Caleb stared blindly at the TV. Sara was staying with Richard and Mika... he'd taken the call about ten minutes ago, but it hadn't really registered. Nothing was, not even the shaking in his hands. He couldn't stop seeing him...

Jason pressed his face into his lover's neck as he held him close to his body. He was scared by how much his lover was shaking.

"I see him..." He said quietly.

"I won't let him touch you ever again." He told him softly. Shayne's scent lingered on them from their encounter with Nathaniel. "Let's go take a bath. A nice long, hot bath."

Caleb looked at him, his eyes hollow for a moment before he nodded, forcing himself to stand.

Jason let Caleb walk on his own. He decided to try and get Caleb's mind off of things. "I called to let my parents know Jase was pregnant." He called then right after Jase found out. "They're so excited to meet you and Nathaniel that they want to come out before the wedding. My dad said he wanted to meet the man that turned me gay." He smiled weakly.

"You weren't before?" He asked absently as he stepped into the bathroom, then up to the mirror. Slowly, he reached up, tracing the scar that marred his brow on the silver glass.

Jason grabbed his hand and kissed the scar. "Well, I was only with one other guy and as far as my folks knew, I was straight."

Caleb started a bit, shaking himself as part of him returned to his eyes. "I'm sorry... what were you saying?"

"That my parents never knew I was into guys at all." He made sure the water was hot before he put the plug in.

"Oh. Yeah." He nodded. "I forgot they didn't know about Lucian."

"Yeah. That would be way weird because he was my best friend." He emphasized the word ‘was’.

Caleb gave him a bit of an odd look before glancing at the tub.

"My mom is the one who really wants to meet you. She couldn't stop talking about 'the wonderful man who stole my only son's heart'." Jason grinned at him.

"Yeah. Susie." He nodded. "She was nice."

"You'll like her. Jase is a lot like her. Good cook and a real ball buster."

"She sounded nice... a bit disturbed that I didn't have family..."

Jason helped him undress. "You have to understand, Cale. We grew up with the pack. It was like one giant family. No one was left out so mom will feel the need to fuss over you and treat you like one of her children."

"She shouldn't..." He murmured absently, climbing into the tub.

"I know mom." He quickly stripped off his clothes and joined him. "And Dad... well he'll try to size you up, but he's a push over."

"It's a waste... not worth it." Caleb slowly began washing himself.

Jason grabbed his hand. "You are worth it and they'll see that."

Caleb growled, shoving Jason back. "Just drop it! I'm not worth shit! I never have been! Why can't you see that?!" Water splashed from the tub.

He merely kissed Caleb. "Because I love you more than anything else Caleb. Because, when I wake up you're the first person I think of. When I dance, I imagine it's for you because you matter to me."

The leopard's face crumbled and he shoved him again. "Just fucking hate me! You'll only get hurt! I hurt everyone!"

Jason held him gently in his arms. "I am the one who betrayed you and you want me to hate you when you’re the one who took me back. I love you, kitten. I don't care what anyone has to say. We belong together." He said firmly.

Caleb collapsed into sobs, broken phrases like, "How can you love me when I hate me?" being heard as he held onto Jason for dear life.

"Eventually, you'll love yourself. Until then I love you enough for both of us." Jason did all he could for the cat, he held him close to his heart.

Slowly, Caleb stopped crying, kissing Jason's chest softly. "Thank you."

"Nothing to thank me for. I was just being a good husband." He smiled at him.

Caleb kissed him. "I love you, Jason... so much... You're... I can't even put it into words..." His eyes were red from tears, and dark from crying as he looked into Jason's.

Jason ran a hand down his back. "What Shayne said to you was evil and soon he'll be as dead as Anita. Our lives will move on and I'll prove to you how much you mean to me."

Pausing, Caleb bit his lip. "I'm sorry your friend died..."

He sighed. "I already told you, Cale, my friend died a lot time ago."

"I know. And I'm still sorry." He kissed the corner of Jason's mouth. "And I'm sorry I freaked tonight rather than supporting you after they were attacked.

Jason stroked the side of his face. "You had every right to flip out."

"I wasn't the one hurt tonight. They could have been-"

"They are fine. Nathaniel got a little cut up is all. but they made it out ok."

