They each finished up the tasks at hand to be able to prepare dinner, and sat down together at the table. Noah couldn’t help the way that he watched the twins and their mother, nor how he flooded the attuned bond with such immense amounts of love and joy and pride. While it wasn’t the circumstances they would have chosen (seasons ago it may have been for the demigod, but he had moved on from those notions), it was what was before them. Noah couldn’t stop the way his heart felt as he watched his children fill their bellies and then look at each other and yawn.
”We will need to get bigger beds for you.” Noah laughed, remembering how their last night of sleep was spent in the nursery in their shared crib. ”Maybe Sah or Deimos will come over and make one tomorrow. For now, we can have a sleepover before the hearth.” Noah smiled at Cordelia, glacier eyes twinkling.
Then, the family set off to the next tasks. They put away food, cleaned up what Noah and Cordelia had been doing when the twins arrived, moved furs and blankets and cushions to the living space, and then snuggled in together.
The Forsaken sighed, content, and slept with his wife under one arm, his daughter under the other, and his son sprawled across his lap.
