Jason paced through the kitchen, glaring at the dinner that had barely been touched. He couldn't believe that his best-friend would do something.... something so gross and perverted like having sex with his sister! She looked just like him! With breasts! And his sister! She was supposed to be sexless! Then again, was it her fault that Nathaniel had seduced her? Jase was lucky that he'd arrived when he had!

Caleb sighed, sitting at the table as Jason paced. Maybe he could hide? Jase certainly wasn't going to care much for him after this visit...

Jase stormed into the room. "You had no right to burst into my room like that, Jay!" She was furious. She'd found a nice guy and her brother was about to ruin it.

"How was I supposed to know my best friend was trying to get into your pants?!" Jason stopped pacing, waving an angry hand at his sister.

Shrinking down into his chair, Caleb wondered if they would noticed if he slipped out the door.

"Oh please Jason. I'm allowed to have sex." She shouted. "And you're acting like he seduced me. I wanted this as much as he did, you fucktard."

"No! No, no, NO! You're not capable of sex- you're sexless. And you're honestly saying Nathaniel didn't seduce you?" Jason crossed his arms over his chest.

"Fucking hell, Jason. I lost my virginity before you did. And NO he didn't seduce me." She was still angry with him and was about to hit him again.

Jason froze, blinking. "You didn't... I lost mine in eleventh grade!"

"Tenth grade to Jeremy Black." She said.

He blinked. "The geek?!"

"He was not a geek! As a matter of fact he was very well endowed."

"EW! Do NOT tell me what nerd-boy had for tackle! Or that he went fishing and caught you!" Jason shuddered.

"Um... Jason?" Nathaniel said shyly from the doorway.

Jase looked at Nathaniel then Jason. "You have no right to tell me who I can and cannot sleep with."

Jason glared at Nathaniel. "You've told me my entire life what girls I wasn't allowed to date- and Nathaniel isn't exactly the best choice as a bed mate- not as a former prostit-" He stopped as Nathaniel's eyes darkened.

The auburn haired leopard shook his head, glancing at Jase, then Jason. "I'm sorry." He turned for the door, feeling for the first time in a long while, dirty about his past.

"Jason...?" Caleb ventured, standing. "Don't you think this is going a little far? I mean... your sister and Nathaniel are mature adults..."

"I told you which girls were whores and had STD's. Sorry for being there for you, dickhead." Jason just stared at Jase as she followed Nathaniel out of the room. "Nathaniel, Jason had no right to say that."

Jason looked at Caleb. "I really fucked this up didn't I?"

Caleb bit his lower lip, shrugging. "I think you went over board- especially mentioning Nathaniel's past. That's his to tell, not yours."

Jason rubbed his face. "God, he must hate me now. And Jase."

"My suggestion? Give them a box of sex toys with 'have fun' written on the card." Caleb hugged his lover, rubbing his back. "What would you have felt like had something like this happened when we first made love? If Stephen came in and threw a fit?" He paused, stepping back. "Of course... being that we were prostitutes too..." Had Jason known that? Would he hate him now? Shit...

"I know about that Caleb. I accept your past. I can't believe I just threw Nathaniel's in his face like that." He glared at Caleb. "And I am so not giving my sister sex toys."

He shrugged, his chocolate curls falling into his face. "Well, you should apologize."

Jason sighed "I will."

----------------------

Jase touched Nathaniel's shoulder. "I'm sorry."

His shoulders hunched, and he looked away. "Don't be. I'm... I should have told you."

"You would have eventually." She said, softly.

"I should have before I touched you."The cat hugged himself, trying to ignore the tears in his eyes. "I can't... Jason thinks that little of me?" He shook his head. "I deserve it..."

"Jason doesn't think when he gets angry. He'll probably end up committing seppuku, so you'll forgive him. I know him. He's probably beating himself up over it and he should be. Nathaniel, I don't care what you were. It's a part of who you are." Jase said softly and hugged him. She felt herself falling in love with him.

