Max paused halfway through, pushing the door open.

Xander shot him a glance, looking a bit dumbfounded.

He could relate; if Isabel had been pregnant and hadn't told him, he wouldn't have reacted any better.

"Don't worry, I haven't said anything. I promised to help you take care of all three babies," Isabel said as she moved to open the door. But as she reached for the handle, she realized the door was already open, a crack from the outside. Before she could pull it open, Max stepped inside.

Isabel's mouth opened, words catching in her throat. After a few seconds, she turned and gave Yvette a look that practically said, "Good luck dealing with this yourself."

Yvette, at a loss for words, gave her a puzzled look. "Why are you looking at me like that-"

But before she could finish, she saw Max in the doorway.

Her eyes went wide, and her jaw nearly hit the floor.

Max slid his hands into his pockets and walked over to the bedside, his gaze landing on Yvette's belly.

No wonder Yvette had been putting on a bit of weight lately. That once-flat plain had turned into a little hill. So, she was pregnant-and if he'd heard right earlier, with triplets! "What're you looking at? None of this has anything to do with you!" Yvette snapped, clutching the blanket over her belly, looking at Max as if he might try to snatch her babies. Max raised an eyebrow at her stomach. "They're mine."

"They are not!" Yvette denied it immediately.

"Then whose are they?" Max was certain those babies were his.

Caught off guard, Yvette glanced over at Isabel.

A drop of sweat trickled down Isabel's forehead as she thought, I'd love to help you out here, but come on, I'm a woman-there's no way he'd believe they're mine! "Anyway, they're not yours!" Yvette insisted.

Max laughed, looking infuriatingly cheerful.

Yvette's face darkened at his grin. "What're you laughing at? I said it has nothing to do with you!"

Perched on the windowsill, Max looked back at her, still smiling. "In the Hunts, triplets are kind of a tradition. If you don't believe me, you can ask Xander."

Xander nodded at Isabel, who looked back at him, utterly bewildered. She thought Max asked her something. Why are you nodding at me?
