The Full Moon Pack book 2, Hunting Shadows.

Chapter 4. Overworked.

Fortunia Whimpers in her sleep, "Please I gasp waking up feeling desire burning throughout my body. Ronan waits to see if anyone else comes not wanting to be too possessive, his heart rising with desire matching hers. Rick stirs "You do know she's just as much yours as anyone else's, "Possibly even more so Brian groans.

Fortunia's scent drowns them all, Ronan shakes with need matching hers. In a blink he has picked her up walking towards the spring, "I got you baby he whispers capturing her lips in an intense kiss that has her fully awake digging her claws into him making him moan in pleasure.

"Damn, I want that Eli groans, "Why don't you ask her Rick smirks. "I have a hard time balancing it with keeping the control, maybe someday.

"Please Ronan I beg, as he lowers us into the spring cooling us down a bit. He chuckles "Little wildling and nips at my shoulder giving way to spontaneous release I growl and sink my teeth into him in reaction to the surprise to my core. He growls pushing himself into me releasing shadows bending them to hold me in place, so he can grab my shoulders for momentum, "Yes I moan feeling him for the first time fully taking charge of me. More I beg, "You want it to sting little rabbit he purrs teasing me, "Yes I whimper.

"Woah have any of you ever seen them like this Eli questions, Rick and Brian move to the door opening. Rick hisses "That's more than I ever dared give any of them, and I really pushed him to the point where I had doubts if limits were broken for us both. "Phew Brian whistles goddess that's hot, Eli rumbles. His self-restraint shattering, Ronan smirks "Want to taste. Eli's on him so fast Ronan whimpers feeling himself being clawed at, "You tease too much Ronan Eli growls. I will have the full meal when this is over, but focus on her now. Eli pulls Ronan in for a controlling kiss, he lets go and swims to the side watching Ronan using his shadows to pull Fortunia close to another release. She groans "I'm so close I just can't "Help Ronan whimpers and Eli grins dipping in next to Ronan "Together they both remark her at the same time making her slump forward in release and exhaustion.

"Here let me take her Brian says lifting me out of the spring, You're being so brave little one. I blush "I feel so out of control I huff, but also a bit better now. "That's good beautiful, he says wrapping me in a light robe. Is there something you want, "A sandwich and some berry juice would be nice.

"You got it I'll see what I can find, Brian gets up. Ronan comes grinning into the room dressed, "Going somewhere I smirk "Eli and I are just gonna grab some fresh air little wildling. "If that's okay Brian and Rick will stay with you in case you need them, I wave them off, "I understand we have been cooped up for almost 24 hours, Enjoy.

I snuggle into the big beanbag Brian placed me on, and that's when I hear a nice soothing rumble slowly pulling me into a peaceful sleep. "So fluffy I mumble half asleep, rumbling softly.

"Fluffy Brian looks to Rick, "What is going on? Rick smirks "I'm suspecting our little mate might have a bear crush, Brian grins "Yeah that would fit her attraction to older and dominant. "We will see what happens, it's not a problem for me. "I was raised here I'm used to sharing, it's normal here, I have had a taste or two of other shifters so I can relate to the attraction of the exotic Rick replies.

"Not sure how Eli will feel, Ronan will find it just as exciting as her. "Yeah, they ironically are probably the best-matched set of us all Brian laughs offering Rick a sandwich biting into one himself. "Yes, Shadow will be in for a match, he won't win when the time comes. "I hope you're right, mind if I grab a nap he says lifting a slumbering Fortunia and placing her in the bed.

Not at all I'm gonna do the same, we will hear if she needs us.

"That was impressive back there Eli says, he and Ronan are sitting outside the old Wildpaws packhouse brews in hand. Ronan blushes "I was told by the shadow Alfa that I was born to wield shadow, not sure if that's true but it made it easier to accept and wield it. "It took a lot of practice in hiding to get control and more than once I found myself close to surrendering completely. "She pulled me from it the last time by freely marking me. "But now I can shape it as I want, but it's the first time I have used it like that on her. "We need any advantage at this point, to be honest Eli comments.

"Rick says she and Brian are sleeping at the moment, "You must have done a better job than you thought Eli laughs. Around the corner comes Nathan walking with a supply basket from the pack kitchen, sniffs the air and rumbles. "Hey, pops wanna join us for a brew Eli offers, Ronan smirks "That's if you're not too busy.

Nathan growls at him in warning, but then decides on a different approach. "Sure pups, I thought you all would be busy, or did she tire you out already? That earns him minor growls, easy pups only a little teasing. "She nearly drained me, to be honest had to have Eli help me, "She is asleep now seems the last round was just enough. "Probably won't be over yet Nathan grins knowingly, "Do tell Pops how many wolf's heat have you broken?

Nathan smirks, "Do you really want to know that young one he says to Eli. He nods "Yup you do not seem to have a bear only person he laughs. Nathan rumbles you're right, I haven't kept track round 10 maybe 15. Eli and Ronan stare in disbelief, "So the bear charm is good for something after all Eli grins. "Prey do tell how many white wolves Ronan smirks, The last 5 known ones Nathan smirks. "Alone Eli asks, "Yeah I'm not much for sharing my honey Nathan rumbles.

"Could you if you had to though Ronan asks, Eli links Ronan "What are you getting at. "Hang on I promise to explain later. Nathan looks to be in deep thought, he starts humming a gentle tune for a few minutes, "Sorry had to reply to someone's call. "To answer your question would probably take some time to get used to, but you all seem to have it working. "It helps that we all get alone time when possible Eli says, and we also have each other. "True and I suppose you all need a break from each other once in a while as well, "Indeed it would just end up as a full-on dominance display otherwise.

"While she's more insatiable than any of us we do need to run a nearly three hundred member pack to and at the moment we are lucky we are four, plus having a Gamma and Beta that understands the situation Eli states. Not great when all three Alfa's get taken out in one go Ronan laughs, even if I'm not officially one yet.

Nathan ponders the conversation, "Thanks for the company pups I have been feeling of today. I'll see you around, don't overwork yourself with the honey he grins and leaves with his box.

"Spill Eli grins at Ronan, "I suspect he is the reason for her power nap and current sleep. "How so? "I think she unknowingly accepted his heartsong and he must have felt compelled to her. "Didn't you see how his eyes glowed when she lost control yesterday? "No, I was a bit distracted by her scent suddenly filling the entire packhouse Eli growls. "We will have to see what happens, I'm not gonna judge any of them Eli says. "It will take some getting use to his scent on her though he laughs, "Agreed but we get to put ours back the Ronan smirks.
