The beloved one Plans for the future
Colin’s POVColin could see the tension in Adina’s shoulders. He itched to place his arm around her, to comfort her and make her relax. But this was not the time. She needed to look strong. That meant that he needed to step back. And it was killing him.They were walking down the hallway; Cernack was leading their way. Adina walked behind him, and Colin and Sean flanked her on each side, half a step behind her. Their warriors were surrounding them.As they arrived at the conference room, Cernack went up to the two warriors guarding the door, a werewolf and a vampire.“Open up” was all he told them.“Who are we announcing?” the vampire said.“You are just going to open the door,” Cernack told him.“We need to announce any guests and wait for a response,” the werewolf told them.“I have the Beloved One with me. You are going to open those doors, and then you will leave the guard duty to these gentlemen,” Cernack told them, nodding toward the warriors they had brought with them.Both gua
The beloved one A talk
Adina’s POV“Nothing will happen to him. He will stay as my protector,” Adina answered.“But you have a mate,” Remus stated.“That doesn’t matter; Sean will stay,” Adina said.“I have named him my brother. He is more than welcome. As Adina’s mate, I am grateful to have him in our pack. As alpha, my duties sometimes may prevent me from travelling with her or being present as much as I want. Sean will make sure she is always safe,” Colin said.Adina smiled at him. He had come a long way in accepting Sean.“I think that is commendable, alpha. To realise one’s limitations is key to success. That is why it’s not uncommon for lunas to have more than one mate. Alphas have things to do besides tending to their mates.” Cranney nodded happily.“That is true,” Cernack agreed.“Questions?” Adina asked.There were some regarding the nominations and what the minimum requirements were. After that, Cernack gave a report regarding Cleatus, and they closed the meeting.As they got back into their cars t
The beloved one I love you
Sean’s POV Sean stood up and cursed himself for letting the words slip out. Now there was nothing he could do to take it back. He had just ruined his chance to stay by Adina’s side. He waited for Adina to yell at him, but there was dead silence. Sean turned around and saw Adina looking like her heart had shattered into a million pieces. He stopped breathing. What had he said that would cause her to react like that? “Why don’t you want to be my friend?” she asked. There was a slight tremor in her voice. It felt like physical pain to Sean. “Nothing, I shouldn’t have said it. Forget it,” he mumbled. “No, Sean. If you feel like we can’t be friends, I need to know why. I won’t force you to be my friend. But I need to know what I did to make you feel like that,” she said and walked over to him. That’s when Sean understood that Adina had interpreted his word to mean that he didn’t want to be a part of her life. “Adina, I didn’t mean it like that. You have done nothing wrong,” he said,
The beloved one The first kiss
Colin’s POV “I don’t know,” Adina said. A small sob escaped her. “Hey, it’s okay,” Colin comforted her and took both her hands in his. “I love you, Colin. I love you so much that it hurts,” she said. “I know, Adina. I have never doubted your feelings,” he told her. She looked at him with a small smile. “But you love him as well,” Colin continued. Colin had known it, even if he hadn’t wanted to admit it. How could she not love Sean? With what they had gone through, it would be stranger if the two of them hadn’t developed feelings for each other. “I do,” she nodded with a sigh. “What do you want to do about it?” he asked. “I don’t know. I know I have to give one of you up, but I just don’t know how to choose,” she whispered. Colin could see her pain as she tried to force herself to choose between the two men she loved. “Do you have to choose?” he asked her. He surprised himself with the question almost as much as he did her. “I can’t force Sean to stay in my life, watching you
The beloved one Unwanted attention
Kissing Sean was nothing like kissing Colin, Adina realised. It wasn’t worse or better; it was just different. With Colin, there had always been a driving need, a raw hunger. With Sean, there was passion, but a patient passion, something that had been waiting under the surface for years and now finally was free. Sean deepened the kiss, and Adina got lost in it. She let her hands move up into Sean’s brown hair. Sean nibbled on her bottom lip, and Adina let out a sigh. Then she felt the same warmth as Sean pressed against her front, press against her back. Colin had walked up behind her, and Sean cupped her ass and drew her even closer to him. Colin let his hands rest on her waist as he started kissing the mark he had given her and up along her neck. Sean mirrored Colin’s kisses on the other side of her neck, and Adina moaned in pleasure. Adina could feel the result of her make-out session with Sean pressing up against her stomach. She felt Colin move his hands over the side of her ri
The beloved one It's obvious
“Because she figured it out,” Adina laughed. Both Colin and Sean chuckled at the expression on Mateo’s face.“Figured out what?” he asked.“Oh, it’s so obvious,” Julia giggled. She looked at Adina, and Adina nodded.“Colin and Adina have added Sean into their relationship,” Julia said.“Oh. Wait, what?” Jason said.“Yeah, you're right; that should have been easy to figure out,” Mateo nodded.“Congratulations, I guess,” Mateo smiled at the three of them.“Thank you,” Colin smiled.“I don’t think I understand,” Jason whined.“It’s not that complicated, man,” Sean smiled. “We’ll be in a relationship, all three of us,” he explained.“Oh, so instead of an alpha couple, we will have an alpha throuple?” Jason asked.“Yes,” Colin answered.“Cool,” Jason smiled, and Adina had to smile. He seemed excited about that.“That means I will be the top single man in the pack again. Not that Sean was that much of a competition anyway,” he laughed. It was like looking at a cartoon version of him when th
The beloved one The three of them
Adina smiled and kissed Colin. As Colin distracted her, Sean quickly removed his clothes. When he was done, he stepped in and drew Adina to his now naked body and kissed her. At the same time, Adina admired the feel of Sean’s well-toned muscles under her hands as she let them move all over his body. Colin got his clothes off and then joined them again.Being trapped between two powerful, naked bodies was like nothing she had experienced before. Her body was on fire, and each touch stood out and was part of the symphony of sensations.“Time for bed,” Sean smiled and held his hand towards Adina. Adina smiled back and took his hand, taking Colin’s hand with her other hand.As Colin and Sean led her to the bed, she took the time to admire the two of them. They were both gorgeous men. Colin being the poster boy for a true alpha with broad shoulders, well-muscled and tall. Sean was almost as tall but leaner, with muscles honed from training.As Sean reached the bed, he turned around towards
The beloved one That's not how it works
Colin’s POVAs they set off for breakfast, Colin put his arm around Adina as usual. Sean was walking on the other side of her. Colin saw Adina’s hand twitch as if she wanted to take hold of Sean’s hand. He smiled and kissed her temple. They needed to tell the pack to hold off and pretend that the feelings weren’t there would be cruel.When breakfast was almost finished, Colin stood in front of the pack, taking Adina with him. The pack grew silent without being told.“First, thank you to Mateo and Jason for arranging the BBQ last night. I think we all enjoyed ourselves,” Graham began. There were cheers and whistles.“Then, Adina and I have decided that the best thing for us and the pack is to include Sean in our relationship. It has developed naturally, and he will move in with us as soon as possible. Nothing will change regarding rank or responsibilities to the pack,” Colin said, and Sean joined him and Adina.There was a silence in the pack, and Colin worried that this was taking thi
