Chapter 80

“I don’t think she heard a word you said, brother.” Alec chuckled; his dark eyes framed by onyx lashes. Kade halted his assault on my neck, and even chuckled at the frustrated groan that left my lips. If onlywe never had to leave this place. I’d dedicate my days learning everything I could about Alec andKade; the things they love and fear, their mannerisms and private thoughts. Our nights would be spentby learning each other physically. Life, however, never stopped moving for anyone. “Mm, I don’t like the sound of that.” I muttered, my toes grazing the smooth surface of the pool as Ifloated, trying to keep my head above the water. I wrapped my arms around Alec’s neck, and felt Kademove up behind me. “I think we should just go back to what we were doing. Now that, I’m sure wouldend amazingly.” “Not to worry, we’ll get back to that after our conversation.” Alec smirked down at me, tapping the tip ofmy nose with a damp finger. As fast as his smirk had appeared, it vanished even faster. I swallowedthickly, hating when the twins grew serious. It seemed there was far too much to be serious aboutlately. “We’ve waited quite a bit to have this conversation.” “The last thing we want to do is rush you, and this is not how we wanted it to happen, but there arecertain things that must be done before going to the High Table meeting.” Kade murmured from behindme, his hands settling on my waist. His strong grip kept me from bobbing on my toes, and kept myhead firmly planted above the watery surface. “Believe us, we hate being forced into things. Youdeserve all of the time in the world to figure out what you want. This world is still so new to you, andyou need to know the full extent of what is expected.”

“Having s*x is only the first part of completing the mate-bond. Our scents merge and basically let allunmated wolves know that we’re taken.” Alec continued where his brother left off, just another tidbit ofproof that they were often one person separated into two. “Marking, that’s the final piece. Typically,there’s only two mates in question, so things will be a bit different this time.” “Marking? Tori mentioned something about that.” I replied thoughtfully. “What is it exactly?” I hadn’t asked Tori to elaborate, and was beginning to regret it. The twins were clearly nervous aboutthis topic of conversation, which only made me more determined to put their minds at ease. They knew

I was all in, but my lack of experience in this world frightened them. “The two of us would bite you, typically on your neck. The wound would be non-f***l, and would healinto a mark unique to the individual. You would do the same to us, and leave a mark of your own.”Kade chimed in, running his fingers down the length of my neck. When he got to one spot in particular,my eyes nearly rolled in the back of my head. A rush of molten pleasure trickled down my spine,making my legs grow weak. When he spoke again, his voice was deliciously low and husky. “Thiswould be the spot I’d mark you, where the entire world would see who you belong to.” “I’d have to bite you two as well?” I asked. A part of me was a bit frightened, but my own curiosityoutweighed my fear. I was a werewolf, like it or not. These customs were my own, and I was long pastrunning from myself. “The entire world would know that you’re mine?” “The world already knows were yours, doll.” Alec chuckled, brushing the hair back from my face with agentle hand. “But the answer to your question is yes, they would.” His eyes were unbearably soft, and the white moon-light brought out the cacophony of brown tones inhis eyes. “I don’t see why you were both so worried to tell me.” I spoke with a small laugh, “I want to tie myself toboth of you in every way possible.” “We were worried because there’s more to the marking that we’ve mentioned. It solidifies the bondbetween us, sweetheart. If you were to leave us, or be k****d—well, the two of us wouldn’t live for muchlonger.” Kade murmured softly, a sound that was unusual for him. Kade was the harder of the two, theone who kept his emotions and thoughts well hidden behind dark, endless eyes. Vulnerability wasn’t inhis skillset, but he managed for me. “You would be able to mind-l**k us directly, and not only would youfeel our emotions, but we would feel yours as well.” Now that, that was a little daunting. Then again, I knew without a doubt that my life would never be thesame if the twins weren’t in it. Even though I wouldn’t physically d*e without them right now, a part ofme would wither away if I left them.

In a way, it made perfect sense. They both held a piece of my soul; one I had been missing for so long.Why would I want to continue a life where they weren’t present, forever missing them with every inch ofmy fractured soul? It was a life I wasn’t interested in living. “So, the tides will have turned.” I mustered up a smirk, “Now you’ll be able to tell what I’m feelinginstead of the other way around, and read my thoughts, when I allow it.” “I’m looking forward to seeing what’s going on in that pretty little head of yours.” Alec grinned, runninghis thumb along my lower lip. My tongue darted out and grazed against his finger, and I relished the physical reaction it had on him.His eyes darkened and tracked the movement with a predatory focus, and his emotions changed like aswitch had been flipped. “I want to know what goes on in your head, both of you.” I countered with a smug grin, “All your secretthoughts there for me to see.” “Nothing will be kept secret from you, sweetheart.” Kade chuckled, his fingers dancing down my spinepainfully slow. I could feel him stiffen against my backside, and my b*****s grew heavy from the rush ofpleasure it provided. I pushed back against his length and shivered when he snarled in my ear. “Butcan you handle sharing your secrets with us? All of those d***y thoughts of yours there for us to see.” “That doesn’t sound so bad.” I managed to stammer, my heart a frantic patter in my chest. “We’re getting off topic, brother.” Alec scolded Kade, though there was little animosity in the action. “You’re right, as usual.” Kade grumbled, but made no action to remove his hardened length from mybackside. “We want you to mark us, doll, but not without you knowing fully what you’re getting into.” Aleccontinued, a small smile gracing his strong face. “We will mark you tomorrow night, as there’s a highchance you’ll pass out. It won’t hurt much, but the emotions can be—overwhelming, from what we hear.We assume that two marks will mean twice the sensation.” I once would’ve been afraid of the pain, but that ship had long sailed. I’ve experienced so much pain atthe hands of Frank and Melissa, both physical and emotional. This kind of pain, for the twins, was wellworth it. I would endure so much for them without ever losing the smile on my face.

