Lacy Read online

  “Lacy, you are the child born under the July moon. You are destined to be the protector of mates. Your gift is to see who belongs together and also to protect those who are being mistreated. It is what your calling has always been. Also, you are a witch. You will be able to help the Council with the fight that is ahead of them. You were made to do this.” Her mother said and stood up and began to pace. “The rest of the coven will be here in the morning to discuss how we will proceed from here.” Lacy nodded and then looked at the men next to her. “And you are from the Council Pack? Did you draw the small straw?” She joked.

  Shawn smiled and laughed. “Kinda, in fact until a few hours ago, my brother and I would actually have agreed. However, it seems the spirits are once again working. They led us to you.”

  Lacy smiled and lowered her head shyly. She felt the pull, when they were in the store she had seen the threads trying to connect to each other. Since then she felt the bond begin to grow every time they touched.

  Her father cleared his throat and said, “Um Lacy, there was one thing about the Prophesy that we have yet to discuss. Your mother understood it before the Old Council did. One of the Chosen would have two mates, all except the White Wolf. She needed only one because she could not be tethered to more than one person. Also, your powers would not fully come to you until you, uh, fully mated.” Lacy blushed and looked at her mother who was nodding. “You mean I have to mate with them and I will receive my powers?”

  “Well, yeah, but there is a second part to that. Your place is at the New Council, and you will take your seat with them. But each of the Chosen will produce a child in the first year. Those children are the other gift from the spirits.” Her mother said.

  “Okay, wait a fucking minute.” She said and blew out a deep breath. “I have been calm about this up until now, but what you are telling me is that; One, I am a Chosen. Two, I have two mates. Three, with them we have to go and fight Rogues who are attacking the New Council which I will belong to when I mate with these two. And last, that I am going to get pregnant, like soon?”

  Her mother made a noise and she looked at her. She was trying to hold back her laughter, then she looked at her father and he was doing the same. She blushed and looked at the two men who were seated next to her and they were grinning from ear to ear.

  “Really?” She huffed and stood up. Lacy swayed a little and both of the men jumped up to grab her. She shook them off and stalked to the bathroom with her head held high.

  She needed some space.

  Once in the bathroom, she sat on the toilet and put her head in her hands. How the hell had her day gone from normal to crazy in the span of a few short hours? Lacy sighed and stood up and looked in the mirror. She looked normal, nothing had changed. She wondered if she would change when she mated with two bears. Holy shit, was she going to become a bear?

  Lacy was going to hyperventilate. She was not ready for all of this. Good God"s she could barely walk across the street without getting a broken leg. How the hell was she supposed to help save the New Council? She sat back down on the toilet and tried to think. The only thing she could concentrate on though was the fact that she was supposed to mate with the two extremely handsome men out in the living room.

  When was she supposed to do this, she wondered, tonight? Shit, she was in her parents"

  house. That was kinda gross. Could they go back to her place? Gods, she was thinking too much. She needed to get herself together and go out there with a plan.

  ***

  The twins sat there, looked at their mate"s parents, and smiled. There was an uncomfortable silence in the room. Finally, Sevi spoke up. “So, uh, witches, huh? Our Alpha is going to be happy we found you.”

  Lacy"s mother looked at them and narrowed her eyes. “What do you two do?” Shawn and Sevi looked at one another and grimaced. Now they were in for the future son-in-law grilling. “Well, we run the family supply store in Milliken.”

  “Your family owns it?” Her father asked looking at them closely.

  “Yeah, my father started it with a friend when we first arrived in town. Now that he is retired, we took over. Our other brother, Blaine, was an Enforcer in the Pack. We thought about becoming an Enforcer too, but my parents wanted us to take over the business. We have our own home in town. Just built it.” Shawn said.

  “So Lacy is one of the Chosen.” Sevi asked.

