Accepting My Twin Mates Chapter 31

Chapter 31 – Expectations?

Astennu

Groaning a little, I turned over. How my gamble last night had paid off, I was still trying to figure out. I couldn’t recall a time I had fallen asleep so content. Aroused as hell, but content nonetheless. I would have loved to have known exactly what happened in her dream, though it was doubtful she would ever tell either of us. Given her reaction to my brother and I showing up at her door, it must have started in a similar way. Knowing she was having those sorts of fantasies about me was somewhat daunting. How would I compare in reality? The real me was pitifully inexperienced and what was intimidating was the certain expectations on me as an Alpha for ‘performance’.

I would worry about that when the time came.

For now, I just wanted to enjoy having Evie so close. Her arm slipped around my waist and her face nuzzled into the crook of my neck. As my sleep faded and I began to wake, her body increasingly felt wrong. Where were the tingles? Her breath fanning against my skin sent no shiver of delight rippling through me.

The gentle laughter I heard definitely belonged to Evie… but it wasn’t from behind me.

“Are you two spooning?”

Blinking the sleep from my eyes, I turned, seeing the figure behind me was in fact my brother, curled up against me like a cat.

“I had no clue you were that close,” she continued her quite sniggering.

I pushed his arm off and scooted away a little, much to his sleepy protests.

“Mmmf, I was comfy,” he complained.

He had yet to grasp reality, so I hit him in the arm to wake up.

“Why do you keep punching me?” He stretched, still unaware.

“That one’s too easy,” Evie shook her head.

Upon hearing her voice, my brother was fully awake in a second and sitting upright. The sleep disappeared instantly as his eyes landed on our mate in nothing but a towel.

“Now that’s a sight to wake up to,” Badru grinned, before his brows furrowed as his sleep-addled brain cell caught up. “Wait… who was I spooning?”

“Who do you think?” Evie sniggered.

“Why would you let me spoon you?” My brother asked, annoyed, pulling his t-shirt over his head.

“I thought it was her,” I indicated our mate. “And there was the little issue that I was unconscious?”

“Think you’d have noticed the arm hair,” he muttered.

“Oh go chase a squirrel!” I snapped. If he was going to embarrass me, I would repay the favour.

“Hey! That was one time.”

“Please tell me it was in your human form!” Evie cackled, switching on the heater. We really needed to get her radiator fixed.

“Very funny,” he narrowed his eyes, a hue of pink dusting his neck. “It was when I first shifted and my wolf was a little excitable, ok?”

“He chased it around a tree for, like, ten minutes, barking,” I laughed, while my twin pouted.

His wolf was an exaggerated version of his human; a ferocious fighter that could switch with the same breath to an exuberant pup, not that he showed the latter to many.

Evie grabbed a few items of clothing after I told her to pick out something warm. We would be spending some of the day outdoors, though she was always welcome to warm up in my arms if she was getting a little chilly. She disappeared back into her bathroom to change, much to my brother’s disappointment, given his heavy exhale.

“How long has your heating been out?” He called.

“I first reported it a month ago, maybe?” Her muffled reply came from behind the door.
