Honey
Ihelp Grady with breakfast; the entire time I feel like my body is overheating. I feel itchy like a million ants are crawling over me. “Is the heat on in here?”
Grady looks up from flipping the bread. “No, I don’t think so. Why are you feeling hot?” He moves over to where the temperature is displayed and looks at it for a moment before moving back to the stove. “It’s not on; why don’t you step outside, babe, and I can finish here.”
“Good idea; the air may do me some good.” I walk out the front seeing a sleepy Cam making his way to the kitchen. I give him a brief wave before opening the door.
Once outside, the air chills my skin a little, but it isn’t enough. I sit down on the porch, hoping that if I spend enough time outside my body temperature will go down. Sitting alone is nice. I can hear everything, and it gives me time to reflect. I am so happy with my life right now, never thinking that I would have someone love me, let alone multiple people love me. My mother would have loved my mates.
Ronnie and her ability to pull a smile from me even when my thoughts turn to darker times; Roman, who offers strength and love like he is undefeatable; Grady, the man who has been with me in the darkest of times and still loves me; and finally Cam, my soulful Alpha mate, whose heart was ripped away from him. He gave love another chance and jumped in with both feet, giving me the greatest gift. A small tear slips down my face, not one of sadness but one of joy. I know my mother would be happy with who I have in my life.
When I place my head on my folded arms, I close my eyes, just listening to the sounds around the cabin. When a noise catches me off guard, my eyes snap open, and a snarl rips from my throat before I can stop it. Standing there, I see Phoenix.
“Why do all of you keep coming around here?” My voice is low and threatening.
“We just want a chance please; we know we made a mistake.”
Phoenix stops when I bare my teeth at him, he holds his hands up in surrender until I stop snarling. “What do you want?”
“I come in peace; I promise I just want to talk to you.” He hesitantly moves closer to me, and when I don’t make any move to stop him, he moves the rest of the way to me, sitting down and closing the gap between us. “Wow, you smell amazing.”
He leans closer to me, his nose almost in my neck. I let him until I realize what he is doing. “What the hell?” I shove him back.
“I’m sorry.” He blushes slightly from my tone. “I just wanted to come and apologize for everything. I want to let you know I’m done; I will not hurt you anymore.” He pauses, looking out at the trees.
“I hear a ‘but’ coming.”
“Honey, it’s not that I don’t want a mate. I would love one but there are things I am not willing to give up that most mates would not approve of, and my family would not approve.”
“How do you know what I would approve of if you don’t allow me a chance? You completely wrote me off because you found out about my past, which by the way, is something I couldn’t help.” He winces from my tone. “I have wonderful mates, and if you don’t want to give me a…”
“Honey, I’m bisexual. I have a relationship with Syler and Riddic. Are you telling me you would allow that? Don’t bullshit me.”
I can’t help it, I laugh. His eyes narrow to slits, and I stop myself long enough to speak. “Seriously, have you met my mates? Ronnie Rain is my mate, and last I checked, she has a pussy. For you to hurt me so badly before you even gave me a chance to tell you my feelings was a dangerous move.” With my mood ruined and my body heating up, I go to stand when Phoenix stops me, holding out his arm.
“Wait, Honey, how would you feel?”
His touch sends sparks flying through me. I shudder, my panties immediately flooding. What the hell is going on with me. Taking a deep breath to try and focus, I once again remove his hand from me.
“Phoenix, if being with them makes you happy, then I would want you to be with them. I would expect you not to step out with someone outside of my mates, and I would not allow any relations with Ronnie, but I wouldn’t mind you with them or even watching and joining.” I turn to see Ronnie in the doorway with a smirk on her face. “Have a good day, Phoenix.”
I walk into the cabin and close the door. I watch as Phoenix walks away, rubbing the back of his head.
“You gave him something to think about.” Ronnie wraps her arms around me when my stomach feels like I have been punched, my knees buckle, and I groan. I sit down inside the door and curl into a ball. Ronnie shouts for someone, and all at once, I hear the pounding of feet.
Squeezing my eyes shut to focus on not crying out, I am lifted into a pair of arms. From the scent, I know it is Roman. “One of you grab a heating pad and some Midol, and please bring it to the room.” I hear the guys scrambling behind Ronnie and Roman, trying to get what she asked for.
When Roman lays me on my bed, I open my eyes, just as Cam and Grady come in, both looking a bit panicked. “What’s wrong with her, Ronnie?” Cam asked.
“I think she’s getting her period.” All the guys' faces turn down into frowns, they all climb on the bed with me.
