It seemed when the twins made the deal that we had to watch all the movies and not just the original ones they had forgotten to tell Sage she had to stay awake for them. A quarter of the way through The Amazing Spider-Man Sage fell asleep.

I was staring down at where she had turned. When we had watched the other movies, she had been leaning back against me on a pillow. Now her chest was pressed against mine and her arm had threaded around the back of my left shoulder. The pillow had been pushed down separating her groin from mine. It was probably a good thing with the way she moved while she slept. I would feel like a creep rubbing up against her while she wasn't conscious.

Warmth radiated from her cheek and pressed against my right shoulder. Something about the way her face was relaxed made her look so innocent. The soft rumbling in my chest started again. Sage rubbed her cheek on my shirt before moving her head to the center of my chest where the rumbling was more prominent. A small sigh escaped her lips when she settled back down.

"Dude, are you purring?" Caden looked at me past his brother and Dante.

Usually, I would have shrugged but I was worried about disturbing Sage so I loosely wrapped my arms around her to be able to sign. "So what?"

"You're making noise." Aiden points out.

I nod. "I can growl and roar when I'm shifted. I think this is me using my beast's abilities." I say what I assume is happening.

Dante and the twins all furrow their brows in a way that shows they have been living together for years. Dante finally nods, "That makes sense."

Sage murmured in her sleep before settling back down. We all watched her as her lashes feathered out over her cheeks and heavy breaths passed her lips. I had felt like trash the whole day, but at this moment I felt content. I was sure I was coming down with something but having her in my arms made me feel better.

Nobody said anything after that. Sometime during the next movie, I fell asleep too to the soothing pattern of Sage's breathing.

I woke when something pressed up against my side. Slowly my eyes opened to reveal the twins' dark room. The sound of deep breathing came from around me. Sage was still laying on top of me fast asleep. Though the heaviness around her waist had increased from the arm that was thrown around her. An arm that wasn't mine. At some point, Dante had rolled over and put his arm around Sage's waist. A flash from the left made me feel temporarily blinded. A soft snicker let me know it was Caden who had snapped the picture.

Dante moved and I began to hope it was a roll of quarters in his pocket because I wouldn't be able to look at him the same if it wasn't. Trying to distract myself I ran my fingers over Sage's backstopping when my fingers found something soft and velvety. Lifting my hand, I found one soft black feather. Caden walked over towards where I was laying and studied the feather as well. A light iridescence shone when the feather turned. "A feather? Maybe she's a phoenix?" Caden whispered.

I studied it before shaking my head and allowing him to pluck it from my fingers. "It's not red. Besides phoenixes aren't from hell."

Caden was looking closely at the feather, "Fallen angel?" He asked.

I frowned deeply studying Sage for a moment before shaking my head in denial. "No way. She would remember her past and if she had a fallen angel parent there would be no keeping that secret. Their abilities show in adolescence." I signed with him.

"I've got a few rare volumes on Demonic Arcane Species. I'll look through them to see what I can find." Caden spoke, tucking the feather into his shirt pocket.

I was surprised at this. Caden wasn't a big sharer even when it came to the knowledge he had stolen. I was surprised he was willing to use it to help Sage. I guess she affected him as much as she affected me. I looked at the way Dante had curled against us in his sleep and wondered if she affected all of them that way. A thought suddenly came to me. It was crazy and kind of taboo but there was one way we could all get what we wanted. I looked down at Sage wondering if she was better at sharing than Caden and hoping that she was.
