“Well,” Paisley muses out loud, “she hates kids. She hates getting dirty and poor people… I think if we’re just loud and messy and all over her…”

“She’ll get really mad.” Ryder surmises, finishing her thought.”

“Exactly.” Paisley agrees, “and we just have to be sure Daddy is there when she does.”

“But how can we make sure we’ll all be together again?” Parker asks, “Mommy clearly doesn’ wanna be around Daddy.”

“If you can handle Mommy,” Paisley suggests. “I can handle Daddy.”

“We can do this.” Riley agrees. “We just have to work together. Deal?”

All four pups glance at one another before nodding in agreement. “Deal.”

“You can’t hide forever, Janey.” Linda informs me matter-of-factly, her voice sounding distant over the phone.

“Not forever.” I agree, speaking quietly into the receiver and hoping the pups are too distracted to pay attention. “just until he’s gone.”

“Yeah, well the doctor said he could be asleep a couple of days - it’s really hard t

    I return my gaze to Elise, a sense of triumph building in my chest. Mommy. Just as I thought. Clearly these aren’t Linda’s pups after all. If Elise realizes that her daughter has just revealed her deception, she doesn’t show it. She doesn’t even look at me because her full attention is on her pup. She crosses the kitchen and scoops up the little girl, humming sympathetically. “Poor baby, you’ve had too much excitement this week.” The child peeks over at me with wide eyes, cuddling closer to her mother but also unflinchingly curious. “Hello there, little one.” I greet her warmly, instinctively stepping closer. “What’s your name?” Elise’s arms tighten on the girl when I move closer, betraying her maternal instincts even further. “I’m Riley.” The pup yawns, resting her cheek on Jane’s shoulder and watching me intently. “I’m sorry if your Mommy and I woke you, Riley.” I state honestly, desperately wanting to reach out to the sleepy girl, who reminds me

    Jane “Jane!” Ethan’s deep bass echoes in my ears, sending shivers down my spine and making my knees shake. At first I tell myself I only imagined it, but then the palpable silence hanging between us becomes too heavy to deny. I stop in my tracks, trying to act nonchalant. “Who is Jane?” I ask, not bothering to turn around. “You’re really going to keep playing this game?” He demands, sounding as angry as I’ve ever heard him. “I’m sure I don’t know what you’re talking about.” I insist, digging in my heels. “Like you don’t know what happened last night?” Ethan drawls, his footsteps drawing nearer. “I’ve already told you, you fell.” I remind him, determined to stick to my story at all costs. The last thing I need is for him to remember I attacked him. I hadn’t even thought about what I was doing in the moment. It was only after, when I saw his blood, that I truly processed what I’d done: I attacked the Alpha. Yes he kissed me without asking, but I let him. I was kissing him back ever

    Jane “Of course not.” I deny, “But I am saying that you could use a few good bonks on the head if you still think this is appropriate.” Ethan sidles closer, towering over me and adopting a knowing leer. He looks so dangerous in this moment that every omega instinct I possess is begging me to give in. Luckily Linda seems to sense my weak resolve. “Okay.” My friend interrupts, “Why don’t we all go to bed before we say anything we regret, and we can pick this up in the morning.” Staring at Ethan, I realize I don’t want to stop fighting. It’s clear he doesn’t either, we’re having too much fun. At the same time, I know every moment we keep this up is a threat to me. I need to be rid of Ethan, sooner rather than later. “Agreed.” I say, turning towards the bedroom. Ethan never agrees with us, but I feel his eyes on me until I shut the door at my back. I don’t need him to tell me to understand: This is only the beginning. Ethan The doctor arrives first thing in the morning, after Jane h

    Ethan For all my bluster, my head truly was aching after settling the ordeal with Eve and the reporter. Jane was so thankful I’d stepped in that she didn’t even complain when I said I was going to lie down for a bit, though I could still hear her speaking in a low voice with Linda after I closed the door. “What happened?” Jane whispered. “It’s like he said,” Linda answered, “The doctor said it would be best if he remained here to rest a few days. He said something about there being too much temptation to take care of pack business at the penthouse, he didn’t trust Ethan to actually rest if he went home.” “That’s nonsense.” Jane hissed. “Ethan must have ordered the doctor to say that.” “Whether he did or didn’t doesn’t really matter.” Linda argued in a hushed tone. “He’s the Alpha. We can’t refute his orders or the doctor’s. We’ve just got to make our peace with it.” “I can’t have him here with the kids.” Jane murmured nervously. “Maybe we should see if we can move into the new ap

