  “It would be easy for me to snap your neck, lil’ girl. Payback for my family that was killed tonight.” She recognized the voice from the phone. He kissed her neck and trailed his tongue along her skin. Tempest almost gagged. “Oh, you taste good. I think I’ll keep you—”

  “Let her go now.” Dominic’s voice was deadly.

  “Oh, the black wolf. This your woman?” He laughed and it reminded her of a hyena. “Then I’ll definitely want to keep you.”

  She saw Alex trot out in the form of his wolf. His snarl was fierce and even as the rogue wolf held her against his thin body, she felt a shudder of fear run through him.

  “Like I said, let her go,” Dominic repeated.

  “Do it,” she said. “I’ll make sure they don’t hurt you. They’ll let you leave this area untouched, I promise.”

  The rogue wolf laughed again and it grated against her nerves. “I think I’ll take you with me and by the time they find you…well, let’s just say you’ll be in one piece, but that’s about the only good thing about what will be left.”

  “Honey, look at me,” Dominic said and she raised her eyes to his. “He’s not going to get the chance to hurt you.”

  She smiled wide. “Oh, I know that, Daddy.”

  With that, she reared her head back and used it as a weapon. Pain burst through her head as stars sparkled in her vision, but it got the desired effect. The man screamed in pain and let go of her to grab his nose. It was the split second opening that Alex needed. As she was falling to the ground, she saw Alex take the man by the throat. His scream was cut off and became a gurgle as blood filled his throat. He struggled as Alex dragged him away into the darkness to his death.

  “You okay, baby?” Dominic asked as he helped her to her feet.

  “Ouchie. I think I may have a knot in the back of my head.” His gentle fingers probed at her injury and she winced. “Yup, that hurts.”

  “I’ll kiss your booboo later. Right now I’m going to go help Alex.” Dominic kissed her gently. “Go get cleaned up and lock the doors till we get back.”

  She did as she was told and with a long, steamy shower she washed off the makeup and grime of the night. She smoothed lotion on her skin and pulled on a robe as she made her way downstairs with the full intention of grabbing a glass of milk and a sandwich. Playing hostess, a rogue wolf attack, and everything else that happened tonight took its toll and she’d never actually tasted any of the food she prepared. She was in the middle of making a peanut butter sandwich when the backdoor opened and both of her men stood there, completely naked. Their bodies were wet and the moonlight gleamed off their skin, the look in their eyes was wild and untamed. Droplets of water fell from Dominic’s unruly dark hair and she watched as other others trailed down the sculpted abs of Alex, into the line of his pubic hair.

  “Why are you guys wet?” she asked. Her mouth was suddenly dry.

  “We tried to cool off with the garden hose,” Alex said as they stepped into the kitchen and the door slammed behind them.

  “Did it work?” she asked.

  Dominic shook his head. “Nope.”

  “Are you wearing anything under that robe?” Alex asked.

  “No, I just came out of the shower. Why are you asking?”

  “Just wondering what I had to rip off to get to your skin,” Alex replied. “Take the robe off, Tempest.”

  The heat in the room went up a few degrees; their sexuality rolled off them in waves. The look in their eyes almost made her come without a touch. She felt a gush of her own essence release from her pussy and run down her inner thigh.

  “We’re going to fuck you hard. You are going to scream our names when you come,” Dominic said. “Then no one and I mean no one can ever dispute who you belong to.”

  “Uh-huh.”

  What else could Tempest say? She took off her robe and their hands and mouths were all over her at once. She was being eaten alive and succumbed to the pleasure of it wholeheartedly. Alex dropped to his knees and his mouth quickly found her snatch. With a primal growl he pushed her legs apart and used his tongue to fuck her until she screamed. Dominic feasted on her breasts and lips, massaging the twin globes and sucking the nipples deep into his mouth while Alex used his fingers and buried them deeply inside her.

  Tempest felt overwhelmed by the tide of passion, but there was no slowing it down. The animal inside them had been given free rein and was fueling their desire. Dominic’s fingers dipped into her along with Alex’s. Together they had their fingers inside her and Tempest moaned in pleasure. They found a rhythm quickly. Her body was against Dominic who was leaning up against the counter and she was braced against him. His fingers then trailed up the crack of her ass while Alex continued to pleasure her. Dominic slipped one lone digit into the tight hole of her anus and she bucked in delight.

  “Come for us. Scream it, baby.” Dominic’s voice was harsh against her ear.

  Alex sucked on her clit while he used his fingers to fuck her and combined with Dominic’s slow deliberate ministrations into her ass, Tempest was unable to hold back and she screamed as pleasure engulfed her. Alex gave a guttural moan against her thigh. She was so damn wet, she didn’t think that she could possibly stand what was to come next. Alex lifted her and she wrapped her legs around his waist. His hard cock was inside her immediately and he groaned against her breasts.

  “Why don’t you keep lubricant in the kitchen?” Dominic asked.

  “A little olive oil will work,” she gasped. “Oh, yes, Alex, more!”

  Luckily, the extra virgin olive oil she liked to use was close by and within arm’s reach. Seconds later she felt the head of his cock at the tight entrance to her ass and he slipped slowly inside. His groan combined with her whimper and Alex’s harsh cry of her name. Tempest lost all train of thought at that point and need overtook when they began to move in unison. She was pleasurably pinned between the two of them and as the pace increased she indeed screamed their names and her release came and she fell over into the abyss of her orgasm. They followed swiftly behind her and the aftermath was a mass of naked tangled arms and legs on the kitchen floor.

