Chapter Eight of Fifteen


Ava's father left for home within the week. Grateful he had come out to see her, he made her feel better as well as her boys. The weekend came and Ava made her boys come back to her dorm. Getting back to her own form of normal helped get her mind back on track. She felt different now but in a good way. Her mind not at all what is was within the last week. The loneliness had left her soul and replaced with her dad and her hounds.

Sunday morning Ava woke up to Jayden making breakfast and Kayden sleeping beside her in her bed. Like normal. Her normal.

"Kayden."

She sang in his ear as her hand ran over his shoulder.

"Your brother is cooking."

"So I have at least ten more minutes."

He rumbled. Ava laid on his chest and kissed his chin.

"I want your attention for those ten minutes boy."

His eyes opened and he moved to look at her.

"Of course Alpha."

She smiled and toyed with his bottom lip.

"You listen so well...sometimes."

"I will always be the rebel."

He said with a sly smile.

"Jayden likes his gold stars from you."

"Ass."

Ava growled glaring at him playfully. He chuckled and rested his hand in her lower back. She felt hazy as he danced his fingers across her skin. Giving him a lazy smile she asked.

"What did you want to do today?"

"Anything with you."

His answer was quick. Ava laughed and kissed his cheek.

"I loved having my dad here but it seriously cut into my twin time."

"Missed us?"

"More than I thought I did."

Ava admitted with a nod.

"We've been away from each other before. For a long time sometimes. Months. Obviously I missed you but now...now it's like..."

"An ache."

Kayden whispered. His eyes locked onto hers, he spoke surely.

"An ache that nothing cures, nothing helps, and nothing makes it go fully away. Me and Jay went out last night and I had fun but, even then in the back of my mind was you."

"You're right. An ache."

Ava nodded and pushed herself up off his body.

"Like I've lost something or when you like bump your elbow and every time you move it hurts."

Kayden chuckled gazing at her.

"Exactly."

Jayden poked his head in and smiled at them.

"Food is about ready Alpha."

"Thank you so much boy."

Ava said sweetly to him.

"You are too kind."

He looked down then said.

"Only for you Alpha."

"I know. I'll be there in a moment boy. I am enjoying cuddly Kay."

Jayden nodded and left with a smile. Kayden let out a soft growl and said.

"You are the only person I want to cuddle. Even the females I used to fuck around with I never cared for them like I do you."

"I am afraid to see how you two would court a girl."

Ava said smiling at him.

"I feel like you two would kill her."

"That's happened once or twice but not in a long time."

Kayden's growl turned fierce then he said.

"I don't like anything near my ass and I will go to any length to stop it."

Ava burst out laughing and shoved his shoulder.

"You are funny. Noted though, won't ever do anything like that with you. Promise. I prefer my neck to be marked not torn out."

Kayden's smile turned sinful as he said.

"Fuck I love you Alpha. You are just as wild as we are."

"I just hide it better."

Ava replied with a wink.

><

After breakfast the twins showered then Ava lead them out into the common room. Jobs were posted that day and she needed ammo. As soon as they got out of her area she could literally feel them tense up. Their eyes harsh and faces angry, they looked like they were already prepared to kill someone. Ava went to the vending machine first gazing at the screen.

The twins always stood behind her, Kayden on her left and Jayden on her right. Sometimes they switched but it was rare. When they first started walking with each other Ava thought she would trip or bump into them all the time but somehow they managed to stay out of her way and still close to her. Like they could tell where she was going to step before she moved. Thought it odd at first she had grown to like them behind her. She always lead them everywhere anyways. This just made it easier.

Purchasing some ammo she heard Jayden's soft warning growl. Turning away from the machine she saw Thomas coming towards them. A smile on his face.

"Afternoon Fox."

"Hello Thomas. How's Ricky? Heard he was sick?"

"Alright. I just came from his dorm, he's got a cold but you know how that old dog is."

