Chapter 63 Symphony Date Night

Saturday morning, Thea woke up to three identical faces staring at her.

“Hi,” she said.

Conri ran his fingers over the skin of her leg. Kai traced her collar bone, and Alaric caressed her bare belly.

“How are you feeling?” Kai said.

“Pretty good right now.”

“How’s your energy?” Alaric said.

“Good, I think.”

“Are you up for a date today?” Conri said.

“A date?”

“We’ve never taken you out properly. If you’re feeling up to it, we’d like to,” Alaric said.

“Where are you taking me?”

“We did some planning yesterday,” Conri said.

“We got permission from our dad and Delta team to take you for an overnight in Seattle. We can do some sightseeing, check into one of our hotels downtown, go to a nice restaurant, then go to the symphony, stay the night, and come back Sunday.”

“Wow,” Thea said. “That sounds amazing. I don’t think I have anything to wear to the symphony.”

“Doris is on it,” Kai said. He kissed his mark.

Thea smiled. “When do we leave?”

“Whenever you’re ready. We packed bags yesterday. Delta team is prepped and ready,” :

Alaric said.

“Let’s go!” Thea said.

The triplets got up and helped her out of bed. They showered quickly and got dressed. Thea grabbed her makeup bag, curling iron, other things the triplets may not have packed.

“I need to bring these too. Did anyone pack condoms?” Thea said.

“Yes,” Conri said.

Liam drove the SUV while the four sat in the back, making out. The rest of Delta team drove several other SUVs ahead and behind their vehicle.

They hit the main sights in Seattle, then checked into one of the luxury hotels the Valko’s owned. They took the top floor of suites to accommodate the entire Delta team. After Delta made the sweeps, Thea and the triplets got ready for dinner.

Thea put on makeup, curled her hair then tucked the curls into a chignon. She had a lot of long hair, so the chignon was full and luxurious.
