Jewel snapped her head back and forth between them and laughed. “Right, go team.”
“Will you accept our claim?” Ret said slowly.
“Make me,” Jewel said and jumped on the bed, standing in a defensive stance waiting for them to attack, just what she needed, somewhere to release all this energy.
“We could but we really want to keep our balls intact.” Lex laughed.
“Okay, tell you what, if you can knock me off this bed I will accept your claim, one shot each, but if I win, you leave.” Jewel smiled.
Lex and Ret stared at each other and shrugged, “Naked mattress wrestling, I am in,” Lex said and took off his shirt. Ret nodded, he did too, and turned to Jewel who was smiling.
Lex started and walked around the bed, keeping out of the reach of her legs and arms, he dove for her and she moved fast, Lex caught her ankle and they wrestled for a minute, but Ret knew his friend, he was toying with her. Moaning, his Beta shook his head into the bed when he allowed her to pin him.
Ret grinned and waited for a moment while she stood and ignored Lex, and waved a hand at Ret to come at her. He walked to the side of the bed until she was turned to face him and Lex moved quickly, getting up on all fours and Ret kicked the bed hard, making it move a few feet, and knocking her off balance over Lex’s back and onto the floor, knocking the air out of her.
“Shit,” Ret said and ran for where she landed.
Jewel laid there for a second and then started laughing. “I need food.”
“Fine, first we feed you—then we fuck you.” Ret shrugged and walked to the phone and called room service.
Lex helped a laughing Jewel to her feet and kissed her soundly before Ret hung up the phone and kissed her as well. Spanking her on the ass, he said, “Fifteen minutes.”
Jewel stuck out her tongue and then sauntered to the bathroom, intending on taking off all of the female goo she put on her face earlier. By the time she came out, with only a towel wrapped around her, she grinned at the feast Ret had ordered.
Retten and Lex could hardly eat with Jewel so close to them, in a towel no less, and the sounds she made were making it very hard for them to control themselves. They watched as Jewel tasted another dish, then she closed her eyes, and moaned from the incredible food, that was the men’s undoing. They knew between the mating pull and the seductiveness of the simple task of eating by Jewel, they were toast. Retten grabbed her and slung the food off the table. He placed her on the table and began kissing her.
What the hell just happened? I was enjoying my meal, and now I am on a table with hot lips roaming my body, she thought. That was the last of Jewel’s coherent thinking because she couldn’t hold back the moan. Retten’s kisses were killing her. She wanted them everywhere.
Ret pulled back allowing Lex to kiss her next. Wow, Lex tasted so good, too. Jewel was so caught up in the moment as she continued to allow them to have their way with her. Lex continued to kiss her as Retten jerked the towel off, tossing it to the floor. He spread her legs before she could stop him. He forced his way between her thighs, bent his head, and started sucking on her like a man starved, causing her to cry out. The orgasm took her by surprise. Her body shook with desire. She couldn’t control it any longer. Ret sucked on her while he pushed a finger in and out, building the sensations up again as Lex pulled her shirt up, sucking and squeezing her breasts. Moisture lubricated and poured from her center as Retten licked and sucked it all up.
Her cream was like eating strawberries, Ret thought. Jewel moaned again louder from the attention the men were giving her. She was so close again when Retten suddenly stopped, causing her to immediately miss his touch. He looked up at her and asked.
“Jewel, I want and need you now. If you want us to stop, please say so now while I have some sense left in me,” Ret asked Jewel as he continued to push his fingers in and out of her.
She couldn’t think of what to say. The urge to mate consumed her. Jewel wanted this more than anything, and she couldn’t say no. “Yes, God, please don’t stop,” Jewel whispered.
Ret quickly stripped his pants off. He stroked his cock once before he lined it up and pushed inside her slowly. He wanted to fuck her hard, but he didn’t want to scare her. He didn’t know if she would like his lifestyle. Lex and he kept it private, but he so wanted to introduce her to all the pleasures.
