The Luna and her Quadruplet Pups by Jane Above Story

Chapter 54

Chapter 54 – Date Night

Jane

I don’t know what I’m going to do about Ethan. The idea of finally having my family together is incredible, but the idea of living with him again is only too daunting. Eric is complete ly against the idea, and spent most of the night trying to talk me out of it, however Linda seemed unusually supportive of the scheme.

Of course there are three opinions I don’t need to bother asking. I know my pups would be beyond thrilled to live as one big family with Paisley and Ethan. That’s actually what worries me most – I can easily see the logic in helping Paisley adjust to the change in circumstances, but what happens when my other pups become attached to Ethan? How are they going to handle losing their father after only just finding him?

I don’t even know if his offer is real. I want to believe he really feels guilty for the terrible wrongs he committed in the past, but would that remorse be enough to make him let go of his only daughter? What if he’s having a paternity test con ducted at this very moment? My friend at the lab is on the look out for any samples from Ethan and Paisley, but that’s no guarantee. All my lies are coming back to haunt me, and I’m beginning to worry I won’t be able to keep up much longer.

When my phone rings the morning after Ethan and I had our reckoning, I’m not surprised to see his name flashing across the screen. I answer with slight hesitation, “Hello?”

“Good morning Janey.” His warm voice sends a shiver down my spine as I remember the way he touched me last

night, at how easily I unraveled in his arms.

“Hello Ethan.” I greet him, making my voice as even as possible. Assuming he’s reaching out about his proposal, I of fer, “I haven’t made a decision about moving in yet I need
