She thought about it all. It was exactly what she needed to impress the elders and the royal families.
“Okay. Tell me when and what you need. I’ll do it.”
Garth smiled.
“Bring me Maya. Do it before she mates with your wolves.”
* * * *
Maya walked into the kitchen to find Alden and Caton cooking by the stove, Tango making toast, and Saxton and Kedar talking on their cell phones. As she entered, they all stopped what they were doing to look at her.
Immediately her nipples hardened and she damned herself for wearing the light V-neck white T-shirt, and low-rise blue jeans. She gripped the back of an empty chair as her nostrils absorbed the smell of bacon, eggs, and toast.
“Come join us. I’m sure you’re starving,” Saxton said as he motioned for her to take the seat between himself and Kedar. She wondered if they had planned this.
Instead of obeying his order, she walked deeper into the small kitchen, not knowing what was stronger. Her urge for food or the sexual pull she felt toward the five large men filling up her small country kitchen.
She hadn’t bothered to put any shoes on, just a pair of socks, and now, as she moved between Alden and Caton, she wished she had.
She hesitated a moment, absorbing Caton and Alden. Their tattoos were nearly identical, so were their hair colors, but not their eyes. Alden’s eyes were dark and mysterious. Although a tad shorter than the other men, Alden was no less superior or capable looking. His muscles bulged from the T-shirt he wore, and his dark eyebrows enhanced his serious eyes as he stared right back at her.
“This is a nice place you have here. You live alone?” he asked and all she could do was nod her head, like some mute or immature wolf who was in awe of the Alpha male in front of her. She was intimidated. She admitted that immediately at realizing these men were her mates. How was she going to get pat that?
“That’s a good thing,” he whispered as he reached over and gently tugged on her long brown hair. Her belly tightened from his touch and the sexual pull between them. Her wolf was becoming aroused and that instinctual need had her turning around and nearly running into Caton. She tilted her head back to nearly her shoulders to take in the sight of Caton. Six feet four, at least, shoulder length black hair and those piercing blue eyes that sparkled like a wolf’s even in human form. She felt as if he could see to her soul as she shyly turned away. Never had she met Alpha wolves that were so attractive, and that made every ounce of her become numb with desire. Sure, she had seen her share of Alpha wolves who were big, domineering, powerful and maybe even attractive, but never had she responded like this. Not even in her teens when all her friends talked about mating, sexuality, and having a good time engaging in sexual activities. She for one was always too shy, too unsure to give such a part of herself so easily. But standing here in her own kitchen surrounded by perfection, she felt ready to bear all and allow fate to take its course. Nearly shaking with trepidation and a hunger she knew nothing about, she ignored the need to touch them. She reached for a glass in the cabinet.
When she stood up on tiptoes, her shirt must have lifted, as she felt Caton brush his hand along her waist. Her belly tightened, her nipples hardened and did she just cream herself? Yikes.
“Tattoo?” he whispered. She set her feet down on the floor and the glass on the counter as she turned to stare up at him. The man was gorgeous in a totally rugged, wild way. His shoulder-length black hair matched the thin line of beard around his lips and chin. His eyes were the brightest, darkest blue, and she was drawn to them, wanting to see into his soul, his heart, and even his wolf. He held her gaze, his thumb still caressed the tiny bit of skin peeking out from her waist of her jeans.
“Yes,” she whispered, and then wondered what he had asked. Did he ask a question? What did I just say yes to?
Her stomach rumbled and they chuckled.
She felt the arm around her waist and the palm of Alden’s hand over her belly, under her T-shirt. It was intimate. Too intimate for a man she didn’t even know, yet if felt good and right. Especially with his thick, hard, muscular forearm wedged under her breast line, and his warm hand possessively over her belly. She often wondered what it would be like to be held by a man, a mate, and now she was finding out and it was at a speed she feared could knock the wind out of her. She tilted her head up toward him.
“We’re just as hungry as you are, baby. Take a seat and we’ll serve you.”
