Chapter 94
Everyone yelled at the same time, but all she focused on was the jerk wanting to hurt her brother. She bit down on his ear, not sure why the taste of his blood didn’t disgust her or why she felt so much aggression.
“Stop, Dani. I need you to let Liam go.”
She heard Blake say the words clearly inside her head. As if he’d whispered them by her ear.
“No way. He’s just going to go for Marcos again.”
“He won’t. I promise. He’s one of our enforcers and he was only trying to protect Kane when Marcos hit him.”
They continued their telepathic conversation while she bit down on the other wolf. There was a need to fight inside her. To show the other wolf that she was not going to allow him to hurt her family.
“Screw him. Doesn’t he know friends fight?”
She continued to claw at the bigger wolf’s side.
He shook her off, finally getting her off him. She landed on her ass and got back up, ready to run for the animal again. He bared his teeth, waiting for her attack.
“Stand down, Dani. You’ve proven to them that you’re more than able to help us defend our pack.”
Defend the pack? What was he talking about? She’d been defending her brother.
The wolf lowered his head, slowly creeping away from her.
“There. I’ve sent him away. Come back to us.”
She glanced up to where Marcos stood with a trench coat in hand, the front door thrown open behind him.
“I don’t know how to change back.”
“It’s easy, darling. Just tell the wolf you’re in charge and visualize your human body,” Kane said out loud.
She did that. Bones popped and fur receded. She glanced at her hands and she was back in her curvy body. A very naked curvy body.
Kane helped her put on the trench coat so quickly she didn’t get a chance to feel embarrassed over being seen naked by so many people.
She glanced around and noticed the other people had gone, along with the wolf she’d been fighting. Tom lay on the ground, his eyes closed.
“What happened to him?” she asked, clearing her dry throat.
Marcos glared at Tom’s body. “He passed out when he saw you change.”
He walked over to her slowly, his gaze studying her face with concern. “Are you okay?”
She could more than see his fear for her, she scented it. The amount of concern he had for her was dizzying. She smiled and threw her arms around his neck, hoping to soothe some of his anxiety.
“I’m great, Marcos.”
“You’re sure?” His voice trembled with unease.
“Yes.” She moved back to stand between her men. “I’m happy.”
Marcos glared at both men and then sighed, his shoulders drooping. “If that’s the case then I’m happy for you. I just don’t want you to get hurt.”
Kane spoke up, “We would never allow anyone to hurt her.”
“Good. Because if she ever tells me either of you did something to her, I will come hunt you both down.”
She grinned. Marcos would never stop being overprotective.
“Fair enough,” Blake said. “Are you okay with this, now?”
Marcos eyed Tom. “At least you two don’t faint at the sight of someone shifting.”
He grinned and winked at her. “Keep my sister happy and I’ll be okay with you for the foreseeable future.”
“Can we go inside now?” she asked. “I’d like to put some clothes on.”
“But why?” Blake laughed. “You look so delicious naked.”
“Woah!” Marcos yelled, shoving Blake out of the way and heading inside the house. “Not what I want to hear. Ever.”
Life as a human or a shifter was never easy. Not when surrounded by Alpha males. She smiled and loved the new connection she felt between her, Blake, and Kane. It was amazing to have such a depth of emotion going through them.
That evening, they made a call together.
“Hello?”
“Hi, Gerri.”
“Daniella!” Gerri said with excitement. “How have you enjoyed mated life?”
Boy, news traveled fast.
“Great. It’s wonderful.” She leaned into Blake’s side and rested her feet over Kane’s. “We just wanted to thank you for your help.”
“We?”
“Yes,” Blake and Kane said.
“Ahh. The hardheaded wolves. You know, Kane, your mother owes me dinner.”
He frowned. “She does?”
She laughed, the tinkling sound clear across the line. “Yes. She bet me I couldn’t get the three of you to mate without you both realizing it was Dani.”
“Well you did an amazing job of keeping her scent a secret the first day,” Blake said.
“I know. And no, I won’t tell you how. But I am very happy you three have found happiness. You are happy, aren’t you Daniella?”
Dani glanced from one man to the other and grinned. “I’m very happy.”
They hung up the call and she casually decided to let her feelings out in the open.
“I love you, big sexy, Omega,” she said, pulling Blake’s face to hers and meshing their lips in a quick kiss. Then she tugged Kane over and kissed him. “I love you, big, sexy Alpha.”
“I love you too,” they both said at the same time.
She sighed and eyed the remote control Kane had in hand. “So...wanna shut the TV off and get freaky?”
The TV went off before she got a chance to finish the question.
