“There are a lot of things you don't know. I told you what you wanted to hear. You didn't want to hear about what made me happy. All these things, and this cabin, make me happy. I found this place about ten years ago, right after I left the fruit-picking job. I met Marsha when she found me starving in the woods behind her place. She took me in and treated me like a daughter. Her sons treated me like a sister. They knew I had been hurt, but they didn't push. Every time a nightmare would come, she would be there for me. She gave me this place, saying it would be my safe home, that no evil would ever come to me here. I only stayed for a few weeks, but I felt safe. Then I got a call from Gaston and he asked where I was. It seems my friends had called them, telling him I was on my way. He never knew about this place. It was my own. I never had anything that was all my own that wasn't taken away.” She stood. “I'm glad you got to see it. Maybe just for this night you can see me.” Jaycee turned away, going into the kitchen and switching on her stereo as she went by it. She recognized a favorite CD and laughed. Marsha even knew what music she wanted to listen to.
Jaycee had started washing her dishes when Remi came in, handing her his dish. “It was good.” He grabbed a dish towel and started to dry the dishes as Mark and Dane came in, also handing her their dishes. They all stood in the kitchen as she cleaned her kitchen.
“I'd like to meet this woman who helped you,” Remi said, taking a clean plate from her.
“You will tomorrow. She's always right. She said in the note she left me that there is going to be a bad snowstorm. So we're going to be stuck here for a little while. She even knew about the baby.” Jaycee laughed, shaking her head. “You know, I would like her to be there when we do have our bonding ceremony, if possible. She and her family have been precious to me. If it's allowed.” She looked up at Remi.
“I don't know,” he said. “Bringing outsiders into our world, it's risky.”
Jaycee did understand this and nodded, but hated it all the same. She let the water out of the sink and dried her hands. She walked back into the living room and sat back on the floor, curling up in a blanket Marsha had made for her. Remi pulled her into his lap in front of the fire.
“So, tell us about some of these things,” Remi said, rubbing her arms she laid her head back against him.
“I have some things of Dane's here. When I visited with my father a long time ago, I noticed his high school jacket lying there on the floor. I took it. I slept with it many nights. It was one of the things I took with me when I left home.” Jaycee pointed over to the far wall. Dane turned, noticing the jacket. He got up and touched it.
“You kept this all these years?” he asked in awe.
Jaycee shrugged her shoulders. “I knew you were my mate, Dane. I loved you then. It was the one of the things that kept me going. I am afraid it has a lot of tearstains on it and it's worn in some spots, but it was a part of you. I never dreamed I would get a chance with you after Curt. I also think I have something of Mark's.” Jaycee stood and moved to the dresser in the dining room to pull out an old baseball hat. She carried it to Mark, handing it to him and sitting back down in Remi's lap, pulling the blanket around her.
“I can't believe you have this,” Mark said. “I searched for weeks for this, and I accused Dane of giving it away. He accused me of stealing his coat.”
Jaycee shrugged her shoulders. “I don't know how to explain it, but I needed it.” She paused. Oh, I remembered something else last week. When I was about five my father went up to Michigan to the northern packs up there. He took me with him to one of the houses. A lady was having a garage sale. My dad gave me a dollar to buy something. But when I was rummaging through the toys a boy came running around the corner and knocked me over. I ended up hitting my head on the concrete and blood was coming down. I was screaming when another older boy came running around the corner. He picked me up, wiping the blood from my face, and he told me to say there when he went…”
“Wait, I remember this,” Remi said. “I went into the house and got you something to drink and my old teddy bear. I gave it to you that day. I remember you stopped crying. You hugged that thing like it was your lifeline.” Remi shook his head, laughing.
Jaycee got up again and ran upstairs, coming back down carrying the worn-out teddy bear. She smiled at Remi and handed him the teddy bear as she sat down next to him.
“So you see, everything in this house has a special meaning to me.” She took the teddy from Remi and curled up with it. “I'd like to get this all cleaned up and sewn up. I want to give it to our child,” Jaycee whispered, looking at Remi. He smiled, pulling her into his arms and kissing her neck.
