Just like I had thought, I'm definitely under dressed!
I stare around me and gulp nervously. Everyone around me is looking so sophisticated and.... wealthy. The air scents of expensive wine and has sounds of gentle chatters. I clutch onto Kai's hands tighter, then release it immediately like I've been burned."I'm sorry," I apologize. It hasn't even been a minute! And I'm already making a fool of myself.Dear lawd."It's okay, baby" He chuckles, pulling me by the waist closer to him. My heart does a freaking backflip because of the nickname.Baby....it always sounds so sensual coming out of his mouth.I'm someone's baby! Oh my lawd."Come on." He pulls me with him towards the desk, a calm look on his face. We stand in front of a red hair girl in a uniform, the tall wooden desk being the only barrier."Good evening, Sir. Good evening, ma'am. Welcome to Orion Restaurant , how can I help you?""Reservation for Mr Arnand." Is all he says. The girl nods and types something on the computer system in front of her."Oh yes! Mr Arnand and Miss Donna, follow me."****"This is so beautiful." I gush as I stare around me. The restaurant is truly beautiful. I can't help but stare at everything in amazement. I'm probably making a fool of myself now. Shit. Keep it together Didi, no one needs to know you ain't been to a five star restaurant before."It is," He answers me. I hum and turn to look back at him, noticing his eyes have been on me all this while.Was he talking about me?"And no, I don't mean the restaurant." He reads my mind and clarifies. I look down feeling my cheek burn.Gosh darn, the amount of times I've blushed today."You look so beautiful, Didi. I don't think I'm ever going to get tired of telling you that." He reaches for my hand, his thumb caressing my skin. I smile."You're also looking quite attractive." I bite my lip. His eyes flit to the action for a few seconds, his eyes turning a shade darker and an indecipherable look on his face. And then he raises his gaze and the look is gone.A waiter comes to our table. " Would you like to order, Mr and Mrs?"I giggle nervously. "Miss," I correct the man, "We- we're not married.""Oh, I'm sorry. Mr and Miss?""It's Okay. Where's-""Actually," Kai cuts me off, turning to look at the waiter. "We're not ordering anything now. I'll call you back when we need you, but bring me a red wine." He tells the man. The waiter nods and walks off, attending to the couple after us."Didi, baby," He calls softly. I hum as he continues to caress my hand. "There's someone joining us soon.""What?" I frown, " I thought- I thought it was going to be just the two of us?" My voice drops in disappointment.Was this a double date? He could've atleast let me know before hand."I know baby, but I promise you're going to like this." His lips tug up and I stare at him in confusion."Who-""Hope I'm not late?" A deeper voice says behind me. Their strong cologne hits my nose and I freeze momentarily. The person walks up to our table and stands in front of me and my eyes widen.Holy shit! There's two of him. What the actual fuck? Kaivan Arnand has a twin? It isn't written in any of them magazines that he has a twin! What freaky shit is this?I stare back and forth between the two, shocked and confused."What? There's two of you." I voice out. Kai smiles as his clone chuckles deeply."Yes, Didi. This is my twin, Kaysen." He introduces his clone."Older twin," The clone stresses out the word older as he casually sits next to me. Oh don't mind me, I'm just having a mini heart attack right now. No goddamn biggie."Don't start." Kai rolls his eyes at his clone who chuckles again. I literally just sit there and stare like a confused fool."Kace, this is Didi, beautiful Didi." His hand somehow finds it's way on my knees from beneath the table as he smiles at me. I gasp as Kai's clone grabs one of my hand and takes it in his. He caresses it but it doesn't feel as good and gentle as when Kai does it. But it does feel like my body's been lit on fire.What is happening right now?"Hello, Didi. You're even more lavishing than my brother described." He smirks at me, placing a soft kiss on my hand. I gasp again because I feel a zing when his lips touch my skin."H-h-hi," I breathe, my body rising in temperature as his ocean blue eyes stare into my soul."What's happening, Kai? Why's y-your brother here? Whom I didn't even know existed from the beginning might I add." I chuckle nervously."Don't worry yourself, love. We'll tell you everything you need to know." Kai smiles, rubbing my knees. The waiter arrives and drops the bottle of wine and leaves without a word."But before we proceed, wine?" I shake my head no but he goes ahead and pours into a cup anyway."I'll have some, brother!" Kai's clone, or Kaysen, says, taking the cup he had just half filled with alcoholic wine and drinks from it."Kai...." I'm getting a little impatient already. It's clear he didn't bring me here just for a me and him alone time and I want to know his real intentions."Alright alright," he chuckles heartily. " I'll cut to the chase." I nod, giving him the go ahead to speak. He turns to look at his brother and they seem to have like a telepathic conversation with their eyes. They both nod and Kai turns to face me again. I try to ignore the fact that Kaysen has moved far too close to me."We want to make you our woman."The night was eerily quiet, the kind of silence that wrapped around you like a heavy blanket, making you acutely aware of every breath, every heartbeat. The moon hung high in the sky, a silver orb casting an ethereal glow over the clearing that surrounded Kaivan’s cabin. The air was thick with a strange energy, a tension that made my skin tingle and my heart race.I stood at the edge of the clearing, feeling the pull of something I couldn’t quite name. It was as if the forest itself was alive, the trees whispering secrets I wasn’t yet privy to, the wind carrying an ancient, otherworldly melody that I couldn’t fully hear but could feel deep in my bones. I wrapped my arms around myself, not because I was cold, but because I needed to hold onto something—anything—real in that moment.Kaivan stood a few feet away, his eyes reflecting the moonlight like liquid silver. There was something in his gaze that unsettled me, a depth that went beyond the man I had known for such a short time yet f
