  Well, that’s a huge relief. I don’t think I would be able to do that, just thinking about it

  causes me to shiver, and it’s not a good shiver either.

  “Calm down, you have nothing to fear from me taking anything from you. It’s Elizabeth that I

  want to please, not you.”

  What does he expect me to say to that? Should I feel bummed that he doesn’t find me

  attractive? Hell no! I’m happy that he doesn’t, it would be just plain weird. Elizabeth has been out for at least twenty minutes now, and she hasn’t moved once, not even an inch.

  R a v i s h i n g E l i z a b e t h ‘ W h i t e T i m b e r P a c k ’

  “I hope she wakes up soon,” I say and Samuel nods his head with a worried expression

  etched on his face as he stares at our mate.

  An hour later…

  Elizabeth starts to stir, my wolf perks up I watch my mate stretch and moan softly, which

  causes me to lightly growl, hearing her moan, sends all the blood rushing to my now growing

  erection. Samuel runs out of the room to get her parents, I watch my mate open her lovely eyes and

  stare up at me with a sleepy smile on her face.

  “Mate,” she whispers softly, nodding my head, I sit down on the edge of the bed, placing my

  hand on her cheek rubbing my thumb across it.

  “How are you feeling?”

  She groans while she tries sitting up.

  “How long have I been out for?” she asks looking around her room, rubbing her sleepy eyes.

  “Where are my parents and Samuel?”

  “Samuel stepped out to let your parents know that you’re awake,” she nods, looking shyly

  away from me.

  Just then Samuel comes back into the room with Elizabeth’s parents in tow. Her mother

  rushes over to us.

  “Elizabeth, are you alright?” She nods her head giving her mother a smile. Samuel takes a

  seat on the bed beside Elizabeth while I’m on her other side, she takes both of our hands in hers,

  squeezing them both. She looks down at our entwined hands, then up to her mother.

  “How is it possible, I have two mates?” she asks, biting her lip worriedly, looking between

  both of us with worry written in her eyes.

  “Elizabeth, remember when I told you that you’re special? Well, this is what comes into play.

  You’re a white wolf; white wolves usually have two mates, most of the time. I was going to talk to

  you about it on your birthday. I don’t know how you can sense them already, you’re not eighteen.”

  Her mother sighs; she takes a seat at the end of the bed looking at all three of us.

  R a v i s h i n g E l i z a b e t h ‘ W h i t e T i m b e r P a c k ’

  “You can’t fully mate them till your eighteen, Elizabeth. Those are pack rules, no matter

  what happens.” Elizabeth nods, looking between Samuel and me, checking to see if we’re going to

  object.

  “Mom, can I have some time alone with my mates, please?” her mother’s eyes widen, she

  looks between us, Samuel tries to contain his amusement to himself but fails, he snickers at her

  expression.

  Oh my God, my mother’s expression she had on her face when I asked for some alone time

  with my mates, was priceless. I know she didn’t want to leave me alone with them, but she agreed

  and left. My father seems to be taking this pretty well. Well, I hope he is he hasn’t said two words to me since I woke up, but he’s been sending my mate’s death glares. I hope everything works out, and

  it would tear me apart if he didn’t my mates, I know how my father can be.

  My mates are sitting quietly beside me; I guess I’ll have to start this conversation.

  “I’m assuming you both know you’re my mates.” They both nod at the same time.

  “I knew you were my mate when I saw you in the woods,” Samuel says, smiling at me.

  “When I went home, I caught your scent I followed it all the way to my brothers’ room.

  When my brother told me it was you, I had to come here right away.” Caleb squeezes my hand, just

  then I gasp and let his hand go, he’s going to be mated to that girl Kelly, the girl I saw him with at supper.

  “What about you’re mating? I thought you and Kelly are together?” Caleb’s eyes widen he

  scrambles to get his words out as fast as he can.

  “Once I knew you were my true mate, I got Kelly and her parents over, I told her about you.

