Zara rolled her eyes.
“Grab a chair,” Low offered.
“Julian and Mattie,” Zara called, pointing down to the opposite end of the table. “You guys are sharing that end together because Ruby and Dillon are still joining us, and they’ll sit by Drake.”
“We don’t mind being squished together at all,” Julian told her.
With Talon at the head of the twelve-seater table, well, thirteen with an extra chair at the other end, Dad sat on his left with Zara on Talon’s right. Beside her was Swan and then Drake, with the two extra seats spare. So, since Mum was next to Dad, I moved Eve over to sit by her, then Quake, and I took my seat on the end near Julian.
It was crowded but felt good because it was all family.
As we dished up our meals, Ruby shouted from the front of the house, “We’re here.”
Zara smiled, and we all looked to the entryway where Ruby walked in, followed by Dillon.
“Hey, Dilbert,” Dragon called.
“Shut up, Drake,” Ruby snapped.
I gasped and looked around Quake to Eve. “I forgot I told you Dragon and Ruby are twins too.”
Eve smiled softly before she looked to Ruby. “Hi, I’m Eve. I have a twin back in America. A brother too. His name’s Tech.”
I was about to explain who Eve and Quake were to me, but before I could say anything, Quake did. “Hey, I’m Quake. Eve and I are datin’ Rommy.”
My grin was super big when I saw their gazes widen. Ruby looked to me, and I nodded. “Yep, I snagged two. They came to Australia to tell me they love me. Me! Can you believe it?”
Quake curled an arm around my shoulders and kissed my temple. “It’s easy to believe because the love is for you, Rommy.”
“Exactly,” Eve added.
Julian sniffed, and I caught Dad and Talon sharing a look. They both tipped their chins up at each other, and I knew without a doubt they’d accepted my people.
Ruby cleared her throat. “Congratulations, Rommy.” She turned to Eve and Quake as she and Dillon sat down. “As you heard, I’m Ruby, and this is my boyfriend, Dillon.”
“I thought it was Dilbert,” Quake said.
Dragon, Dad, and Talon chuckled. Even Dillon smiled, but Ruby lifted her hand and smacked her twin in the back of the head. “See what you’re doing.” She sighed.
“It’s fine, baby,” Dillon said.
“At least he’s a good sport about it,” I said. “I’m sure Dragon and Talon call you different names because it’s their way to show they care about you,” I suggested and waited five seconds before?—
“What the fuck, Rommy. No, I don’t,” Dragon grumbled.
“You’ve lost it, kid,” Talon clipped.
Swan and Zara hid their smiles behind their hands.
Dillon sat up straighter as Ruby said, “That’s actually sweet.”
Dragon picked up his knife and pointed it at me. “I’m gonna kill you.”
I snorted. “I’d like to see you try.”
But it was Eve that surprised me by saying, “You won’t even get near her.”
“Damn right,” Quake added, glaring at Dragon.
