Tracker

  It was supposed to be a fun dinner with the noisy boys. However, they are currently across the continent doing their jobs. But it won't give them a bad day at all. They are eating a fancy meal with the babies and kids that Gray adopted. They are having fun during the meal since Victor made them laugh. They accepted these kids as their family as Dione, Quinn, and Kal were very excited to have them as big brothers and sisters. 

  After school, they all study together. Kal was very much observant as he wanted to join them in the study while Quinn and Dione played whatever they had in mind. 

"Cole, how do you like your aquarium?" MJ asked Cole. 

"It's amazing, mom. Thank you." 

  MJ stared at Cole with those soft eyes. She nodded her head, as she held her tears. She always wanted to be a mother. Cole was like her lost baby. That's why she was very emotional when Cole called her mom for the first time. 

"Bunny," Dione said as she picked up her strawberries and brought them to her mouth. "Kikin~~fisshy—fishy." She told MJ. 

"Do you like your bunny, Dione?" MJ asked her as she fed her rice, mixed with meat. 

"Yesh," Dione bounced her head. "Te-Ku, Mimi." 

  Johanna stopped slicing her steak when her phone vibrated. She checked it under the table and looked at her fiance who eyed her. She smiled at him and slid the disposable phone back into the pocket of her dress. After dinner, they let the kids in the house play with the babies. Quinn was too excited as she reached for Alexa's hand to take her to their room. 

  Alexa stopped in front of the door of Connor and Johanna's room but Connor let her in while he was preparing Johanna's clothes. 

"Wow," Alexa gaped at the beautiful aquascape. 

"Fish!" Quinn pointed to the quarantine tanks. "Fish." She pointed to another. "Tutu." She clapped her hands. Connor smiled as Quinn toured Alexa around and then her bed. "Sleepy." She said. 

"Does she have a separate room?" Alexa asked Connor. 

"She can't have it yet. She's still a baby." Connor grinned while listening to the kids. Then, Quinn showed a photo of her family. 

"Papa, love, mama. Mama, love, kin-kin. Papa love, kinkin." She told her. 

  Alexa smiled and giggled as they admired a few more live photos on the photo frame. A digital photo frame with a series of video clips as a family. 

"You eat broccoli?" Alexa asked her. 

"Broccoli, green." Quinn giggled. 

  Connor knocked on the bathroom as he opened it. Currently, Johanna is applying her beauty care products wearing her silk robe. 

"Quinn was busy touring everyone in her aquarium." He hugged her waist and kissed her neck. 

"Babe, can we build a pond for Quinn back to our home?" 

"Of course, my love. She can have any fish she wants." 

"I think we should tour her to the ocean park when I get back. You can take them to the ocean park while I am away on a business trip." 

"I will. But I want us to go together." He tightened his arms around her waist. "As a family, you know." 

"Okay," She smiled at him. "But, tour her first with other kids." She leaned on him. "Let's make love later after she falls asleep." She whispered. 

"I love you," Connor whispered as he planted her lips on her shoulder. "I will check on other kids." 

"Hmm," 

  Connor left the bathroom as he shut the door. Then, Alexa and Quinn hold each other's hands as they leave the room. He followed them down the playroom. A few meters away from the playroom, he could hear Kal and other kids laughing over something. When they got in there, Kal was lying on the floor, laughing so loud. Then, Yves gently pulled Kal as they put the blindfold again on James who started walking to guess on whoever he held. 

"They are having fun," Connor said as he leaned over the sofa and peeked at Kaiden who was watching them while drinking his milk from the bottle. 

"Yup. I don't think that they will be able to sleep early." MJ chuckled. She sighed and watched Cole who was holding Dione's arm as they ran off to the corner. "My baby girl has a big brother that she could rely on." 

"He called you mom." 

"I was so happy." She mumbled. "You know, even though I have Dione and Kaiden, I always thought of my unborn child. I might have moved forward but I will forget my baby. I wonder what he or she would look like. Maybe it's a blessing that we have Cole too." 

"You're not the one who is just blessed, Mitch. I am sure Cole feels the same. Looked at that little man. If he stayed in the facility, he would never feel how to be a kid. He was the youngest among them." 

