#Chapter 445: A Moment Alone

Nathan I rolled over with a soft smile on my face, the soft light of dawn filtering through the curtains. A quick glance at the clock told me that there was still a little time to relax before it was time to head to work, and the house was quiet, indicating that the twins were still sleeping. Instinctively, I reached for the familiar warmth of Olivia next to me. But my hand found only the cool, empty sheets. A frown creased my forehead. It wasn’t like her to be up this early, not after the late nights we had been having recently. “I guess she’s awake already.” Pushing myself up, I swung my legs over the side of the bed, rubbing the sleep from my eyes. The house was quiet, the kind of silence that usually meant the twins were still asleep. I padded down the hallway, expecting to find Olivia in the nursery or maybe in the kitchen. Instead, I found Clint sitting in the living room, surrounded by toys and the giggling twins. He looked up, a grin spreading across his face.