“I'd like that to. I hate to say it, but I'm glad we're here tonight with you. Maybe we can come back here for visits. Make this our retreat,” Remi whispered into her ear.
A large cat roared outside the cabin. Remi placed her on the floor, standing up, as did Dane and Mark. Then there was knocking on the door. Jaycee went to open the door, but Remi grabbed her around the waist and held her back.
“You don't know who's out there.”
“Yes, I do. I can smell him. It's Marsha's oldest son.” Jaycee slipped out of his arms, and went to open the door. She looked up to a smiling face before she jumped into his arms, hugging him tight.
“God, I missed you, Bo.”
Her mates growled behind her. She rolled her eyes at Bo, who put her down beside him.
“Me too, munchkin. Now let me in out of this snow and introduce me to your mates,” Bo said, guiding her back into the cabin and shutting the door behind him.
“How did you know they're my mates?” She frowned, trying to think if she mentioned anything.
“Don't think so hard. We've always known you're part wolf. Our cat form can smell it on you.”
“You mean you're shifter cats? What kind of cats? Can I see?” Jaycee asked, excited. He laughed at her and shifted to his leopard form. Jaycee walked up to him, petting him. He was beautiful and big. His head bumped her hand and she laughed. She looked up at Remi and Dane to find them frowning again. “What's wrong now?”
Bo shifted back to his human form, with clothes.
“Okay, I want to learn to do that. I can't stand shifting and being naked. Everyone stares,” Jaycee said.
Bo hugged her. “We'll see. I'll talk to Mom and see if it's okay to show you. Now introduce your mates to me so they don't bite my head off.” He swatted her ass and nudged her forward.
Jaycee introduced her mates, but they stayed quiet.
“Okay, Dane, why are you guys so quiet?” she asked as she sat back down near the fire. Her mates never took their eyes off Bo.
“It's unusual for another shifter species to take in a different one. We're just trying to figure out why they would take you in and treat you like family,” Remi said.
“Our family is different from normal shape shifters,” Bo said. “My mom is also a witch. We were outcasts at first until I challenged the alpha of our pack and won. But when I found Jaycee in the woods that day, I knew I couldn't leave her there. There was so much pain in her eyes. My mother fell in love with her right away when I brought her home. My mom had six boys and not one girl. She longed for a daughter and, well, Jaycee is her daughter. Jaycee doesn't know it yet, but Mom is going to talk to her tomorrow about learning the ways of the witch. She wants to pass on her knowledge to her since there are no females in our family, but her.”
Bo went to the door. “Jaycee, I want you to stay inside tonight. Jack is out there somewhere,” he said, looking at the door.
“Well, why didn't you bring him with you? You're hardly ever apart.”
“You don't understand,” Bo said. “He's furious right now with you. For some strange reason he always believed you were his. He knows now that's not the case, but it hurt him. He smells that you're mated and it's driving him crazy. Even though he has a mate, it still hurts him. He'll calm down tonight, but just stay inside for now.”
Jaycee looked down at the flo
or. “I didn't know. I'm sorry, Bo. It seems I bring trouble where ever I go.” Jaycee turned to go to her room when Bo stopped her, pulling her into his arms.
“Little sister, you did nothing, but be your kind self. How could anyone not love you? He'll be fine. He has his mate waiting for him. Now go on and go to bed.”
She knew he wanted to talk to her mates so she excused herself from the room, walking up the stairs to the loft where her bedroom was. She slipped off her clothes, used the bathroom, and climbed into bed.
Eventually the bang of the door indicated Bo had left. She waited for her mates and she didn't have to wait long. All three of them came up the stairs, looking around her room.
“This is incredible, Jaycee,” Dane said, looking around the room. She sat up, smiling at him.
“Before I left, I told Marsha about my dream room and they did this for me while I was gone. Isn't it great? She incorporated my love for certain things. See those fairies behind you? I used to have tons of them. I collected them when I was small, but my mother went into a rage one night when dad left, and broke everyone except the few I hid from her. I loved dolphins too, so Bo painted that wall for me. It relaxes me so much just to look at it when I try to sleep.” Jaycee pulled the covers up over her, looking at her mates. “You see, I know it will take a while for each of us to get to really know each other, but all I wanted was to share some part of me with you. I needed that. I know I'm different, but every once in a while, all I want is to be held and to be loved.” Jaycee whispered the last part, watching her mates strip out of their clothes. They were breathtaking–so strong, muscular, and handsome.