Nathaniel turned, hugging her to him, unable to think of a reply as he buried his face into her soft blond hair, the scent of wolf filling his lungs.

"My brother is an idiot, but I'm sure he didn't mean it." She whispered softly.

He pulled back a bit, kissing her temple. "Even if he did... I don't want to stop this... thing between us..." Violet eyes met azure blue as he said, "I hate to sound cliche... but I feel... alive around you. As if I've found part of me that makes it alright to breathe..."

"I feel the same." She said, glad he felt the same as her. "I want to be in your life. I don't care how stupid my brother acts, he won't take you away from me."

Nathaniel smiled slightly, leaning down to brush his lips over hers. "Good...."

Jase smiled at him. "Good. Now let's go make my brother feel even worse."

He blinked. "How? Why?"

"He made you feel bad, now I'm going to make him pay."

"Jase... you don't have to... really-"

“Oh, I want to make him suffer. It's a sibling thing."

"Erm... alright?" He took her hand in his.

She led him back to the room. "Jason, you’re an ass"

"I know. Nate, I'm sorry. I shouldn’t of said that."

The leopard shrugged, looking down. "It's the truth."

“I know, but it was cruel to say it like that." Jason said. "I'm sorry, man."

Nathaniel glanced up through sooty lashes. "Jason, it's pretty obvious that you meant it, alright? And I, frankly... am not going to apologize for liking your sister. A lot. And I'll thank you to stay out of my love life, as I'm certainly not going to stop seeing your sister because you think so little of me. I'm not that sort of person, Jason." Yes, Jase had told him differently, but... Jason's little slip had really cut him deeply.

Caleb fidgeted, leaning against the counter.

Jason lowered his eyes. "Jase is right, I have no right to say she can and can not sleep with."

Jase glanced at Caleb. "You must be Caleb."

The brunette jumped at being addressed. "I... yes... I'm... I'm Caleb." He extended his hand to her, biting his lip.

She shook his hand. "I'm Jase. Sorry you had to see us fight. At least we didn't break anything this time."

Nathaniel nodded, hugging himself as he looked back to Jase.

Caleb's lips quirked. "My brother and I once broke a window while fighting, and trashed the house. Mom made us clean it all."

Jase grinned as she squeezed Nathaniel's hand. "Once I accidently broke Jason's arm when I , uh, threw him into a wall."

"She always beat the crap out of me." Jason said.

Smirking, Caleb hugged Jason. "That must have sucked in school- being beat up by your sister."

Jason glared at Jase.

"Please, don't act like every girl in school didn't feel bad for you. Half the girls you slept with thought you were so poor and innocent." Jase stuck her tongue out at Jason.

Caleb pressed his face into Jason's neck, chuckling softly as Nathaniel sat quietly at the table, unsure whether or not Jason would welcome his input into the conversation- or any for that matter.

Jason watched Nathaniel, unsure how to fix the whole situation.

"Poor Jason. Pity fucks? I just can't believe it..."Caleb jested, hoping to lighten the atmosphere.

Nathaniel ducked his head, hiding the slight quirk to his lips. Jason, having to make due with sympathy sex? It didn't compute. He glanced at Jase. That was one beautiful girl who would never have to worry about something like that... And she was interested in him!

Jase grinned at her brother.

Jason hugged Caleb. "Don't listen to her. She lies.''

"He's the one who lies."

"Do not."

"You so do."

"You never got me pity sex."

"Keep telling yourself that, Jay."

Nathaniel bit his lip, shrugging. "I suppose it's better than what I was doing at that age. Though I bet that I'm better in bed than pity sex boy."

Blinking, Caleb shook his head. "We're not going to test that."

"Hell no we're not." Jase said and hugged Nathaniel. "You even look at Nathaniel and I'll break your leg, Jason."

"Bring it little girl."

Nathaniel smiled and tugged Jase into his lap and hugged her. "Do you mind? I mean, sitting here?" He blushed slightly.

