Alex, however, reminded Sophie of Jeremy and Jennette. Sweet, funny, and yet still serious when the situation presented it.

"We'll take good care of her, Alex. If at any point you need to see her just floo us and I'll open up the apparation for you like I did today. Enjoy your summer!"

Once he was off, Sophie ushered the girls inside and went to the kitchen as the three girls ran off in their own separate directions. Walking over to the fridge she pulled out the essentials for lunch. She knew after all of the exploring the girls were bound to do that they would all be very hungry.


Jake finally walked down the stairs after dropping off all Violet's luggage in the girl's temporary room. Merlin, that girl had a lot of clothes. He assumed that wasn't even the load of it looking at the little girl. As he panted down the stairs he saw a very confused looking girl in his foyer. Her face seemed to ring a bell with him. What was it? Maybe it was the eyes or maybe it was the hard features, but he could not place the face. It would come to him later.

When she called out for her friends, Jake pointed up stairs and said, "Pink door to the left."

After giving out directions he went into the kitchen to see his wife at work for lunch. While she worked she chewed on her bottom lip for concentration and kept brushing a single strand of her brunette hair out of her face. He leaned on the frame of the door to watch his wife some more. Everything she did was with great care and precision. She was everything he had ever wanted and sometimes the best moments were when she was just doing something as simple as making lunch. Her air about her would just send sparks through the room.


She finally looked up and blushed under his gaze. He always did that, watched her with a soft smile on his lips. It was a habit he had adapted at Hogwarts and he refused to let it go when they began to date and then married.

"Why are you starring at me? You know it makes me self-concious."


"You think it's a crime I stare at my beautiful wife? Well then I don't mind being a criminal. Put me in chains warden." He joked moving toward his wife and wrapping his arms around her middle from behind.

"Stop it," She whined, "We have three little girls in the house."

"I know, I just carried ALL of Violet's luggage in the house. Speaking of those girls, the one who must be Elektra by process of elimination. I feel like I know her. Any thoughts as to why?" He asked kissing the top of his wife's head.

Sophie froze. She knew this question was coming, but this was fast. He had put the pieces together that took Sophie a while and an assistant by the name of Alex. What would she tell him? The truth of course. But how would he handle that truth? Not well she supposed. Connor Draven was always a sore spot with her husband. The scar he had on his lower back was proof of that. She thought that the scar was small being only a few centimeters big, but Jake saw it as a sign of weakness. Of course that day when that scar was made Jake returned back a larger one on Connor's calf, but still men hated signs of weakness.

Turning away from her husband she went back to her task. As nonchalant as she could muster she said, "Oh yeah, she's Connors kid."


"Connor Draven?" Jake spat. The name didn't even need to be answered because he knew it the moment she mentioned Connor's first name. That little slippery git produced spawn? Who would even want to reproduce with him? Not Sophie... he had won that battle a long time ago. But now with his daughter under Jake's roof he was bound to come poking around back in his life. That was NOT acceptable. He was going to have to stay out of his life like he had for over ten years now. The last time the pair of them had heard from Connor was when he came back looking for Sophie. Luckily that day she was not home and she still never knew about it, but Jake did. That day was one that would forever stay etched in his memory. Never forget...

"No, Sophie! The kid can stay, but he is not coming!"


"Be mature about this!"

"No! The kid has given me no cause to hate her so I;m fine with her. But her father? I HATE him. He cannot ever come here. Do you understand?"

"You will NOT talk to me like I am Selina. I am not your daughter. I am your wife. So check yourself Jake Skylar! And he is a grown man as are you. You will not let things that happened when you were teenagers define who you are as men!"

"We will talk about this later." Jake said. He did not want to upset Sophie anymore. But he was going to let it be known. This was his castle and his queen and princess were his. No knight was going to come in and mess that dynamic up!
As Elektra kept looking around she turned and saw Selina's father and she stood still. Her jaw dropped slightly and then quickly swallowed spit. "Uh...uh...thank you sir." She said softly and then ran off to the pink door that she saw. She was not surprised to see a pink door for Violet. "Umm Selina I didn't- I didn't know your father was home too. He told to find the pink door and- Oh, bloody hell." She stopped by the door and then slowly walked inside the room with hesitation. AAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!! ALL OF THIS PINK!!!!!!! Don't faint Elektra! Don't faint!!! Elektra was speechless as she looked around the room. Wow Selina really went all out for Violet. It did match Violet's bubbly charm and her bubbly everything basically. Elektra chuckled and rubbed her arm.
