Chapter Eighteen
Natalia
Holy shit. Holy fucking shit. Natalia had claimed the boys in front of their mother. She basically insinuated that she and Maveryck were together. He hadn’t stopped her from getting in his ex’s face, but he was probably pissed at her words. She had spoken the truth. Major and Marshall were hers, no matter whether she and Maveryck had a future or not.
When she heard Maveryck ask Jenna what she was doing there, it was all Natalia could do to remain where she was seated. But it wasn’t her place to confront the woman. At least not until she heard the bullshit words coming from Jenna’s mouth, saying they were too much. There was no way she could stand by and let that woman spew garbage, especially when they were within earshot. Nanny, my ass.
Natalia worried about the boys not reacting to their mother. Worried what had been said for them to ignore the woman. To willingly want to spend time with Natalia instead. Was it something as simple as she showed them they were loved? They were precious to her?
When Major returned to the dining room, she watched his little face closely. He didn’t seem traumatized. He wasn’t sad. He was excited they got to go upstairs and play. Maybe she didn’t know enough about how brains of children worked, but she couldn’t imagine being separated from her own mother at that age and not reacting to seeing her again. Major just wanted to play. But Marshall? Maybe his little four-year-old heart understood more than Natalia realized. He ignored his mother and told Natalia he loved her. Had he been giving the woman a big “fuck you?”
All Natalia knew was she hadn’t been lying. She might not be their mother, but she would be the best at whatever Maveryck allowed her to be in their lives. If they never called her “mom,” she was okay with that. She was their Lollipop. Tolly and Lolly. Different titles for different boys. She loved them differently, because they weren’t the same child, but she didn’t love either one of them more than the other. Major, the louder, older boy, was funny. Marshall was quieter and just a little bit sweeter. Natalia had only been around Maveryck and his twin a few hours, but they, too, were different. Like their father and his brother, Major and Marshall were their own person with their own personalities.
“Hey, Daddo! Come play with us,” Major said. Natalia looked over her shoulder, waiting for the disdain. Instead, Maveryck winked at her. He came into the room and lowered himself to sit next to her on the floor where the three of them had been playing with trucks. Maveryck bumped her shoulder with his arm as he reached for one of the toys. Natalia sighed to herself. Maybe she hadn’t screwed up.
Natalia waited for Maveryck to say something to the boys about Jenna, but he never did. He pretended like the shitshow downstairs hadn’t happened. Was that the
