Jessi nodded and said, “
Sure, okay.” She then turned towards Megan and said, “Megan, Theo is going to help me.”

Megan nodded as the two of them got
up from the picnic table and headed back towards the house. She was excited to get to spend a little time alone with Theo since she hadn’t been able to just yet. As they walked, she turned to him and said, “Daryn told me about your situation with your pack. I’m sorry that you find yourself in it. I’m sure leaving wasn’t easy on you either.”


Actually, I think I found it easier than he did.” He said.


What do mean?: Jessi asked as she opened the screen door.

Theo walked through it and as he did he said, “
Well, as my older brother, he shielded me from a lot of things as we grew up. With our parents gone, all we had left was one another. In the end, it was an easy decision for me to leave with him. Like Daryn, I do not believe that the direction the pack is headed in is good in the long run.”

As Jessi listened to Theo, she began to realize how truly blessed she was. As far as she knew, no one had ever been forced to choose between their family
’s wishes and their happiness. Her family could be difficult at times but it was nothing compared to what the brothers were dealing with.


Do you ever think you’ll return home one day?” she asked as they walked down into the basement.

His face turned sullen at her question. He swallowed hard and cleared his throat, obviousl
y choking back emotion. Whatever Daryn had managed to suppress, it was apparent that the wounds were still fresh for Theo.


I’d be lying to you if I said I didn’t Jessi. But the fact is that we can’t - at least not right now. At the same time I am hopeful for the future. Of course, that all depends…”


On what?” she asked.


Uhhm… I really can’t say. I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have brought it up.”


You can tell me,
please.
” She begged.


No Jessi, I cannot. Please do not ask me again.” He said as he started to turn away from her.”Look, I… we should go back to the others.”

She touched his shoulder and said softly, “
Please… I… I want to help you.”

After a moment
’s pause, she could feel his body begin to vibrate from a low growl and he said, “Jessi, my wolf… He is not stable in your presence. I cannot promise he can be restrained. Please, let’s just go…”


Then
don’t
restrain him, Theo.”

Jessi could not believe the words that came from her mouth. This was
not
something that she did. This was not something
that was done
. But Daryn and Theo were changing her in the brief period of time they’d spent with each other.

Without speaking, he slowly tu
rned back to face her. Like Daryn, he loomed large over her petite, curvy frame. Darkness came across his features and hunger traced along his lips. Growling, he began to move down towards her.

She leaned back against the table upon which the cornucopia of
sinful sweets rested. His large hands moved down on either side of her plump hips and pressed flat on the tabletop. Jessi’s nipples hardened like frosted rosebuds as he moved within inches of her mouth.

Suddenly, she thought of Daryn as she looked into hi
s eyes.

Oh my God. What am I doing? This is crazy! You can
’t kiss them both…

Desperate, she stammered, “
Wait, I…”

But, his gaze was too intense for her to hold and she dropped her eyes away. He ducked his head and followed hers, slowly drawing her pupils b
ack up to face his once again.


Yes Jessi? Did you want to say something?”


I… Yes. I mean, no. I don’t…” she said quietly.

His mouth turned up just the tiniest of fractions and formed a small smile. He then asked, “
Do you want to tell me about your kiss with Daryn?”

At first, her entire body flushed red with embarrassment. But then a split second later, indignation took its place.

“Wait? He
told you
about that?” she said with a hint of anger in her voice.


Of course.” He said simply. “Why wouldn’t he? After all, there are no secrets between us. We share
everything.

Everything?

“Tell me Jessi…” He said as he licked his lips and moved closer to her. “Do you taste as delightful as Daryn said?”

This was crazy. Kissing
two brothers
and in her parent’s basement no less! Jessi was normally level headed but the moment was getting to her. She was losing herself in his presence and as much as her mind thought otherwise, her body was desperate for the taste of more wolf flesh.

She blinked softly and said, “
I don’t know.”


Let’s find out…” he said lowly.

His eyes narrowed and a knowing grin flashed briefly across his face just before he crashed against her mouth. The force of his impact was so terrific that it nearly sent her flying into the German Chocolate cake behin
d.

Out of instinct, Jessi
’s comparatively small arms flung up around Theo’s thick upper body. Unlike his brother, Theo’s kissing was less focused and more exploratory. Before she’d realized what had happened, he’d broken free from her mouth and began to lick and suck the length of her exposed neck.

Goose pimples rippled across her flesh and she leaned her neck against his stubble in an effort to make him stop -
or not.
  Perhaps at some unconscious level, Jessi was more receptive to his wandering mouth due to the self restraint she was forced to exhibit the prior evening.

Whatever the case, she could sense that she was giving in - and doing so quickly.  For the next several minutes Theo moved subtly between her lips
and neck lavishing her relentlessly as he went. In much the same way a gifted virtuoso elicits exquisite melodies from an instrument, Theo’s talented tongue brought forth a never ending stream of moans, groans and grunts from her.

