Six years later -

Emma and I were sitting outside in the garden watching our little ones tussle. We often visited each other.
"How you keep up with the three of them, I'll never know. I'm having a hard enough time with Arya." She said.
"It's difficult sometimes, but it's also fun," I said looking at my 6-year-old Aiden and 2 -year-old twins. Rose and Leo. It was a pleasant surprise when I discovered I was carrying twins, few years after we had Aiden.
The kids looked up at us and yelped, they were cute little pups. Both Aiden and Rose had inherited Lucian's green eyes and dark hair. Leo was more like me with his hazel eyes and brown hair. Arya had caught Aiden by the ear while Rose and Leo tussled in the mud.
"Aiden, sweetie, Mama's not going to come to your rescue every time the girls pick on you." I laughed.
"I can't believe he lets her get away with that. He outweighs her by quite a bit." Emma said.
"He is a little gentleman, he just plays along" I smiled as Arya managed to topple Aiden over.
"Momma we are hungry, " Aiden said as they ran towards me.
"Sure sweety, let's get cleaned up then we'll have some food." I picked up the muddied twins as they squirmed in my arms.

The kids loved to visit Katherine in the kitchens. She would let them play with the dough and I had a hard time bathing them again and again. I walked in with Emma and the kids.
"Hey! Olivia, what are you doing here?" I asked a heavily pregnant Olivia who was hogging a huge batch of French fries.
"Avoiding Zaiden," she huffed," he has made my life miserable. I keep telling him I am pregnant, not sick! I can walk around without falling." She grumbled and stuffed a few fries in her mouth. "And I am fat yet I am eating fries coz I love them," she burst into tears.
Katherine mouthed at me," she is very sensitive."
"Awww dear, now don't cry. You are still beautiful and all that fat would be gone in no time." I stifled a laugh and hugged her patting her head. She was hormonal and such outbursts were normal.
"You know when I was pregnant with twins, I was prescribed bed rest and Lucian wouldn't let me even walk to the bathroom alone. That's how these men act when their mates are pregnant. I am sure Zaiden means no harm."
"Really?" She looked at me through sobs.
"Yes, now cheer up. Would you like some blueberry pancakes?"
Her face lit up.
"Yes please."
I grinned.
Even the kids were enthusiastic about the pancakes and soon the smell of vanilla and cream wafted in the kitchen. They were unusually quiet and stuffing themselves with blueberry pancakes.
"Thanks, Katherine, for feeding these munchkins," I smiled at Katherine.
"Oh! Never mind. I love feeding them." She smiled.
We talked for some time about random stuff and the pack gossip. Olivia was due to give birth any time soon. Zaiden was doing his residency in the city hospital and used to help Dr Armand back in the pack hospital.
"Come on kids, let's go back. Dad would be home soon." I called out to them.
They cheered when I mentioned Lucian.
In a whisper, I told my three children. "OK, children, let's play a game. Let's hide and see how long it takes Daddy to find us."
One yap of agreement and they all nodded happily. Then, the pups took off. I watched for a moment, as Aiden hid behind a bush in the garden. Leo and Rose stood behind a tree trunk thinking it was thick enough to hide them, it wasn't.
It was a warm summer day. I felt Lucian watching us from the top of a mound. I smiled as he slunk stealthily and grabbed Aiden, "Found you!"
"That was too soon I want to hide again," Aiden grumbled.
Then he went to the tree and grabbed the twins. They squealed with delight.
"I found all of you, Daddy wins!"
That led to another round of jumping and rolling in the grass. Tired from running and romping, we carried them in. Soon pups curled up in their beds and we were finally alone. Lucian suddenly grabbed me and carried me to our bedroom.
"Hey, what are you doing?" I asked laughing.
"I caught you, weren't we playing hide and seek?"
"That was over long back and I wasn't playing."
"I can play whenever I want." He said stubbornly.
Knocking me down, on the bed we rolled as he tickled me.
"Will you stop it now!" I said laughing.
I looked up into green depts and he nuzzled my neck. He traced my lips with his fingers, then his mouth moved down to my breast, my hands twined in his hair as I felt his throbbing cock in the space between their bodies.
"The children!"
"Are asleep and will be for a while. Do you know what your smell does to me? Besides, I want to make up for a lost time. I was away the whole day. I want to fuck you until you can't remember your name."
I pushed at him, playfully, laughing. He slid down my body and parted my thighs, not taking his eyes off me.
" May I?" His voice was full of lust.
I smiled at him. "You'd better not wake them."
"Look who's talking. You are very noisy when we make love." He said pushing his hands under my shirt.
"That's preposterous! am not noisy! " I protested.
"Let's check it out," he said mischievously and pulled off my shirt exposing my breasts.
He caught one of my breasts in his mouth and sucked on it. A loud moan escaped from my throat.
He lowered his hand until it disappeared in the waistband of my track pants and started rubbing my clit. The sensation was overwhelming. His mouth and fingers did wonders, and I was soon panting and screaming with ecstasy.
He captured my lips to slow down my moans.
"Damm! I never thought after three kids you would remain so randy."
"Only because of you, woman." He said kissing down my neck.
I began moaning under the assault of his tongue on my mark. He picked up his head briefly. "Love you, babe."
"I love you too Lucian, " I replied.
There were no serious threats to us in all these years. In time, Aiden would grow up and do what he was born to do. And while the children grew up, we as parents would always keep watching over them to ensure that they'll always be safe and protected from harm.
