"Arius, stop it," I said, giggling.
"No, I don't think I will," Arius replied, kissing the side of my neck, making me moan.
Ari moved his head down to my ear and said, "My pretty girl needs to be fucked."
Just as Arius was about to remove my thin nightgown, there was a knock on our door.
"Who is it?" Arius asked, annoyed.
"Daddy?" a small voice asked from outside.
"Oh, shit," Arius said, jumping on me and running towards the bathroom as I got up to open the door.
"What are you doing out of bed, baby girl?" I asked, picking up my youngest.
"Can I sleep with you and Daddy, Mommy?" Asteria asked me.
My precious doll, how could I say no to her.
"Of course, darling, you know you're always welcome with us," I said, kissing her cute, chubby cheeks.
Arius came out of the bathroom after he calmed himself down and immediately went to pick Asteria out of my arms.
"Multem magna princeps" Arius cooed in Latin. (My little princess)
Being the Daddy's girl she is, our little one cuddled herself into his arms. Ari placed a soft kiss on her head, bringing her to our bed. Just as I was about to walk to the bed, I heard two pairs of feet racing towards our room.
My two babies jumped into my arms and said, "Mama."
I grunted at the force of the two and smiled.
"My boys are getting so big, soon I won't be able to hold you."
I brought them to the bed and lied down with them alongside Ari and Asteria, Jupiter right next to me, and Orion in the middle.
"Little devils, have you come to join us too?" Arius asked our boys.

They eagerly nodded as we placed kisses on their heads. Jupiter was the oldest triplet while Orion was in the middle and, of course, our little diva, Asteria, as our youngest. Arius had gotten me pregnant almost right after we had gotten married. He had been utterly obsessed with my pregnant belly and after I had begun to show he would not leave my side in fear of me getting hurt.
Jupiter and Orion were just like their father, devious, but sweet. They somehow find a way to get what they want, but always protect the ones they love. And like their father, the two are terribly protective of their little sister, not that Asteria needs protection. A face of an angel, but a duplicate of her father, Asteria, is the ringleader of the three siblings. She can make both her brothers and Arius do absolutely anything for her. Although at times even I can't say no to her enchanting face.
"Daddy, I think I want a boyfriend," Asteria said while we were eating dinner one night.
"In your dreams, princess," Arius said, scoffing.
Asteria widened her eyes at Arius saying no to her for the first time. Small tears pooled in her eyes, and I knew we were about to witness a breakdown from our little diva.
"Daddy's right, Asteria, no boys," Jupiter said, supporting Ari, who also got a nod from Orion.
Asteria left her seat to climb onto my lap and tuck her head into the nook between my neck and head.
"Asteria, baby, they're just kidding," I said.
"No, I'm..." Arius was about to say before I gave a pointed glare.
"You can have a boyfriend when you are as old as me," I whispered into her ear while wiping her tears away.

"Promise?" she asked.
"I promise," I replied, kissing her.
Arius and our boys all rolled their eyes at my comment, but I gave them a look to make sure they didn't say another word to Asteria.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Baby," Arius said, walking up to me before placing a kiss on my cheek.
"Mama," both Orion and Jupiter said.
They had a frustrated look on their faces before gesturing to me to bend down. I did as they said and when I got to their level, they kissed my cheek like their father.
"Are you copying Daddy?" I asked my devil boys.
"Of course, mama" Orion said like it's the most obvious thing in the world.
"We have to learn how to be big and strong like them so we can protect you and Astra" Jupiter said.
"Oh my babies,"I said.
"Until you are Daddy's age, I'll be the one protecting you guys and your sister, not the other way around."
The pair nodded, but I'm sure what I said went in one way and came out the other. Jupiter and Orion have a tendency to ignore some of the things Arius and I say.
They ran off to go and play while Ari gave me a sheepish smile.
I just rolled my eyes at him before walking away.
I smiled at the memories before tightening my grip around my family. Arius's wings were expanded around us like another blanket, keeping us safe. In this little room was my entire world, where the love of my life and my beautiful children were.
"I love you," Arius said to us.
"I love you'' I replied, filled with three more replies from our children.
Life couldn't get any better than this.