Shaking his head, Caleb poked Jason. "No fighting with siblings, hun. I don't like bruises that I don't cause on my lovers, okay?"

Jase grinned and sat at Nathaniel's lap. "So, Jason, if you can be civil, want to go out to dinner to night?"

"Uh, sure." Jason said as he kissed Caleb's neck. "That okay with you, kitty?"

Caleb bit his lip, barely managing to suppress a shiver. Jason HAD to kiss THAT spot. Evil wolf. Bad dog, no sex. Wicked man. Sexy man... Talented- Wrong train of thought, Cale. Behave.

Wrapping his arms around Jase, he rested his chin on her shoulder. "So much for Chicken and dumplings..."

"Yeah, I know, but I want to go out now and Jason is paying to make up for earlier."

"What?! I am so not paying." He said.

"Do it." Jase said.

"Fine...I guess I owe you that." He said, though he still sulked.

Caleb shook his head, ducking away from Jason. "And let me guess- Jase wore the pants between you two?"

Nathaniel nuzzled Jase's neck, purring slightly at the smell of her.

Jase snuggled up to Nathaniel. "Of course I did." She said to Caleb. "He was such a pussy when he was younger."

"You beat the crap out of me. Of course I was going to listen to you."

Caleb stuck his tongue out at Jason. "And yet he's such a dom over me now..." He teased.

"Is he?" Nathaniel quirked a brow. "I didn't quite figure that one."

Jase burst out laughing. "He's a dom. Oh my God, that's great." Jason glared at her.

Pouting, Caleb nuzzled Jason's neck. "Don't be angry..."

"I'm not angry. I'm just going to smother her." Jason said.

"Bring it." Jase said. "I can still take you."

A loud growl burst from Nathaniel's chest. "He's not going to touch you. Ever." Whoa... what the hell was that?!

Jason and Jase jumped. Jason just stared at his friend.

"Nathaniel, it's okay. We're joking." He'd startled her a bit. "Why don't we get ready to go to dinner." Jase said.

Jason nodded. "I'll be back in an hour for you so be ready."

Caleb bit his lip, offering his hand to Jason. "Where shall we go?"

Nathaniel ducked his head. "I... I'm sorry. I don't know why... I... I am sorry..."

"Uh, Jean-Claude just opened up this fancy french restaurant." Jason said.

"Sounds great to me." Jase said as she hugged Nathaniel.

"We'll leave you two alone for now. Come on, Caleb. We need to go change." He took Caleb's offered hand.

"Um... how fancy are we talking here, Jason?" Caleb frowned slightly. He didn't own any really dressy clothing...

Nathaniel hid his face in Jase's hair. He'd like to hide. Now.

Jason led Caleb out. "Really fancy." One they were gone Jase turned in Nathaniel's lap and kissed him. She was glad that she had found him.

He kissed her back, holding her to him, then ducked his head. "I'm... sorry. About..."

"Don't be." She said softly as she stroked his face. "So shall we try this again?"

He nuzzled her jaw. "Mm... Yes... if you're willing. But... until I tell you about my past. Alright?"

"Alright." She said. "Nothing in your past is going to change." She said. She wanted to make Nathaniel happy.

Nathaniel bit his lower lip. "I was a childhood prostitute- an extreme submissive who turned tricks to stay alive. Later, when I was fifteen or so, I stopped caring about living. I just... turned to drugs. It made the pain go away, even for just a while. I was probably carrying multiple STDs... I was sick. And Gabriel, after turning me, continued to just pimp me out to sicko's who just wanted to tear someone apart- As long as I lived after, it was alright. Raina, the old lupa and Gabriel's partner in porn making bit off my... penis, bite by bite." He glanced at her anxiously. "I didn't clean up until Zane called Anita to the hospital and she became Nimir Ra with Micah, when I was nineteen." Nathaniel stopped speaking, waiting for her rejection.

Jase kissed his forehead. "I'm sorry you had such a bad life, but from now on I'll make it as good as possible." His story broke her heart. She wished she could take it all away, make it better.

