No, not one man.

Two.

Twins.

“What do we have here?” the first one drawled, mischief lighting up his face as he strolled into the room. “Theo, have we ever had such a personal touch from a photographer?”

“Can’t say we have,” Theo responded, hot on his brother’s heels. “Think we’ve been hiring the wrong people.”

“You’re both models?” I said, my hand finally dropping away. Despite my earlier thoughts, it was professional interest that had me eyeing them.

“As much as Rami is,” the first twin said. He extended his hand for me to shake. “I’m Nate.”

When my hand slid into his, there was a growling sound from Rami. I glanced over to see him glaring at Nate. Odd.

“And I’m Theo,” the other one said, shoving his brother aside. He didn’t shake my hand, instead opting to lift it to his lips and brush them over my skin. I blushed at the gesture, but there was no electricity there. I’d felt far more touching Rami’s chest a few moments ago.

You shouldn’t be feeling anything for anyone except Dave, remember?

Suddenly, Rami’s hands were on my shoulders, tugging me backwards. He didn’t let go, even when I collided with his broad chest. “You two are interrupting.”

“We’re bored,” Nate said, his attention lingering on me. “We wanted to meet this photographer who’s got you so…excited.”

“I think you mean Sam.” I chuckled. “He’s the one who hired me. Rami’s just putting up with my endless photo shoots.”

“He really seems like he’s struggling with it,” Theo said with a smirk. I was glad they hadn’t swapped sides at all. They were so identical that I already knew I wouldn’t be able to tell them apart if they moved.

Sam hadn’t been lying about the attractiveness of their housemates. These two, plus Zeke, were some of the most handsome men I’d ever seen.

None of them held a candle to Rami, though.

“You’ve got fascinating eyes,” I said, leaning forwards to study Nate’s closer. Rami kept hold of my shoulders, simply moving with me. “I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone with that colour before. Is that lilac?”

“It is,” Nate said. “Goes well with our hair, don’t you think?”

The shock of white atop their heads did bring out the colour. It’d photograph beautifully. “It really does. Do you dye it?”

Theo scoffed. “No. We’re all natural, baby.”

There was another low growl from behind me.

I twisted to face Rami. I didn’t know how he managed to keep his hands on my shoulders, but he did. “Are you okay? Do you need to stop for food or something?”

“Huh?”

“Your stomach keeps grumbling.” I touched his abs lightly, and the electricity that was missing with Theo returned in full force. “We have time. You should eat.”

“Yeah, Rami,” one of the twins said from behind me. Not facing them meant I didn’t know which. “We can keep Ethan busy while you’re eating.”

“We should be shirtless, right?”

Rami’s hands tightened on my shoulders as his nostrils flared. “If you remove one single item of clothing, I swear to god…”

There was the distinct sound of fabric hitting the floor. “You’ll do what, Rami?”

Suddenly, I understood exactly what he’d meant when he said it wasn’t my skin he was worried about. Theo and Nate were, indeed, troublemakers. Troublemakers who seemed to have no issue getting under Rami’s skin.

“Actually, we need to get back to the shoot,” I said, staring up at Rami’s square jaw. “It’s been great to meet you, but we’ve got a lot of ground to cover today, so it’s best if you leave us to it.”
