She reached for his hand and stood. He pulled her in between his legs. He was enchanted when she was about his height standing while he sat. “Don’t be afraid of me. I’ll never hurt you.”

She nodded, but he could still feel the remnants of her fear even when she tried to hide it.

He cupped her face and brought her mouth to his. He inhaled her scent, which aroused him to the point of pain. It was going to be next to impossible to have to wait to strip her and mate with her, marking and making her theirs.

He knew Rowan had the same problem, but he had not taken her. Instead, he had waited for him so they could do it together. Before then, she would have to know what they were and accept her fate as their mate.

Ben kissed her lips softly at first and instantly felt her reaction and arousal build. She gripped his thick wrists in her hands and opened her mouth. She surrendered herself to him at the first touch of his lips.

Ben groaned and pulled her onto his lap, deepening thekiss, letting his tongue overtake her mouth, eating at her until they both moaned in need. He ran his hand up and down her back before he cupped her ass and brought her tighter against his chest.

“Alpha?”

Ben growled at the interruption.

“We have much to discuss,” Rowan reminded him.

Ben raised his head to glance at his brother and saw him smiling but he washighly aroused, too. He glanced back down at her and couldn’t stop himself from retaking her mouth. He cursed when the phone on his desk started to ring, and he had to pull back.

“Rowan, take her while I answer the phone.”

Rowan stood and lifted her from Ben’s lap and pulled her onto his own.

Chapter Seven

Ben walked behind his desk and picked up the phone. He listened for a moment and then hung up. His eyes stayed glued to the couple that would become his family. The three of them would live with each other, have children, and grow old together.

He inhaled and tried to cool the raging arousal racing through his veins. When he felt more in control, he walked to the sofa and sat down beside them.

He looked at Rowan and pulled her legs over his lap. “How is she?”

“Confused, which is natural. She doesn’t know what to think about both of us, making her feel this overpowering need.”

“We have no choice. We must tell her.”

Rowan nodded. “I agree. The sooner she knows, the sooner she can come to grips with it.”

“It’s starting to irritate me when you guys talk about me as if I’m not here,” she complained and sat up. She tried to pull her legs from Ben’s lap and then growled when he held hertight.

Both men grinned at her.

“We’re going to tell you some things that might make you think we’re crazy,” Rowan told her.

She started to look apprehensive.

“But you will never be in any danger with us. I want you to remember that,” Ben said.

Ben cleared his throat, astonished that he was feeling more nervous than he could ever remember. “Both Rowan and I are wolf shifters.”

It took her a moment to let it sink in. “You’re what?”

“We are wolf shifters. Half of us are human, and the other is wolf.”

“You’re werewolves?” she screeched.

Both men cringed.

“No,” Rowan barked. “Werewolves are in movies. They give us a bad name. Wolf shifters are real.”
