"Kalon, hun, it's time."

I was shaken awake by Andy,

"Y-you stayed?" I blushed slightly.

"Of course, I'm not an asshole." He kissed my forehead, before dropping down next to me.

"I wish you the best, I do not want to see you leave. You fight, fight hard. Vance is gonna be fighting for you. I promise." He pressed a soft kiss to my lips.

It almost brought tears to my eyes, but I wasn't gonna cry, I was positive there would be tears later. I didn't wanna break down in front of Andy.

Instead I bit my lip roughly. He fluffed my hair before leaving.

"I'm gonna say goodbye to the rest of the boys, I'll come visit you guys soon." I gave him a soft smile and nodded, as he walked out Eli stopped him giving him a goodbye hug, he pushed past Andy shortly after and rushed into bed with me.

Tears were streaming down his face.

"Please don't leave me, Kalon!"

He buried his head into my neck.

"Shhhh, it's okay, it's okay, I don't want to leave you...look if they try to take me I'll start a fight."

"No you won't..." Declan was at the door, he leaned against the door frame. "You need to stay calm and compliant..."

"T-then I'll start a fight!" Eli spoke up.

"No, If they choose to take Kalon, everyone, including Kalon, has to stay calm and listen to the workers so Vance has a chance at fighting for him after, I already tried, I would've murdered them... and that's what Vance told me." He mumbled the last part...

He already though about fighting for me. My heart skipped a beat.

"Oh..." Eli glanced at his lap, and nodded.

"Kalon! Please get dressed and ready! Make the bed." Vance ordered as he walked by. I didn't argue.

I did as he said. Eli followed after me. I was brushing out the wrinkles of my shirt when Blue popped his head in my room.

He softly slipped his hands around my waist.

"Thank you Master. I-I really like you..." he whispered.

I furrowed my eyebrows slightly.

"You know...on the trip..." he blushed. I smirked slightly as I kissed his forehead.

"I don't want you to go." He mumbled. I nodded, as I hugged him back. I held him silently for a few minutes. There was a loud pounding on the door and my heart beat began to speed up.

Panic rushed through my body.

"I-I need to g-get down there..." my voice was weary and unsteady. My whole body shook as I walked down there.

I slowly made my way downstairs I could see them standing in the foyer, there was one old lady, she had glasses off the bridge of her nose. She had a full head of gray hair, I had never seen her before.

"Miss Craigo, it's great to finally meet you." Vance held his hand out for her to shake.

"Mmhm." She hummed holding out her hand. There were two much larger guys behind her, in dark suits.

She held a clip board and a large binder.

"Surprise Mr Haven, we have decided to do a thorough check up on all your boys. After we have received our reports, we think it's fit to make sure you're even responsible enough to handle this...commitment." She had a disgusted look on her face as she invited herself in.

"You must be Kalon? Yes?"

I forced the lump in my throat down.

"Yes ma'am." I smiled.

"Great, let's have a...talk."

She ushered me to the other room, where none of the rest of the boys were.

-

My palms were sweaty, I felt like I was gonna be sick, not only were they targeting Kalon, they were targeting them all.

I had to keep my boys safe, yet all I could do is sit and wait.

She was with Kalon for long, too much. My knee continued to bounce.

"Mr Haven, do you mind if we take a look around?"

"I don't mind at all."

We cleaned it all, there were no toys out, there were no signs of anything, it was all clean. Stop panicking!

They began popping into every room, which was quite a lot, they said hi to a few of the boys.

Finally the door clicked open. My head snapped to it, trying to read Kalons expression.

She stood herself between Kalon and I, my breathing was heavy, I didn't wanna show any signs of uneasiness.

She scribbled on her board, without giving me any word.

Kalon glanced up at me looking at me with his beautiful blue eyes I fell in love with the first day I saw him, through his thick dark lashes, he gave me a soft smile.

It calmed my nerves, my chest became slightly lighter, I could take a breath. Does that mean we are okay?

Don't celebrate too soon.