  Her parents nodded and the twins looked at each other. This was not what they thought about when they thought of a mate. After seeing everything the rest of the Chosen had gone through, this changed things a lot. They were going to have to watch out for her more. It was a shock that their mate was one of the Chosen. Their mother was going to have a cow. And their brother was going to blow a vein, but this was going to be fun.

  Now they could torment him on a daily basis.

  “You have a problem with that?” Her father asked and looked at the men again closely.

  “No!” Shawn said. “It"s just a shock, I mean we thought we were going to come here and ask for your help and return to Milliken and continue with our lives. This trip has changed everything. Not only have we found our mate, but also she is one of the Chosen. We just need a few to adjust.”

  “Well, you don"t have a few. Sorry to say, that you are going to have to get used to it quickly. When we were at the store, I sensed a presence in the front of the store. If I am not mistaken, the Rogues have found out the Lacy is one of the Chosen and they are going to try to take her.” Her mother said calmly.

  Lacy"s father jumped up and yelled, “Woman, are you crazy? Why didn"t you tell me sooner?”

  Her mom shrugged and looked at her mate. “We are going to have to unbind your powers and help Lacy get to Colorado.” She said calmly.

  Her father ran his hands through his hair and paced the large room. “When were you going to tell me this?”

  “I was waiting for Lacy to come back into the room. You know that she is going to have to help me with the spell. I can"t do it alone and I think it would be best if we kept it a secret.” Her mother said.

  Sevi and Shawn watched as the pair argued, it was like watching a tennis match. They both turned their head when one of them spoke. It was hilarious. They were going to have a good time with these people.

  “Uh, can I interrupt for a second?” Shawn said and raised his hand.

  “Dude, we are not in school anymore.” Sevi smirked.

  “Hell, I didn"t want to startle them and get a spell thrown at me or something. Jeeze, anyway. If I could ask something?” Shawn said.

  Lacy"s father motioned with his hand in a circle, telling him to hurry up.

  “Well, you said you were going to help us get back to Colorado. Do you have any idea what we are going to have to do when we get there?” Shawn asked.

  When they left, they had narrowly escaped the cloud. By now, it was surely closed.

  There was no way back into the Pack compound, how were they going to break the spell, and protect the Pack with only themselves? The Rogues would have the place surrounded by now. The last time they attacked, it had been ugly. They were not sure the witches understood what they were in for.

  “Sir, the last time the Rogues attacked the compound, we had a lot of injured and lost some lives of some good shifters. This is not going to be an easy task. In addition to the witches they have recruited, the Rogues have a lot of shifters. So, when we get back, we are on our own until we can get help from the inside.” Shawn said seriously.

  Her father nodded and looked at them with determination. “We won"t be alone.” Sevi and Shawn looked at each other and frowned. They had no clue what that meant, but they were going to have to trust the witches. Of course, they would protect their mate at all costs. Now that they found her, there was no way she would be hurt, Chosen or not, she was their mate.

  Lacy opened the door to the bathroom and walked out looking a little better.

  “Well, I have made a decision.” She announced, and tripped over a
rug that was laying in the living room.

  Chapter 6

  Damnit! She thought as she was lying on the floor. She had planned on coming in the room and announcing that she was going to claim her mates tonight at her house. And she ended up on the floor? How embarrassing.

  Both of the men ran to her side and helped her up as her parents laughed. They were used to her clumsiness, but to have her mates see it so often in a short period was just humiliating.

  “You okay, sweetheart?” Shawn murmured and kissed the top of her head.

  “Fine.” She grumbled and put her head in his neck and sighed. Sevi ran his hand up and down her back soothing her.

  “Are you sure?” Sevi whispered in her ear. She nodded and then shivered when he whispered again in her ear. “We are going to have to invest in bubble wrap for you just to keep you unharmed. Or I could just carry you everywhere.” Lacy smiled and turned to look at Sevi, “That would cause a little too much talk, don"t you think?”

