The Billionaire's Secret Quartet

Lydia clutched Thalassa's hand, her fingers trembling slightly with nerves as she whispered, "Was that guy really the father of your kids?"

"Yeah, that's Lysander," Thalassa confirmed.

"Oh my gosh, so he really is our commander! I thought it was just a coincidence of names." Lydia gasped in shock.

Her excitement mixed with anxiety, Lydia confessed, "When I was in the army, Lysander was our unit's commander, and I was one of his soldiers. After he was discharged, I never got the chance to see him again. And now, to think I'm about to treat him like a lab rat..."

That was her former boss, a devilishly tough training officer. How could she not be nervous about not only meeting him again but also having to administer injections to him?
