That’s when the two women from the living room walked in from the gaggle of kids

in the living room. The buxom brunette looked frazzled.

“It’s your turn, Alpha. I tap out,” she said.

Carter chuckled. “Auntie training is hard, huh?” he teased her.

The small blonde with rainbow highlights grinned. “I’m passing with flying colors,

but yeah, Carter, it’s your turn; we girls have things to do,” she insisted.

Briar looked to Beck, “Do you mind helping with the snacks and kiddos while we get

the hot chocolate going? Lil Miss here is staying with us, so you just have to watch

the movie and hand out food.”

Beck eyed her for a moment and nodded.

“Who wants popcorn!” Carter yelled, and the kids came streaming in.

Carter filled bowls with popcorn for them while Beck fell into handing out cookies.

The kids filed out to take their spots in the living room, leaving us girls alone. Briar

pulled out a huge pot, baby still on her hip, and set it on the stove. Mazzie got the

milk out, and Lana got the cocoa powder and sugar, as she asked for it, and turned

on the stove. She passed the baby to Lana, who struck up a conversation with the

“Stop Ads, you’ve done so much for me, there is no way I wouldn’t return the favor,

the best I could,” I tried to minimize the attention she put on me.

“Shut up, Misty, and take some credit for once,” she insisted.

I narrowed my eyes at her and swore at her in Spanish. She chuckled.

“Oh, that’s hot,” the small blonde said. “Can we take her home?” she asked Mazzie.

“She’s fucking the guy she came here with, can’t you use your nose and read the

room? Give it a break, Lana,” she said, rolling her eyes.

I choked on my spit. Briar patted my back before she started adding ingredients to

the milk she had poured and heated, giving me a you have tea to spill look.

“Can’t hide shit from wolves, Misty, damn fucking noses can’t help being in

everyones business,” Briar said, giving Lana a look.

“What’s the harm in trying?” Lana said unbothered.

“No harm no foul,” I decided to ease the tension, just realizing as Mazzie hooked

her arm around Lana and pulled her tight against her that they were a couple.

Briar was ladling the hot chocolate into mugs when the doorbell rang. She stilled,

moved the pot off the burner, and rushed out. We followed her as Carter answered

the door

“What are you doing here?” He asked the woman at the door.

Three kids rushed him, he crouched to greet them, and I stilled the scenarios of

who this could be running wild in my head.

“Is that his ex?” I whispered to Lana and Mazzie.

“Sister,” Mazzie said quietly. Relief flooded me.

“I invited her to include the kids tonight,” Briar said, from a few steps behind him,

her eyes darting to the woman in the doorway. The movie played on all the kids

oblivious but Beck watched from his place on the couch, always the observant

“There is a lot I need to apologize for…” the woman started.
