Mum to twins but fated to the alpha

Chapter Two

Isabella.

I breathed a sigh of relief as the plane touched down and I felt the wheels bounce once before they start to glide along the runway. I love my sons but 5 and half hours in a confined space with them had me exhausted.

" Mammy, Mammy, Mammy we're here. WOOHOO!" Jack squeals in delight as he leans to look out of the window.

Jacob pushes him back and pouts at me.

" Stop looking out of my window" he snaps at Jack.

" Jacob isn't sharing the window mammy" he winges to me.

" Jacob let Jack look out of the window you know its not just yours. You boys really need to learn to share".

So much for a nice relaxing break I think to myself as I look at them both now scowling at me.

They are identical and both have my blond hair and a cute button nose. When they do smile, unlike now, they have the most beautiful little dimples and a few freckles spotted along their noses. Their eyes come from their father and as much as it pains me I see some of their fathers stubbornness in them too.

" Ladies and Gentleman this is your Captain speaking. Welcome to Hawaii. The temperature outside its currently 26°c and the local time is 4pm. Thankyou for flying with us today and we hope you have a pleasant time".

I stand and retrieve our bags from the overhead lockers and gesture for the boys to follow me. They are both grinning from ear to ear now flashing their bright white teeth and the argument from a few minutes ago seems to have already been forgotten.

As we make our way off the plane im hoping this holiday will be the break I need.

I pull the rental car over outside a stunning hotel and turn to Jack and Jacob sitting behind me. " Here we are our home for the next two weeks"

" Its awesome" shouts Jacob barely containing his excitement.

I climb out of the car and look towards the hotel and catch the eye of the valet who rushes over to help me with our bags. " Please allow me Miss" He says as I reach to get one of our suitcases from the car.

" Oh I don't mind i can manage" I reply to him with a smile.

"Please miss, the boss is watching and he'll have my head if he sees a lovely lady like yourself moving her own luggage whilst I'm stood here" he says in a voice barely above a whisper. I steal a glance towards the hotel and sure enough a stern looking man is staring in our direction with a very annoyed look on his face.

"Ok" I sigh " but I at least want to give you a generous tip for your assistance"

He smiles broadly at me. " you and your lovely boys just go and get checked in and ill bring your bags up to your room" he gives me a quick salute before he turns to make his way to the rear of the car to unload the rest of the bags.

I scan the keycard on the hotel room door and push the door open. Before I can step inside , Jacob and Jack barrelled past me into the room and look around quickly then seeing the bedroom they both run towards it and jump up onto one of the single beds each.

" I want this bed" Jack squeals as he bounces in the air.

" I want this one" Jacob yells as he jumps on the other bed.

My eyes widen at them as I realised they have just agreed on something without an argument.

Maybe this was going to be a nice holiday after all.

" You can have those beds, its nice to see you both enjoying yourselves already" I laugh as I turn and make my way back into the living room area.

Its stunning white marble floors are spotless and there's a lovely purple two seater sofa and a matching purple chair.

On the wall is a beautiful painting of a sunset overlooking a harbour which I assume is of a local area.

Towards the back of the room is two sliding French doors which I walk towards and open. I step through them onto the large balcony and gasp the view is simply breathtaking. Directly below is the pool area with a large pool and some beautiful white sunbeds the ones with curtains and canopies. Less then 100 feet away is the beach with white sand and clear turquoise water.

As I'm stood staring at water imagining dipping my toes in, I'm interrupted by a knock on the door. I take one last look out at the beach before I tear myself away and go back inside to open the door.

Stood on the other side is the lovely valet from earlier along with a very full luggage trolley.

I look at it feeling guilty that he had to unload it all and then drag it all the way to our room. He cathes me looking and says in a very cheery voice " Not to worry miss, its my pleasure. What do you think of your room? Its one of the best the hotel has to offer."

" I love it" I reply relaxing slightly as he doesn't seem to out of breath from the effort of moving our bags.

" Thats great" he laughs " I'll just unload your luggage and then be on my way" He moves past me and effortlessly removes the luggage from the rack.

As he leaves I insist he takes a tip for all his help and then shout the boys.

" Right you two time for our medicine then let's get down to the pool shall we?"

" Yes,yes, yes" they both shout in unison.
