21 - Chapter Twenty-One - Emerald Victorian's Point Of View.

“Years have gone by*

Quinn invited me and the boys out to the beach with him, Lucca said hewould join us out there when he was finished with an important stackof paperwork. Lucca and I hated the fact that our twin boys would be16 soon. They were by no means grown-ups, they acted like they were5, they pulled pranks on Lucca,

The latest prank they pulled was they took his car and moved it to thegrandparents house and said that he told them to put it there for alittle while. I thought Lucca was going to kill our kids.

Alex was the biggest trouble maker though, he was forever startingproblems. Benji was quiet and was always in his room, Lucca tries to gethim to be one with the family but he just prefers to be on his own. Buthe has been like that since he was ten, I'm worried he will just be lonelyand won't have someone who understands his wants and needs,someone that isn't his twin brother Alex. Alex being the troublemakerhad his fair share of problems that made me glad Ben wasn't like him,but Alex also had a really good side to him, but we really only saw thatwhen Ben was involved or he was talking to me.

Which got me thinking about recently, the boys were quite obsessedwith Quinn's son, Atlas, They followed him around like a lost puppy andpicked on him lightly when they got a good chance too. It made mewonder if just perhaps there would be a future with all the boys, but Iwasn't going to get my hopes up in the circumstance.

I packed up the boys and told them to behave, I let Ariel sit up front,Ariel is just like me, short with a loud personality, he would make awonderful king or queen if he gets the chance. Lucca and I will typicallyrule for 5-6 centuries. ( 500 -600 years)

The twins sat in the back, Alex was pestering Benji, calling him namesand taking his book away from him until Benji slapped Alex right in themouth. They were going to have a backseat brawl. I hated this part ofhaving young teenage demons that we strung highly and liked to solvetheir current problems with violence,

"Enough you two, don't make me drop you back off with your father,Do you understand”

"Si Mama,” Benji said smiling.

"Yes Mother" Alex said Shooting his twin a dirty look.

We arrived and I made the twins carry the beach stuff, Quinn saw meand waved us over. I just wanted to bury myself in the sand, my earswere ringing from all the fighting and I so badly just wanted to rip themboth a new rear hole, but that's what I had a big scary husband for afterall.

"Alex, Ben, You two better behave, don't make me tell you're father,” Isaid, scarring the boys once more for good measure, after all, I didn'tneed them making a scene on the beach

Ariel and Quinn's boy Atlas got along really well, they were alwaystogether. Quinn and I hopped they were mates, with all the time theyspent together. But again, It was hard for me to think that when I sawthe way the twins were with Atlas.

" Has Thanatos made any move into Forest's life?" I asked, Quinn, hadtold me about what was going on with forests’ future around the sametime he told me he was an elder wolf.

" He hasn't spoken to me or Kane since the wedding, even his parentswon't return my calls. Honestly, it scares me that one day I'm going towake up and the forest will be missing” Quinn said, fear showing on hisface. I really felt bad for him, Quinn had been through so much andthere was the constant fear hanging over his head that the vampireprince would come to steal his boy and take him away forever. If thatwere to happen it would damage Quinn so deeply and I just knew it inmy soul.

"I'm sure he would say something,” I said, trying to help Quinn getover his fear, no parent should be afraid their child is going todisappear.

"1 would hope so" he mumbled

" How did Forest's first shift go?” I asked

" He was huge, almost as big as his father, * Quinn said Pride on hisface.

"Wow, I can't wait till Atlas is old enough he's going to be massive"

" Gosh I can't tell you how much he is like Kane, they sleep, eat and actthe same *

" That's like the twins, they are so much like Lucca it scares me"

* Any child that acts like our husbands should scare us,” I said and bothme and Quinn had the world's largest laugh. If our boys turned out likeour husbands it would be just our luck.

We stood up and went to join our boys on the beach. Alex wasthrowing sand at Atlas, Benji for some reason attacked Alex andsmashed his face right into the sand, they chose the perfect time tofight, I was going to say something when I hurried Lucca yell clearpissed off

" THAT IS NOT THE WAY YOUNG PRINCES SHOULD ACT YOUARSEHOLES," Lucca screamed, walking up to the twins started had thesand dusted off them and were both looking at me to rescue themfrom the wrath of their angry father,

I loved my family and come hell or high-water I would be there forthem. They all knew that though, that's why they put up with me.

I watched from the beach as Lucca chased the boys around and Arieland Atlas made sandcastles. It wasn't too long after that that the twinscame to bother poor Atlas. Alex pulled his hair and flattened hissandcastle. Benji didn't like that and tried to help rebuild his sandcastlebefore just deciding that beating up his twin was a great way to avengeAtlas’ castle. If that poor boy was their mate he was in for so much helland I truly felt for him.
