Emilio's pov

Alisha was in my bathroom taking a hot bath. I woke up to her shaking and sweating this morning. She was having another dream. I ran her a bath and she's been in my bathroom for half an hour now. I walk down the stairs and into the kitchen. I get the eggs out and start to scramble some eggs. The front door opens and Emory, Katalina, and Freya walk into the house.

"Emilio!" Emory screams when she sees me. She comes running over to me. She hugs my leg gazing up at me.

"Hey Emory, how did you like staying with your aunts and uncle last night?" I ask. She smiled up at me brightly.

"It was cool. I got ice cream for breakfast!" she shouted letting go of my leg and jumping up and down. I look up to Freya with a raised eyebrow. I already know Alisha would have a fit when she found out the twins had ice cream for breakfast.

"Don't let your mom know," I mutter. Katalina slowly walks into the kitchen not looking amused. She stood next to me before looking up at me. She reached her arms up to me wanting up. I bend down picking her up with my right arm before going back to the eggs. I put shredded cheese on the scrambled eggs and mix it, letting it melt.

Katalina wrapped her arms around my neck while she placed her head on my shoulder. "How was your morning Kat?" I asked, she let out a sigh.

"It was bad and I'm hungry" she whines, tightening her arms around my neck. I turn the stove off and place the spatula down.

"Do you want some eggs?" I ask her while grabbing plates down. Kat nods her head. I fill three cups up with water and put them in the microwave. And turn it on. I wait for it to be done.

"Emory, do you want some eggs?" I ask looking into the living room. Emory was sitting on the couch with Freya telling her what she wanted to watch.

"Yes please!" She yelled, popping her little head over the couch so she was looking at me. I chuckle at her while putting eggs on the four plates I got down. I place the plates on the table. I grab the cups out of the microwave and put a teabag in one while I put hot chocolate pouches in the other two. I put the cups down in the right spots next to the plates.

My eyes look towards the stairs when I see movement. Alisha comes walking down the stairs. She wore leggings and a sweater. Every time I lay eyes on her she seems to become more beautiful. Her eyes light up when she sees that her daughters are back. Emory jumps off the couch and runs to her mom. Alisha picks up Emory smiling while spinning. Emory starts laughing, throwing her head back.

"I missed you, mommy," Emory says when Alisha stopped spinning.

"I missed you too baby" Alisha kissed Emory's head before walking over to me. She smiled at me while looking at Katalina. Alisha put Emory down in her seat before coming over to me.

"Come here Kat," Alisha says, grabbing Kat only for Kat to tighten her hold around my neck.

"No Momma I wanna stay with daddy," Kat says. My eyes widen upon hearing her. I look at Alisha in shock. Her eyes were also wide as she stared at me.

"Ok, I'm sorry Kat I was just trying to put you down in your spot so you can eat" Alisha mutters before sliding down in her chair. She grabbed her tea and took a sip. A smile found its way onto her face.

I set Katalina down in her spot before I walked into the living room where Freya was. "Alright, I need you and your siblings to keep an eye on Mara. I don't trust her. Inform me if you find something out" I say. Freya nods her head before standing up. She started to walk away before stopping in the archway of the kitchen before she turned around.

"Will do Boss. Now what kind of things do you want to know?" She asked.

"Where she goes during the day and night who she hangs around and I want to know what she does as a job if she seems sketchy I want to know," I say Freya nods her head before turning to her sister.

"Alright, I got to go snuggle bug. Work calls" She says gaining Alisha's attention.

"Ok see ya later," Alisha says, sending her sister a smile while she waved her goodbye.

Freya walks out the door and Alisha goes back to eating. I walk back over to the table and sit next to Alisha. I start to eat my eggs with the girls. Kat finished her hot chocolate and her eggs quickly. Emory was playing with her eggs. She occasionally sipped on her drink. Emory grabbed a handful of her eggs, squishing it in her hand before giggling.

"Emory!" Alisha scolds. Emory pouts before brushing her hand off, so there were no eggs left on her hand.

"Sorry momma, I'm not hungry anymore" Alisha lets out a sigh before getting up and taking care of her, Emory, and Kat's plate, fork, and cup. Emory climbs down from the chair and runs to the living room where cartoons were playing. I finish my food before taking care of my plate and fork.

Once I was done taking care of my stuff I went to head out of the kitchen to get a little bit of work done.

"Daddy!" Katalina whines causing me to stop. I turn around seeing her standing on the chair holding her arms out to me. I walked over to Kat. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Alisha watching me see what I would do.

I lift Kat and she wraps her arms around my neck once again. She lays her head on my shoulder. I turned to Alisha and she quickly hid her smile once I looked at her.

"I will be in my office getting some work done" I inform her, she nods her head pushing herself away from the counter she was leaning on.

"I'll be down here with Emory watching tv," she says, placing a kiss on my cheek. I wrap my arm around her shoulders pulling her closer to me. I place a kiss on the top of her head. Alisha sends me a smile before walking to the living room.

I head to my office with Kat clinging to my neck. I sit down in the chair and pull out some papers I need to sign, go over, and edit. Kat fell asleep a few minutes after I sat down and started to work.
