Sebastian's POV:

Victoria and Sawyer are the only form of family we have left after Zara was murdered and there's been a void in our life ever since that will never be able to be filled. After her body was discovered and we had her funeral, I commissioned an artist to paint a portrait with all of us in it- including Zara and all of our kids. This was our tribute to everything she has done for us. It hangs above the mantel and reminds us to be grateful for what we have. I miss her more and more everyday. My little sister.

"There's my girls"

"Daddy!!" They all ran to me. Never did I think I would be a dad to three little girls. Lola Melody, Elle Mackensie and Marley Harper De Luca. It took Ana and I both by surprise when we found out that we were having twin girls but they're all the loves of my life. My four girls.

I couldn't give a shit that I was outnumbered, although I did have my nephew.

"Uncle Seb!" Louie ran in behind the girls.

"Hey Lou" I opened my arms again for him to join the hug, all four kids entangled in my grip.

Anastasia walked into the room, soon followed by Sawyer and Victoria who all smiled at the sight.

"If you all don't let go, I think Uncle Seb will get suffocated" Sawyer laughed.

"Sorry Uncle Sebby."

"Sorry Daddy." They all said in unison. And I just stood up and patted their little heads, sporting a large smile of my own.

They continued to play together on the ground as I stalked towards my wife.

"I got you a present, angel."

"I thought we agreed not to get each other presents!" She insisted, looking adorable when she's mad.

"You might've agreed, but I, certainly did not. I'll continue to spoil my wife until the day I die." I said, kissing her on the forehead.

I pulled out a jewellery box and placed it in Ana's hands. She looked down at it in surprise and I just laughed.

When she opened the box, her eyes sparkled as she looked between the anklet and me, her mouth slightly agape.

"It's beautiful" she beamed.

The gold anklet has all of our initials on it- A, S, L, E and M. Our beautiful family.

I gently took the piece out of her hands and dropped down to my knees, lifting her foot as I clasped the anklet around her ankle.

I stood up and admired how it looked, leaning in close to ensure that she's the only one who hears what I have to say, "that looks gorgeous, my love, but it would look even better over my shoulder."

She looks at me with shock and I just open my arms and she walks into them, embracing me.

"Thank you so much. I absolutely love it."

The rest of the day went on slowly and finally it was time for the girls to go to bed. I had many plans on what I was going to do with Anastasia tonight but I had to make sure to get the girls fast asleep first.

With our daughters securely in their beds after I read them a bedtime story, I opened the bedroom door to see Ana laying on the bed in black lace lingerie who was looking at me with need.
