was strange to have these kind of thoughts, but now that she knew who the voice was, she liked it.
“Yes, I always thought so.”
“How are you feeling today?”
“I’m breathing. I’m alive, and right now I’m thinking that is a good thing.” She glanced behind her, noticing he stood close. “What’s happening with the café?”
“It’s being shut for the next couple of days while my best waitress gets better.”
“Best waitress? That’s bull. I was the worst one. I always got orders wrong.”
“No you didn’t. You got one order wrong. Didn’t you ever think about that? The only order you got wrong was Reese.”
“Oh, yeah.”
“You never got his order wrong. It was his way of trying to keep you coming back to his table.”
“Oh.” She frowned. Why would Reese want her to keep on coming back?
“You don’t see it, do you?”
“Of course she doesn’t. It’s why I wanted her,” Reese said, letting them know he was there.
Looking toward the cabin, Reese was leaning on the wooden patio looking out toward them.
“Morning, princess.”
“You like me?”
“A lot,” he said, shocking her.
“He’s not the only one, babe,” Draco said, coming around the corner of the cabin. He was carrying an axe, and she frowned. “It’s getting cold. Someone has to chop wood.”
“Or pretend to look better than everyone else,” Alex said.
“Whatever. I look hot either way.”
She looked at all three of them. They were all large, strong, determined men. “Morning,” she said. “I don’t mean to keep you from your work.”
“It’s not work, babe,” Draco said. “Besides, Reese is the Alpha.”
“Making you my minion,” Reese said.
She smiled. “It’s still strange to think there are shifters, wolves, bears.”
“Lions, leopards, you name it,” Alex said.
Three men were staring at her as if they wanted to eat her up.
They want us, Bethany.
She shook her head.
“What’s wrong?” Alex asked, touching her arm.
“Nothing. Just a voice inside my head, talking nonsense.”
It’s not nonsense. They want you, us.
“Your wolf?” Draco asked.
“I hope so. If not, I really need to go and see a doctor.”
“You’d get admitted to a white room,” Reese said.
“I figured.”
“What’s your wolf saying?” Alex asked.
“Why did you have to ask me that?”
“I’m just curious.”
“I don’t want to say.” Her cheeks started to heat.
“You can trust us. We don’t laugh.” This came from Draco.
“She, I think of her as a she, keeps saying that you want me. Not just any one of you, all of you. It’s crazy, I know—”
Three voices silenced her.
“It’s the truth.”
She looked up, and sure enough she saw the hunger in all of their eyes.
Told you.

Bethany took his breath away. Reese stared down at her, and even as she blushed, squirmed, and looked ready to bolt, she didn’t. She told them what her wolf was saying, and then simply stood there looking amazed.
“That can’t be possible. You’ve got women like Mischa, and others like her. She’s beautiful and sexy, and I’m not.”
Alex moved forward.
Reese’s wolf stayed at bay. This was how he knew that they had all mated to her. All three of them were destined to mate, breed, and love her. She was theirs to treasure.
“You’re beautiful, sexy, amazing, Bethany. You’re what we want.” Alex cupped her face, tilting back her head. “We all think you’re amazing.”
“Three men.”
“Yes, and the bonus with us, you don’t have to pick which one you want the most. We’re all here for you,” Draco said.
She took a deep breath looking toward him. “Why did you make a false order? I thought I was losing my mind.”
“I liked watching you walk toward me. Your tits bounced, and your hips swung. It always turned me on.” She was a wolf now. He wasn’t going to take the time to pretend he was the man he actually wasn’t. “Then when you left, I got a good look at your full
