Chapter 407 - Sound Of Cello Part 1

Natasha gently shifts her fingers to the fret of the cello as it made a low sound. She smiled as her twins are falling asleep. It's part of what she did whenever the twins are crying, or they don't like sleeping. She would play a lullaby for them to sleep. After five minutes of playing, she softly ends the song and she put the bow on the stand of the cello.

She put the cello on the stood and she stood to cheek on the babies. She gently covered their crib with mosquito net just in case if some mosquito entered the room since the house that James bought is in the forest and away from the city.

He would always come home late because of traffic though she insisted on staying in the city with him, he wouldn't just let her stay there since Kuznetsov Assassins are active in the city and since she's part of the Dragon Empire, it will be killing two birds with one stone.

She checked the baby cam if its working and then she closed the balcony and locked it. She wanted to go to the living room to wait for him, but she can't leave the twins in a few moments when there's a threat.

She saw James' car from the window driving to their long driveway. She wanted to run and greet him as a usual wife would do.

Suddenly, Nathaniel cried, and she strode fast to the crib and removed the mosquito net. Nathaniel reached his sister's hand and he seemed to wake her up. She smiled at him.

"You want to see daddy?

" She asked and she took Nathaniel so he wouldn't bother his sister. The door opened and James entered with a big smile.

"Daddy's here.

" She murmured and James put everything away. He removed his shirt and then he went to the bathroom to wash his hands.

He came back and kissed her lips and he took Nathaniel and he kissed his forehead.

"Why are you still awake?

" He asked him softly. His son looked at him and reached his nose.

"Why won't you relax, and I'll take your dinner?

" She said. He went to bed and play with Nathaniel while she went downstairs to prepare his food.

She found Evan there with a creased brow. Her cousin is busy reading with whatever books it is.

"Hey, do you want milk?

" She asked. Evan nodded.

"You seemed to be sleepless.

"

Evan watched her prepare his milk and then re-heat her husband's food. He put down his book and looked around.

"It's just been odd these past few days.

" He started.

"What's odd?

" She asked.

"In this house. I think it's better if you could talk to James to stay at his parents, rather than here.

"

She leaned on the counter table.

"I've been sleepless and as I looked outside my window, I keep seeing a silhouette at the bark of the tree staring at your balcony room.

" He murmured.

"I thought that it's one of the guards, but the guards are on their posts.

"

Her heart started pumping fast.

"Wake grandpa, we are leaving.

" She said sharply.

She immediately ran upstairs, and she closed the windows and curtains. Like in panic, James watched her.

"Babe? What's wrong?

" He asked. She took away baby Natalia from the crib and gave it to James.

"We are leaving.

" She told him.

"What?

" He creased his brows.

"I—I don't have time to explain but it's my instincts.

"

James reached her arm to stop him. He reached his phone and called the guards. They answered.

"Ready the car and search everywhere for something odd.

"

"Yes, sir.

"

He hung up and reached her face.

"Calm down.

" He kissed her lips.

"I can't leave the kids these past few days…

" She muttered with shaky hands. It's true. She can't leave them at all. She felt like every time she would turn around there will be something that would kill her babies.

"Evan just saw a person hiding at the bark of the tree staring at our room.

"

"Okay…

" he nodded and kissed her.

"Calm down. We are leaving.

"

"I'm sorry, I know you are tired.

"

"Baby,

" He pulled her head to make her forehead leaned to him.

"You don't need to be sorry.

" He stood and looked down at the twin.

"Why won't you stay with our babies and I'll take care of everything?

"

She nodded as she sat beside the twin.

James called their maid and the immediately went to their room. He turned off the lights and turn on the dim lights as he stared at the curtains.

"Pack up the babies' clothes and a few of them.

" He told her. Then he took a few clothes for him and her. Since they always leave a few clothes in his parent's house, he only took valuables. Then she took her jacket and baby coats. He went to them and he wrapped up their babies.

"Call mom and tell them that we are staying at their house.

"

She nodded and call Fiona. She explained to her that they are leaving the house and they need to stay at theirs. Fiona said that she will prepare their room right away and the crib for the twin.

Just as they are done with their bags, the telephone rung and James answered it.

"Yes?

"

"Sir, two cars are upcoming with Dragon Empire Flags.

"

James stopped and he took his tablet as he checked the cameras. Andy sent him a message that he sent bodyguards from Freya's men to escort them to their parent's house. He sighed. Andy knew that something bad will happen.

He immediately put his shirt on, gather the phones and tablets, and then the computer putting it on one bag. He took the chargers for her phone and then he took the baby carrier and put the babies.

Soon, they are leaving the house and Evan and her Grandfather is waiting. They were escorted to the first car and they will ride on the second car.

They set the baby carriers on their lap close to each other as the four-by-four car drove away. Soon, big bikes followed them at each side. James never expected that Andy would immediately send guards to them.

Soon, enough they arrived at the front of subdivision safely and its kilometer drive as they reached the driveway of the Mansion. Outside the house, Fiona and Aaron are waiting. They stepped out of the car with the babies and Old Mondragon is waiting in the living room and he can't wait to see the twin.

"Would you wait for a threat until you stay here with my grandchildren?

" Alex scolded James. James laughed a little and watched how his grandfather entertains the babies.

"Good thing that I prepared some soup and some foods for light dinner,

" Fiona told.

"Come, Evan dear.

"

Evan obeyed and her grandfather sat on the sofa and watched how Alex entertain the twin who is tittering.

James rubbed his stomach.

"I'm sorry.

" She murmured.

"Don't worry about it.

" He kissed her forehead and then his phone rung.

"Sir, we had reviewed the CCTV from recording three days ago and I already sent it to you.

"

"Good. Secure the house, each corner of it.

"

"Yes, Sir.

"

"Pops, do you want to sleep?

" She asked her grandfather and her grandfather waved her off.

"I am fine, dear. Maybe I'll stay with the twin for a while. Why won't you eat first with your husband and maybe relaxed a bit?

"

"Yeah, you two should relax and make me more grandchildren.

" Alex waved them off. James laughed and throw his arm around her.

"Come on, babe. Let's eat first so we could make more babies.

" He whispered and she nudged him.

***

Andy took the milk that Zach gave to her and he sat beside her and rubbed her stomach.

"Why are you so tired?

" Zachary asked.

"I told you to relax more.

"

"I need to finish a few papers before I take leave. Besides, I just had a vision. I need to make sure that James and Natasha with the twin will arrive safely at the Mansion.

"

"Finish your milk so I could massage you.

" He kissed her temple.

"Thank you, Zach.

"

"For what?

" he asked a little puzzled.

"For being so supportive. You always take care of me and our baby and protect us.

"

Zachary smiled at her in a very charming way.

"Love, that's my responsibility. Besides, I had missed so much for two years of being away from you. No one is there to take care of you, and I break my promise of taking care of you until we grow old. But now, chances are here, and I will never break it again.

" He patted her head.

"Finish your milk so I could cuddle with my wife and my baby.

"

"Okay.

"

Soon, Andy finished her milk, and Zachary massaged her legs and feet. He snuggled to her. But she couldn't sleep. Her baby doesn't want to sleep at all. What was she thinking? She had dreamed about the raid and on how Natasha took the babies together with her cousin and grandfather to the secret room secured with locks.

James is outside and she heard that she was shot. The panic that Natasha is showing in her vision pained her. She was too bothered to sleep.
