"Thanks Jamie."
"We are going on a date as soon as you get back."
River rolled her eyes. "You wish."
She hung up and looked over at Mateo who was looking at her intensely throughout the phone call.
"I expected you to throw a fit."
"I expected you to be a bit more scary.. and authoritative."
"Do you want me to be?" He smirked.
"Nope. The last thing we need is a war to determine the alpha."

"Mom, what are you doing?" Susan asked Lilith.
Kiara turned around on her stool to see that her GG was eating the fresh batch of cookies they had made for River after she finished the ones they made yesterday.
"GG!" Lucas and Kiara yelled in unison.
"I was just making sure my granddaughter got only the best of the best." She shrugged.
'Of course, that made sense. GG loved Mommy!' The innocent girl thought.
"Thanks GG!" She ran to her great-grandmother and hugged her waist.
"Anything for my babies!" She chuckled but Susan and Lucas were looking at her with narrowed eyes because they both knew that was utter bullshit.
Kiara quickly turned to her brother. "Let's go play Luke!!"
"Okay!" He grinned at her and turned to Lilith. "There are eleven cookies left.Β AllΒ for Mommy!"
He took her hand and they ran to their room.
"That boy is scary!" Lilith said, clutching her chest.
Susan gave her mother-in-law a flat look. "Who do you think he gets it from?"
The twins were preparing for welcoming their mom home.
They had already prepared a card for their Supermom. It said,
'Β ,Β !!
!!
!
. '
And it had lots and lots of hearts and flowers. And also a drawing of the three of them in a park.
Kiara loved it though she didn't know why Lucas was using big words like 'indepentent' in it.
They were playing with the toy cars Uncle Sebby had brought for them when the doorbell rang.
"Mommy's here!!" Lucas looked at his sister, grinning.
They dropped their cars and ran out the room, dashing towards the front door.
Mrs. Marley was already at the door.
They ran through her sides and stood in front of her, waiting as she unlocked the door.
But it wasn't River.
It was a mister.
A mister the twins remembered.

Flashback
"Who are these children, Mona?" Dmitri asked his sister. "And what did you do to the boy?"
"They are Mateo's." Mona tugged at Lucas' hair, hard. Lucas was knocked by one of her men after he threw a fit to call their mother after Valerie picked them up from the kindergarten.
"Mona, you know it's not right. You can't do this to them. They are just children."
"Oh shut up and get out of my house. You are not welcome here!"
"Fine. But let me tell you sister, you are going to pay for this. Karma is a bigger bitch than you."
.
.

"It's you." Kiara whispered.
Mrs. Marley and Lucas looked at her.
"You know him, princess?" Mrs. Marley asked the kid.
"Ki, haven't Mommy told us not to talk to strangers?" Lucas asked her, looking angry.
"This mister's sister is the bad auntie." The little girl pointed up at him.
Mrs. Marley quickly pulled the both of them back, alarmed.
"Who is it, Mrs. Marley?" Susan walked towards them. "Rivy's not supposed to be here till evening."
"Leave or I will call 911!" Mrs. Marley yelled, looking very scared.
"What's happening?" Susan came forward, pulling Lucas and Kiara behind her.
"Please let me explain!" Dmitri said. Kiara found his and his sister's accent funny. She found Mateo's accent funny too, but it was different from them. Lucas loved Mateo's accent. He loved everything about the man. He was already his role model.
"Explain it to the cops!" Mrs. Marley yelled again as she pulled out her phone from her dress pocket.
Dmitri held her hand with the phone and Lucas held Kiara's hand at the same time. Susan held them both tighter.
"If you call the cops, you won't get a chance to hear what I have to say. And you won't know what danger lies ahead." He said.
"And why would we believe you?" Susan asked him, though her voice kept breaking.
"Because if you ask your little girl over there, she will tell you I was scolding my sister for what she did. I am on your side here." He said. "And even if you call the cops, they can't even touch me, but you will lose a powerful person on your side."
Susan didn't say anything for a while.
"Lukey, Ki, go to GG."
They didn't wait any longer as they took off to where Lilith was.
