Aidan Lucas went to the master bedroom with a heart full of questions, pushing the door open.
Even though Samuel Mckinley had already told him that the young master had taken two little kids into the master bedroom,
the scene he saw inside still caused Aidan Lucas's dark pupils to suddenly constrict.
On the big bed, the woman he longed for cradled three kids, nestled at the head of the bed.
In her arms was Ben Lucas, who always appeared indifferent and dismissive in front of him.
Ben Lucas, who disliked being touched, clung to a chubby girl, a spitting image of Lily.
The chubby girl's pudgy legs were held by another little boy with delicate features.
They seemed to be in a tiff, as the chubby legs tried to kick away the little boy, but he held them even tighter.
And the woman leaning against the headboard seemed to have fallen asleep from waiting too long and being too tired last night.
Her head rested on the pillow, holding three adorable munchkins in her arms.
