it.
    “How do you know I’m thinking?”
    “I can hear it.”
    She giggled at that.
    “I’ll take care of it,” he sighed, getting
closer.
    “And how will you take care of it? Males
like you don’t like to share?”
    “I’m not sharing. I’m taking care of my mate,
and if she needs another to get through her cycle then I’ll endure it.”
    Jennifer smiled, even though he couldn’t
see it. “How will you endure it? The only other male of our kind near is your
brother.” When he said nothing, she turned over to face him. “You’re going to
ask your brother?”
    Reed took a deep breath, “Like you said,
there isn’t another male of our kind around, and I do trust him.”
    “But he’s your brother. Isn’t that going
to be a bit strange? I mean, hell we really don’t know each other.”
    He turned her back around, holding her
close to his chest. “We know each other and will get to know each other better.
Yes, it will be a bit strange to have my brother in bed with us, but it’s only
for the one time. Doubt we will see another red moon in our lifetime.”
    She thought about this for a bit, the
smiled again. “So do I get to pick who goes in where?”
    Reed growled, “Don’t push it, mate.”
    Again, she giggled, “Well what if I like
it so much I want to do it again?” This time he nipped at her shoulder. “Ouch!”
    “One time and one time only!” he snapped.
“Period. Now go to sleep.”
    Still smiling, Jennifer closed her eyes
and tried to sleep. A hard task when your body was still humming, the need from
a cycle you don’t expect to happen before a full moon hitting her. It was hard,
but somehow she managed to do just that and got some rest. After all, she
didn’t know what the next night might bring her.
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     

 
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
    Chapter Four

     
    “Excuse me? I didn’t hear you right. You
want me to do what?” Brent asked Reed, a frown on his face, hands on hips.
    Reed sat on the sofa in Brent’s rented
cabin as calmly as he could or at least he worked to appear so. Inside he
screamed that this was a mistake, he didn’t want to share his mate even though
he knew she was going to need it.
    “You’re the only one I trust,” Reed said.
    Brent shook his head and Reed kept an eye
on him. They were only two years apart and very close, not to mention they sort
of looked alike. Brent kept his hair shorter however; they had the same dark
locks, same dark eyes and were built with the same muscle mass. Brent happened
to be only about one or two inches shorter than Reed though. One other time
they shared a woman and it was a night that they both agreed they didn’t want
to do again, because they both really did like it—too much in fact.
    “I thought we agreed to never do that
again,” Brent said, leaning on the sink with arms crossed over his chest. “We
liked it too much. Remember?”
    “I remember.”
    “Then why are you asking me?”
    Reed growled and stood up, rubbing his
face, then the back of his neck. “You remember the stories we heard about the
red moon. How we’re forced into a mating heat.”
    “Yeah, I remember them.”
    “Well, do you also remember the stories of
how a female went into a needing cycle and that it built with each night with
the moon? That once the moon became red, she would be so far gone that one
wouldn’t be enough.” He took a deep breath and began to pace the small space.
“Brent, I never thought I’d stumble upon my mate like this or be put in this kind
of position.” He stopped and met his brother in the eye. “Last night, when I
took her, I felt like I was in heat too and I could smell her cycle. This
morning that scent is stronger instead of weaker. What we were told is true and
she’s going to need another to get through this. I won’t be able to take care
of her alone. I trust you. I’m only asking this one thing. Join us for one
round, then go and I’ll be able to finish it.