  Kelly and I agreed before we started planning that if we found our true mates before we were

  mated, we would let them be with their true mate. Kelly was upset but she understands.”

  Oh my God, poor Kelly. Even if she was with my mate, I know this much that, it hurts when a

  wolf is left for another. I’ve heard that when a wolf has accepted a mate, a connection is made and

  when that person finds their true mate, it feels like a knife twists in your gut, when they leave. I just hope Kelly’s okay, and she finds her true mate too.

  R a v i s h i n g E l i z a b e t h ‘ W h i t e T i m b e r P a c k ’

  “I hope Kelly finds her mate. I can’t help but feel sad for her; this was supposed to be a

  happy time for her.” Putting my head down, Caleb lifts my chin, staring into my eyes.

  “Don’t worry, fate works in mysterious ways,” he places a kiss to my lips, the sparks start

  shooting all over my body. My eyes snap open and I pull back, turning quick to look at Samuel

  hoping he’s not upset and, I see he has a smile on his face. My cheeks burn, I try to look anywhere

  but at them.

  “Elizabeth, don’t be shy with us, we’re your mates. I know Caleb, is yours too. I’m fine with

  the fact that we have to share you. I’m not a wolf so, I’m not as territorial as Caleb,” Samuel looks over to Caleb.

  “My wolf knows we’re meant to share you as a mate so, you don’t have to worry about me

  tearing Samuel apart if that’s what you’re afraid of.” Phew, that’s good to know. It would hurt me

  knowing, that I’ve caused both of my mates to fight.

  “So, we’re all in understanding, both of you are my mates and there won’t be any fighting

  about it? If there is anything that bothers either of you, please talk to me.” I pled with them; they both nod their heads in agreement. I cuddle between my mates; they hold me, my wolf feeling

  fortuitous, like I’m home, right where I belong.

  “Samuel, tell me a little about you?”

  “I’m two hundred years old. I’m from England, originally. I’ve been waiting for you for quite

  a long time. My full name is Samuel Alexander Myers. My parents were killed two years before I was

  turned, no siblings. I’ve been on my own, till I met up with some other vampires about hundred and

  twenty-five years ago.” He explains everything about the vampire coven he’s from, mentioning he

  left the coven to search for me. I look at Caleb, smiling nodding that he can go next.

  “I’m twenty-four; my full name is Caleb Darren Jackson. I’m next in line for Alpha as you

  known already, I was born and raised here; white timber pack is my home.”

  “I know both of you are experienced with women. I want you both to know that I’m a

  virgin.” As soon as the words leave my mouth, my cheeks warm, I’m embarrassed to admit it. My

  wolf isn’t happy about the fact that our mates have had relations with other women, but there’s not

  much I can do about anything that happened in the past before me.

  “The women before you, Elizabeth, they meant nothing. I’ve been on this earth for a long

  time. I never loved another, like I do you, even
if we just met, you are my soul mate.” Him saying

  that, it’s hard to contain the tears that are trying so hard to fall.

  “What Samuel said is true, you’re my true mate. I’m sorry that,” Caleb gulps before he

  continues, “I never waited for you. I just hope you can forgive me for it.” He puts his head down in shame. I place my hand on his shoulder, as I look between both of them.

  R a v i s h i n g E l i z a b e t h ‘ W h i t e T i m b e r P a c k ’

  “I can’t control what happened before you both met me. Am I upset that you slept with

  other women; of course, it’s natural for any woman to be upset, but I want you to both know, I

  understand. I’m not angry at either of you.”

  They both seem to loosen up, both of them sighing; I can’t help myself but chuckle.