    Jane As my pups race across the room and pounce on me, I can help but laugh as I collapse beneath them. Wrestling and ticking the three wriggling bodies, they give as good as they get, poking my sides and making me squirm wildly on the tiles. A warm, deep chuckle that sends a very different kind of warmth through my body sounds above us, and the next thing I know Ethan is bending down to pluck me from the ground, tossing me over his shoulder and relocating me to the living room. Though he sets me on my feet when we get there, the feel of his powerful hands on my body makes my knees feel weak, and I have to steady myself with a hand on his arm when I land. The kids have followed of course and are now eyeing the pair of us with paws outstretched in threat. They pounce within moments, and before I know it all five of us are racing around the apartment laughing and playing, making my heart swell even larger in my chest. It feels as if it will burst out of me at any moment, and my wolf

    Jane Looking down at Paisley’s sweet face, I know I can’t deny her anything. “Of course I’ll come.” I promise, avoiding Ethan’s gaze. “Yay!” Paisley exclaims happily, looking back and forth between Ethan and I. Something seems to strike her then, and her little nose crinkles in confusion and concern. “Wait, what ‘bout your game?” Ethan’s gaze zeroes in on me. I don’t need to look at him to know, I can feel the weight of his eyes on me like a pair of hundred pound weights. I should have foreseen this, I should have remembered the story I told the little girl about the hide and seek game. Now she’ll think I can’t ever be her mother because Ethan clearly found me. Panic bubbles up inside me, I don’t know how to answer her and keep up my lie for Ethan at the same time. “We put it on pause.” Ethan supplies, surprising me. “For you.” I add gently, “because of your surgery.” “Oh.” Paisley chirps, accepting our answer without further question. “Good.” She smiles toothily up at me. “I’m g

    3rd Person Ryder, Parker and Riley kneeled in the back of the swan shaped boat carrying them down the lazy river winding through the dark tunnel, giggling in excitement as they spied on Ethan and Jane. Despite the pitch black surrounding them, their sharp wolf eyes could make out their parent’s bodies through the gloom, and saw that Ethan was about to kiss Jane. This is exactly the opportunity they’d been waiting for. “Riley, you’re a genius.” Parker whispered. “Thank you.” His sister smiled widely. She didn’t know why these silly rides existed, but she was certainly glad they did. It was so romantic, with the cozy boats and soft love songs blaring through the overhead speakers. At this very moment some pop star was singing about how she’d died every day waiting for her lover, and the pup couldn’t help but think Mommy had been waiting a very long time for their Daddy - at least as long as they’d been alive, if not longer! Unfortunately Ethan and Jane’s lips had barely brushed toget

His eyes clenched shut as if he was in pain when the person on the other end of the line spoke, and the next thing I knew he was urgently telling me we had to go.“What’s wrong?” I ask, leaping to my feet.“It’s Paisley.” He answers, his voice like gravel.The room begins to spin as dread ties my stomach into knots, “Is she okay?” I gasp, reaching for the counter to suddenly swaying body.“They’ve rushed her into emergency surgery.” Ethan explains, moving for the door. “I don’t know any details yet.”Glancing helplessly at Linda, I find my friend already pushing my purse into my hands, “Go, I’ll take care of the pups.”“Thank you.” I mouth, following Ethan. “I’ll take you.” I announce, “You shouldn’t drive with a head injury.”He guides me through the door with a hand at my waist and closes it behind us, pulling the keys from my hand, “Of c

    JaneFour Months LaterEthan ushers the pups into my hospital room with a finger pressed to his lips. “Quietly now, Mommy’s very tired.”I’d gone into labor in the early hours of the morning, and the experience couldn’t have been more different than it had been with the quadruplets. Instead of suffering through the first contractions alone and afraid, I’d had my mate by my side, rubbing my back and crooning sympathetically as I gritted my teeth against the pain. After a few hours of pacing and fruitlessly trying to find a comfortable position, my water broke and we left for the hospital, leaving the pups with a sitter.I made it through fifteen hours of labor before caving and asking for an epidural, taking Ethan’s encouragement to save my strength for pushing when the time came. He never left my side the entire time, only stepping out of the room a couple of times to check in on the pups at my request. I couldn’t have asked for a better birthing partner – he lavished me with praise a