Jewel gasped, trying to hold her breath when Ret pushed deep inside of her. Retten’s cock was so big and long. She had never had anyone near the size of this man. Jewel held her breath until Ret was planted into her all the way, filling her completely. Ret grabbed her legs and placed them on his shoulders. He started to move in and out of her slowly.
Lex continued to lavish her breasts, taking his time swirling his tongue around her nipple and then biting down gently, all the while he squeezed and pinched the other bud. Both men taking their sweet time, enjoying the fact they were finally going to be mated.
When Jewel couldn’t take how slowly they were going, she yelled, “Dammit, fuck me harder!”
Ret looked over to Lex who smiled. Retten smiled back, then started to thrust in and out of Jewel harder.
“Yes, oh yes,” Jewel muttered. The goosebumps and the shivering started, letting Jewel know she was so close. Lex stopped the assault on her breast to take the time to remove his pants while he watched Ret take Jewel harder and faster.
The sensation was unbelievable. Jewel pressed herself into Retten, allowing him to go deeper still and take her harder. Before Jewel knew it, Ret flipped her over and continued to pound into her.
“That’s it, Jewel, let it go, baby,” Ret said between gritted teeth as he reached around and rubbed her special spot until she screamed out, letting the orgasm take control of her body. Ret pumped into Jewel a few more times, then reached and grabbed Jewel by the hair, pulling her back, allowing him enough room to bite her on the shoulder, causing Jewel to orgasm again.
She couldn’t hold herself up when Ret grabbed her. Jewel didn’t have time to rest or think about what Ret had just done when Lex flipped her over and brought her down onto him. Jewel straddled Lex.
“Baby, you have to be the sexist woman I know. Watching Ret fuck you was driving me crazy,” Lex said as he pushed farther into her. Jewel’s body took over, allowing her to rise up and push back down. She started to ride Lex. He pulled her head closer and kissed her deeply. Ret came up behind her, grabbed her breasts and squeezed them, then flicked the nubs that were already so oversensitive. Jewel screamed out again when the orgasm took her. Ret reached farther and started playing with her while Lex fucked her. She could feel the liquid flowing out of her, flowing down onto Lex.
“Fuck yeah, baby. I can feel your cream as you come all over me. I love you, Jewel.” Jewel looked up but before she could think about Lex telling her that he loved her, she screamed out again, shaking hard when Lex reached and grabbed her closer to him as he bit into her shoulder. Lex bit down, allowing her blood to flow into his mouth. He sucked her blood in, then licked her shoulder, allowing the puncture wounds he had made to close.
Jewel was so tired that she slumped over onto Lex and passed out. Lex hugged her closer knowing the deed was done. He hoped Jewel wouldn’t fight this when she woke. Lex picked her up and took her back into his bedroom. He laid her in the middle of his bed then Retten and he laid down on each side of her and snuggled close into her heat.
Chapter Sixteen
The phone woke them once again. Damn, she needed to get an answering service. Moaning, she rolled and felt the pull of the marks on her neck. She was mated, to the two men who had quickly become important to her.
“We will be right there,” Ret said and rolled off her.
“Who, what?” Jewel said drowsily.
“We have to go, issue at one of the sites, a building partially collapsed. No one hurt, but there is a mess,” Ret said, pulling on his clothes. Lex stood up looking for his clothes.
“Let me get up,” she said, sitting up and seeing
both of her mates getting dressed.
Ret shook his head and when he finished buttoning his pants, he leaned over and kissed her quickly. “No, stay here. I will have Enforcers at the doors until we get back.”
Jewel growled and shook her head. “Please, we will sort this out when we get back, they will remain at a discrete distance if you leave,” Lex said and kissed her quickly.
“Fine, but we will talk about this,” Jewel said grumpily, fell back onto the bed, and yawned.
