This worked for them since neither of them like to be far from the other. Stoney even takes her with him when he goes to New York to handle business with the Iron Vex and to visit his daughter he has with Boss. Though they’d made arrangements that he wasn’t on paper as the father. He’s still apart of Destiny’s life.
Shaking my head, I finish my pizza and make sure both my girls are good. Soon as Piper’s done eating, I clean her up while Parker finishes up her own slice.
Her cheeks are flushed and I’m willing to bet she’s anticipating what I’ll do to her body when I get her back to the room.
I hope she’s ready for what I intend to do to her.
“Daddy,” Piper says, reaching out wanting me to pick her up out of the booster seat.
I do what she wants and place her in my lap. She lays her head against my chest and sighs. “I’m glad you’re my daddy. Just like in Mommy’s story of the princess.”
I tilt my head to look at my woman to find her blushing as she swallows the last bit of pizza. “Um,” she murmurs. I’ve noticed she does this anytime she’s nervous or embarrassed about something. It’s cute as fuck but Parker needs to learn she doesn’t need to be embarrassed around me.
Glancing back down to Piper, I grin. “I’m glad to be your daddy. Maybe I’ll get Mommy to tell me this story of a beautiful princess.”
“Silly, you’re too old for bedtime stories,” Piper giggles.
“What? No way,” I chuckle.
“Yes way,” she says, nodding her head enthusiastically. “Plus, you’re not a princess, only princes and princesses get bedtime stories, she informs me. For a two-year-old she’s smart as a whip and speaks really well. Goes to show how much Parker has taught her daughter.
“Well, babygirl, instead of bedtime story from Mommy tonight, how do you feel about a sleepover with your new friend Corinne?” I ask.
Piper’s eyes widen and she looks to Parker. “Where will Mommy be?” she asks with an adorable frown in place.
“With me,” I inform her reassuringly.
“Will you protect her. Mommy needs to stay safe.” I frown and look from her to Parker to find her frowning in concern. This isn’t something a toddler should be asking.
“Babygirl, what are you talking about?”
“They were saying it last night. Mommy would go bye-bye and me too.”
Oh fuck.
Covering Piper’s ears, I bellow out my Prez and VP’s names.
“What’s going on?” Stoney asks and Rachel right there with him with a worry in her eyes.
“Everything okay?” she asks.
“Can you take Parker and Piper with you to the playroom and show them where the kids are staying for the night?” I ask standing up and trying to hand Piper to Parker.
“I wanna stay with you Daddy,” Piper protests, clinging to me.
“Piper, I know you do but I need to talk to my brothers right now. I promise you, we’re gonna make sure that you and your momma are safe. No one is going to take you from her or her from you.”
Piper nods and I give her a hug.
“Lil mama, you two hang in the playroom for a bit and I’ll come get you when we’re done talking,” I say gently.
“Okay,” Parker murmurs. I can see it in her eyes that she’s struggling to not run and trust me right now.
Parker takes Piper and follows Rachel away from where I’m standing with Stoney and Tracker. I spot Victoria glancing after Parker and Rachel with a mournful expression on her face. Tracker notices this to and sighs. “Vi’s realized the way she acted toward Harley wasn’t just wrong but hateful. She’s trying to make amends but finding it hard to fix things between those she hurt the most. It also doesn’t help that during the time everything happened she was going through her own turmoil of miscarrying for the second time.”
“Fuck, if Rachel had known that’s what was going on with Victoria, she wouldn’t be holding a grudge against her,” Stoney growls.
“Not something either of us want to talk about. Doctors think it’s best she doesn’t try for anymore and it’s taken a toll on her,” Tracker grumbles.
“Shit, I’m sorry,” I mutter, feeling like shit now for being pissed with Vi.
“They’ll work things out soon enough on their own terms. Now what’s going on?” Stoney demands, crossing his arms over his chest in a stance of authority.
“Nerd’s right about Lavina wanting Parker and Piper,” I state.
“How do you know that?” Shadow asks having joined us along with a few others.
“Piper said something about I needed to protect her mommy. That her mommy would go bye-bye and her as well,” I inform them.
“Fuck me,” Blaze mutters.
“Let’s let the girls have the sleepover,” Stoney says, glancing around the room. “Cyprus,” he calls out.
“Yeah, Prez?” he asks, joining us with a little girl standing with her arm wrapped around his leg, her thumb in her mouth.
Earlier he’d missed church due to having no way of getting to the clubhouse with his three-year-old sister on the back of his bike. And he didn’t have anyone he could leave her with. I’m guessing one of the prospects or brothers went to get him.
“This her?” Stoney asks, glancing down to the little girl.
“Yeah, this is my little sister, Bride,” Cyprus murmurs, holding a hand up. “Don’t laugh about her name.” The way he groans, tells me this has happened a lot.
“Hey there, Bride. I’m Stoney and these are my brothers,” Stoney greets Bride.
Bride moves further behind her brother but keeps her eyes focused on us.
Stoney lifts his gaze from the little girl back to Cyprus and nods. I don’t know what’s happened there but I’m sure we’ll be finding out. “Vi,” Stoney yells getting Tracker’s ol’ lady’s attention.
“Yes?” she says, her voice nervous like it used to be when she first started at Dolly’s Playhouse.
“Can you do
