And Then There Were Four (Lilith Carrie)

Chapter 91

Chapter 91: Playing with Fire

Talon.

I had always been unsure about Ivy being pregnant, but the moment Hale told us that Ivy was having twins through the link, I couldn’t be happier. It was a moment I had known was coming, but now that it was here, I was more than nervous.

Was going to be a good dad? Would they end up liking me? “It’s good news, brother,” Damian said, slapping me on the shoulder with a smile. “Yeah, it is,” I replied hesitantly. “Damian, can I ask you something?”

“What’s that?” He said as he moved around the nursery, checking everything the contractors were doing.

“Do you remember that old story that mother used to tell us about the great Bjorn?”

 

Damian stopped in his tracks, looking over his shoulder at me with a smile. “Yeah, what about it? Have old fairy tales been crossing your mind lately?”

“Shut up,” I groaned, rolling my eyes. “I’m being serious.” “So was I. I thought James was the sentimental one, and Hale was the nerdy one.”

Damian’s laughter and comment caught me off guard, but as I narrowed my gaze, he knew I was being serious. I didn’t bring things up unless it was important, and right now, I needed him to focus.

“What about it, Talon?” he finally sighed as he returned to what he was doing.

“What if the story was more than a story? What if it was real history?” I asked, trying to remember the details of the story and how our mother used to tell it.

“Don’t be ridiculous, Talon. It’s a kids’ story. Now focus, we have to get some of this s**t done,” he replied, completely brushing off what I was telling him.

Go figure, after all, Damian was a logical man, and if there wasn’t proof to back something up, he didn’t pay it attention. I wouldn’t consider that entirely good for an Alpha to think that way, but he had his brothers to help him.

We were stronger because of our unique unity. “Fair enough. I’ll go down and see if the b***h has left yet.”

Nodding his head at me, he kept himself preoccupied as I made my way down the stairs only to come face to face with James, Hale, and Ivy walking through the front door.

Quickly, I rushed her and swept her off her feet, twirling her around in my arms while she laughed. “A boy and a girl.”

“Yes, yes,” she laughed. “Put me down, Talon, or you’re going to make me sick.”

“Sorry,” I said as I placed her on her feet and pulled her in, crashing my lips against hers. “I can’t help it. Seeing you pregnant is so damn tempting.”

“Yeah, well, that will have to wait, brother,” Hale cut in, causing me to look at him.
