“Izac threw a snowball at me!”
I pressed my lips together to keep from laughing, especially when I spied the boy tiptoeing out from behind a bush, also shifted and wearing clothes.
“Izac?” Zeke called. The pup froze for a second, then turned toward us, a look of trepidation on his little face. “Did you throw a snowball at Merren?” My mate stood and set me down in the empty seat.
His shoulders drooped as he nodded. Merren looked smug, and I frowned at her, causing her to blush.
“Thank you for being honest, pup. But now you’re going to have to deal with the consequences.”
Izac nodded dejectedly again.
Zeke beckoned for Merren to join him as he walked out into our yard. He crouched down and mashed some snow together, shaping it into a ball before handing it to his daughter. Then he made another ball of snow and stood.
He glanced at Merren, and she smiled widely as they both pulled back their arms and let their snowballs fly. They both hit Izac in the chest, and his head flew up in surprise. “SNOWBALL FIGHT!” Merren screamed as she took off running.
Suddenly, the backyard was a flurry of flying snow as the kids, who’d all shifted and dressed at this point, raced around throwing and ducking the icy projectiles.
Ryker, Larissa and Kace’s youngest, was “hiding” in the bushes—not all hidden—so I hurried over and knelt next to him. “Here,” I mock-whispered as I handed him a snowball. I made up another one and looked at him with as serious an expression as I could muster. “One, two, three!” We lobbed our ammunition and laughed when they missed their targets. “I’ll be your teammate,” I told him as I held out my hand. “Ready?”
Ryker squared his shoulders and smiled as he placed his palm in mine. Then we both yelled out battle cries as we darted out into the fray.

“Holy cow,” I muttered as I dropped my cold, wet clothes on the bathroom floor. “So freaking cold!” I shivered as I danced from foot to foot, trying to get warm while I waited for the shower spray to heat up. Finally, it was hot enough for me to step into the glass enclosure, and I sighed as the water poured over me.
Suddenly, a blast of cold air hit my back, and I yelped before it was immediately replaced by a body that radiated extra heat. “Need some help warming up, sweetheart?” Zeke practically purred, his hands sliding up my sides and around to cup my breasts.
“Mmmhmmm,” I sighed as I leaned back against him. “Is Jake watching Elora and Merren?”
“Nope,” he mumbled, using his chin to drag my hair away from my neck so he could rest his lips over his mark.
“What?” I nearly shrieked.
“Relax, Allegra,” he soothed. “Calliope agreed to a sleepover for the girls while Larissa took the boys.”
Zeke pinched both of my nipples, sending streaks of pleasure straight to my pussy, making me moan. Then his words sunk in, and my eyes flew open. “Does that mean…?”
“We’re all alone,” Zeke answered. Then he spun us around, so we were facing the shower bench. He released my breasts to place his hands on my back and push me down, so I was bent over, ass in the air. Before I could say anything, he popped one of my buttcheeks with a loud smack. “Which means I get to hear you scream while I give you your punishment,” he growled before slapping the other cheek.
By the time he was done spanking my ass—and my pussy—I’d screamed through four mind-blowing orgasms. I was about to drift off, cuddled in his arms when a thought occurred to me. “Dang it! We didn’t use—”
“Nope,” Zeke interrupted as one arm curled around to rest the palm of his hand over my belly. The other was already firmly wedged between my thighs. “You graduated in August, and Merren will be four next month. I’m ready for another one.”
We’d talked about having a fourth child, but we’d decided to wait a little longer this time around. I’d finally gone back to college and earned my degree. Not because it was expected of me, but because I wanted to.
“Okay,” I whispered happily as a grin split my face. His hand flexed between my legs, two long fingers sinking into my drenched channel. I moaned as he moved them in and out.
“You need to rest,” he growled even as he thrust his hips forward, rubbing his steel shaft against my bottom. “But I need to fuck you one more time first.”
“Yessss,” I agreed as he removed his fingers and replaced them with his cock, shoving it deep inside me.
Nine months later, we welcomed our second boy, Abel, into the world.
Her Alpha
When Larissa Nash went looking for her best friend, she never expected to find her in a town full of shifters. She didn’t even know they existed until Kace Lowell clued her in on the secret by shifting into his wolf.