"Well Mr Haven, Kalon passed, but we're requiring eight weeks of anger management therapy, as well as six weeks of personal cognitive therapy with exposure therapy, which we can give you references, if you have difficulty finding that..." I wanted to scream with happiness, he's staying, he's mine, he's okay. He's here. He's not going anywhere.

"As long as the rest of the boys check out, you will be able to keep your license. I need to speak with Declan Rayle?"

I smiled,

"Yeah yeah, uhm, I'll go get him!" I quickly skipped up the stairs.

Declan was in his room nervously fiddling with a box of cigarettes.

"Really? Put those away!" I scolded.

"I knew it was you, I could tell by your footsteps." He tapped his ears. "Wolf hearing?"

"So you heard?" He nodded.

"What about Milo?"

"It'll be okay, he can hide his belly, I'll give him a loose hoodie."

Declan followed me back downstairs.

"This should be quick." She scribbled as he took him into the other room.

I quickly rushed up to Milo, throwing him a baggy hoodie, I explained the situation to him. His eyes filled with fear.

I walked over and crouched down as he sat on the edge of his bed.

"I'm not gonna let them take you away, Kalons staying, so are you, so is Declan, and Adorjan, Blue, Eli, River and Lycus...I'm not letting them take any of you. Even this little one..." I kissed his swollen belly. He blushed as I glanced up to him. He put on the sweatshirt and followed me downstairs.

It only took a few minutes for each boy, but those few minutes were agonizingly slow.

We couldn't even talk in between them due to her body guards, we sat in awkward silence. My knee bounced nervously as we sat in the living room waiting for Milo, he was the last one.

Declan rubbed his knuckles nervously. If they found out Milo was pregnant it would be over for me, I would loose them all.

My body itched, I wanted to hug them all, but we were being watched so I couldn't.

The door clicked open, Milo had a huge smile on his face.

That was it. We're in the clear!

"I'm sure the rest of my team will be in for their regular visit, please track Kalons therapy time, Blue may also benefit from some cognitive therapy as well, but it will not be required yet. If you see a negative fall on his actions that may have to come into play." She informed me as she scribbled.

She nodded as her heels clicked on the floor, the tall men followed after.

"Have a good day." She waved before heading out the door.

"You too." The second the door shut they boys started screaming, a tear slipped from my eyes, we were all filled with so much happiness.

This home, this family, this love, was all so perfect.

Each and everyone of these boys held my heart, and god, they held it so fucking tight. I joined in hugging each and everyone of them. Kalon was a complete mess, as Adorjan held the sobbing boy.

"I w-was so sca-scared..." he muttered, as salty tears rushed down his face.

"Hey, I told you didn't I? I wasn't gonna let them take you." I rubbed his back as he let go of Adorjan and fell into my chest. I continue rubbing his back with my arms wrapped around him.

"I love you, I love you so much, Vance." He cried.

"I love you, I love all of you. That's a promise." I spoke loudly. They all hugged us, in big bear hug.

"Guys...is it snowing?" Blue spoke softly, I glanced over the boys.

"I think it is..." I laughed softly, sure enough a fluffy white powder was falling from the sky, it wasn't often we got snow in London.

"Can we go? Please, please, daddy?" Eli fluttered his eyelashes at me with a pout. I wasn't gonna say no to that cute face. He bolted out the door before I said anything.

"Eli! Mind reading!" I shook my head as the rest of the boys followed. The twins flopped on their back and began making snow angels, as Kalon stuck his tongue out catching snow flakes with his mouth, Adorjan walked over and stuck his fingers down his throat making Kalon gag, ruining the moment.

He slapped Adorjans chest, as Adorjan chuckled and Kalon aggressively made a snowball and pounded him with it.

"Oh jeez." Adorjan spat out. Declan slammed a snow ball into Adorjan as well.

"Oh wow! Fuck you!" He spat as he made his own snow ball, that completely missed and hit Milo.

"Hey! I'm carrying a child!" We all laughed as we made snow balls and began hitting each other with the snowballs, giggles and shrieks were filling the air.

I couldn't be more happy.
