Chapter 71 DANE What is it ? What happened ? The idea of my children being in danger ignited instant rage in me .

I would shred anything or anyone who dared to threaten them .

Or their mother .

I was out of my chair so fast , the twins froze and looked at met with identical expressions of terror on their faces .

Seraphina darted behind her brother .

Aurora pressed a hand over her mouth , clearly hiding a laugh .

Your guards arent ? I growled .

I was still unsettled from the moment Id thought the twins in danger .

Trajan is too steady for me to call paranoid , she said with a Chapter 71 2/5 smile as she opened her arms and both twins climbed into her lap .

But hes good at masking fear with humor .