"Jase said he nearly bit off his hand..." Caleb took Jason's hand in his own.

"It was very brave of Nathaniel. He's good for her." Jason squeezed his hand.

"He's very brave. They're so lucky... I mean, that... the baby. They're lucky about that. Not about... him." Caleb looked down.

He began to wash Caleb. "So my mom asked me about what I did for a living. That was the most embarrassing conversation ever."

Caleb shivered. "I um... bet."

"How do you explain to your mother that you take your clothes off for a living?" Jason shook his head.

"Um... I don't know." Caleb bit his lip, watching the wolf. "Mom, you know how you said I could be anything I wanted to be when I grew up? Well... you know how I had that thing where I liked being naked?"

He kissed his kitten. "You're funny, but I doubt she'd fine humor in that. All she had to say was 'that's nice dear. As long you you're happy.' God, it was awful."

"Poor Jason..." He kissed the wolf. "She could have freaked about you being gay..."

"That's just it. My mom never freaks out. She's the calmest person I know." Jason leaned back against the side of the tub.

"Mmm... probably." Caleb nuzzled Jason's neck.

"I love you Caleb." He held the cat close to him. "We'll be uncles soon."

Caleb grinned. "I can't wait. We'll spoil that kid rotten..."He paused. "Maybe we'll get him or her a pony!"

"No ponies. Jase will beat me." He laughed. "But we can give them everything else they want."

"Why no ponies?" Caleb turned in the tub, straddling Jason's lap.

"Do you want to clean up after a pony?" Jason kissed his collar bone.

"Um... no..." He stroked the wolf's face.

"Well, then no ponies." He gently bit Caleb.

Moaning, Caleb pressed into his mouth. His collarbone was very sensitive.

"I should probably go check on Jase." Jason said softly.

"No biting." He pulled back, looking down as he picked up the wash cloth.

"You don't like it when I bite you?" He pouted.

"You have to check on Jase..."

"Why would I bite Jase?" Jason asked confused.

Caleb froze. "Jason... sometimes... you really fit the blonde stereotype."

He pouted and got out of the tub. "I do not."

"Why would I object to you biting me, Jason?" Caleb quirked a brow. "Only when you're leaving..."

Jason began to dry off. "I thought I could bite you anytime I wanted."

"Never mind. I'm going to clean up the mess I made in the kitchen." He climbed from the tub, wrapping a towel around his waist.

He dragged Caleb against his body. "I can check on Jase in a few. Right now, I want you to top me."

Caleb froze against him, fighting panic in memory of Shayne before looking at Jason. "Oh really? And when did you decide that?"

"Just now. I can't see your wet, naked body and not want you." Jason bent his head down to Caleb's shoulder. "I want you top me, mark me, show me that I'm yours."

He licked over Jason's neck. "Mmhm..."

He pressed against Caleb.

“What if I want you to come in my mouth?"

"Then I'll do it." Jason said. "As long as you top me."

"How, exactly, pup, will we do both?"

"That up to you to figure out."

"Thanks..." Caleb turned Jason, pressing him against the sink. "Watch yourself, Jason..."

Jason stared at himself in the mirror.

Caleb smirked. "Good dog..." He bit into the wolf's shoulder.

He moaned at the pain.

"Do you like that, Jason?" He sucked at the bite.

"Yes, I love it." Jason told him as he watched him in the mirror.

"Good." Caleb made a matching mark on the other shoulder.

He felt his knees grow weak.

Slowly, Caleb nipped and licked his way down the other man's spine.

Jason thrust his hips forward a bit.

"Tell me what you like, Jason. Now." Caleb nipped at Jason's bottom.

"I like you mouth on me. I like when you bite me, when you make love to me." He told him, voice full of lust.

"Ah..." He knelt behind him, licking around his entrance

"Fuck." Jason nearly fell when Caleb's tongue ran over him.

"Like this?" He pushed his tongue inside.

He jerked back. "Shit, Caleb." He said, breathlessly.

Caleb lapped at him for a moment, then pulled his testicles into his mouth, sucking.

Jason bit his lip to keep from crying out again.

He purred, moving to stroke Jason's cock.

He wasn't sure how much more of this slow torture he could take before he shoved Caleb down and had his way with him.

