Chapter Ten

“This leg goes in this hole, right,” Caden asked Linc. Yeo watched Caden dress Linc, and struggled not to laugh.

“Daddy play with bun bun,” Linc answered.

“We’ll play with Huckleberry as soon as I figure out these pants,” Caden said.

“That’s a shirt,” Yeo said, giving up and laughing.

“Well, that explains a few things,” Caden said, chuckling. “Okay, buddy. Let’s try this again.”

“Are you going to write today?” Yeo watched his alpha, eyes warming as they ran over his body. He wasn’t dying of a man-cold anymore, so he could fully appreciate how lucky he was. In fact, he had appreciated it twice last night and once this morning.

“Eww,” Summer said, coming to stand next to him. “Stop eyeing Dad like a piece of meat.” She had taken to calling Caden dad. It had shocked the hell out of everyone. Yeo would always be her big brother, but she told them that she wanted a new dad and Caden was her choice.

“He’s my alpha to admire as I so choose,” Yeo said, nose in the air.

Caden cleared his throat. “I’ll be writing today, but I’m going to take Summer to school first, then run by Grey’s house. I thought I’d bring Linc with so he can see the other bunnies.”

“Sounds like a plan,” Yeo said. “I’ll be at the bookstore, but if you need me to watch Linc, just let me know.”

Caden grinned at him. “We’re good. I’m still his favorite.”

“I can’t blame him,” Yeo said. “You’re my favorite too.”

“Again, may I say eww,” Summer said. “You two are so mushy.” She hid a half-smile. The little snot knew they were adorable together.

“Are you ready for rehearsal tonight?” Yeo said, bouncing in place in excitement. His little sister was auditioning for a school play. Their parents had thought theatre was plebian and a waste of time. Their words, not his.

“Yes. You can’t come, okay? I don’t want you to embarrass me,” Summer said.

“We won’t embarrass you. We’ll just peek in and watch from the back,” Caden said. “No banners, Yeo.” Yeo wilted. He had the best banner ever. “Save it for opening night, angel.” Yeo grinned. That was his honey bear.

“Horrible,” Summer mumbled, leaving the room. “You two are horrible.”

Yeo kissed Summer and Linc goodbye, then kissed his alpha goodbye. “I love you, Caden,” he said. “I’ll make us lunch today, okay?”

“Perfect,” Caden said and Yeo kissed him again.

“Guys, come on,” Summer said, laughing. “Caden isn’t going off to war.”

“Fine,” Yeo said and stomped to the bookstore.

Amy laughed at his pouty face. “You are ridiculous. Hey, before you go to your office, I had an idea.”

“Tell me,” Yeo said, lifting himself to sit on the register counter.

“Every time the town has a festival, local businesses are encouraged to participate. I was thinking we could have a booth at the spring festival in April.”

“I like it,” he said. “What could we sell?”

“We could do like a matchmaking game and match people to a new author or genre,” Amy said. “We could also have sign-up sheets for our book clubs.”

“That’s a wonderful idea,” he said with a smile. “Summer has been talking about starting a comic book club. She can’t draw for shit, but she loves writing the stories.”

“Does she not like the young adult book club?” Amy shook her head. “Damn. We have a lot of book clubs.”

“We do have a lot,” Yeo agreed. “Summer loves comic books more than anything in the world, though she does like the young adult group.” Yeo grinned. “It’s my favorite one. We’re reading Dumplin’ right now.”
