Everything that I used to lack in my life… I finally had.
A minute into making out, the front door of the clubhouse swung open, and the other six guys poured inside with bags of groceries in their hands.
“Woah, get a room, you two,” Auden laughed.
I pulled away from Kai, playfully rolling my eyes at Auden before climbing off the couch. I wandered over to the others, giving them brief embraces and pecks before they headed to the kitchen. Chris was last, and I made sure to give him an extra tight hug.
“Thank you for cooking dinner for everyone,” I told him.
Chris chuckled as he rubbed my lower back.
“I hope our guests like my food,” he said.
I flashed him a pointed look.
“Everyone loves your food,” I reminded him.
“We’ll see,” Chris replied, shooting me a wink before following the others into the kitchen so that he could get started on arranging the layers for the lasagna.
While dinner was prepared, and some of the other guys focused on tidying up the place, I focused on getting me and Adder ready for company.
I slipped on the cutest onesie that had a motorcycle in the middle, along with the words “Daddy’s Future Riding Buddy,” which made me smile. Adder had eight daddies, and he was loved by every single one of them.
I cradled Adder against my chest as I listened to his dads laugh from the main area as they set the table.
“You’re the most loved baby in the world,” I told him as I smiled down at his adorable face. He had the chubbiest cheeks and the biggest eyes. His hair was blonde like Kai’s, but he had my eyes. I couldn’t wait to see what traits he picked up from the others.
He was truly a product of love and adventure. The start of his life was so hectic, and he was almost stolen away from his own family. Thankfully, the Hornets weren’t a problem any longer. Last I heard, they disbanded after having their clubhouse destroyed and having no heir, which was a relief.
We could finally live our lives in peace, and I was determined to make the most of every second.
When I heard a knock from the front door, I hurried out of my room just as Kai let Madison and Chloe inside.
“You’re here!” I gasped.
Madison smiled at Kai in a grateful manner before leading Chloe over to me.
“Aw, he’s precious! Chloe, this is Adder,” she told Chloe, who had gotten so big. Her hair was longer, and she had grown a few inches already.
Chloe smiled at Adder, gently touching his little hand.
“He’s so cute!” she said. “Can I hold him?”
“Absolutely. Come sit over here,” I told her, motioning for her to take a seat on the couch. I showed her how to position her arms before placing Adder in them, watching her for a moment with a look of awe on my face before turning to Madison. “Thank you for coming.”
“Of course! Thanks for inviting us to dinner,” Madison replied as she gave me a tight hug. “You look great!”
I shot her a pointed look in a playful manner.
“You don’t have to lie,” I teased her.
Madison smirked and bumped her hip against mine.
“Well, come on. Introduce me to all your lovers,” she laughed.
I shared her laughter as I looped my arm with hers, taking her over to the guys as they waited by the dining table with almost nervous smiles on their faces. They were so insistent on making sure my best friend liked them, which I thought was so sweet.
“Guys, this is Madison. She’s been my best friend since forever,” I told them before stepping to the side so that they could all individually introduce themselves to Madison and shake her hand.
Kai was last.
“It’s nice to finally meet you. Aisling has told us a lot about you,” he said as he shot a smile at me. “As well as your own lovers.”
An amused look filled Madison’s face.
“What can I say? I guess just one isn’t enough,” she replied before giving my arm to squeeze. “Aisling has always had a lot of love to give. I’m glad she found you guys.”
I gravitated to the guys, slipping between Claude and Bradley as they put their arms around me.
“I’m glad too. I never thought I’d have a family this big, but I’m happier than I’ve ever been before,” I admitted, being struck with a jolt of emotion.
Bradley kissed me on the head.
“Our family can be as big as you want it to be,” he said.
I lifted an eyebrow at him as my cheeks warmed up. Now, that was something to definitely think about in the future.
“Food is ready if you guys are,” Chris announced.
“Absolutely! It smells amazing,” Madison said with an eager nod.
After taking Adder from Chloe and putting him in his seat between me and Cameron, I got settled at the dining table as Chris and Claude brought out a huge pan of lasagna, a bowl of garden salad, and a basket of garlic bread. Wine and grape juice was served all around.
