After a one-night stand I had three kids novel Chapter 92

I didn’t get much sleep after that, and when I cleaned up so I could make the twins breakfast, I was hoping to talk to Knight about what was happening with Midnight wanting to attack him, but he was already gone. Ayrie told me he said good morning to the two of them and told them he would be back late tonight.

“You seem upset,” Mr. Knightly says when the twins finish their breakfast.

They ran back to the room to play with their new toys. Ayrie even took my camera to make Knight another video. The one they made for him has gone viral. Thanks to their very generous grandfather, we’re going to have the entire morning free.

“It’s personal,” I shrug as I clean up. “Do you always stay in places like this?”

“Yes, this is one of our many safe houses. I travel a lot, and I’m sure Knight has told you how difficult it is for us to trust public services.”

“Repeatedly.” I nod and let out a heavy sigh. “I didn’t know you were also targeted.”

“This is actually the first time in a while where I haven’t been. It’s a bit of a vacation for me. Is that the issue? You’re upset about the threats.”

“I should be,” I laugh. “But no.”

“I see. Is there anything I can help with?” he smirks.

“I’m having trouble controlling myself,” I admit.

“No, you’re not,” he grins. “You’re a natural. It’s all instinct. Follow them, they’ll never steer your wrong,”

“Yeah, well, when you want to rip your mate’s throat out mid–makeout sesh, it kind of ruins the mood. Bad enough for him to get up and leave without even telling you he’ll be home late tonight,” I scoff.

“Oh,” he laughs. I feel my face heat up, and I know I’m bright red now. “Have not mated fully?”

“We have two kids,” I remind him. It only makes him laugh more.

“Nathan can be dense. It happens when you’ve got the weight of an alpha on your shoulders. You miss the small details. Tell me what happens.”

“I don’t know if I’m comfortable talking to you about this,” I snort very unlady–like.

“Of course. Why don’t I go play with the twins, and you can call on one of your werewolf girlfriends?” he smirks.

“You’re an asshole,” I laugh feeling even more embarrassed.

“Come on. I’m not asking for the details. I have a similar predicament. We can

compare notes.” he waves me off. “Surely, your wolf has something to say about this.”

“Okay. Why don’t I start from the beginning?” I sit down across from him.

“That would be best,” he nods, all signs of teasing gone.

“Midnight is very chill for the most part. She seems happy just letting me do my thing.”

“That’s very good considering her type of beast,” he says reassuringly.

“Okay,” I let out a sigh of relief. “I have dreams of her past lives. Is that normal?”

“For you, yes,” he nods. “Your wolf is a protector. She shows you these things to sort of record them into your muscle memory. It’s why training with me has been going spectacularly. She’s teaching you as well.”

“I love that. Thank you,” I say to both of them. He bows his head and urges me to continue. “This is the first time Midnight has lived past twenty–three.”

“Is that right?” he takes a deep breath and sits back. “Any particular reason?”

“She always dies?” I say because how else do you not live past twenty–three? His eyes spark red, and he glares at me. “She always gets killed. Wars, assassinations, it’s violent almost every single time.”

“Yes, that would be common for a guardian as powerful as she.” he nods.

“I think that because of that, when I get excited, she wants to hurt Knight.”

“In any of your visions, has Midnight ever been mated before?”

“Never,” I say sadly. “There was one time when she met her mate, and he killed her. On the spot. She didn’t even know his name.”

His annoyed expression softens like it did when Garrett Rizen attacked us. I can tell it bothers him. He gets up and comes to sit down next to me, taking my hand in his. He reaches out to pull on the collar of my t–shirt to look at my scar.

“I’m going to tell you something, and I’want it to stay between the two of us,” he whispers. “Yes?”
