True Feelings
Keaton drove to Odette’s. When I got their Ken was clearly waiting for me. I asked, “Can I help you?” Ken admitted, “I don’t know. I’m trying to keep an eye on your girlfriend, but she disappeared for a while. Maybe ask where she went.”
I laughed, “I won’t lie and tell you that’s high up on my list of things to ask when I get up there.” Ken rolled his eyes, “Fine. Katie came back with bags from a sex shop. There were a lot of condoms in them. Try not to use them all tonight.” I left him in my dust.
Channing purred in excitement. The elevator would’ve taken too long so I took the stairs three at a time. I knocked on Odette’s door, already salivating. Channing growled, “Break the door down.” I told him, “We can’t do that.” Channing snarked, “Grandpa owns the building so yes we could.”
Odette told me to come in. My brain stopped working the second I saw her. My mate looked sexy with swords. Ok, I officially need to skip driving lessons. We should just have weaponry lessons because this look was hot and I could drive her anywhere she wanted.
Channing snorted, “We’ve only given one driving lesson, mate still can’t drive.” He had a point, but we had other priorities. Besides, we could drive her and Odette could be our passenger Princess forever. That had merit. Channing snickered in my head.
Odette and I started making out. I was gone the second she sucked on my tongue. I pushed her up against the wall. I heard her panicking and screaming my name. I pulled back wondering what was going on? Before I could ask Odette slammed her lips back on mine.
I groaned, “Odette.” I ripped her Deadpool outfit open before sucking her nipple into my mouth.
My mate tasted heavenly. Odette began singing her song, and I lost all semblance of control.
We didn’t manage to leave the living room.
I didn’t remember getting to her bed, but I felt my head on the pillow.
I woke up to Channing’s angry voice, “Get up!” I startled awake finding Odette beside me. It looked like she’d been crying. What happened? I linked Channing, “What’s wrong?” My wolf was still growling, “Something is wrong with mate. Protect her!”
I asked, “From what?” Channing replied, “I don’t know. It’s like something is pulling her from us. Wake her up!” Shit! I began to talk to Odette. After several moments she opened her eyes and Channing calmed down.
My need for my mate snapped when she said my name. I noticed she’d bought condoms from Eric’s company. I wondered how she stumbled on them. Keith linked me, “So school, it’s this place we attend during the weekdays. I realize you don’t know this because you are not here.”
I replied, “We aren’t going to make it. I don’t know what’s going on, but we can’t stop. I can’t stop; I need her.” Keith linked, “Alrighty then, we will handle it. The basketball season got suspended indefinitely due to rogues.” What the fuck?! Whatever.
After a few hours Keith replied, “Handled. Immy is getting Katie’s homework and Clara has yours. Don’t forget you’re picking up Allison and Arden.” I did remember that. Somewhere in the recesses of my brain, that was a thing I knew.
When we finished, we went to check on Tatum who was perfectly fine. I asked Channing, “What is this dog? It’s not actually a dog, is it?” Channing answered, “It doesn’t seem to be a normal dog, but it’s not a person shifter type thing if that’s what you mean.”
I snorted, “I already told her to shift and she didn’t.” Channing told me, “I can communicate with Tatum. I’m not sure what’s going on, but so far, I’m going with highly intelligent dog that is here to protect our mate.” That was weird.
I took Tatum outside. Ken winked at me as I walked by. I asked, “Did you take Tatum out?” Ken frowned, “No, you would’ve heard me come in and I would’ve linked you if I did.” I sighed, “Alright.” I took Tatum outside towards the woods.
Once we were alone, I asked, “Ok, are you a dog?” Tatum tilted her head and yipped. I sighed asking, “Are you here to protect Odette?” The dog jumped and excitedly yipped. I asked, “Are you just a dog? My wolf doesn’t think you’re a person. Are you?” Tatum shook her head.
I asked, “So, you have no human half?” Tatum shook her head again. I narrowed my eyes, surmising, “But you’re not a normal dog.” Tatum happily yipped. Ok, I could live with that. I told her, “Interesting. Let’s get back.” Tatum went to the bathroom, and we got back into the apartment.
I got Tatum a cold piece of pizza which she happily started to eat. Odette was in the shower. Channing chuckled, “Who can resist such a tempting situation?” Not me. I didn’t even want to. My mate gave me head then didn’t want me to return the favor because we would be late to pick up my siblings.
I was literally stunned because that had never happened to me. Plus, Odette really seemed to enjoy giving me head. I could smell her arousal. I couldn’t figure out why she was prioritizing picking up my siblings over her own orgasm.
