Kids From One Alpha” By Selena Lynch Chapter 62


    Chapter 62: A Visit From the Twins


    Finishing his beer, Logan headed to the kitchen to grab another when he heard a knock on his door.


    It was a soft, gentle knock, like the person on


    the other side was hesitating. Logan, for a split second, wondered if it


    was Serenaing to make amends. A part


    of him wanted that, but he wasn‘t sure he was prepared to ept any kind of amends, or make it hims


    elf.


    Hesitating, he went to


    the door when there was another knock. He pulled the door open to find Olivia and


    Oliver standing there with sheets of paper in their hands. “Uncle Logan!” Olivia said, rushing past him


    and into the house. Logan‘s heart tugged when she called him ‘uncle.‘ “We brought pictures,” Oliver sai


    d. The twins ran


    into the living room and began spreading the pages out on the floor. Logan looked outside but he didn‘t


    see Serena with them. The kids hade to


    see him on their own! A part of him was ttered, but his mood was still vtile enough that he couldn‘t


    enjoy it as much as he would have “Come look at the pictures we drew,” Olivia said, running out to him.


    She grabbed his hand and pulled him


    back to the living room. Oliver was very meticulous in his arranging of the pictures. “Is your mom here?”


    Logan asked, to confirm. “No, she‘s at home,” Olivia said. “I painted you a wolf,” Oliver said, holding up


    one of his paintings. Logan took the paper, looking at the painting. It was really good for someone Oliv


    er‘s age. “You two came here on your own?” he asked, sitting on the couch while


    Olivia brought him one of her pictures. “This one is a garden,” she said, pointing


    out the flowers. Olivia was a talented painter too, but Oliver definitely had


    the artistic talent. “We wanted to see you,” Oliver said.


    “Yea, you promised we could!” Olivia reminded him. Logan cleared his throat.


    “I‘m sorry,” he said. “I‘ve been busy.”


    “Yea, so we thought we‘de to you and show you what


    we‘ve been doing,” Olivia said, putting another painting in hisp. Logan looked at all the pictures. He li


    ked seeing what the twins were up to, but he didn‘t want to cause more of a rift between Serena and hi


    mself. “Does your mom know you‘re here?” Logan asked. Olivia and


    Oliver looked at each other, Olivia getting quiet.

    “No,” Oliver muttered. “That‘s not very nice,” Logan said. “She wouldn‘t let use over,” Olivia argued


    . Logan sighed, standing up and handing the paintings back


    to Olivia. “Come on,” he said. “Get your paintings. I‘m taking you home.” “But…


    you promised to y with us…” Olivia told him, pouting. Oliver looked at him with wide, sad eyes. It alm


    ost broke his heart to see how much they wanted to spend time with hin!


    “I know,” he said. “I will


    y with you soon, but I‘m really busy right now. Sometimes, adults have to do things they don‘t want t


    o do.” “What don‘t you want to do?” Olivia asked, helping Oliver separate their paintings and stack the


    m up. Logan smiled at Olivia. She was quick! “It takes a lot of work to be pack


    Alpha,” Logan said. “Sometimes I wish I had more time to y.” “Yea, me too,” Olivia said, looking dow


    n at her feet. Logan sighed. “Did you get them all?” he asked. “You keep this one,” Oliver said, handing


    Logan the wolf. He smiled and nodded. “Alright,” he said. “I‘ll take it to work and put it on my desk so I c


    an think about ying when I‘m at work.” “Okay,” Oliver said smiling. “Let‘s get the two of you home,” L


    ogan said heading to the front door. The kids followed him obediently, holding onto their stacks of pictur


    es. “We went birdwatching,” Olivia told Logan. She walked right next to him and kept looking up at him


    with starry eyes. She was so adorable! Logan wished he could spend time with them, but he knew if Se


    rena didn‘t know where they were, she would be angered if he was with them rather than being an


    adult and retuning them to her. She‘d also be worried if she didn‘t know where they were. He didn‘t wan


    t that. “That sounds like fun,” Logan offered. Olivia made a face and Oliver shook his head.


    “It was boring,” Olivia said. “Mommy‘s


    friend Carson isn‘t very fun.” “Carson isn‘t fun?” Logan asked. He was a little happy to hear that the twi


    ns preferred spending time with him, but he knew Carson could be really fun when he wanted to


    be.


    “No, he doesn‘t y with us like you,” Oliver said. Logan gave a soft chuckle. “He‘s really fun when you


    get to know him,” Logan said. Now that he wasn‘t so angry, he could advocate for his friend. He was s


    aying it more for the kids‘ benefit, though. He didn‘t want them to think that Carson was boring, becaus


    e he was a good guy!


    “We‘d rather y with you” Olivia said firmliv


    “Well, maybe we can make a regr y


    date, then, ne salu. “Yea, I want that,” Oliver said. “When?” “I don‘t know yet,” Logan said. “I‘ll have to t


    alk to your mom and figure something out.” Olivia rolled her eyes, causing Logan tough again. “Mom


    my is mad at you,” she said. Logan snorted. “Why?” he asked. Olivia and Oliver shrugged. “She didn‘t t


    hink we noticed,” Olivia said.


    “But we always know.” Logan nodded. So, Serena hadn‘t said anything bad about him to the


    kids. It was nice to be around them. They were so innocent, honest, and free. He felt


    that he could safely be around them without his tempter exploding again. They were gentle, and friendl

    ly like that. All his usations


    hade from a ce of anger, a ce of insecurity. He didn‘t truly think that Serena would jeopardize


    her career or be unprofessional. The truth was, he had always thought she had great integrity. Now he


    had said those things, there was no way to take them back. He didn‘t want her to see


    him as a monster, and he didn‘t want her to think he would behave that way


    around her kids. “Thank you for showing me your paintings,” Logan said, trying to be


    a little softer. “We‘ve been working on them for you since we moved home,” Olivia told him. “Really?” he


    “Why?” Oliver asked. Logan


    smiled at him. “Because your mother loves you and takes care of you,” he said. He realized how ill–


    equipped he was to exin to two young kids why they had to listen to their mother.
