Everything is set out just how I wanted it. There are three boards: one is for people to guess the gender, they have to write their name and add a pink or blue heart, one with dates on it for everyone to pick when the baby will be born, and the last one is how much the baby will weigh.

“You can fill in the boards when you want. I also have baby vests and mini T-shirts for everyone, and fabric pens. You can design your own, with a picture or a slogan. That is up to you, and we will give them to the parents-to-be.”

I design my T-shirt for my niece or nephew, and I take in everyone enjoying themselves. Della told me that it had been a long time since they had a baby shower.

“So, we are doing a baby shower now and then a gender reveal?” Juni asks.

“We are. Tree has had a rough time so we thought that we would do something nice. They will find out the sex of the baby in a few weeks.”

Juni shrugs, so does Dom.

“I am down for that. We get more cake.” The kids high-five, making people laugh.

“I win the best design,” Calder calls out, holding up his T-shirt.

I step to him, grinning like a lovesick teenage girl. His design is pretty good, and it makes everyone laugh again.

“See.” He winks.

Shaking my head, I tell him, “You did good.”

“I know.”

In black ink, some of the letters are thicker than others to make it pop, and the slogan says:

‘I try to be good, but I take after my uncle.”

The day is spent with fun and games, kids running around, or crawling. I snuggle on the sofa with Kane against my chest, his baby scent soothing me. Calder is at my side, his arm across the back of the sofa, his fingers toying with my hair.

The day was perfect, but my stomach tightened as the night drew to an end, a feeling of dread sitting heavy on me as I fall asleep wrapped up in Cader.

CHAPTER TWENTY-SEVEN

CALDER

I’m still chuckling to myself as I leave R.O.E. I had to help move some large props around for new movies that are being filmed this week.

Some of the things that are being put into the movies this week blow my mind. I get that people have some strange-as-fuck kinks, but damn, some people are just fucked up.

Clicking my fingers, feeling the tension in my knuckles, I walk to the club where my woman and son are. The hair on the back of my neck stands up, the feeling of being watched trickling through my body.

Stopping, I slowly turn around to see who is behind me, but I see no one.

With one more scan of the area, I push through the door, music assaulting my ears and I smile seeing everyone milling around, chilling at the end of the day.

Giving my boys a chin lift, I walk over to where my woman is sitting with the girls.

“Hey, baby.” I lean down to kiss her when she looks up, offering her sweet lips to me.

“Aww, who knew our little club whore would find the right chick to settle down with,” Luna gushes playfully.

I flip her off, keeping my lips pressed to Kady’s.

The girls laugh, then I end the kiss.

“Kane down for the night?” I ask her, dropping to my haunches so I am eye level with her.

“He is. Went down about an hours or so ago. His monitor is on, and we were just saying that he lets out the cutest snores ever.” Kady smiles.
