Meryn gave him a sly look. "It gets better." Before they knew it, the two boys were now up in the older boy's bedroom. The older boy was trying to get the younger boy to sit on the bed.
Caspian's cheeks flushed. "Oh my, I think I know where this is going."
Broderick laughed. "This reminds me of our first date."
Meryn jumped and turned around in her gamers seat excitedly. "I just had the best idea!" she exclaimed. She looked at Caspian and Broderick. "I want to learn about the butt sex."
Aiden began to choke on his pie. Declan tried to help Aiden by hitting him on the back to clear his airway. Unfortunately, he was laughing so hard, most of the hits ended up pounding Aiden's arm.
Bethy and Gavriel just stared. Magnus shook his head, while Caspian and Broderick looked at her like she was crazy. Bethy finally gasped, inhaled, and began to choke on her tea.
Tarragon jumped up and quickly ran to her side. A faint yellow light appeared at her back, and slowly, Bethy was able to breathe again. Kari turned her attention back to Meryn. Meryn and Avery were now both on their knees on their gaming chairs and looking at Broderick and Caspian with big puppy dog eyes. Broderick looked at Caspian, who shook his head.
"I had the talk with Bethy; it's your turn."
"Meryn!" Aiden exclaimed, finally catching his breath. "You don't need to know about that."
Meryn scowled at him. "I'm not trying to get pregnant again."
Broderick rubbed his chin. "Technically, that could still happen."
Meryn shrugged. "I'll take my chances."
Broderick blushed as Bethy laughed at his discomfort. "I...I..." he stuttered. "I'm not quite sure where to start."
"Start with the butt," Meryn said, trying to help.
Broderick's mouth opened and closed and then opened and closed again. He looked at his mate who was cracking up hysterically, his arms wrapped around his stomach.
Declan slipped his hand into hers. "Come on, I really don't need this lesson." He winked at her. "Let's go introduce you to the guys."
Kari ruffled Avery's hair and then winked at Meryn. She knew that Meryn had broken the ice and had been asking these uncomfortable questions for Avery's sake. She couldn't love the little midget more.
Kari and Declan arrived at the Unit Level and Declan led the way. They stopped in front of a large building, and even from the outside, they could hear laughter behind the doors.
Declan turned her. "We're having more fun now than we've had in decades. I'm not sure whether it's Adriel loosening up or having the twins here, but either way, it's becoming common practice for the guys now meet up here. We call this the unit house. It has a large kitchen, eating room, and media center. Everything you need just to hang out." He opened the door, and Kari walked in behind him.
Somebody to their left shouted, "Congratulations!"
Another voice called, "Nice bite marks!"
Another male voice teased, "Lucky bastard!"
Declan laughed and wrapped a possessive arm around her waist. "Gentlemen, I would like you to meet my mate, Kari Delaney. Kari, these jokers are Noctem Fall's unit warriors."
"Is it true that your brother is mated to Warrick?" somebody asked.
"That's Viktor BelleRose," Declan said identifying the speaker.
Kari nodded. "Yes, though technically they will not be mated until next month when Avery turns one hundred."
"Any other cuties?" a handsome, sandy haired man asked.
"That is Beau Westerly," Declan said, offering another name.
Kari turned to Beau. "Sorry no, just he and I."
Declan went around the room introducing the men, Kari was sure she'd never remember them all.
