~Cadence’s Point of View~

“Mom, dad … this is our mate, Cadence Mattison,” Lenox said, smiling brightly.

I took in the pair, I could certainly see the allure as well as the trepidation. They both had an aura about themselves, an air of … better. An air of … arrogance. 

The mom wasn’t too tall, easily a couple inches shorter than me. Then again the twins were probably only about six feet even. She was pretty but I would hardly call her gorgeous. She had shoulder length curled brown hair and brown eyes, no make-up and no jewelry. Yet her casual sundress and sandals were very high end, certainly designer. 

My eyes quickly moved to the father, who was the very stere

    ~Cadence’s Point of View~ I didn’t trust the twins for a single, solitary second. I made them drive in front of me the whole way back to school, convinced they would somehow go back to my pack. They’d do something ridiculous. Then they insisted one of them ride with me, and hell no was that gonna happen! *Well they’d certainly leave us if they heard you car singing,* my wolf said, shaking her head. “I happen to love singing in the car and if you don’t like it I simply don’t care. You didn’t grow up with an appreciation of the finer things in life,” I said, wiggling my head around. *Finer things? Oh, oh really? You are going to try and convince me that ‘to the window, to the wall’ shit is real music,* she sai

    ~Lenox’s Point of View~ I absolutely refused to believe that Cade’s little attitude wasn’t on purpose. I knew this whole back and forth turned her on just like it did for us. If she wanted to play hard to want, I was absolutely going to play her game. But she needs to understand, I don’t fight fair. Not when it comes to my mate at any rate. I wasn’t getting her another fucking cookie though. She owed me that after the stupid way she acted in front of our parents. Yeah we might have sprung the entire thing on her with no warning, but it’s no excuse. Especially not when literally everyone else in her family couldn’t have been happier and more welcoming. I’m not just going to sit back and let her keep whatever opinion she’s decided to have about us. I want to show her who we are, who our family is and what we do. She thinks we’re some pretentious assholes, but that’s just what she’s decided to believe. “Valerie, nice to see you. Shoot me an email to my school address with the details

    ~Cadence’s Point of View~ I just couldn’t shake the feeling that I couldn’t trust the twins worth a shit. They just seemed far too smug and sure of themselves and it got under my skin more than anything ever had. Why the hell did I agree to go watch this neanderthal bullshit? I could be having a nap! Brushing my hair, hell … flossing would be more productive! If I had to endure this hell I wasn’t doing it alone, that’s for certain. KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK I sighed and chugged the rest of a bottle of water, ready to get this over with. I really had no intentions of adding to their story, they already wrote the article so I wasn’t about to do more work than necessary. I knew good and well Alec would likely tweak it to his liking just so he could add his name somewhere. I fixed my messy hair and marched to the door, then threw it open to see Hailey. She was wearing jeans shorts that were dangerously short and a tank top that was beyond paper thin with NO bra. Ohh yeah, just the distracti

    ~Cadence’s Point of View~ “You sure,” Hailey said, in a low whisper, as she tucked a loose piece of hair behind my ear. I tingled all over at her touch, and damn she still smelled so good! I felt two pairs of eyes on me and even though they were in the middle of the field I felt their heat. I felt their irritation. “Yeah I think I’ll … take your advice,” I said, awkwardly and not knowing what to do with my hands. “All right go get ‘em girl,” she said, and turned to run off. I’d be lying if I said I didn’t watch her lucious ass that was barely contained in those little shorts… “Hey 27, got a minute,” she yelled. I drew a deep breath and looked up to see the twins staring at me. There were easily two dozen pigskin tramps out here, and I hadn’t seen them look at a single one. It almost made me feel … made me feel like… *Seen, I feel seen. Appreciated,* Fanny said, swooning. Damn, damn it all! Is that what that is? I slowly walked toward them, and they kept their stares the e

    ~Weston’s Point of View~ Could this female possibly be any more beautiful? Any more sexy? Why did it turn me on to watch my brother kissing her, shouldn’t I have been jealous? Wanting to rip his throat out? *Because he makes her happy too,” my wolf said, stating the obvious. I certainly never gave a damn what he did with any other female. But Cade was nothing, nowhere even close to any other female. Whether she knew it or not she looked at us like she wanted to devour us. She looked at us like we could be minutes away from stripping each other and joining our flesh. So why weren’t we?? Lenox and I had never had sex without a condom, that would absolutely only be for our mate. There could never be a risk that we get another pregnant. So now that we’d found her, now that we knew she was ours for life, how could our bodies wait? How could our wolves wait? Well there was an easy answer for our unnecessary sexual frustration. Her mouth and her attitude needed to get out of the way. No

  • Taunting The Twin Alphas   13 - Under, Or Over?