Thomas answered coming up to her. She felt Kayden tense up behind her and she turned to look at him.

"Relax hound. It's fine."

His growl quieted as Ava turned back to Thomas.

"He's a baby when he gets a fever. Taking a job today?"

"Yes, finally got my rifle back. Cracked the frame good."

He replied with a smile.

"What about you?"

"Yes, a week of rest is enough for us. I'm antsy, they're growly. Gotta get out."

Ava studied Thomas. He seemed to have no fear of her boys but didn't look nor speak with them. Wondering if he really knew what they were capable of.

"I hear that. I'm afraid I'm going to forget how to shoot if I don't get out soon."

Thomas said. He put his hands in his pockets and smiled at her.

"Maybe before we leave we can go out for a real dinner and not bar food?"

"We'll see."

Ava answered with a shrug. Thomas nodded, he seemed to understand.

"Alright, I'm off to get ready for my job. Hope to see you around."

Ava nodded and watched him walk off. Turning to her boys who met her eyes, she sighed softly then said.

"That's Thomas. The guy who if he hurts me you two will eat."

Kayden let out a low growl.

"Yes we will."

"But not before."

Ava warned.

"Never Alpha. We are loyal to you."

Jayden replied, his eyes moving back towards the hallway Thomas went down. Ava collected her ammo into her backpack then handed it to Jayden.

"Let's go find us a job boys."

"Yes Alpha."

They replied together. Ava sighed and gazed up at them both.

"I know you two are in tough, macho mode but I love you."

She watched them struggle not to smile as they looked away from her. Smiling she turned and lead them towards the Hub.

><

Ava picked out another assassination job for them, one she knew the twins would enjoy doing then returned to her dorm to go over the info. As soon as she got the twins inside Kayden said.

"I know what I want to do today."

Ava set her bag down on the kitchen table and turned to him.

"Oh?"

He nodded and looked to his twin who smiled. Ava sat on the table and crossed her arms.

"What is that?"

"We want our second date."

Jayden growled. Ava smiled over at them and gave a small laugh.

"Really?"

"Yes, and you said if we take you somewhere fancy you would wear that blue dress for us."

Kayden growled out his words. Ava nodded gazing at them.

"I did. Are you two taking me somewhere fancy?"

"Is that a yes?"

Kayden asked. Ava nodded smiling over at them.

"Course, not many earn a second date with me."

Jayden spoke to his twin in their language catching his attention. Ava watched Kayden agree with whatever Jay said then turn to her.

"Can we ask you something Alpha?"

Ava stood and came over to stand before them.

"Anything boys."

Jayden looked nervous as he glanced at his twin. Kayden mulled something over for a few seconds then met her eyes.

"If you were to start dating Thomas...we would have to..."

He looked over at Jayden who didn't meet his eyes.

"Step back from you...right?"

"Step back?"

Ava was confused. Jayden whimpered and looked to his twin for help. Kayden sighed heavily.

"Give you some space."

"Guys I don't even know if I want to date him yet."

Ava replied with a smile.

"And if I ever did, like I said before, he would have to understand that my boys come first. Always. You two aren't jealous of him are you?"

"No Alpha."

Kayden answered surely shaking his head.

"We know we have your twisted form of love and a...strange...relationship that has and will stand the test of time."

"Good, I don't stand for jealously. Makes Lycans weak. What did you mean by step back?"

"Not staying in your room nightly. Not hanging out in your living room all day."

Kayden answered. Ava confidently shook her head no and smiled.

"Don't be scared boys. Just because I like someone doesn't mean they will replace you or make me push you away. You're my boys."

Jayden finally met her eyes and said.

"We like being your boys..."

"Trust me, I like it too. But anyways, you said you wanted your second date?"

Ava smiled at them.

"Where are we going?"

"It's a surprise."

Kayden said with a smile. Jayden nodded and smiled as well.

"Just wear that dress and we will take care of everything else."

Ava studied them with a smile on her face, she was excited now.