He gasped. "I... what? You... But..." Nathaniel stared at her, then kissed her passionately, his tongue delving into her mouth as he slid his hands into her hair.

Jase closed her eyes and easily fell into the kiss. Oh boy, could the cat kiss. "Did you think I wouldn't want you? Those things are in the past Nathaniel."

"I just... I was dirty. Wasn't I? And I'm still... more submissive than dominant..." He stroked his hand down her back.

"There's not wrong with being submissive." She said. "Nathaniel, there's nothing wrong with you."

He shrugged. "I don't believe that, but I'm glad that you do."

She smiled. "Maybe, one day I'll convince you too."

He brushed a kiss over her lips. "Maybe." Nathaniel glanced at the clock. "We have fifty minutes left..."

"I can call Jason and tell him we need more time." She whispered into his ear.

"Mm... yes." He shiver as her lips brushed him, her warm breath causing goose bumps to race down his spine.

Jase pulled her cell phone out of her back pocket. She sent a text massage to Jason, telling him that he should pick them up in two hours, not one. She put the phone back into her pocket and grinned at Nathaniel. "Let's try this again."

He nodded. "And I hope we can lock the door this time."

"Definitely." She slid off his lap and headed upstairs, knowing he would follow her.

Nathaniel grinned, hurrying after her, his feet falling gracefully and nearly silently on the stairs.

Jase grinned back at him as she pulled her tank top over her head and tossed it to him.

He laughed, letting it fall, then pulled off his as well as she hurried into the bedroom.

She meet him at the door with a kiss. "So nice." She ran her hand over his chest.

“What is?" He traced a finger over her breasts, and down her abdomen before kissing her again.

"Your body." She said as she returned the kiss.

He moaned softly into Jase's mouth. "You haven't seen all of it..."

"I'm sure it'll only get better." She said as she rubbed the front of his pants.

His breath hitched and he pushed slightly into her hand. "Jesus, Jase... I love the feel of you."

Nathaniel slid a hand up her back, unhooking her bra one handedly.

She let the bra fall to the floor as she continued to rub him through his pants.

A low purr rumbled through his chest. "How do you want this, Jase?" His hands cupped her breasts as he kissed along her jaw, then down to her neck, sucking the throbbing pulse there into his mouth.

She moaned as she slid her hand into his pants. "I want you Nathaniel. I want you to be buried inside of me.

He shook, quickly pulling her into his arms and setting her on the bed. "Shall we undress the rest of the way?" He leaned down, sucking her nipple into his mouth.

"Yes." She said as she undid his pants. "I want to see all of you." She said as she arched her back.

"Undress me..." He whispered, brushing his lips over her's. "Tell me what to do... I'll do anything for you, Jase..."

She undid his zipper. "Take your pants off, Leopard."

Nathaniel stood, turning his back to her as he bent, sliding his pants slowly down his legs, turning slowly to showcase his nude form, undoing his hair so that it fell free over his body in a silken wave.

Jase watched him. "You're so beautiful, Nathaniel." She said as she slid off the bed to kneel in front of him. She looked up at him as she took him into her mouth.

He gasped, his head falling back with a moan. God... she felt so good. She was amazing, and God knew that she was one of the best things to ever happen to him. "Jase..."

"Mmm. Yes, Nathaniel?" She asked as she licked down his length.

"You feel so..." He slid a hand into her hair. "Mmm..."

She took him into her mouth again. She loved the feel of him in her mouth. She pulled back and slowly stood up. She undid her pants and took them and her underwear off. She stood before him naked.

Nathaniel's gaze ran over her form, caressing the slim curve of her hip to her breasts. "Jase..." He eased her back onto the bed, licking and teasing her breasts, gently teasing her nipples with his teeth before slowly making his way down her tummy.

She raised her hips as he moved down her body. She let her gaze run down his lovely body.

His tongue laved at her navel as he spread her thighs, licking along her wetness, dipping his tongue into her before finding the nubbin of passion above and sucking it into his mouth. Nathaniel purred, tracing it again and again with his tongue.

