Chapter 13: Don’t Tell Chasity Calix
I sat on the bed and pulled her into my lab. She relaxed in my arms. I breathed in her scent. I groaned. She smelled so good. My lips found the unblemished skin of her neck. I licked and bit the skin without breaking it. Chasity shivered in my arms. I could smell her arousal. I found the spot I wanted on her neck and sucked on it, giving her a hickey so the other wolves at school would know she was mine. The hickey would be enough for now to deter other unwanted suitors. It was something those fated but unmated did. Like a temporary mark. Alex and Felix stopped squabbling abruptly. They climbed onto the bed. I gave Chasity to Alex.
Alex
Theld Chasity close to my chest. I did not want to alarm her so I took things slow. I planted soft kisses on her neck until I zeroed in on a spot. I sucked on her skin. She taste smelled like honey too. Everything about Chasity was golden like honey, her skin, her hair. I grazed my teeth over her neck without breaking the skin. Calix was massaging her feet, helping her to relax in my arms. I admired the hickey I had made before I gently handed her to Felix, giving him a warning look as I did so.
Felix
I tried to go as slowly as my eager wolf would allow. He dictated the spot he wanted and we actually agreed. It was a more prominent spot on her neck than the placements of the other two hickeys. We wanted it to be unmistakable and difficult to cover. All the boys at school should beware. I sucked on her skin, relishing its sweetness. I could smell how aroused she was. Calix was rubbing her feet and massaging her ankles. I took the opportunity to breathe in her scent deeply before I pulled away to admire my handiwork.
Calix
Now at least Chasity didn’t look totally unspoken for. I doubted she would allow us to make a formal announcement to the pack, re-introducing her to everyone as the Luna. This would have to do for now, triplet hickeys. Word would spread like wildfire the way it always did when something happened in our lives. Everyone was always intrigued to hear about the affairs of the triplet alphas. I was used to the attention but I knew it would be an adjustment period for Chasity. She usually managed to fade into the background despite her beauty. She was somewhat shy and seemed to be a loner. No one had ever come to call on her at the pack house. I hoped she would befriend a few of the other young women in the pack. A Luna needed a strong support system. It wasn’t an easy job.
“Don’t forget date night,” I reminded her brightly on the way out. On my way back to my room, Mom stopped me. “Calix, Honey! Come talk to Mommy!” She said. I smiled. She led me up to her room. Dad was out “What’s up?” I asked, having a feeling this was about Chasity.
We’d scarcely been fated to her for a day and Mom was already filled with trepidation. We both sat on the edge of the bed.
It’s about Chasity,” Mom admitted, Istified a groan. I nodded, showing her I was listening
“I’m worried about you three, especially you, Honey! You know you’re the most sensitive,” she said in hushed tones.
“I suppose,” I said. “Yes, well, it’s not your fault. You are the youngest so it’s to be expected!” She said.
We were only a few minutes apart each but birth order was extremely important among wolves especially regarding Alpha Lineage.
“Chasity clearly want to leave as soon as she finishes high school. She wants to go looking for her parents. If you get too attached to her, it’ll be heartbreaking for you when she leaves,” explained Mom.
It was a possibility. “If she leaves, I’ll go after her,” I said simply. Mom chuckled sadly. “You can’t make her be with you,” said Mom. “You made her clean this house,” I retorted. Mom narrowed her eyes.
“And I’m not forcing her. I’m wooing her. All mates require a little convincing. All Alphas have to win over their respective Lunas,’ I reasoned, trying to soften things because of my earlier retort.
“I just think it might be easier for you to reject her now so you have time to get over it,” said Mom gently.
I stood up. “Relax,” said Mom putting her palms up and motioning for me to come back. I folded my arms and remained standing. Mom took a deep breath. “I’m not rejecting Chasity,” I said before she could say anything else.
“If you change your mind, your father and I are willing to pay for Chasity to have a nice place to stay, other than here at the pack house, where she can finish high school. I know it’ll be too painful having her around the house if things don’t work out,” said Mom.
I stared at her blankly.
“So don’t let the fact that your mate already lives with you influence your decision,” said Mom with an awkward laugh. “You’re not stuck with her.”