“Right, we will call you,” Ret said. “Wait,” he said, stopped at the door, walked back to the bed, and pulled her into his arms. “I love you,” he said and smiled at her.
“I love you, too,” Lex said, leaning back in and winked at her.
“Ditto,” she said, rolled over, and smiled to herself.

Jewel tried to go back to sleep, but it was impossible. She couldn’t help think about the night before. She was missing something, showering and looking at the board again would be good. She could call for breakfast and make Vander and Benny come over to talk this through.
Satisfied she had her plan, she made the call and gave herself an hour. A nice, long shower would help her wake up. As she walked into the bathroom, she thought of something. All of the jewelry was from her childhood; only a few people would know what they meant to her.
The water felt awesome, and she hummed in appreciation. She could scent them on her still, the mating had taken, their scents would combine and change. Jewel’s eyes popped open. “No fucking way.”
***
“Sorry, guys, change of plans. Lex wants you at the site instead of here. They found a body. Jewel, Benny, and Vander are coming with us,” the man said to the two Enforcers in the hallway and pulled out a key to the room.
“Yes, Alpha,” they said and walked to the elevators, never questioning who he was. It would be so simple. The pack would never know he replaced his loving brother. After his mates are killed, the Alpha would be devastated, but with the support of his pack, he would remain strong.
This whole time, none of them noticed. He had approached the front desk for keys to Jewel’s room, they just smiled and nodded, thinking they were giving their Alpha the key, they practically groveled. Going in and out of her room had been easy.
And all these years, Madeline thought she was helping her new Alpha, too bad for her. The others believed everything he said until he killed them, then the look of confusion in their eyes was hilarious. So many that no one would ever know. However, his followers knew. They were dedicated, and only a choice few knew the truth about who he was, and supported his claim for the throne of the NYC Pack.
“See you in a bit,” he said and waved as he entered the room. Finally, he was here, in the same room, alone with her. She had to know that he was coming for her. Tilting his head, he listened. Showering, nice.
***
She scented him and knew he had come for her. Damn it, how could she have been so blind? Her anger was pulsing through her—the lies, the pain she had gone through, for what? She was about to find out. She looked around—the shower bar was loose. Quickly moving it from side to side, she pulled gently until it came out.
“Hey, honey,” the smooth voice called to her. “Lex and I decided we needed you to come with us.”
“Oh yeah, why?” she called back.
“There is a body in the rubble, they think it is the woman they were looking for,” he called to her and stepped into the bathroom. She grinned, right where she wanted him. The son of a bitch was not playing any more games with her.
“Okay, well give me a few and I will be out,” she said softly and heard him chuckle. Shivers ran up her spine.
“Need some help?” he said softly.
“Sure,” she laughed and waited, the bar from the shower stall in her hands.
She saw the hands reach, whipped the curtain open, and struck him across the face.
“Fuck,” he yelled and held his face as he stepped backward. Jewel wasted no time getting out of the tub and continuing the assault.
“You, asshole,” she bellowed and raised the bar to hit him again. He recovered and smiled smugly when he punched her in the stomach.
“Now, dear, why on earth would you be attacking me?” he said and she doubled over.
“How could you, Josh?” Jewel wheezed and stood up.
“Well, the jig is up,” he said, lifted his hands up, and laughed. “When did you know?”
“Just now, your scent. We were not true mates, but you did find yours, right?” she laughed and then kicked out at him, knocking him out of the room and onto the floor, she ran and grabbed the lamp that was on the small table and swung it wide and hard, hitting him in the back of the head when he was standing up. She threw the lamp and kicked him several times, hoping to knock him out. Of course, her luck couldn’t be good for once.
“Yes, I did, and you know what. She understands me. Are we gonna do this naked?” Josh growled and stood again.
She ducked when he swung and she hit him in the side, and when he bent over, she used her knee to hit his face hard. “You couldn’t be like most husbands, and just left? Instead, you stage your death, and become a serial killer? And if you want to stop, just let me know and I will get dressed, I have some nice steel-toed boots in the closet.”
