“Oi, no men in the kitchen!” Raven ordered. “It’s too crowded in here!” Alejandro cocked a brow before glancing at Taylor, who simply smiled sweetly.
“I’m helping,” he said.
“I think Raven meant no useless men,” Delsanra added. “Sorry, King Burrito.” I smiled as I kissed his lips.
“Missing you,” I murmured.
“Same… how long are you going to be fucking stuck in here? The kids are driving me fucking nuts.” I laughed. The men had been given the job of entertaining the kids, although the older kids were entertaining themselves.
“Are my nephews annoying you?” I teased.
Liam’s boys were a handful, and the older they got, the rowdier they became. They were nearly four now, and, Goddess, they had the energy to channel a hundred adults. Renji was gentler, and Ares was pretty lazy at times, but they were still hyper.
“Very much. Guess they take after their mother,” Alejandro replied, casting Raven a withering glare, one that she returned with equal passion. I shook my head as Robyn hid her smile.
“Where’s Alessandra?” I asked. Alejandro, who was a little distracted by my breasts, staring utterly shamelessly at them, looked up at me.
“With Scarlett,” he said with a cold smirk.
I smiled at our little Alessandra. She was the double of Al, no matter what he said. Everyone saw it but him. She was the little baby everyone spoilt. She was also Dante’s favourite sister, something he didn’t mind reminding everyone of, especially when Skyla annoyed him, although he said Kataleya was a close second. He and Skyla clashed a lot, with them both having strong personalities. However, Skyla pushed him to his limits often. The older she got, the more her personality came out, and she was the most aggressive of my children. Dad said she was a little Alpha female in the making.
The trio, plus Malevolent, who was Skyla’s shadow, entered just as Alejandro left the kitchen reluctantly.
“Who called?” Azura asked as she lowered the shades she was wearing, holding a candy stick as a cigarette in her mouth.
“And who do we have here?” Raven asked, leaning over the counter.
“We are the Devil’s Angels, now, who summoned us?” Azura asked, tossing her hair as Skyla put on her best frown as she crossed her arms. Kataleya, who looked like anything but a devil’s angel, blinked as she stared at the other two.
“Well, I heard certain angels wanted milk?” I asked.
“Oh, yes.” Azura flicked her hair as she took a puff on her fake cigarette, making the rest of us shake our heads. Just that morning, they were pop singers. The trio sauntered over to the table, and I took the glasses of milk over to them.
“Thanks, Kiara,” Azura said, giving me a small smile before she slipped her glasses down and crossed her legs as Delsanra placed a cookie in front of each of them. “Thank you, miss.” I resisted a chuckle. She was ten now, but she looked so much older. She was Mom’s height already, and I was sure soon she’d pass me, too.
“Okay, the trifles are done,” Taylor announced, turning and giving us a smile.
“And so is everything else,” Delsanra said as she munched on another cookie. “Can we go to our mates now? I miss my Yum Yum.”
“Dare I ask what exactly you miss?” Raihana asked with a suggestive smirk. Delsanra blushed lightly before she waved her hand.
“Hey, I haven’t seen him for a few hours,” she pouted.
“Hmm, or his-” Taylor was cut off by Robyn placing her hand over his mouth as Raihana burst out laughing.
“You’re my type of friend Tay.” She winked at him, and he blew her a kiss.
“Kids are present,” Robyn reminded Taylor, making Raven giggle.
“I think we are all done. Our witch team can keep the temperatures for each dessert just right. Let’s go get ready for the night,” I said, running my hand through my hair.
“Already done,” Delsanra said with a flick of her finger, and I felt the temperature behind me drop around the trays of mini cheesecake shots.
“My favourite part! Getting dolled up,” Raihana said, standing up as she carried the sleeping Heaven in her arms.
“Of course it is,” Delsanra responded.
“Okay, let’s say we have an hour to shower and spend some time with our sexy men before we meet up again?” I suggested. Although we all had our own accommodations, with some at the packhouse, we were all getting ready here.
