They moved to the back of the house and looked at each other. He could see her anger still rolling through her. She had been ready to take on the world for him, and he opened his arms. “You know I love you more right now than ever before?”“Why?” She asked as she looked up at his face.“Simply because you are you. Henrietta Paulin, I am the luckiest man on the planet.” He said as he brushed his lips across her forehead.“But why? “She asked as she looked at him, confused.“You stood there and defended me. You were willing to cut every one of them to pieces because they hurt me. You have every right to be pissed because of things they caused you, but you were worried about me.” Mack said as he looked at her.“Mack, I still don’t understand why that is important. I will always hold a grudge against the pe

Time passed, and they both went on with their lives now that they had the boys there. Every day was the same, but for them, that was perfect. He would get home from work and then give her a break from being on a full-time on mom duty. Henni watched them all play as the boys grew. She had never been so happy in her life. Mack had brought so much into her life that she had never expected anything like this.There was a knock on the door. She went to get it when she looked at the kitchen and smiled it wasn’t so late. She looked at the door and then opened it. She was shocked when she saw who was there.“Hello, Henrietta.” Her mother said as she looked at her youngest daughter. The older woman was dressed in a nice outfit like almost looked like a business suit. She was far too made up for a visit with one of her children. Especially the one the older woman had turned her back on years before. This w

She smiled at him. “Well, at least now you have met your mother-in-law,” Henni said with a laugh.“And she is as wonderful as I thought she would be,” Mack said dryly. “I have a feeling we are going to have a few more incidents with her, and what the hell was she talking about the rumor?”“My mother has never been one of those people that said what they really wanted to outright. She always hid it with the statements, “I heard this.” Or “I heard a rumor about you.” Basically, it is the way she is. For someone who says they don’t like toxic people, she is one.” Henni said as she laughed. “I mean this one she said it was living in sin. She isn’t religious, and lord knows she has had more affairs than one of the presidents.”“Henni.” He said as he laughe

At six months pregnant, Henni was not happy with the change in the weather too much warmer. The boys, however, loved to be outside, so most of their days were spent on the patio where she had installed a fan to make it slightly better. There had been no communication between her and anyone for months. Mack had gotten calls from his cousin, who knew everything the other people were saying about him was false.Gabe had become a source of information for Mack. Though Mack honestly didn’t care too much about the other people. He smiled when one person had tried to confront him about Nicole and her claims. “If she is pregnant, which I doubt she is. A DNA test will easily prove who the father is. Because without a doubt, it is not mine. The only woman I have gotten pregnant is my wife, twice.” Mack said, and the person's face fell. They wanted him to admit it

On the patio, at dusk, Henni sat outside with the boys inside for their naps, with Mack sitting on the couch right next to the door. She knew they were there before they made a sound. She turned their way and watched as the group of women walked into her backyard for the first time. “What a surprise,” Henni said with a smile. “I was expecting you a little later when it got darker.”“You were expecting us?” Abby asked with a slight laugh. She still looked like she was put together, but her eyes were puffy, and it was plain to see she was the most upset of the group. Henni remembered that Gabe had completely left her a few hours earlier. This woman had lost the goal even more than the one who had never had it.“When Gabe called this afternoon, I figured out your entire plan. It wasn't hard, you know.” Henni said. “I normally wouldn’t even play your game or

Henni watched as her mother continued to dissect the group of women in front of her. It was a sight to see when they started to look at Henni for help which brought her to smile. She looked at Nicole and grinned even more as Mack came out holding both of the boys, and they were smiling as they did, just like their father, who was where they got all of their looks from. She reached over and took one of them and smiled at the boy who was watching with wide eyes.Nicole took a step closer to where Henni and Mack were standing. That was when her mother focused on the blonde-haired woman. “You!”“Me?” Nicole tried to speak.“Who else?” Henni’s mother asked. “You are the only one there. You are the most worthless of all of them.”“Excuse me?” Nicole asked

Henni’s mother left after they did allow her to spend a few minutes with the twin boys. Henni smiled at him. “See, I told you I would never be in any danger. I had the best secret weapon of them all.”“I never thought you would call your mother for anything.” Mack laughed at her face that she was making at the thought of her secret weapon. “I mean, I still can’t believe that you did that. You dislike her so much. I mean, so do I, but I never thought you would reach out to her. That was a bold move that no one saw coming.”“It wasn't a want.” She said as she sat down on the couch. “I knew the only one who could easily tear someone down with a look was her. I didn’t think she would go so far, though.”“You mean for her to call your sister and their mothers?” he asked.

A few months later… The door knocked, and as Mack walked to the door, he shifted the newborn baby girl in his arms to open it. He smiled down at the baby girl that was only a few days old. Her delivery was as quick as her brothers, but she was much smaller than the two of them. He had an idea who was at the door. When he opened it he was not surprised by what he saw. Gabe was standing there with Matt and Christian.“Where is my goddaughter?” Gabe asked as he reached out to see the baby. It was a sight to see these three men fall over themselves to see a newborn baby. They all had grown in the past few months, and Mack was happy to see them acting more like the men he knew they were.“She is my niece,” Christian said as he took a step closer, and then he began to chuckle. “She looks exactly like Henni did when she was bor

“Actually, it all begins with our parents,” Matt said out of the blue. “After all of this and when I had to make the announcement that Beth and I were not getting married. My mom and dad sat me down and explained how all of this really started. They were surprised at first, but they thought about it and decided to share the real reason. they had thought Beth and I weren’t really a part of it, but we were. ”“Well?” Gabe asked. “I have always wondered, but no one would talk about it.”“That is easy to understand. It wasn’t the best story, and it doesn’t make some of our parents look good.” Matt said as he took a breath. “It began when your grandfather on your dad’s said, and My grandfather made a deal that their firstborn son and daughter would e

After everyone left, Mack looked at his wife and was puzzled by what she had said. “Why would want them to have both girls and boys?” he asked her after getting the two boys to bed in their cribs upstairs. He was so glad now that they had them in their own beds, and they were sleeping through the night. Though the newest addition of the family woke up every two hours to be fed, he was happy to help as much as he could. Henni had blossomed as a mother to the kids. She was radiantly beautiful when she was with them. “Isn’t it obvious?” Henni asked as she looked at him as he stared at her holding the baby girl they had a few days before. “No,” Mack said. “I knew I wanted a few of each, and I told you as much. I like kids, though.” “And they do too,” Henni said with a laugh. “I think that our kids are just the first of many for the group. But that isn’t the reason.” “I really d
