Abby was taken inside to rest and the remaining members of the pack had headed off to do other things. The witches were taken inside and give space to rest until Sam could teleport them home. Candy stood watching Annie as the dark-haired man spoke with her.
His smell wasn’t as delicious as Annie’s but Candy still couldn’t help the way her wolf perked up at his soft scent. Almonds with something clean, like a citrus fruit and incenses that tickled her nose and made her think of magic. She walked closer to two of them. His voice was calm and soothing and she felt the same pull to him as she did to Annie.
Candy bit her lip. How could this be?
That she was drawn to both of them. She could feel her wolf brushing against the surface. The beast wanted out, wanted to go to its mates. The man turned his head, shaking his long hair over his shoulder as his indigo eyes met hers. Candy felt her pulse quicken and the desire to move closer to him rose up in her. Annie looked over at her with a soft smile and Candy moved closer. She liked those smiles.
She was coming to realize that she liked any smile that Annie was wiling to give her.
“Candy, this is Stolas.” Annie said introducing the two, “He just wanted to check on me, he was at the warehouse watching us to help keep Abby safe.”
“Hello Stolas.” Candy said, feeling her cheeks heat up as she all but purred his name. His lip twitched into a smile as his eyes sparkled at hers.
“Candy, I was just checking on your lovely mate.”
Candy sucked in a breath. How had he known that she and Annie were mates?
She hadn’t told anyone yet, hadn’t claimed the woman beside her. It wouldn’t be long though, she wanted her; the wolf wanted her. It wanted to see its mark on her throat, to smell her scent as the two blended together. Candy couldn’t help but wonder how Stolas would smell, coated in both of their scents. Would his eyes darken in lust or brighten with the thrill of the chase?
His nostrils flared as he turned to look at her and she felt wetness pooling at her core as she thought of taking them both to her bed. Candy had never had a threesome before, but she very much wanted to now. She had never seen the appeal, could never understand why Drake and Owen shared. Candy saw it now, she so saw it. Slipping her hand into Annie’s she gave her fingers a soft squeeze. “Why don’t we go get you something to eat?”
Annie smiled at her and Candy felt a pang of guilt, she didn’t know how her mate would feel about her wanting to bed another. Hell, she didn’t even know how Annie felt about her, really. There was no denying it though, she was drawn to both of them and that was something that she would need to talk to Annie about before things went further.

Annie looked down at her feet. Or at least she would have if it weren’t for her swollen stomach. Her face flushed with the fact that Annie was holding her hand in front of another, Beau had never done that. She could remember the first time she had tried to hold his hand in the hallway when they were in junior high. How he had slapped her hand away and turned a glare towards her. Annie bit her lip, looking at their interlaced fingers, feeling her heart beat flutter in her chest.
She didn’t know if it was the babies kicking or butterflies in her stomach; she liked to think that it was butterflies. “Dinner sounds perfect, why I don’t I join you too?” Stolas asked, pulling her attention towards him. Annie looked towards her mate before nodding. She didn’t know what it was about the oddly thin, handsome man. She liked him though, Annie wasn’t sure if it was a friendly like or an attraction like and that made her feel a pang of guilt.
Candy gave her hand a soft squeeze, and she felt the guilt rise. She shouldn’t be thinking about another. She had a mate now. It didn’t matter if she thought he was handsome; she wasn’t like Beau. She wouldn’t do that to Candy. She knew how wolves were about their mates. Worrying the inside of her cheek she tried to push those feelings down, she wouldn’t hurt Candy.
Annie followed her mate as she led her towards the kitchen. Trying her best not to think about how close Stolas was standing to her or how it made the heat rise in her belly being between the two of them. She knew that she shouldn’t be thinking about that, letting lust make her decisions for her in the past had proven to be an awful idea.
