My princess to the Black Widow Mafia

Chapter 146. Hardest decision

You guys are going to hate me for this chapter. I'm sorry in advanced to all of you. I promise it'll be worth it and it will get better.

Caleb POV
"D-daddy." I heard Aria cry out from the stairs. I got up from the couch rushing to her. Once she noticed me she ran towards me tears streaming down her cheeks.

I picked her up wrapping her legs around my torso while she buried her face in the crook of my neck hugging me tightly. I kissed her cheek and head repeatedly hugging her just as tightly as she was me.

She cried softly holding onto me tightly as if she was afraid someone was going to take her away from me. I felt so bad for her all I could do was hold her and whisper soft loving things to her to help comfort and distract her.

I planted soft light kisses all over her head and face to help her feel safe. I walked up stairs carrying her back to our bedroom to calm her down.

I walked into our bedroom closing the door so no one would hear our conversation or interrupt us. "Look at me princess." She pulled away from my neck looking up at me with her beautiful, big brown eyes that were glossy with tears.

"I'm sorry princess." I kissed her forehead softly apologizing to her for not being able to make it sooner and not just staying home with her and our kids.

She closed her eyes slowly tears continued to spill down her chubby, reddish cheeks as I kissed her forehead repeatedly. "I love you so much princess." I whispered to her as I kissed her forehead once more.

I wiped her pretty tears away from her eyes kissing them away for her. She leaned forward kissing my lips so softly I barely felt her lips on mine as she kissed me.

I carefully pulled her closer pressing my lips harder against hers, kissing her harder tasting her sweet lips and salty tears all in one. I didn't want to do this to her, to us.

I didn't want to be away from her and our kids it wasn't just a day or two that I was going to be away from them it was going to be months that I wasn't going to be able to see them or talk to them.

How was I suppose to break her heart and tell her this? How was I going to let her go through that pain when I tell her she wasn't going home with me tonight?

That I wasn't going to be able to hold her and stay up with her through her nightmares and sleepless nights. She was going to hate me for doing this but I had no choice if I wanted to keep her safe we were going to have to do this.

This was the hardest decision I've ever had to make. Not only was I not going to be able to see her but I wasn't going to be able to see my own kids either.

A heavy sob erupted from her as she tried to kiss me back. "Y-your l-leaving u-us a-aren't y-you?" She asked me crying to me. "I'm sorry princess I don't want this either." I hugged her as she cried.

I hugged her trying to ease the pain I was causing her the best I could before they took her to her temporary home with our kids. "I d-don't w-want t-to g-go d-daddy." She pleaded to me.

"I o-only f-feel s-safe w-with y-you." I hugged her tighter not wanting to let her go but I knew I had to. "I know, I don't want you to go either." I whispered to her as she cried against my chest holding onto me tightly.

I kissed her head trying my best to keep my own tears away. "I'm sorry princess." I apologized even tho i knew there was no amount of apologies that would make her heart feel better.

Only when she was in my arms she felt at ease, safe, cared for, and loved. Only I brought her that sense of safety and security and they were taking that away from her.
