Azrael came home with a sour look on his face. I knew that look.“I’m guessing things didn’t end well.” I said as I fed Lennon.“Good news is Lucas is very forgiving to my mom, though this is a record, or your dad has good negotiating skills. The bad news—my parents are getting a divorce.” Azrael replied.I was dumbfounded.“They are getting a divorce?” I asked, and Azrael nodded.“It was bound to happen. They lasted longer than announced. When I graduated from university, they were going to divorce but they kept dragging on. They built their relationship on pain, an unhealthy dependence and an unrequited love that never had hope, it what’s they need, especially Kioko. I’m glad they made this decision together.”“How do you feel about everything?”Azrael heaved. “So much as happened in such a short time, it’s difficult to explain. Finding out Isaac is my brother; Valentin is Lucas’ mate, Kioko faking documents for Isaac to stay dead and my parents’ divorce. I’m stressed.”I burped Len

AzraelKioko signed the papers and passed it to the lawyer. The lawyer scanned through the papers once again and stacked it neatly.“I’ll send this to the court to complete the divorce.” The lawyer said and smiled at dad. “Congratulations I suppose.”It felt like an insensitive remark, but he knew a lot of things behind that smile he held most of the times.He bowed to my parents and left the room with the butler trailing behind him.We all sat down quietly for a while, staring at each other. Kioko and Lucas tapped the table awkwardly until I broke the silence.“What happens now?” I asked.Kioko stretched her hand to Lucas. “We go our separate ways. Lucas gets some of my property and we have the same relationship we’ve always had, but divorced. Your dad is leaving the house to go stay with your boyfriend’s father.”Lucas smirked. “It’s for a while. Do we have a problem?”“Leslie will be glad to hear that.” I replied, and Lucas smiled.“So, when are you going to propose?” Lucas asked.

“Say chichi.”“Mama.”Nikolaus was incredibly difficult.“Chi.”“Ti.”“Chichi.”“Mama.”I groaned in frustration and wiped my hand down my face. He was finding this hilarious.“What am I doing?” I asked.The knock on the baby’s door distracted me.“Am I interrupting something?” Leslie asked and sat on the arm of the chair. “He won’t call you if you persist. It’s a gradual process.”“He calls Bennett something other than mama.”“Because of Lennon calls him that and Ben is his dad. You don’t have to compete with Ben. I think you should be proud to share that name with me while he’s small. He doesn’t know what it means. He’s a baby.”Leslie ran his fingers through Nikolaus’ hair.“He sees you a lot often than he sees Ben. When he was a newborn, you were always the one carrying him around and feeding him because I needed rest and babies learn from observation. He must have learnt the people who are always around should be called mama, so don’t force it, be proud. It’s not like I’d want to

Leslie Move in with him? Azrael was asking me to move in with him. “…e, Leslie, Kid.” Azrael snapped his fingers in my face, and I blinked. “What?” I asked and he frowned. “You zoned out.” I touched my forehead. “Either I was hallucinating, or you asked me to move in with you.” “I did.” Azrael stated. Azrael gazed into my eyes and folded his arms. I averted my gaze, sighed, and stared back at him. “Don’t you think it’s soon?” I asked. “How? We’ve been dating for more than a year Leslie; we’re starting our life together as lovers and a fated pair. We’re raising Nikolaus together and there’s nothing I’d love more than coming home to have dinner with you and Nikolaus.” I chuckled. “We work in the same company.” “Yes. Living together will be no different from our lifestyle now except you’ll wake and sleep to my face seven days a week instead of four or five days. Won’t it be wonderful if Nikolaus saw our property as his childhood home?” “It would but Azrael. It takes a lot to

I dropped the cake on the table as the toddlers scampered around, wailing, and screaming and the others at the fun section or their parents.Lucas sat on my dad’s thighs with a glass of alcohol. I joined my family to make barbeques and Ancel handed me a can of soda.“I can’t believe Azrael let you host a banging toddler party on his property. He also arranged guest transportation. Why aren’t you married yet?” Ancel asked as I nudged him.“Because your dumb brother keeps setting standards for my son with that idiot.” Lucas said.“Oh God, not this again.” I mumbled as I opened the can.“No drama in with my first albino grandson’s birthday. Leslie isn’t dumb, and it isn’t right to meddle or drink much in their relationship when we have ours.” Dad collected the wine glass from his lover’s hand.I should have listened to Azrael and distracted them with a date.“Ew, dad! No PDA! Rub in my face that I’m single.” Ancel whined and everyone laughed.“Maybe if you stopped hiding, you’d find a lo

Azrael I climbed downstairs with my car keys jingling with each step. Leslie sat on the couch, papers littered everywhere, and Niko was asleep an arm away while he placed a phone to his ear. “Your dad will pick him up tomorrow morning.” Leslie said and glanced at me. I kissed his forehead and pointed at the door. “Hold on Isaac, I’ll call you back.” Leslie said and ended the call. “Where are you going?” “Out with the men.” “The men, huh?” Leslie raised a brow and folded his arm. “Am I forgetting something?” “My heat starts next week and I haven’t made preparations because of work and the baby. I need help Azrael, help me before the men.” Leslie demanded and sighed. It was the mood swings again. “Do you have a list apart from what I must always bring?” Leslie pointed at the list and picked a highlighter. I grabbed it and read. “Anything else?” I asked and Leslie nodded. Leslie dropped the paper and gazed at me. He exhaled and poked his cheek with his tongue. “Will the men

