Chapter 46


    Daddy This, Daddy That


    We were sitting around the breakfast table. It was the first breakfast with all four of us, and it was filling to see,


    ‘| hope we can have breakfast like this every morning,’ Vee said. | didn’t add anything to her words. It couldn’t be like this every


    morning. It was our first breakfast, and | hope the children will always


    remember this.


    “| can’t believe we are having breakfast with Daddy,” Sra squealed. She was truly a happy pill. | smiled at her, as her brother


    and dad did. | nced at Ellis who was too content, and when our gaze met, my heart raced in my chest. | hated that he had that


    effect on me. Don''t get used to this, sir, | said in my head as | distracted myself from his stare by drinking my delicious chocte.


    Amoan of satisfaction escaped my lips, and a low growl reverberated from Ellis’ chest. | felt my cheeks burn in embarrassment.


    Why did | let out such a scious sound? And why did he react like that to it?


    | served Cayden his food while Ellis did the same to Sra. As we reached for the pancakes, our hands brushed, his fingers


    lingered on my skin, and | felt goosebumps appear on my skin. We both retracted at the same time as though we had been


    torched by a burning yet pleasant fire.


    Go ahead,” | offered quietly. He shook his head and gestured for him to get first. Nheless, he insisted. | ignored him and


    reached for the bacon, however, we reached for it at once. This was seriously so nerve-wracking, especially with our children


    here, watching us confused. They didn’t understand what was going on. They were happy that their father was here with them,


    and | had to get it together. | closed my eyes momentarily. | was calming my breath, and | could hear the steady yet loud beating


    of his heart. Lias, his

    alpha Lycan, was close. He was connecting with Vee. The two were... not as awkward as their human counterpart.


    Mommy, you’re being weird. Dad, can you please put a pancake on my te?” Sra asked, looking up at Ellis. He nodded but


    didn’t immediately give her the food.


    linhaled and said slowly.


    I''ll get a pancake, and then you''ll reach for the eggs. Is that okay?” | asked slowly.


    Fine with me,”


    We quickly put the food, but as we started to eat his phone rang. My heart constricted. Why did it? | wondered if he already told


    his mate about the children. How would Charlotte react? Would she even ept them as Ellis’ children? Did he lie about his


    whereabouts to her? | was somber at all the questions swirling in my head. Vee retreated to the back of my mind, hurt.

    ‘It''s just Jace,” Ellis’ voice was gentle. His gaze made me uneasy. Did he feel my emotions? | hope not, | did a fine job covering


    them.


    Answer him,”


    | didn’t want my voice to give anything away. He nodded and


    answered.


    “Jace, I’m busy,”


    #1


    ‘Where are you? The concierge says you left at Dawn,” | heard Jace


    say.


    “I''m with Love and my kids,” he answered with a smile. It was


    genuine and kind.


    Oh, enjoy. And send my regards,” Jace beamed. I’m with my kids felt right hearing it from his lips.


    “I will,” he ended the call and focused on us.


    I''d like to say the food was as good as the presentation on the pancake board, but it wasn’t. The pancakes were just awful, and


    the eggs were salty. The bacon was overcooked. | tried to force myself to eat, but it was too horrible, and no one could say a


    thing about the


    food.


    Luis came to the dining room. He washed up and was in a brighter


    mood.


    Good Morning, amazing family... “he greeted the twins with a kiss,


    and his gazended on Ellis, “... And you,” he scowled, and | gave him a ynice look.


    He sat down and picked a pancake,” This looks amazing,” hemented as he took a bite. We watched him as he savored the


    taste but stopped chewing. | gave him a napkin.


    “This tastes dreadful,” he coughed, drinking the juice. His face


    contorted to a pained one as he swallowed the juice.


    “|

    How is the juice even worse,” Luis grimaced.


    She made it,” Ellis and Cayden are quick to sell out Sra.


    And the pancakes?”


    “Daddy and Cay made them,” Sra says with an evil glint in her eyes


    “| was just following what he was telling me,” Cayden pointed at Ellis.


    “| said a teaspoon of salt, not half of the salt cer, and | told you not to overmix,” Ellis retorted. Cayden is just shocked by all


    this.


    “| followed your instruction, and ok... But you made the eggs!”


    It was the sweetest argument I’ve ever witnessed in my entire life, and I''ve seen several of those.


    Okay. I''ll make fresh breakfast, but get them ready for school,” Luis offered as he went to the kitchen.


    Ellis insisted on helping with preparing the kids for school, and he took Cayden while | prepared Sra. My little girl was


    comining that she wanted her daddy to help get ready, not me... The same dad who only appearedst week to them. |


    wanted to say but didn’t. Now everything was Daddy thing, Daddy that.