"Alright boys, it's a date. Dinner right?"

They nodded together. They looked happier now, more relaxed.

"Yes Alpha."

"So afterwards we can come back and, if you are willing, make you cry out our names."

Kayden growled giving her a wicked smile. Ava felt her cheeks burn red as she gazed at them.

"That does sound fun. Depends on how the date goes though. Can't just go around sleeping with anyone when they buy me food."

They both let out deep growls staring at her, even Jayden looked wicked.

"Of course Alpha. We understand how hard of a catch you are."

"Good thing you two run fast. Always seem to catch me."

"We would chase you to the ends of the Earth and beyond."

Kayden promised gazing at her.

"Then let you go just to chase you once again."

"Forever."

Jayden added in a growl. Ava smiled and hugged into Jayden's body.

"Forever."

><

Ava spent a few hours with her hounds going over files and intel for their newest job. An easier one. Some doctor who was doing illegal experiments on people in Asia. Dr. Kim and two of his assistants were the targets. They settled at the kitchen table to read over the info.

Ava tried to focus on building a plan in her head but it was clouded by her date with the twins that night. Date. She thought it funny how they had been out to eat and drink together many-many times but never had they or she called them dates. It was only after they had started talking about sleeping together did they use that word. She liked it though but had some questions she was nervous to ever ask. Unsure if she really wanted to know about their personal lives outside of their relationship. Trusting them Ava lifted her eyes and asked.

"Boys?"

They looked up from their files and smiled at her.

"Yes Alpha?"

"I want to ask you something but...I'm sure it's personal."

Jayden shifted in his seat and looked at his twin. Kayden didn't seem bothered at all he just smiled at her.

"You have already seen us naked Alpha. You know our sizes down there."

Ava laughed and shook her head.

"It's not that. More along the lines of how you two actually go on dates. Like with other girls. You don't speak to anyone, how do you two date?"

"We don't really."

Kayden answered with a shrug.

"One night stands and the occasional morning after is usually how we "date" I guess."

"But I don't understand how you two find a girl to sleep with."

"You want to know our process?"

Kayden teased smiling at her. Ava laughed again but nodded.

"Yes. I am morbidly curious."

Kayden looked to Jayden who nodded and let out a soft grunt. Kayden turned back to Ava and growled.

"Human girls are easy to get. One look at either of us and they are already a puddle of mess. Doesn't take much to realize we are Lycans. Give them a few deep growls and they are ready and willing to get on their knees for us. As far as the talking goes I am the one who speaks when we decide to find a girl together."

"He has a much more harsh tone than I do."

Jayden added catching her attention.

"Lycan females are harder to get into bed. They know who we are and what we have done."

"Although there are some twisted females."

Kayden paused to smile at her.

"Like you, who find us interesting."

"They always think they can change us though."

Jayden growled out his words then changed his tone to mock some girl.

"If you date me I can turn you into the perfect male."

"Like we already aren't."

Kayden growled. Ava just laughed sitting back in her chair.

"So do you two do anything apart?"

"Bathroom time."

Jayden said in a laugh.

"He stinks and I get pee shy."

Ava laughed harder shaking her head.

"I didn't mean that."

"We sometimes go off and find our own girl to fuck around with."

Kayden chucked.

"Everything else though we do together. Eat, sleep, work, live. You've seen our bed."

"I wouldn't call it a bed. More of a nest. It's huge and so comfortable. I didn't think I'd like it but it was nice."

Ava remarked. Kayden looked to his twin who smiled.

"I made it actually. Mom always said I was a better bed maker. Is there anything you want to know about us? I'm sure there isn't much you don't know."

"I don't have any idea about you two before we met."

She met Kayden's eyes then said.

"Also I don't know anything about your father."

Jayden's eyes suddenly dropped down to the table as Kayden let out a growl.

"We don't speak of him by choice. If we were to ever see him we would eat him."