A year has passed, and we’ve experienced wonderful and painful things together, but we’re fine and strong.Valentin proposed to Lucas, and they had a fast court wedding in April. No one knew but Ancel, and you can’t blame him. He found out the day they wedded.We knew because I didn’t hear from Lucas for two weeks, but his social media flooded with honeymoon and his past lovers called me to confirm if it was true.We’re happy for them but everyone in the family except Konrad hopes they don’t have a child as Lucas’ fertility period ends.There would be so much awkwardness every time Leslie and I saw that child and the age gap. Dominant omegas fertilities are just too long.There were bad times. Isaac and Sarah separated for a few months because of their careers and a client of Isaac that was Sarah’s childhood friend.It wouldn’t be my concern, but Isaac was my brother, and Lucas cried. They were a power-couple so watching them almost throw everything because of another woman; it was pa

AzraelLeslie’s second pregnancy journey was fierce. Tougher than the duration he was pregnant with Nikolaus.Week ten.Leslie eats mostly fruits because his nausea is heavy. He gets fatigued over minimum effort and sleeps for long durations. He cries a lot, but he bounces back after the mood swings.He craves churros with weird dips and ketchup a lot.Week seventeen.Leslie’s a little underweight but his bump is growing now. The doctor gave us a supplementary diet we’re strictly following. Leslie hates the taste, but Carson Campbell, Isaac and Lucas are great helps with improving the diet.Leslie’s nausea is getting better but his mood swings aren’t better.Week twenty-four.We’re going to go for a gender test but mother insists on a gender reveal party so the results will be mailed to her.

LeslieThe daily life of a marrying a spoilt rich international treasure.I wake up by five every morning for devotion and head to the kitchen. I enter the kitchen and start preparing school lunch for my kid.Ida joins me in the kitchen around six to make breakfast for everyone except I package Azrael’s breakfast because he wakes up when the driver takes Niko to school.Azrael wakes up around ten and eats breakfast late if he eats at all. On days Azrael wakes up early, I don’t work at home.I continue to unwrap wedding gifts from family, friends and fans, sorting things to give out and donate with the servants until I get exhausted.Our habits didn’t change after marriage, and we’ve been married for five months, but things were different in a good way. Pleasant.At least until now.I bolted to the bathroom and crouched in front of the toilet, gripped the toilet seat and hurled in the bowl. My stomach twisted in pain, but gentle pats soothed my churning stomach.“Is that better?” Azrae

LeslieThe soft strands of the brush glided carefully around my cheeks and stopped. I opened my eyes and stared at the mirror.The makeup artist did a terrific job making the makeup subtle. My hair was ready, cut shorter than the original length and gelled.Ancel opened the door, surveying seriously with a small note in his hand. He stayed at me and pulled out a white rose from the vase in the room.He placed the rose in my pocket and patted it.“Perfect but I liked the white suit better.”“You were going to make me wear a long veil if I wore that and this is my second marriage.”“You and Azrael would match but the blue isn’t bad. Soft and stable and I get to see you marry.” Ancel said and the door opened.Dad entered with a bouquet of hydrangeas and minor flowers. I recognised the flowers from mom’s garden and dad handed it to me.“Ancel, could you give us a minute?” Dad asked and Ancel winked.“Sure thing pops, have to make sure the set’s perfect.” Ancel said and left the room with

The doorbell rang, and I opened it. Kaiyo stood there with a pout on his face and glared at me. I spread my arms across the door and leaned back a little.“You’re not here to dump tomato juice on me again, are you?” I asked, and he blushed.I smiled and lowered my arms.“I came to apologise, so listen closely, because I won’t say it again.” He puffed his chest and placed his hand on his hip. “I’m sorry for splashing juice on you and saying embarrassing things.”“Stay away from Mitsuki. You don’t deserve him. He’s mine.” I teased, and he turned red.“S-stop teasing me. Y-you be kissing my feet. I came here today.”I patted his head and smiled. “Do you want ice-cream? Sundae?”“What flavour?” He shook his head and wiped his mouth. “I’m not a dog.”He acted like Becca’s, one of Isaac’s twins in her teenage stage that doesn’t want to be smouldered by adults. It’s difficult to find innocence and pure naivety at his age these days.Everything I wouldn’t describe Lucas, me or Oliver as.“Com

They were all waiting, so I raised my hand to reveal the wedding ring.“Yes!!!” Everyone cheered.Some high-fives and hugged me.“Congratulations!” Isaac said and grinned. “You’re marrying my brother again. Welcome to the family.”We laughed at the joke, and I nudged Isaac.“I can’t wait to tell everyone, and it was all thanks to me.” Ancel gloated and pulled out his phone.“Hold on there cowboy, Lucas might have already beat you to it. He was the first person Azrael called to while we were in Japan.”“I’m still going to spice it up more. I still have a picture of the ring.” Ancel said and started typing.“Thank you.” I whispered to Ancel. “For helping me with the ring.”Ancel nudged me and smiled. “Anytime. Patronise my company to decorate your wedding. I’ll give a discount even though your fiancée is one of the wealthiest living things in the world.”“Of course. Just set an appointment for next week.”Ancel was genuinely happy, but his ey

No sleep for me if he was awake, talking my ears out on all the places he wanted to go.I never want him to cry or feel lonely when I’m around.“I can’t wait to take a lot of pictures.” Leslie said, and I sighed.“I’ve missed hot spring baths.”The train stopped, and we headed for one of the popular temples in Kyoto – Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine.We took a lot of pictures with a temple guide giving the history of the temple. I didn’t believe in any gods, unlike my parents and Leslie is Christian, so I couldn’t understand his fascination with temples.“Should we buy a charm or two? Maybe a souvenir?” Leslie asked.“Kid, these god statures aren’t for decorations and children touch things they shouldn’t. Let’s stick with the papers that won’t leave t
