The Mate

Chapter Twenty Nine

Melody looked at both of her men.

"You really want me to rate the both of you?"

They nodded their heads.

"Okay, fine." she rolled her eyes. "Both of you were amazing."

"No, that doesn't count." Ethan said. "We need a serious answer."

"That was a serious answer. I really feel like both of you are tied. Alex knows what I like and you know, you do things differently. You make my body burn with fire while Alex leaves me feeling lite."

"So, who is better?" Alex asked again.

"Baby, I'm serious. Both of you are amazing in your own way." She patted both of their thighs and sat up. "Now, it's time for a body massage since you two wanted to abuse me." she laughed and laid on her stomach. "You may begin." she told them.

"She's your wife." Ethan told Alex.

"But she's our mate." he retorted. Shrugging they both began rubbing her body down with some lotion.

"Mmm." she moaned.

"Don't you start it." Ethan began.

"She does this every time. Get used to it. But when she wants a back rub that's all she wants. And she will let you know that's what she wants."

She laid there loving every second their hands were on her body, on her muscles. She laid there taking in all the pleasure they were giving her. She began to drift off to sleep. Her eyes closed slowly; she listened to Ethan and Alex bicker back and forth.

Alex saw her eyes close and tapped on Ethan's hand. He pointed to Melody's face. Grabbing a blanket Alex put it over Melody's body. He sat back against the headboard and watched her sleep.

"I don't think she will want to marry me." Ethan told her.

"What?"

"Yeah, I don't think she will want to marry me. She has you as her husband, she has me as her mate."

"We are both her mates. She may surprise you." Alex looked over to Ethan. He saw his naked body and couldn't believe he was in bed with someone who used to be his enemy. Naked at that. "Just like we've been at each other's throats our whole lives and here we are, naked in bed together with our mate."

"Yeah," Ethan laughed. "Yeah, I wasn't expecting to just have a threesome with my number one enemy but love makes you do crazy things." They stayed quiet as they watched her sleep.

"Damn man," Alex started.

"What?" Ethan asked.

"She's so fucking beautiful."

"Yeah, yeah she is."

They watched her back rise and fall with her deep breaths. Her white hair made a big contrast against her tanned skin. Alex stood up and walked to the closet when he came out of the closet he threw a pair of boxer briefs to Ethan.

"I'm tired of looking at your tiny dick."

"Tiny my ass." he pushed back. "Bigger than yours."

Alex laughed. "You wish."

"You're the same size." Melody said under her breath to them.

They jerked their heads to the bed. "I didn't know you were awake."

"I'm not." she told them. They looked at one another and rolled their eyes.

"Well, while you're not awake I'm going to go to the war room and see what we can do about joining our packs and finding your parents." Alex kissed her forehead. "E, if you wanna come you can, or you can hang here with Mel."

"I'll go with you. Get a fill of what's going on here and see how we are going to work this out."

Melody heard them walk out and the door shut. This was probably going to work to her advantage more than she thought. Closing her eyes once more she drifted off to sleep.

****************************************************************************************************

Everything was falling apart. Nothing was going to plan. He had to find a way to get them to hate each other again. Melody was ruining everything. What was he going to do? He couldn't have the two largest packs fighting over this one girl. He was going to have to do something.

He sat in his chair, hands crossed over his laps. He looked down at the table, not knowing what to do. How was he going to do this? How was he going to make this work? He had to end this.

"What now boss?" a voice spoke.

"We will have to do something... something." he didn't have the words. He didn't have the knowledge. He rubbed his temple. He was getting another headache. He had one every day since the damn fire. He had one every day since it all went wrong. He had one every day since he failed his job.

"Like what Boss?" another voice spoke.

He looked up to the voice. "I'm thinking."

"Well, you've been thinking for the past two months. It's been two months since they announced they were joining the two clans." a female voice spoke up. She was irritated. "How much longer do we have to wait on the sidelines?"

"Boss?"

"I don't know what to do with this damn headache and you all aren't helping it." he almost screamed out. He huffed out a deep breath.

Rubbing both temples this time, he felt hands come around his shoulders and rub them. The tension began to fade away. His head fog slowly drifted into nothingness.

"Thank you." he patted the hands on his shoulders. "Now that I can think, I have an idea." He heard the murmuring around the room come to a stop.

"We will have to do something risky for this to work out." he put his hands together on his lap. "I don't want this to happen. I don't want these two clans coming together. The only way that is going to happen- the only way to stop this is to capture and kill Melody Riverwood."
