Pregnant With Alpha’s Genius Twins

Chapter 277

“Come on, little boys,” I call to Ian and Alvin as I stand up. “Come inside with me.”

“What!” Alvin protests, running forward a little. “But there might be fireflies – the first ones of the season! We were going to –“

“Nope!” I say, putting my hand out towards them. “Inside!”

“Whyyyy,” Ian whines, dragging his feet and letting his head fall backward.

I bare my teeth at them a little, annoyed at their protest, every bit the mother wolf scolding her pups. When they see my expression my boys sigh but hurry their footsteps, eager to fall in line with my commands. I pull them close to either side of me when they climb the stairs to the deck, giving each a kiss on the head.

Then, I glance down at Bridgette, whose eyes are fixed on Rafe, still coming across the lawn, his hands in his pockets, his expression sorrowful and contemplative.

“Hey, Rafe!” I call too-cheerfully to him.

He sighs and then raises his eyes to mine. “Hey, Evelyn,” he says, without heart in it. Then his eyes move to Bridgette in the chair next to me and he stops walking, just staring at her.

“Inside,” I whisper to the boys, turning them towards the house.

Alvin looks up at me, eager, but Ian pulls away a little bit, wanting to stay and hear what they’ll say to each other.

“Come on,” I hiss to Ian, tugging him towards the house, laughing lightly. As we go, I see Bridgette standing up from her chair and moving towards Rafe in the growing dark.

“Mommm,” Ian whines when I close the kitchen door behind us. “I wanted to hear them!”

“You two!” I laugh, looking between my boys, who seem to be growing taller by the day. “How did I raise such gossips?”

“Because you love it toooo,” Alvin laughs, wrapping his arms around me.

“Well, that’s true,” I murmur, a little chagrined at myself. He’s right – I only have myself to blame. I, too, am dying to hear those two they say to each other in the next few minutes. I sigh and look over my shoulder towards the door, wondering if I could maybe crack it open a little bit…

“Should we?” Alvin whispers to Ian and I snap my attention back to the two of them.
