The Alpha's Human Surrogate 38. Daddy!
Sophia’s POV I turn to look at who is calling me and see two kids, a boy and a girl, standing at the opposite apartment. At first, I don’t recognize them, but when the young girl suddenly rushes towards me, I realize it’s Daisy and Daniel. Daisy pushes Jake aside in her excitement to reach me, and I eagerly open my arms, ready to embrace my niece and nephew. “Sophia!” Daisy exclaims, wrapping her small arms tightly around my waist. I return the hug, feeling a rush of warmth and affection. “Hey, Daisy! It’s so good to see you,” I say, my voice filled with genuine joy. I then shift my attention to Daniel, who is standing a few steps away, observing us silently. “And hello, Daniel.” Daniel nods in acknowledgment but doesn’t say anything. I understand his reserved nature and appreciate his presence nonetheless. I extend my arms towards him, offering a hug. Daniel hesitates for a moment, but then steps forward, allowing me to embrace him briefly. Although he doesn’t show much familiari

Sophia's POVAfter all the ruckus that happened outside, I take Jake and Tyler into the apartment, closing the door behind them. They both glance around, their attention momentarily captivated by the aesthetics of the room. The events that just unfolded outside seem to fade into the background, but I know Jake and Tyler well enough to realize they won't let it go unmentioned for long.Jake's gaze shifts from one corner to another, taking in the carefully curated details. "Wow, Sophia, this place is amazing," he exclaims, admiration lacing his voice. Tyler nods in agreement, a slight smile forming on his lips. "It's so perfectly suited to your taste. You really hit the jackpot with this one."As they take in the surroundings, their eyes darting from one corner to another, I observe their expressions closely. They seem impressed, their voices filled with admiration as they comment on how perfectly suited this apartment is for me. It's both comforting and amusing to see how well they kno

Alexander’s POVI lead the children through the front door, and as we step inside, a strange silence fills the air. Even Daisy, usually bursting with enthusiasm, is unusually quiet. I can sense that whatever happened outside has affected her. But now is not the time to unravel the reasons behind their somber demeanor. I guide them into the living room, a space that has already been meticulously arranged and made ready for our arrival. The mansion's deep cleaning maids and servants had worked diligently to ensure everything was in order. I can vividly recall Emilia's initial reaction when I shared my plan to buy a new apartment and move our family there. Her face had contorted with disbelief and frustration, accusing me of trying to escape from her by leaving our luxurious mansion behind. However, I patiently explained that my intention was to bring our children closer to their mother and to court Sophia.Surprisingly, Emilia eventually relented, even giving me a reassuring pat on th

Alexander’s POVMy gaze shifts between my children, overwhelmed with love and gratitude. "Absolutely, Daisy. We'll make sure she knows just how much she means to us, but you also have to help Daddy win mommy's heart, OK?"Daisy looks surprised and clueless as she asks her brother, "Win mommy's heart. What does that mean?"She seems genuinely curious, making me laugh and I notice her brother laughing too. He knicks her on the head and clicks his tongue, "To make her like Daddy, of course. You're a baby so you wouldn't know all that. Dummy!""You... Daddy, Daniel called me dummy!" Daisy scowled and retaliated by knocking him on the head too. He however doesn't stop laughing at her and stuck his tongue at her as he chanted, "Dummy... dummy... you're a dummy..."His words only infuriates the girl as she continues to insist. "Take that back, I'm not a dummy!" She seems really offended.They launched into a playful banter, chasing each other around the room. I don't stop them knowing they

Alexander’s POVDaniel shifts uneasily before responding, "Daddy, Daisy... she had an accident in the kitchen. She tripped on a jar, and now everything is a mess."My heart skips a beat, worry coursing through me like a jolt of electricity. "Is she hurt?" I ask, my voice trembling slightly.Thankfully, Daniel reassures me, "No, Daddy, she's not hurt. But her clothes are all dirty now."Without hesitation, I rise from my chair, the urgency in my movements clear as I inquire further, "Take me to her. Let's go to the kitchen."Daniel nods, and we make our way swiftly through the office corridors toward the kitchen, where chaos awaits. As we arrive, my eyes meet a distressing scene. There lies Daisy on the floor, her face contorted with tears, her clothes stained crimson. Sauce has spilled, creating a disheveled mosaic across the floor and adorning Daisy's once-pristine attire.Concern floods every fiber of my being, and I quickly rush to Daisy's side. Kneeling down, I gently cradle her t

Sophia's POVIt's been about an hour since Jake and Tyler left. They were a huge help, and now everything in the house is all set and looking even better than before. I take a moment to relax, and my mind starts to wander to Alexander, who now lives next door. How am I going to face him or see the kids? We signed an agreement to stay out of each other's lives, and I agreed to keep my distance from the children after they were born. But I really want to see them. Even before I found out they might be mine, I loved spending time with them. I'm feeling really nervous and anxious as I think about it.Just as I'm lost in my thoughts, my phone rings, and I see my father's name on the caller ID. Surprised and excited, I quickly answered the call, not expecting to hear from him. He has been recovering well, and receiving a call directly from him is a pleasant surprise."Hey, Dad!" I exclaim, a hint of joy evident in my voice. "I didn't expect to hear from you. How are you feeling?"My father'

Tyler’s POVMy heart skips a beat as Sophia's voice echoes through the phone, exclaiming Alexander's name. Shock floods over me, momentarily rendering me speechless. In this very moment, Jake swings open the door, sensing the tension in the air and joining me in the room."What happened?" Jake's voice is laced with urgency, mirroring the intensity of my own thoughts. I take a deep breath, desperately trying to steady my racing mind, and finally manage to respond, "That guy, Alexander, is at Sophia's place."Jake's eyes widen, and his entire demeanor shifts to a state of high alertness. He turns to face me, his expression serious. "Should we go there?" he asks without hesitation, ready to jump into action."Hold on," I reply, my voice tinged with impatience. I strain my ears, hoping to catch even a fraction of the conversation between Sophia and Alexander. However, my attempts to eavesdrop are abruptly interrupted when Sophia bids her farewell and abruptly ends the call.A sigh escape

Sophia’s POVAs I open the door, I am surprised to see Alexander standing at the doorway, the two kids in his arms. Daisy is completely asleep, and her head is on his shoulders, the ponytail of her hair drooping on his chest, and her brother stirs up when he hears the door open. He rouses and looks up from his father’s embrace, reaching out to rub his eyes dizzily. I also notice the puppy he is carrying in his arms; it is the puppy from that day at the supermarket.I am stunned by their sudden appearance, but I can’t help but think inwardly about how they are so cute. Not to mention how they all really seem like a family, and Alexander really looks like a father; I just never thought that he would really look like a father figure.Which brings me back to reality – why is the whole bunch at my doorstep? I am about to ask when I hear Jake’s voice in the background, reminding me that I am still on a call. I quickly say to the receiver, “I’ll call you back later, Tyler,” I say before han
