Becoming the Luna - Chapter 379

Lake is also more shy so he goes slowly, hanging back until Sunshine throws herself on him, happy to see him.

“Well, there goes that punishment.” Hayden mutters, they had grounded their kids from seeing each other when they played minigolf with the eggs in the kitchen, it was the only punishment that seemed to have any effect on them.

It was supposed to be a week long and yet, here they were two days after, the kids catching up and chattering away happily like they hadn’t seen each other in forever.

Dream just shrugs, blonde hair cut short. “Yesterday, Sunshine had been in a bad mood, pissed that she couldn’t talk to her bestfriends. I took her to our Pack’s daycare but somehow she snuck out to get Mints and used him to terrorize everyone.” He tries to hide his proud expression and fails. “I don’t think we’re going to be allowed back there so I brought her here, she can’t stand being cooped up on the fourth floor, wasn’t expecting to find you here.”

Hayden pushes a hand through his long wavy locks, looking exhausted. “Yeah, me neither, let’s go down to mom’s bakery and eat cake.” Hayden suggests with a happy smile.

“Think they’ll be fine?” Dream gestures at their children who were huddled around each other like they were planning a coup.

Hayden bites his lip in worry and gives his brother a wobbly smile. “Yep.”

Dream just shrugs, going over to Sunshine who gives him her attention.

Hayden watches open mouthed, holding his children’s bags as Dream brings out a mini bat, a bright yellow color and tells Sunshine a couple things to which she listens intently, smiling with her dangerously sharp teeth as she watches her papa slip the bat in her backpack.

Lily and Lake come over to get their bags from him.

“Uncle Dream and Sunshine scares me.” He mutters up to Hayden who chuckles nervously, waving them off.

Sunshine grabs their wrists, staying in the middle of the twins who were easily taller than her although they were all born on the same date, it had to be Sunshine’s Omega genes coming through.

She marches forward with them, fearlessly brave, her sundress standing out in the middle of their jeans and sweatshirts.

“I can’t wait till they start school.” Dream grins evilly.

“I don’t know, Lake and Lily don’t sound like they like that idea much, I was thinking I would have to homeschool them.”

Dream looks surprised at this but hums supportively. “I don’t think you would need to, trust me so now… about that cake.” He winks at Hayden as they start down the hallway. “I was thinking we could also go window shopping at Paper District, we haven’t done anything fun together alone in a while.”

“But what about the kids?” Hayden asks in worry.

“They’ll be fine, we’re not their only parents, Dale and Virgil will survive, now let’s go.”

This has them in Dream’s car moments later, Dream seizing Hayden’s phone, putting it off and throwing it in the backseat.

His younger brother had been constantly checking his phone like he expected to be called from the daycare, he couldn’t have that distracting their day out.

Their Alpha mates knew where they went, if the situation was drastic enough, they would come get them, other than that, they better be prepared to handle it themselves.

They decide to check up on Hayden’s bookstore first, he was barely around anymore, it was even worse now that he was a full time parent.

Jennie didn’t mind, thriving in the bookstore, Mae choosing to work there as well because she struck a deal with Hayden to let her stock up on her witchcraft, magic and spellbooks, and also hold classes at the bookstore.

Yanis was long gone, coming over to visit occasionally, he was too busy to hang around the small town, although Hayden wasn’t surprised when his friend said he was really considering retiring early so he could come and live at Pine Creek.

The town was that way, it invited you in and gave you a home.

His mom would most likely be at the bakery, she was going on her travel around the world pretty soon, Dia and Heather tagging along.

Hayden was just happy she had friends now, she didn’t do much at the bakery except hang around and pester Dia, it was no secret that her presence brightened up the place.

She also snuck cupcakes and muffins for her three grandkids.

“What a surprise!” Jennie exclaims happily when she looks up at the dining of the door bell to see Hayden and Dream walking in. “Where are my babies?” She asks, looking around furtively for the tiny humans that always accompanied both Omega’s around.

“In school.” Dream says shortly.

Jennie gasps. “The twins agreed to go to school??”

“The twins are in school?” Mae walks out of the back room, holding a cardboard box full of books, shock on her face.

“No.” Hayden corrects quickly, throwing Dream a dark look. “At the daycare.”

“That’s even worse.”

“The goddess save us.” Jennie mutters.

“I knew that was a bad idea…” Hayden starts to panic.

Dream shuts him up by spanking his but. “Come on, everyone here is a pessimist, let’s go eat cake, cake always makes everything better.”

“Sure, until you’re getting called that your babies set fire to the building.” Mae says bluntly.

Dream is already hurrying a panicking Hayden out. “Well, that was a bad idea…” He mutters, taking Hayden’s wrist and going to the other side of the street where the bakery was.

Cake did make them feel better and they hurried out of the bakery after a hurried goodbye to their moms, because knowing them, they would get a rapid fire questioning about their grandchildren.

Dream didn’t think Hayden could handle that without cracking and rushing back to the Pack House to check on his babies.

So he bundles the other into the car and once again they were off, this time, headed to Paper District, things couldn’t possibly go so wrong back at the Pack House, right?