    ~Cadence’s Point of View~ I woke up Monday morning feeling completely out of sorts. I’d had an exhausting conversation with Valerie to get more details of this auction business so that I wouldn’t sound like a blithering idiot courting rich people. I made the calls but only got to speak to two people, one of which was their football coach who was positively giddy that his star players were getting front page action in the paper. He insisted I meet up with him to get his picture with them added to the article and in exchange, I managed to convince him to also invite a few people to the auction. No one pulls the wool over my eyes, I always come out on top. I always … win and get my way. But at the same time it is a give and take, both parties walk away happy. I just had no idea how I could translate that into my personal life. This new reality I had to navigate that said I was about to lose everything I worked tirelessly for all these years. After my first class I went to the library

    ~Cadence’s Point of View~ The guys actually left me alone all day Monday, which was quite a shock. I’d like to say I used the time to solve all of my problems but the more time I spent with myself mulling over all the possible ways this would could blow the fuck up in my face, the worse it got. I stared at my counter in disgust. I’d finished off half a loaf of Italian bread, two pieces of chicken parm and some ziti. I felt sick and about to blow out of my jeans. *And nearly a full bottle of wine,* Fanny scolded. I pulled myself off the barstool and fell onto the couch. *We need to run it off, it’s the only way you’ll feel better. We BOTH need fresh air,* Fanny insisted. “I don’t trist you,” I said, out loud and pointing to the wall. *Cade, come on! Stop being childish! You’re already slurring your words. Nothing some cool air in our hair won’t fix,* she scolded. I sat up and rubbed my face. I did feel like shit and I knew what Fanny was saying was true. I just wasn’t sure she

    ~Cadence’s Point of View~ “Fuck it’s hot in here. Why is the heat on,” I mumbled as I popped open my eyes. Flesh. With a little light brown chest hair mixed in. I gaped at my hand, resting on said chest and scowled. “Reporter wakes up in the middle of her own news story hell, stay tuned for Mother’s Day gift ideas.” I moved slightly and felt an arm fall off my back. Their light snores continued uninterrupted. Shit, how am I going to get them out of here? My eyes rolled around the room and I suddenly realized I was not in MY apartment. Aw fuck me! They took me to THEIR house?? Was I about to be seen doing a walk of SHAME from the green house of testosterone I’d always desperately avoided? AND I HAD NONE OF MY OWN CLOTHES HERE?? Could this be ANY worse?? I closed my eyes and cursed myself. Then I had a brief moment of clarity and rolled my foot around. Still sore but I could walk. No, no no no! I couldn’t let anyone see me leave here, and like this? Seriously my WORST nightma

    ~Epilogue Two~ ~Cadence’s Point of View~ ~One Year Later~ “Andrew! Get that out of your mouth,” I snapped, as I grabbed a giant spicy beef stick from my baby. “Who left this out where he could reach it,” I shouted, to no one in particular. Of course no one paid me any attention. I watched as my little adventurer continued to walk on his wobbly, chubby little legs around the rec room of the packhouse. Various people stopped to coo at him or ruffle his hair. He absolutely had Lenox’s sense of fearless adventure, but Weston’s sweetness. His favorite thing to do was rub people, maybe he had texture issues but I found it endearing. I could lay him next to me at naptime and he’d fall asleep rubbing my arm, those were my favorite moments. Andrew didn’t look a thing like me, he was all Keller … which literally EVERYONE pointed out, EVERY single day. I hoped Emily would fix that seeing as I was the one who did all the baby baking and turned into a human cow. I sighed with awe as I looke

    ~Epilogue One~ ~Brianne’s Point of View~ ~About Five Months Later~ “No, and don’t say anything else I mean it,” Lenox snapped. I made a face and it took all my restraint not to flip him off. Alpha or not, he’s my brother and if I need to flip him off I shall! I rolled my eyes as he stormed off. Tomorrow was a full moon, the second to last before my birthday. They usually took Chase away from me two days before and two days after the full moon. Last month I could hear his screams and cries carry in the wind all the way from the jail and it broke me. We just can’t go on like this. All I do is pray to the goddess that my wolf will come early but so far nothing. Cade is also due with her baby any day now, she’s having a little boy. My brothers were a bit disappointed she wasn’t having twins but of course the pigs they are … they just turned into being excited about trying again. I was desperate to see Chase but ever since coming clean to the pack it’s been impossible to sneak a lot

  • Taunting The Twin Alphas   44 - Confessions

    ~Chase’s Point of View~ ~About Seven Months Later~ *Fuck it’s cold out here,* I whined to my wolf, wishing I had worn a real coat. Even shifters get cold, in their human form. It didn’t really matter, we’d all be on a run soon I just had to suck it up. *Won’t be long,* he just said, sitting anxiously. The full moon was in two nights, and last month was the first time I had to restrain my wolf, it was awful and I knew he’d only get more aggressive. Thankfully since we rarely use our jail no one noticed me in there. Talking to Gray and keeping him calm on my own wasn’t working anymore even though he understood, our human rules didn’t mean shit to him. A pup has to have their shift, their human side and their wolf side both have to agree to pick their mate. Brianne and I decided we couldn’t put off telling her brothers any longer. I’d need help with Gray anyhow, he’d be more than I could handle. Admitting I couldn’t protect my mate was a damn hard pill to swallow. The fact that I was

