Chapter 64

"Momma, everything okay?" A man around Jennifer's age appeared behind Mabel. "Can I help you, Sirs?" he asked suspiciously.

"Hush Child," she scolded. "These men are my Jenny's husbands. Show some manners. I didn't raise you in a barn, hush now."

"I'm sorry, Momma, but are you sure?" he asked as she swatted his arm.

"Here," Owen said as he removed his phone from his pocket and placed a video call. "Sean, show Miss Dawn, our wife please."

"Of course," Sean said as he switched the camera view around to show Jennifer laying in the hospital bed looking as if she were sleeping.

Mabel gasped as she saw the IV's sticking out of her elbow, "Get that tape off her right now, Doctor, she's allergic! It will irritate her skin."

"Grab the phone," Sean spoke sternly as Mabel watched the camera being moved. She watched as Sean washed his hands then slipped gloves on and carefully removed the tape. "Get Erica down here now," he demanded as he worked on the tape, trying to be as gentle and careful as he could.

"Erica is Dakota's mother and a nurse," Axel explained. "Dakota is another of our husbands."

A moment later an older woman rushed in. "I'm here, what's wrong with my baby?" she asked as she slipped gloves on.

"Her nanny just informed us she's allergic to the tape," Sean said as he nudged his head to his phone. "Owen, Axel, and Victor are with her now. Hold her IV in place while I get a wrap. Dakota, make a note for me to update her charts of this new information although Erica and I will be the only ones to treat our wife, I must update her charts."

"Understood," a man in the background spoke.

"Thank you, Ma'am," Owen spoke to Mabel. His eyes landed on the man, "Will the both of you join us?"

"Three," another man appeared beside him.

"You're twins," Owen stated as he took in the clone. "Identical."

"Yes Sir," he nodded.

"Jennifer has identical twin husbands as well," Victor stated. "Corey and Brandon Henshaw."

"Brandon Henshaw of Gearhead Garages?" he asked in disbelief.

"Yes," Victor nodded, "Along with his partner, our other husband, North Taylor of Taylor Construction."

"You look familiar," the first twin said as his eyes landed on Axel. He snapped his fingers, "I know, I've seen you at Coral Cove Aquarium a few times."

"I'm the owner," Axel held out his hand, "Axel Toma."

Some beeping came from a machine, "Her heart rate picked up," Erica stated, "It's not as low. It's more steady now, Sean. She hears them."

"Enough Elijah, Isaiah," Mabel scolded, "get properly dressed. Your sister needs us. My baby needs me," she reached around and grabbed her purse. "Hurry up, come along, get going. Don't make me get my–"

"We're coming, Momma," the twins said as they slipped their shoes on.

"Taking your sweet time," she mumbled as she practically shoved them out the door. "Your sister is hurt and you're taking your sweet time interrogating her husbands who were nice enough to come pick us up. I swear it's like I never taught you manners."

"Sorry Momma," they grumbled while rolling their eyes.

"You can't fault us for being suspicious," one of the twins huffed. "We thought she was still with that asshole– Ow, Momma! Stop hitting me," he tried to dodge another swing from her purse. "Do you have a brick in that thing?"

"Watch your mouth!" She scolded. "That hospital has plenty of soap! And what are you going to do if I do? Not a thing. Now stop acting like a heathen." He grumbled an apology while rubbing the back of his head. "Just because we did not approve of how her father treated her and refused to let us know of her marriage does not mean you can act like a bunch of fools."

Laughter came from the phone, "Sounds like me with all of you brats," Erica chuckled. "I love that woman already. She's definitely going to have her hands full with Gabe's mouth and Luke's antics."

"No fu...fre...da...ugh," A man huffed in the background. "No comment."

"I'm not going to do anything right now," another voice said. "There's no fun in that without my Cupcake. I just want her to wake up."

"Kitten be fine," A deep voice came through with confidence. "Doc fix Kitten all up, Nanny, brothers, come make Kitten feel safe, she wake up. Nanny take care of Kitten, we all take care of Kitten. Be one big happy family. Add Nanny, brothers, in family book. All be okay once Nanny, brothers, show up."

"Exactly," Erica said. "We just have to remain positive and Jennifer will wake up when the time is right."

"Have Corey put Miss Mabel Dawn and her identical twin sons Elijah and Isaiah Dawn on Jennifer's visitation list," Owen said as he started the suburban. "We are on our way."
