invite anyone into her bed, whether she had a choice or not.
    “Her senses are alive. She can’t go back to work, at least not yet.”
    “No. She can’t,” Alex agreed with Reese.
    “She’s going to have to stay here,” Draco said. “We’re going to have to look after her, take care of her, and offer her the support she needs during this time.”
    One look at Reese, and Alex saw he didn’t like it.
    “None of us are going to try to take her away, Reese.”
    “I’ve wanted that woman for so long.”
    “I know, and you’ll have her.”
    Silence fell between them, and Alex wished he could read minds. He wanted to know what Reese was thinking.
    “Did you know? Did you have this connection to her?” Alex asked.
    “I knew I wanted her, that was it.”
    “What about you?” He turned to Draco.
    “I was always close to her. I hated the thought of anyone hurting her but I just put that down to being a nice fucking guy,” Draco said.
    “So all of us have been wanting Bethany, protecting her, and it’s only now we’re all realizing she’s our mate?” Alex asked.
    They all looked at each other and knew there was no way back from this. Bethany belonged to all of them.
    * * * *
    From the moment Reese took over as Alpha of the Riser Woods pack, Draco had been there by his side, offering him support and his loyalty. He visited the café where Bethany worked, and he’d wanted to ask her out. Of course he held back as he’d noticed his Alpha’s interest.
    Now, there was no holding back.
    Bethany had three shifters at her beck and call.
    “She’s going to be nervous,” Alex said.
    “We have to come up with a plan for this to work.” Reese paced.
    “She’s a wolf. She’s frightened. Her world has just turned upside down.” Draco ran fingers through his hair, remembering everything being heightened, intense, sexual. “She’s going to need us.”
    “Your pack needs to be kept at bay,” Alex said. “If they feel threatened they will kill her.”
    “Mischa knows not to say anything,” Reese said.
    Draco snorted. “You think that is going to keep her at bay, you don’t really know her. She’s been wanting to be your female for a long time. Now that Bethany is in the picture, she knows it’s not going to happen.”
    “I’ll handle it.”
    Reese’s eyes changed color, and Draco held his hands up. He wasn’t interested in starting a fight with his Alpha. All he wanted to do was make sense of everything that was happening.
    His woman, his mate was laying in his Alpha’s bed, and there were two other men with the need rushing through them.
    She screamed so suddenly that they all charged toward the door at the same time. Draco crushed through, and the others followed behind him. Rushing into the bedroom, he saw she was on her knees on the bed, holding her head.
    “I can hear everything. The scratches, the scurrying, the howling. All of it. I want it to stop.”
    Climbing on the bed, he covered her hands with his. He didn’t care if he upset the other two men. Bethany needed him.
    “Take a deep breath and focus. Look at me, Bethany, focus on this room.”
    “I can’t. It hurts.”
    He shouted her name and she gasped, looking up at him. “Focus on me. Listen to my voice. You’re safe now. You’re in Reese’s cabin. You can turn it off. Just turn it off. Forget about them and think of the silence.”
    She closed her eyes and slowly lowered her hands.
    Bethany gasped, opened her eyes, and threw her arms around him, dropping him to the bed. “It’s quiet. It’s so quiet.”
    Draco fell, wrapping his arms around her so that he didn’t hurt her.
    “I’ve got you.”
    “I couldn’t think. I didn’t understand what was happening, and I was so scared.”
    “You’ve got nothing to be afraid of now. We’ve got you.”
    “We?”
    She looked up.
    Alex and Reese were beside the bed.
    “What happened?” she asked. “I know something bad happened. Everything went so dark, and the pain was out of
