Chapter Eighteen
"Who are my handsome boy? Who are my handsome boys?" Harry cooed at his babies where they were laid out on the play mat in front of him. Killian blew some spit bubbles at him while Maddock was busy attempting to slobber his wolf cuddly toys ear to death.
Killian wriggled a little before Maddock suddenly swung his toy and caught his brother in the face with it. The affronted look on Killian's face was adorable, as was the bottom lip that stuck out and wobbled slightly before he started crying. Maddock looked to the side worriedly at his twin, his own lip wobbling in threat of a cry too.
"Cast away your worries, my dear
For tomorrow comes a new day
Hold to me, you've nothing to fear
For your dreams are not far away
As you lay your head and you rest
May your dreams take over, my love
Listen close, my son of the west
For your destiny lies above
Though the world is cruel
There's a light that still shines
In the darkest days of our lives
When all hope seems lost
and you can't find your way
Think of me as you look to the sky
Child mine, your future is bright
For your father's blood's in your veins
In dark times, I pray you will fight
For the world will soon know your name,"
"I love listening to you sing to the them," Lucius said softly from the doorway making Harry blink and look up smiling. The boys had settled down and were blinking up at Harry with bright eyes. Harry blushed slightly as he smiled shyly at his love. Bending down he nuzzled their cheeks grinning when they both burbled happily at him.
"How was work?" Harry asked.
"Tiring! Plotting and planning is exhausting," Lucius groaned stripping out of his robes and dropping onto the floor next to Harry. He leant over himself and dotted kisses all over the boys cheeks before leaning in and capturing Harry's lips. His dark haired fiance hummed happily and leant into the kiss.
"You know that you and Marcus are slightly scary right?" Harry smiled.
"Ha! Coming from you who started this ball rolling?" Lucius raised his eyebrow. Harry grinned crawling over to Lucius and straddling his lap, wrapping his arms around Lucius' shoulders and pulling him in for another deep kiss.
"I might have started this ball rolling, but you have caught that ball and turned it into a boulder. You're amazing," Harry sighed.
"I lost pace for a little while, you and the boys, it took me a while to find my feet not having to wear my mask the whole time. But you were right, no one threatens this family, no one. And I will not let anyone take this from me, I will not let anyone harm our family. You mean the world to me," Lucius smirked.
"You know, this side of you is extremely sexy," Harry smirked back running his fingers into Lucius' hair, loosening it from his ponytail.
"Really?" Lucius' eyes were twinkling as his hand slipped under Harry's top.
"Please tell me you are not doing that in front of my nephews?" Marcus drawled.
"Never mind the nephews! My eyes!" Bill groaned snickering.
"Shut up Marcus," Lucius glared but Harry was smirking at Bill.
"Heeey Bill, fancy seeing you here," Harry smirked wider when Bill turned bright red, his eyes glancing to Marcus before settling back to Harry to glare at him.
"I was popping in to visit you and boys," He grit out.
"Really, four days on the run, we're honoured," Harry snickered.
"I...well...you see..."
"Wonderful as you are here to see the boys you and Marcus can look after them while Lucius and myself have a little adult time," Harry stood quickly and tugged Lucius to his feet by his lapels and tugged him to the door.
