Christos.They gasped and then gave a little scream of excitement.“But can’t you see? It’s too good to be a coincidence.” The irrepressible Erica jumped from where she was seated to cry softly even as she glanced behind her shoulder to make sure their mother had not heard her little shout.It did not escape my notice that even the more dignified and unruffled Eric was too happy by this news to wave an admonition towards his sister as usual.“Well yes, I must admit it’s too much to be a coincidence. Still, I will advise we take it cool and not get over our heads with unhealthy excitement.” I advised softly but there was a slight grin on my face as I listened to the kids’ excitement. There is no doubt about it that their joy is always a source of happiness to me and considering the manner in which my wolf is also grinning from ear to hear right now while thumping his tail excitedly, I know I’m not the only one affected by them.For the life of me, I find it hard to keep my hard stone
Christos.Of course I know the twins can be initiated later into the wolf’s world but only if their mother consents and even that will take years to achieve.’ I surmised quietly to myself while deciding it was best not to provoke my wolf further with the statement.Besides, I know he loves the children but once I impregnate our human mate and she gives birth to a pup or pups, pups that are directly from my blood, then he will have access to them all he wants because they will be of Alpha’s blood, knowing what it means to be a wolf.“I’m not angry, Erica. I was just thinking of how your plan will work.” I excused my silence smoothly, unwilling to let them see I had been distracted again from our conversation.“But it will work. We have everything planned already, relax. All we need is the correct address of these people and we will find out if they are connected to Mum.” Erica said conversationally and I nodded.“And what if they ain’t related to your Mum in any way?” I asked one of th
Christos.“It is sealed, Mum. No argument.” Her daughter confirmed with another chuckle and I had to pretend a cough to save my life.My wolf gave no care as he rolled around in palpitating joy at the news.Well, the twins and I did not win parse as the woman vehemently refused to get married in less than twenty four hours notice, but between my mother, the kids and I, we finally convinced her to get married to me on the Saturday I earlier proposed.The preceding hours after that was one that was mad and crazy though as everyone got busy to make sure nothing ruined the day.What was harder was having to repress my wolf from going all crazy in his excitement and expectations. One would think there was something more huge happening aside from our wedding.But knowing what our marriage means for him, I tried to be patient and accommodating with his joyful rampage. A marriage with my human mate means an unbreakable bond between my mate and I and of course my powerful wolf.Becca.Walking
Becca.Now, watching as my beautiful, energetic daughter walked down in front of us with bridal petals dropping from her light fingers to decorate our path, I smiled. So beautifully perfect and restlessly excited. Lmao, even now, she has vibrant impatient vibes around her despite the solemn expression in her eyes. ‘She is happy to be doing this, yet it’s as if she wants everything to happen at once.’ I surmised even as I watched her get to the front where she gave a bubbly curtsy before placing a soft kiss on the cheek of the tall man who will soon be their legal guardian. To everyone’s surprise, that man not only bent low to return the soft kisses to her cheek, he also tapped her nose lovingly with a kiss to her head and the little girl who is trying to act all big and composed gave him a warning look to behave himself.I chuckled and I was not surprised to see that the whole audience joined me in laughing at the moment. ‘Really! My daughter is a drama queen.’ I thought to myself j
Becca.The twins jumped so high on the laughing man I was amazed he was able to grab them without even a stagger from him. But what was more amazing was the fact that the twins knew who was behind it all without a word from me. They had not even sought to ask me, neither had they had any doubt about the person who gifted them.‘Shows how much they have bonded with the man in so short a time.’ A voice prompted and I could not argue. What was the point?The whole room sang so beautifully for the twins and by the time they came to a wonderful, amazing halt, I felt the pull of tears behind my eyes. Never had I seen so much love for two little kids who until a few hours ago, was a stranger to them.“Happy Birthday to the most amazing, intelligent super kids I have ever seen in my life. It’s a great pleasure to have these little souls in my life and today seems good enough to pledge my loyalty and love to them in front of you all.” Christos Fernandez raised his voice to announce proudly to
Becca.He sighed!“Since you refused to make a poor man happy, shall we go unwrap the twins’ gifts so they can stop straining their tiny little necks in the hope they would see through the wrapping papers?” He murmured wryly, making it obvious he could read the twins mood perfectly and I gave a musical laugh.“You are so right about that.” I acknowledged wryly with a shake of my head as we walked slowly to join the twins and the crowd who had gathered to speculate on what the gifts could be.“Thanks for thinking about the twins even though today is meant to be for us.” Really, how many men will be that thoughtful to not only remember their step kids on their wedding day but also make plans for their celebration? It takes a special man!Although I am so blessed with kids who are so kind and understanding, they had not minded that their special day would not be so special because their Mum was getting married on the same day. While they had not expected anything from me aside what I gav
Becca. “Congratulations Mrs. Fernandez, you make a beautiful ravishing bride.” A voice murmured somewhere behind me and I turned distractedly towards it, even as I painted a genial smile on my face. When I noticed the person standing behind me, the smile became full blown as I grinned radiantly at my Office Assistant. Though this ceremony is a private one for close friends and family, I had made sure my Assistant was included in the invite. And judging from the smile on her face right now, she is sure glad to be here. “Hello Tracy! Thank you so much for coming.” I murmured softly and that pretty young soul laughed gaily in fun. “Thanks for coming? Are you for real? My dear Miss Summer, oops sorry, I mean Mrs. Fernandez, it is a pleasure to be here.” She admitted with two elaborate hands that were trying to encompass the whole hall and atmosphere and I chuckled softly. “I am glad you are having fun.” Actually, seeing a familiar face from work makes the whole thing more real and b
Becca. “It’s so super cute, Ric.” Even though she’s yet to know what her own gift beholds, everyone could see Rica is happy for her brother as she gave him a warm congratulatory hug.“Thank you Uncle Christos, I love my gift.” Eric blushed warmly as he glanced all the way up to look at the man who had arranged everything so perfectly and Christos Fernandez dropped his head to place a soft kiss on his rosy young cheek.“Believe me, darling, the pleasure is all mine.” He assured him before raising himself to his full height after a gentle pat on the boy's back.“Happy Birthday Celebration once again big brother.” Erica warmly celebrated her twin brother again in front of all and I knew I was not the only one who had a few tears in my eyes by now. The kids sure know how to pull at one’s emotional strings. Yet, they do it all innocently with love and not for attention: which makes it all the more cute and touching.“Thank you, baby sister. Now let’s see what you have as your gift.” The b
