of closeness with him. She had a hard time believing what she had done with Blake and his brothers, but it felt so right.
    Men had never taken much of an interest in her before now. It wasn’t that she was bad looking. Okay, maybe she had a few extra pounds on her hips that she could never manage to work off. But there just seemed to be something about her that men had always shied away from. Maybe it had something to do with this damned cat that was stalking around in her head. Kate huffed, wondering if men had unconsciously sensed something bizarre about her that she had never before been aware of.
    “Something wrong?” Blake’s voice finally made her open her eyes and admit that she was awake.
    “Not really. Just thinking.” Blake narrowed his eyes like he knew that wasn’t really an answer, but he didn’t press her on it.
    “How are you feeling?”
    She thought about that question for a moment. With Blake rubbing his hand over her bare back, she thought it should feel soothing. Instead, her skin felt weird.
    “I’m not sure.” She squirmed against his touch, and his hand stopped moving. “It’s like my skin is extra sensitive or something.”
    Now that she was thinking about it, she was starting to feel a little uncomfortable. She sat up, not caring that the sheet fell from her and exposed her breasts. It wasn’t like Blake hadn’t seen everything she had, after all. She knew with anyone else she would feel embarrassed, but somehow she knew that with Blake and his brothers, she could never feel ashamed of her body or who she was.
    She looked down at her arms and chest. Even though her skin looked normal, it felt irritated. “It tingles. Everywhere.” She looked at Blake in confusion.
    “Come on, sweetheart.” He got out of bed and extended his hand to her. “That’s normal for what’s about to happen.”
    “What’s about to happen?” She could hear the fear and uncertainty in her voice.
    “You’ll love it. Trust me.”
    She looked up at Blake. She did trust him. She let him pull her out of bed and walk her to the door but stopped before he could open it.
    “Um, Blake? I’m not wearing anything.” Okay, so maybe she was still a little embarrassed. It was one thing to sit in bed naked, but she wasn’t used to walking around a house with no clothes on.
    Blake chuckled. “Don’t worry, sweetheart. We’ll all be naked soon enough.”
    Kate wasn’t sure she was quite ready for another round with the three brothers, though if she could get rid of this tingling sensation— which was quickly becoming a prickling feeling—she might be persuaded. She shrugged and stepped forward, allowing Blake to open the door and lead her into the living room.
    Drake and Jake immediately turned their heads toward the door, and their mouths dropped open. Okay, so now she was feeling a little embarrassed.
    “Guys, we need to get her outside.”
    She gaped up at Blake. “What? You want me to go out there in this storm like this?” She swept her hand down her body.
    “Actually, the eye is coming up on us. At the rate it’s moving, we should be good for about two hours.”
    Kate could only gape wordlessly, since Drake had started to undress while he was speaking. She realized that Blake and Jake were following suit, and all their clothes were quickly being discarded into piles on the floor.
    Blake pulled her around to face him and cupped her face in his hands. “Kate, now that you’ve mated to us, your cat wants out, and she’s not going to wait any longer. You need to shift.”
    Panic surged through Kate at his words. She shook her head in denial and backed away. “I can’t. I don’t know what to do.”
    “Don’t worry, babe.” Jake had come up behind her and put his arm around her waist. “Your cat knows what to do. All you have to do is follow her lead.”
    Kate wasn’t sure she understood or agreed with that statement, but she was willing to try just about anything if it would stop this damn
