Dominic
Fuck ,why was Archer showing up now. The kids were looking at me.
“ Dad , mom's entire demeanour just changed. Mia's like that when she's pissed. What does mom mean if it starts again?”. Gideon asked. These damn kids were too observant.
“ You know your aunt Jess and aunt Cassie run A&C global right?”.
“ Yes”.
“ A&C global belonged to the Archer family. Your Mom took it away from them because”. I stopped, I don't even know if I should tell the kids about the Shit their mother used to do.
“ Yessss”. Zeke Cyrus prompted me to continue.
I heard the door slam and I knew in that second our family was once again going to go through trialling times. She came and sat down and continued eating her breakfast. I guess the kids knew not to ask her anything.
“ For the next two weeks. No one is going anywhere. No Mall, no gym ,no friends over. No social media, nothing. Is that understood?”. She said quietly.
“ Okay mom”. They All answered quietly.
“ Tia”.
She put the fork down. “ Everyone has been warned. A&C belonged to the Archer family. I took it away from them because of Melinda Archer. She used to be your father's childhood friend. She was in love with him and made it known she didn't approve of him marrying me. I took it away after she hired people to kill me and the two of you. Your Aunt Allie, Maya and Richy.You were all one year old at that time “.
“ Wait,What?”. Gideon asked
“ Yes. You and Mia were one. It happened in the early part of the morning I… . I need to take care of something. Your father will tell you everything about the Archer family. Alone ” She said looking at me.
“Okay love ”.
After she left They Sat looking at me. I heard the door then footsteps. Richy, Maya, Chris, Andrew, Eric, Ben and Anthony walked into the kitchen and sat down and looked at me.
“ They said you'd tell us uncle Dominic”. Maya said, looking at me with puppy eyes. A fine morning for this shit.
“ The day Melinda returned to New York and found out I was already married was the day both of your mothers told us they were pregnant and the same day they were both hit by a car causing them to have a miscarriage. Your uncle Sam helped us find out who did it”.
I told them as much as I could without mentioning Sam's past and anything that could make them second guess him. They've all been Told the same lie that he was Tia's brother and he grew up in an orphanage. They knew Tia was kidnapped. But not about the rape or who did it.
After I told them they looked at me.
“ So Aunt Tia is a badass?”. Richy said
“ Yes she is. She may be your Aunt and your mother but underneath all that. She is still the woman I met , she's still the Tia that I love that would anything and I mean anything and Everything in her power to protect her family. So you're all housebound until she handles this ,go relax or play video games or something “.
“ Uncle Dominic, aren't you and our dads going to help her?”. Anthony asked. I couldn't help but smile.
“ Your Mom, all of your mothers are Satan's Demons. If they ever need us they'll ask but together they can handle anything and everything “.
“ Aren't you worried about her?”. Mia asked.
“ Princess if I could I would lock your mother away. I'm always worried about her but I know the minute she's in over her head she'll come to me. If you see your mothers sneaking around and are together then leave them alone okay “.
“ Okay. Let's go swim “.
“ Dad, can we make a slip and slide in the backyard?”.
“ Yeah sure go for it”.
I watched them Walk out one by one. I drank the remainder of my coffee. Jasper Archer had to have said something for her to take such drastic measures and Lock all the kids off. I was still sitting there when Sam came in. “ Are they gone?”. He asked, looking around.
“ Yeah but they're not toddlers anymore . Let's go to my office “.
When we got to my office ,he locked the door and looked at me.
“ Jasper asked where Melinda was?. Tia said she doesn't know . Jasper said he knows that's has something to do with his daughters Disappearance,so many years and their daughter never called. Tia told him the police and FBI cleared the family of any involvement, however Jasper was adamant we know. He told Tia she had a daughter and a Niece it would be a shame if they disappeared. Tia Told him to fuck around and find out what happens “.
“ Fuck. She has the kids Housebound”.
“ I know. I called Caius, I already put the word out and scanned around, I told him to report anything to do with the family. He already has Their names down as a no go so if Archer does try we'll find out. I asked Leah to keep an eye on Archer’s phone “.
“ Why now?, Shit I'll need to call Detective Ryan and let him know Jasper showed up”
“ Make the call. She left with Mel and the rest of them. God knows what kind of Destruction they'll leave behind “.
Shit in the past sixteen Years , our wives calmed down but they knew how to get revenge and cause chaos and destruction without lifting a finger. Allie was Now one of the top prosecuting lawyers in the tri-state area. Our wives were known as unstoppable and a force to be reckoned with in the business world.
“ Bennett?”.
“ Making some calls”.
“ I think it's time we let Bennett, Mason, And Ryan in on what's going on “.
“ Okay, seeing as the Way things are panning out now. Trouble will be heading our way more often especially with Mia and Maya being the only girls and all these damn boys are hot headed “.
