“Yeah, they are.” He breathed out.
“I don’t think it has anything to do with sexual feelings. You feel comfortable with him. Derek is now your family, and he has been with another, and that upsets you. You even slept in the same bed without me. You are best friends now, and you don’t want to share him.” I told him and he sighed.
“I think you might be right. But what do I do?” He asked, sounding defeated about this.
“We need to go home. We can discuss everything after we are in our own bed.” I told him.
“And what about King Theo?” He asked me.
“I have two mates, who I love and share a son with. I’m not looking for a third.” He kissed my head after I told him.
“I’m sorry, I rushed off.” He whispered.
“Mason, you can always talk to me. You are my mate. I’m always on your side.” I looked up at him, staring into his gold eyes, eyes I could easily get lost in.
He leaned down and kissed me with so much passion and love that it made me weak in the knees. I was glad that Mason was holding me against him. With the same amount of force, I kissed him back. I love him and I need him to feel it. When he pulled away, we were both panting.
“Baby, you look beautiful.” He told me, kissing my nose. I rolled my eyes.
“Let’s get back to James.” I told him. I shifted, and Tundra took off running toward her pup. She was eager to get back to him and so was I. Thor came up beside me, matching Tundra’s speed. It surprised me at how fast Thor had become, and how much bigger he was.
When we made it back to the camp, Tundra wandered into the tent. Liam was nowhere to be found. It was just Derek sitting on our bed with James cradled in his arms. They piled my clothes on the bed, and I was so thankful that Ian brought them.
I shifted back and got dressed. I could feel Derek’s eyes on me the whole time, and it was hard not to blush. Mason finally entered the tent and shifted. He went to his bag and pulled out some clothes. It was becoming increasingly awkward as the silence built.
“Derek, we are going to head home. Is there anything that you need to get done?” I asked him, breaking the silence.
“Nothing that I can’t ask Matt to do,” Derek said. And I nodded.
After both Mason and I were dressed, I went to sit by Derek and Mason just stood there, watching us.
“Mason, come sit down and I’ll explain.” Derek sighed.
“There’s no need. It’s not like we are together. We are here because of Ashlyn, not because either of us has feelings for each other.” Mason said, and I could see the hurt in Derek’s eyes.
“Is that what you think?” He asked Mason, and he shrugged. Derek stood up and gave me James. He walked over to Mason. They were both staring at each other, and I was watching them intently. I didn’t need them to throw punches at each other.
Derek suddenly grabbed the nape of Mason’s neck and crushed his lips to his. I won’t lie, watching them together was the hottest thing I’ve ever witnessed. My core was on fire and my underwear was soaked.
Derek pulled out of the kiss first and rested his forehead against Mason’s. He was still holding on to his neck. I could hear them both panting.
“I’m not just here because of Ashlyn. You are my mate, Mason. I would lie down my life for yours. We are together and whenever you are ready, I’ll be here.” Derek told him, and I sniffled. I could feel the tears falling down my cheeks.
Both of them turned their attention to me.
“I’m sorry, continue your sweet moment. It’s just my stupid hormones.” I told them before I began to fully sob.
They both sat down beside me and wrapped me in their arms, resting their heads on my shoulders.
“Babygirl, why are you crying?” Derek asked me, kissing my neck.
“That was just so beautiful.” I cried.
“Oh, my love,” he whispered.
“Please, go back to your moment. I’m sorry I ruined it.” I told them both, between my sniffles.
“It’s okay, Baby. I think I got the message,” Mason answered.
“I’m going to go give Matt his orders. You two get packed so we can head home.” Derek said. He stood up and kissed me. I could taste Mason on his lips, and it only excited me more.
He pulled away and leaned down to peck James’ head. Derek then turned his attention to Mason and pecked his lips before he left the tent to go find Matt.
“So, how are you feeling?” I asked Mason, nudging his shoulder.
“I feel better.” He breathed out, resting his head on my shoulder again. I rested my head against his.
“And how was the kiss?” I asked him. I was curious to know how he felt about Derek’s actions and the words he spoke.
“I thought that it would have been weird, but it wasn’t. It felt right.” He told me. I turned my head and kissed his forehead.
“There is still no pressure from me, but both of you just gave me blue balls.” I huffed. And Mason let out a laugh.
“It’s weird because when Derek kisses you, it also turns me on,” he admitted.
“Now you know how I feel, but both of you are wrapping it up. I don’t need to be pregnant again soon.” I told him firmly.
“But you look so beautiful with our baby in your arms,” Mason said. He turned his head, kissing my cheek. I looked down at our sleeping boy. He was the most precious thing in my life.