Channing was purring in my head. We were in love with Odette for so many reasons, but she kept making us fall for her even more.
Channing agreed, “Mate is the best.” She was and the fact I dealt with that other shit was mind boggling.
What had I been thinking? The sex with Lisa wasn’t enough to stay around for, that’s for sure.
When we reached pack lands Benji linked me, “HOT DAMN! Look at her! WOWZA! I would ask for condoms too. You get you some, Keaton Daniels! I am so proud of you right now. I’m actually fanning my face. I have quite literally never been prouder of you.”
“You jumped so far from your ex-girlfriend. This one looks nice. Your mom is going to be so pissed she’s not here. My dad just popped beside me so yeah. This is happening. The picture of you getting your mojo is coming together for me. By the way, the pack link is on fire.”
I checked the pack link noting Benji was right.
Channing snorted, “Of course he is, Spark has Fairy blood, he can’t lie.
” Spark was Benji’s wolf. Dad linked me, “Your girlfriend is at the pack house?!” I answered, “No, we are the school not the house. Technically, we are in my truck. We are just picking up Allison and Arden, like you asked.”
Dad growled, “Keaton Frank Daniels, why don’t you like me?
Your mother is going to flip out.” I told dad, “I love you, old man.” Dad snorted.
Emmett linked, “ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME RIGHT NOW, KEATON?!” I replied “I was asked to pick up Allison and Arden. People were there when this occurred.” Emmett growled back at me. Everyone was very testy today.
Malachi linked me next, “Why?” I asked, “Why what?” He growled in reply. Zach linked afterwards, “Just so you know, a Gamma appreciates this. People should get a taste of the Gamma life every now and then, by not being in the loop.” I dryly replied, “Happy to help, Zach.” Zach chuckled.
Carter linked, “YOUR GIRLFRIEND IS AT THE PACK HOUSE?!” I replied, “Hello, little brother. No, she’s in my truck at the pack school.” Carter snorted. Colin linked, “You shit!” I snorted, “I love you, brother.”
Uncle Cameron linked me, “Your girlfriend is a knockout, Keaton.” Channing snorted, “Our Uncle could not have sounded less like he didn’t believe mate is just our girlfriend if he tried.” I got that. I answered Uncle Cameron, “Thanks.”
He asked, “Are you bringing her to the main house? Regan said she’d put out some snacks that Sally made earlier.” I answered, “No, we are going back to my GIRLFRIEND’S place.” Uncle Cameron replied, “I think you’ll find everyone is going to say it like girlfriend.” Uh huh.
Aunt Regan linked me, “If you leave before I run over there and see her, I’ll get you Keaton Daniels.” I snorted, “Mom might get you for seeing her.” Aunt Regan retorted, “No, she won’t.” I saw my aunt next to my uncle, not even two minutes later.
I teased her, “Are you happy now?” Aunt Regan shot back, “I would be happy if I got an introduction.” I was tempted but something stopped me.
I told my aunt, “Later.” She huffed at me.
Uncle Cameron linked, “You know everyone here on pack grounds ended up over here to catch a glimpse of her, right?” I didn’t answer my uncle that time.
Colton linked, “Ya know, sometimes I don’t think you like me.
Other people think it’s them, but it’s me.
I’m WITH your brother and he’s practically foaming at the mouth.
Lead Alpha’s hold it together so us other Alpha’s can be all doom and gloom.
You’re messing with vibe, Keaton.” I snorted, “I’m simply doing as asked.
” Colton scoffed, “Uh huh. Ok, vibe killer.” I nearly laughed out loud.
Allison linked me, “Is it true? Katie is here?” I answered, “You wanted to meet her.” My little sister squealed so loudly in our link I nearly winced. Both my siblings ran out to the car. Arden was practically radiating his smugness.
I linked him, “What is that smug look?” Arden answered, “Everyone will be jealous. They understand Keith has met her because you go to school together. I get to meet her because Allison wanted to. Colin and Carter are seething with jealousy.” I snorted and we took off.
Allison linked me, “Could I paint a mural in her apartment? Please.” I replied, “You can ask.” Allison was thrilled that Odette let her pick the color for the living room. Arden said, “With Allison loving her so much the whole family will. You know that, right?”
I answered, “You’re too smart for your own good, pup.” Arden replied, “I like her too, but I don’t believe for a single second that her name is Katie. She wanted to tell us whatever it was. It starts with an O, that much I know.” He really was too smart.
Arden and Allison were too excited to contain their speed getting everything done. I didn’t actually mind. I was hoping Odette would ask but sadly she didn’t. Odette agreed my siblings could paint murals. With that move, my mate definitely cemented my youngest siblings love for her.
