Even if she hadn’t been able to smell her, Celeste would have known the moment Sally stepped into the office space. She could feel her presence all the way down to her bones.

Hunter was enamoured with her; he had spun the tale of Sally defending her virtue into a story of epic proportions. After the roller coaster of the last few days, Celeste was delighted to see the joy Hunter got out of this, even if it painted him as the bad guy in Sally’s eyes.

Celeste wondered what the girl would tell her when they finally got a moment to talk. As she approached her, Celeste smiled to herself. Her little mate was brave considering the conversation she’d had with Hunter yesterday,

“Mrs North?”

Celeste bit back a groan. The light, warm way she said her name was addictive, Celeste could listen to her all day. She turned from the photocopier, taking in her black pants and turquoise, long sleeved top as well as the waves of red curls falling over her body.

She couldn’t stop the smile that bloomed on her face if she tried. And the way Sally blushed just made it even more worth while.

“I’m your husband’s new PA. Sally-“ 

“Smith.” Celeste rolled part of her name around on her tongue, making her purr. Sally’s blush only appeared to deepen as she spoke. Even if she didn’t know what it was, the mate bond was affecting her to.

“I am aware,” she held out her hand to shake Sally’s, desperate for any sort of touch. “Congratulations on the position.”

Her eyes widened when their hands met and Celeste watched her teeth take her bottom lip, arousal flooding her. Sally could feel it, Celeste knew without a doubt and she breathed in her heady scent.   Like the land after a bush fire ripped through. Heady, potent and dangerous. She could almost feel the heat of the flames.

“Celeste, please just call me Celeste.”

“Celeste.”

The sound of her mate saying her name undid Celeste.  Her whole body quaked with the power of the sound. Sally’s eyes were impossibly wide, filled with a wonder that Celeste would be hard pressed to admit to ever feeling. She was everything right now.

“Your husband asked me out on a date.”

Sally’s hand was ripped out of hers as they both slapped against her cheeks, covering her eyes. Sally was obviously mortified by her out burst, her blush coating the tips of her ears and creeping down her neck. She was absolutely adorable and Celeste gave up on the fight.

“Did he now?” Celeste could see a flash of her hazel eyes peeking through her fingers. “And will you?”

Celeste stalked forward, her hands falling from her face as she watched wide eyed.

“Will I what?” She whispered, her voice deepening as her smell pooled around them. Celeste could only wonder if she was dripping, her smell was intoxicating.

“Will you go out with Hunter?”

Sally’s breathing stopped and Celeste could see the wonder in her face as she nodded. Satisfied that she was at least semi-open to to the idea of going out with Hunter, Celeste closed the distance between them.

“Good.”

She knew she needed to slow down, to keep control or risk scaring Sally off. But she also needed to know if those lips were as soft as they seemed. So she leant forward, pausing a few moments from her lips, but she didn’t back away. If anything she swayed a little closer.

Celeste pressed her lips to Sally’s.

She knew how heady and out of control the mate bond could be, not just from secondhand knowledge either. She had lived and breathed having Hunter as her mate for seven blissful years. But Sally was something else. Hunter was a whirlwind of adventure, he was dancing in the storm and riding every wave. Sally, kissing Sally was like coming home.

The girl’s hands went straight around her waist, pulling her even closer while Celeste sunk her fingers into those curls, digging slightly into her scalp as she tipped her head up. The height difference was new, but delightful, Celeste loved how small and delicate she felt in her hands.

Her lips were soft, and she gasped, making Celeste mew in response, wanting to taste her. Even as she thought it, Sally gripped her a little tighter and her tongue flicked against the seam of her lips. Groaning Celeste met the exploring touch, she tasted as smokey as she smelt.

Their tongues danced and she could feel Sally trembling against her. She loosened her grip, fingers kneading her skull, soothing her.

:Oo La La, Cel. What a sensation to come to work with. Are you bewitching your Mate?:

:She may be bewitching me, Hunter:

They kissed for minutes while Celeste floated, caught between the pull of desire between her two mates. She couldn’t even begin to phantom what this would be like, with the two of them surrounding her. Hunter purred in delighted agreement.

Slowly she pulled back, she could hear sounds of the building waking and did not need the Clan to ruin this. Not yet, not ever if she had her way.

Her forehead rested against Sally’s, the pale girl’s eyes closed and her lips parted and swollen. Celeste kissed her again, chastely. Mostly chastely as she let her tongue taste those lips just one more time.

Groaning she stepped back, trying to put some space between them. She skimmed her hands down her arms as those hazel eyes parted, watching her dazedly.  Celeste took her hands, bringing them up and kissing the knuckles one at a time while Sally watched, breathless. She wonder if the little human could feel the tingle each time their skin touched.

“Please go on a date with my husband,” she whispered against her hands before lowering them. Sally blinked owlishly at her, nodding slowly, reluctantly parting from her. “I would really like to see us all get along.”

Sally appeared to gulp, make Celeste smirk. She wondered where her mind had gone as her eyes appeared to gloss over. Chuckling she stepped forward again, this time fixing Sally’s hair back into place. “And maybe after tonight, we could all go on a date together?”

Satisfied that Sally didn’t look too much like she’d been mauled Celeste took her copies from the machine behind her. She gave one Sally one last, secret smile before heading towards the elevators. She was going to need a cold shower before she tried any sort of serious work.

