Sassy Angel’s Secret Sin

Chapter 54 – A Good Excuse (Anj‘s POV) “Explain yourself!” Anya pulled me to their private office, leaving Sky in the visitors‘ lounge just outside their office, and closed the door behind her. Dylan was sitting on the swivel chair, giving me a sullen look every time our eyes met. “Shhh!” I hushed her, afraid that the triplets would hear us. “I didn‘t have a choice yesterday. I had to ask him, but I didn‘t expect he‘ll come today.” Anya pulled a face, crossing her arms in her chest. “Are you telling us he’s not the dad?” I turned my back on her before she could see the looks on my face. She knew me very well and knowing whether I was lying or not was one of the things she was an expert at. I made myself busy by making Sky a coffee. “Yet you allowed him to kiss you,” Dylan growled at me. “As if she has a choice,” Anya giggled. “You look ready to pounce at Sky anytime. Let‘s just look at the bright side, though. The tough moment of Angela Perry‘s life is over, and she could probably just kill the daddy in their lives.” 

I turned my head at Anya, nodding in agreement and smiling with the hope I would have the courage to bring that news to them. I haven‘t told them yet about the birthday plans my girls made with Sky and what excuses I would make this time so that it would not happen. 

“Still going to work?” Anya asked as I walked toward the door. “Yep. I have to pay the hired daddy,” I answered in a low tone, ignored Dylan again, and exited their office. 

Sky was sitting in the middle of the couch, with Selene in his arms, sleeping with her head buried in his neck, Leyanne leaning on his arm, and Lyra Helene resting her head on his thigh. “A little help?” He said in a hushed tone, smiling sheepishly at me as he asked for help. “Oh!” I exclaimed, putting the cup of coffee on the table, and then calmly got Selene from him and laid her on a vacant couch across from him. I carried Leyanne next and laid her on the half part of the couch where Selene was sleeping. “Let Lyra Helene stay here,” he said when he noticed me looking around where to put her.” God, what are you feeding these children?” he chuckled softly as he stretched his arms. 

I smiled sheepishly at him, giving him the coffee. “I can‘t thank you enough, sky.” I sat beside him, inhaling his intoxicating scent despite the sweat from playing almost half the day with the children. 

“Hmm,” He moaned as he sipped coffee. “How did you do this? This is how I want my coffee, but no one seemed to get the right way of making this.” Elenita taught me well, I wanted to say, but I could only smile at him. “Sky, about the children‘s birthday,” I paused, hating the butterflies in my stomach. “You don‘t have to do it.”