Caleb licked him for a moment before he began to tongue Jason's ass again.

"Caleb, I can't take much more of this..." He managed to say.

He didn't hear, too lost in what he was doing.

Jason collapsed to his knees. He turned slowly to face his lover.

Caleb pouted. "I was enjoying that..."

"Sorry." He mumbled.

"Sure you are, my love..." Caleb kissed him deeply.

Jason slid his tongue into his mouth, moaning.

Caleb ground his erection against Jason as they kissed.

He pulled Caleb against him and opened his legs so Caleb has access to his body.

Moaning, Caleb entered the wolf, sinking deep into his heat.

Jason gripped his shoulder's, moaning.

"Jason... fuck, you're so tight..." Caleb's hips bucked.

He cried out his name as he raise his hips so Caleb could be buried even deeper inside of him.

Reaching down, Caleb began to stroke Jason's cock.

"I thought...you wanted me to come in your mouth."

Caleb pulled out of the wolf without coming before taking him into his mouth.

Jason thrust up into Caleb's mouth.

He sucked hard, flicking his tongue over the throbbing length.

"God..." He moaned, eyes closed.

Purring, Caleb watched his lover as he made love to him with his mouth.

Jason grabbed a handful of the cat's hair wanting all of his cock to be inside of him.

Taking all of Jason in, Caleb sucked, his purr vibrating around Jason's cock.

He pulled his lover's hair as he came, pouring down Caleb's throat.

Caleb groaned, swallowing him down.

Jason leaned back moaning in pleasure.

Slowly pulling back, Caleb laved Jason's cock, making sure he was clean.

He pulled Caleb up by his hair and kissed him.

He moaned, laying against his wolf, letting Jason take control.

"Take me, Caleb. Come inside of me." Jason told him, growling softly.

Caleb bit his lip, pushing back inside of the wolf.

He dug his nails into Caleb's hip drawing blood.

The leopard shouted out as he came, his hips bucking wildly.

Jason kissed him then laughed. "We're all dirty again."

"Your fault..." Caleb purred, boneless.

"I know, but it was so worth it." He kissed him again.

"Mmhm..." The cat closed his eyes.

Jason picked Caleb up and set him back in the tub.

Caleb growled at the sudden wetness, grabbing at Jason. "Not fair..."

He smiled at the cat and slid into the water. "Oh hush." He began to wash Caleb.

Caleb purred, cuddling up to Jason. "Better..."

"I still need to check on Jase and Nate." He sighed as he finished washing his lover and started on himself.

"I know." Caleb sighed, kissing Jason's lips before climbing from the tub. "I'm going to go clean... and pull out the couch for us to sleep on being that Sara's rom is where we use to sleep..."

Jason pulled out the plug and began to dry off. He pulled on some sweats and headed upstairs. "Jase? Nate? Everyone ok?" He asked as he entered their room.

Jase snuggled up to Nathaniel. "We're ok."

Nathaniel jerked sitting up in a protective motion, growling as he was still in leopard form, before realizing it was Jason.

He nodded at Nathaniel. "I'll watch over her if you want to shift back, Nate."

The leopard nuzzled Jase before hopping off the bed, causing it to sway and padding over to Jason and nuzzling his hand. He then proceeded into the bathroom.

Jason patted the cat's head as he sat down beside his sister. He smiled at her.

Caleb knocked on the door, poking his head in. "Um... I'm sorry, but... Jase? Where are the spare sheets and stuff?"

"Oh, sorry. They're in the hallway cabinet on the top shelf." She smiled at him.

"Don't be sorry." He came into the room a little and bent, hugging her. "Are you alright? Need anything?"

Jase returned the hug. "I'm ok, just a little on edge." She kissed his cheek. "And Jason put a shirt on. We have a teenage girl living here now." She kicked her brother off the bed. Jason landed on the floor with a 'oof'.

"Oww. My ass." He rubbed said ass and pouted.

"Oh. Jase, Sara called. She's staying at Mika's tonight. She didn't want to make anyone drive anywhere..." Caleb explained. "I"m sorry, I should have told you, but you were resting..."

"The submissive were job is taken, Caleb. You're Smart-Ass were." Nathaniel quipped, coming back into the bedroom, nude.

