“How are you feeling this morning?” Alec asked as I was getting dressed. Alec kept true to his word and I think I got maybe two hours of sleep last night.
“Well rested.” I wasn’t happy he won but damn if it wasn’t enjoyable.
The humor that came from Alec made me roll my eyes at him. “If you say so.”
“Where did the rope come from?” I asked. Since we were going shopping, I didn’t want to wear anything too much but the snow was still falling. I would need to wear my boots so I opted for skinny jeans and a nice fitted long sleeve shirt. There was a thin layer of make up on and my hair was left down and straight.
“Been saving it for the right time.” Alec muttered as my phone rang.
“You’re up early.” I said as I answered the call.
“Yeah, Jasper needed to do something so I got up. What are you doing today?” Emmy asked.
“Going shopping for a dress with Penny. Want to come?”
“Oh! Could I?” Emmy sounded excited.
“Of course you can. Get dressed and get over here.”
“Okay!” Emmy hung up on me as Adalynn started crying.
“The roads are going to be slick so be careful.” Alec stood up and started buckling his pants.
“I’m going to take the jeep. What are you doing to do today?” I asked as I walked out of our room and into Adalynn’s room. She was sitting up, looking at the door. “Good morning!” I said in a sweet voice. Adalynn raised her hands up to me.
Picking her up, she laid her head on my shoulder for a few seconds until she heard her dad. “Someone is happy this morning.”
Adalynn sat up and reached for her dad. “Seriously?” Rolling my eyes, I handed her over to a very happy dad.
“Daddy loves you.” Alec whispered in her ear as went to the closet.
“Then daddy can change her and get her dressed.” I said slightly annoyed and with a melted happy heart.
“Mommy is just sad she is second in daddy’s life now.” Alec said in a baby voice.
“Can you say that again so I can record your baby voice for the warriors you have to go work with today?” I pulled out my phone and took a picture.
“Only if I can record all the sounds you made last night… oh wait! I had you too numb to speak.” Alec smirked at me as he finished dressing Adalynn.
As I opened my mouth to respond, the door bell rang. “Ass.” I muttered as I walked off. Alec’s laughed echoed across the halls.
“Hey!” I said as I let Vivian inside.
“It’s slick out there!” Vivian was dressed head to toe in so much gear that I even wondered if she was a wolf.
“I bet! Glad you made it here okay. I’m not sure what kids you will have today.”
“That’s fine!”
“She hasn’t had breakfast yet but Alec is changing her and getting her dressed.” I said as he walked around the corner.
“She’s ready.” Alec said as he carried her in front of him. Adalynn got a huge smile on her face as she saw Vivian. Clapping her hands together, she reached for her.
