed blissfully unaware of Paul’s affection and showed no interest in him beyond a good friend. If the kids had shown him a lot of attention, Macey might have been more inclined to see Paul in another way, but thankfully, the kids hadn’t grown needlessly close to him. “What do you want to know?” Augustus finally said. “We’ll start with his name,” Aria diplomatically said. “Julius.” “Julus?” Aria tried to pronounce the unfamiliar name. “Julius. Julius DaLair. He’s my youngest.” “You have more children?” “I have two. March is his older brother.” “So we have an oncle, too?” Aria smiled, lo

    “Caden?” Aria asked, looking across the room to her brother’s bed. After ice cream with their grandfather, they asked a few more questions about their family. He even showed them some pictures he had on his phone. While it was exciting to see their family, it only made it clearer how much distance separated them. Their cousin was actually quite a bit older than they were. In their experience, older kids didn’t really care about younger ones, but maybe that wasn’t true if they were family. “Caden?” No answer. “You know, Caden, you should talk more. It made maman really worried when you didn’t talk for so long. Oncle Paul kept saying you needed to be tested.” No answer. “Caden, are you asleep?” “No.” “What do you think about what grand-père said today?” “About our papa?” “Well, yeah.” “Hmm.” “If our papa is like Grand-père Gus then he
