"Ethan only wants me where no one can see. I'm his greatest shame."
"You know it's not like that," Ethan protested as Roary growled and stepped between us.
"Then why are you acting like you're ashamed of her?" he snapped. "Rosalie deserves a mate who will stand up and tell the whole world how much he loves her, not a cowering creature like you."
"Why are you so interested in what me and my mate do?" Ethan snarled at him and Roary stepped forward like he would happily take him on. "Is it because you want her too, by any chance? Because I've seen the way you trail around after her like some desperate little snake-"
"I'm her friend," Roary growled. “And I won’t let you treat her like shit.”
I wasn’t sure whether to be hurt or touched by that one, so I just held my tongue.
"A friend who wants to bone her," Sin chuckled, using my hand to spin me beneath his arm before tugging me close again and I smirked at him as I placed my hand on his chest and looked up into his mischievous eyes.
"You don't know what you're talking about," Roary snapped at him and Sin just laughed.
"Oh, I think I do. My magic reserves are currently being fed up nicely by the way the two of you are panting for our girl. Why don't you just stop wasting time on fighting and let's have a competition to find out which one of us can turn her on the most - which I will be able to judge accurately by the way."
"Get your fucking hands off of my mate, Incubus," Ethan snarled, trying to shove Roary aside so that he could get to Sin, but Roary shoved him right back again and the two of them bared their teeth at each other like they were about to throw down.
"I would if she wanted me to," Sin taunted, lifting my hand to his mouth and placing a kiss on the inside of my wrist that made a gasp escape me as heat spread along my flesh.
“You’re such a shit stirrer,” I accused and he just smirked at me like that title pleased him.
"I mean it!" Ethan yelled, lurching towards me again as Sin failed to release me and I made no move to escape him. He managed to push Roary aside so that he could grab me by the arm and I growled at him in a protest which he utterly ignored.
Ethan tugged me away from Sin and pushed me behind him before snarling at the other guys and baring his teeth. I had no doubt that if he could shift right now there would be a big ass black Wolf standing before me, guarding his property. And as much as I wanted to protest the idea of him claiming me without my agreement, I did kinda like the idea of the three of them fighting over me.
"Wait," I said, stepping forward and placing my hand on Ethan's arm and the three of them looked my way like they thought I was about to choose between them or something. "Can the three of you take your shirts off before you start fighting? And if anyone happens to have some baby oil with them…" I bit my lip at that idea and Sin offered up a dirty laugh before tearing his tank off and tossing it to the ground. Oh yes, this idea had some serious fucking merit to it.
"Anything for you, wild girl, just tell me the winner gets the first turn between your thighs and I'll lay these two fuckers out for you in five minutes flat."
"Unlikely," Roary growled, flexing his muscles as he glared at Sin but sadly kept his shirt on.
"Deal," I countered, tugging at Ethan's shirt in an attempt to drag it off of him and smirking at him as he turned to scowl at me.
"This isn't a joke," he growled, all alpha male and angry and my thighs clenched together at his tone.
"Then why don't you win and show them all who owns me, anima gemella?" I purred.
"I'm down for watching that," Sin agreed and I grinned.
"I'm not looking to fuck her or watch anyone else fucking her," Roary snapped and Sin just burst out laughing.
"Then you and your cock are in serious disagreement. Maybe the two of you need some couples counselling with that old Sheep Shifter in group therapy?"
Roary growled and I couldn't help but look his way, wondering why he was so
