The next couple of months I was glued to Cains hip. It was weird we were always in the same room no matter what. He would work wherever I wanted to be and just have a table set up or his things brought to him. This seemed to annoy Bower as much as it was driving me crazy.

I loved Cain with all my heart but how were we supposed to keep things spicy if I saw him everywhere.

Not that I had energy to be spicy with him.

Between thinking about my baby not letting me eat and Malachi I was drained.

F?anor had left me a note telling me what ever I was thinking I needed to stop. Maybe Nora and I were similar.

To entertain myself I started doing a lot more with Indi...one day out of boredom I put on a concert for her where I sang a couple of songs she was a Riri fan, and an Adele fan with Queen B it depended on what song I sang. That became concert Monday.

"I told her Indi does not need any more dresses she has even worn the ones you made her yet she still little". Indi starts babbling aways. "Mmmh, what I okay I can tell her" I reply to her. "Just two that you can fit right now right?" I ask her.

Indi babbles a little more and smiles. "Oh okay miss girl three it is" I laugh.

"Indi you know that daddy of yours said he will come hangout with us 15 minutes ago but he is still at the table isn't that crazy?

" I ask her. Indi frowns and moves around babbling something that sounded like she was annoyed.

"Girl I know! But what can we do about it? " I whisper.

Indi looks at me and then toward Cain and says something loudly and Cain is on the blanket with us. "Indi, Nova I'm trying to work" he replies. Indi cries a little and babbles and the papers he was holding disappear from his hands.

"Okay fine you win" he grabs her and gives her kisses.

"So demanding like your mama" he laughs.

"Um excuse me sir she gets that from you" I smack his arm.

"How are you doing my love, do you think you can try and eat something in a bit?

" I had bad morning sickness and felt nauseous so I struggled to eat.

Most days I could only hold down a smoothie. "Mmmh I could try." I sigh. Indi just wanted cake and this one refuses to eat anything but smoothies so far. It was driving me crazy, I mean how are we supposed to both stay healthy like that?

"Um what are you doing?" Ares asks when he walks into the dining hall. Indi was holding her feet in the air and I was doing a version of happy baby. "We are doing yoga Ares" I inform him. As I turn over to do baby cobra I turn Indi onto her belly as well.

"What is yoga?" he questions. "It's like stretching" I reply. "Why is Indi doing it? he asks "Because it's Yoga Wednesday today. Everyday we do a different activity together" I inform him. "Can I join you?" he asks. "Indi what do you think?" I turn to look at her.

She shoved her hand in her mouth in respond. "I guess she is indifferent" I laugh. Ares watches as I change positions and when I am in downward dog he starts smiling. "I like that one"he says. "I'm sure you do" I roll my eyes.

Thursday- "Me time"

"Ares?!" I yell. Cain had been working non-stop for 3 hours and Indi was spending time with her grandma so I had free time. After reading a book for two hours, I tried to get Cain to take a break but he wouldn't budge.

"You called?" Ares peeks his head in. "Keep me company?" I ask. "Of course beautiful" he comes to lay his head in my lap. As we talk about random stuff I had started to braid his hair. "Are you doing the whole head? he asks.

"Um no" I reply. I make him turn over and give him a few more braids to match on the other side. "Oh yes I like this" he smiles when he looks in the mirror. "Be honest do I look sexier with braids?" he questions.

"Mmm I mean maybe but I think whenever a guy gets a fresh cut or new look they look more appealing" I shrug. "I can't believe you haven't noticed" he says after awhile. "Noticed what?" I ask. Instead of answering he takes off his shirt and points.

"Is that a tattoo?" I ask. "Wait is that my name?" I stare at the side of his neck. "Why... I mean.. no why?" I was in shock. "Because I love you" he shrugged. I was going to reply but a little mark on his side grabbed my attention.

"Oh my goodness your birth mark is so cute!" my eyes land on his side. "It's just the shape of a heart Nova nothing special" he laughs. "How have I never seen this?" I gently touch his skin. "Maybe you need to see me naked more often" he winks at me.

Cain chimes in with a low growl, he seemed to be more possessive when I was pregnant. "We can all be naked I mean" Ares nervously laughs. Which makes Cain stop growling and me roll my eyes.

"Rinus you can't be silent the entire time" I sigh. "Brother is Nova alright she barely eats or keeps food down" Cain sits next to me. "Nova is healthy, I would recommend eating things less flavourful"he replies. "Um no I need my food seasoned thank you very much!" I protest.

Rinus ignores me and stares at the screen "would you like to hear the baby's heart beat?" he asks. Cain nods and holds my hand as soon as we hear it I burst into tears. Then as Rinus moves around the sounds changes. "What happened is the baby okay?" Cain asks.

"Nova I need you to take a deep breath with me" he orders. We breath in and then breath out. "So that's the second baby's heart beat" he says. "Excuse me?" I stare at him. "I don't understand we are having baby number two" Cain frowns.

"Let me rephrase. Congratulations you are having baby number two and three!

" Rinus smiles. "No we are have just the one baby so Indi and this one makes two" I shake my head.

Rinus moves around my belly and we hear one heartbeat and then a second.

"Fuck Nova, we are having twins" Cain stands up and starts pacing.

Saturday and Sunday Alara and Vato babysat. I think they were practicing with Indi for when they have kids. It was cute. I didn't have any weird dreams where Malachi was watching me sleep and he didn't try to talk to me either.

I had so many questions plus I really wanted to know why my family lullaby triggered Rinus. Maybe Rinus and I should go see Malachi just the two of us. Then again the last time I went somewhere with Rinus Alara and I ended up unconscious for a month.

It killed me to wait and I don't even know what we were waiting for. Not that I had energy to deal with anything these babies didn't let me eat much and I was tired all the time. When is something going to happen?!