    JaneWhen Ethan and I arrive back at the penthouse we find Devon and Nina sitting on the sofa while the pups zoom around the living room in front of them. Devon has an arm slung over Nina’s shoulder, which surprises me, but I can’t focus on them because the moment we walk through the door four little bodies come hurtling at our legs. “Mommy! Daddy!” The pups cry excitedly.Parker is the tallest and fastest, so he reaches us first, leaping up into Ethan’s waiting arms while I intercept Riley, whose small size lets her bound weightlessly across the room. “Hello my love puddles.” I greet them happily, kneeling so I can also hug Ryder, while Ethan effortlessly scoops up Paisley, even though his arms are already full with her brother. “What have you been up to? Were you good for Devon and Nina?” I ask, marveling at Ethan’s strength despite his recent recovery.“We were sooo good.” Riley confirms. “Nina was sad so we cuddled her.”“And then Devon told us we could get ice cream if we promi

    JaneWhen I open my eyes, Ethan and I are still in the thermal pool. I can feel the water lapping and bubbling around me, but he’s no longer inside me, and when I look up it’s to find his dark gaze watching me intently. Gradually I realize he’s moved to the shallow end of the spring so he can sit on the submerged ledge and hold me in his lap. He rests one hand on my round belly, and our baby flutters inside me as if the tiny bean knows its father is near.“How long was I out?” I inquire softly, stretching and reveling in the delicious ache of my muscles. I’m filled with the lazy contentment of a well-loved mate, utterly drugged with pleasure that is only deepened by the sting of my claiming mark. I can feel the evidence of Ethan’s dominance in the swollen flesh between my legs, the bite marks on my breasts and faint bruises on my back and thighs. And right now I can’t imagine anything better than this… exc

    3rd PersonNina’s heart sunk as she watched Ethan and Jane race out the door as their wolves, and she stepped forward to close the door out of mere reflex. When the panel clicked shut she found herself staring blankly at the dark wood, momentarily frozen in time. She couldn’t think, she couldn’t feel, she could only stand there and exist as this latest slight reverberated through her body.Only the sound of a small voice saying her name woke her from her miserable reverie, “Nina?”Slowly, as if in a trance, she turned. Blinking, her expression detached, she saw the pups watching her. Tiny feet padded over the floor in a miniature stampede, and then the four children were gathered around her, looking up at her with wrinkled brows. “Hmm?” She finally responded, unsure if they’d asked her a question or simply stopped at her name.“Are you okay?” Paisley inquired softly, genuine concern in h

    Jane“Not want you?” Ethan snarls furiously, seeming angrier about that suggestion than my words about Devon. “Not want you? That has never been the problem!”His hands are so fierce on my body, and I can see a wild sort of desperation in his handsome features. His eyes are glowing and his fangs extended – I know his wolf is right on the edge.“Then show me.” I demand. Sliding my hand down between our flush bodies. “Let me feel your desire, Ethan.”“Why are you doing this?” He groans, burying his head in my neck.“Because you’re punishing yourself for something that isn’t your fault.” I murmur in reply, my lips brushing against his ear as I speak. “And it’s gone on long enough.”“But it is my fault, Janey. Everything I do backfires, every time I try to do the right thing for you, I fuck up.” He confesses, sounding so vulnerable I ache.“Then maybe you should stop trying to figure out the answer for me, and start working with me.

Unsurprisingly, she was less than amused to learn I decided to allow Jane and the pups to stay with us – though in truth it hadn’t been much of a choice. My mischievous mate forced me between a rock and a hard place, and I wasn’t about to drag her out of the penthouse kicking and screaming.“I can’t just throw them out.&

After all, I want to encourage their ambition in whatever they do… even if it is taking over the world.Regardless of the burgeoning tricksters under my roof, everything else has gone fairly smoothly.

But one day you’ll see that I’m right.” His thumb brushes a stray tear from my cheek. “You were so much better off without me.
