Emmett looked surprised.
    “Me?” Duncan pointed to his chest.
    “Boilermaker, because you always have to outdo your younger twin.” Rhys laughed at Duncan’s
    shocked expression.
    “Us?” David and Daniel looked eager to hear his response.
    “Shirley Temples. I know better than to give you two alcohol.” They laughed.
    “Me?” Peyton asked quietly.
    “Pina Colada. Something tropical and sweet.”
    “Wow, that sounds good.” Peyton nodded.
    “How about me, my mate?” Moe whispered from behind him. Rhys shivered.
    “Single-malt scotch.” Rhys swallowed hard at the heated look Moe was giving him.
    “Someone hose these two off, lord have mercy.” Rian whistled using the drink menu to fan them.
    Rhys’s felt his cheeks catch fire. He shook his head. He hadn’t blushed as much in the last two centuries as
    he had in the past couple days with his mate. Moe chuckled and moved on to continue stocking.
    “What about us, Rhys?” Gina called from the table where she sat with Cecelia.
    Rhys brought his hand to his chin and looked the two young women over.
    “Gina, you’re a dry white wine. I think people expect you to be sweet because you’re so cute, but you
    have a dry sense of humor.” Cecelia giggled and nodded at her friend. Rhys looked at the quieter of the two
    and shook his head surprised.
    “Cecelia, darling, you’re a Blue Motherfucker.” Everyone stopped what they were doing to stare at the
    woman.
    “What on earth is that?” Gina asked.
    “It’s super sweet and tangy. Blue Curacao, 7 Up and Sweet and Sour mix is like candy in your mouth.
    It’s so sweet you’re not expecting what happens next.” Rhys paused for dramatic effect. Everyone leaned
    forward a bit.
    “Then wham! The vodka, gin, rum and tequila sneak up and fuck you up. Yup darling, that is most
    definitely you. Sweetness personified, but I would never want to get on your bad side.” Rhys winked.
    Cecelia was blushing furiously.
    “Okay, I feel better with you going out of town after hearing that. I mean I know you can take care of
    yourself, but it’s nice to hear that someone else can see it too.” Gina breathed a sigh of relief.
    “Where you going, Cecelia?” Rian asked.
    “Brighton. My friend Connie is celebrating her mating. They have chosen to combine their celebration
    with the Community party. Because of the Drainers, Brighton has elected an Alpha, and everyone is moving
    in closer together to form like a neighborhood watch. They have purchased an old turn-of-the-century
    apartment building that they are renovating. She showed me pictures. The architecture is gorgeous, but it
    needs a lot of work.” Cecelia’s voice was quiet but clear.
    “How do you elect an Alpha?” Damian asked confusion on his face. Cecelia shrugged.
    “She said that the group dominants couldn’t agree on whom to put in charge. The wolves wanted their
    Alpha, the lions wanted theirs. It was chaos until a large biker group stopped in town. They showed up at
    the council room to ask for permission to stay a few days and walked into an argument of epic
    proportions.”
    “The biker group is evidently a mixed bag, shifters of all kinds and their Alpha is a hybrid. He walked
    in, shouted everyone down, took charge of the meeting so he could get permission for his group. The
    Alphas right then and there offered him the position. As a hybrid he owed no group any allegiance or favor.
    So the man walked in asking for a place to stay a few nights and walked out the Alpha of the largest
    community of shifters outside of Arkadia.”
    “Connie steers clear of them. Her mate is beta to the town’s wolf Alpha. He has butt heads with the
    biker Alpha. Connie thinks it’s male posturing, she says that the hybrid Alpha has taken protecting everyone
    very seriously. He said that if he is responsible for their safety then he wants everyone under one roof.” She
    shook her head at the thought.
    “Lions and tigers and bears oh my,” Duncan