Jase gripped the sheets as she gasped. "Nathaniel." She moaned. It had been a while since she'd been with anyone. "Shit." She said. "I don't have any condoms."

Nathaniel stilled his mouth's caresses. "What? Jase... we're weres... it's sort of a moot point- isn't it?"

"I can carry to full term." She said, "so it's not moot."

"What?" He sat up slightly from his position. "How? I..."

"I'm from a special line of wolves." She said. "That's why I left home. We risk inbreeding if we keep this gift to ourselves, so must of our women leave."

"I... oh. I haven't carried them in... ages..." He straightened, moving to cup her face. "There are other ways though..." He licked his lips, still tasting her.

"I'll buy some later." She said, smiling. She wouldn't mind having Nathaniel's children someday. "I know there are other ways." She said as she pushed him back, so he laid down. She knelt between his thighs.

"Mmhm..." He braced himself on his elbows to he could watch her. "What do you suggest?"

She kissed his inner thigh. "I don't know. What do you want me to do?" She someone managed to look innocent as she knelt naked between his legs.

"Jase..." He shuddered. "Put your hips up here so I can taste you some more..."

"No." She said and grinned at him. "Not yet." She said as she licked his inner thigh.

Nathaniel moaned, his head falling back and his hair falling backwards.

She cupped him in her hand and began to lick the head of his penis.

His lilac eyes darkened as he shifted to watch her. "I can last... until you tell me to let go. Hours... days... you tell me when."

"Go when you feel it build. Let go, Nathaniel."

"Just... it doesn't matter where?" He shook, his belly tightening as his mind struggled against what she wanted- she should come first!

"It doesn't matter where." She said as she pushed down on his hips to pin him to the bed.

Nathaniel whimpered as he imagined the caress of her mouth, the force of his erection as a drop formed at the tip of his member.

Jase bent down and licked it off. She slowly took all of him into he mouth.

His back arched, a groan of her name slipping from his lips. Her mouth was moist velvet as she made love to his most intimate of places.

She gently sucked on him, as she ran her nails down his thighs.

"Jase... please..." He gripped at her pillows, fisting his hair where it covered the pillows and bed.

"Please what?" She asked as she licked down the length of him.

He shuddered. "I like pain, Jase..." He bit his lip. "Use your nails more...?" Nathaniel asked almost nervously, his voice shaking.

She smiled as she dug her nails into his hips. "A masochist hmm?" She asked as she gently bit his penis.

"Ah!" His hips bucked up, welcoming the pain, begging for it. "Jase!"

She moved her mouth over to his thigh. She bit down, hard enough to draw blood. It was hard to find a guy to be the masochist to her sadist.

“Mmm... Jase... yes..." He felt the blood dripping down his thigh, and he spread them further apart so she had more access to his body.

She bit him several more times, only drawing blood the one time though. She wanted him to carry her mark. She leaned back so she could see her work.

"Please... use your mouth on me... please, Jase... I want..." He cut himself of, his body tight with arousal begging for release.

She did as he asked, she bent down and took him into her mouth once more.

He shook again, sliding a hand into her hair, massaging her scalp as she took him into her mouth over and over again. "Jase... I'm close..."

She closed her eyes as she took all of him into her mouth.

Nathaniel felt himself approach the pinnacle- to the point where he normally pulled back... but now... he let go, and the orgasm slammed into him like a tidal wave, causing him to scream her name.

Jase felt him pour down her throat. She raked her nails down his legs.

He purred as he slowly came down, looking at her. "Mmm, Jase..."

She pulled back from him. "I'm glad I could please you."

Pushing her back against the bed, her gave her a seductive smile. "My turn?"

She grinned. "I guess so."

He licked back behind her ear, sucking the lobe into his mouth. "Good."

"Very good." She said as she relaxed under him.

