Anastasia looked up at Samsul and smiled, "We'll have to bundle them up nice and tight," She looked at Marcus again and pressed his little hand to his chest, "Nice and tight."

Marcus smiled at her before yawning. Anastasia started to rock him back and forth in her arms, putting him to sleep. She stood and placed him back in his crib. She smiled at Samsul, "I'm going to get dressed before I wrap these to up and come help with some of the work in the office," She leaned over and kissed him, "About time I started doing some work again."

"I'm happy to have you back in the office. Having Elana around it nice, but she needs to enjoy her retirement, even if she can't go out of the castle because of of the circumstances." Samsul said with a smile as he began to rock Alexandra back and fourth in his arms, trying to get her to sleep. Once she had fallen asleep, he put her next to her brother in the crib and went into the closet to get changed.

After changing into his regular attire, Samsul walked over to the door and smiled at Anastasia "We can just ask Millie and Arabella to watch over the children while we work, and if you aren't comfortable with that, then we can see if your mother would like to watch over them.."

Anastasia changed into her simplest dress, she didn't need to impress anyone today and she didn't care to. She was walking back over to the children when Samsul asked if Millie and Arabella or Elana could watch them for her. She stopped and looked down at the kids, she hadn't been away from them since they had had them. They slept in their room and if she was out of the room, she had them wrapped to up against her body. She didn't know if she wanted time away from them. However, maybe it was for the best. She reached down and ran her hand along Alexandra's head before nodding, "Fine. Grab Millie and Arabella."

Within moments of her saying their names the two girls were in the room, grinning. Anastasia laughed a little, since she was always with them, the two girls hadn't had the chance yet to watch them for her. She walked over to them, "They're asleep right now. If they get hungry, come and grab me, Samsul and I will be in the office."

She then looked to Samsul. She took his hand in her's, "Come, let's go work."

Both Millie and Arabella nodded at Anastasia and looked over at the children. It wasn't the first time that they had seen the little ones, but it was the first time that they were being trusted to watch over them.

Samsul smilsed at Anastasia and kissed her lightly and opened the door, leading both of them out and into the hallway. He was a little anxious to leave the children alone without either himself or Anastasia staying with them, but he would need to get used to it, as in no time at all they would be running down the halls by themselves and having nobody to look after them constantly.

Arabella walked over to the two sleeping babies and smiled as she looked down at them, "Oh... They are absolute angels," She whispered to Millie. She hadn't the chance to hold either of them yet but with them so sound asleep, she feared she might wake them. She looked down at them and grinned, "So sweet..."

Anastasia walked away with her husband and felt her anxiety levels raise. She hadn't been away from Marcus and Arabella since they were born, at least while she was away. She knew that one day she would have to let them run around the castle on their own but she didn't like the thought of leaving them now. She wanted to know when they were crying or sleeping. Which others watching them, she wouldn't know. She took and deep breath and looked at Samsul, "It feels weird being away from them..."

Arabella walked over to the two sleeping babies and smiled as she looked down at them, "Oh... They are absolute angels," She whispered to Millie. She hadn't the chance to hold either of them yet but with them so sound asleep, she feared she might wake them. She looked down at them and grinned, "So sweet..."

Anastasia walked away with her husband and felt her anxiety levels raise. She hadn't been away from Marcus and Arabella since they were born, at least while she was away. She knew that one day she would have to let them run around the castle on their own but she didn't like the thought of leaving them now. She wanted to know when they were crying or sleeping. Which others watching them, she wouldn't know. She took and deep breath and looked at Samsul, "It feels weird being away from them..."

Millie had only held each of the children once before, so being this close to them and being able to hold them if she wanted to made her squeal inside. She absolutely adored children, and although she couldn't have any of her own, she felt just as happy looking after others. "I'm so happy for Anastasia and Samsul." She whispered back to Arabella with a hint of excitement in her voice.

Samsul nodded in agreement with his wife. Although he was away from the children much more than Anastasia was, he still felt weird allowing people other than himself and his wife to look after the children. They were far to young to be trusted to someone outside of the family, but Millie and Arabella were close to them, so he trusted them a bit more than others. "I feel odd as well. I trust Millie and Arabella to the fullest, but without you or me being there with them feels odd."

Arabella reached down slowly and took the sleeping Marcus into her arms. She smiled broadly, "They make beautiful babies..." She rocked him and giggled a little, "I can tell that this sweet heart is indeed a prince. There is no denying it."

Anastasia laughed, "We are quite up tight it seems," She rested her head against Samsul shoulder, "I think we need to relax a little. Millie and Arabella would run straight to us if anything were to go wrong. And I'm almost positive that nothing will go wrong," She smiled, "Besides, they'll be with us in a few hours to get fed anyways."

She looked up at Samsul and kissed him, "Imagining how we are going to be when they are running all over the palace."

Slowly and carefully, Millie picked up Alexandra and held her up close to her body. from what she had seen with Anastasia and Samsul handling her, the young princess was easier to wake then her brother, but only by a tiny bit. She wasn't sure if she would become an even lighter sleeper in the future or not, but didn't want to worry about the future until it happened. "They truly are precious little children..." Millie said wistfully, wondering what it would be like if she could have her own children to hold in her arms and look after.

Samsul laughed lightly as he thought about his children in the future running around and causing havoc for the staff in the castle. He thought it would be funny to see something like that happen. "I would support whatever they would want to do, just as long as it doesn't cause us and the others too much stress."

Arabella walked around the room slowly with little Marcus as he turned into her, seemingly happy to lie in arms over a crib. He was quiet as he slept, moving only from time to time in her arms. Arabella looked at Millie, "If they are this calm all the time. We are hardly going to have to do anything at all... I was wondering how Anastasia was keeping so calm while caring for the two of them most of the day alone."

Anastasia walked into the office with her husband and closed the door behind them. She pulled him into a deep kiss. Between the kids and everything else, the two of them rarely got time to their selves anymore. She broke it after a moment and smiled at him. She walked over to her desk as though nothing had happened and for the first time in months picked up her pen to work. She smiled, "As long as they don't become too spoiled, I'll be okay."

Millie nodded at Arabella and looked down at Alexandra, rocking her back and fourth gently as she stood there. "Yes, but thay will eventually wake up and need to eat, so we will be doing something at one point today."

Samsuls eyes widened only slightly at the deep kiss, but enjoyed it while it lasted before he saw Anastasia breaking the kiss and smiling at him. The way she walked was like nothing at all had just happened, and he smiled at that. Walking to his own desk, Samsul began to read over some documents on his desk. "I want them to know that just because they're royalty doesn't mean that they can treat others lower than themselves. great rules put themselves as equals with their people."

Anastasia sat with her eyes closed and allowed the sun to beat down on her face. In her arms she held her baby, who started to squirm a little. She opened her eyes and looked down at the baby boy and laughed a little. She heard Alexandra call to her, "Mom!" She looked up to see her daughter, all grown up running to her. She laughed and fell to her knees in front of her, "Come and play with us! Dad keeps splashing us and we can't get him back."

Ana giggled and handed Theodore to Millie before standing. She wore pants, which was very uncommon for her but it made moving around so much easier and travelling or riding was far more comfortable. She stood as Alexandra ran back to the ocean. Anastasia ran behind her, she laughed and as she reached the ocean, kicked up some water at Samsul. She walked over to him and kissed him, happy to be there with him and their children. Alexandra whined slightly, "Moooom!"

Marcus, however, took the chance and splashed the both of them. Ana gasped as the cold water hit her and laughed before kissing her husband again.
