implicitly. If they knew and didn’t tell her, then there was a reason for it. She just wanted to know what it was.
    “They haven’t told me anything, Dad. Teaghen was insistent that we wait for you to get here first. Just what the hell is going on?” She feigned aggravation.
    A heavy knock came at the front door just as Sammy was about to open his mouth. He smiled and walked to the door. “Phew…saved by the bell, or in this case, the knock.”

    Teaghen and his brothers had been listening from the edge of the forest. They knew something was up with their mate. They just weren’t sure what.
    “She knows something, Teag ,” Alex said through their link.
    “She knows a whole lot more than she’s let on over the years, that’s for sure, Alex. ”
    “How could she know anything about us? We never shifted any time she was near us,” Duncan chimed in.
    “Our little mate has known about us since she was a young girl, I think.”
    “How the hell is that possible?”
    “Remember how she loved to follow us everywhere? I think she snuck up on us one night and saw us shift. I thought I scented her, but she was downwind, and then it was gone, so I thought it was wishful thinking.”
    “Damn, Teaghen, why didn’t you say anything? She could have brought a lot of trouble to us and not even known it. She was such a tiny, little bit,” Alex said.
    “I wasn’t sure that she was actually there, and the next time we saw her, she didn’t act afraid or curious around us, so I figured it was just my imagination.”
    Alex shifted and stretched out his muscles. “Well, brother dear, let’s go a pay a visit to our little mate and find out just how long and how much she knows.”
    Teaghen and Duncan shifted as well. Duncan removed the backpack that he’d had Art, one of the omegas, strap to him. It held their clothes so that they could go in covered up this time.

    Jeff opened the door with a big smile. “Hey boys, your timing couldn’t have been better.”
    “Yeah,” Kianna said sarcastically, “you three always seem to show up when you’re needed. It’s like you have superhuman hearing or something.”
    “Don’t be snotty, Kia,” Sammy snapped. “We raised you way better than that.”
    Sighing, Kianna gave her dad a hug and a kiss on the cheek. “Sorry, Daddy Sam, I’m just a little tired from all the unpacking, I guess. Why don’t you all sit at the table, and I’ll get some coffee. Maybe, if we’re lucky, Jana, the housekeeper, left some of her baked goods for us. She knew I was coming today, and she always knew what a sweet tooth I had.”
    The men all took seats around the table. Bubba had had the table built before she was born. He told everyone that he had it made big because he expected his sons to give him at least a dozen grandkids. She was just grateful that no woman ever gave birth to a child of one of her brothers. They would have been raised just like their dad, and that was a scary thing to think about.
    Kianna set the coffee mugs and carafe in the middle of the table along with a huge plate of chocolate-chip cookies.
    “Help yourselves, boys. I’m not going to serve you.” She laughed, and took the empty seat in between Teaghen and Duncan. She sat and listened awhile as the men caught up with each other. It seemed to her that they’d seen each other a whole lot more than she thought. Jeff and Sammy acted like they’d known the Featherstone brothers for years. She knew that they were friends of her parents, she just wasn’t aware of how close a friendship they seemed to have. They had never visited them over the years like most friends would. Maybe it was a shifter thing.
    “I have to say that this is the first time I can recall that our Kia has been this quiet.” Jeff laughed. “Must be something in the water up here. What ya think, Sammy?”
    “Oh no, brother mine, I am not getting Kia pissed off at me.” He laughed, holding up his hands in
