Chapter 161

BOOK 2: CHAPTER 31

Let’s take a trip down to our beloved Pack. It’s been a minute, hasn’t it?

Darius’s POV

“Daddy, you know this plan of yours is all wrong. We’re supposed to be planning our next trip to town. Florida won’t wait for us. My daughter, Layla grumbled repeatedly from behind me. I’d learned a lot of things ever since I had my twins but I never learned just how to be patient enough for my daughter. She was just too much sometimes.

“I told you that this trip is important,” I answered, almost growling.

“What trip is more important than our trip? It’s our time of the year, Daddy. This weekend is supposed to be the best day of ray life,”

I groaned loudly. She never knew how to take no for an answer or maybe it was just because I never told her no.

“When I get back, we’ll go on this ‘important trip together. How about this?”

She gave her infamous side–eye. “Why are you trying to sound sarcastic? That’s so not you,”

I closed my eyes and almost yelled at myself. “Listen, when I say this trip is important, it’s really important,”

“Tell us then, what’s it all about? We’re curious,” she pressed further, pointing at herself and her twin brother, Liam. Liam was silently sitting on one of the couches in my office. He hadn’t said a word since they both walked in.

‘Don’t include me in your stupidity, Layla, you’re the only one curious about the trip. I’m not,

He answered.

She suddenly spanked the back of his head and rolled her eyes.

“Shut up or I’ll shut you up, she threatened.

I shook my head. I wasn’t ready for the unstoppable drama that would unfold after that so I turned my back to them. I don’t know what Liam said to her but she suddenly screamed.

“What?” I asked in a loud voice.

“NOTHING! She yelled back.

Dear heavens! Give me strength.

I tried to arrange some things I would need on this trip while I waited for Angela to join me so we could leave.

You both are staying with your grandma till we get back and don’t go stressing her out, understood?” I said firmly. They knew that tone too well. I was done with being patient with them for the day.