She was in a daze, and every word they said meant something sexual and needy to her.
Are they hungry for me, or for the bacon and eggs?
Alden released her only for Tango to take her hand and bring her fingers to his lips. He kissed them and then smiled softly. Come sit and then we’ll talk.”
He escorted her to the empty chair between Saxton and Kedar. Both men held her gaze, and instantly she sensed their authority and power. They were lead Alphas. The others were, too, but these two especially were in charge.
Saxton’s height matched Caton’s except where Caton, Alden and Kedar had darker attributes, Saxton’s were lighter. He was wide up top with big muscles on every inch of him, including his neck where they bulged out along his shoulders. He had lighter eyes, and blue like the ocean, and his crew cut hair was light brown, almost blonde, in color. He seemed older, more sophisticated, but definitely not as hard looking or darker in appearance as Kedar. She took a sip of her drink and then looked at Kedar as he spoke about where they were in the investigation, and how they had men canvassing the woods for clues, and questioning people from town about seeing the strangers.
Kedar was close to Alden’s height, with more tattoos along his one shoulder and his ears were pierced. He had a well-groomed goatee, and a dark look about him. It was different than when they were all kids. She would have remembered that about them. Perhaps their warrior positions in both the public and private sector had something to do with it. Would he confide in her? Would he share his experiences with her? Or would he expect complete control, with no deep connection? It made her wonder if he and his brothers would keep their distance and see mating as an obligation.
She swallowed hard. She wasn’t a good enough mate for them. She wanted intimacy, a connection, a hunger and desire to know everything about them and for them to want to know everything about her. They needed someone stronger, tougher, and more into fighting and defending. She was a creative person, a jewelry maker, a free spirit. She lowered her eyes as the feelings of inadequacy filled her head and her heart.

Tango brought over a plate of food for Maya and then one for Saxton before taking a plate and making his own. Caton and Alden brought over their plates and one for their brother Kedar.
They ate in silence and Tango watched Maya as she slowly swallowed tiny bites of food. He looked at her delicate hands, her full plump lips, the high cheekbones, and her soft skin. She was gorgeous, and especially her blue eyes. They were huge, yet smoky and sexy like her. She had a great body, too. Not skin and bones, nor fully muscular. She was soft, curvy, and voluptuous. Her long brown hair was shiny with red highlights that framed her face. His wolf could sense her uneasiness with them and her rapid heartbeat. But it also recognized her desire and attraction. She felt it, but not knowing any of them made her unsure. Tango wanted to ease her mind and ensure her safety and well-being. But promises or not, it would take actions to prove to Maya what she meant to them already.
His concern was for her safety, and the sooner they investigated the attack on her the better off they would be.
“Maya, did you know those men who attacked you in the woods? Had you ever seen them before?” he asked. She placed her fork down after finishing her last bite of eggs. The others had been done already.
She shook her head, and held his gaze. Her lips, full and round, called to his wolf. He wanted to taste her, and to hold her in his arms. This was what it was like to find a mate. He understood how Kamea struggled to allow fate to bring her to he
r mates. How Mano, Gideon, Chance, Edric, and even Julius felt when they realized that Kamea was their mate, and she was resistant to them. No wonder they acted as they had.
“Are you sure, Maya? Perhaps you had seen them in town, or maybe when you ventured out of pack territory?” Kedar asked. She looked toward him. He was sitting very close to her left side, as Saxton sat very close on her right. In the small kitchen it was difficult to not touch her after absorbing so much of her scent.
“Yes. I’m sure. I really don’t leave the area. I love it here.”
“Why were you in the woods alone?” Saxton asked her, and he sounded a bit firm. Maya looked at him, squinted her eyes, and then lowered them. She seemed to not like confrontations or being assertive when someone challenged her. The move seemed inferior yet he wasn’t certain that she didn’t have Alpha female qualities. He didn’t really care. Once they were mated, she wouldn’t have to lift a finger if she didn’t want to.