Roman looks at me then at Ronnie. “Having her period shouldn’t hurt like this.”
I really want to tell them that this isn’t my period; mine do not hurt like this. I shiver and when Cam and Roman each curl up by my side and wrap their arms around me, my panties once again feel like a freaking river flows through. Grady moves to the top of the bed, lifting my head and placing it back in his lap.
I watch as my two wolves and my fox shifter lift their noses, smelling my arousal permeating the air. I look at Roman whose fangs descend. I am mortified but thank the heavens none of them say anything to me. Cam and Roman squeeze me tighter between them while Grady strokes my hair and Ronnie plays with my feet. The pain recedes and I drift off to sleep.
When I wake up, it is to someone between my legs, tongue slowly licking me. I moan, my body heating, feeling like an inferno. From the scent, it is Cam. I reach down, grabbing some of his hair, holding his head between my legs. “Cam, don’t stop.”
When he grabs my hips and squeezes, I can feel myself getting closer to release. He continues using his tongue; when I try to pull his hair to make him move up towards me, he chuckles, refusing to give me what I want. I need him inside me, need him to drive his cock into me, filling the void in me.
My release is powerful, it rocks my body, but I need more. I yank again on Cam’s hair, and he finally brings his mouth to mine. His wolf is present in his eyes. He isn’t the normal soft wolf that makes love to me. He slams into me, his mouth devouring mine. He is fucking me so hard, squeezing my hips. His hips creating the perfect rhythm, I move all the way to the headboard. Knowing we are being incredibly loud, and yet I don’t care, I wrap both my legs around his hips, forcing his cock to go deeper, the start of his knot coming out.
Cam grabs the headboard and pulls all the way out, he slams back into me, using the headboard as leverage. My back arches off the bed, pushing into him when I feel his knot move into me and lock into place, the slight pressure, and the way his cock expands, filling me to the brink. This feels different from the first time he knotted me. It is more; he feels bigger, I feel fuller. He continues to pound into me, his eyes never leaving mine, the sweat between our bodies making everything slicker. His thrusts become more frantic.
Cam takes one hand off the headboard and goes directly to my nipple, tweaking it and rolling it between his fingers, making me scream. I know I am close to coming and with the way his cock is expanding, I know he is close as well. When he reaches down and bites me over his mating mark, I explode, black dots swim across my vision.
“Honey, are you okay? I don’t know what came over me.” I can hear the worry in his voice, but all I can think about is the amazing feeling of him still locked inside my body. “Honey?”
“Cam, my love, I’m perfect.” I wrap a leg around his and keep him from trying to move off me. The pressure of his body on mine is absolute perfection. I run my hand all over his arms, across his tattoo, listening to his breathing.
“I can’t pull out until my knot...” I stop him with a kiss.
“Cam, this is just what I needed.” We lay there, with him on top of me. When he can move again, he slides off me.
“Parent’s Day is coming up soon. Are you ready to meet my mom?” I feel a twinge of sadness when he says that, knowing my mom will never meet the people who make my heart flutter; the men and the woman who mean the world to me.
“I am. I hope she likes me.” That was another thing that worried me, what if my mate’s parents don’t like me? I know I am meeting Ronnie’s parents, Cam’s mom, and unbelievably Roman’s parents. Grady isn’t a student so I know he will be with me all day for support.
As for my other mates, it worries me. They outright denied me, except Legion, he has started to try to make amends for what he did to me.
“She will. In fact, she will love you. I was so far into depression when my...” He stops, he doesn’t want to say mate, I reach out and caress his cheek.
“Cam, you can say mate. You are mine forever.” His eyes meet mine once again and this time the sadness fades leaving him with a brilliant smile across his face.
“When my mate died, I felt lost and alone. I was in a pit of despair; I was actually supposed to go to my mom’s school, but I couldn’t be anywhere where she was supposed to have gone. I believe in fate, and that is why I have you now.” He leans in to leave me with a sweet kiss. “Come on, let’s get up, Roman wants to go over Parent’s Day with us.”
When we make it to the living room, my other mates are already waiting. Grady grins at us, “Did you two have a good morning?”
His smirk tells me he heard us; I feel the blush creeping up my throat until Ronnie breaks out laughing. “That could have been us, but the Alpha here went all feral and kicked us out.”
I turn, surprise shining in my face, looking at Cam.“You kicked everyone out?”
He looks so embarrassed, but he nods, “I don’t know why, but I had to have you.”