He sucked at her pulse a moment later, slowly, torturously making his way to her breasts as he slid a thigh between her thighs, pressing it into her. "Tell me what you want, Jase? Please?"

"I want your mouth on me." She whispered.

"Here?" He sucked one of her nipples into his mouth, tracing it with his tongue.

"No." She moaned. "But you're close."

"Ah... then here?" He shifted, giving the same treatment to her other breast.

"No, but you're getting closer."

"Ah... here?" He slid a hand from her ankle up to cup her wetness.

"You're burning up." She moaned as she pushed against his hand.

Nathaniel slid down, pushing her legs up and apart as he dipped his tongue into her with a moan.

She arched her back. "Nathaniel...." Jase moaned loudly.

He made love to her with his tongue, slipping it up and over her clitoris, then down into her in quick motions.

She moaned his name as she made fists in his hair.

Slipping two fingers into her, Nathaniel moaned as he sucked her nubbin into his mouth, flicking it with his tongue with a purr.

Jase pushed against his fingers, wanting more.

He added another, wishing that he could be inside her, filling her again and again until she was coming over and over again, limp beneath him as he pushed her to orgasm.

She bit her lower lip hard enough to draw blood, before she screamed beneath him in pleasure. She felt the orgasm roll over her again and again.

Slowly, his tongue slowed, and he pulled back from her. "Jase..." Nathaniel crawled up along her body, running a finger over her lower lip before licking it away. "Mmm..."

She tasted blood in her mouth. "I bit myself."

"Mmhm..." He tossed his hair back with a shake of his head, then kissed the corner of her mouth. "We should shower..."

"Probably. And that was wonderful." She said.

"I'm glad you thought so." Nathaniel heaved a sigh, then lifted Jase into his arms. "Alright, m'lady. Lead me to the bathroom.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Jason shuddered as he drove back home. "They're having sex." He said for the millionth time since he'd gotten Jase's text message.

Caleb sighed, shaking his head and looking out the side window. He had nothing to wear to a fancy restaurant- nothing. And Jason was freaking because God forbid, his sister and Nate-y Boy were fucking.

Jason gripped the steering wheel. "What's wrong Caleb?"

"Nothing." He murmured, watching the city lights as they past. Homeless people in the park, teenagers trying to be cool, smoking cigarettes and what have you. People were so damn stupid!

"I know something is wrong." He relaxed a bit and tried not to think about Jase and Nate.

"Oh?"

"Caleb just tell me what's wrong. It'll help take my mind off of things."

"I can't go to dinner."

"Why not? Do you have plans?"

"No." Caleb looked back at Jason. "I can't go because I don't own any appropriate clothing." He turned to face the windshield.

"So borrow some of mine." He said.

Caleb shrugged. "I guess."

"Is something else wrong, Caleb?"

"I hate fighting. I don't want to go if you'll be pissed at Nate all night because he and your sister willingly had sex."

Jason gripped the steering wheel again. "If I don't think about it then I won't get upset about it."

"All you've done is think about it." Caleb bit back another sigh. What the hell was with him tonight? He was moody and depressed... for no reason.

Jason suddenly swerved out of traffic to the sound of several horns. He pulled over. "What's wrong?"

"Jason!" Caleb grabbed the door as the car abruptly parked. "Nothing is wrong, alright?"

"You're depressed and upset." He said looking into Caleb's eyes. "Do you not like my sister?"

"No! I liked Jase... She was nice... I just... I don't know..."

"Then what's wrong? Is there something wrong with us?" He asked.

Biting his lip, Caleb shook his head. "I... I don't know what's wrong, Jason... and no- I don't think it's between us. I'm just... I don't know." He sighed. "I shouldn't go. I'd just make the atmosphere worse."

“No you wouldn't. If you don't go, I'll go insane."

“Why?" Caleb tilted his head. "It's your best friend and your sister. That's all."

"Cause I''ll be worried about you." Jason stroked the other man's face.

Caleb's breath hitched at Jason's caress. "Worried?"

"Yes, worried. You're upset and I'll be worried that you're not okay."

