“Why should she stay in your room instead of mine?” I questioned, as my argument with Henrik picked back up after Zoe left to handle her Beta business. “Because I have the better bathroom. Why should Zoe stay in yours?” Henrik countered, folding his arms. “I have the bigger room and bed,” I said, gesturing to my room, which was larger than his, and to my king-size bed. Henrik may have had the better-attached bathroom, but it was at the cost of the larger bedroom. And with the size of his bedroom, he could only fit a queen-size bed if he wanted any floor space. It was a trade-off. And a bigger bathroom wasn’t a good enough reason to make the three of us fit in his smaller bed and share a smaller space. It wasn’t logical. Unless he doesn’t plan for me to be there, too. “Wait… you aren’t trying to create a scenario where it’s just you and Zoe, and I’m stuck on this side of the wall, are you?” I voiced my concern. Henrik’s eyes went wide as he blinked at me. That question caught him

After I’d listened to all my voicemails and read all my missed texts and emails, I video-called Kat and Tie. Between Papa and Alpha Finn, they knew Primo was in isolation as he’d found his mate. They hadn’t tried to force the issue because no one is a big enough asshole to try and separate mates while the female was in heat. That would be some seriously cold-hearted shit, and I don’t mean to Primo. I mean to Ashley. Primo could suffer for all I care. He’s shown he’s a spineless bastard who has no regard for his mate’s physical and mental well-being if he would attack me like that while his mate was in heat. The most his attack on me proved is that his wolf is weak. No male wolf would have come after a marked female while his mate was in active heat. When Kat dropped the latest bombs, I wasn’t sure which was worse or more unbelievable. Vittore Tafani had been stalking Delilah and used his tech skills to ensure she and my brother remained separated these past two years. I remembered th

“There’s not much we can do until Ashley and Livia are out of their heats.” I sighed. “Finn won’t try to separate a newly mated couple like that.” “And if they are here, they can’t do anything. Primo’s only alive for Ashley’s sake. Otherwise, he’d be broken in a few million pieces.” Gunnar snorted. “We understand and agreed with Alpha Finn to wait to force Primo and Livia, now that we know she’s in heat, back to Sicily to face their Alphas.” Tiberius sighed. “So, we will have to wait out the week. In the meantime, we’ll question Ilario and Celestina to try and figure out how Livia could have gotten involved in his mess.” Katrina said. “What about my brother? Primo’s twisted family? And the witch?” Zoe arched her brow. “Alexander is safe. Delilah isn’t letting him leave her side. And from what my brother says, that includes her bed.” Katrina snickered. “Wait? Seriously?” Zoe’s interest suddenly peaked as she leaned closer. “Yep. Papa, Crista, André, and Darren walked in on them i

Was it mean of me to tease Henrik like that? Probably. Do I regret it? Never. I love that I can easily get a rise out of him. Plus, it was entertaining as hell to watch and feel him try to stay in control and not pop wood. I hoped he and Gunnar figured out sleeping arrangements because I meant it when I said I’d make it up to Henrik later. Once I’m done with what I need to do here, I’m going to suggest a location change to fuck both their brains out. I was antsy to finish this meeting, and it was all my fault. I may not be in my heat, but that doesn’t mean I stopped being a horny person. I was always someone with a high libido, so no surprise there. Plus, have you seen my mates? If there is a day where I don’t want to fuck them get me to a medical facility stat. “So, if you don’t feel comfortable with Papa solo traveling to bring Primo and Livia back to Sicily, what is your recommendation?” I asked, putting the decision on Tie and Kat. “It pains me to suggest this, but one name that
Beta's Twin Mates Chapter 51 - Henrik
Should I feel guilty that I want one-on-one time with Zoe? I don’t know. I know I don’t feel guilty. I won’t feel guilty for wanting to be seen and treated as an individual, especially by my mate. It might make me a bad mate and brother, but it’s how I feel. I cannot help my feelings and won’t let anyone tell me I can’t or shouldn’t feel a certain way. I knew Gunnar understood. He may not like it, but he understands it. He may not admit it, but he feels the same way. The only outlier in this is Zoe. Our bond gives me insight into her thoughts and feelings, but that doesn’t mean I can predict how she’ll take everything I said. So, I braced myself for a lecture. “You’re right.” Zoe sighed. I blinked. I expected a lecture not to be told I was right. It’s not often I’m told I’m right, least of all by a woman. Having grown up with five sisters, being right was not an option. I had hoped it would be different with my mate. She’s my soulmate, my other half, so if anyone should understand m

I know we’d just had this very rational and adult conversation about having one-on-one time to strengthen our bonds, but when Gunnar said he would talk with Finn when I suggested moving to the bedroom, it left me feeling weird. I guess I hadn’t expected it to mean right this minute. I couldn’t let it throw me off balance too much. I didn’t want Henrik to feel I was backtracking on our conversation or wanted Gunnar more. Because that was far from the truth. My desire for Henrik is equal to my passion for Gunnar. I can’t and won’t put one mate above the other. So, I didn’t dwell on that feeling like a piece of me was missing, and I focused on Henrik. He deserves my attention. I wrapped my arms around his neck and gave myself over to our bond and how his touch affected me. I gasped into our kiss as I was suddenly off the ground with Henrik’s hands gripping my ass. My legs instinctively wrapped around him, well to the bed they could. I’m not that leggy. I didn’t pay any attention to how

