6 weeks later....
Theyre absolutely perfect, Carli gushes, Harper snuggled in her arms. Parker..... she whines.
Nope. No maam. You had me get the snip snip, and Im not reversing it.
Dont you want another girl? Carli pushes out her bottom l*p.
Dont do it, dad. Its a trap, Rosie, their 8-year-old daughter, whispers in his ear.
Dont worry, princess. Im the strongest, remember? Your mother cant win against me.
Carli growls hearing that. Parker blows her a k**s. I ended up being great friends with Carli and I really admire Parker. He has this laid-back authority about him that is comforting. Like, you know he can get s**t done, but hes humble about it. Mitchel and Mark could totally take him on if they wanted to with their magic, but they even have a healthy respect for the man.
Carli is a hot mess. Shes so reckless and has a mouth on her with no filter, but shes real. You always know exactly where you stand with her. If she has an issue with you, you know it. If she doesnt like something, she doesnt m**n and complain about it, she fixes it. Its reassuring to have a friend that you dont have to wonder what theyre thinking about or if theyre being passive aggressive. She is who she is and if you dont like it, she doesnt care.
Lilly is cooing at Harley over Matts shoulder, Cole, their youngest, in her arms. Cole threw a huge fit when Lilly tried to hold the babies. He was the baby in the family before and doesnt like sharing any of his attention with anyone.
Where are the guys? Simone asked, looking around our suite.
Mitchel is in bed taking a nap. He couldnt sleep last night, thinking the roof was going to cave in, or the walls were going to explode, and many other crazy things while they were sleeping in their own room for the first time. Mark is-
Right here, he says, walking in through the front door, my latte in his hand. He hands it to me, I lean my head all the way back as he bends down, kissing me. Cinnamon dolce latte with almond milk.
Youre the best, I smiled.
No, I am, Mitchel yawns, walking in from the hallway, Why didnt you wake me? I didnt know everyone was here.
You needed sleep, I laughed at him. He comes and plops down beside me on the couch. He held his hands out to Carli, wanting Harper, but Carli just growled at him, turning so our baby was out of his reach.
Uncle Mitch, why did you think the walls were going to explode? Carl asked, Matt and Lillys oldest.
Because you never know! I was watching the craziest accidents on YouTube and what if the pipes get clogged in the wall and burst, making the entire wall come down?
What pipes? Carl tilts his head.
I dont know. Just, pipes! Buildings have pipes in the walls, right?
Carl giggled, Youre weird, Uncle Mitch.
The weirdest, I laughed with the adorable little boy.
Simones daughter, Karina, and Carlis son, Maurice, or Reese for short, are sitting together at the kitchen table, coloring in a book that Reese brought for Karina. Vincent is lingering in the doorway, going from glaring at Reese to smiling lovingly at his daughter. Carli and Simone both insist that theyre mates, which I get the feeling Vincent doesnt approve of.
Are you guys worried about them being seers? Lilly asked us, gaping at Harleys purple-hued eyes.
Only Harley is. Harper has the same gray eyes as their daddies, I told them.
Does that mean Harper is going to be a were-witch too? Carli asked.
I thought we decided to go with the term witch-wolves, Simone giggled.
I liked snarl-itches, Parker laughs.
Sounds like a Pokemon! Carl says excitedly.NovelDrama.Org owns all content.
Yes, I shook my head at their outrageous nicknames for my mates, Harper will be a hybrid. She already has a strong supply from sharing a womb with her sister for 4 and a half months.
Mark went around the couch, taking Harper from Carli, earning him a snarl. My little were-witch princess, he cooed at her, ignoring Carli.
Uncle Mark, I like snarlitch, Carl pulled on Marks pant leg.
You can call Mitch that, he smirked down at the little boy.
Mitchel ends up going back to sleep on the couch beside me. The poor man is dead on his feet. Having 2 daughters freaked both these men out. They thought the babies would be boys, since thats all that their family ever seems to have. When we found out they were both girls, they went into overdrive trying to make the suite babyproof, doing multiple background checks on our employees, screening shady looking guests they thought could be a potential threat to their daughters.
Mark has recovered for the most part from his overprotective tendencies, but Mitchel is taking a bit longer. He will get there. Hes been through a lot, and had this irrational fear of boys doing to his daughters what he did to other mens daughters his entire life. These poor girls are never going to have boyfriends. Mitchel is already talking about homeschooling, and the girls are just 5 days old.
Mama has moved into Amandas house, and comes to visit often. She is enjoying her first taste of freedom too. My father is still in Lady Delilahs dungeon, awaiting a trial under the council that I am now a part of, along with Micah, representing the witch faction. We will not be a part of the trial due to our involvement, but they tried to tell me that the final say in what happens would be left to me.
After talking to my Mama, we decided to give the entire decision to Micah. Micah is planning on stripping him of his ability to use magic, then turning him over to the human authorities. Parker can make sure he stays in prison the rest of his life, suffering like a normal human. He led a life full of horrible crimes. If Micah thinks it is the right punishment, I will back his decision.
Vivian and Micah have been helping tremendously with the babies. Vivian and Mama were with me while they were being born, Vivian keeping her sons in line during the ordeal, and Micah dotes on his granddaughters, always popping in to steal one or both of them. I dont mind. It gives me a chance to catch up on sleep.
Life is pretty much perfect. I won my independence, fought hard to achieve it, and in the process gained a lot of things I never expected. I learned who I was, the truth about where I came from. I gained two mates, who love me so much, willing to give me the entire world, along with our daughters. They are my entire world. I will never regret my hardships or my past, because they are what led me to them. My mates.