  R a v i s h i n g E l i z a b e t h ‘ W h i t e T i m b e r P a c k ’

  Chapter 8

  Two days later…

  Having two mates is a blessing. Caleb has been with me during the day while Samuel’s with

  me at night. They’re both amazing, they haven’t argued about who spends more time with me,

  Caleb growls every once in a while if Samuel and I get a little heated, but he mentions that it’s just because he’s having a hard time reining his wolf from marking me. Even though he knows that

  Samuel’s my mate too, his wolf is having a hard time knowing I’m not marked.

  Ryan has been keeping his distance from me unless Caleb’s around then he’ll talk to me but

  he seems so, different now when he talks to me he doesn’t meet my eyes. I just hope that in time

  we can be friends. I haven’t seen or talked to Kelly yet, but I got Caleb to get a hold of her. I want to make sure we can all be civil towards each other.

  Caleb was a little iffy about it at first, having his ex-meeting his mate, but I want to be able to

  get to the point where we can talk and be civil without wanting to tear each other’s throats out. I

  know, it’ll take time, but hopefully, we can become somewhat friends maybe. My wolf seems to be

  pretty quiet about the whole thing, which could end up being a bad thing or it could be a good thing, I’m not sure yet.

  I’m in Caleb’s parents’ house waiting in the living room for Kelly to show up. Caleb really

  didn’t want to leave me alone with her but I assured him that everything will be fine. Even if I’m not hundred percent sure it will. Even if they’ve had sex, I can’t fault them. It was before me, as long as it doesn’t happen again, there will be no problems. Caleb’s parents are somewhere out back, I’m sure

  Caleb put them up to it staying out back close enough if anything happens, he’s mine, my over

  protective mate. He’s supposed to be gone for a run while she stops in.

  I’m sitting on the couch, watching TV, when the doorbell rings. I get up and make my way to

  the door, but Caleb’s mother runs pass me in the hallway towards the door. Well, so much for them

  to be staying outside, while Kelly’s here. His mother opens the door with a small smile playing on

  her lips.

  “Hello, Kelly. I’ll let you and Elizabeth chat, while I help poor Darren outside with the

  weeding,” she gives Kelly a hug, I’m sure this is must be hard for Mary too, she knew Kelly since she was young and she connected with her, as her son’s mate. Mary leaves after she usher’s Kelly into

  R a v i s h i n g E l i z a b e t h ‘ W h i t e T i m b e r P a c k ’

  the living room, giving me a reassuring smile, she turns and leaves while shouting out that if we get thirsty to grab ourselves something from the fridge.

  “Please, sit,” I say, my voice sounding sympatric while I take in her appearance, this has been

  hard on her, I can tell by the bags that are on display in her eyes.

  She takes a seat on the couch; I sit down but not too close to her, I don’t want to make her

  feel uncomfortable. I’m sure she’s wondering why she’s here, she seems to be a little tense, she’s not sure how to act around me. I clear my throat, “I asked Caleb, to invite you here so, we could

  talk,” she nods, looking down at the floor, not meeting my gaze.

  “I’m sorry, I know this all happened so fast. This must be hard on you. Caleb and you have

  been close since you guys were kids. I just want to let you know, I don’t fault you or Caleb for what happened before he met me.” Kelly seems to relax a bit knowing I’m not angry.

  “I would like us to be able to be civil with each other, and maybe become friends down the

  road, if you want. I know it’ll be a little weird for you considering you were with Caleb, but it would mean something to Caleb and me if you would consider it. I know he wouldn’t want you to be

  pushed away completely because you both were good friends before all of this.”

  Kelly sniffle’s a little; she tries hard to contain the tears from falling.

  “I would like that, but I don’t want to upset you or your wolf. I know you must be on edge

  with me just being here.” Shaking my head, I place my hand on her shoulder.

  “You don’t have to worry about me. As long as nothing else happens between you two,

  everything should be fine,” giving her a little smile, she smiles back nodding her head as we laugh

  about it.

  “So friends, can we be civil?” I ask holding my hand out to her.

  “Friends,” she agrees.

