Chapter 0321
We all step inside, and I bring up the rear, casting one glance around at the blizzard.
It’s getting worse…
“Do you have the groceries and everything you need for the coming week?” I ask Zaia, especially if me and the kids are going to be here. She’ll need a lot more…
She looks at me before glancing out the window.
“If all of you end up having to stay for longer, then I would need to do some shopping… I don’t think we can drive in this blizzard,” she remarks.
“Let me know what you need. I’ll go later and get whatever we need.” I offer.
She smiles, one that does something to me and nods.
“Thanks.” She holds out her hand for my coat and I take it off slowly, shaking off the snow before holding it out to her.
Our
eyes meet as she takes it, our hands brush and I hear her breath hitch as sharp electrifying sparks rush through us.
“Thanks,” I say smoothly as she jerks her hand away. She nods, her heart thumping.
I turn away, walking past her and heading the way the children have gone.
The table is laden with hot chocolate for the children, coffee for both Zaia and met and there’s a tray full of cakes. The fire is roaring in the hearth and after the cold. outside, it’s a pleasant welcome.
Zion switches the TV on as I sit down, putting the news on, and Zaia passes me at towel. I cock a brow before she motions with her gorgeous eyes at my hair.
“All flights have been cancelled,” Zaia says, staring at the screen as the news. reporter reports on the storm.
“Are they?” Sia asks, her eyes wide, as Xander frowns.
“No, they aren’t. I’m going to go with Daddy,” he states unhappily.
“I’m afraid even I can’t go anywhere unless the weather changes drastically and I don’t think that’s going to happen,” I reply, trying to calm him down by ruffling
his hair.
He frowns deeply. “Then what about my presents if we can’t go by Christmas?”

he asks gloomily.
“Don’t worry, you’ll get them,” I say, but it gets me thinking. I look at the large tree that stands in the corner of the room.
“I’m sure we can figure something out to make Christmas memorable if that happens,” Zaia says as she cups his face, tugging on his cheeks.
He smiles slightly and nods. “Yes, and that means I can have both Mommy and Daddy together for Christmas!”
Zaia and I look at one another before she looks away first.
Well, I think I like the sound of that…
‘I’ll pop down to town and grab some gifts and groceries.‘ I say to Zaia through the mind link, it feels strange using it with her, but at the same time, it feels so right.
‘Are you sure? I mean, I could go instead. You had a long flight.‘ She replies, concern clear in those gorgeous lavender–coloured eyes.
‘I don’t get tired so fast.‘ I respond arrogantly. ‘I’m not old yet.”
‘I can see that.‘ She replies, a smile tugging at the corner of her lips as her eyes dip down before she looks away quickly.
I can’t help but smirk as I cock a brow.
‘Oh yeah?‘
A faint blush tints her creamy skin, and she tucks a strand of her hair behind her
ear.
‘Yes.‘ She doesn’t look at me as she says that one word, but it really does make me feel good.
“Then let’s make this a Christmas the kids won’t forget.‘
Or us…
She looks over at me and smiles, nodding.
