The Mate

Chapter Twenty Seven

Alex had been waiting what felt like years for her to come home to him. When he felt her coming closer and closer to him through their bond he started getting anxious. He was beyond ready for his wife, Luna, mate to be home.

He saw the car begin to pull up and ran down to the front door. Walking down to the car he stood waiting for to come to him. As soon as he saw her sexy tanned leg step out the door he lost it and ran to her. Practically dragging his wife out of the car; pulling her into his arms.

Lifting her mouth to his, he kissed her. Picking her up making sure her legs were wrapped around him he sank into the kiss. One hand under her butt the other on the back of her neck kissing her as his life depended on it. He licked her mark then sucked on it. He felt himself growing hard for her.

"Let's go to the room." he whispered in her ear. "Now.'' He began walking her to the house.

"Wait," she told him. He stopped. "We have to talk." she wiggled down to the ground and pointed to Ethan.

"Ugh, why? This can't wait?" he asked her.

"No, this has to be spoken about. Like, now."

"Fine." he grabbed her hand and waved a hand at Ethan to follow them. Instead of going to their room he went to the war room. Pushing the door open he took a seat and pulled Melody to his lap.

"What needs to be said?" He asked Ethan.

"She wants me as her mate too."

Alex growled slowly. "Stop," she told him. "I do and I don't. We did have sex."

He growled again. "And?" he asked.

"It was nice." she turned to face him. Her legs on either side of him.

"Nice?" Ethan questioned.

She turned her face to him and smirked. "Yes, it was nice." turning back to her husband she kissed him. "But it was nothing like ours." she began grinding her hips on him. "Absolutely nothing like ours." she sucked on his neck and he hissed. She felt Alex growing hard under her. "Fuck." she whined when his hand found her center.

"Stop." Ethan said behind her. Alex only looked at Ethan.

"I'm sorry you can't satisfy her." he smirked.

"Don't be ugly." she told him in a rasp. She grabbed his hand to stop him. "I needed to let you know that I want you both and that you both will have to deal with it."

"Okay." Alex said slowly. "Is this what you really want?" He grabbed her face to study it.

"I really think I do. I think this would be cool."

"Okay, then-" he stopped and looked at Ethans face. "I'm not kissing him." Ethan laughed.

"You wouldn't even be able to handle me anyway."

Alex rolled his eyes at him. Ignoring him, Alex went back to paying attention to Melody. "I'm ready for you." He pushed up against him.

"Mmm, yes." she got off him. "Wait no. There is more. You sit there." she pointed to Alex. "You, there." she pointed to Ethan then the seat beside Alex.

When each of her mates were sitting down she began. "I'm your wife and mate. We aren't anything." she pointed between herself and Ethan. "I've enjoyed the time that I have had with you but I want to make you my mate. I want to mark you. And I want you to mark me." Ethan smirked.

"I can do that." he reached out to her.

"No touching." she warned him. "I can't focus when you men touch me." she pushed the hair behind her ears. "I need you to apologize for what you've done to my pack. You hurt my pack and my husband. Not only that. I can't stay here for a couple of weeks and then your pack for a couple of weeks. That isn't going to work out."

"You're my wife. You're staying with me." Alex spoke.

"She's my mate. She is staying with me."

"No, I'm not staying at either place." They both looked at her with quizzical faces. She sat down on her knees in front of them.

"This is what is going to happen." she spoke clearly. "Or this is at least something I want to happen. If it can't happen then I understand, but we need to talk about some stuff."

"What does this deal with? Are you okay?" Alex asked her.

"Yes, but truthfully I know I want both of you and this is going to make me sound like a complete whore because I didn't think that I would end up being in an open relationship." she laughed and threw her hands up. "I also never would've imagined that I would be a freaking wolf either. A special wolf at that."

"Wait, what do you mean a special wolf?"

"Well, I am-was a 'White'. You were right about that; but I'm apparently a legit white wolf. Hence my hair. It turned this color on my twenty-first birthday. I am trying to find out more about my pack but I haven't had much luck on it."

"Oh, well," Ethan spoke up. "I can help you with that. I have some ... connections."

"That sounds a little suspicious." Alex joked.

"Well, I have enough help in places to know that just a few people survived."

"What?" Melody asked. "Who? Where? How?"

"I can tell you about this all when you tell us what is wrong and what you've been thinking about?" Ethan held her hands. "Because to tell you the truth, I'm ready to mark my mate."

"Oh, yeah, right. So, I was thinking that maybe we could... you know- possibly... join?"

"Join?" they both questioned.

"As in we come together as one pack." she said. She stood up and began pacing the room. "Think about it. Two of the biggest clans come together in a neutral area and we combine my two packs. We three rule over them both. And as I was on the way to Ethan's I noticed that my pack is between the both of yours."

"What used to be the White Clan." Ethan reminded her.

"Well, we will find out where my pack is and how they are faring out. I need to find them. I am the Princess after all."

"Hold up." Ethan raised his hands. "You're her?" he asked. Alex and Mel both nodded their heads. "And you knew?" he asked Alex. Alex nodded. "And you didn't tell me." he accused Melody.

"There's a reason you weren't told." she told him. "I was scared of you. I didn't know you. I didn't know what you were capable of. You came in here all angry and jumpy. How would you have felt if the roles were reversed?"

He opened his mouth to say something then closed it. She was right. He did go in there being very aggressive and he knew she wasn't going to like that. He shrugged his shoulders.

"So," Alex went to Melody. "I will do anything that you want me to do for you. You know that my love. Tell me what you want."

"Like I've said, I want you both. I want to be marked by both of you. I want to join our packs. I want to find out what happened to my parents."

"I can help with two of those." Ethan told her coming up behind her, wrapping his arms around her. "I can make sure you get marked by me."

A purr came from her. "Yes." she rasped. Alex got pleasure from watching his wife.

"Alex, I want you to watch." she said. It surprised herself when it came out.

"Anything you want my love." He told her. "But, let's move this to our room. I can have a larger bed to accommodate us three when Ethan is here."

"I will do the same." Ethan said. "I may not have cared for you before Alpha Alex, but I am going to do anything for my mate."

"Alpha Ethan, this is going to be one hell of a life." they shook hands before turning it into a hug.

"I'm still not kissing you." Alex told Ethan. They both laughed and agreed that kissing was one thing they weren't going to do.

"That's settled. Now, take me to our room so I can be marked and fucked." she told them. Ethan picked her up while Alex showed him the way.
