Kids from One Alpha

Chapter 90: Will Things be Different?

Serena had fallen silent. Logan watched the trees thin out into open space again. They were back on the main, paved road. The car stopped bouncing around like it had been on the dirt road. From the corner of his eye, he saw Serena relax slightly, but she was facing away from him.

It was a few more minutes before he heard a sound come from her. It was a sniffle, like she was crying. Slowing the car down, Logan pulled over so he could look at her better. She wasn’t actively crying, but her eyes were red, and she sniffled again. “Serena what’s wrong?” he asked, putting the car in park. Serena shook her head. “Y–you’re not going to be different around them, are you?” she asked in a quiet voice. Logan’s heart nearly broke in his chest! He couldn’t believe Serena would even think that. Instinctively, he wanted to get angry, but he could see how upset she really was, so he remained calm. “No, I’m not going to be different around them,” he assured. Serena nodded. “I don’t think I could stand that,” she said in a soft whisper, bringing a hand to her heart. “They love you so much and if…one of my biggest fears was you pulling away from them.”

Logan shook his head again, his heart clenching in his chest. “That won’t happen,” he said. “I promise that won’t happen. I love them too. I loved them before I knew all of this.” He held his arms out. Slowly, Serena turned to look at him. She nodded. “Thank you,” she said. “You can be mad at me all you want, you can rage at me, yell at me, whatever, but please don’t be mad at them. None of this is their fault.” Logan sighed.

“I’m not about to blame them for anything or hold anything against them,” he said. “They are good kids, and honestly, I couldn’t have asked for anyone to raise them any better in my absence.”

Serena gave a weak smile. “You’re going to be a great dad, Logan,” she said. “Just… not to my kids…our kids.” Logan looked out the windshield. It bothered him to know he’d never actually be a father to the twins. He found that he wanted to be their father more than he wanted to be the father to Holly’s unborn child! It was clearer to him now. His concerns about being a father had nothing to do with the baby and everything to do with who the mother was. When he thought about it like that, he looked back at Serena.

Chapter 90. Will Things be Different? “If things were different…” he trialed off. What could he possible say? If things were different, he’d want to be a family with her and the twins? If things were different, he’d want to be her mate?

for the sake of the twins. It was necessary for them to be partners in parenting, and that meant they had to be on friendly terms. He didn’t want to push Serena too much, though. He
