Chapter 19

After we've all had our breakfast, I started trying to clear the table. When I was interrupted by Tristen.

"Let me get that, you and the girls go get ready for the day. I plan on showing y'all around some more." He says calmly

"Okay, but I never thanked you last night for being so understanding towards Trenton. He really is a great dad and I just never wanted him to feel as if he wasn't good enough for the girls." I say getting a little sad

He stopped and moved closer to me and rubbed my arm with one hand and pulled my chin up with the other. "I'd never try to take the spot of their father. Trenton had his faults and how things have worked out with all of us might be a shit show but I can tell that the girls adore him and he them. I'm sorry if I made anything uncomfortable." He said

"You didn't and you've been so amazing. I'm just a little, well a lot overwhelmed and confused. Someone is after mates and apparently, I'm a mate and so is Trenton. Then throw in these weird unexplainable feelings I have towards you and the fact that I no longer feel anything about Trenton or the fact he cheated… I just it's so odd." I trail off while looking away from him.

He didn't respond with words.

He leaned in and took my lips to his own. I was stunned at first then started slowly moving mine in rhythm with his.

"Ewewewwww! Mom! You're not supposed to be kissing the nice Mister!!" I hear Trish squealing from the other side of the kitchen.

I was too embarrassed to respond.

I went and got Mia from the pack n play and went to the room with my girls so we could get ready for the day.

Why did he kiss me in response to my freak out? Probably to get me to stop rambling.

I was so thankful that he literally covered everything we would ever need. There is clothes for all of us. Perfect sizes. Baby supplies and all toiletries. I start tearing up just thinking about how much thought and effort he put into making sure we felt at home.

I bring the girls into their bathroom and put Trish and Lizzie in the bath while I bathed Mia in the large sink. He even had the bathing flower. You know, the big soft flower you put in the sink for babies.

Just so much effort.

Once all the girls are dried and dressed we start on fixing hair. I soon as I started on Trish's hair, it sounded like a banshee was in here. The door burst open with a half man half wolf looking Tristen ready to attack.

Me and the girls notches looked at him a little frightened.

"Oh, I… I thought something was wrong. I will.. I will be out in the living area if you need me." He said looking red from head to toe as he left.

As soon as the door is shut me and Trish burst out laughing. Bless it. He thought she was actually being harmed.

"I didn't mean to scare him, Mommy. But did you see how funny looking he looked?" She asked

"It's okay baby. He's always going to protect us." I say knowing 100 percent, without a doubt that Tristen would always protect us.

Once hair is all fixed Lizzie and Trish open the door heading to see Tristen while I grab the diaper bag & put Mia on my hip and head out to join them.

"I'm sorry if we scared you. Trish is tender headed and brushing her hair is always a painful process." I say

He looks to Trish "It's okay. I was just worried but we'll have to look into getting her some of that set angle stuff so it doesn't bug her as bad." He says

I shift awkwardly not knowing what to say and look at Mia then back to Tristen.

"So, what's on the agenda today?" I ask

"I got lots planned. But it's a surprise. So, we should head to the elevator." He says while smirking

Let's find out what's in store for today. I'm hoping it's not stressful like this past week. I don't think I could handle.
