Discovering My Heritage

Chapter 6

August-(pov)

I love my job as a detective. I thought I was perfectly happy with my mate Phoebe.  That is until two days ago. When I met the social worker sent to assist me on a case.

First impressions Gabe is an average height man with olive skin who wears his hair pulled back. He dresses professionally and seems very polite and competent in his field.

When I shook his hand I felt an immediate connection to him. It turns out so did Phoebe. When they hugged during their introduction. She has always been a hugger. 

This morning the meeting with Alpha Gordon was very informative. It turns out that Gabe is the reason the orphanages are being targeted. He is beyond special.

  He is now the center of my investigation. He needs my personal protection. I also found out he is mated to me and Phoebe.

I understand she is a wear wolf. However if she scares him off. I will be pissed. She has been controlling and pushy.

She has already upset him. To the point he has threatened to stay with his friend instead of his mates. I love her. However I feel like he fills the empty void I have been feeling. 

I walk downstairs. Phoebe is cleaning up the coffee and tea from earlier.  I ask if she needs help. She shakes her head no.  She then asks how Gabe is doing.

  He is fine. He unpacked a few of his things into drawers. I will take that as a good sign. When I left him. He was going to shower and nap. 

He did inquire if we should mate before or after meeting your father the alpha. I feel he should meet your family as your mate.  Before we actually mate.

  I guess August. I just want him badly. Phoebe you or your wolf?

  We do not want him to feel pressured. I think if we wait. He will feel safer and more comfortable with us.  You read the letter. You know how much is at risk here. 

  You are right August. I just feel like you two are close already.  I am going to be pushed away.

  Phoebe that is one of his fears. That he will come between us. This is new it will take time. 

  Also once the threat is taken care of. Maybe it will be good to keep his place. We can take turns spending some one on one time with him. Where he is most comfortable.

That might be a good idea August. I am going to finish tidying up. I will order the Thai food in about an hour.  I texted my dad about dinner tomorrow and meeting him in his office afterwards.

  He said no problem. I told him that it involves your coworker. Who needs some protection. 

That he is currently staying with us. I did not mention him being our mate or his other form. Sounds good Phoebe.

Phoebe I will be in my office working on this case. I go sit in my comfortable work chair behind my old fashioned desk. I wish we had a lead. I do not think it is Gabe's family. They knew which orphanage he was in.

  They also would of known about the letters and who to contact. I have to believe that it is someone that wants him for his powers or to breed him. That makes my blood boil.

No one besides Phoebe and I will ever touch him in that way again. Actually we have not had that discussion. I am not sure if he has dated or been sexually active. 

  I know he is twenty two and was raised an orphan.  Obviously Phoebe and I have been together for four years. We have had a pretty active sex life.

We recently had the discussion that we were surprised. We have not conceived a child yet.  Now it makes sense. Sometimes when there is a triad relationship.

  All three need to be mated for one to conceive. I hope that is it. I would love to see Phoebe or Gabe round with our children. 

I really can not wait to be mated. I am hoping the dinner and meeting go well tomorrow night. If it does maybe we can complete the mating process afterwards. 

Tomorrow we are going to follow up with some of the orphanages that have been targeted. I want to see if we missed any evidence or if anyone remembers anything at all. 

Next thing I know Phoebe is knocking on my door. Hey August want to go wake up Gabe. Food should be here soon. I will set the table and put out some drinks. Sure Phoebes, no problem. 

I go to Gabe's room and knock.  It is quiet and he does not answer. I knock again harder and call out his name. 

  There still is no response. I decide to open the door slowly and peek in. He is sprawled out like a star fish across the bed. He is to cute.

  I walk over to him and shake his foot. He groans and rolls over. I laugh and shake him harder. Finally he opens his eyes slowly.

  It takes him a minute to remember where he is at. Soon as he realizes it. He looks at me. Hey Gabe dinner is on its way.

  Ok August, I will meet you in the dining room he says. I am going to use the restroom. Then I will be there.