"Ahh, then don't worry about the shirt Jay." She smiled at him and pulled Nathaniel into bed with her.

"I'm leaving before they do it." Jason scrambled out the door as Jase kissed Nathaniel.

Caleb laughed. "Night, you two." He followed Jason as Nathaniel kissed her back.

Jase mounted him as she deepened the kiss. "You know, you're my hero."

"I didn't do anything..." He kissed her, his hand softly rubbing her belly.

"I froze when I saw him and you saved us." She pressed his hand against her belly, smiling.

"I had to, Jase... I couldn't..." Nathaniel met her gaze, swallowing. "I couldn't let him hurt you again... our baby..."

"I know. You save us." Jase kissed him. "And soon he'll be dead and we can move on with our lives."

"Very dead." He kissed her back, purring before he paused. "Reginald?!"He asked, incredulous.

Jase snickered. "Hey, it's Jason's middle name too."

Nathaniel burst out laughing. "Oh, I've GOT to tell Caleb!"

"It's a family name." She told him again. "Remember, it's also my father's middle name."

He forced a straight face. "Of course... and it's not as bad as Nicky's middle name..." He paused. "The picture..."

"Is gone, but I can ask Emiko for another. She'll understand." She stroked the side of his face. "Do you believe her now?"

Nathaniel swallowed. "Yes..." His voice was shaky. "I don't want to... but I do... I..."

"I think it'll really sink in if you meet him.'' Jase suggested softly.

"Yeah." He hugged her, silent as tears glimmered in his eyes. His entire life... it could have been so very different...

She hugged him tightly. "We were given Nicky back. Just smile and be happy."

He nodded. "I'm trying..."

"I hear Gregory has been keeping Emiko company." Jase smiled.

"I... haven't been paying attention..." Nathaniel squeezed his eyes closed. "I'm sorry, Jase... can we please talk about this tomorrow? I'll call her..."

She kissed him quickly. "Sure. Let's get some rest. I've never had such a stressful day."

He hugged her to him. "I love you..."

"I love you too." She nipped at his ear.

Nathaniel jumped, not having expected that. "Brat..."

Jase laughed. "You know you like it."

"Never said I didn't... but you're still a brat." He kissed her, nibbling her lower lip.

She held him down and nipped at him again.

"Jase..." He moaned, baring his neck to her.

Jase moved down to his neck and bit down, marking him.

"Yes..." He hissed the words between clenched teeth, growing hard against her.

She soothed the bite with her tongue.

He cupped her breast, tweaking the nipple. "God, you're heaven..."

"Don't say that, Nathaniel. I'm just a wolf who finally found her mate." She murmured against his neck.

He slid his hand into her hair, making her look at him. "You're the closest thing to heaven that I'll ever see, Jase... I love you... don't ask me to stop telling you."

Several emotion flooded her eyes as she began to cry. "I'm not heaven, Nathaniel. Not for you, not for anyone." She pulled away. "I can't be that." She pressed a hand to her chest, just over her heart. The way Nathaniel looked at her was the same way Steven had looked at her, like she was his whole world. She'd rejected Steven, refused to be his lupa and now that Nathaniel's eyes held the same look...

"Jase... Please, don't cry... I'm sorry... I didn't... what did..." He nearly panicked, reaching to wipe the tears from her face.

"I can't be your world, Nathaniel." She sobbed. "I just can't do it." She shook her head. She'd seen the broken look in Steven's eyes the day she'd finally left. She didn't want to hurt Nathaniel the same way.

"What do you want from me, Jase? I'll do it. I'll do anything... you know that, don't you...?" Nathaniel stood from the bed unsurely.

"Don't say that." Jase rubbed her hands over her face. "I don't own you Nathaniel. This isn't just about me." She fled the room and then the house. Jason shouted as she ran out the front door but Jase screamed for everyone to leave her alone.

Nathaniel nodded slowly, fisting his hands before he began to get dressed. She didn't own him... he was giving himself to her. There was a large difference apparently too finite for her to see. He was one of the biggest fools in the world for thinking that they could be happy together... him and Jase... a stripper and the writer who happened to be very, amazingly talented. He was trash, a prostitute... and certainly not a decent father figure.

