Bound by Spirit - Completed

16. The Answer

Gray, Ian and Van stayed up most of the night Friday discussing what they had learned so far about their mate and the implications in the paintings and sketches that they had seen. They also knew that in order to keep her from harm they had to put aside their individual desires and do what was best for her in this situation. To do that they decided to ask her to date all three of them and they would let it be up to her if she wanted to get to know them all, or choose which one or two she wanted to pursue. None of them will ever give up though and knew that no matter what she chose they would stay in her life in whatever capacity she would allow. If she ever said that she never wanted to see them again, it would break their hearts but they would still keep watch over her from afar to keep her from harm. They already felt a deep connection and love for Wren and knew that their lives would be empty and pointless without her presence. It was unexpected how fast this want had changed to need and lust to love.

Normally the mating bond starts out as instant lust and the love has to grow over time. There have been some cases where the mated couple never does find love with the other person. You would think that being mated would mean utmost compatibility but when the souls of the two are mated is at the birth of the youngest member of the union and circumstances, events and decisions made during the time that passes between the birth and the meeting can change the character of one or both people to a point where love cannot thrive. They knew that, on their parts anyway, that this would not happen to them. The love they felt for Wren was all encompassing and they hoped that she would be willing to give them a chance to show her that love and to one day return those feelings to them.

The next morning they waited eagerly for her call or text letting them know where to meet her. Hoping with all that was in them that she wouldn't change her mind. At 10:08 AM the highly anticipated chime came from Grayven's phone letting them know he had received a text. With their mind link left wide open since their reconciliation last night they all could see, hear and feel what the others were and all let out a relieved sigh and happy smiles at her message letting them know that she was on her way.

THE BROTHERS' POV

Gray hurriedly replied and we quickly got in the Hummer and on our way to the park she told us about. Once parked in the empty lot we let her know we were there and waited for her arrival. We could feel her approach as she got closer and as soon as we saw her beautiful form we got out of the car with beaming grins on our faces. She seemed a bit hesitant in her gate but as soon as she looked up at us she gracefully yet rapidly made her way to us. She stopped so close that our skin almost touched but then she took a small step back. Instinctively we reached towards her to bring her into our arms but quickly retracted our hands so as not to startle her.

Her opal like eyes took us in as the light breeze gently blew a few loose tendrils of her dark brown hair about her flawless oval face. In the sunlight we could see all the facets of her silky hair that was mostly contained in a braid with the tail end laying enticingly across and past her plump breasts. While the base shade of her hair was a dark earthy brown there were strands of deep red, black and small streaks of violet red. Her skin was luminescent with its smooth, creamy color and texture. Her dark eyebrows perfectly arched leading to a straight nose that drew your eyes directly to the sexiest pillow like lips that we had ever seen. Those delicious looking lips that we wanted to kiss, opened to let out the sweet and melodic voice of our Wren breathing out a "Hi." All three of us responded simultaneously with a "Good Morning Wren."

We could hear her heart speed up and saw her breath catch as her aura colors flashed with the pink of desire. It pleased us greatly to know that our voice had such an effect on her. We could barely restrain the urge to touch her but when we caught the scent of her honeyed arousal we could no longer refrain. Ian growled deep in his chest but contained it as best he could to keep from scaring her. Ian and Van each grabbed a hand as Grey cupped the delicate cheek in front of him. Her face fit perfectly in his hand. The combined pleasure of touching her soft skin, hearing her beautiful heartbeat and voice that called to our souls, seeing her perfect face and form that brought out our lust and smelling her delicious scent that was growing more potent every moment was almost overpowering. Then from deep in her throat came a seductive and alluring moan of pleasure that almost brought us to our knees and made our cocks harder and thicker than we ever thought possible. Her delightful blush overtook her ivory skin traveling down her neck and under her sweater making us wonder where it ended. Did her luscious breast take on that rosy hue?