“For you two, I can handle it.” I told them both softly, letting all my sincerity flow into my voice. “I knowwhat I’m getting into, and I’m already too far in to stop now. My life—it would never be the same withoutthe two of you. I’d never be happy, eternally restless and miserable. I’m tired of being unhappy. If beingwith you two means accepting danger and responsibility, then I’m here for it all.” The relief and happiness that blossomed within them was sweet to the taste, and echoed within myown heart. “Call Thalia forward, sweetheart. She’ll know what to do, and will help you with the rest.” Kade spokesoftly in my ear, nudging me towards Alec. I did as he said and felt Thalia’s immediate response. She was both relieved and absolutely thrilled. Itwas in her nature to mark and mate, to seal the bond and produce pup’s. I wasn’t quite ready for thepup’s yet, but that could come in time. ‘You’ll know where to bite.’ Thalia told me, unable to conceal her own excitement from her voice. ‘Just alittle nip, nothing serious.’ Alec cocked his head to the side as I drifted forward. I placed my hands on his shoulders to keep frombobbing in the water. His neck tasted lightly of chlorine, but mostly of his own spicy scent. His hands gripped my arms tightly, and I could feel his adam’s apple twitch within his throat. My lipstrailed over his smooth skin, seeking out the spot where my mark would sit. Thalia had been right; I knew where to bite without much hassle. The junction where his neck andshoulder met, that was where I wanted my mark. There wasn’t much of a reaction until my teeth finally broke through his skin, and warm blood rushedinto my mouth. The taste of blood, it wasn’t a pleasant taste. This was somewhat different though. Itwas Alec’s blood I were tasting, and it felt as though I had touched a live-wire. Alec gasped and his arms tightened against my body, flattening me to his chest. I could feel it then, thatfinal piece snapping into place. That long missed piece of my soul finally coming home. My ability to feel other’s emotions felt like a one-way connection, like I was eavesdropping onsomething private. This—it was completely different. No longer was I some kind of voyeur, but it wasnow a willing connection. An open channel between Alec and I.

I knew when enough was enough and pulled my elongated teeth from his neck, licking the droplets ofblood from his pale skin. The wound was already beginning to heal, and I could see the start of whatmust’ve been my mark on his skin. Alec was right about the experience being a bit overwhelming. I wasn’t even marked yet and all I couldthink about were my mates. Touching them, tasting them, letting them fill and use me until my throatand private bits were sore. Love, lust, desire, longing, and familiarity. They all battled for dominance in my mind until the urge totouch the twins was near overwhelming. My fingers twitched and my core throbbed, sweat even trickleddown my back. I was spun around so fast that my head spun, and met Kade’s eager eyes. He was excited, and just atad bit impatient. He wanted his turn, he wanted to be claimed and marked by his mate. “So that’s how we make you feel.” Alec chuckled darkly, brushing the hair from my neck and scrapinghis teeth against my soft skin. His voice had changed, turning into something dark and carnal. “Wemake you feel flustered and—overheated. How unbearable that must be.” “Mark me, sweetheart. Let everyone know that we are yours.” Kade murmured as Alec tore the bathingsuit bottoms from my body and shoved a finger into my drenched core. Alec and I, we were both drowning in the connection between us, and I wanted nothing more than tobring Kade into the mix. “F**k, she’s so tight.” Alec muttered to himself, his dark hair clinging to his neck and forehead. When helooked up at his brother, his eyes were dark and half-crazed with lust. “Mark him, so that he can joinus.” Easier said than done, I thought through the pleasure-filled haze that fell over my mind. Alec chuckedmy bathing suit bottoms out of the pool, and they landed with a wet plop on the cement. My entire bodywent stiff when his thumb grazed against the sensitive bundle of nerves between my legs, and Icouldn’t help but throw my head back and moan. Kade gripped my hips, keeping me upright in the water as his brother pressed the head of his lengthagainst my opening. There was no hesitation on either end when Alec slid the entirety of his lengthnovelbin

inside of me, stretching me to the point where it nearly hurt. That twinge of pain was followed by theincredible feeling of being full, dominated by one of the two men I loved. Alec pushed the two of us against the wall of the pool, smushing me in between them both. It was Kadewho kept me standing when Alec moaned in bliss and thrust against me. I wanted them both, both filling me until I couldn’t tell where I began and they ended. I wanted to beclose to them in the most carnal of ways. Humans were animals after all, and werewolves—well, wewere more animalistic than the rest of them. My teeth elongated on their own, and I sought out that perfect spot on Kade’s neck. Kade’s initialreaction wasn’t as physical as his brothers, but even the mighty Kade succumbed to the intense washof emotions that flooded his system. No longer was I eavesdropping on their emotions, an unwelcome visitor forced to watch. Now we wereall connected, closer than we had ever been. As my teeth pierced Kade’s skin, his head fell back and his mouth opened. There was somethingbeautiful about seeing two brutal men completely unhinged and vulnerable beneath me. His emotions grew stronger within me, and I could feel him picking up on my own. ‘I love you, Kade’ I told him through my thoughts, through the l**k that bonded us all together. ‘I loveyou, so much. Both of you.’
