Ours
Chapter Five : Breakfast.

Jace POV

Waking up earlier than usual, I couldn't sleep I was so excited for the day to begin. I skip to the kitchen to start breakfast. It's baby Nala's first breakfast with us and I want it to be special.

I decided to make pancakes, with chocolate chips. You can't go wrong with that and I'm sure she'll love it, everyone loves pancakes. I decided to take advantage of being up so early, so I decided to put a batch of my famous cookies in the oven. I'm not above bribery to win the little heart, and little sugar won't hurt.

By the time I got everything ready and on the table and making sure it's perfect for the little girl, the first impression is everything. I turn around to see a scene so cute it made my heart melt.

Still rubbing her eyes sleepily with one hand and holding her teddy with the other, her hair is all messed up from sleep, there stands our baby Nala.

"Good morning sweetheart,” I say with a big grin on my face and it takes all of me self-control not to run to hug and kiss her.

Nala POV

I woke up with light streaming on my face. Where am 12? I smell pancakes. Yum, when was the last time I had any, probably before my mum died. My stomach chose that moment to growl, when the last time I ate was, I can't remember.

So Nala the plan is to follow the smell and see if I can get any. Sound like a good plan in my head, nothing wrong with asking my kidnappers for food.

Walking toward the smell with Leo still in my arm, he's my friend and protector. I reach what seems to be the kitchen, wow it put Martha Stewart kitchen to shame. A guy about 6 feet tall with broad shoulders and dark brown hair has his back turned to me while setting everything. I really wish to get some food it looks amazing. I was still eye fucking the food when the guy turns toward me and talk. Ohh shit what did he just said?

I mumble a good morning just to be on the safe side and his face break into a big smile, he looks handsome and I can't help but give him a shy smile.

"I'm Jace and I know you to be Nala. Now come on pumpkin let's get some yummy into your tummy" he says teasingly.

I giggle and go sit on the chair he pulled for me, I'm not saying no to food. He set a big plate in front of me with pancakes, whipped cream, strawberries, and bananas, Yuk I hate bananas, next, he asks me if I want milk or juice. "Juice please" I answer him barley a whisper but he seems to be able to hear me fine.

"Dig in pumpkin, the rest will be up soon"

I don't know who the rest he's talking about is and I'm too hungry to care, I start eating quickly like a starved person which I probably am

Halfway through my plate the twins walk in, dark is, even more, grumpier then I remember him to be yesterday, while the light is skipping happily he looks at me and say in a sing like voice "Morning sugar, had a good sleep”

I choke on my food first but eventually look up to say "yeah I did thank you" my voice is low again, I don't know what it is but these guys are just reeking dominance. They kidnaped me and gave me food, I probably should be worried if my food is laced with something. Isn't this how they lurk you into their shady business?

I go back to eating only this time slower my food is almost gone and I want to flavor every last bite. I'm not sure when my next meal will be or even if I'll get the next one.

Next, the giant gets in the kitchen I thought I was dreaming last night when a giant came in and rocked me to sleep. No it's the same guy he's not really a giant he's about 6'5 and that compared to my petit size is a giant.

For some weird reason, my brain doesn't register fear from the giant, I feel safe like nothing can hurt me with him around. I cut my own train of thoughts and shake my head he's not mine, he doesn't have to protect me, hell he's probably the one to hurt me

He looks at me with gentle grey eyes and says “finish your breakfast baby girl when you are done we're going to talk”.

He then proceeds to pour a cup of coffee black and leave the kitchen.

Suddenly I'm not hungry anymore, I push my plate away with only the bananas remaining even with all my hunger I still skipped those.

Jace notice my movement and talk softly to me " No need to be afraid of him, he's kind of the boss around here but he's a big softie, you want more pancakes?"

I shake my head no, not trusting my voice and feeling very small and afraid. Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the Findɴovel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

He's going to kick me out now, his charity is over I'm going to sleep on the street tonight and there would be no one to hold me.

A hand land on my shoulder and I yelp, too taken into my own thoughts I look up and it's the dark twin but he's smiling at me "come on sweetie let's go talk to him and get this over with".

He offers me his hand and I take it, mine is tiny compared to his big hand but the safety of it feels good while it lasts.
