The Prey

Chapter 21

                                                                      Skye's POV (Jackson above)

    We looked around for a few moments but we ended up going upstairs because we where all very hungry. I finished dinner while Skyler set the table. All the sudden Brett yelled Rouge in the mind link. I damn near spilled the potatoes all over the floor and I heard a glass object break in the dining room. Jaxon flew out the door to help Brett. The weirdest feeling came over me as Skyler came into the kitchen. Like I had to go outside. So I grabbed Skyler's hand and ran for the door and outside into the dark.

  Skyler never questioned me. We both ran towards the sound of growling. I saw three wolves. My heart stopped when I looked at a black wolf with violet eyes. We both felt that instant connection to him. "Shift Jackson, then come in for dinner" I said as I turned to go back to the house. Skyler followed and set an extra plate. We both watched with general curiosity as our brother walked through the door. He had a tiny blonde woman with scared green eyes and a very big belly. He was also carrying a three year old boy in his long muscular arms. He had black hair and the same eye color as us.

   "Who are you people, how do you know my name and why are you in my parents pack house" his voice boomed. 

   "I am Skye and this is my sister Skyler, Please lets sit down and eat. Your family looks very hungry" I simply stated.

   Jackson looked at us with an unreadable face. Would he believe we are the sisters he thought long dead. He placed his hand on the small of the woman's back to lead her to the table while Skyler went to get a few more plates and cups. Jaxon and Brett helped me bring out dinner. It smelled so freaking good I could see Skyler drooling. We all served ourselves and all remained quiet.  I studied Jackson from the corner of my eyes. He was tense, I kinda felt bad for him.

  I cleared my throat "This is also our parents pack house" was all I said. He looked at me shocked. He stood up and walked over towards us. That earned him a low growl from our mates. I kicked Jaxon's shin under the table hearing a grunt I smiled in satisfaction. 

   "My family is dead" he said.

  "We don't remember anything about our parents, only our Aunt and Uncle who raised us. Until a week ago we didn't even know we had a brother" Skyler said looking him in the eyes. He studied us. 

  "I thought you where both dead" he sighed. A little tear ran down his cheek. We both got up and walked over to him and hugged him. He hugged us back. 

   We spent the next few hours talking about everything. We found out his mate's name was Jasmine and his son was Caleb. We told him everything that we could remember about our childhood. After his mate left to put Caleb to bed we started filling him in on our big issue.

   "So do you know what Moon Magic is?" I asked him.

  "No I don't, Mom never got around to showing me how to really use my magic. But I could never find her magic books either after they died I looked for you both for hours before I finally gave up and ran. I bet if we look and find where she hid them we can get some answers." He said. 

  We all decided to regroup in the morning. I was very tired. I made my way up the stairs very lost in thought. How is my brother the only one who can show us how to use Moon Magic if he doesn't know what it is? That was my only thought as I opened the door to what I thought was my room. I heard a moan and my face heated up as I looked at Skyler who was laying under Brett. I was shocked and embarrassed as hell I closed the door. I quickly made my way to my room desperately trying to get that image out of my head. I just went and climbed into my bed. I was almost asleep when the bathroom door opened. I sat up and was looking at Jaxon with only a towel on. All I could do is stare with my mouth hanging open. Damnit did I go into the wrong room again. It didn't help that Rain was purring in my head at the sight of an almost necked Jaxon. He dropped his towel and a growl escaped my throat having me hide my eyes from the beauty of his body.

  "I thought you where still downstairs" he said sheepishly. 

  "Why are you even in my room" I said with a embarrassing squeak to my voice.

  "Because we are mates and I figured after everything that happened you might wanna talk about it" he replied. I was just happy to hear he was covering his godlike body. "You can look now" he said. I could see that he was a slight pink from embarrassment.  I probably was to. This night could not get any worse I thought to myself. 

  Leave it to fate to be like bitch watch this. I could hear Skyler. I mentally groaned and even Jaxon looked shocked and embarrassed. I laid down and tried to block the noise. 

  "Jaxon" I whispered

  "Hmm" he replied

   "What does it mean to be marked?" I asked.

   I could feel him stiffen in the bed beside me. " Uh..it means to.. umm.." was all I could get out of him. I rolled over and got out of the bed. I started walking to the door. "Where are you going" He asked. 

  I spun around "You came in here to talk and when I ask you a question you cant even answer." I yell at him. He climbs out of bed and I know I'm beet red. He was only wearing boxers. I had a very clear shot of his abs and defined V-line that dipped into his boxers. I was so lost in looking at him that I didn't realize how close he was to me. 

  "It means that we will be as one. I will feel your pain and you will feel mine. It means that our wolves will connect and we will be joined for life. I want to mark you, but I wont until you are ready." he said then gently placed a soft kiss on my lips. It quickly escalated with passion and want and need. I fear if he wasn't holding me up I would have hit the ground. It was like pure ecstasy. I wrapped my arms around his neck losing myself to the sparks and fireworks shooting through every fiber and nerve in my body. I began to feel a deep need for more, but at that moment Jaxon pulled away letting us breathe again.

  "Mark me Jaxon" I mumbled

  He looked at me with shock "Are you sure?" He asked

  "Yes" I said as I kissed him.