The drive to the cabin took longer than I expected, but the scenery made it feel like something out of a dream. Towering pines lined both sides of the road, their branches swaying as if they held secrets I wasn’t meant to know. Kaivan sat next to me, his eyes fixed on the road, his usual easy-going attitude replaced by a tense silence. His grip on the steering wheel was tighter than usual, and I could feel his unease, even if he didn’t say a word."You're awfully quiet," I finally said, glancing at him, hoping to lighten the mood.He gave me a small smile, one that didn’t quite reach his eyes. "Just thinking," he replied. "I hope you like the cabin. It’s… special."Something about the way he said "special" sent a flicker of curiosity through me. I’d known Kaivan long enough to tell when something was bothering him, but this time felt different, like he was holding back something big, something important."I’m sure I’ll love it," I said, giving his hand a squeeze. "I’m just glad to be
The dream began like any other—hazy, disjointed images swirling in a foggy, surreal landscape. But as I wandered through the mist, everything sharpened into focus. I found myself in an unfamiliar place, a lush, green meadow bathed in the soft light of the setting sun. The golden hues of the sky bled into deep purples and blues, the air warm against my skin. It was a place of peace, yet a sense of anticipation thrummed in my veins, as though something significant was about to happen. I wasn’t alone. I felt them before I saw them—Kaivan and Kaycen. They appeared as if they’d always been there, emerging from the shadows of the trees that lined the meadow’s edge. Their presence was magnetic, pulling me toward them with an intensity that made my breath hitch. Kaivan was the first to step forward, his eyes locking onto mine with an expression that was both tender and possessive. His shirt clung to his muscled torso, his dark hair tousled as if he’d been running his hands through it. The
I turned to Kaycen and he had a goofy smile on his face. "What?" I giggled."You're beautiful," he whispered.I smiled and hugged them both."Let's have dinner together," I suggested."Sure," they both said.They took me to their house and I made my way to their kitchen to cook.I first suggested we went to a restaurant to eat, but Kai said it'd be better we ate at their house, he also asked if I could spend the night with them, and I told him I would. I cooked pasta while they watched. After I set the table, I served dinner."This is delicious, Didi." Kaycen smiled."It is," Kaivan agreed."Thank you, boys." I giggled.We ate in silence for a few minutes. Then Kaycen looked at me. "What do you want to do tonight?""Watch a movie?" I suggested."I like that idea," Kaivan said."So do I," Kaycen added."Okay," I said. "But we have to do the dishes first."They nodded and we cleaned the kitchen. After we were done, I sat on the couch and the boys joined me."What movie do you want to wat
It was early in the morning and the sun was yet to fully rise when D Black found himself waking up next to the woman he loved. Despite the macho exterior of a robotic man, he was unashamed to say that his heart always felt soft, even vulnerable, around her. His Tiana. His steel grey eyes skimmed over her peaceful face, and the corners of his mouth quirked upward into a smile. This woman had found her way through the formidable fortresses of his heart and made it her own."Gotta leave now, baby," he murmured gently into her ear, leaning in to nuzzle the nape of her neck. A soft sigh of disapproval left her, mumbled protests half asleep. But she rolled over, rubbing her eyes, strands of dark hair obscuring half her face.She rose her head to press a tender kiss to his rugged chin, mumbling an incoherent murmur that meant something like 'Good Luck.'"You're coming back soon, right?" Her eyes peered up at him, dark with the raw, unspoken fear of missing him."Sure thing, honey. I'll be bac
Kaycen wasn't as patient as Kaivan, he wanted his mate to be in his arms right away, he didn't care to understand how Didi felt about all this. How confused and hesitant she was about two men wanting her at the same time. She also had no idea they weren't humans and she was their soulmate. Kaivan knew this and understood, that's why he wanted to take things slow . "Kaivan -" "You need to calm the fuck down, Kayc. I want her just as much as you, Kayc. Hell, I need her, but we have to take things slow. Understand that and please let's focus on the business meeting we have with D Black." Kaivan cut Kaycen off saying. "I know, I know, I'm sorry, I'm just so fucking horny!" Kaycen laughed and Kaivan rolled his eyes. "Kayc, we are going to have a problem if you keep talking like that! You're not getting any of her for a while!" Kaivan said laughing."I don't give a shit, I want her now!" Kaycen said. "You can't be serious, you have a meeting tomorrow morning with a major investor a
