idea.

Xander

Oh sh it.

What the f u ck was Alice about to tell us?

She looked from me to Zane to Lanie, then took a deep breath.

“I'm pregnant.”

Time seemed to stop.

This wasn’t possible. We hadn’t slept with her since...

Since Lanie, really. Just the one night we claimed her....

We'd always assumed we'd have pups with Alice. Hell, there was a time I'd actually been excited about the But right now, a cold knot of dread was forming in the pit of my stomach.

“Hello! Did you hear what | said?”

Zane gulped and shot me an uncomfortable look.

Right there with you, brother.

“Alice, how.” | tried to choose my words carefully, but it felt like my brain was short-circuiting. “I don’t think that can be true.”

Alice’s expression turned sour, and Lanie looked confused.

“What he means is...” Zane stepped in, struggling as much as | was. “Are you sure?”

Alice scoffed.

“What the f uck?! Yes, I’m sure.”

She sn atched something out of her back pocket. A pregnancy test.

F uck.

She waved it in front of Lanie’s face..

“It's positive,” Lanie said in a small voice.

| wanted to grab the test from Alice’s hand and stomp it into oblivion, pretend like it never existed.

Where did she get off shoving that s hit in Lanie’s face?

“Don't act like we weren't f ucking constantly before the mating ceremony. Surely, you're not surprised?” 1/3

What the hell kind of twilight zone were we living in right now?

Yes, we'd made a deal days ago that Alice would have the pups and Lanie would care for them, but that all went out the window as soon as we realized we could never hold up our end of the bargain and let Lanie

go.

We couldn’t keep our hands off her, we had to have her in our bed.

And if | was being honest with myself, I'd fantasized about a moment just like this one with Lanie bringing us this news instead of Alice.

G ods, what a f u cking mess.

Alice wrinkled her nose at Lanie.

“| don’t want to hear congratulations from you,” she sneered. “I want to hear it from my mates.”

| watched Zane’s face strain as he tried to muster the words | couldn’t bear to form myself.

But suddenly, Alice’s face went green and she clapped a hand over her mouth as she dove from the room. The gestational period for werewolves was shorter than for humans-only about three months-which meant some she-wolves got much sicker at the start.

| stuck my head out of the office. “Ma!” | called.

My mother entered the room a few moments later.

“Alice is pregnant and sick. Will you watch

ver her?

She glanced from Zane to Lanie then back to me, and | thought she might protest, or at the very least drag me for not being there for Alice myself, but then she nodded.

“lll take care of it.”

Lanie

“Lanie, |...1 don’t know what to say.”

Xander and Zane both walked over to me, somber expressions on their faces.

When Alice flashed the test at me, my heart sank like a heavy boulder dropping to the bottom of the ocean.

But wasn’t this always how it was supposed to go?

I

Alice has the pups, then | do what | want.

And besides, once my memory got wiped by the spell, everything would change.

At least this way Xander and Zane would have something else to love once | was gone.

2/3

| didn’t know how to feel, but | didn’t want to, either.

| just wanted a distraction, one last good moment before all my moments were taken away.

I

stood and untied the silk robe | was wearing, letting it drop to the floor in a pool at my feet.

Xander and Zane both looked at me, their eyes darkening, and a rush of desire shot straight through me as | watched them both adjust their quickly hardening c ocks.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

They wanted me as bad as | wanted them, that was clear by the dizzying swirl of heady scents clouding up the room.

Did it make me evil, getting them in bed like this when Alice had just announced her pregnancy?

Yes, but you won’t remember soon enough, Lily said, pawing at me from deep inside “Right now... they’re yours to take.