“I’m a wolf, and wanted to run.” She looked down at her lap as if that weren’t the entire truth.
Saxton reached out and placed his fingers under her chin.
“You can tell us anything. We’re here to protect you now.”
“It’s nothing. I just needed some fresh air and to run. I had things on my mind, and when I’m in wolf form it makes me feel free and able to forget any stresses. I came upon the last ridge before the water. I was planning on stopping for a drink when the wolves emerged out of nowhere. They attacked, I tried to defend myself, and then you two arrived,” she said to Saxton and Kedar.
Kedar moved his arm over the back of her chain and against her back. His face was inches from her own.
“I smelled your scent from a distance.”
“As did I,” Saxton countered. They were both so close to her, and even Tango felt the anticipation of who would kiss her first.
“My brothers and I will find out why these men came here for you.”
Saxton placed his palm against her cheek and stared down into her eyes. She held his gaze, and Tango felt the energy between all of them.
“They’ll do that, while we get to know one another better.” He leaned forward and pressed his lips gently to her own. When she didn’t pull back, he kissed her deeper, while Kedar, Caton, and Alden watched. They didn’t look angry or jealous. Instead they looked hungry, and that was exactly like Tango felt.
* * * *
The moment their lips touched, Saxton’s wolf started to feel less frantic and on edge. Nothing else seemed to matter but kissing his mate, tasting her and beginning to secure their bond. The kiss grew deeper, as Maya held on to his wrists and kissed him back. She jerked only a moment, and as Saxton slowly released her lips, he knew why. Kedar turned in his seat and had his arm wrapped around her waist as he pulled her back against his chest.
Saxton held her gaze, and could see how unsure and nervous she was, and then Kedar tilted her face up toward him as he kissed her next.
Her face was sideway, their mouths together, and Saxton absorbed the sight, his own breathing growing rapid as he watched them make out. Maya’s shirt lifted higher, revealing her flat belly, a belly ring, and tattoos along her hip. She reached her arms up to place against Kedar’s cheeks as Kedar continued kissing her as he used his other hand to reach under her shirt and caress her breast.
The sound of her moaning had the others moving into action, pulling the table away and scooting closer with their chairs. Now they surrounded her, watching, anticipating their turn at tasting their mate.
Caton reached over and caressed her inner thigh against her jeans, moving higher between the V of her legs. Maya gasped, pulling away from Kedar.
Her lips were swollen and full, her eyes glistening and twinkled with excitement. Caton pulled her up and into his arms, causing her to straddle his waist, as he cupped her head, and kissed her deeply.
Saxton watched as her arms wrapped around Caton’s shoulders and she began to move atop his lap. It was erotic, and sexy as damn hell.
Caton moaned, and Maya followed until Caton released her lips. He stared down into her eyes, as he cupped her breast and tweaked the nipple over the clothing.
“Oh God, Caton, this is crazy.”
“I need you, too,” Alden said, and before she could respond, Caton was passing her to Alden. Alden winked at her, held her by her hips and then softly kissed her neck. Maya held on to his shoulders, and the sight of Alden’s hands pushing up her shirt in the back revealing her tan, soft skin, aroused Saxton.
“She’s lovely,” he stated aloud.
“A beautiful goddess,” Kedar added.
“Our goddess,” Caton said.
Tango stood up and pressed his front to her back. He ran his hands along her shoulders while Alden continued to kiss her deeply. Then Alden released her lips and Maya tilted her head back and up toward Tango who massaged her shoulders. He moved his hands down the front of her shirt over the V and cupped her breasts.
“Oh God, this is too much.” She moaned. But then Alden pushed her shirt up and unclipped the front of her bra.
Saxton watched in admiration as her large, full breasts emerged. Tango’s hands hardly covered them, and then he leaned down and kissed her on the mouth. Maya reached up to kiss Tango back, causing him to release his hold on her breasts. Caton lowered his mouth to one breast, suckling the tip, as Alden moved to her other breast taking the tip between his teeth.
