Pregnant With Alpha’s Genius Twins

#Chapter 62 – Soft Paw, Hard Paw

“I’m hoooome!,” Amelia sings as she breezes through the door. It’s late, nearly 10 o’clock. She stops, suddenly, in the foyer, looking around at her house. It’s an absolute wreck. “Oh my god,” she whispers. “What happened.”

There are toys, clothes, nerf darts and discarded plastic weapons all over the floor, all over the stairs – is that silly string on the banister?

Victor comes around the corner of the living room, in pajamas of all things. Amelia stares at him, a little horrified. She doesn’t think she’s seen Victor in pajamas outside of the bedroom…maybe ever.

“Hey, babe,” Victor says, smiling at her and running a hand through his hair which also has a little silly-string in it. “Welcome home!”

“Hi Amelia,” Ian says, peeking out from behind his father. But Ian doesn’t smile. Alvin peeks his head out too and waves cheerfully.

“Hi, guys,” Amelia says slowly. “What are you all doing here? I thought…”

“Evelyn asked if they could stay over,” Victor says, absently palming Ian’s head and mussing his hair.

“Oh,” Amelia says, raising her eyebrows and smirking. “Are she and Edgar having a…special night?”

“Yeah, Amelia,” Ian says, smiling at her wickedly. “Come on in.”

Amelia hesitates. “I think I’ll just go upstairs…I’m really tired.”

Alvin hurries over to her and takes her hand, smiling up at her with sweet brown eyes. “No, Amelia! Come watch with us! We miss you!”

She smiles down at him, warmed by his welcome. She always liked this one better, anyway. “Okay,” she says, taking a deep breath. This is not what she had planned for the evening but…whatever. “Just let me go get changed.”