Walking away when Zoe wanted to take us upstairs to fuck was the hardest, and I don’t mean that as a pun, thing I’ve done to date. I cannot express in words how badly I wanted to go upstairs with Zoe and fuck her brains out. Granted, I always want to fuck her brains out. My mate is hot as fuck. I managed to keep my composure despite the feeling I was missing out on something and knew it meant they were at least kissing. I mean, it’s better than feeling the pain of being cheated, but it sucks to feel like I’m being left out. I can suck it up and handle business while they have some afternoon delight. At least, that’s what I kept telling myself as I went to Finn’s office. “Gunnar? What are you doing here?” Finn arched his brow as I let myself into his office. “I did knock.” I pointed at the door, pretty sure I knocked. “Yes, you did.” Finn nodded, still perplexed. “Everything all right?” He asked, leaning slightly as if to try and look past me. I furrowed my brow and looked ove

As enjoyable as post-orgasm cuddling with Henrik is, I knew it couldn’t last forever. Beyond the fact that it’s too early to stay in bed, Henrik isn’t my only mate. I can’t be neglectful of Gunnar. I didn’t want to disturb Henrik, so I tried to extract myself from his arms carefully. That didn’t work the way I’d planned. “Where do you think you’re going?”Henrik asked as his arm tightened around me, pressing me closer to his naked body. I managed to stifle a moan as his cock pressed against my ass. All this skin-to-skin contact was dizzying. Is this where the phrase love drunk comes from? As a werewolf, I’ve never really been drunk; it would take way too much alcohol ingested in a short time to get drunk, so I don’t have a comparison. However, I feel that the mate bond, especially the physical contact, has that same effect. Releasing those endorphins. ‘Didn’t you just say you wouldn’t neglect Gunnar?’ Viatrix reminded me. “I’m going to go find Gunnar. Besides, we can’t just stay in

“Once upon a time long, long ago, at the dawn of werewolves, there was a werewolf called Petridis whom loyalty served and fought alongside Darkness and Light to protect their territory. It was thought Petridis was slain during the battle, but during a blue moon, he rose from the ashes of the fallen, his fur a glow in blue flames.” I began the story for the hundredth time since last year. I know what you’re thinking: what Disney kiddie version of the origins of Incubi did you walk into? You’re still in the right place. The birthday boy and girl have asked me to tell the blue moon story for their cousin Isaiah and Maverick. Why is Maverick here six years after his surprise visit for my and Henrik’s Beta ceremony? Because he’s basically in witness protection. His jackoff dad and psycho half-brother think he’s dead. Finn and Lorna took Maverick in, and when Desmond comes sniffing around, they send him to the various packs we Kilbourns live in to ensure Desmond and his bastard Cormac con

They say time flies when you’re having fun. I’ve had PLENTY of fun between the ages of eighteen and twenty-six, and let me tell you, those eight years did not fly by. So maybe that phrase should be more specific on the kind of fun it’s referring to because these last two years since I met my mates and gave birth to our twins feel like a blink. ‘Or maybe you were having the wrong kind of fun. Fucking around with those other males wasn’t fun. Fucking around with our mates…now THAT’S fun. Spending time without pups is also fun.’ Viatrix snorted. When I’d left home for that trip with Papa and Alexander, I’d hoped to find my mate. Gunnar and Henrik were nothing I expected or thought I’d ever want in a mate. They are arrogant, mouthy, and, at times, downright rude. But they also won’t take my shit. They call me out on my faults and love me not despite my faults but because of them. I didn’t realize what I always needed wasn’t my total opposite. “Iron sharpens iron, sweet pea.” Gunnar taun
Beta's Twin Mates Epilogue - Henrik
It’s been seven months since our beta ceremony. We’d been doing all the tasks Kat assigned us leading up to our ceremony. It was her way of easing us into our roles. However, all bets were off after the ceremony. Kat piled more and more work on us. Thankfully, there were two of us, so we could handle it. I couldn’t be mad that she was giving us more work. It meant she trusted us, plus it took work off her plate as she closed in on her due date. By the time Kat had her surprise twins, we had taken a lot of duties off Kat’s plate. With Zoe and the other ranked members, we ensured the memorial festivities went off without a hitch. Of course, people asked where their Alpha and Luna were, and the pack was thrilled when Zoe addressed their absence in a speech announcing the birth of the twins. A month after Sal and Carletta were born, we moved into the five-bedroom, seven thousand-three hundred ninety-five square foot villa. We agreed to honor the Fayte family, so we didn’t want to make ma