“Holy fuck, this is hot.” Kedar growled out.
“Incredible,” Saxton added.
* * * *
Maya was completely overwhelmed and aroused beyond belief. She felt every sensation rock her body. She was making out in her kitchen with five men she didn’t know. Two were suckling her breasts right now and making her pussy throb in need. She wanted them. She felt the connection, the sexual pull, and her wolf was ready to howl.
She moved her hips back and forth over Alden’s lap as Caton and him suckled harder. Tango used his strong mouth and tongue to devour her moans and explore her mouth thoroughly. The urge to give in to the sensations became too much when she felt the hands on her back, and another set reaching around her front to unclip her jeans.
She pulled from Tango’s mouth.
“Oh God, slow down. Slow down,” she pleaded as both Caton and Alden pinched her nipples.
She screamed aloud, as the orgasm overcame her, sending her forward against Alden. She hugged him tight, suddenly embarrassed by her body’s reaction and the fact she sat topless in front of five men. She’d lost control.
“Easy, baby. You’re so fucking sexy. That was incredible, just like you,” Saxton whispered as he caressed her hair. Someone began to place her shirt back over her head, and as she leaned back, she saw that it was Saxton. He smiled at her then winked.
The feel of the fabric against her oversensitive nipples made her cross her arms in front of her chest. She felt so exposed without the bra, and glancing around for it, she caught sight of Kedar. He held it from a finger, and gestured for her to come over and get it.
Alden let her up and she stepped between Kedar’s legs. The man was so fierce looking and serious. His spiked hair, the tattoos coming from under his shirt against his neck, along with the ear piercing and facial hair aroused her all over again.
His arm wrapped around her waist drawing her closer.
She felt the palm of his hand move up her ass to her lower back under her shirt.
“Bras and panties are no longer necessary for you to wear, baby. I want this sexy body accessible at all times. Got it?” he asked. She was stunned by his words. Staring at his facial hair, she was turned on and aroused, wondering how it would feel between her legs and against her delicate skin. She shivered.
“You cold, honey?” Saxton asked as he reached over and rubbed her back.
She looked at him.
“Are you kidding? I think I lost my mind.”
Before they could respond Saxton and Kedar’s phones began to ring.
She was
saved by the interruption as she stepped away, and leaned against the counter.
* * * *
Tango followed Maya into the living room and over by her desk. Before he reached her, she turned around and gripped a hold of the chair. Her breasts swayed, under the T-shirt, and his dick hardened beneath the fly of his jeans. She was a sexual goddess.
“Hey, are you okay?”
She shook her head slowly. “I have no idea.”
Her knuckles were white, from holding the top of the chair so tightly. She was using it as a barrier between them as he moved closer. He smiled at her then looked around her desk. He noticed the large red box that kind of looked like a tackle box for fishing gear.
“You fish?” he asked, and she followed his line of sight toward the box.
“Oh, that’s for my supplies.”
She moved from behind the chair and reached for the box. He took the opportunity to move closer to her. His wolf inhaled her scent, and felt content at being this close. It was an amazing feeling.
“Supplies?” he asked, surprising her with his close proximity.
“Yes, for jewelry making. I make jewelry.”
“Really. For fun?”
“As a business. I also work as the assistant coordinator for public affairs. It’s only part time, and I don’t do much. The jewelry making business is my love,” she said as she ran her hand along the assortment of beads and different materials.
He couldn’t resist touching her as he reached out and covered her hand with his own. Their gazes locked.
“Tell me more about it. I want to know.”
He walked her over to the couch as Alden and Caton joined them.
“Jewelry making, huh? Is your stuff sold in stores in town?” Caton asked, taking a seat next to her. Alden pulled over a footrest and sat on it in front of her.
“It’s sold in town and online. I just had to hire a few other people to help me.”
Caton lifted her fingers and kissed the tips. “An entrepreneur, huh? That’s impressive,” he whispered. Maya pulled her hand away and clasped them in front of her. She shook her head.