Dane crawled into bed, pulling the blankets from her, and taking in her naked body. “I need you, baby, and we do love you. We may forget to show you, but we do love you,” he whispered into her ear as he kissed her neck, licked her neck. His mouth moved over every inch of her body as he slowly worshiped her.
She watched Mark and Remi. Mark was on his knees sucking Remi's cock, while Remi watched her. He had hold of Mark's head, urging him on. Jaycee had never seen something so beautiful.
Dane turned and looked at Remi, grinning. “You like what you see?” he whispered to her as he turned, staring at her face. Jaycee couldn't form words. Her body was in flames. She could only nod.
“Mark, is Remi's bond partner,” Dane whispered as he pushed her legs apart and attacked her clit. She jumped and pushed her body toward his face. He slid his fingers into her pussy and stretched her.
Jaycee tried to yank him up to her, but he wouldn't have it, “Dane, I need you,” she begged.
“Not yet, baby. Come for me. I want to feast on your juices.” He growled, pushing his whole hand into her pussy, stroking her walls. He pulled her clit into her mouth and sucked hard at the same time his fingers stroked her special spot.
Jaycee would have jumped off the bed, but he held her down with his other hand as her orgasm rolled over her. She screamed as Dane sucked her juices from her body. She looked up, Remi was fucking Mark's ass, stroking Mark's cock as he did it. Mark's eyes rolled back into his head as he groaned.
Dane bit down on her thigh, surprising her. “Your attention is needed here, baby.” He raised his body, pulling her legs over his shoulders, and rammed his cock into her pussy. Jaycee grabbed onto the blankets, holding on, knowing it was going to get wild.
“You're ours, only ours.” He slammed into her over and over. His cock pushed into her, hitting her cervix, but it wasn't enough. “Mark, get your ass over here. She needs us both.” He lowered her legs, falling down on the bed next to her and pulling her body on top of his. His cock slid back into her pussy as he opened her ass cheeks. Mark moved in behind her and pushed his cock into her ass.
“I need hard, more!” she screamed as they pumped into her.
Remi washed his cock after peeling the condom off it. He knelt on the bed in front of her and Dane, shoving his cock into her mouth. All three of them worked her body.
Mark slapped her ass, Dane pinched her breasts, and Remi tugged on her head, forcing her to take his cock. All of three of them tightened their muscles, ready to explode, when Dane reached down between their bodies, and pinched her clit.
She screamed around Remi's cock, her orgasm moved over her, as his seed slid into her mouth. Her other two mates released their seed into her body at the same time.
Jaycee sucked the rest of Remi's seed down her throat, then collapsed onto Dane. She couldn't move. She was totally exhausted. Dane ran his hands up and down her back, while Mark slipped out of her ass. He got up off the bed, walking to the bathroom, searching for a washcloth.
“It's in the bottom drawer near the wall,” she whispered, but he heard her, finding one and bringing it back to clean her body. Dane's cock still buried inside her and she could feel him. He was still hard as a rock. Jaycee peeked up at him and he grinned. “We're not done.” He slipped out of her and laid her on her stomach as he lay on top of her. Spreading her legs from behind, he pushed his cock back into her.
Jaycee moaned as he slowly made love to her. He picked her body up and pulled her back into a sitting position. Her back against his chest, he spread her legs out behind her as far as they could go. He pushed into her and grabbed her breasts.
Remi crawled in front of her, staring at her for a minute before falling down to her clit, and sucking it into his mouth. He traced Dane's cock with his finger as it slid into her pussy. Sometimes he would push a finger into her pussy when Dane would push his cock in, stretching her more. Both she and Dane would moan at the same time. It was so erotic and she loved it.
