(Lydia)Thomas was waiting for me by the entrance to the mansion. I could tell just by his face that he looked nervous.Good.That was how he should feel exactly.I didn’t know if it was stupidity or what, but he really should have told me what happened.As soon as the car came to a stop, I jumped out of it and sprinted towards Thomas.“How could you?” I told him, coming to a stop in front of him, “You know what those children mean to me, so how could you?”I shook my head not waiting for any answer and passed him to get into the mansion. I ran up the stairs two at a time and was out of breath when I reached the children’s room. It was early in the morning and both of them were fast asleep in their respective beds.My heart filled with warmth when I saw them. It felt like the rest of the weight from my chest had been lifted.I walked towards Mabel and pressed a kiss to her forehead gently before cautiously moving towards Miles. I carefully kneeled beside his bed and pressed a kiss to

(Lydia)I held onto Thomas for as long as I could. We had been standing at the balcony for quite a while now but I needed this moment of respite after getting this heavy burden off of my chest.I burrowed my face into Thomas’ neck and breathed in his scent, trying to bury it into my brain because this was the scent that made me feel the safest in the world. There was nowhere else and no one else with whom I felt more secure than I do at the moment.“Thank you,” I murmured as I nosed along his neck and then the angle of his job, “I don’t know what I would do without you in my life.”Thomas chuckled against my hair, “You are very brave, Lydia. So I’m sure you would have already figured something out.”Despite feeling all sorts of emotions, I laughed out loud at his words. “You give me too much credit, my love.”The endearment slipped off my tongue before I even realized it. I blushed when I remembered this was what I used to call him when we were all lovey-dovey.I didn’t mean to say it

(Thomas)Barely a minute later, Jack was entering my office. He took a seat in front of me and asked, “What is it?”Actually, I had no idea where to even start from. I contemplated it for a moment before I blurted out, “I have decided to go to L.A. with Lydia for this red carpet event.”He raised his brows at me. “What about the proposal? Don’t tell me you’re thinking of doing it in L.A.?”Well, that is a nice thought but I decided to postpone it until we were out of this situation.I shook my head, “I’m not proposing right now. Will you hold onto the ring for me? For now, at least, it’s getting delivered tomorrow, correct?”He nodded, “It’s going to get delivered to my apartment,” then looked at me questioningly, “Did you call me here just for that?”I sighed, pinching the bridge of my nose before saying, “I need you and Ruby at the mansion. I know you guys would rather maintain your distance from mother, but Lydia and I will be out of the city and I need to make sure that both of th

(Ruby)I just felt so tired of how things were going, especially in my personal life.It felt like my life was turned upside down and while everyone seemed to settle into this new routine, it felt especially difficult for me.I had to take everything I was working on and shift it to Jack’s place.It didn’t take one day. I had to take several trips to and from the house while work was being done. The cameras were all set and now the windows were being changed.It would take another week or two for everything to go back to the way it was.I had enough of Jack’s apartment and I knew Lydia was tired from the journey and spending time with the kids so I had just got up and left the apartment. It felt too big without Jack there and from what I knew of his schedule, it was likely that he was going out with his friends again.Thinking about his friends made my heart pinch. I had not lived or led a privileged life. Jack had and so had his friends. I know these things don’t mean much in the gra

(Thomas)I was practically vibrating with excitement when I finally reached home. The mansion didn’t look as barren as it used to be when I lived here without my kids or Lydia in my life.Now, every time I looked at it, there was a homey feeling inside my chest. It was proof that a house only became a home when there were people inside it, creating it a home through their presence.I cannot imagine how lucky I have gotten in my life. Even though I almost lost everything, I was slowly gaining everyone I had lost back and I couldn’t be anymore happier about it.I got out of the car and in the next couple of seconds, I was entering through the front door, about to call out to Lydia or the kids. However, I spied a foray of voices coming from the kitchen and I immediately quieted myself.With slow and quiet steps, I walked over to the kitchen and saw Mabel, Miles, and Lydia’s head looking down into a bowl filled with a dough of some kind. By the looks of it, they were making cookies, just