Ava was surprised. They held their mother so highly to hear them speak about their father like this was shocking. Apollo never mentioned anything about their dad when they stayed together in the wilds and Ava knew better than to just up and start asking questions. It was rude.

"Alright, I'll ask about your past. What were you doing before you hit that store and we started?"

Kayden looked to Jayden speaking in their language. Jayden answered back and Ava noticed his voice sounded harsher. Kayden growled at him then turned back to Ava.

"It's not happy nor good."

"Boys."

She gave them a look and smiled.

"You know I don't care if you two are "good" or "evil" world isn't black and white like that. Tell me."

Jayden sighed but Kayden spoke.

"We were hitmen then. Worked off the dark net and picked up jobs from people who would pay or preform other services we needed. ID forging things of that nature."

"What about before then?"

"We just lived in the wilds. Stayed with our mother training with her or helping her preform jobs."

"Jayden."

Ava called his name and watched his eyes drag up to hers.

"Why are you upset?"

"I don't like talking about our past."

He answered with a shrug.

"We weren't happy, cops always breathing down our necks, it was hard. Physically and emotionally. Besides, I like living in the present...with you."

She smiled and reached out to touch his hand.

"You know I won't judge you."

"I know. It just feels like a different life now. I hadn't realized how...untamed we had become. You've put us in line and curbed some of our wildness. We don't randomly attack people anymore."

"You also have showed us ways to use our skills to our advantage."

Kayden said smiling at her.

"I used to be so sore after a hit. You've taught me to think smarter about my attacks. I was good before, I am a perfect killing machine now."

"Damn right you are. And you."

She made Jayden look at her by squeezing his hand.

"You haven't had anyone out run you or your range since we started. I am very proud."

He smiled as he nodded.

"I have gotten a lot better. Watching you helps. You are a damn good shot Alpha."

"Thank you boy. Well it sounds like you had a rough life but it's getting better right?"

Ava asked standing up from the table. They both smiled and looked up at her.

"With you our lives are a million times better."

"Good, glad I can help. It's almost 4 now boys. I'm going to shower and get ready for my date."

Kayden came over to her side and kissed her suddenly. She accepted his kiss and wrapped her arms around his waist pulling him close. He kissed her for a solid minute then slowly pulled away growling. Ava smiled at him and squeezed her arms tight around him.

"What was that for?"

"Because he likes it when you call our outing a date."

Jayden teased with a smile. Kayden threw him a look then growled deeply. Ava snatched his face back to her making his growl instantly stop. He look confused down at her. She growled back at him then said.

"Don't glare at him for telling the truth to his Alpha."

Ava watched a sinful smile spread across his handsome face. It made her insides squirm and twist.

"Apologies Alpha."

"Good boy. Now you two go on back to your dorm to shower and do whatever it is you are going to do. I'll meet you by your truck in like an hour?"

"That's fine."

Jayden said nodding. Kayden moved away from her then said.

"Wear flat shoes."

Ava laughed patting his arm as he left her side.

"Alright. Go on now boys. I love you two."

They both just smiled at her, they looked so happy.

><

Ava showered then headed into her room to get dressed. She gathered her dress from her closet then her clutch and flat blue shoes. Surprised that her hands seemed to shake a bit. She was nervous. Shaking her head she tried to clear it. They had been out so many times; why this time were her nerves attacking her. Plus they were her boys, nothing they ever did made her nervous.

Shaking out her arms she let out a loud whoosh of air gazing over at the dress.

"It's just the twins. Calm down dammit."

She slipped her dress over her head then turned to mirror to fix it around her hips. The slit came up just about mid-thigh showing off her strong leg. Thinking twice about putting underwear on she heard someone knock at her door. Tossing her robe on the hurried to get it.

"Ricky? Aren't you sick?"

He smiled standing in her doorway.

"Yes, meds just kicked in but I wanted to make sure you were alright."

Ava studied him, confused.