"I hope that they will grow good, healthy, and strong." She mumbled. 

"I am sure that they will." 

  The girls screamed and so did Quinn when James caught Alexa. Then, it was Alexa's turn as they put a blindfold on him. 

  Connor sighed, a little disappointed that Quinn didn't want to sleep. But after a bottle of milk, she fell asleep fast, tired from all of the physical games. He gently tucked her in and closed the curtains, leaving the lullaby that Keira recorded for them playing on the speaker in a low sound. He took a shower first, dried off, and finally crawled to bed to join his beautiful woman. 

"How is she?" Johanna asked as she opened her robe. She quickly shoved her face to her neck as she slowly grazed her lips to his neck. 

"I miss you." He whispered. 

"I will finish this and get back to you as soon as possible." She whispered. She pinned him down on the bed as she straddled him, continuing teasing him as her mouth planted hot kisses on his hot skin. He closed his eyes, feeling the hot kisses. 

"Hannah," he whispered. 

  At two in the morning, Johanna dressed up to leave. Her man followed her around while their little girl was still asleep. Once she had everything she needed, she approached her daughter's bed and slowly opened the curtains. She bent down and kissed Quinn's forehead. 

"I love you, my baby." She whispered. Then she gently closed the curtains and turned back. 

"Mama!" Quinn quickly got up and crawled to the rail. "Carry~~mama." Quinn still looked sleepy as she raised her arms. 

"Oh, baby. Mommy has to go to work." 

"Seep~~seep, Mama." 

  She picked her daughter anyway and kissed her head as Quinn quickly wrapped her arms around her neck. 

"Seep~~seep, Mama." She mumbled. Johanna took her anyway downstairs while Connor followed them with Johanna's bag in his hand. Downstairs, Kal was also awake and crying as he insisted on his father to go with him. 

"Kal, daddy has to go to work." Victor gently coaxed him. "Come on, buddy. Stay with your mommy." 

"I want to go." Kal cried. 

"Babayeee Ka-Kal." Quinn waved at Kal when she thought that she was going with her mother. Probably to annoy him. 

"No, baby. You aren't coming with us." Johanna gently gave Quinn to her father. She looked betrayed for a moment and she screamed in high pitch. She shook her head. 

"No! No!" 

"Sorry, baby." Johanna chuckled. "You are still adorable. Anyway, be a good girl and don't bully your big bro." 

"No." Quinn crossed her arms and glared at her. 

"Quinn, don't be stubborn." Johanna glared back.

  Kal was frowning as he looked at Quinn. 

"You stay, Kin-kin." He said. 

"No!" Quinn shouted at him. 

"Guys," Violet sighed while she was holding Kal's hand. "Stop bickering, you two." 

"We need to go," Victor said as he kissed his wife, Kal, and then Quinn.  2

"Say goodbye now, Kal," Violet told her son. 

"See you, Dada." Kal waved although it was hard for him. 

"I love you." He winked as Johanna gave a passionate kiss to her man and then to Quinn who was still frowning. 

  Johanna take the wheel while her brother was in the passenger seat. She honked and waved at them. Then, she drove away. 

"That was hard," Victor commented. "Quinn was very much clingy." 

"Oh, she is. She bullies Kal." She sighed. Victor chuckled. "Well, I think she saw Kal bullying others." 

  Johanna snickered. 

"He bullied Leon a lot." She laughed as she continued to drive. 

"Who taught him that?" He asked. She shrugged. 

"I don't know. It comes with an attitude. I think." She laughed. 

  Victor adjusted the seat and closed his eyes. 

"Let me take a little break, little sis." 

"Sure." 

  It was a two hours drive to where their rendezvous was located. The garage opened as Andel greeted them with drinks. Since Johanna was very confident and she trusted Andel and Andromeda with everything that they served, she took a cold glass of champagne while Victor waved his hand and thanked him. They entered the spot as Andromeda showed a lot of equipment. 

"So, this is hiking." She crossed her arms. 

"Take a seat as I explain everything." Andromeda gestured and showed the current location of those damn snakes. 

"They are near." Johanna creased her brows. 

"That's why we need to hurry up."
