Chapter 57

As Hazel stepped into the room, the sight she was greeted with was completely. unexpected. The space, once defined by the practicality of a sofa and television, had been transformed into a makeshift tent. A bedspread, artfully erected, stood. as the centerpiece, adorned with scattered toys that hinted at an impromptu camping adventure or some imaginative game that had unfolded in her absence. Despite the vibrant chaos of scattered toys, an unexpected tranquility enveloped the room. The trio; Ethan, Daisy, and Liam, lay sound asleep, blissfully unaware of the world around them. Ethan, sprawled on the sofa, served as an inadvertent camp counselor and bed, with Daisy sprawled across his chest and Liam, the little adventurer, curled up on his legs, Liam was hugging Ethan’s legs in his sleep, for little boy just loved the man’s legs.

The scene was undeniably adorable, a revelation that caught Hazel off guard and prompted a genuine burst of laughter. It was a side of Ethan Wild she hadn’t anticipated the man who could turn a room into a playground and, more significantly, share moments of joy with children. These aren’t just any children Hazel, they were his children, a part of her mind told her.

However, even in his slumber, Ethan’s instincts kicked in. With an almost instinctive movement, he grabbed unto and secured Daisy, to himself preventing her from tumbling to the floor. The silent tableau spoke volumes. about the unexpected tenderness within Ethan, a scene that left Hazel both amused and contemplative.

“Ethan,” Hazel called out softly, and his eyes snapped open almost immediately.

“Oh,” he muttered, blinking in the soft light filtering through the room.

“Pretty wild party you guys had,” Hazel remarked, a light tease in her tone. Ethan chuckled, glancing at the still–sleeping kids.

“Come on, papa bear,” Hazel called lightly, attempting to pry Liam off Ethan’s legs. Liam grumbled and clung tighter.

“Liam, wake up,” she coaxed gently.

“Mama,” Liam mumbled, still deeply immersed in his dreams.

“Yes, baby. Come to bed now,” she whispered, managing to lift him gently and carry him to his bed. Ethan stood carefully with a still–sleeping Daisy, cradling her in his arms with evident affection. The tugged at Hazel’s emotions–a sleepy
