Kiera nodded, then went back to cooing and cuddling Onnika I didn’t think she had any plans to give Kellan a turn Not willingly at least Eventually she had to share though, because after a while everyone else walked into the room And just like that, our place was party central There were soadmission

Aside from Kellan and Kiera, Mom, Dad, Liam, Matt, Rachel, Evan, and Jenny were there There were also nurses loitering outside the door, and a few people visiting other patients too, fro a baby had already circulated around the hospital I’d probably have to beat theet out of here

Everyone was all smiles as they passed Onnika around, and whatever tension had been between us suddenly uys were fine with me, and I was fine with them I could barely even remember why I’d been irritated earlier Another one of Onnika’s superpowers This kid was truly aineered to be cool

While Kiera impatiently waited for another turn with Onnika, she told Anna, "I called Mo out tomorrow or Monday Mom’s mad that you couldn’t hold out until your due date"

Anna snorted "She’ll get over it She did the last time"

I expected my wife’s happy buzz of newborn bliss to fade, but she looked relaxed and sleepy as she lay there, watching everyone lose their shit over her daughter It see could faze her at the moment, a fact that was confirlad you’re all here for this, and Mo as you want! My home is your home! Invite everyone, the more the merrier!"

My eyes widened Did she really just say that to my parents? I couldn’t help but wonder if whatever was dripping into her IV was h Either way, she’d just opened the floodgates, and there was no taking it back I could see it in iven per Anna said or did noould otiation was null and void, but at least I hadn’t torn up the contract No, Anna had screwed this one up all on her own

Chapter 7

Oh Holy Awesome

Thanks to Anna givingas they wanted, two le roo used up by various relatives who’d decided to "visit" and refused to leave

Anna’s parents were staying with Kiera and Kellan Kiera said that was because our house was too crowded, but Anna let it slip that the real reason they were staying over there was because they preferred Kellan over me

She didn’t say it quite like that She’d merely said they "had a few issues with my personality" What? I had an awesome personality, so that couldn’t really be it They were just wrapped up in the Kellan Kyle fantasy, like everybody else

That really irritated me I was the coolest person I knew, and certainly Martin and Caroline would come to know that if they spent a little more time with me I didn’t see what problem they could possibly have with iven her an awesonated her with two of my very best seeds What more could they ask of a husband? I should be on their Most Awesos under her eyes as she bounced Onnika in her arms "Griffin, I’ve had about as ?"

We were in our room, where Onnika slept in a bassinet by the bed We were eventually going to move her upstairs in a room next to Gibson, but Anna wasn’t ready to be that far away fro sex in ain When Anna had felt ready to resume the horizontal mambo, we’d moved over to the closet to complete the act I just couldn’t have sex in the saht I’d have a sexual Achilles’ heel, but I guess I did

I knehat Anna meant by her statement Even with our bedroo, running, watching TV, sto I needed a bigger house

Shrugging, I told her, "I don’t knohen they’re leaving You kind of told the as they wanted I think so in" A few of ly said that when they’d noticed the pool and tennis court At least, I was pretty sure they were joking I ave me a look born frothat Or anything even close to that I think you told theotiations So, according to the rules, I have one free win to use atmy arms over my chest, I raised an eyebrow "I didn’t say shit to anybody" Except my sister, Chelsey, but I didn’tall lovey-dovey in the hospital"

"I was doped up on baby juice That doesn’t count"

She closed her eyes, and I saw the tears for that she’d be less tired with everyone around, but that just wasn’t the case Anna felt the need to entertain the the day, Anna was still the one getting up all night long with Onnika I’d tried to talk her into napping whenever she could, but she said it was too loud, she couldn’t sleep I wished there was so I could do to help her, but I was stuck She’d opened the hospitality doors, and I couldn’t shut them Not on family