"Why wouldn't I be?"

"Well, with your dad here and everything I figured something had you upset."

He replied with a shrug. Ava sighed shaking her head.

"I'm fine Ricky. Promise. We talked everything out."

He met her eye then asked.

"Something happen with the twins?"

"You always go right for them don't you?"

Ava growled at him.

"Can't be anything else, must be the twins. I'm tired of it Ricky. They mean a lot to me and I would appreciate you either understanding that or fuck off with your snide ass comments."

"What about Thomas? He likes you. Maybe you could-"

"Ricky..."

Ava hissed grinding her teeth together cutting him off.

"Now is not the time for this. I'm about to head out, I'm trying to get dressed."

"Forcing the wolves in public again? How does dinner even work for you three? They don't talk."

"I talk and honestly its none of your business what we do. They are my friends not yours."

"That's for damn sure."

Ava growled again and stepped towards him, making him step back.

"Ricky you are walking a thin line with me. You think my hounds are violent...keep this shit up and I will show you violent."

"I'm just trying to protect you."

"We've been friends for sixty years."

Ava snarled, she felt so angry with him this time. Almost scared her.

"If they wanted to hurt me why wait this long? Why put their lives in danger to work with me? Why work with me?!"

"They are smart. If you just disappeared who do you think everyone would look at first? The twins. Now if one mission you don't make it back..."

"It would be because I failed and I don't fail."

Ava hissed. Ricky crossed his arms glaring at her.

"You'll do something one day that doesn't sit right with them. And those "hounds" you keep so close will rip you apart and probably eat you for some twisted reason that is shameful."

"How about I make them eat you?"

Ava snarled pushing him away from her door. She had lost it and was furious.

"I could do that. It would only take one of them but I would send both. Do you forget who I control Richard? The twins you are so fucking scared of. We've been friends for a long-long time and you know my father that's the only reason I have put up with your crap for this long. I swear under the moon, if one more comment comes out of your god damn mouth about my wolves I will sick them on you."

Ricky just growled and turned away going down the hall. Ava slammed her door closed behind her and stormed back into her bedroom. She fuming. Deciding not to wear underwear she swore to herself that she would prove Ricky wrong. The twins would never hurt her in any real way, in fact they knew how to care for her unlike anyone else who had ever tried. They were herboys.

><

*Twins POV

"I don't like suits."

Jayden whimpered for the sixth time. Kayden growled over at him and snapped.

"I know but it's not for you or me. It's for Alpha. You want to lay with her tonight, right?"

Jayden sighed from across the room and turned to look down at the 3-piece dark navy suit laying out on the bed.

"Yes."

"Then put it on so we can get to the truck and wait for her."

"It's that dress..."

Jayden growled staring down.

"It puts thoughts in my head...especially now that we have had her. She's so sexy..."

"I agree. I always wondered what she kept hidden from us for so long."

Kayden slid his belt though his pants turning to look at his twin. Jayden picked up his pants and sighed.

"I don't think I'll ever look at another female the same again. And Jesus the sounds she makes when we have sex. I never heard such amazing sounds of passion."

"I like that she bites back."

Kayden growled tucking his white shirt into his pants.

"Proves she's just as crazy as us. More wild than I think even she realizes."

"Is this what it's like?"

Jayden turned to him tucking his shirt in too. Kayden gave him a confused look and grunted.

"What is what like?"

"We talk about her all the time now."

Jayden lifted his collar up for his tie gazing across the room.

"Even when we are on our own. We usually talk about what kind of trouble we can get into next or what job has to be done."

"I agree."

"We spend pretty much 100% of our time with her. Either relaxing, working, or sleeping. She calls our outing dates now."

"I think she says it jokingly by the way."

Kayden said waving over at him. He turned to the mirror and started to tie his tie. Jayden let out a sigh then asked.

"Is this what it's like?"

Kayden growled and glared at him through the mirror.

"What are you talking about?"

