Three months have passed since their wedding. Ansel took Elisa to the gynecologist, and they found the gender of their twins. They were going to have two girls. "How did you know?" Ansel asked her on the way home. "Know what?" she looked at him with confusion. "How did you know you were pregnant with girls? You gave me girls' names when you announced your pregnancy back then," Ansel asked. "I had no idea. I made those names up to shock you. They were girl names by pure coincidence," Elisa giggled. "Well, your wish came true. So now I have to deal with three hormonal teenage girls in my house. God help me," Ansel let out an exaggerated sigh. Elisa wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him on the cheek. "Oh, stop being grumpy. It'll be great," she said. Ansel smiled. "I know." Things were great since they passed their dark times. With both Mike and Gerald being gone, there were no more threats left in their lives.

"Can you not scream so loud? You'll scare all the birds away," the boy yawned, then glared at Audre. She looked at him intently. He was tall, about six feet three or more, with a tan and muscular body. He had a messy blonde fade haircut that perfectly framed his face with high cheekbones and a prominent jaw. His beautiful clear blue eyes glinted with mischief. He reminded her of ken dolls and that kind of annoyed her for some reason. "What the hell are you doing here?" Audre pointed her finger at him. Why is he acting like it was normal for him to be here? "I should ask you the same thing! Why are you in my cabin?" He narrowed his eyes. "Your cabin? This is the girls' cabin," Audre looked at him with confusion. He seemed pretty confident for someone who is intruding, she thought. "No, it's not," he said. "I'm Aleks, by the way. Who are you supposed to be?" "Audre. Mr. Elliot told me to go to cabin number 7," she said. Aleks lau

Audre walked away as fast as she could. That Aleks guy was getting on her nerves. She couldn't tell whether he was constantly joking or was an actual pervert. Either way, her guts told her to stay away from him and he was nothing but trouble. He was probably the kind of boy her father warned her against. After a long day at the orientation, Audre was finally able to retreat to her cabin. She found two other girls sitting on their assigned beds. "Hi, I'm Kim," the girl with short black hair said. "You must be the new girl," she said. "Yes. I'm Audre. Have you been working here long?" Audre asked. "This is my third year. It's fun, and I could use the extra cash. This is Kimmy," she said and pointed at the other girl who had long brown hair she wore in a high ponytail. "Kim and Kimmy?" Audre laughed. "Yup. It gets confusing. Good thing we look nothing alike." Kimmy laughed and shook her head. "It's nice to meet you guys. I look fo

"Aleks, let me go." Audre's voice was so small Aleks could barely hear it. Not that he was listening anyway. The sweet smell of her skin was making him dizzy. He buried his hand in her hair and kissed her again. She had such soft curls they reminded him of clouds. He always loved it so much! He remembered how he used to pick on her by pulling her hair. He smiled against her lips as the memory came rushing back. She used to get so mad and threw tantrums, then ran to the teacher to complain about him. He wondered if Audre would be mad at him when she remembered that happening. She trembled in his arms, and he felt bad for flinging himself at this sweet and innocent girl like a wild beast. But his feeling of remorse didn't last long. He slipped his hand inside her shirt and touched her naked back. He wanted to feel her silky smooth skin some more. Why wasn't she resisting? She should be pushing him off and kicking him in his family jewels by now. But she

Aleks waited inside the treehouse. Audre would be here any moment now, and he could hardly wait. He knew she'd be angry. He was prepared to take all the backlash. She can yell at him all she wants, but he wouldn't back down. He wanted her so he'd have her. He heard footsteps and then saw the ladder move as someone was climbing. Aleks smiled mischievously. There she is. "Hey cutie," he said casually as she walked inside. "YOU ASSHOLE!" Audre screamed and lunged herself at him, causing him to topple backward. Soon he was lying flat on the wooden floor with her on top. Good thing he laid down several blankets on top of the wooden board, so it didn't hurt his back. She grabbed his throat as if she wanted to strangle him. "Whoa there, killer. I don't think this treehouse is strong enough to hold a wrestling match. It could fall and we could die or something," he chuckled. "Not if I kill you first," she hissed. She still had her hand
