Third Person's POV Ethan lays on his side, sandwiched between his mates. His arms and legs wrap around Claudius as Claudius lays on his side facing him. Claudius watches Ethan sleep as he trails his fingers along his face. Hughes presses a kiss to the top of Ethan's head as he lays with his chest against Ethan's back. Hughes reaches up and tucks Claudius' hair behind his ear, before running his fingers along his jaw. Claudius' eyes moved from Ethan's face, to his Alpha's eyes. "He's okay, love." "I know. I just, it scared me. It was so hard to see him in pain like that." Claudius looks down sadly before looking at the Alpha again as Hughes begins speaking. "I know. It was hard for me too." Hughes moved his hand higher, cupping Claudius' cheek. "But you looked okay. I was freaking out, and you were so calm." Claudius' eyes searched the Alpha's for answers. "I looked okay, but on the inside, it hurt. My job is to hide how affected I am when it comes to you two. My job is to loo
Third Person's POV The Alpha has barely put his mates down after having sex. He feels so protective and feels an extreme need to care for them in any way he can. Ethan would normally protest being carried by the Alpha. Claudius is sure of this, but Ethan simply smiles as he nuzzles the Alpha's neck, loving the way he smells. The Alpha's thumbs caress his mates as he walks down the last flight of stairs. Claudius' arms wrap around both of his mates, and he smiles as he presses his nose against the Alpha's neck while looking at Ethan, smiling. Hughes was on cloud nine as he walked down the stairs. He never thought, or imagined it would ever feel like this... To carry his mates. To have someone love how he smells. But not just one, two! And not just loving the way he smells, it was so much more. Feeling their noses against his skin, tickling and sniffing him. Feeling their arms wrapped around him, almost encasing him in their warmth, their scent, and everything they are. So much so
James' POV It's been three days, and I'm surprised at how mild each episode has been for Sawyer. He hasn't had nearly as many as I did, and I haven't yet seen an episode last more than 15 minutes, which is a miracle. I had a few during the daytime, but they were mild. For some reason, it's the nighttime episodes that came on with a vengeance. Those were the ones that made it feel like you were dying. It felt like my soul was being torn apart each time, making me relive it all over again. My episodes ranged anywhere from 30 minutes, to an hour, with excruciating pain. But thankfully Sawyer's doesn't seem to be as painful. But it's a pain that I still can't bear to see him go through. There have been so many times I wanted to pull my shirt off and throw the gloves on the floor so I could hold him against my skin, and let him feel it. I know the moment he feels it, it'll take away his pain. But I know he still needs to mourn, and I'm afraid it's too soon for him. I'm afraid of th
Third Person's POV James couldn't pull his clothes on fast enough. He was eager to allow Sawyer to smell him for the first time. He hopes Sawyer likes the way he smells because he definitely loves the way Sawyer smells. His scent is so sweet, with a hint of cinnamon. Just the thought of his wonderful scent makes James' eyes close, and he bites his lip. A smile spreads across James' face, 'He didn't reject me!' With that last thought, James quickly leaves the bathroom. The door abruptly opened and caused Sawyer to squeak as he jumped. He quickly placed his hand over his chest to still his racing heart. James came to an abrupt stop, and Sawyer's lips parted as his eyes drank his new mate in. James stood there in a pair of khaki cargo pants, with a light green button-down shirt wide open, exposing his stomach and chest. Sawyer's mouth instantly began to water and he prayed he wasn't drooling. It's no secret James was a very attractive person. But Sawyer wasn't able to see just how
Third Person's POV Ethan tossed and turned throughout the night. He had a difficult time regulating his body temperature. At one point Hughes became concerned how hot Ethan was. He began to wonder if maybe his and Claudius' bodies were making Ethan hotter, so the Alpha carefully laid Ethan in between them. However, it didn't last long. Not even a minute later, Ethan whimpered and his face began searching for his Alpha. As soon as Ethan's face found Hughes, he crawled on top of him and buried his face back in his neck. The Alpha smiled when a few minutes later, he was right back in the same position, with Claudius tucked under his arm and the Delta's legs draped over his body with his arms wrapped around Ethan. The Alpha could almost hear a sigh of content slip past his omega's lips. Hughes kept a watchful eye on Ethan throughout the night, while trying to ignore a certain problem down below. At least it's not that bad since Ethan is not in heat. But he can still feel his Alpha wo
Third Person's POV Ethan propped himself onto his elbow. He reached back and began running his fingers through Claudius' hair as he slowly stopped crying. "Why is there so much pressure inside of me? I mean, besides the obvious. It feels like there's much more pressure than before." "That's my knot, little mate. Dominant males knot their mate when they're in heat. Claudius didn't knot you because you're not in heat. I however am an Alpha, and I'm in rut which is why I was able to knot you. Usually, you would be in heat when I'm in rut. The scent of your heat would cause my rut to peek. During your heat is when you're able to get pregnant. My rut allows me to knot you and lock us in place. It's to help ensure you get pregnant." "Wait, but you knotted me! Am I going to get pregnant?" Ethan's eyes were wide. The Alpha could see he was scared and Hughes chuckled as he ran the back of his fingers along Ethan's cheek. "No, my little mate. You're not in heat, therefore your cloacal fla
Third Person's POV "What's wrong, kitten?" Colton looked at Timothy concerned. "M-my stomach... It hurts! I-it must have been the food." Timothy said as he held his stomach. It has happened a few times in the past... Eating something and it making him sick. There were times he would go a long time without anything to eat. He was so hungry, and his stomach hurt incredibly bad. A few times he found a dead animal and he couldn't help himself, he ate it... Unfortunately, it made him very sick. His stomach hurt so bad. That has to be what this is! It's the only thing that makes sense. He just ate food, and now his stomach hurts. Timothy whimpered as he held his stomach and curled forward. Colton raised an eyebrow at his words, then became concerned again when his little mate whimpered. Colton adjusted Timothy and laid him down next to him. Colton's eyes raked over his little kitten's face and quickly realized what was going on... His skin is turning pink right before his eyes. Sw
Third Person's POV Hughes leans against the column on the front porch and watches his little mate nervously pace back and forth. Claudius pushes off the other column and walks down the stairs as Ethan is walking back toward them. Claudius reaches out, stopping Ethan and pulling him into his arms. "Relax hun. Everyone knows they can't shift anywhere near the pack house, or in sight of it. There's no way he's going to know you're a werewolf unless you tell him." Claudius caressed Ethan's cheek, hoping that would help calm him down. "What about this?" Ethan points to each side of his neck, and Claudius' eyes land on his mark before looking at Hughes' mark. Claudius smiles as he reaches up and touches his mark. A shiver runs down Ethan's spine, and he bites his lip, trying to suppress a moan. Claudius sees Ethan biting his lip and moves his hand away from his mark. His hand wraps around Ethan, pulling him closer before pressing a kiss to his lips. "He'll never know what they are. J