Jayden's eyes met his through the mirror. He looked a bit sad as he whispered out his words.

"Is this what it's like being in love with someone...?"

Kayden growled shaking his head, turning away from his brother's piercing gaze.

"I don't think-"

"Don't think what?"

Jayden growled and came over to his side. Kayden growled back and turned away from him.

"You think she wouldn't at least give us a shot?"

"It's not normal to have two mates and I don't want a mate. We wouldn't do good as family men. We are too wild, too aggressive, too crazy."

"She doesn't like normal."

"She says that but we know damn well we have heard that before."

Kayden snarled turning back to him.

"We won't be the reason she is treated differently."

"Kay, she is happy with us."

Jayden growled back.

"And she doesn't want the whole family life like us."

"I don't want a mate, and how would she explain us to her father?"

Kayden turned away from him to finish his tie.

"Put thoughts like that out of your head Jay. It'll only hurt when they are smashed."

"She won't smash them. She loves us."

"Not in the way you are talking about. Besides there are two of us. Think of the looks she'll get from everyone. And she could never show us off to anyone or take us to "stay with the in-laws" or even really have a mating ceremony. Us at a party? Ha! Everyone asking why there are two males with one female. I won't have that kind of talk about our Alpha."

"She doesn't care...she loves us both."

"Jayden."

Kayden growled deeply and looked at him.

"Enough."

Jayden gave a heavy defeated sigh and threw his hands up.

"You're ridiculous."

"Just get ready."

"Fine."

><

*Ava's POV

Ava hurried to the twins truck after she locked up her dorm. Her argument with Ricky had made her run a bit late. Coming to their parking garage she entered the code and went through the door.

As she rounded the corner to the truck she stopped dead. They both wore dark navy 3-piece suits. Kayden had a blue tie and Jayden a red one. Their hair even freshly cut. Never long their usual buzz cut made them look sharp. She stared at them until they realized that she had arrived. They both smiled which just made her brain instantly turn to mush.

"Wow..."

They looked magnificent but all she could say further was.

"Damn..."

They both laughed and came over to her.

"Hello Alpha. Do you like it?"

She nodded gazing back and forth between them.

"Wow."

"Third time's the charm."

Jayden joked with a smile. She blushed and smacked his arm with her clutch.

"Shut up boy. You two look great. I didn't think you could clean up so nice."

"You are used to work and sleeping clothes Alpha."

Kayden growled leaning down to kiss her bare shoulder. She touched his side and gazed up at him.

"What are these?"

"Our date clothes."

Jayden answered taking her hand in his. Ava laughed and turned to look up at him.

"I can see why you two have no issue finding girls. Such a charmer. Ready to go?"

"Yes but could you do a twirl for us?"

Jayden asked shyly. She took his hand and made him help her do a spin. Kayden chuckled and said.

"You are beautiful Alpha."

Her cheeks couldn't have been more red as she stepped away from Jayden. She felt amazing. Almost instantly forgetting about her fight earlier. They would never do her any harm.

"Thank you boys."

Jayden opened her door and Kayden held out his hand.

"Your chariot awaits Alpha."

"Best chariot ever!"

She laughed climbing up into the big truck. Kayden chuckled and shut her door. She moved to the middle seat in the back and nudged Jayden's shoulder.

"You excited boy?"

"Yes, I've only been to this place twice before. You'll love it."

He turned back towards her as Kayden climbed into the driver's seat.

"You two are paying right? Any place that calls for clothes like this..."

"I told you."

Kayden turned and smiled at her.

"We make enough money now to support your expensive tastes."

Ava laughed and sat back in her seat.

"Sly boys you. Using me to get more money."

"Doesn't it count that it goes back towards you?"

Jayden asked in a laugh. Ava smiled and looked over at him.

"I guess that's a fair point. How about; don't sass your Alpha?"

"Yes Alpha."

They said together.