  “Sweetheart, I would carry you to the ends of the earth and back if you wanted me too.” He said and looked in her eyes and she almost melted. They were sexy; she thought and felt the pull of the mating again. They were going to have to get the hell out of her parent"s house quick or she was going to jump them right here.

  “As I was saying,” she said loudly and looked at her parents. “I have made a decision, before the rest of the coven gets here; I think I need to get my powers.” Her mother nodded and then looked at her father and smiled. “Yes, dear. However, you are not going home. As I was saying to your mates, I believe the Rogues may have found you. In your apartment, you would be sitting ducks. You can use the guesthouse. When you are done though, we have other things to do, don"t dawdle.” Lacy looked at her mother with her mouth wide open. Her mother just told her to go and have sex with two men and to hurry? Seriously? She was going crazy.

  “Mooom!” Lacy squealed when Sevi scooped her up in his arms and smiled and nodded to her parents.

  “Which way?” He said and then moved in the direction they pointed without hesitation.

  “We will be back in a while.” Shawn called and shut the door behind them and followed Sevi who was nearly running to the building in the distance. At least they would be far enough away when they made their mate scream from pleasure her parents would not hear.

  Lacy laughed when Sevi kicked open the door to the guest cottage, looked around quickly, and then carried her into the first bedroom he found. Shawn was right behind them and when Sevi sat her on her feet, they both surrounded her.

  Sevi leaned down and kissed her for the first time without her being under the influence, and she almost cried from the gentle sweetness. He slowly explored her lips with his and then nudged her mouth open with his tongue and continued to explore. She groaned in his mouth when she felt Shawn kissing her neck, reaching around and cupping her breasts from behind through her clothes. They were going to kill her, she thought.

  Sevi pulled back and then spun her and she was facing Shawn who was smiling. He bent and kissed her. He was much more demanding than his brother had been. They may be twins, but she was going to have no problems telling them apart in the light or darkness.

  He didn"t wait, and pushed his way into her mouth and grabbed the back of her head and tilted it so he could get the best angle.

  Sevi began unbuttoning her shirt and then slowly pulled it off, careful of her arm. Then he unsnapped her bra, and slid it off, before covering her breasts with his large hands and squeezing gently. Lacy leaned back a little so she was giving him as much access as she could. It felt so good to be touched by her mates.

  Shawn pulled back and growled. “Clothes off.” He ordered and she laughed at the look on his face. If she could take a picture, she would, just to remind her how sexy her mates were when they were aroused. His eyes that were normally green, turned a dark shade of brown, and glittered with passion.

  Lacy quickly pulled off her pants and underwear and stood before them naked. She almost covered herself when she saw the look on their faces. They stared intently at her body without speaking, and had stopped what they were doing. Hell, did that mean that they were disappointed? She wondered a second before Sevi pulled her back into his arms and kissed her soundly then released her and finished undressing. Shawn did the same and she giggled.

  “Bed.” Shawn ordered and she looked up in surprise. Was he going to be this demanding all the time? “Sorry, sweetheart, please would you join us in the bed?” He whispered when he saw her hesitate.

  She nodded shyly and then walked to the bed and crawled in the middle. She was not sure how this was supposed to work. She had little to no experience with sex. A few fumbling with past boyfriends, but nothing compared to having two sexy and huge men want to have sex with her. She looked at their erections and her eyes widened.

  “Holy shit.” She stuttered.

  Shawn laughed and said, “Thanks, I think.”

  “Uh, there is something you should know. I, uh, well that is, sometimes, fuck.” She said frustrated and looked at her mates.

  “Just spit it out, sweetheart.” Sevi said and crawled on one side of her while Shawn did the same on the other.

  She moaned when they each took a breast into their hands and began pinching her nipples at the same time. “Wait, can"t think when you do that.” She gasped and sat up.

  Both of them growled in frustration and pulled her back to lie in between them. “No moving.” Shawn said and leaned down and kissed her sensitive nipple. Sevi did the same and she thought she was going to come right there. Never had she felt such incredible sensations, even when she took care of herself.

