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 .

Tristan squared up with me like he was a man ten times the size of the four year old he was .

Nothing ! We just havent seen our mommy in forever and Evander said she was in here , so we came to see her .

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

Its nerve wracking , isnt it ? she asked as I sat down again .

Then she sighed .

At least Im no longer the only one who will be so paranoid all the time .

Your guards arent ? I growled .

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

My reaction was pure instinct , deep and so profound I couldnt have stopped myself if Id tried .

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 .

Evander … maybe .

But hes good at masking fear with humor .

I grunted .

Her bodyguard hardly spoke , and her cousin was always guarding the children , even though they were under the protection of Blue Ridge , now .

Aurora addressed the twins .

What are you two doing here ? Youre supposed to be in bed .