Anita hadn't wanted his love when he'd been with her... Jase didn't now. It wasn't a surprise. A decent person wouldn't want him.

He turned, taking the wedding vows he'd written to Jase out of the drawer, gripping them as if he was getting ready to tear them before setting them on the dresser and heading downstairs, heading for the door.

Jason grabbed him. "Don't leave, Nathaniel. We need to talk." He hugged the cat tightly.

Nathaniel shoved him away. "I'm not staying... and you should go after her. Shayne could be out there." Doubtful, very doubtful, but it was possible.

"Caleb took off after her. And you are staying. Jase will be pissed at herself if you leave. Just let her calm down and let me talk to you. I've learned a lot since Jase moved here." He moved Nathaniel over to the couch. "Things she never told me or my parents until now." He frowned not sure he should tell Nathaniel.

"Look, Jason, I just want to get the hell out of here. Trust me, one big fuck up, or several is enough. You were right the first time around about the two of us." He shoved a hand through his hair. "I'm not staying."

"Yes, you are. Listen, Nathaniel, the things you said to her, Steven once told her and she feels like she ripped out his heart and stomped on it. After I left, Jase went through a very dark period in her life. She felt alone and she tried to kill herself. If it wasn't for Steven she would have succeeded. But she didn't love him, no matter how much he wanted her too. She feels bad for what happened between her and him and then say the same words to her." Jason looked away for a second. "She thinks she’ll hurt you somehow and be right back where she was the night she tried to take her own life."

Nathaniel looked away. "I'm sorry." He swallowed, standing. "She has my cell phone number, Jason... I'll be at the Circus." He headed for the door, then paused. "You might want to burn the paper on the dresser... if she... she won't want to read it. Not now."

"Nathaniel, please don't leave her." Jason begged, "She told me that she's scared out of her mind... the way you look at her like she's you're whole world. Mostly, she scared that she'll lose the baby again. Two miscarriages gets a girl thinking..."

"What the hell do you want from me, Jason?! To give her my heart, My soul? Oh, wait- I'll tell her she's my world! My heaven! The only God damned, fucking thing in my life that has made it worth living? The truth?" Tears streamed down Nathaniel's face. "Maybe I should lie... tell her how pretty she is, but she's only a good fuck to me, like Anita was? Tell her I don't love her, and that I don't want this? She's scared because she's got the world in her hands... because she is happy... when I'm scared that this is all a dream and I'm going to wake up because that's all this feels like is a fucking dream come true. This is what I've wanted my entire life, Jason... and now... I'm not supposed to be happy about it or be thankful for it..." He looked down. "You tell me, Jason... what would you do?"

Jason took a deep breath. "Caleb and you went through a lot of the same things. If it was Jase asking for help, I'd know what to say, but Jase and I...I left her once Nate, to become something she hated. She hated that she was a wolf. She hated herself and she tried to make it stop. She has the world in her hands, but she doesn’t want to drop it. Jase doesn't see herself like other people do. She's sees the whore Gary made her feel like and the murderer. She sees blood on her hands and she doesn’t feel like she should she deserves to be seen as someone's angel."

"Then how the hell does she see me?" Nathaniel shook his head. "I won't leave... but I'm not staying in
our room. Just... get rid of the damn paper, alright?" He moved, going into Sara's room.

"She sees you as her world. She leans on you more than you realize. She can't be your whole world when she can't stand on her own two feet without you." Jason said softly.

"Drop it, Jason. Now." Nathaniel growled the words. "I'm done talking."

Jase was shaking uncontrollable and whimpering as Caleb carried her through the front door. She was clinging to Caleb as if afraid to have him let go.

"Sshh... Jason!" Caleb carried her to the couch, sitting with her in his lap.

Jase was still shaking as he darted out of Sara's room. He saw what a mess a sister was. "I...I'm an idiot..." She was sobbing so hard she was coughing.

"Jason..." Caleb rocked Jase gently, unsure of what to do.

She struggled against Caleb as her lungs burned with the lack of oxygen, she tired to calm down but her mind screamed that she was a fuck up and had ruined it all. She managed to get away as she dashed into the bathroom and threw up. She couldn't stop coughing and the vomit was choking her.

