SWNOVELS Chapter Who To Blame?
Autumn was not used to get a sleep on a new place but yesterday she was really exhausted that the moment she rested her head on her hand and closed her eyes, sleep engulfed her and she went in to a deep slumber that she didn't get the realization of place, situation and time.
Alessandro was hoping to be warmly welcome by his twins but to his surprise when he opens the door of the room, the women were found asleep and his boys were starring the surroundings with pouted face, to make the situation worse for him before he could prepare himself for the sight, his kid's eyes caught his presence and blinked their eyes rapidly, the innocence on their faces forgot him about everything, the thought of these two bundle of joys are his sons was melting his heart but the kids were under the effect of yesterday's incident hence the second he stepped his foot and crossed in to the room, his joy was turned in to an instant panic when both kids started crying loudly calling for their mother. 'Hey, hey, calm down' he rushed towards them in hysteria and tried to calm down them but the kids were already scared, seeing the new place and a stranger coming near forced them to scream with all their capacity and strength of vocal cords.
'What happened?' hearing the cries of her kids, Autumn woke up with jerk in fear and came beside Alessandro who was moving his hands up and down in order to quiet them, flustered she ushered him on the side and hugged her babies. 'Calm down sweetheart, mommy is here' kissing them on forehead one by one, she tightened her grip around them. Natalie who also happen to wake up with the noise and was now looking at her friend with strange eyes, Autumn lifted her eyebrow at her as if questioning silently from her about what?
'Where are we? Did they also got you?' her throat was dry after not having a drop of water for a whole day but she still managed to release the words from her mouth.
'Did you scared them?' ignoring her friend's question, she turned her head to glare at the man, who supposedly was the reason of twins crying.
'What? how dare you blame me?' Alessandro asked in shock, he scorned at her for thinking about him in that way.
'I am not blaming, they don't know about you yet so it is obvious they got scared seeing you near' Alessandro inhaled a sharp breath.
'Not to forget, they were tortured by the men having the same dressing as you are in right now' she wiped the tears from their faces after scowling at him. Logan and Ethan were quiet now but were hiccupping occasionally and had fear filled in their eyes seeing Alessandro present their, they glued themselves with their mother.
Alessandro exhaled a sigh, he understood what she was blaming him for but he shouldn't be blame for his suit, he is a CEO and has several business meetings to attend daily, he has to dress up formal and what is bad in it. Thinking about it, he realized that he is not the one wrong instead she is the one who should be blamed.
'But if you would have woken up early and have told them about their father before I came here, then they wouldn't have cried in fact they would have come to me running in happiness, perhaps you didn't want them to come near me' Autumn nipped her lips and avoid looking in to his eyes that held challenge in them to prove him wrong.
'I was tired, and you didn't tell me at night about your early visit besides we don't know the results yet' she collected her hair in hand and wrapped them to make a lose bun, Natalie was silently watching the scene in front, somehow understanding the situation but how this all happened was a big question for her and only Autumn can give answer of them for which she had to wait patiently or until this very handsome and hunky man goes away. 'Results are out already and it is confirmed that they are Martinis, they are my sons. So it will be better if you introduce me to them properly' folding his hands on his strong and broad chest he demanded after revealing the test outcome. 'Isn't it too early for the result to come out?' She checked the time in her phone which shows seven in the morning.
'Perks of being rich, I guess' shrugging his shoulder he said with pride in his eyes, he smiled seeing the surprise and hesitation in eyes of his kids, lowering down to look in to their eyes he rubbed his thumb on their baby soft skin. 'Hello my boys, I am your dad and I'm sorry if I scare you guys before' knowing they are three years old, he guessed they will be smart enough to understand the conversation around them.
'You are our daddy?' Logan repeated his words in form of inquire, his lips stretched broadly.
'Yes' ruffling his curly hair, he confirms, Logan looked at his mother, who nodded after a pause.
'We have daddy' Ethan was suddenly excited to know that they have father as well. Breaking the hug, he jumped on his father, Alessandro caught him on the spot.
'Woah, brave boy, huh' Ethan giggled showing off his small milk teeth.
'I am brave too daddy' seeing his twin laughing in the embrace of their father, Logan got jealous and rushed towards him escaping from his mother's arm. Alessandro picked him up in his arm and pecked on their cheeks. 'Mommy, don't look at us like that, daddy can kiss you too' seeing their mother glaring at them Logan was fast to offer a suggestion to his mother, Natalie chuckled, these two never fails to surprise them and today as well they did the same. Just yesterday they were held captive and tortured, were scared and crying but seeing their mother beside them brought their original side back, knowing they have father as well just worked as a fuel to increase their confidence. 'Stop it and come down' she clenched her teeth at the attitude of her son, who was gleaming in the arms of his father, Alessandro smirked at her.
'Hello, sorry for what happened yesterday. Please you both come in to the mansion for breakfast and then you can go for shopping' performing the role of good host he said to Natalie, switching his attention on Autumn by the end of his sentence. She looked in bad mood, may be seeing her son attach to other person was making her jealous, Alessandro thought examining her appearance, her morning look was more attractive than her formal one, her long blonde hair were loosely hanging in form of bun at her back, lose strands of hair were hanging around her oval face, and her ocean blue eyes held fear, anger and disappointment in them.
Sighing Alessandro placed the boys on the bed and distant himself.
'I have asked my man to arrange a clothes for all of you for today, he will come shortly so fresh up all of you after change and join us in the dining room, try to be fast, breakfast will start in an hour, my men are guarding the area, in case you don't remember the path, seek their help okay?' He looked directly in her eyes, averting them Autumn nodded, Natalie observed how reluctant her friend was, she understands what would be her emotions right now, think they need to talk.