“Wait,” Sally said suddenly from behind her, “What do you mean tonight?”

Celeste laughed, waving at the panicked girl as she disappeared into the elevator. Hunter was right, it was going to be very hard to take this slowly.

  • The CEO's Wife's Mate   Epilogue

    Six Months Later"Mamma!"Sally was delighted when the other petite red head opened her door and squealed. It had been a long time since she'd been home and enveloped in the warm place that was her home. It was wonderful to see the woman hadn't changed even though Sally hadn't seen her in over a year."Josh," Her mother practically screamed back into the house, "Sally's home!"Hunter chuckled behind her, "I understand what Yuki meant now."Sally lifted an eyebrow at her mate over her shoulder, waiting for him to to expand on his thought. She didn't have to wait long."That you get more then your beauty from your mother," he grinned cheekily and Sally imagined the punishment he would get later. He shivered a little at her stray thought before stepping forward. "Hunter North, madame, those video calls never prepared me for your beauty." He kissed the back of her hand while winking at Sally.She shared a look with Celeste ove

  • The CEO's Wife's Mate   Chapter Twenty Two 3. Hunter

    Hunter held Celeste's hip steady in one hand while he lifted the zip on her dress with the other. She looked stunning, the pale cream dress hugged her curves and complemented her chocolate skin perfectly. and the way she smiled at him over her shoulder told him she could practically read his mind.She turned, placing her hands on his chest, smoothing them up to his silver tie, fixing the placing. Still grinning she patted him over his heart. "Keep it in your pants big boy, you can eat me later.""I will hold you to that, wife!"She chuckled, sashaying away to check her hair and makeup one last time. Celeste looked perfect, but he loved to watch her preen. Actually, he loved to watch her do basically anything."Luna says the Clan is already there, are you ready?"He laughed, cocking an elbow for her to slip her arm through. "For you my love? Always."***Hunter was happy to say he'd never seen the place look nicer. The Clan had d

    Celeste watched, biting her lip as Sally slipped out of her clothes. Her tiny mate was sin personified and she didn't even seem to notice it. Before she had a chance to go any further, Celeste grabbed her by the braid, gently tugging her to a stand still. Celeste bulled out the hair tie, separating the curls quickly till they flowed down her shoulder blades."Better," she purred, "I like having something to hold onto when you go down on me."Sally grinned cheekily, "who says I'm going down on you this time?"Celeste just smiled before swatting her arse, sending her towards the shower with a squeal.The hot water had steamed up the bathroom fairly quickly. Even though the space was supposed to be the ensuite, Celeste had made sure when they brought the apartment that it was large enough to fit the two of them more then comfortably. She was grateful for the extra space now there were three of them. The shower cubical spanned a wall and had two l

  • The CEO's Wife's Mate   Chapter Twenty Two 1. Sally

    Sally could not deny in anyway how relieved she was that it was all over. That they had done what they had set out to do, and in one night no less. It was going to be a long time before she was use to Clan members just ‘popping in’ to her brain. Some just wanted to check in on her, while the young cubs who had no mate yet thought of it as a cool game to play. Aside from the Matriarch or your mate, this connection was very rare in shifter circles apparently. The fact she was linked to the whole Clan was going to be the talking point for some time to come.She sighed against Celeste, burrowing into her arms as they sat with the Clan. She wanted to go to bed, and soon, but she was also delighted to sit here among her new family as they revealed her addition to their Clan.Tyler sat on Celeste's other side and Sally opened her mouth to say something but was cut short upon noticing four deep scratches on his chest, just above his heart. Four marks th

  • The CEO's Wife's Mate   Chapter Twenty One 3. Hunter

    Hunter had pulled on a pair of boxes before he had laid down next to Sally. Her breathing was starting to even and she looked like she was finally starting to actually rest. He pressed his body against her back, just needing to hold her for a while, taking in the scent of fire in her hair. She was just so many things, and the trouble would be over now.Ensuring the Clan had two Matriarchs would work in everyone's favour. Luna liked to be here more then anywhere else, she would be able to appease the old fogies more then Celeste ever could and give the illusion of them having some sort of power. They would also keep each other honest, ensuring both of the sister's had the Clan's interests at heart.::Will you be long?:: he prodded Celeste gently ::You should be here when she wakes.::::I will try not to be,:: she sounded flustered and it made him smile. ::Everyone wants to talk to me, but I'll leave Luna to it soon.::At least most of the Clan was legitima

  • The CEO's Wife's Mate   Chapter Twenty One 2. Celeste

    Celeste barely had a moment to step forward as the bowl dropped from Sally's fingers and she went down like a sack of shit. Hunter was right with her as Sally's mind appeared to scream out before it was gone. Last night their Mate bond had felt fuzzy, now it felt like it was entirely gone. Holding her mate to her chest she bared her teeth at the women in front of her."What have you done?" she snarled before a mighty wind rushed out from the bush, snuffing out the torches as the last of the light of dusk leached out of the sky. The echos of a hyena wail filled the air and Celeste held Sally's body even closer to her own, trying to shield her from whatever was coming.Because out of the tree line walked five of the largest hyenas she had ever seen. Their coats seemed to be made out of starlight and they didn't appear to be entirely there. It took her far longer then it should have to realise these were the ancestors Sally had talked of non stop this morning. Still, she felt a little saf