  “What was that?” she said after a few minutes of trying to catch her breath.

  “It was your name, sweetheart—a tempest.” Alex chuckled.

  “In other words, wolves on a hunt equals very horny wolves afterward, who want to mate,” Dominic explained. “God, that was amazing.”

  “I forgot all about my peanut butter sandwich.” Tempest giggled.

  “Hey, that sounds good. We didn’t get to eat.” Dominic’s stomach grumbled in agreement.

  “Shower and peanut butter sandwiches with milk for everyone?” she hinted. “On one condition.”

  “Sounds good,” Alex replied and then hesitated. “Wait, what’s the condition?”

  “That you carry me to the shower, I don’t want to walk.”

  Dominic levered himself up. “Fine, but then I want two sandwiches and some cake.”

  “I want the same deal,” Alex piped in.

  “Okay, I can do that.” She held her hand up to Dominic and he lifted her easily.

  She leaned her head against his shoulder as he and Alex talked on the way upstairs. Nothing felt more perfect than this moment in time with them together. No one could say they weren’t a family in every sense of the word.

  The next morning, the endgame was played when Vernon came up to the front door. At sunrise Tempest heard the Acadia pack pulling up stakes and getting ready to head back to their own grounds. Two hours later, she was in the kitchen making breakfast while Dominic and Alex drank coffee at their natural wood table. The knock on the front door made them all glance at each other. They knew it was Vernon.

  “Do you want me to stay here?” Tempest asked.

  Dominic held out his hand. “No, honey, we do this together. He has to see we’re not going to hide you away.”

  “Let me do the talking, Dominic. He rubs you the wrong way and you may rip his head of
f.” Alex chuckled. “I’ll be the voice of reason, but a firm one.”

  The knock sounded again more insistent this time and a low growl came from Alex’s throat. His voice of reason had a temper too.

  “Honey, remember, calm voice of reason,” Tempest said gently. She laced her fingers with his and Dominic’s and together they walked to front door. They stepped, united, outside and she saw Vernon glance at their hands. His mouth tightened and irritation crossed his face, yet he smiled wide though it didn’t reach his eyes.

  “I’ve come to thank you for your hospitality,” Vernon said. “You were very helpful last night.”

  Alex inclined his head. “We were glad to help.”

  “Then we bid you goodbye and we will see you in the next few weeks for check in,” Vernon said. “We hope to see you as well, Tempest. The pack has become fond of you.”

  “You won’t be seeing any of us, especially Tempest,” Alex said.

  “Excuse me? I don’t think I heard you correctly.” Vernon growled, a menacing sound that made the two men standing behind him shrink back while it didn’t make Alex or Dominic flinch.

  “You heard me very clearly, Vernon. I noticed while the rest of us fought you didn’t even shift,” Alex said conversationally.

  “I am pack leader. I don’t have to—”

  Alex cut him off. “No, you don’t, but I would think you’d fight for your pack. But here we were doing it for you, and I believe that earns us the right to never have to see your face again.”

  “You believe wrong. This is my area and you’ll check in until I deem you don’t have to.” Vernon’s voice was ice cold.

  “Well, then let me put it another way. We are taking the right and you will say nothing.” Alex’s tone was deadly. “Why? Because you know Dominic or I will challenge you for our peace.”

  “You would challenge and lose,” Vernon spat out.

  “Do you think you can send any of these men against us? We’d dissect your pack and you know it and you’re too much of a coward to stand against either of us,” Alex explained. “So you’ll go and stay in Acadia and we’ll have a mutual understanding not to encroach on each other’s property.”

  “And if I refuse?” Vernon snarled.

  “Then you die and anyone who stands with you dies.” Alex smiled coldly. “I hope that I make myself perfectly clear on this. Your pack is weak because it has a weak leader. Don’t make us prove it.”

  “You may think this is over, but it’s not,” Vernon sneered.

  “Yes, it is,” Dominic snarled. His canines descended and he moved so fast that Tempest didn’t even notice when he let her hand go. All she knew was that now he had one of Vernon’s companions held off the floor by the neck. “If not, Alex won’t be able to hold me back from ripping your throat out. See how easy it is for me to lose control? Imagine that tenfold, especially if you keep looking at Tempest the way you do.” He let go of the man he held by the neck and the man coughed and sputtered.

  “Leave our property. Don’t come back or send any of your people. We’ll see that as an act of war and, trust me, we know how to wage one,” Alex said. “Leave now!”

  Alex took a step forward and Vernon scrambled back. He missed the top step and fell to the gravel. The two men in the pack tried to help him up, but Vernon pushed them away angrily and stalked off with them following quickly at his heels. Tempest leaned against Alex’s shoulder and the three of them watched him and all his pack drive off their property.

  “He’s already planning how to get back at us,” Tempest murmured.

  “If he does, we’ll be ready and he’ll pay for it.” Alex kissed her temple.

  “Don’t you worry, my sweet Tempest, you are always going to be protected by your wolf mates.”

  Dominic picked her up, wrapped his arms around her, and twirled around until she laughed in delight. She looked down into his handsome, happy face. Dominic placed her on her feet and Alex kissed her and tried to tickle her, but she got away and ran from them playfully, trying to shut them out of the house. They got in and tackled her to the carpeted floor. She put her thoughts and worries of Vernon and everything else out of her mind. What repercussions their actions may bring, she knew they would face them together, whenever that time came. Right now, there was not a care in the world in the arms of her wolves.
