And Then There Were Four (Lilith Carrie)

Chapter 120: Sexual Reunions

Ivy.

Almost two weeks had passed since I had woken up, and I was excited with the preparations for today’s bonfire. Over the past two weeks, I had taken slow steps toward getting my

strength back, and spending as much time with my children as possible. Tonight, though, was going to be a huge step for me. I’d be putting myself back out into the light of society.

The event was massive, from what James was explaining. He had even called Kate and my mother, ushering them to come up for the celebration. To come up, and celebrate the twins’, and our family. Of course, there was no way either of them would pass that up.

So, although the twins’ birthday had already happened, we were still going to do something small. Something that I could be part of made me excited, considering I had already missed out on so much.

Not to mention James wanted to give the pack an event to show that we wanted them involved in our children’s lives. All of it was rather magical in a way, but completely overlooked in the moment as I found myself more entertained watching James run around his room, freaking out over preparations.

“James, will you calm down? You’re literally freaking out over nothing. Everything is set up and perfect. I don’t know why you’re overreacting.”

This was the third time this morning I had told James to calm down. He literally was making a fuss over everything, and I wasn’t sure why.

“Ivy, my stress levels are literally through the roof right now. How the fuck am I supposed to calm down when everything is so chaotic at the moment?” he replied with furrowed brows and a dramatic expression.

“Uh, because you’re overreacting, I said, breaking out into a

fit of laughter. “Do you have an OCD outbreak every time we plan something?”

James turned to me with a shocked expression, his mouth wide and his eyes glaring. It took everything in me not to laugh, but before he could say anything, Hale stepped into the room with his hands in his front pockets, leaning against the door frame.

“I see that James is in one of his moods again.”

“Fuck off, Hale,” James snapped with irritation. “You can’t make this shit look half as good.||

“Is that right?” He hummed as his eyes slid to me. “Entertainment for the day, then?”

“Something like that?” I laughed. “Did you need something?”

“I hoped that I might be able to steal you for a moment.”

The smirk that quickly lined his face made me think it could have been sexual in nature, and considering I hadn’t had a rendezvous with them in the sheets since I had awoke, there was no way I was going to pass up the opportunity.

Standing from the chair I was sitting in, playfully bit on my lips as I fluttered my eyelashes, sauntering towards him. “Sounds like something fun.”

“Not exactly,” he laughed, shaking his head. “I was just hoping that you might be able to step into my office with me.”

Of course, it wasn’t what I thought.