As the exchange continue
d, Jessi was suddenly overwhelmed by a vengeful stickiness between her thighs. The aching which Daryn had fostered less than twelve hours before gnawed at her like a feral beast. It was almost impossible to restrain her need for satisfaction. Her pussy didn’t care who it was or when they did it so long as it was done.

It
was done waiting…

To her shock, Jessi found herself suddenly ripping at his clothing. Her excitement had driven her nearly to the point of a full shift. Hints of claw emerged as she tore a
t the thin fabric of his shirt. Her panties simmered in approval of her boldness and reassured her that her actions would yield the satisfaction it needed.

As his shirt flew open, rivers of muscles flowed forth into her greedy fingers. As she groped and ki
ssed him, her eyes widened at his counteroffensive. Without warning, he reached under her dress and hiked it up around her waist. In the process he gripped firmly onto the ample flesh of her hips.

His hands continued to snake their way lower until they had
fully possessed her round buttocks and clenched them. Suddenly, he lifted her petite frame up onto the table and she slapped against it with a definitive thud.


Straddle me. Now.” He ordered.

She dutifully did as instructed and wrapped her legs around hi
s thick torso. Her entire body twitched with anticipation as his hands moved from her hips and began to work their way between her thighs. Her channel flowed like a mountain stream after a spring thaw and she knew once her panties came off, she would be unable to stop herself.

She couldn
’t believe this was happening and of all places, her parent’s basement! His fingers moved up to her lace undergarments and hooked around them. Her last chance for resistance was upon her. But, as she tried to form a syllable of protest, he acted and began to slide them downwards.

She gasped and knew that it was too fast.

She
shouldn’t
do it…

But she couldn
’t help it and with each passing second she continued to fail while he continued to succeed. Her panties hit low around her hips and before she even realized it, she started to raise her hips up towards him.

Nearly bottomless, Jessi could feel the moment of final surrender upon her when suddenly, the basement door opened. The pair froze instantly. There was an awkward silent
pause and then her mother called out, “Jessica! Get a move on!”

They stopped awkwardly, Jessi wiped away the evidence from her lips and half mumbled, “
Okay… Uhhm, sorry Mom… be right up.”

The nearly busted lovers looked at each other with widened eyes and
hoped that the worst had passed. However, in the next second her mother’s foot pressed into the first stair at the top of the flight.


Everything alright?” she asked as the leaned on century old wood. It groaned threateningly under her foot.

Quickly Jesse
stammered and said, “Yes, fine. I was just looking for the… serving set.”


It’s right where it always is honey. Now come on back up, everyone is waiting.” Her mother replied.


Okay, be right up Mom.” Jessi said as convincingly as she could.

An
awful silence
hung in the air. Jessi’s heart raced as she imagined her mother coming down the stairs to find her little girl half naked.

Please, please…

“Okay…” her mother replied. “We’ll be waiting.” Finally, the stair creaked from the release of her foot and a split second later the door closed mercifully behind her.


Wow.” Theo said as he quickly tried to make himself look presentable. “Close call.”


Yeah.” She replied.


Jessi, I hope that didn’t make you uncomfortable.” He said as he moved around the table to lift the immense cake.


No, not at all. Well, my
mother did
but not you. That was…
amazing.
” She cooed.


It was for me as well.” He said.


Although…” she said as something occurred to her.


Yes?” he asked.

Her eyelids narrowed and with a hint
of sarcasm she said, “I
will
have to have a little chat with your brother. This whole kissing slash sharing thing will take some getting used to.”

He laughed and replied, “
Oh, that’s nothing.”


What does that mean?” she asked.


You’ll find out. Now come on - there’s some hungry bears out there.” He replied with a wink.

Jessi smiled but the truth was that it masked some nervousness. She wasn
’t the world’s most experienced person when it came to matters of romance. But she was no dummy either. Although he hadn’t confessed to anything specifically, his statement was enough of a clue to get her mind questioning.

She wondered what would it be like…
to be…
shared?

For now that question would have to remain unanswered. The last thing Jessi wanted was to have her m
other come back so they finished gathering everything up and headed back outside.

The next couple of hours passed quickly. Her family had begun to bond quite easily with the brothers. Even her mother had warmed to them completely, actually going so far as
to
hug them
both. The whole scene was pretty unbelievable to Jessi.

The sun had begun to set and one by one, relatives and friends began to say their goodbyes. Jessi could not have imagined things possibly going much better than they had. A wave of relief
washed over her as she sat at the picnic table and enjoyed the warm summer’s evening breeze on her face. But, in the midst of her bliss, she realized she’d forgotten something…


Oh no!” Jessi exclaimed.


What?” her mom asked.


I have to run home and let Bella out. I totally forgot about it.”


Oh, poor Bella! Honestly Jessi, when are you going to get that poor dog trained so she can come over?” her mother said.

The problem was that Bella was
not
the world’s best listener. This was
especially
the case when bunnies or squirrels happened to be anywhere within sight. If there
were any
, there was no stopping her from running off. And since Jessi hated to leash her up, she usually opted to leave her at home instead of bringing her to wildlife central … also known as Mom’s house.
