Ledger nods as Khazon finally leaves.

“Oh, trouble in paradise?” Inarian teases.

I roll my eyes. “More likeHell, Inari.”

“Don’t call me that.” He groans.

Jigsaw takes off a glove and hesitantly touches the couch, but when it doesn’t sizzle under his touch, his eyes widen. “Oh shit. This is what cottonfeelslike?”

Hazen chuckles, sitting next to me. “Wait until he feels the silk sheets.”

He looks up at us with wide eyes, the green brightening with excitement. His smile is lighting up his eyes as he pets the couch like it’s a cat.

My lips curl.

Hazen touches my back, sitting down near me. “Are you okay?”

I scoff. “Why does everyone keep asking that? I’m fine, fantastic.”

“As Fen was shouting your name, you were staring off,” Inarian says.

I wave them all off. “Whatever. I’m fine. Let’s watch a movie.”

“Depends what,” Jigsaws says, ditching his gloves and sitting on the couch.

I glance at his pale ivory hands. Faint white scars cover his skin, and then I notice every blue vein that runs toward his knuckles. Slowly, I pull my eyes away. I can’t help but wonder about the scars on his body. “Want to watchSaw?” I tease.

He rolls his eyes.

“Fine,” Inarian says huskily, plopping on the other side of the couch.

I look at him. He agreed with something I said. I didn’t even mean it because it was a joke.

His short black hair falls into his eyes as we lock eyes.

“Are you staring again?”

I roll my eyes, twisting to the TV. “Ass.”

“Devil,” he mutters back.

I’m okay with that.

My father enters with Fen, perfect timing. “I’ll be cooking dinner tonight. Are you all okay with pie for dessert?’

Nods from all of us makes him leave.

Fen hands off water to everyone before sitting next to Hazen and Ledger.

The kid is trying to steal my men… and succeeding. My men… How weird is that to hear from me?

I put on the horror movie before leaning against Hazen’s side. He adjusts, wiggling his arm free to wrap it around me. I tense up a bit. Even though Ledger and I had cuddled last night, we ended up moving apart. Hazenwantsto cuddle.

It doesn’t matter, anyway. Halfway through the movie, I end up falling asleep and don’t even notice until I feel a tap on my thigh. I open my eyes and glance over at Fen. He has a blanket over his head, and he smiles at me.

Oh, am I getting cuddlesanda blanket?

Smiling, I wiggle myself down and lay my head against Hazen’s thigh before holding out my arms, half on my back. Fenric climbs between me and the back of the couch, placing his head on my chest and covering me with blankets.
