“Ugh, okay, not what I was thinking was going to happen.” I wipe my face and he wines before popping his head down in my lap. He bumps my hand with his snout, over and over again. “Is someone feeling needy?” I ask playfully and when he nuzzles into my hand I give in. I run my fingers along the soft fur between his ears and his large body begins to purr. We sit like this for a while, just a huge Alpha wolf and me, petting his fur like it’s a normal everyday thing. The warm evening sun and the purring gets to me, and before I know it I’m dozing off.

When I wake it’s dark and I wonder why I’m not cold. I also wonder by I feel like I’m being squashed. It’s only when I open my eyes I realise, I’m surrounded by not one, but four Alpha wolves. My head his resting on Maddox, Hawk still has his head in my lap, Flint is on my stomach and Talen is curled around my feet.

“Well, this is just adorable!” Aleisha whisper shouts beside Tommy who looks like he wants to burst out laughing. “Smile!” She says as she evidently takes a photo on her phone.

“Uhh, what time is it?” I rub my eyes and attempt to move, with no luck.

“It’s past dinner. We were wondering where ya’ll had run off to. Then we find you all here snuggled up under a tree. Oh it’s just the sweetest thing, Mum is going to love this!” I hear the telltale sign of a message being sent.

“Did you just send that to your Mum!?”

“Yeah! And all of you guys too, now you’ll have a cute as hell screensaver! Look!” She turns her phone, and I must admit, it is kind of cute. I didn’t even realise my hands where splayed across Hawk and Flint as if I’m holding them close.

“Okie dokie then…Uh…Can you guys help me get up?”

“Hell no!” She replies taking a step back.

Tommy shakes his head vigorously, “No bloody way am I waking up four Alpha wolves to tell them they need to move off their mate. Nope, no way, I like my head where it is, attached to my body.”

They leave, despite my pleas for help and I’m stuck here alone…well not really.

“Hey, guys… guys,” I try. They move slightly, but only to snuggle in further. “Flint….” I rub and wiggle his head. His eyes slowly open. “Hey, I uh…I need to pee.” He slowly gets off me and I feel a chill instantly. He nudges Hawk and their eyes glaze over quickly. Hawk then wakes Talen and I roll over onto my knees to look at Maddox. My big Alpha wolf. Wait. Mine? I stroke his fur from his head down to his back a few times while the others hover around. “Hey big guy, time to wake up.” I whisper in his ear and he stirs and opens his eyes. He looks around at us and stretches like a cat who just had the best nap of his life before lazily getting up. I grab my discarded laptop and start the walk back to the house with the wolves flanking me. Maddox in front, Talen behind, Flint and Hawk to my side. They stay close enough that their fur brushes my skin, Maddox’s tale flicking along my stomach and for once, I’m feeling…something…something I cant

explain, but it feels nice to be surrounded by them.

To my surprise, they don’t shift when we reach the back porch, they just continue to follow me inside in their giant wolf forms.

The staff bow their heads as we make our way through, and I have to stifle a laugh at how odd this must look. When we get to our bedrooms hallway I open each of their doors for them before heading to my own. Some absolute angel has cleared all the bags and clothes from the floor, with a peak into the wardrobe I see everything has been neatly organise into a section of the massive space, clearly leaving enough room for four more people’s things. A bath sounds nice right about now. So I grab a comfy pair of silk pyjamas and head to the bathroom. It’s not until I’m cleaned and dressed for bed that I realise how little I’ve eaten

today and my stomach makes that evident with its growling. I’m not sure where the guys are but I know we all missed dinner. I head to the kitchen with the idea that it might bring back a little bit more of normality for me to be able to prepare something. I find all the ingredients I need quickly and set to work. There’s even an iphone dock where I can play music, now that’s something Tolaris pack’s kitchen needed.
