Doing what?

Even they didn’t know. Zayn was hyper-protective with his wife and daughters. He had three little girls, and as a girl dad, he didn’t play.

Yes, he loved each and every one of The Hunters, but he trustedNO ONE—not with the safety of his children or his wife.

Their resident doctor, Stella, was recouping with the birth of Tulip, and she was playing Mom to Clover and Marigold.

It was like they were a normal family.

They.

Were.

Not.

As for Eve, she went beyond her due date, making Dakota even more nervous than normal. Then, while they were having coffee three days ago, someone’s water broke in the kitchen.

And Eve gave birth there.

Apparently, the bad-ass Marine woman didn’t know she’d been having contractions for a whole day, or she was just ignoring them.

That’s when their son nearly bungee corded out of her body, onto the floor.

Luckily, Jagger and Rogue had caught a bouncing baby boy, and made sure Eve was absolutely fine.

Cash Landon Rakin, his first son, was born, and the first people who touched him were Dakota’s brothers.

It was a beautiful moment.

As they had been delivering Cash, Dakota, the whole time, he’d been helping Eve stay calm.

There was so much trust there, as the men made sure Eve was safe too.

Maura held her head, the men caught the baby, and Cash was welcomed by all of The Hunters.

And he was a cute little guy too.

It was a family affair, and luckily for him, Zayn wasn’t there to see it. He, absolutely, would have busted Dakota’s ass about seeing Eve’s girly parts.

He was a dick like that.

So, now, Dakota, too, was taking some time off for paternity leave. He had a teenager and a newborn, and needed a break from the clean-up inNew Orleans. Now, they were safely tucked away.

Hiding out.

As for the rest of the family, Maura was as spicy as ever, getting morning sickness still. Every time she puked, she gave Jagger a dirty look.

It said one thing—that she was going to do his vasectomy herself.

And he believed it.

Rogue was hovering over his wife since she was pregnant too. Luckily for them, though, Jinx wasn’t that far along. She was just barely showing, but that wasn’t making Rogue any calmer.

The man was worked up.

What he wanted was for his wife to be back at his mansion with their kids, while Jenna Dumonte watched over them for him. She was one hell of a housekeeper, and good with a gun.

A requirement in his world.