Pressing a kiss to Jason's hand, he sighed, leaning back against the seat. "I had a nightmare."

"About what?" He asked softly..

"Doing the right thing." Caleb turned to Jason with tears in his eyes. "I killed myself, rather than raping all of those people for Chimera. I clawed out my throat and bled to death and all of those people, my friend... they were so happy because I was dead... and then Chimera killed them anyway..."

“Oh God, Caleb." Jason undid his seat belt and hugged Caleb tightly. "What you did is in the past. It's okay."

The leopard struggled not to sob. "It's not, Jason! I ha... hate myself..." He swore as a tear finally fell, followed by another.

Jason hugged him. "Well, I love you enough for the both of us."

Caleb shook his head. "No, Jason! Don't you get it?" He leaned against his door. "I'll only hurt you! Just like everyone else in my life! That's all I do is cause pain." He fisted his hands in his hair. "I don't want to hurt you. I'd rather die than hurt you..."

Jason grabbed his hands. "Stop it! Stop! You think I'd love you this much if you were going to hurt me? Now stop. You can’t change the past but you can make a good future."

He lowered his gaze. "How, Jason?" More tears fell unnoticed down his face. "Will you protect me? Save me from myself?"

"I will, Caleb. Let me save you. I'll help you make it better."

Caleb hugged Jason again, burying his tear dampened face in his neck. "I love you."

"I love you too, Kitty." The wolf held Caleb close. "Next time just tell me what's wrong, okay?"

He nodded. "I'm sorry... I thought it'd... go away... I didn't want to ruin you seeing Jase again..."

"Yeah, that happened when she decked me in her bedroom." He said. "But we're okay now."

"Well... you did interrupt something you would have decked someone for interrupting between us..."

"Yeah...but she is my sister. I was just looking out for her."

Caleb blinked. "And what if she didn't want you to be with me, because of my past? Wouldn't that be looking out for you?"

"She accepted Nathaniel. She'll accept you too." Jason assured him.

"I know, Jason.... I'm saying, what if? What would you have done had that happened?" Caleb's fingers traced Jason's jaw soothingly.

"If Jase told me not to be with you? I would have fought for us." He said. He loved Caleb and no one was going to take him away.

"Mm." Caleb kissed Jason gently. "Just like Jase fought for Nathaniel."

"Yeah. She and I are so alike. We butt heads a lot." He laughed.

Offering a small smile, Caleb nodded. "I figured."

"It was horrible though, not being able to protect her." He said softly.

Caleb cupped his jaw. "I know... but you need to let her live, just like you. We can't keep our loved ones from never getting hurt, because there's no such thing as pleasure if we don't know pain."

"I became a wolf so I could protect her. The old leader of her old pack hurt her. No one could help her. I hate myself for letting her get hurt."

Hugging his lover to him, Caleb sighed as he stroked his back, seeking to calm him. "I understand, hun."

"She killed him, Caleb. She killed him when it was over. She could be pack leader." He said softly.

"Why isn't she, then?"

"She didn't want to rule the pack. She couldn't even look at my parents for months."

"It's hard to look at anyone, especially yourself after you've killed. It's... I can't explain." Caleb met Jason's eyes, staring into the blue and wishing he could be lost in it forever.

"He raped her in front of the whole pack." He said softly. "Then she just snapped and tore him apart."

"Good. I hope she bathed in his blood." Caleb's eyes flashed. "No one deserves to be violated in such a way. No one."

"She did." He said. "My dad told me about it. It was right before I moved here and became a wolf."

Caleb brushed his lips over Jason's. "She's strong then. I'm glad."

He nodded. "She's a great person. That's why she can accept everyone for who they are."

"Of course. She's your twin. You share strength and heart." He pressed his hand to Jason's chest, over the throbbing pulse there.

“I am so glad she's here. I have felt so lost without her." He kissed his forehead. "Now let's go change."

"Well... We can go change. But first you have to get us home." Caleb smiled.