“That’s okay.” I turn to look at Roman. “I know you want to discuss Parent’s Day, but do you mind if I go shower? I’m overheated.”
“Of course, how about I make some coffee so we can all talk once you’re back?”
“Thank you.” I leave the living room and hear someone following me.
Looking over my shoulder, I see it is Ronnie. “Do you mind if I join you? I need a shower as well.” She stops in the middle of the hall, waiting to see if I will let her.
“I would love for you to join me.” She smiles so brightly, and my heart thumps in my body. This woman is everything to me. The wolf part of me wants to smother her in protection and never let her out of my sight, but the human side of me marvels at how amazing she really is; she is never afraid to run with me and my other wolf mates and does her best to keep up, sometimes even getting ahead of us.
I reach out my hand to her and when she grabs it, I give it a squeeze leading her back to the bathroom. When we get naked, I go to stand in the mirror to look at the royal mating marks that still plague me with the reminder that half of my mates don’t want me.
Looking at the mating marks, I know Legion is coming around to it and trying since the golden crown made of leaves burns bright. Riddic’s flame is an intriguingly light purple, it is slowly fading, and Phoenix’s crown of flames dulled a little as well.
Ronnie walks over to me examining my back, “They really are beautiful marks.” She traces her finger down my spine, making me shudder.
“They are, I just wish they meant something to them.” I move to turn on the water, stopping the thoughts running through my head. I don’t want to be sad about them anymore. When the water is warm, I go in followed by Ronnie.
When she starts to wash my hair, she leans in and kisses my lips. “Honey, I will always be here no matter what, you have my heart.”
Back in the living room with the rest of my mates, I sit down between Cam and Ronnie while Grady sits on the edge. Roman is across from me, looking nervous. “School starts back up tomorrow.” He takes a moment, "and on Friday we will be having Parent's Day, and that's what I want to talk about, Honey."
“Why are you worried?” His nervousness is unsettling. Roman is never nervous.
“This day is all about the parents and trying to shove their children’s achievements down people’s throats, even mine. They come here to make connections in other species' worlds either for business or pleasure. I would love to cancel it, but unfortunately the council is against it. They say Parent’s Day has helped so many in the past and has formed great bonds.”
Ronnie sits up. “Honey, my mom and dad will be there. They are some of the top tech gurus in the world, they formed Rain Enterprises.”
Grady’s mouth drops open. “Wait, you’re that Ronnie Rain? Wow, I never put it together. Your parents are the ones who created the Rain Secure.”
“Wait, what is Rain Secure?” I feel like I am just grasping some of this world, but to know that one of my mate’s families plays a major part in the supe world is shocking.
Ronnie turns to me with a look of such pride. “Rain Secure is the number one security system in the world. No one has been able to ever hack or break into a home that has it. We have many features that one day I will show you everything for, but the biggest is our surveillance system, it scans anyone that steps on your property and tells you what species they are, if they have warrants, if they are carrying a weapon, everything.”
Cam perks up. “Ronnie, maybe you can ask your parents to install one here? We can pay for it.”
Ronnie blushes and looks down; her face is one of sadness. “I don’t know Cam; they won’t agree with who I am mated to.” She glances up to me “Not that there is something wrong with you my love, but they are very closed minded.”
I reach out to her, “Ronnie, I’m not going anywhere; we will face it together.” She looks relieved. I turn back to my other mates “Are there any more surprises with your families?”
Roman looks sheepish. “My father is a vampire clan leader. My brother, Ash, is an actor. My mother, well she is loving and kind, she is the balance of the family.”
Cam speaks next while my head is still swirling. “My mother is the headmistress at Deadwood Academy, but I already told you she will love you.”
Grady moves to kneel in front of me. “Babe, it will be okay, I will not leave you. I will be with you the whole day.”
“Thank you, Grady.” I am nervous and with school starting tomorrow I am a little worried about seeing the guys again. Two of the heirs are at least trying to make amends. I am still worried about Syler, he is the one constantly trying to cause problems with me.
“Honey, I have to go back to the house tomorrow, I have to close it up and grab my things. I promise to be back before Parent’s Day.” I know Grady has to leave; I just wasn’t expecting it so soon. “Will you spend some time with me tonight?”
“Yes.”
I know he needs the time with me, and I know my other mates will be okay with it. The rest of the day is spent talking and laughing. Multiple times in the day I feel the familiar pang in my stomach and the raging heat that accompanies it.
When my mates ask me multiple times if I am okay, I push it off telling them I think it is my period as well. Eventually night falls and I spend the rest of it in Grady's arms.
