I growl watching her leave standing up and rushing out the door only to see Zena grabbing
her arm, I pull her into my room and sit pointing at the chair, picking up the planner I hold it out "I need this fixed, it's over planned and leaves no time for the children, you've always done
it perfectly".

I frown we she snorts looking into it "Wow big shocker your pet made sure to fill it with fucking her but nothing for the girls and you never noticed, you hardly seen or heard from them again, you didn't noticed that your favorite cook died because intruders came in and almost killed your daughters. You stopped taking care of the wine business your wines started to taste like shit, the girls and I spent weeks handling the complaints, and the fits consumers raised, you lost money because of this, we handled the hiring of new maids and cooks because your loyal staff killed them to protect the girls because they let intruders in, it was the staff and your daughters fighting them. 59 employees were killed out of 63 only four of us lived I only did because Freda died saving my life and the babies, your girls started
helping with the work because they saw that the staff helped and now they needed help, they changed the rules in response to this, you never noticed the girls have been running the business, village, and castle and managed to get it running better, faster, and made it so the staff's loyalty is from respect and trust not fear and terror".

I look at her shocked "What changes?"

Zena rolls her eyes walking to my desk digging around she comes back handing me some papers.

I look up seeing Zena has left and my planner is on the table "What the fuck"

I sigh getting up following the sounds of my children I find Cassandra holding Faye out with
her butt to her sisters "Attack of the stinky baby butt" she yells chasing them as Bela and Daniela run yelling about how bad she smells, I shake my head laughing as I take Faye "are you helping Cassandra torment your sister?"

She smiles gurgling happily with her hand in her mouth I smile changing her then check Elora and Rome sitting down I watch as Elora chews her foot and Rome chew a rubber bone frowning I take it "This is a dog toy, why does he have this?"

Daniela looks at me and points at him "Let him chew your finger and you see why"

I sigh reaching down and carefully rub his gums "he is teething already" They nod as Daniela holds up a finger with a band-aid around it "he bite to the bone, Nana put this on it said it would heal just slower I was told keep it on today."

I nod seeing Dani looking at Rome "How did you have a boy mom, I thought you needed a male to have a boy?"

Taking a breath I sigh "After mother saved me I asked her to look into why I was born with
both male and female parts we found my DNA is similar but not, it's like I was two people it left us with more questions than answers so she started looking into it and found other people
with similar things when modern medicine found answers she looked into this".

They look at me confused "Vanishing twin syndrome refers to the condition in which one twin dies and is absorbed by the other or Human Chimera I was a twin and absorbed my brother in a way that made me have both male and female reproductive system fully working".

I look at the girls and see them working it out "So your brother gave you what you needed to have kids?"

I nod and point at Rome "That's how you got a brother".

Cassandra pokes Rome's belly "Hear that demon you and the girls are special gifts from Mom's brother".

I chuckle shaking my head "Girls it's come to my attention that you have been running the castle, village, and winery I've treated you like small children forgetting that you are adults I think it's time I treat you as adults, let you help with stuff instead of telling you to go play."

The girls look at me shocked but excited I smile pulling them up holding them close "Just remember no matter what, you will always be my babies and what saved me from myself from the day you girls were brought to me".