He stood up with blood coming down his nose. He wiped the blood away with is sleeve, and laughed. “So the bitch has a few moves? I prefer you this way, then when I kill you, it will be so much easier,” he snarled, and she growled and kicked him in the stomach.
He countered by grabbing her foot and flipping her on the floor using the back of his hand to hit her in the cheek. When she felt the pain in her cheekbone, she became more pissed. “What about your parents? How could you do that to them? And you will not be killing me any time soon; I have something to live for you son of a bitch. MY TRUE MATES,” she yelled.
“Parents? You mean the couple I paid to act like my parents, oh they were nice enough to help me play this game, especially when their son is one of my loyal followers. Yep, Josh Campbell is an amazing young man who has a future ahead of him. I think you will be hearing a lot about him soon. Your true mate is my twin brother by the way. Think about how twisted that is, fucking one brother and then other,” Josh, or who ever the fuck this was, laughed.
“How the hell could I not have known? You are nothing like Ret, he is more of a man than you will ever be,” Jewel snarled, jumped back up, and using as much strength as she could, she punched him again, drawing blood again with a cut over his eye.
“Because you didn’t want to. A little naïve don’t you think?” Josh said.
“Fuck you,” Jewel said and lunged toward him. She heard banging on the door and knew Vander or Benny had to becoming for her. The amount of noise they were making, someone had to call the front desk.
She ducked when he threw the table at her and it crashed through the window to the patio. Oh shit, Ret was going to have to pay a lot to fix this place up. “Still want me, babe?” Josh said and laughed. “Sorry, honey, why do you think I am back here, you know you remind me a lot of my mother.”
“What the hell are you babbling about, you just said she wasn’t your mother,” Jewel said and grabbed the other lamp in the room and held it in front of her.
“Come on, darling, think about it. Just for a second,” Josh said, giving her time to think before he continues, “Seconds up, I may not remember her, but I was told she was a cheating whore—just like you.”
Jewel narrowed her eyes. “You know what, I don’t give a shit,” she said and swung the lamp over her head.
“Can we please stop this, Jewel, you know it has to be like this,” he said tiredly.
She grinned, feeling her own cuts and bruises for the first time. Damn, she was gonna be sore.
“Jewels,” Vander yelled through the door and pounded.
He leaned back and frowned when he heard the commotion on the other side of the door, sh
it, they were coming too quick. He was going to have to take his leave, and have this fight another day. He should have known she would be ready for him.
Josh reached into his pocket when he heard Vander yelling and then smiled at her. “Don’t let your guard down.”
The door burst open and Vander stumbled, Benny swung his gun in the door and narrowed his eyes.
“Shit,” the older wolf said slowly and Josh threw the smoke canister.
The room filled with black smoke and he slipped away, silently, just as he had entered.
Jewel heard Ret and Lex yell for her from down the hallway as she dropped the lamp and fell to the ground.
Chapter Seventeen
“I can’t believe you kicked his ass,” Lex said smugly when she got out of the shower.
They were in a new room once again. Ret was going to have to close the floor to repair the rooms before they actually left. When Lex and Ret discovered that Josh had set them up, they rushed back to the hotel with guns a barreling. She was amused with the fact the handsome Prince didn’t have to save her. Poor babies were crushed, she had to do something for them. Her shifter DNA was helping with the soreness.
She went to his side and knelt on the bed between his legs. Running her hand over Ret’s chest, she smiled up at him, swallowing a laugh when he narrowed his eyes and regarded her warily.
“Every time you touch me, it feels so good, but I want to please you, too.” Pouting, she stared up at him through her lashes. “I want to show you how much I appreciate what you did.”
She lowered her eyes to hide her amusement at the heat mixed with wariness that flared in his eyes, and then snapped her head up again in shock at their reactions.
