Rebecca’s Wolves(20)
If she lived through this night, it would be a miracle.
Chapter Eight
Miles couldn’t believe the predicament he was in. This soft breath of a woman, a human at that, currently squirming her sexy ass against his cock, was his.
Well, his and Griffen’s.
And what the hell was that all about? Three of them?
It wasn’t unheard of, but he hadn’t personally known anyone to mate with two others.
No wonder something had felt incomplete since the moment he met her. He wasn’t meant to mate her alone. Fate knew what She was doing.
Jesus. Her skin was so white. And her long gorgeous auburn hair made him want to undo the braids and watch it cascade over her naked body. The vision drove his cock to stiffen further, as if that were possible.
When she licked her lips throughout the evening, he nearly came in his pants. Or simply into the night air before he’d put his jeans on.
He knew it made her uncomfortable seeing him naked, hovering in front of her, but he hadn’t been able to bring himself to cover his body. He liked the way she looked at him. And she was welcome to get her fill any time she wanted for the rest of their lives.
He wondered if she looked at Griffen the same way before Miles arrived. Had she seen him naked? He knew they hadn’t had sex. He would have smelled it on both of them. But what had they done?
Suddenly Griffen slipped into his mind, shocking Miles. “If you don’t stop fondling her, I’m going to clamp my jaw on your arm and draw blood, like you suggested.”
How the hell was Griffen able to communicate with Miles in human form? “Griffen?”
“Yep.”
“How the hell…?”
“Guess it’s the mating.”
“Shit. We must already be connecting. This is crazy. I’ve never met anyone who shared a mate like this. Have you?” Miles asked.
“Yes. My cousins in Oregon. On my dad’s side. There are four sons. If I remember correctly, they all share their mate with another man. It’s been years since I’ve seen them. Long before any of them mated. Dad will know the details.”
“If I didn’t know better, I would think this was insane. But it’s pretty obvious she belongs to both of us. I can feel the forces of nature pushing us to claim her—together. Do you think Rebecca is able to communicate with us too?”
Rebecca didn’t move. In fact her breathing had evened out in the last several minutes. He knew she wasn’t asleep, but she was relaxing marginally. If either of them were in her head, she would not be so calm.
“Doesn’t seem so. But this is foreign to her. And she’s human.”
“I see that.” Miles smoothed his fingers over her belly once again, gently so as not to disturb her. She moaned anyway, pressing her front against him.
“Seriously, Miles. You’re starting to piss me off.”
Miles fought to keep from chuckling out loud. “It’s not my fault you tripped and impaled yourself, dude. I’m just here to rescue your ass.”
“First of all, I did not simply trip and fall, asshole. And second of all, if it weren’t for me getting injured, you wouldn’t even be here to know Rebecca was your mate. So, do me the courtesy of easing back so we might enjoy her together for the first time.”
He had a point. “She smells so fucking fantastic, and she’s sexy as hell. What does she do when she isn’t nursing? Work out all day?”
“Pretty much. She’s training for a Spartan Race.”
Miles flinched. “One of those mud things with the obstacles?”
“Yep.”
He rolled his eyes, even though no one could see him. “Oh, hell no.”
Griffen chuckled into his head. “Yeah, I don’t think it’s up for debate. She’s a driven and determined soul.”
“How the hell are we going to keep up with that?”
“No clue. But it helps there are two of us now.”
“Is that supposed to make me feel better about sharing her sexy body with you?” Miles stroked her belly beneath her breasts again because he could.
Rebecca inhaled sharply. She wasn’t asleep. Her small hand landed on top of his, her fingers threading in between his huge ones. She tugged as though she could prevent him from stroking the undersides of her breasts.
Miles wasn’t about to release her. He’d never been more comfortable. Even lying on the ground in the cold with his woman fully clothed was a delight. He’d probably expire when he got her naked.
Griffen growled low and deep. “You want to argue some more about whose mate she is? I thought we covered that when you first arrived. Obviously she belongs to both of us.”
“And you’ve been with her for twenty-four hours already? How did you avoid claiming her?”
