Zeke held the ladies' hands and left. “Did you have fun, Dawnie?”

Dawn grinned. “Yes, but it's still not enough.”

She turned around and shouted at the playboy, “Save me, handsome! I don't want to leave with him. Save me!”

Anybody could be brave as long as they had a lady by their side, including a coward like the playboy.

“Listen closely, you oaf. I don't care where you are, I will find you, and I will make sure you never step into this city ever again!”

Did that guy just call Zeke an oaf? Nancy couldn't hold back her laughter, so she chuckled.

Zeke was annoyed once more. I'm Great Marshal, not your personal bodyguard. You ladies just had to have fun at my expense, huh?

For a moment, Zeke thought that ladies could be a handful.

After that annoying little episode, Zeke finally took them back, but it was already four in the morning.

Lacey was already awake and making a delicious meal for the ladies. However, breakfast was not the first thing Nancy and Dawn did when they came in. Instead, they went to the bed and teased Missy, who was sleeping.


When Lacey gave birth to Missy, Zeke wasn't by her side, for he was still out fighting a war. Because of that, Nancy and Dawn were the ones who raised the child, and they loved Missy as much, if not more, than her own parents.

It had been a long time since they met Missy, so of course they missed her. Either of them could come alone on this business trip, but they decided to come together so they could see Missy.

The ladies kept holding her and pinching her face, which eventually woke her up. When Missy opened her eyes and saw the ladies, she quickly sat up.

“Nancy! Dawn! You're here! I've missed you. I want a hug!”

Nancy and Dawn fought to hug the girl. “Did you miss me, Missy?”

“Of course.”

“How much?”

“A lot!”

“Aw, I need you to be more specific.”

“I miss you so much that I never want to say goodbye again!”

Zeke was confused why Missy was calling the ladies by their names, so he looked at Lacey. “I thought they are supposed to be her aunts, so why is she calling them by their names?”

Amused, Lacey explained, “They asked her to do that. They said that it would make them sound younger.”

Zeke was half amused, half annoyed. They even fooled around with Missy.

It didn't take long for the ladies to finish their meal, but even when they were eating, they didn't stop playing with Missy.

Missy loved them as well, so she kept asking them to hug her.

After the meal, Lacey said, “It's still some hours away before dawn. You girls should catch some sleep. Get into your best form to meet your business partner.”
