changed color on his every command, and you had yourself a walking Christmas god.
Let's be real. If you hate Christmas, it's because you couldn't get an autograph from this hot thing of a fae.
Orange eyes like sunsets (complete with gold stars for a little added romance) and his ability to shift his height simply added to the fantasy he gave women — and men — every day with his face up on billboards and wall art.
And why had his parents given him up? Because he was too cute.
His parents said he attracted way too much attention with his cuteness, and due to their status and jobs at the time, it was necessary to keep him out of the public eye.
Or just everyone's eye.
Who knew if they were undercover spies, or maybe just didn't want to carry the burden of raising Dominick, but whatever the case, I had always wondered if they regretted it with how famous and successful Dominick had become.
He was the youngest billionaire in the world, and even with his jaw-dropping, panty-throwing looks, he could walk around the mall without getting mobbed. He might have to deal with a few autograph-seekers and human stalkers, of course, but the one thing about supernaturals was that they respected one's space.
Unless they're sent to kill you.
We'd only had one close call with a crazy stalker, but many forgot that Dominick was a fae and what they called a master. It was a fancy title to say he had the ability to control all the elements connected to nature. So fire, water, earth, the cool stuff.
He's basically a sexy Aang from Avatar. The animated series, of course.
Then there were my Von Dolorosa twin bros.
Otis and Adonis, twenty-five-year-old identical twins who somehow each took the entire genetic pool of one parent. Otis was a vampire like his father, while Adonis took his incubus trait from his succubus mother.
Their parents had obviously enjoyed a fling, a common activity among supernaturals to create potential badass hybrid children. When they gave birth to the twins, they expected both would be hybrids, and take over their fortune and coven while also having the ability to control with merely their voices…but their baby cocktail didn't go as planned.
Which was why the twins were ditched and raised by Everett.
The looked exactly the same with their short black hair — that they either spiked up or gelled back depending on their moods — and their daunting purple eyes, but they were complete opposites.
Adonis was chilled back and only cared about having a good time. He took things slow unless it meant getting to the bedroom faster, and he could whisk any supernatural off their feet with a little hint of tune.
Adonis was actually a balladeer who sang deep, soul-hitting romance songs. Some could break your heart and others could get you from zero to one thousand in the bedroom with the first three words.
Seeing as he only started at the beginning of this year, he was only a millionaire at the moment, but I was sure he'd end up on the Forbes list with Dominick by the new year.
Though he was relaxed most of the time, he actually was a hard worker when he wasn't reading or writing lyrics.
Or slicing all the lingerie I own for shits and giggles.
He also loved to paint his nails the aforementioned black or purple. No one ever teased or questioned him as to why he liked to do his nails, and it really wasn't anyone's business. It made him happy, and none of us cared.
Unless he ever chooses another color. Then we'll have questions.
His brother, on the other hand, was the complete opposite.
Otis was a jackass. No, that word wasn't close to defining his asshole personality. Maybe it was a vampire thing, or maybe he just liked being an angry jerk, but he was the definition of anger management problems.
His only two expressions were a frown and an emotionless glare, and if he did crack a smile, it was either because he was genuinely happy — which happened about three times a year in our group — or because he was excited to stab people with his nails and drain every bit of their blood.

That was one of the odd things about Otis. Though his outer appearance was like a harsh whip of approaching death, he did a lot for the supernatural community, especially for vampires.
He was the youngest CEO of the biggest blood supplier in the world, with his biggest lab right