Mama and Papa, of course, had already had their turn. Regina eagerly hugged us, happy that our children would be close in age. Ivan smiled and nodded with a firm handshake to Gunnar and Henrik. Next was my brother and Delilah. This was our first time in the same place with everything going on. Alexander hugged me and offered Gunnar his hand. “I haven’t formally introduced myself. Welcome to the family. I’m Alexander, and if you ever hurt or piss my sister off, I won’t provide medical assistance.” Alexander delivered his greeting with his serious face, confusing my mates as they shook his hand. “Are you fucking with us?” Gunnar asked. “Cause either way, if we piss Zoe off, we know the consequences, a stone timeout.” Henrik laughed. Delilah rolled her eyes and hugged me tightly, or as tight as someone with a belly as big as hers could. “I’m so happy for you, Zoe. You’ve found your mates, and now we all get to be truly family.” “Oh please, even if you were never my brother’s mate, we

There are a million ways tonight could have gone. Many things could have gone wrong, from meeting the extended Kilbourn family to telling Gunnar and Henrik about the pregnancy and their ceremony. At the airport, it went bad because Alfred was an asshole who needed to learn to keep his mouth shut. If Finn hadn’t gotten involved back at the packhouse, Alfred would have learned the hard way that there are worse things that can happen than being turned to stone. I’ll admit I was looking forward to seeing André, Zio Alec, or Mama put Alfred in his place. Sure, it was probably for the best that Finn did so. It still would’ve been far more entertaining if it was one of my family members. Alfred thought there was danger here when they landed, misguided fool. Any threat in Sicily would never be directed at the boy but at him for his stupidity. So, it would’ve been nice for him to learn that lesson. I thought that would be the end of it. Finn had commanded him not to speak unless in praise. Pr

Leave it to our dad to open his mouth and insert his foot so deep his toes are coming out of his ass. Are our suits our style? No. Are they something we’d pick for ourselves? No. Are they possibly just a bit too much? Maybe. Have we made a complaint about them beyond the fit? Hell fucking no. It doesn’t matter that André designed these suits to pair with Zoe’s gown. Knowing the designer is someone I don’t want to cross helps, but that’s not the point. We are in Nebrodi, and this is how things are done. Our suits are aligned with the styles of all the other ranked males. Dad should know better than to mock the customs of a foreign pack. He’s the one who told us always to be respectful while visiting another pack, as you never know who you could offend. And he’s just offended the wrong people. I wanted to see how he’d escape this if he could. The D’Amore family has yet to show they are the easily placated type. Even if he could somehow get out of trouble with some apologies and com

I knew Dad would say or do something to make Zoe angry. It was inevitable. Plus, I think she’s been itching to stone him since she first heard about his lack of involvement in our upbringing. So, it was never an if but a when that she’d stone him. While Lorna’s nephew's arrival with them was unexpected, there was no reason for his behavior. I don’t know what circumstances brought Maverick to Finn and Lorna’s doorstep, but there wasn’t a need to act like he was in danger here. It was disrespectful as fuck. It’s like he thought Nebrodi, Madonie, or Incubi would want to hurt the little kid. That was unacceptable, and he’s damn lucky Zoe was the only ranked member of the packs here. Dad and I may not see eye-to-eye on many things, but I don’t want to see him dead. And I’m about ninety percent sure that dead or at least hospitalized is what he’d be if he had pulled this shit and it was any of the D’Amores present. He should know better. Thankfully, we weren’t riding in the same car as Da

Watching Gunnar and Henrik interact with their nephews and nieces, despite the long separation, was a heartwarming sight. I had always known they were good with children, having witnessed their interactions with the heirs at Ironfur and here. But seeing them in this familial setting, I was certain they would be exceptional fathers. We had discussed the possibility of having children, but it was a different feeling to think about it as a near-future reality. I tried to hide my relief when they confessed they both hoped to be dads sooner rather than later. I managed to stop myself from touching my belly. I’d already been doing my best not to think about the positive pregnancy test I took this morning. Kat had been nagging me for a few days to take one and showed up in my office this morning when I was doing some last-minute work and had me take it. I haven’t been able to tell Gunnar and Henrik yet. I figured I’d wait till we got through to their family’s arrival. I wanted them to know

I knew the Petridis family learning about our talents would come out eventually. Just as I knew Henrik’s would instantly be accepted as Zoe and her parents are singers. There hadn’t been many occasions for me to show off my skills unless you count strip teases for Zoe or that happy dance the day after the family dinner when that hag Ersilia lost her head. Now that the bitch is dead, I was looking forward to things getting to a new normal. No more long days trying to track her down. The hunters, fuck it’s weird that hunters were on our side, were able to explain how Ersilia stayed hidden from being scented or magically tracked. Angels! Mother fucking ANGELS! I’d never seen one till I got a look at Bert. He was the only angel the hunters left alive for questioning. I don’t know if all angels smell the same, but Castor and I committed the scent to memory. I don’t understand why the angels were working with Ersilia and won’t till the hunters get Bert to crack, but if they were involved i