  She ends up staying just for a little while longer, then she heads out to go to work, she

  actually works at the diner Ryan took me too, but I guess she wasn’t working that day when we

  went. It seems just like yesterday I was there having breakfast with Ryan and then bam, now I have

  two mates. It’s crazy, how things have turned out. I hope Ryan and Kelly can find their own

  happiness.

  Tori is arriving later today, I can’t wait to see her. I’m so excited. She’s staying for a month. I

  was so happy when Alpha Darren granted me permission to have her here.

  R a v i s h i n g E l i z a b e t h ‘ W h i t e T i m b e r P a c k ’

  Caleb and I are heading to the airport to pick up Tori; I’m vibrating in my seat with

  excitement, I can’t wait to see her face. When we get to the airport, I find out that her flight is

  delayed, and that it will be around forty-five minutes at least for her plane to arrive.

  “Are you hungry? We passed a nice little restaurant on the way here. We could go eat

  quickly and be back in time to get her if you want.” Well, I am hungry, this morning; I was so excited that I forgot to eat.

  “Sure, I’m starving, I couldn’t think of anything besides coming to get Tori that I totally

  forgot to eat something.”

  He chuckles at me, shaking his head, giving me a grin.

  The restaurant is a cute little place, Caleb places his hand on my lower back, ushering me in.

  Just having his hand on me, feeling the warmth from his touch is sending shivers through my body,

  he chuckles when he notices the little tremor that rolls through my body.

  “Is my touch affecting you, mate?” his voice husky, full of need.

  God, just hearing the huskiness of his voice, makes my thighs clench together; I try my

  hardest to show I’m not affected by him, as we make our way to our table, but I fail terribly, he

  kisses my neck lightly, I shudder in his embrace, he chuckles against my neck. I move slowly away

  from him and I slide in the booth; my panties soaked with desire, his eyes grow dark with desire as

  his nose flares while his intense eyes stare into the depths of mine, a growl escaping his chest.

  “Elizabeth, I can smell your desire. And God, does it smell so sweet,” my eyes
widen, and I

  feel my cheeks blush beet red, as I stare at my mate who’s licking his lips like it’s a meal he can’t wait to taste. I straighten my back when I see the waitress grabbing two menus and heads in our way,

  smiling as she walks up to us.

  She stops in front of our booth, handing us each a menu. Asking if we would like to order

  something to drink to start, I order lemonade for myself and Caleb orders an ice tea. She mentions

  she’ll be back to bring us our drinks and take our order down. She’s pretty fast, not even a minute

  later she’s back, placing our drinks down in front of us and ready to take our order.

  “So, have you both decided what you would like to eat?” she asks, she grabs her pen and

  pad from her apron, ready to jot down what we want.

  “I would like to have the King Burger with a side of fries, please,” his voice like silk while

  placing his order the waitress smiles, and nods and then she turns to me.

  R a v i s h i n g E l i z a b e t h ‘ W h i t e T i m b e r P a c k ’

  “And what would you like to order, dear?”

  “Can I have the chicken burger with extra mayo and a side of fries, please,” she nods, she

  picks up our menus and heads to the kitchen, she puts our order slip on the wheel, and she turns it

  around towards the cook.

  “So, are you excited to see Tori?” he asks, he takes a sip of his ice tea, looking at me over his

  glass with his eyes. My head nodding on its own repeatedly, my heart beats a mile a minute,

  knowing she’s going to be here with me, I let out a little squeal, he chuckles.

  “Yes, I can’t wait to see her. I know it’s only been a few days, but we’ve always seen each

  other every day at school and out of school, it feels weird not seeing her everyday like before.”

  “Are you going back to school or have you finished?”

  The waitress walks up with a tray of food, setting it down in front of us, and my stomach

  then decides it’s really hungry and lets out a little growl, Caleb chuckles smirking.

  “Well we better dig in before you eat the plate too,” Caleb smirks, we dig in, God, these fries

  are amazing, best fries I’ve tasted.