Nathaniel squeezed his eyes shut, trying to ignore the sounds of Jase crying, but... when he heard her being sick... He stood, going into the bathroom, pulling her hair back. "Breathe, Jase-Lynn..."

Jason moved to be with his sister, but seeing Nathaniel go to her made him pause.

"Don't...call...me...that." She gasped trying to breathe, but she couldn't stop coughing. It was like her lungs were having a seizure. She was still shaking badly. "I ruined...us."

"No... you came close, but I helped... I'm still here." He kissed her temple. "Breathe with me, alright? Slow breaths..."

Jase took deep breaths, trying not to hyperventilate. "St-Steven said I was his world...and I just stomped on his heart. I-I am a horrible person. I can't be a good mother. I'll just ruin this child." She was breathing as normally as she could while still crying.

"Jase." Nathaniel spoke firmly. "Listen to me.... I'm not Steven. Do you love me?"

"Yes..." She said, voice trembling.

"Then we can make this work. We support each other- and I know you support me just as much as I support you, so don't argue when I say this is heaven. I count on both of us to make it that. Us fighting? That's part of heaven. That's how it works to me. I don't want you to worry about being perfect for me, because even perfection is flawed, Jase." He smoothed her hair. "And you'll be the best mother I can think of, though we might have to change the bed... I don't want a little kid asking questions about it. And we'll have to cut down on you spanking me... unless you can come up with a really good excuse as to why... but we'll make it. We'll be good parents... together... alright?"

Jase buried her face in his chest. "When I first met you Nathaniel, you were still so broken. You reminded me of how I felt, alone. My wolf howled in anguish and the leopard in you answered her call." She was shaking as badly now, but now her throat felt raw and her eyes burned. "I am afraid of the future because until I met you I had no one in that future but me."

Titling her face to his, he kissed her eyes, lifting her into his arms. "You need to rest, Jase. I'm not going anywhere."

"Promise?" She said weakly.

"I promise." Carefully, he carried her upstairs.

Jase wrapped her arms around his neck, dully noting that her brother and Caleb had made themselves scarce. "I'm sorry I yelled at you for saying I was your world."

"Just forget it, Jase..." Nathaniel set her gently on the bed, then remembered the paper on the dresser, grabbing it and ripping it up.

Jase looked over at him. "Nathaniel...what was that?"

"Nothing important." He kicked off his shoes.

"Don't lie to me."

"I'm not lying... it wasn't important... just something stupid I wrote that doesn't matter..."

She hugged her pillow to her chest. She let it go and just laid there in silence.

"Jase..." He sighed. "They were my vows..."

"Why'd you tear up your vows?" She asked, suddenly afraid he's call off the wedding.

"Because I need to rewrite them..." Nathaniel shoved a hand through his hair. "They were stupid..."

"No, you have to rewrite them because I freaked out on you." Jase said face pressed against her pillow.

He just looked away.

She knew she was right so she didn't say anything.

"Let's just go to bed..." He stripped down to his lilac colored shorts and crawled in.

Jase snorted as he stripped down.

He froze. "What?"

"Your boxers match you eyes. It's just funny."

Nathaniel gave her an odd look. "These are my favorite boxers..."

"I don't get to see your underwear much since you usually don't wear any." She pointed out.

"Oh. Yeah." He shrugged. "Anita always made me dress."

"I'm a shifter. I understand." Jase said, not wanting to think about the fact that she'd killed Anita several hours beforehand.

"Nah. You just like to see me naked."

She laughed. "That too." She rolled over so she could bury her face in his chest.

"I'd kiss you... but not until you brush. Sorry, Jase." Nathaniel smiled at her.

Jase groaned and rolled out of bed. She could still taste the bile in the back of her throat, but she'd forgotten about it when he'd come in. She brushed her teeth in the master bathroom and crawled back into bed.

"Better..." Nathaniel kissed her softly. "Now... sleep."

She closed her eyes. "What was your mother's name?" Her voice was so low only a shifter could have heard her question.

"Carin." He said after a moment.

"If we have a girl, I'd like to name her after your mother. I bet she was a wonderful person." She whispered.

"Jase..."

"Hmm?"

"Goodnight."

She smiled, wondering what he'd really wanted to say, but she simply told him, "Goodnight."
