I grinned at him catching sight of his twin jogging up the steps to join us. “I doubt you and your brother will have any trouble pleasing her. There are many moves non-enhanced penises can do that others cannot. You’ll just have to think outside the box.”

“Whoa, what did I walk into?” Noah asked, brows raised.

Mason just laughed and shook his head. “Man, it’s gonna take some getting used to how proper you talk. Who even calls it a penis anymore?” He slapped me on the back and started up to the third floor. “I’m gonna take this up for her before it gets cold. You coming, twin, or staying for the tips-from-an-elf talk?”

Noah looked between me and his brother like it was actually a hard choice.

“Go, she’s far more interesting than anything I have to share,” I teased, heading down the hall to my new room.

After the past few days and staying awake last night to watch over Finley, I could use a nap before we got back into the issues at hand.

We hadn’t even touched on the fact she healed a vampire.

It was going to be interesting to see their take on that information.

“Snuggles, you need to wake up so you can eat,” Mason whispered in my ear as he swirled delicious-smelling food under my nose.

Cracking open an eye, I looked at him and then the steaming bowl of some type of creamy chicken and rice meal. When I shifted, I felt that I was still attached to Zander, but for some reason, it wasn’t awkward to have Mason and Noah hanging out in the bed with us. Zander grabbed a pillow for me to put under my chest so I could sit up higher and eat easier. The food was amazing and tasted just as good as it smelled, making me hum and curl my toes. After a week of being spoiled by them, to go without their cooking for two days was not something I wanted to make a habit of.

“This is wonderful, thank you, Mason,” I praised as I pushed forward, pressing a kiss to his lips. “Who knew you were such a good cook.”

Mason beamed at me. “To be fair, most of us are pretty good at making food since we all like to eat. Colt’s the only one you have to watch out for. He’s only good at making breakfast foods. Anything other than this is dangerous.”

“Good to know.” I giggled, then froze, looking back up at Mason.

His eyes glowed with happiness, letting me know he didn’t miss it. “Now, snuggles, I didn’t think you made noises like that? Didn’t she say she never giggles, twin?” he asked Noah, who was lounging beside him.

“Once I could see as a mistake, but twice… now that’s becoming a pattern,” Noah agreed. “Guess we will just have to keep our ears peeled to see if it happens a third time, then there’s no way she can say giggles don’t come out of her mouth.”

“What are you two on about?” Zander asked, his voice muffled since his face was pressed to my shoulder.

“Answer this question first, was that a giggle or a laugh?” Mason inquired, resting his chin on his hands like an excited child.

For as large of a person as he was, beating all the others besides his twin with bulk, he acted completely different than his appearance. No one would guess behind the brawn was a child-like heart and teasing attitude.

“Seriously?” Zander demanded, lifting his head to look at the beta. “I don’t even know what the difference between those is. A laugh is a laugh. Why the fuck do you need to put a label on it?”

“Dude, that made you sound so old,” Mason teased, rolling his eyes. “Did you need me to grab your cane for you when you get out of bed to make it back downstairs?”

Zander started to growl and raise up on his arms. “You are one lucky son of a bitch that I can’t go anywhere right now, but don’t think that will save you from me dealing with this later.”

As if the other two alphas knew the twins were causing trouble, they entered the room with Elias right behind them. Lane paused and took in the scene before him, brows raised. “Ah, everything good here?”

“Just having a bonding moment, right Zan?” Mason shared, grinning at the trapped alpha.

Clearing my throat, I smoothed a hand over Zander’s leg, trying to calm him down as he tried to get up to go after Mason. Thankfully his body realized that he needed not to be stuck in me anymore, and his knot eased enough for him to slip out of me.

“You better run, beta, or I’ll show you a whole other bonding moment we can have that I’ll enjoy more than you will,” Zander warned now on all fours, ready to leap over me.

A shrill whistle pierced through the air, making us all freeze and turn to Elias. “Everyone off the fucking bed if you’re going to act like assholes. Finley is in the middle of it trying to eat and you felt like now was the time to piss off an alpha?” he demanded of Mason. “Don’t think your off the hook either, Zander. You know he likes to get under your skin, but how could you let that cloud your judgment? If the two of you really started to fight, Finley would be the one to get hurt. You were still fucking knotted in her, for fuck’s sake.”

The room fell silent as we watched the moody beta, who, from what I’ve seen, hardly spoke unless he had to. I don’t know if he felt this was necessary or if he was becoming even more protective of me now that I’d marked him.

He stood there like my dark protector as he made sure everyone got off the bed, leaving me in peace to finish my meal now that I could sit up. My nose wrinkled at the feeling of sitting in cum, so I moved to another part of the bed. Taking a real shower was going to be needed, but it could wait while the food was still hot.

“Dude, are you sure you’re not some undercover alpha?” Mason asked Elias.