  “Damn it, I"m trying to tell you something important.” She said softly.

  “Okay, we"re listening.” Sevi said and pulled back and looked at her in the face. Shawn released her nipple with a big sigh and leaned back. She could tell he was not happy about being interrupted.

  “Like I was saying, you know, before. Well, it"s like this. I have never, you know, done this before.” She said and closed her eyes waiting for them to be disgusted with her and get up and leave. When she didn"t feel them move, she peeked open one of her eyes and looked at them.

  They were staring at each other grinning and then turned back to her. Before she knew it, they had her on her back and were devouring her, all the while each of them muttering. “She is ours, never been touched by another man. Only us, forever.” She giggled and then stopped when Shawn took over kissing her mouth. She sighed and wrapped her arms around his neck. Sevi kissed his way down her stomach, she felt him nudge her legs apart, and she resisted for a second. She pulled back, looked at him, and relented when he grinned at her. She had never had someone go down on her and wasn"t sure what to expect.

  She gasped into Shawn"s mouth when Sevi used his tongue to separate her folds. Shawn kept kissing her and gently began moving his hands over her breasts, making the nipples pebble under his palm. While his brother flicked his tongue over her clit over and over again.

  She felt him slip a finger into her pussy and moved to take him fully inside her. She could feel him grin against her pussy lips and then added another finger and began pumping them in and out of her. She ripped her lips away from Shawn so she could breathe.

  Shawn looked down at her and smiled. “Feeling a little overwhelmed?”

  “No.” she panted and said, “Just need more air.”

  He chuckled and bent to take one of her nipples in his mouth. “Please!” She cried out.

  “What do you need, sweetheart?” Sevi said from her slit.

  “I don"t know. Just more.” She cried.

  The twins laughed and Sevi bent down and sucked her clit into his mouth and Shawn did the same to her nipple. Both of them rolling the nubs in the same way on the roof of their mouths. She could not stand it anymore and she cried out their names and came hard.

  It was the first orgasm she had without a mechanical device. And it was amazing, she thought and relaxe
d.

  “Oh no, sweetheart, we are just beginning.” Sevi said.

  “Whatever, do what you have to. I will just lay here.” She said tired from the passion she had expelled.

  Both of them laughed then moved her a little. She moaned when once again they began to play with her. She felt more of her juices leak from her, getting her ready to take her mates.

  Sevi settled over her and smiled. “Today we take you separate, but soon we will take you together and you will love it.”

  Her breath hitched when she thought about it. Oh my, she thought, that would be amazing.

  “For now, I"m gonna take this sweet little pussy and make you mine. You are going to scream my name, and then my brother"s when he takes you.” Sevi whispered into her ear.

  He began kissing her and used one hand on her nipple and the other on her clit. He brought her back up to the edge in a matter of minutes. She felt him move a little and his cock was at her opening. She sucked in a breath and held it, waiting for the pain to start. She was a little surprised when she felt him slip into her slowly. She stretched but it didn"t hurt. In fact, it felt wonderful.

  She felt him hit the layer of skin that would make her a woman when it broke. She was ready but apparently, her mate was going to be gentle. She pushed up her hips and he groaned against her neck. She smiled and did it again. He grabbed her hips and then licked the pulsing vein in her neck and she shivered. It was where he was going to claim her.

  “Now.” She screamed in impatience.

  Sevi pushed inside her at the same time he bit the side of her neck. She felt a sharp bite and then pure pleasure. She felt the bond between her and Sevi grow and then snap into place. She needed him to move, so she moved her hips.

  Sevi groaned and then pushed her legs open a little more and leaned up to get a better position. He pumped in and out of her slowly, making sure that he was gentle, but hitting her clit with every pass. She felt the tide of another orgasm building. Lacy did not know how much more she could take.
