Pregnant and Dumped By The Alpha novel Chapter 43

"Err, thanks," I said awkwardly, averting my eyes to window.

"Anytime . . . and you're more than amazing Sophia," he whispered, placing a soft gentle kiss on my cheeks. Heat rushed to my cheeks, and I knew I looked as red as a tomato right now.

"Daddy kissed Momma! Daddy kissed Momma!" the twins chanted. Damn, I forgot they were here.

"Okay, that's enough guys. Now, let's go to the beach!" grinned Chase, which showed that small dimple of his on his right cheek.

I cleared my throat, looking away from him. "Let's have some fun!"

I slipped off my heels, holding it in my hands while Chase carried a picnic basket I didn't even know he had. Kaden gripped Charis' small hands to protect her, but she didn't mind at all.

"Why isn't there nobody here?" I frowned, looking around the very empty and peaceful beach.

"This is my private beach, I bought it off the previous owner two years ago because he was moving to France."

"Wow, you're loaded!" I joked, poking his ribs.

"Haha, Miss-I-Have-So-Many-Houses-All-Over-The-World," he rolled his eyes, trying to look annoyed, but the small smile which played on his lips gave it away.

"Whatever," I stuck my tongue out at him.

He chuckled, shaking his head at my childishness. It felt good being young again, because sometimes it felt like I was double my age. I guess it was just because sometimes I hardly ever got to have fun and act like my age. I felt so carefree right now: like all the burdens had been lifted off of my shoulders, making my heart feel so light again. I didn't have to carry my sack of problems around with me today, and I would be lying if I said that I didn't need a day off my chaotic everyday life!

We found a place to sit under some palm trees, which wasn't that far away from the sea. Chase unpacked all the food and we spent the next hour or so feeding with each other and trying to throw food in each others' mouthes, which was how we all ended up wearing half the food. But it made me laugh like I hadn't in years.

"You should laugh more, it's beautiful," Chase said once the twins were playing by the sea. I wanted to sunbathe for a bit before going in, so we were laying in the sun while keeping an eye on them to make sure they were safe. I'd go muy loca without those two troublemakers in my life!

"Thanks," I muttered, slipping on my white ray bans.

During a moment of silence, I debated in my head whether to confront him or not about the twins and I moving back to New York. I was scared of his reaction to be honest, and I didn't want this day to be ruined for all of us.