“We make really cute babies, but let’s wait at least a year to have another one. Besides, my body needs time to recover. It’s not everyday you grow and birth a baby all in the same day.” I told him.
“Your body is beautiful. I would have my way with you right now, if you’d let me.” Mason’s voice came out husky and I was instantly turned on again.
“Will you stop?” I said in frustration, causing him to laugh.
“I feel your pain, Baby.” He kissed my cheek and stood up. He started packing up his stuff while I laid down on the bed with James snuggled into my chest.
I feel exhausted from the day we just had, and it’s not even over yet. I still had to portal us home. Mason leaned over me and kissed my lips. I could taste Derek on him, and I was excited again.
“I have to go give Brandon and Liam orders before we leave.” He said before he kissed James’ cheek.
“Is there really that much left to do?” I asked him, yawning.
“Just clean up and transporting the rogues back. Nothing they can’t handle.” He told me.
“If you see Ian or Alex, can you tell them to stop by before they leave?” I asked him, and he nodded. Before Mason left the tent, I called out to him.
“Mason, I’ll need to head to Blue Moon tomorrow to get the house cleaned out and to arrange the funeral for Brad. I’m also going to join the search party to help find his body.” Mason turned back to look at me.
“As long as the doctor gives you the go ahead, we will head there tomorrow.” He said and I let out the breath I didn’t realize I was holding in.
“Thank you, Mason.” I told him with a smile.
“Anything, Baby. Have a little nap. I’ll be back soon.” He said before he left the tent.
James was on my chest while I lay in the middle of the bed. I didn’t realize how tired I was until I started listening to James’ steady heartbeat. I was asleep in no time.
Ashlyn
I woke up to find Ian sitting beside me on the bed. Before I looked at James, I gave him a smile. James, still sleeping, snuggled into my chest.
“I didn’t mean to wake you,” Ian whispered.
“I wanted to see you before you left,” I told him. He leaned down beside me, resting his hand on James’ back.
“Is it pathetic that I wish he was ours?” He whispered. I could hear the longing in his voice.
“Not at all. Not that long ago, I dreamed this was us.” I told him.
“I’m sorry I fucked everything up.” He said, resting his head on my shoulder and I rested my head against his.
“It was my actual father that put the mate spell on us.” I told him.
“What?” He sat up suddenly, turning to look at me.
“Yeah, the former warlock king. He confessed he wanted me to live a normal life. That’s why he put the spell on us.” I told him.
“I won’t lie. I didn’t expect that.” He breathed out.
“I know. And I know this can’t be easy for you. I honestly didn’t expect to have a baby so soon.” I told him.
“He’s beautiful. And he has your cheeks. Those chubby cheeks I fell in love with.” He whispered, leaning in and kissing my cheek.
“When did our lives become so complicated?” He breathed out.
“I don’t know. But hopefully it will calm down. I need a break.” I told him.
“We need to leave. Are you still planning on coming to Blue Moon?” He asked me.
“As long as the doctor clears James and I, we will be there. I need to go shopping, but we should be there tomorrow afternoon.” I told him and he nodded.
He leaned down, kissing James’ cheek before he leaned in to kiss mine. I grabbed his hand. The white light consumed him and faded before he let out a gasp.
“What was that?” He breathed out.
“I just want you to be at peace. I know this is hard and I would be lying if I told you it wouldn’t be hard for me if the situation was reversed. I just want you to be happy.” Looking into his eyes, I told him.
“Thank you Ashlyn. You don’t owe me anything. What I did was awful, and I will regret it for the rest of my life.” He whispered, looking at me.
“I know, and when you are ready. I can gift you a mate bond.” I told him.
“Like how a wolf and a witch are together?” He asked me, and I nodded.
“I’ll keep that in mind,” he said, standing up from the bed.
“I’ll see you tomorrow.” He said before he left.
He left me lying in bed snuggled up to James, thinking about how my life has changed in the last few months. It hasn’t been six months. I have two mates and we have a son. Then with all the other crap that has happened. And this rollercoaster ride hasn’t even ended yet. James pulled me from my thoughts when he stirred. I knew he was getting hungry, my breasts automatically knew.
I had him all ready to go and was feeding him by the time Derek walked back into the tent. He sniffed that air and frowned.
“Why do I smell Ian?” He asked, annoyed.
“He came to say goodbye before he left,” I answered. He sat down beside me and sniffed me. I just rolled my eyes.
“Then why is his scent on James?” He asked.
“Ian kissed his cheek. Why are you being weird?” I asked him. While he was staring at me, I switched breasts. I was glad when Mason entered the tent. He was watching us.
“Ian came by?” He asked and I nodded. Derek let out a growl.
