Was it her desire or just her body's natural reaction? That was the question that plagued me. Because goddess, I wanted her. Not just for my selfish sexual desires but for her. I wanted to shower her with love and affection, and I wanted it in return. The gift of a mate is beautiful; the countless balls I've been to was my testimony of it. Hell, my own parents. Their eyes only for each other and their love buried deep within their souls.

Seraphina's initial reaction with Dax coming behind her startled her. I feared she would stop and ask for him to back up, but she took him on with ease, to my surprise. Her peach nestled right up against his crotch, and I heard him curse silently.

Seraphina got lost in the music; hell, we all did. The touching on the outer part of her clothes was enough, but of course, Dax wanted more and was willing to push the envelope. His nose trailed her bare neck on the sleeveless portion. Kissing her freckled skin made Seraphina's nipples instantly harden, and my stupid hand had a mind of its own. Taking my thumb, I flicked it gently, causing her to let out a whimper. Goddess, it was hard, perky; taking it into my mouth would bring me the most pleasure.

Dax kissed her shoulder and up her neck, her head leaning back on his shoulder. My mouth went straight to the unoccupied side and immediately started sucking. This was the damn hottest thing I have ever done, better than any of those pornos we watched for, 'educational purposes’ to train ourselves for our mate. Our hands never touched another female; these hands, my cock was just for her.

My hand went down her hip and to her thigh; the dress was riding up higher, leaving her pale leg exposed. Seraphina's skin was so damn soft, so silky, and damn near perfect. The people around us faded away as I reveled in her scent, her touch.

Seraphina's hand went to the back of my head, squeezing my tousled hair. Groaning into her neck, I pulled her thigh up to open herself, so my cock could rub on her most intimate place. Dax took her moan for a sign to continue and slid his hand underneath her breast to cup it, and used his lips to suck right below her neck. Seraphina's face began to turn, and I could feel Dax' excitement through our brotherly bond. He was going to kiss those damn lips.

A voice clearing broke me from our trance. Rage coursed through my brother and me as we glanced to look at the intruder. My lips were red and puffy from the giant hickey I left on Seraphina's neck. It was the closest I would get to mark my mate, and I damn will do it when she lets me.

"Can I cut in?"

Fucking-hill-Billy-Jonas-the-weak-ass-Werebear.

Dax and I snapped our heads at his annoying voice. Seraphina was knocked out of her pleasure haze as she shook her head and tried to back away. Dax gripped her waist tightly as her arms came up to shield her chest. Dark marks on her neck from our earlier ministrations made my Wolf howl in victory.

My eyes glowed as Jonas realized he had done a major fuck-up. "Oh, damn," he stumbled backward. His quick curse and his step-back were only for a moment as he stepped forward again to grit his teeth.

"I don't know what you guys are doing here, but I staked my claim on her first." Seraphina balled her fists up and elbowed Dax in his gut. A groan was let out before Seraphina's piercing gaze landed on the lot of us.

"Now see here, I am claimed to no one." she snapped.

"Those hickies on your neck say otherwise," Zoey butted in. Seraphina slapped her hand on her neck and blushed red.

"I… I…was just caught up in the moment," she rushed as she stepped away from the group. Grabbing her cardigan, I run to catch up to her and hold her arm. Seraphina jerks away and scowls.

"No one," she hissed again.

"Please wait, Seraphina. Please." My voice pleading. "We just want to get to know you." Seraphina's confusion played on her face as she glanced back at Dax.

"I'm Dax," his hand went out to grab Seraphina's, but she backed away. Looking between the both of us, she shook her head.

"I'm not into whatever this is," she waved her hands around at us. Her friends were staring from afar, Maryann obviously pissed. Seraphina grabbed her cardigan again and pulled the keys from it. "By Zoey, happy birthday," she shouted and stomped, rushed out the door, avoiding the stares following her.

"That went well," Dax growled. Turning on his heel, he stomped right back to the piece of shit who caused this mess. Jonas held his ground while Dax gripped him by the collar and pulled him outside.

Our breaths could be seen in the night air; Jonas was thrown in the alley beside the bar into a pile of trashcans. "The hell is wrong," Jonas stopped speaking as we both glared at him with our Wolves' eyes. His body trembled. That's what I thought.

"Seraphina is our mate; you should stop pursuing or whatever you are doing."

"Alphas?" Jonas stuttered.

"Royal Alphas if you want to get technical." Three Wolves came out the back doors, glancing up and down the alley; the group leader strode towards us, head bowed and neck bared.

"Your highnesses, I'm sorry, I didn't realize-" I snapped my fangs together at the dark-skinned Wolf.

"Enough," Dax waved. "You did well. You are with the Red Wolves Pack, correct?"

The Wolves nodded. "I'm Lonato, head warrior. Beside me are Rochester and Salem. We are tasked to check the town since it is on the outskirts of our territory and considered neutral ground with the Bears." Lonato eyed Jonas, "he's a bit of a troublemaker, that one."

Jonas still sitting on the ground while he grunted in disapproval. He was no longer the pretty boy on the prowl for some helpless human to satisfy his rut.

"You ruined the first time our mate saw us as a human, cub. Do you realize what a mess you've put us in?" Dax bared his teeth as Jonas flinched back. Dax and I weren't just Werewolf royalty, but shifter royalty. He was in deep shit, and his Sleuth was now at risk of losing their territory.

"Hey man, I didn't know," he waved his hands. "Wait a minute, are you guys her Wolves?" Dax and I looked at each other, annoyed and grunted.
