That was true.
I liked what I did.
I liked the feeling of peace it sent through me knowing that a child I rescued wasn’t going through absolute hell.
“That’s why my sisters won’t ever know.”
Felix looked at me with a grin. “I wasn’t talking about your sisters.”
CHAPTER 2
Babies born on March 31st are the easiest to fool on April first. They were literally just born yesterday.

“I think I’ve had just as much fun as I can here, so I’m going to go home.”
My brothers, all seven of them, looked at me like I was a blotch of mud on their crisp white shirts.
“You literally just got there.” Quincy, my eldest brother, and part of a triplet set, said.
Quincy, Quinn and Quaid were the triplets.
Then there was Auden and Atlas, the first twin set. Then there was my sister Addison and I. Followed by Gable and Garrett.
Every last one of them but me were military.
Quincy, Quinn, and Quaid had been in the Marines. Auden and Atlas were Navy. My twin sister, Addison, as well as Gable and Garret were all Air Force.
The only one still an active member of the military, though, was Addison.
The rest of them had retired and started working at Dallas Police Department.
Then there was me. A nurse. Though, I was a badass who worked as a flight nurse, so there was that.
“I actually have to go,” I admitted. “Gable, it was really great to see you. Please try not to die while you are undercover.”
Gable flipped me off.
But I wasn’t joking.
When he’d decided to go undercover six months ago, I’d had a mini panic attack because five years ago, Garrett, his twin brother, had been undercover, too. Only, Garrett had gotten stabbed while undercover, and it was a huge shit show that literally almost killed him.
Had there not been a baby doc in the hospital that day willing to go against the grain, my brother would literally be dead.
“I’m serious, y’all,” I said as I gathered the rest of my things. “This isn’t a joking matter. I don’t want to get a call from any of y’all’s lieutenants again saying that something happened and I need to get to the hospital.”
All seven of my brothers looked chagrinned at that.
“We’ll be safe.” Quincy promised. “Go before you’re late.”
I went before I was late.

Literally, there was nothing worse than an airport.
