Caleb was working a case of his own. Turns out that female partner he had—I was right to hate that bitch—was shady as fuck and was involved in some fucked up shit with the medical center I found them at.

“Listen, I’m not sorry I saved your Omega.” Jerry shrugs.

“It’s because I’m amazing, isn’t it?” I flutter my eyes.

“Definitely,” he chuckles.

“How are my brother and my sister best friends with my Omega?” Caleb grumbles.

“Don’t be upset.” I grin, wrapping my arms around him the best I can. “You’re still my bedroom hero. You save me every day,” I say, wiggling my eyebrows suggestively.

His face softens. “I fucking love you.” He kisses me, and I moan, cursing when slick coats my thighs.

Everyone around us groans. “Stop it, you two,” Duchess chastises as she comes into the room. “I don’t think Savannah’s parents want to smell how turned on she is.”

“I don’t wanna smell how turned on she is,” Jerry grumbles as he leaves the room.

“I do.” Caleb grins. “I wanna taste it too.”

“Gross,” Duchess scoffs, putting her hands over her ears and turning around, leaving the way she came. “I’m going to hang out with Carter. He’s cooler than all you weirdos.”

A few months ago, Carter was taken out of his home and put into CPS. A neighbor went to check on him when they didn’t see the parents come or go from their apartment in days.

Turns out they took the winnings from some fucking scratch ticket and left Carter home alone.

When Jake told me what happened, I called Caleb and we went down to the department's office and fought to have him placed under our care.

With Caleb’s pull and the influence Jake had in Carter's life, he was calling our place home only a few days later.

Having him here has been nothing short of amazing. He fits right in. The guys adore him, he’s helpful with Athena, and he’s my little buddy. He’s a pretty big fan of Thor, too. I think Thor likes him even more than me at this point.

Between Carter, Thor and Bowley Pintips, they make quite the trio.

I hate that Carter had to go through so much at such a young age, but I’m glad he’s here with us now. Safe and happy. That little boy won’t know what it feels like to go hungry anymore and will be reminded how much he is loved every single day.

Laughing, I let Leroy change me into new panties. “Thank you, Daddy,” I murmur when he stands.

“Fucking hell, Little Monster. You're going to kill me, you know that?”

I may have been overusing the daddy nickname since I’ve become pregnant.What? I get amazing sex out of it, I’m not sorry at all.

“Okay, let’s go.” I take a deep breath.

“You got this, baby,” Leroy encourages. “They’re good people.”

Nodding, I head out into the backyard. When I see them sitting at the picnic table, I come to a stop.

There, a woman dressed in an elegant summer dress with long blonde hair sits with Athena on her lap. She’s smiling and laughing, talking to her with the baby voice we all use.

The man sitting next to her looks the polar opposite of her. He has slicked-back black hair and is dressed in a dress shirt and slacks.

Seeing them with Athena, the love in their eyes that they have for her, makes my heart clench.

Something flashes in my mind, almost like a vision. It’s them, only they look like a younger version of themselves.

It’s like I’m looking up at them, as they smile down at me. “Come on, Anna,” the blond woman says. “The fireflies are out.”

“I got the jars!” The man shouts, a big smile on his face.
