Heather needed to delay her announcement to Rose about her father for quite a few months. While Mikey and Jay worked in their spare time to find Heather’s other father and Rose’s father. The two were completely different investigations, and if anything, Heather’s other father was easier to find.Mikey insisted on looking for her other father in computer records, in case he now lived a more normal life outside of any medical facilities. Jobs, pack memberships, driver’s license registries, and all that. But nothing came up, and it had Heather worrying about what they’d find when they located him.“Just because we don’t see him in any voter registration lists or possessing a license, Heather means nothing. Many shifters don’t have their driver’s licenses. It means nothing bad. What we don’t want to see is his name on any of the lists of the dead for any year from when he left until now. We want to avoid any list of matings or marriages with his name listed in it.Bill Rivers or William E
Mikey didn’t understand why, but when he made the call, the next morning to the rehab facility, it became clear that this would be the most difficult thing he’d ever done. All because he didn’t want Heather’s hopes up to be dashed because as far as Mikey could tell there were so many possible negative end results than positive ones. What if Bill had died? Or had mentally checked out? Physically unable to function as he had. Move on with his life and someone else? Or could he have been too emotionally scarred to open himself up to them and the memory of their rejection? Add to this that Mikey and Jay both felt personally invested in this. Their emotions ran high with how they could feel and relate to Bill. Jay’d clung to Mikey each night they’d been here. He silently needed Mikey to remind him that their triad wasn’t in any danger of collapsing like Heather’s parents’ had. Mikey loved them both physically and emotionally. He wouldn’t let anyone come between
Mikey had Jay call Rose’s father’s pack. They wanted more information if they will speak about it at all. Jay wasn’t sure how to say what Mikey wanted him to say, and became hesitant. “Fine. You man my phone in case the doctor calls while I’m trying to get the information on the pack. Gad, you’d think you never spoke to an alpha in your life.” Mikey loved Jay, but he wasn’t dominate in most things outside of the bedroom. It worked for them, though, most of the time. “Good. When we’re done, I’ll blow you as a thank you for not making me do this.” That got Mikey’s attention. Jay knew how to blow his mind when he sucked his cock. Now he had to do this with a hard on in his pants. “You said that just to screw with me, didn’t you?” “Oh, I’ll do it, but you’ll have to wait for it. But the longer it takes to get this over with, the longer it will be until I’m sucking you dry, love.” Jay’s eyes went to the tent forming in Mikey’s pants. “Fine, but rem
Mikey sent the photos and left his number so that the Alpha could decide on what he would do about this situation. That was the best Mikey could do. This wasn’t his problem to decide on. All he could do was think of everyone’s feelings about the matter as he followed the information. He’d barely had a moment to fill Jay in on the news and no time to discuss what that could mean for them. When Jay jumped out of his skin when Mikey’s phone rang in his hand. Mikey snatched it from Jay before he could accidentally drop it. “Go grab us something to eat. I’ll try to work my magic on this doctor.” Jay frowned. He wanted to be there for the talk. He didn’t want to hear about it second or third hand. “You suck love.” But he was hungry, and they’d not eaten today before they started all of this. So, Jay left, slamming the motel room door behind him in a huff. Mikey would make it up to him. But Mikey didn’t want to have to deal with his disappointment if this w
“Yes, yes. I see. I can contact my clients right away and set something up with them.” Mikey’s grin broadened as he spoke sporadically between listening to the doctor. “He may have to go to them if he can. She’s not been cleared to leave the healing centre and it may be a while yet.” Again, he listened. “I’ll get right on it. Thank you and have a nice day. I’ll call and I’ll arrange a time and date for their first meeting.” He disconnected the call and his smile lit up the room with how excited he’d become with the outcome of that call. “He wants to meet with them and talk. Bill also wants to meet Heather and us. It’s looking good for this.” “I can’t wait to see Heather’s face and Mae will be over the moon about having both her mates. You know, I don’t think I could have chosen between you and Heather. I’d have felt like there was someone missing in my life all the time.” Jay could help with it. This was the best outcome they could have received and now it just kept gett
Mikey and Jay finally finished up with their efforts and, with the results in hand, returned to the pack. Excited to tell everyone the news of what they’d found and achieved.When they got back to the healing center, Heather was there with her parents and all three faces looked hopefully toward the two wolves. Mikey had to admit, he felt like he was a conquering hero coming back from the war with a chest full of medals.Jay looked pretty much how Mikey felt, so he figured Jay felt just as successful as he did.Heather stood up from the chair she sat in and came forward to greet them. Once she was done hugging them and grabbing a kiss from each, her manner sobered. “So… What happened? What did you find out about my other father?”“First, we found him. Second, no, he didn’t find a second chance mate. Third, he is living and working at the rehabilitation facility. Fourth, he wants to meet with all of you to find out if there’s a future with you. Fifth, he wants me to call him with a date
The fact that Bill arranged a ride to the healing centre the very next day, much too many people’s surprise. Mikey and Heather both worried he’d hold a grudge against Michael for competing with him and winning Mae. But when Bill realized Mae had a change of heart about accepting the rejection of their triad relationship. She’d been kidnapped and unable to communicate with anyone. That this was all complicated by external circumstances they couldn’t have controlled. Bill only wanted to know if it was too late for them to try again. Michael, on the other hand, crumbled at the sight of his other mate, leaving everyone stunned. He clung to Bill once he finished stating his interest in exploring the possibility of them exploring their relationship and bond. Mae’s healer had several questions and the three later sat down with the healer. He wanted to know several things. There were tests he wanted to perform. But he needed samples from all three. There was new research on the
Amber hadn’t learned a single lesson about what Heath wanted in life and she didn’t seem to care that Heath wasn’t happy.No, Heath knew he just wasn’t unhappy. He was miserable. Was this the fate he was dealt or was it entirely a mistake? Did he want a mate so badly that he took the first she-wolf that might be compatible? Was she even compatible? Heath didn’t know.With everyone around him so busy with all the changes and the work to fix things. It was difficult for him to find anyone to be a sane and good sounding board for him.That and he was embarrassed to mention how badly it was going between them. How did fate give him someone so controlling and selfish? She’s jealous of everything her friends have in their mates. Did she settle for him to feel like she was part of the group? Heath hated to think that way, but it was clear now that was what was happening, and he was a little sad.Deep down, he wanted it to work out, and they’d live a charmed life. But nothing seemed right for