Dinnerwas hadin comfortable conversation by the three.Stolas made his way up to talk to Sam while Candy walked Annie to her room.“Thank you for dinner,”Annie said with a slight blush staining her cheeks.“Anytime, I enjoyed cooking for you.”Candy said, she wanted to kiss Annie but didn’t want to scare her away.Stepping closer, Candy nervously fidgeted with the hem of her tank top. Annie looked up at her with wide blue eyes as she tucked a lock of hair behind her ear.She stepped closer to Candy, feeling the heat of her body through her thin t-shirt.“Is it okay, if I-“Annie said before looking down shyly.“Yes.”Candy blurted out as she leaned forward, pressing her lips to Annie’s soft lips.Annie sighed, feeling the sparks from before, the he
Candy tossed beneath the cotton sheets in the darkness of her room. The cold shower she had taken had done nothing to take away the need she felt. The longing to go to her mate, to take her. Claim her, to be claimed.Dragging her hands through her hair, she thought about what Annie’s words. Her mate had enjoyed her kiss, she reached up touching her lips. She could feel her cheeks heating with a blush as she thought about how Annie’s cheeks had flushed as her eyes had shined with arousal. Candy could feel the wetness pooling between her thighs as the need grew worse. Her wolf wanted her to go to her mate, to touch her. To taste her, it was a need she felt ingrained in her bones.Letting out a sigh of frustration she looked up at the ceiling kicking off her covers, her body felt like it was on fire. Begging to be touched. Closing her eyes, she thought about Annie and the kiss they
“I, I-“Annie stammered as Candy’s honey-colored eyes met hers.“You?” Candy asked, her lip twitching into a smirk as she felt her body responding to being close to her mate. The need to touch her had her fingers itching and her pulse racing.“I was just going to ask where the shower was?” Annie said biting her lip as a blush covered the tops of her cheeks.“Was that all you needed?” Candy asked as she bit her lower lip, a mischievous look in her eyes as she stepped closer to Annie. She brought her hands to Annie’s waist.“Yes,” Annie hissed out. Her body pulsing with need as she brought her hands up, tangling them in Candy’s colorful strands. She pressed her lips against Candy’s the kiss was a battle for dominance one that Candy easily accepted and relished in as A
Candy stilled her movements as she heard the cry slip past Annie’s lips.“Annie?” She asked, unsure of why her mate was crying.“Y, y, yeah?”“Did I do something wrong? I’ve never been with a woman before and if I did something wrong, please let me know.” Candy said as she sat up to look at her mate. Annie had her hands over her face as her shoulders shook.“No, no. You were perfect.” She said with a sob.“Then why are you crying baby?” Candy asked as she moved to lay beside Annie.“I just, I didn’t... I’ve never, it’s never felt that amazing before.” Annie said with a hiccuping sob.Candy gently grabbed Annie’s wr
Annie straightened the borrowed shirt that Drake had brought her as she followed Candy. Her nerves were frayed and she really didn’t want to go into the clinic.Didn’t want to face the physical proof on the screen that she was pregnant. The flutters and strange alien movements were enough for her. The ultrasound that she had done over a month ago was more than enough proof for her.Asking the pack’s doctor to keep her secret had been a gamble, it was one she was glad she had taken.Beau’s response to her pregnancy hadn’t been a joyous thing. Not that she had expected it to be. He had never raised his hand to her, but when she had told him it was the first time she had been afraid that he might strike her.Sure, he had been rough with her. At that moment though as
“Candy?” Doc said, tilting her head to the side as she looked at her daughter and the woman whose hand she was holding.“Mom, this is Annie.” Candy bit her lower lip as she looked at her mother. She wanted her mother to accept her mate, she wanted her mother to accept her.“Annie it’s nice to meet you. Why don’t you come on back?” Doc shook herself, returning to her professional bedside manner.Annie brought her hand up to her stomach. Looking from the doctor to her mate. She could feel the tension pouring from Candy. She didn’t need the bond in place to be able to see the change in the other woman.She could feel it in the way she gripped her hands, how Candy gulped, how her eyes moved from Annie to her mother.“I am,&
Stolas looked away from the game that he and Sam were playing. His friend was being quieter than normal.“What happened with the wolves and the vampire?” Stolas asked, looking back at the screen.“They wanted time with her.” Sam said with a frown as he watched the character toss a grenade with a smile. He needed this kind of destruction to pull his mind away from her face.Lilith had looked so betrayed as he had placed a hand on her shoulder and one on her chin.“So do you.”“All I’ve got is time, they don’t. Well, the half-breed does.” He said, his lip curling in disgust. “I’ll get her to myself soon enough.”“How will you manage with the others?” Stolas said, watching the screen
Candy walked behind Annie, her eyes glued to her round ass. She bit her lip. She still hadn’t talked to her mother about what might happen to Annie and the twins. Well triplets, if she claimed her mate.
