The Devil's Heir
Jarek has a few business acquaintances coming for dinner, along with some of our friends, and I have to be the gracious hostess.
"Mommy, mommy! Ashlyn ate all my dessert!" Our seven-year-old comes running into our room, screaming.
Devlyn is her father's namesake—sort of. Jarek didn't find my choice of name for her very amusing at first, but I got my way. It's very fitting because she acts just like her father, my Devil.
Our five-year-old follows her sister into the room, chocolate smeared around her mouth, giggling.
"Ash… Did you eat your sister's dessert?" I ask our youngest in my no-nonsense tone.