><

They drove for about 40 minutes to a beautiful place called Taverna Cestia Roma. Ava had only heard of this place. She lived in Rome her whole life and never had she been taken here before. Already they were proving worthy of a second date. She paused then. Stopping her thoughts. Taking this joke way to far she heard Jayden call out to her.

"Ready?"

"Yes boy."

They walked inside together and Ava could already feel the eyes of many on her. Usually making her wary and nervous she felt pride now and confidence. She knew why people were staring and it wasn't because of the two large Lycans stalking behind her. Going up to the host she smiled and said.

"Three for Deacon."

She swore she heard her boys make some sort of sound but it was quickly drown out by the host speaking.

"Ah yes. Follow me please."

Ava glanced back at her hounds then followed the host. They were seated at a beautiful table right beside a window overlooking some river Ava didn't know the name of. The white table cloth and beautiful dishes made her smile. This was an amazing place. She settled facing the window and her boys adjacent from her. They only looked around for a few seconds this time. Ava noticed they struggled not to eye up everyone in the room. For her.

"This is a beautiful place boys."

She said trying to help them stay focused. She knew they hated being around people so this must have been a living hell for them.

"I didn't think I rated so highly."

"Not often you are mistaken Alpha."

Kayden said slyly. She smiled at him then said.

"You two are already blowing away all my other second dates. All...what...five of them."

They laughed and Ava just felt perfect. Already she was having fun with them. Forgetting about her life at Sanctuary and just having them was nice.

"Thank you Alpha."

"We aim to please."

They talked and laughed all through their dinner. Ava had not had such good food in a long time, everything was perfect. The music, the food, the company, everything. She was over the moon happy.

Skipping desert the boys saying they had something else planned for her. Joking with them to save it until the third date, they just smiled. Ava rode in their truck to some park closer to home. They pulled into an empty parking lot lit by a few street lamps.

"Is this where you kill me?"

Ava asked. They both laughed and turned back to her in their seats.

"No Alpha. We would ask permission first."

Jayden joked. She smiled and crossed her arms.

"So why are we here then? Back seat blow jobs?"

"No, Alpha come on."

Jayden shook his head laughing.

"We wanted to dance with you."

Kayden turned on some kind of soft classical music from the radio and then hopped out of the truck. Ava looked at Jayden confused but he just smiled back at her. Kayden opened her door and looked in at her.

"You wore this for us. How could we not dance with you?"

Ava was stunned as he reached his hand out to her. This wasn't even in the same galaxy of what she thought they would ever do together. Her twins? Dancing? Never.

"Come Alpha. I am oldest so I get to go first."

Kayden growled. She smiled and took his hand.

"Not fair but okay."

Ava pressed against Kayden's big body holding him close. The danced together in silence. Letting the soft beautiful music flow through their very souls. Ava felt like she was in a dream. That she could wake up at any time and all this would just melt away. However, every time she opened her eyes it took her breath away that is was real. Kayden held her perfectly against his body, virtually like she was curved to fit him. His scent entranced her and tickled a special place in her mind. They danced under the street lights together in the cool night air. Before she knew it three different songs had gone by. Sadly Kayden pulled away and gazed down at her. She smiled and patted his chest.

"My-my boy. I had no idea."

"There are a few things I keep to myself."

He teased with a smile.

"Have to keep you entertained somehow."

Ava laughed and nudged him away.

"Off with you boy, its Jay's turn."

He chuckled and went back to the truck. Jayden jumped out the backseat and came to her. She pulled him close and kissed his chest.

"Save the best for last."

He looked just so happy it made her heart thud so loud.

"So it seems."

Jayden brought her into his body leaning down to kiss her shoulder and neck. Ava smiled beneath him pulling his arms tighter around her. She knew the small differences between them so well now. Two totally different personalities, really the only relation the had were there looks. Even Jayden's scent was strikingly different.

They moved together in the slow beat of the music. This night would erase some of her old painful memories. This night would stay with her forever.
