“Fine.” I answered, pulling my leggings on.
“Babygirl, I’m sorry. I just don’t like how close he is to you,” he sighed.
“Derek, he is my friend. And you should trust me. It’s not like he showed up at the tent na*ked. He was saying goodbye to a friend.” I told him, pulling on a sweater. I moved past him to go check on James.
“Mason, were you able to get James in to see the doctor today? I would have called, but I didn’t know who to talk to in this pack.” I asked Mason as I walked back over to bed. Mason was still lying beside James.
“I’ll get on that. We brought your bag back.” He said, pointing to my bag on the floor. I was happy, I forgot that my phone and wallet were in it. How was I supposed to buy things for James without my wallet? I dug around for my phone and wallet, pulling them out of my bag. I put my dead phone on a charger by the bed and put my wallet on the dresser near the door.
“Did both of you come up with a plan about what to do with King Theo?” I asked them.
“Sage is going to help track down his mate.” Mason told me.
“I have to thank her.” I said.
“The doctor will see us in about 20 minutes,'” Mason told me. Mason and Derek got ready, as I was lying with James until they were done. It was weird for us to be all back at the apartment. It feels like we haven’t been here in months, when it’s only been a few days.
When they were ready, I picked James up, and we made our way to the pack hospital across the street.
After a nurse showed us into a room, the doctor came in to look at James. He was in perfect health. There was a bunch of paperwork to fill out since he was technically a home birth. When I was done with all the paperwork, Mason and Derek stepped out of the room so the doctor could check me out. He also told me he had spoken with the other doctor about birth control options for witches, and we came up with a plan.
She had portaled over a few options, but couldn’t be here herself. I got an implant inserted. Since then, I won’t have to worry about taking a pill. He had to check on me, anyway. It was uncomfortable, but worth it. When he was all done, he gave me the all clear to travel, but he’d like to see both me and James in the next six weeks.
l exited the room to find my guys waiting for me. Mason was holding James, who was now awake and alert. He was looking up at his daddy with his big sea-green eyes.
“Everything okay, Babygirl?” Derek asked me, and I nodded.
“We should really go shopping to get James things that he needs. I need to head to Blue Moon tomorrow.” I told them.
“Baby, why don’t I go shopping and get him a few things and you take James home with Derek. I think that you both need to have some time together,” Mason said.
“Are you sure?” I asked him.
“l can feel your stress through the bond. Both of you need some time together, and I’ll be quick,” he answered me.
“Okay. Can you get me a carrier for him?” I asked him. He passed me James and pecked my l!ps.
“l find one for you, Baby.”
We walked back to the pack house. Mason left us and headed to the garage to go shopping. Derek and I made our way up to our apartment. We really needed a bigger home. I’ll have to have that conversation with Mason and Derek about where we should live. Both will be inheriting kingdoms, and will turn into very busy men.
Derek and I stepped out of the elevator into our living room. I sat down on the floor with my back against the couch. I laid James between my legs. He was looking around the room. Derek sat the diaper bag down by my feet and headed into the kitchen. He came back over to me and passed me some water.
“Thank you,” I told him. He sat down beside me and wrapped an arm around my shoulder. Resting my head on his shoulder. We were both watching James, watching the world around him.
“Babygirl, I’m sorry I didn’t tell you about Theo and I,” Derek said.
“Derek, I’m not upset about that. I was a little stunned, but not mad. You have a past, I know that. I was upset about Chantel because I didn’t know why she was there or why she smelt like you. I never felt you cheat and I trust you.” He sighed as I told him.
“So, why are you feeling guilty?” I asked him. I could feel his guilt through the bond. It was overflowing into me.
“Theo wants to sever the bond between him and Rachel. He wants me to talk to you about marking him.” Derek said.
“And how do you feel about it2” I asked him. I knew how Mason and I felt, but Derek had some type of relationship with the vampire king.
“I don’t know. I’ve always felt a pull toward him. But seeing the hurt in Mason’s eyes when Theo told him about us hurt me to the core. I don’t want to hurt Mason.” He confessed.
“Let’s just find Rachel and figure this mess out. I wasn’t planning on taking a third mate, and Mason has asked me not to.”1 told him and he squeezed me into his side.
“I figured he mentioned it. I told Theo I would just ask, nothing more. Both of you are my mates and it’s up to all of us. I know he’s one of our mates as well, but he already has a mate,” Derek said, and I sighed.
“Why do l feel like my decision might start a war?”

Mason came home a few hours later with dinner, and was so thankful. Mason had bought an entire baby store, and I did not know where we were going to put any of it.
After we finished dinner, they built the bassinet while I gave James a bath before getting him ready for bed. He was such a wonderful baby. He was so calm, even when I wasn’t. Just having him near me made me a calmer, more patient person.
James was ready for bed by the time the guys brought in the cute bassinet. It will have to do until we can build a crib. I was going to talk to my mates about a bigger place. We need an actual home for James.
After I had James placed in his bed, I limbed in between my mates, only wearing one of Derek’s shirts. Both of them snuggled into me.
“So I’ve been thinking.” I started after I was comfy.
“Oh, no.” Mason grumbled.
“What did we do now?” Derek asked me sarcastically.
“Really, why do you automatically go to bad news?” I asked them. Both of them sat up on their elbows and gave me a pointed look. I rolled my eyes at both of them.
“Anyway, I thought we needed to figure out where we are going to live. We need a bigger place, and I would like a yard for James to play in. And then we need to figure out what is going to happen when you both take over your kingdoms.” I told them.
“You’ve been thinking, huh?” Derek said, and I nodded.
“My father has a bigger place. It’s surrounded by the forest behind the pack house,” Mason told us.
“Really?” I asked him.
“Yeah, dad and I moved here after mom passed away. It was too much to stay there.” He said sorrowfully.
“Awe, Mason. We can find somewhere else.” I told him, touching his cheek.
“No, it’s okay. I think mom would have wanted us to live there.” he said.
“Only if you are sure,” I told him firmly.
“I’m sure, Baby. James can have my old room,” Mason said with a smile.
“Have either of you told your dads about James? 0r that we were even expecting?” I asked them and they were both silent.
“Before we leave tomorrow, you need to call them.” I told them. I had no one to call, so I wasn’t disappointing anyone.
“Did you tell Gregory?” Derek asked, and I frowned, looking over at him.
“Why would 1?” I asked him, confused.
“He is your father” he said, and I sighed.
“Yeah, but it’s not like he’s a part of my life. I’m not ready to deal with that yet.” I told him and he nodded.
“Okay, Babygirl. Whenever you are ready” Derek said, k!ssing my neck.
“Now, what are we going to do when you guys take over?” l asked them both. Derek was k!ssing down my neck and Mason was running his hand up my th!gh, dangerously close to my pvssy.
“Will both of you stop it?” I m0aned out.
“You don’t really mean that, do you, Baby?” Mason’s voice was husky with lvst as he k!ssed the other side of my neck. I was dripping, and my pvssy ached with need.
Mason surprised me by grabbing Derek and crushing his l!ps to his. I came undone, just from watching them. So god damn hot. They pulled out of the k!ss and looked at me.
“Well, I’m done. Good night.” I told them, rolling onto my side.
“We are just getting started, Babygirl” Derek gr0aned in my ear. He cupped my na*ked pvssy, and I pushed my a*ss into his c0ck, still trapped in his boxers.
