was now looking at her as if he wanted nothing more than to throttle her.
    She looked back at Everett. “But I also don’t like being treated as if I were something disgusting.”
    Everett stared at her then shook his head. He didn’t get her at all. One minute she was all fired up about getting away from him and the twins as if they were the ones who were disgusting. Now she was peeved that the tables were turned and he’d let her know he wanted her gone as much as she wanted to go.
    But he did want her gone. Or at least he needed her gone. If she was still around when he and the twins went through the Change...
    “I just want to go home,” she said.
    “I get that,” Everett replied. “But you shouldn’t have come up into the mountains in the first place. At least not this time of year. What were you doing up here anyway?”
    “I told you. Taking pictures.”
    “Why?”
    “Because I’m a photographer.”
    “But why here?”
    She stared at him and he thought he saw something move behind her eyes. But he wasn’t sure what. He just got the feeling she was holding something back.
    “I freelance,” she finally said. “I was taking pictures for a magazine.”
    “What kind of a magazine?”
    She frowned. “The kind that wants pictures of mountains.”
    Everett eyed her from across the table. “You got no cause to get tetchy about it.”
    “I’m not being tetchy. I just don’t see what it has to do with anything or why you’re questioning me about it. I’m here now, aren’t I?”
    “Can’t deny that.” He tilted his head. “But since you’re in my house, I figure I got a right to know something about you and what you’re about.”
    Caleb suddenly pushed himself up from his chair. “Damn it, Everett. She doesn’t have to answer you if she doesn’t want to. She doesn’t belong to you.”
    Everett slowly rose from his chair. “Is that so? Then who does she belong to? You?”
    Jane glanced angrily between the two of them. “For your information, I don’t belong to anyone.”
    Everett ignored her. From where he stood he could smell her cunt. Even as men, his and the twins’ sense of smell was heightened. And if he could smell her, then so could Caleb. Even if she wasn’t aware of it or even wanted it, she was a woman ripe for fucking.
    The muscles along Caleb’s shoulders bunched, his hands balling into fists. Everett knew he wanted nothing more than to challenge him. Especially since Jane was there to witness it. If Everett accepted Caleb's challenge, and Caleb won, then he'd be alpha and he’d have first dibs on Jane.
    The blood pounded in Everett’s veins. Over his dead body. He took a menacing step towards Caleb.
    Avery rose from his chair and stepped between them.
    “Get out of my way, little brother,” Caleb snarled.
    “No. This isn't the time or place for this.” He pointedly looked over at Jane, who was staring wide-eyed at them.
    But Everett thought he saw something else in her eyes. Was it excitement? Her breath was coming fast, but that could just as well be the result of fear as of lust.
    He forced himself to relax. What the hell was he thinking? Losing control like that?
    He looked over at her. At her lush, full lips and equally lush body. She was the cause of it all. Her presence was spinning them around, making them lose control and forget who and what they were.
    But how could they help losing control? She was a woman. And it had been awhile since they‘d had one.
    Even now, Everett’s cock thickened as he imagined fucking her. And he wanted so much to fuck her. The wolf in him was howling for it. He wanted to fuck her until she screamed. Make her his. Only his. Though, with circumstances being the way they were, he knew he’d eventually have to share her with the other two.
    But only after he’d fucked her first. And for as many times as pleased him.
    Everett forced his mind away from such feverish thoughts. With the heat of Caleb's challenge scalding his lungs, and