Remi pushed two fingers into her and squeezed Dane's cock at the same time. They both howled their release as their orgasms took control of their bodies. Remi pulled his fingers out, sitting up and smiling at them both. Dane shook his head, grinning like a banshee.
“Okay, that was something. Have any other tricks up your sleeve?” Jaycee whispered as she crawled to lie down on the bed, but Remi was on her fast, shoving his cock into her already soaked pussy.
“Oh, baby, I have many more surprises for you.” He slammed into her pussy. Jaycee groaned, lifting her body and shoving it back into his. She couldn't believe she wanted more, but she did. Remi pushed two fingers into her ass as he worked her pussy. His other hand reached around and pushed two more fingers into her pussy, stretching her further.
“Remi!” she screamed, the third orgasm roared through her body. Remi stiffened and releasing his seed.
“Okay, now I'm totally exhausted, thank you very much.” Jaycee collapsed onto the bed as Dane and Remi curled up next to her. She looked over at Mark. He hugged Remi and smiled at her. She smiled up at him, rubbing his arm. She closed her eyes as her mates continued to pet her, falling into a deep sleep.
Chapter Seven
Jaycee awoke to a big bang outside. She jumped up along with her mates. The sun was just peeking into the window. She could see the ice and snow falling hard. They all got up, looking out of the bedroom window. Lying across both of their cars was a huge tree branch covered in ice.
“Well, just fucking great. That's a rental and it's under my alias. Shit!” Jaycee yelled, grabbing her robe off the hook on the wall and heading down the stairs, her mates following behind her. Jaycee tried to pull open the front door, but it wouldn't budge.
She turned to Remi. “Okay, he-man. Time to do some work.” Remi grunted as she stepped out of the way.
He pulled at the door and finally it broke free, opening. Ice covered the door. Jaycee peeked around Remi, groaning at what she saw. Ice and fresh snow covered the ground. There had to be at least two feet of snow and ice on the ground. Both cars were totaled.
“Now what am I going to do? I don't have insurance or that kind of money to replace it. Shit!” She went to the kitchen, starting some decaf coffee. She felt Dane come up behind her, wrapping his arms around her.
“Don't worry about it. We'll take care of it, baby. Didn't you know you're mated to a very we
althy wolf?” he whispered into her ear, biting it.
“Hey, that hurt.” She elbowed him in the stomach, and turned in his arms, wrapping her arms around him. “I didn't mate with you because you're loaded. I have to take care of it. It's my problem,” Jaycee whispered, kissing his chest.
“Baby, what's ours is yours. You know that, right? You're our family. We'll take care of it.”
Jaycee sighed. She had no choice. Her money was running low. “Dane, I want to find a job. I want to have my own money so I can buy Christmas presents, things like that,” she said, looking up into his face.
“You'll have a big job. There is a lot to do as pack alpha bitch. You have two packs to organize, plan our events, and our homes. Remi and I have already set up two accounts up for you to use as you see fit. One will be for the pack, and the other is for you personally. Plus, we've added you to all our accounts. You're our wife. How could we not?” He kissed her nose.
“Hey, we have company coming. I hear dog sleds,” Remi shouted from the living room.
“That's going to be Marsha, better go get dressed.” Jaycee ran up the stairs, her mate following, and they pulled on their jeans and shirts. When she heard the knock on the door, Jaycee ran down the stairs, excited.
“Slow down, you're pregnant,” Remi warned, coming down the stairs behind her.
Jaycee threw open the door. Marsha, Bo, and her other sons all stood there. Jaycee stepped back, letting them all in.
“Where's papa?” Jaycee asked when they were in the cabin.
“Some of the pack is having trouble with the ice so he volunteered to go and help. I'm going to meet him in a couple of hours, but we wanted to make sure you were okay.” Bo pointed outside. “It looks like the cars took the worst out there. The weather stations are predicting this to be one of the worst storms of the year. It looks like you're going to be here a couple of days.” Bo grabbed a chair from the dining room and sat.
“Oh crap, I'm being rude.” Jaycee said, introducing all the brothers and Marsha. She hugged Marsha tight. “I missed you. Did you get all my letters?” Jaycee went into the kitchen, grabbing the coffee and cups for everyone.
