And Then There Were Four (Lilith Carrie)

"They've gotten so big," I said softly, her eyes casting towards me as she nodded.

"I know you missed out on a lot, dear. But there are plenty of other things to worry about. Your health being one of them."

"I know, mom," I said with a sigh. "It's just moments like this I realized I've missed out on so much. I know eventually, it'll get easier, but for now, I just have to work with it one day at a time."

She knew exactly what I meant, and wrapping her arm around my shoulder, she pulled me close to her, kissing the side of my face just as she had always done since I was little.

"Well, now that you're awake, you can start working on making me more grandchildren." The comment she made caused us both to laugh as I raised my brow.

"Well, there are four of them, and considering the fact they are not interested in naturally knowing which children belong to who, I can guarantee you that with their sexual appetites, I will be pregnant more than once." Even though this was my mother, we hid nothing from each other, and as my comment made her laugh, she looked over to Damien gestured for him to come over.

I could see the hesitation in his eyes. According to Talon, he was terrified of my mother. Although I didn't understand why she was such a sweet lady. Nevertheless, he walked toward us with caution. "Yes, ma'am," he said quite quicker than I had expected, making me laugh.

"Now that my daughter's awake and she's looking marvelous, by the way, I do expect to have more grandchildren, so considering she says you have a very large sexual appetite, I hope by next month she's pregnant again." "Mom?" I exclaimed with wide eyes as I stared at her. "Come on now, our personal life's personal. You'll get more grandchildren when they come. We're not rushing into anything."

"Don't mom me. I want more

grandchildren," she scoffed, rolling her eyes. "After all, I only got to have one child of my own, and now I'm

too old to have any more. I expect to have loads of grandchildren that I can spoil." t sto

"Oh, my goddess! Mom, stop." I laughed, looking at Damian apologetically.

"Okay, okay." She smirked. "I'll go find Blake and leave you two alone."

As soon as she was away, I stepped closer to Damian and sighed. "I am so sorry about that. She can be a little eccentric." "Oh, I know she can. You should have seen her while you were asleep."

Cracking a smile, I shook my head and turned my gaze to where she had disappeared. "She isn't wrong, though. do want more children. just really want to wait until we have more room because even though the pack house is big, it's not big enough for us to have more children right now."

"Don't you worry about the house situation. I'm taking care of that. As for making more children, we could always start by practicing tonight," he said in that deep, sultry voice I loved so much.

I wasn't sure what he had in mind,

but as I glanced in the direction he was looking, I saw James walking, towards the house as Hale and Talon quietly handed the twins over to my mother and Blake, who were more than happy to oblige whatever they said.

And from the knowing look on my mother's face as she glanced at me, full of mischievousness, I knew exactly what they were talking to her about.

And there was no way in hell she would decline that offer.
