Erotic Paranormal Ménage a Trois Romance, M/F/M, werewolves, sex toys, HEA

Nikki Sinclair doesn’t take crap from anybody—especially men. Her own failed marriage proved that men would only use her. It doesn’t matter that she longs for a man to love her, hold her, protect her, and want children with her. It just isn’t meant to be.

Alexander Gregg and Butler Roman, enforcers for Beckett’s pack, are stoic, often brutally serious wolf shifters that no pack member or outside challenger ever crosses. Their lives hold no tenderness, no softness, and no mate to complete their triad.

The Fates have gifted them with Nikki. She brings laughter and tenderness into their lives. And hell no! She is not afraid of them!

They need her to be safe and understand that sometimes giving up control does not mean weakness. All they have to do is convince her to put aside her stubbornness and accept them as her mates and the fathers of her babies.

DEDICATION

 

 

This book is dedicated to a woman who taught her children to work hard, always do their best, and above all else, be kind. My mother continually shows all of her children that family is the most important thing in this life. She sacrificed for all of us and supported our decisions. My sisters, brothers, and I are the people we are because of her.

Her excitement about the publication of my books is amazing. Thankfully, she is the complete opposite of Nikki’s mother. I count my blessings that she is part of my life.

This one is for you, Mom. I love you.

Chapter 1

 

“Damn it!”

Pack enforcer Alexander Gregg’s massive fist connected with the wall of the detention cabin with a resounding crash. His fellow pack enforcer Butler Roman stood behind him, waiting for his friend and triad partner to calm himself. He felt the same frustration. Each day was getting more and more difficult to stay in control and remain focused on their jobs. Since Alpha Jace Beckett and Beta Jackson Scott had found their triad third in Laurie Young, the unmated triad pairs of the pack had been having increasingly difficult days and tortuous nights.

Doc Barrett had told them that their leaders’ triad mating had triggered an actual physical need in the other triad partners of the pack to find their fated mates. But Alexander’s need had started long before the rest. Butler could feel his best friend’s hold on his emotions slipping. For the past few months, Alexander’s ability to keep his anger under control had proven more difficult with each day. Both he and Alex were usually stoic, often brutally serious men that no pack member or outside challenger ever crossed.

Butler watched the shoulders of his triad mate rise and fall with each growl that escaped him. Stepping forward after a moment, he rested his hand on Alex’s shoulder and leaned against the wall to face his friend. Alex’s face was contorted in pain, and Butler knew real fear as he saw that it wasn’t only anger but also deep sorrow that consumed his partner. When Alex looked up at him with raw pain in his eyes, his heart physically hurt, and deep worry filled his own eyes.

“Alex,” Butler whispered. “It’s going to be fine.”

“No, Butler,” Alex growled, unable to keep the anguish from his voice. “It’s not going to be fine. I can’t do my job protecting our pack anymore. We can’t risk the safety of our Alpha Triad because I’m losing control of myself. You know that.”

Butler nodded and leaned forward, waiting until Alex raised his head and met his gaze. “I know,” he whispered more to himself than to his triad partner. “I feel the same loss of control. But we have to fight through this. The Fates will send us our mate when it’s meant to happen. We can’t rush this, Alex.”

Alex reached up and squeezed his triad partner’s shoulder. He knew Butler struggled as he did, but Butler had always been better able to control his emotions. It was his strength and calm reasoning that allowed them both to be the best enforcers of their pack.

Alex nodded his understanding, but he didn’t think he would be able to last much longer without finding the third of their triad. He needed her. Butler needed her. And they needed her now.

“I think we should talk to Doc about giving us some kind of a sedative and have him take us off active duty,” Alex told Butler quietly. “We can’t risk our packmates.”

Butler’s ringing cell phone interrupted the intensity of the moment. Butler pulled it from the case on his belt. He looked at the display, connected the incoming call, and placed the phone against his ear in one fluid movement.

“Yes, Alpha,” he spoke calmly.

Alex watched him silently, struggling to take deep, even breaths to calm his erratic heartbeat. He had a job to do. He would not let the pack down. He could do this.

“Yes, Alpha. We’ll be right there,” Butler said calmly, looking to Alexander to see if his friend had calmed sufficiently to be able to complete the job their alpha had just assigned them.

Butler disconnected the call and hooked the phone onto his belt, watching Alex silently. Alex stood tall and rubbed his hands across his face, making an obvious effort to calm himself.

“What does Jace need?” Alex asked finally, his emotions barely under control.

“He needs us to take Laurie and Julia to the mall,” Butler told him, smiling. “Just what you need, buddy. A shopping trip.”

Alex looked at his friend and growled. Butler was entirely too happy about the assignment.

“Shut up,” he told his wiseass partner.

“What?” Butler asked innocently.

 

* * * *

 

Nikki Sinclair sat on the floor of her closet, her arms wrapped around her knees to draw them tighter against her chest. The tears fell unheeded as great heart-wrenching sobs escaped her. Leaning against the wall of the small enclosure, she rubbed her face against the stack of soft blankets that she had placed there.

A deep ache in her throbbed with need. She needed to be touched. She needed to be held. She needed to be loved. Unfortunately, she knew she would never cave in to her need. She couldn’t search out someone to touch her and hold her. Her life had taught her that no man would ever take the time to really know and love her. She had found out the hard way that she was just a means to an end.

Only her best friend Laurie and Laurie’s two children Mia and Dean had ever truly loved her, and she adored them. She would do anything for them and had often protected them against Laurie’s abusive ex-husband. She cherished her relationship with them and loved that she was Mia and Dean’s adopted aunt. They treated her as if she were their second mother. And that fact was the root of her pain.
