My Secret, My Bully, My Mates.
Chapter 0557

We head inside and I move towards the stairs and an arm wraps around my waist.

"Where do you think you're going?" Dakota growls in my ear.

"Upstairs." I point over my shoulder.

"Not that way, Smalls. This way." He throws me over his shoulder and walks to the back of the staircase and we meet up with Cam and Oliver at the elevator.

"I thought you said you weren't ready to go up there." I try to look at them, but Dakota isn't putting me down for anything.

"We said we were waiting for our mate, or I guess mates. Now it's the only place any of us are going to sleep.” Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ ꜰindNʘvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"But..."

"Don't worry Bitty. We just want to sleep tonight, apparently a lot has happened and we haven't slept for almost a month." "Sleeping is all that is happening tonight." Cam finished Oliver's thought.

"You are all doing the twin thing now." I grumble propping my elbow on Dakota's back. "Well, I guess it's a triplet thing now. I wonder why you weren't triplets to begin with. You have all always looked very similar."

"I think one of us needed the Gamma instinct or none of us would have been good enough to keep you close." Cam caresses my face the same way Dakota did earlier. I love the way that they are all touchy feely, but it's also very overwhelming. I have not had this much physical contact with anyone, ever, outside of training. Even when Jena and I basically lived attached at the hip.

I can already feel how attached to them I am. There's no way I could separate from all of them for any length of time. The mate bond is so immediate. I wonder if it works the same for mates who didn't know each other before. Like with Jena and Mateo. She resisted him, but I thought that was more due to her experience with Mike, but maybe she was resisting being with a stranger. I have at least known all of these guys my whole life.

We make it up to the Alpha suite and Dakota lets me down in front of him and turns me around to face the entryway. It's just like I remember. The soft chairs positioned in front of a fireplace and the floor to ceiling bookshelves. The fireplace isn't lit this time, but it is just as beautiful as I remember it.

Dakota sets me down as we move to the right towards the bedroom and bathroom. "You can shower first, I think mom moved all your things up here before we went into the tornado. If we have been gone a month, I can imagine all of our stuff is up here. She likes to reorganize when she worries." He walks me through the bathroom and opens the massive closet to reveal exactly what he predicted. Women's clothes lined one whole side of the closet and mens clothes lined the other.

"I knew she like you more than any of us." Cam laughs. "There's three of us and she has us sharing one side of the closet."

"We can move stuff. I really don't need this much space." I look at him worried.

"Stop, Love. I was kidding. Thanks to your magic and whatever else is going on we all wear the same size and will probably dress alike, just to mess with people even more. I see a lot of long sleeves in our future until we can match the tattoos Oliver has." He leans down to kiss me on the forehead. "Shower and get ready for bed. I'm beat."

I jump in to wash off the dirt and grime from whatever day that was. I was actually worried about taking too long, but I couldn't help it. All of the different jets just hit sore muscles I didn't know I had. I will say it was a little nerve wracking getting in and out though, since there isn't an actual door on the bathroom. It has a doorway so it's not completely open, but there is definitely zero room for privacy. I have to keep reminding myself that these guys are my mates. They are going to see me naked eventually and I can't be timid with three extremely hot mates.

I wrap myself in a towel and head back into the closet. I grab my own underwear and shorts, there's no need to give them false hopes, but I do grab one of the new t-shirts that's meant for all of them and doesn't have anyone's scent on it yet and throw that over my head. I have to sneak past the shower with Dakota's very defined butt on display along with his chiseled back muscles flexing as he rinses off the front of his body.

"If you stand there staring any longer, I'm going to think you want me to pull you in here." He laughs as I let out a little squeak and run into the other room and straight into Oliver.

"It's okay to look Bitty, we're yours to look at, but remember we can feel your desire now too, even if it is muted."

"I was wondering about that." Cam comes over from the entryway carrying a tray with glasses and a plate of something. "Normally new mates are attacking each other, especially after they have marked. The mating part is kind of the natural next step."

"Maybe it's different for us. Well I guess everything has been different for us. But we technically missed the full moon after marking. Isn't that like an Alpha ritual or right of passage?" I ask.

"Yeah, I forgot about that." Dakota comes in toweling his hair. "But we are going to go at your pace. We don't have a reason to rush this and your desire is muted. I can feel you, but it's like from a distance. There's got to be a reason for that."

I know I just ate, but the sandwich Cam made hit the spot as I waited for him to finish his shower. There is no shame in their game as all three of them sport boxer briefs and nothing else to sleep in. At least the last time we were like this they all had t-shirts on. Oh boy.

"You are mine right now." Dakota grabs me. "Those two hogged you the last time."

"That's okay, she'll end up over here eventually." Oliver challenges.

"No way."

"Wanna bet? She flops around like a fish. She'll sprawl across Cam for a bit and end up next to me by morning. Same would happen if she started over here."

"So what you're saying is by letting Cam sleep in the middle we are both getting screwed." The three of them let out deep laughter and I can't help but smile at the idea that they are mine and for right now, no one is trying to take them away.
