C + L – Epilogue
••• Colton’s POV •••
“Fuck,” I panted and slummed back to the bed from the doggy-style position. After so many years together, Lucas could still fuck me into oblivion.
“Good?” he smirked as he perched himself on one elbow and looked at me wickedly.
His question and smirk made me blush. Damn him for always being able to make me feel shy.
“Mommy, Daddy!” We heard the voices of little girls and constant knocking on the door.
“Open it,” I told him as I stretched my body lazily on the bed and covered myself with a blanket.
He put on his shorts and opened the door. When the door opened, two cute little girls barged in, jumped onto the bed and bounced around.
“Mommy, did Daddy bully you again?” my baby girl, Summer, asked.
“No,” I shook my head, sat up, and pulled Summer into my arms.
“But we heard Mommy screaming. Daddy must be bullying Mommy again!” my other little princess, Winter, said with a serious expression.
They heard me? Goddess, how loud was I when being fucked by my mate?
My cheeks heated up from embarrassment, and I mindlinked my mate while glaring at him, “It’s your fault!”
He looked at me from the doorway and replied through the mindlink, “I’m sorry. It was my fault for fucking you too great that you couldn’t help but scream out.”
I blushed even harder. Dammit! He always apologized when being blamed but teased me at the same time, too!
“Summer, Winter, why are you calling Daddy ‘Mommy’?” Two little boys appeared and jumped to the bed, too, joining their siblings.
It had been three years since we rescued the rogues from the Reckless Banes Pack, and I and my pups nearly died. As expected, Alpha Tobias feared Alpha Zane, so he released all the rogues and promised not to capture and enslave rogues anymore.
“Bourbon, we called Mommy ‘Mommy’ because he’s our Mommy,” Summer said innocently.
“Summer, you should call your brother by his name,” Lucas sighed helplessly.
“But Mommy said brothers’ names are Bourbon and Whiskey,” Summer said stubbornly in her cute, childish voice.
I laughed out loud. When I woke up three years ago, and knew that I had two daughters and two sons. I named the girls ‘Summer’ and ‘Winter’ and the boys ‘Bourbon’ and ‘Whiskey’. I thought it was cute, but Lucas was against the names Bourbon and Whiskey. He named them Raphael and Gabriel, yet we still called them Bourbon and Whiskey.
Since I was also a man, Lucas told them to call me Daddy, while they should call him Dad, but my cute Lycanthropes insisted on calling me Mommy. I didn’t mind it, though. As long as my pups were happy, I would let them call me Mommy.
“Dad, Daddy, we’ve promised to go to the park with Eva and Evan. We’ll be late if you don’t get ready now,” Whiskey, aka Raphael, was the most serious out of the quadruplets, and his words reminded me that we indeed had a playdate with our niece and nephew.
“Let Mommy and Daddy get ready first, okay?” I told them and rubbed each of their heads dotingly.
“Okay, Mommy. Grandma and Grandpa are already here. We’ll play with them first,” Winter said, and the quadruplets left the room.
“Colton, you should start calling our sons by their names,” Lucas said as we showered.
“But Bourbon and Whiskey sound cute,” I stubbornly said like Summer.
“They are little boys; you shouldn’t name them after liquor,” Lucas sighed helplessly.
“Okay, I’ll let Summer and Winter know they should call their brothers Raphael and Gabriel in front of outsiders,” I compromised.
We finished getting ready quickly and went downstairs to see Mom, Dad, Aleena, Kyson, Eva, and Evan already arrived.
Today, we were going to have a picnic in the park, and the picnic baskets were already prepared by the Omegas.
“Let’s go. My stomach has been grumbling in complaint since someone decided to let us wait while he was being a bottom,” Kyson smirked.
I glared at him and saw that all the children had walked ahead of us with their grandma and grandpa. I would’ve smacked him if he said those kinds of things in front of the children.
We walked to the park leisurely, with the children chattering happily amongst themselves.
I looked at my quadruplets with a loving gaze. I loved them so much, and when I was told that Summer and Winter were Lycanthropes, I was delighted. My little princesses would be as strong as their auntie, the Alpha Queen.
We reached the park and chose a spot to sit, and had a picnic. The Omegas had done great in preparing the food. There were tons of them, and I quickly prepared a plate for each of my pups while Lucas helped to feed them.
“Mommy,” Summer, who was the closest and most clingy to me, called me with her mouth full of bread.
“Yes, Princess? What is it?” I asked her and wiped away the breadcrumbs around her tiny mouth.
She turned around and reached for something. When she turned back toward me, she had a sandwich in her tiny hands. “This is for you, Mommy.”
“Awww… Thank you, Sweetheart.” Summer was always considerate to the people around her, especially to me, her Mommy. She knew I hadn’t had breakfast yet and gave me her sandwich. What a kind little Angel…
“Don’t worry about Mommy, okay? Mommy will eat later. You have to finish all your food if you want to be as powerful as your Auntie,” I told her.
Summer was a fan of her Aunt, Aleena. Hearing she could become as powerful as Aleena if she finished her food, her eyes lighted up, and she began chomping all the food on her plate.
Her cute action brought a smile to my face.
“Mommy, will I also become like Auntie if I finish my food?” Winter, who had been quietly eating her food slowly, asked.
“Of course. Mommy’s two little Angels are Lycanthropes like Auntie Aleena. If you finish all your food, including the vegetables, you will grow to be powerful,” I said with a smile.
Winter nodded and followed her sister’s action.
“So, you are using my name to get them to eat their veggies?” Aleena teased me.
“My sister is the most powerful female Alpha; there is nothing wrong with my words,” I smiled. I was really proud of Aleena, and to use her name for the sake of my daughters getting stronger was a natural thing for me to do.
“Well, I’m flattered, Brother,” she laughed.
We finished our meals, and the six children began playing with each other. They ran around the park, but always within our eyesight.
I looked at my quadruplets. They looked kinda like two pairs of twins instead of quadruplets. Summer and Whiskey, aka Raphael, looked so much alike with dark hair and darker skin, just like Lucas. Winter and Bourbon, aka Gabriel, had fair skin and blonde hair, just like me. It was somewhat bewildering.
The sun shone brightly today, and the wind blew gently around us. The laughter of the children gave me a sense of serenity.
I leaned against my mate, and he circled an arm around my shoulders.
Mom, Dad, Aleena, and Kyson were also in the same position as us, being held lovingly by their mates.
I sighed in contentment. Twenty-five years… Never had I imagined that my Mom and sis were still alive twenty-five years ago. And yet here I was with a complete family and having a mate who doted on me so much and a best friend cum brother-in-law who loved to tease me but would do anything to help.
Not forgetting the quadruplets… Two Lycan princesses and two werewolves princes.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
I thought nothing could be more perfect than this moment as I looked at the scene of the children playing, Mom and Dad being affectionate toward each other, and Aleena being loved by Kyson.
“Colton,” my mate called me.
“Hmm?” I hummed.
“I love you,” he said as he kissed my forehead.
I was wrong. Having my mate told me he loves me was even more perfect than the harmonious scene in front of me.
“I love you too,” I told him. “Always and forever,” I added through the mindlinked, and we smiled lovingly at each other.
