The Daily GrindThe daily grind of the Blackwood pack had beautifully, irrevocably settled into a chaotic, exhausting, but intensely happy rhythm. The massive estate was no longer just a heavily fortified, stoic military fortress designed for war; it was finally a true home, radiating with warmth and loud with the joyous, feral sounds of a rapidly growing family.Caspian and Briar were officially ten months old, and they were, in a single word: relentless. They were currently crawling with a terrifying, supernatural speed that completely defied standard physics. They were aggressively pulling themselves up on every sharp edge of the mahogany furniture and constantly babbling back and forth in a rapid, high-pitched twin language that only they seemed to understand, plotting their next coordinated attack on the living room rugs.The Exhausted TeacherThe heavy oak kitchen door swung violently open, carrying a freezing gust of sharp, earthy mountain air into the suffocating, cinnamon-sce

The kitchen floor was cold, but neither of them moved. The hum of the refrigerator was the only sound for a moment as the realization settled in like a heavy, warm blanket.Ginny stared at her best friend, a cracker halfway to her mouth, her eyes widening as the timeline clicked into place."Four months?" Ginny squeaked, crumbs falling onto her apron. "Leela... that puts you... oh my god."The RealizationLeela groaned, sliding her hands down her face until she was peeking through her fingers again. "The night you and Jax took the twins," she whispered, her voice muffled. "Remember? It was their six-month 'half-birthday,' and you insisted we needed a 'Parents' Night Off' at the cabin."Ginny’s jaw dropped. "I remember. You guys didn't come out of that cabin until noon the next day.""We got carried away," Leela admitted, her cheeks flushing a bright, guilty pink that had nothing to do with the nausea. "We were just so happy to sleep for more than three hours... and then we weren't sle

The water turned off with a squeak of the handle, leaving the bathroom in a sudden, dripping silence. The steam hung thick in the air, softening the edges of the room.Fennigan didn't let Leela step out onto the cold tile. He grabbed the oversized, fluffy bath sheet from the warmer rack and wrapped her in it while she was still in the stall, cocooning her like a precious, breakable artifact. He lifted her effortlessly, carrying her out of the humidity and into the cooler air of the bedroom.He set her on the edge of the mattress, kneeling to dry her legs and feet with a reverence that made Leela’s throat tight. He found her favorite soft flannel pajamas—the ones with the little moons on them—and helped her button the top, his large fingers clumsy with gentleness."What are we going to tell your parents?" Leela whispered, her voice sounding small in the quiet room. She looked at him, her eyes wide with the logistics of it all. "Fenn... the twins are ten months old. Elana is going to th

The sunset was bleeding into twilight, casting long shadows across the porch, but the peaceful moment didn't last long."Baby names? Really?" Leela asked, looking at Jax with skepticism as she reached for her daughter. "And that didn't set off her grandmother radar? Elana usually smells a lie before it even leaves your mouth.""It was a good lie!" Jax defended, holding his hands up. "Ginny sold it. She even threw a strawberry at me."Leela shook her head, smiling despite herself. She bent down and scooped Briar up from the floorboards. "Come here, you little leaf-eater. Did Uncle Lugnut let you snack on the landscaping again?"Briar gurgled happily, clutching a soggy teething biscuit in one fist. She looked up at her mother with wide, innocent eyes—and then, with zero warning, she burped.It wasn't a cute baby burp. It was a wet, projectile event. A slurry of half-digested milk, slimy biscuit mush, and green flecks of the shredded leaf landed squarely on Leela’s shoulder and neck.The

The kitchen was warm and smelled faintly of the strawberries Ginny had been chopping earlier. She guided Leela to one of the high-backed bar stools at the island, practically pushing her down onto the cushioned seat."Sit," Ginny commanded, bustling over to the stove to turn the kettle on for the broth. "Don't move. Don't look at a raw egg. Don't even think about the word 'omelet'."Leela rested her forehead against the cool granite countertop, letting out a long, shaky breath. "I'm okay, Gin. Really."But she wasn't. Her shoulders slumped, and when she looked up, her eyes were swimming with tears again."I'm sorry," Leela whispered, her voice cracking. "I am so, so sorry."Ginny froze, the mug in her hand hovering halfway to the counter. She turned slowly, her brows knitting together in genuine confusion. "Sorry? Leela, why are you apologizing? You just threw up in a bush. You're the victim here.""No," Leela shook her head frantically, wiping at her eyes. "I'm sorry for this. For ge