  • Taunting The Twin Alphas   43 - Forever Home

    ~Cadence’s Point of View~ I pulled an all nighter to finish my last paper as a college student. I felt groggy and annoyed, having a few beers and sleeping for two days sounded perfect. But since my mates were also done with their finals week, all they wanted to do was show me our house. Our house. The thought made a smile creep across my face as I grabbed the tape and sealed up another box. I couldn’t believe how amazing Weston’s ideas were, and how much style sense Lenox actually had. If the house looked as good in person as it did on Weston’s app it would be freaking awesome. Of course right now they were just framing, it would still be a couple weeks until we could move in, which was a bit unnerving. We hadn’t really discussed living arrangements in the meantime. Certainly a newly mated couple didn’t want to live with parental figures under the same roof. I jerked my neck as my apartment door opened, I couldn’t believe I hadn’t locked it. Although most of the student body was a

  • Taunting The Twin Alphas   42 - Worth The Wait

    ~Brianne’s Point of View~ I told Chase to get me a copy of the university paper within an hour of it getting released. I surmised that he sent someone, because even though it was something for me he still deemed it beneath him. It was so hot when he delegated authority though, and he would be Beta very … very soon. Even if I had to smack Cade around a bit so she’d get it together. Chase needed this so bad and since we couldn’t mate yet, it was the perfect distraction to get him through the next year. Sure enough a guy barely a year older than me approached me in the rec room a while later. I snatched the paper from him with a smile and ran by the kitchen, scooping up a giant cinnamon bun and fork on my way to my bedroom then shut the door. Weston had called me last night to dish the dirt and I barely slept. I was beside myself with anticipation. I couldn’t imagine how they felt. I was going to call them after I read it. I unrolled it to see the headline, huge and in bold: WORTH T

    ~Cadence’s Point of View~ I handed in my second exam of the day and walked with a pep in my step. I knew I had aced both tests, without a doubt and was damn grateful I had such a good memory. Especially since I hadn’t studied at all. I glanced at my phone … about two hours until Alec released the graduation edition of the school paper. Tomorrow the Howler would have their own article, and then … I just wasn’t sure. I also hadn’t yet heard how it went when Gertrude was locked out of her office this morning, I should have gotten someone to film it. Apparently Alec found all kinds of shit on her computer, she was also stealing from petty cash, getting unauthorized lunches and charging them to the department. I mean … is anyone even honest these days? Crazy! Nadine in the registrar’s office came through with flying colors and in a way that no one would ever know it was her … or me that took down Stacey. Turns out the little twat was awfully busy, finding lucrative ways to make extra c

    ~Weston’s Point of View~ “I can’t wait to see what we have,” I said, as I lazily ran a finger over my mate’s soft back. She was groggy but we all were. We woke up sometime around three am and went at it again, this time I had quite a solo bout with Cade, and even half asleep it was un-fucking-believable. I knew without a doubt she was made for me, I already craved her. “Hmm? Have for what? Breakfast? Are you cooking, I’m beyond famished, I think I lost ten pounds last night,” she said, barely holding her head up. “Have for a pup, silly girl. We’ll see if all the wives tales about being mated to twins are true. There are three sets of twins in our family that share a mate but only one had their first born as twins,” I said, licking my lips. She abruptly sat up, gathering the sheet and covering herself. She gave a dry laugh and wandered to the bathroom without a word. “Shit dude, could have given it a while didn’t have to bring it up day one,” Lenox said, getting up. I rubbed my

    ~Cadence’s Point of View~ I certainly had a preconceived notion of what to expect from Lenox in bed, especially based on his little hot as sin performance last night. But none of that was happening. Maybe he was being gentle because it was our first time, maybe because they would mark me tonight. We were all more than aware that no one here was a perfect little virgin. Either way, he was showing me how he felt. Showing me so much of himself without speaking a single word. Completely unlike him, but my body was returning it. Even with the more tender nature it was clear he was still in control. He was setting the pace, he was moving my body how he wanted. And getting from it … what he wanted. There was no dirty talk once Lenox was inside me, we certainly didn’t need it. It was all overwhelming enough on its own. Weston was right by side, giving me kisses here and there, even holding my hand. But he was letting Lenox and I truly have this moment. Lenox kissed me deep as he rocked

    ~Cadence’s Point of View~ I sighed with complete exhaustion as Chase led Fanny up the path to the Keller’s house. I was so damn exhausted all I wanted was a bed, but even a couch would do. However, I knew without a shadow of a doubt the guys only had one thing on their minds. The sex deprieved part of my brain was all in, ready for whatever was about to go down. The realistic part said we should do this tomorrow. I still couldn’t even wrap my brain around the last twenty-four hours, that literally all this crap happened in the span of a day. As we walked Fanny caught the scent of the twins and sped up, beyond desperate to see them while she was shifted. I could hardly begrudge her that. At that point the house came into view and Chase slowed down. Fanny absolutely had the time of her life tonight, made a ton of new friends and had no problems whatsoever fitting in. But for wolves, it’s pretty damn easy. What’s there to fight over, squirrells? *Hey! I don’t demean your precious li
