Bullied By My Four Mates Chapter 39: The Aftermath
AVAOnce we were sure neither Oscar or I were having any kind of immediate negative reaction to our mating, the three of us headed back to the pack house. As we ran, I thought I saw something in the woods; someone watching us. I slowed to more of a trot, Callum slowing down to match my speed.“Ava, you okay?” Callum’s voice through the mindlink was concerned.“I thought I saw someone,” I replied. “Someone watching us.”“Let me check it out.”“Not on your own, Callum.”“I’m literally your destined protector, Ava, I’ve got this.”“I told you that I will not let you shove me away from danger forever, Callum. I’m not hiding behind a tree.”Artemis hid our scent, and we crept forward into the woods, listening and looking out for trouble. There was the faint smell of a wood fire and meat cooking… Someone had set up a camp here recently. But they’d gone.Then… the smell hit me.“Rogues,” I growled through the mind link. “They know.”“Know what?!” Callum’s voice was frantic.“That I marked y

AVAAn hour later, my Kings, Jacob, Alex and I were all sitting around the table in my office. My coffee machine had even arrived and been set up! Jacob rolled his eyes at me, knowing that I’d been telling him for a long time that he should have one in his office. He drinks more than enough coffee to justify the expense.Once we were all seated with coffee and some of Paula’s orgasmic muffins, we got down to business.“So, Jacob, Alex. I’ll have to start from the beginning of this story.” I paused for a bite of muffin. “I was visited by the Moon Goddess in a dream.”They gasped.“The rogues will come for me on the next full moon, so we only have six days to avert this. One of the easiest ways for me to be safe is to have all four marks before then, however, I can’t necessarily have them that close together. With each mark, both the King Consort in question and I will gain new powers, but we don’t know what they are. When Callum and I marked and mated, as you all saw, things went a lit

AVAAlex nodded, a massive smile on his face after watching my silent interaction with one of his sons. “I’m glad my sons are fated to you, Ava,” Alex’s voice was grateful through the mindlink. “Me too,” I replied.“Where do you want to start, Ava?” Jacob had a smile on his face too.Theo, as ever, looked jealous. If anyone was going to be a problem for this relationship, it was Theo.“Callum and Oscar need to experiment with their new powers; in Oscar’s case, we need to work out what they are. Theo, Noah, if you two work with Oscar, see if you can find out what he can do. Stress is always a good way of bringing out powers, so the three of you could always spar.” The three of them nodded.“Callum… his powers are all in defence and offence,” I glanced at Callum, biting my bottom lip. “The offensive skills are easy enough to explore. The defensive… I have an idea, Callum, but you’re not going to like it.”He growled. “I can see where this is going.”My lips were pursed. “It’s the best

AVAI couldn’t help but laugh when I heard Callum had sent his dad flying through the mud.“I’m sorry, Alex, I’m trying not to laugh,” I giggled.“You’re not sorry, Ava, I can see in your face that you’re proud of Callum for knocking his old man on his ass.”“You know it!” I wiped away the tears that had started appearing in the corners of my eyes.We carried on testing Callum’s defensive abilities for a while, before deciding we should explore my enhanced senses.Alex found a blindfold, which Callum used to cover my eyes. “Callum,” I mind linked him. “It’s going to be hard, but I need you to not protect me for this spar. I need to know what I can do.”“I know,” he replied, voice tense. “It’ll be hard, but I promise I’ll try.”“Thank you.” I reached up, cupping his face and bringing him down to kiss me, before telling Alex to get going whenever he was ready.The first time he ran at me, I only just dodged the kick in time. From then on, though, I managed to not just dodge, but actual
Bullied By My Four Mates Chapter 43: Magic Fingers
AVAWe scoured the rogue camp for what felt like hours, and all we found out is that there must have been five of them and that they hadn’t been gone long.Once we were all back at the pack house, the Kings and I opted to have a quiet dinner by the lake instead of dealing with the chaos of the dining room.By the time we reached the lake, the team had put together a picnic for the five of us, complete with candles. We toasted to us before settling into the selection of goodies Paula had picked out for us. I could tell it was Paula from the sheer quantity of baked goods she included.Once we’d all eaten our fill, we relaxed on the shore, watching the stars over the lake. Theo and Noah sat on either side of me, their arms around the bottom of my back. Oscar and Callum sat off to the side, and I could clearly tell they were mindlinking each other.I glanced up at Noah, and saw that he and Theo were linking as well. I rolled my eyes, taking advantage of their distraction to get up, strip
Bullied By My Four Mates Chapter 44: We’re Going Hunting
Five days until the full moonAVAThe next morning, I was sitting in my Jacob’s office with Alex discussing border security. Or that had been the plan, anyway.Right up until we got word that someone vaguely resembling Matthew Stanley had been sighted not far outside our territory.Now we knew that, we were going after him instead.I’d put a mental block on my emotions, trying not to let my stress, anger and even really bloodlust bleed through to Callum and Oscar. This needed to be a stealth mission, with as few wolves involved as possible. The wolves best suited for the job were Alex and I, but I did not want to have to tell Callum and Oscar that their dad and mate were off on a stealth kidnapping mission.“Ava… I know you don’t want to, but we should tell Callum where you and Alex are off to.” Jacob’s voice was careful, controlled.“Do you really want to have to tell him that his mate and father are going off on a dangerous stealth mission to capture someone that we know is working

CALLUMSomething about this entire situation didn’t sit right with me.I leaned against a tree at the edge of the clearing where we found the body, watching Ava look for anything that might help us work out what’s going on. She hadn’t been combing through the undergrowth long when Jacob and dad reached back out to us both through the mindlink.“Ava, Matthew is a twin. Identical.”I saw Ava’s mouth fall open at Jacob’s words.“He’s a twin? And Martha didn’t think to tell us this?”I was suddenly very glad that Ava’s power couldn’t truly affect me since we mated because if it still did, I’d have been forced to my knees from the weight of her anger.I walked towards her, wrapping my arms around her shoulders, bringing her in against my chest, my right hand stroking her hair. “You’re not on your own, Ava. I’m right here with you. We’ve got this.”AVAI’d love to know how exactly just being close to Callum can calm me down like that, but for now, it’s just a welcome mystery.I buried my f
Bullied By My Four Mates Chapter 46: The Weakest Link
NOAHI’m not too ‘macho’ to pretend that I didn’t freak out as soon as I heard that my twin could be in danger. It was common knowledge that he was the most sceptical out of our little five-way; he had always been the jealous sort.I shifted and sprinted out of the house towards the treehouse as soon as I got the message from Ava and Callum. I knew he wasn’t home with me, and that was the place that he would go if he wanted to be alone.Fortunately, he was there when I got there.“Theo, what’s going on, man?” I asked, voice low, calm.“I can’t do this, Noah,” he replied, his voice full of pain. “I can’t share her.”My heart broke for both Theo and Ava as he spoke. She had four fated mates, she’d never feel complete without Theo, and he’d never feel complete without her. “Theo… we can talk about this later, I promise, but for now, I need to get you to safety.”He looked up at me, eyes wide. “Why am I not safe?”I paused for a moment, wondering how honest I should be. I sighed. Honesty
