    Chapter 3: Shift and Sniff and Squirt


    The pain shot through me. It was excruciating. I screamed. My bones lengthened and rearranged


    themselves. Sandy-coloured fur enveloped my form. My eyesight and hearing became so sharp. I


    stood on all fours. I howled. I was a wolf. I ran through the night, white snow beneath me and ck sky


    above me. I practically flew. When I had tired of running. I made my way back to my clothes. They


    would probably so cold after lying in the snow. I focused on what I looked like human and my bones


    started breaking again. It was painful but not nearly as bad as the first time. I put on my clothes and


    headed inside. The triplets had gone out to ring in the first few minutes of their twenty-first birthday with


    some of their friends at a bar.


    I passed by their rooms. The house had three floors. The Alpha and Luna slept on the top floor. The


    Triplets and I slept on the middle floor. I had a tiny converted storage room and each triplet had a


    master bedroom and bathroom. There was the most delicious smelling from Calix’s room. I snuck


    in. He was the least scary of the triplets so I did not mind if he caught my scent when he came home


    and realised I had been in his home. His room literally smelled like freshly baked chocte chip


    cookies. I looked around. Maybe he had pot cookies or something. I did not find anything. Ugh. I had


    put my scent all over some of his stuff for nothing.


    I walked out and caught another scrumptious scent. This one wasing from the middle master


    bedroom that belonged to Felix. I dared not go in there but I sniffed the doorway. The smell reminded


    me of sweet coconut shavings. There was a tropical edge to it. I breathed it in, wondering why I had


    never picked it up before. My heart started to race. I was afraid to go near Alex’s room but I had to


    know. If all three rooms suddenly smelled great to me then…


    I refused to think about it. I walked over to Alex’s door. I picked up the scent. The strong smell of coffee


    and cocoa hit me. My mouth watered a little. Did Alex smell that good? The window blew open


    suddenly and all three scents wafted down the hallway. Theirbined scents hit me and moisture


    pooled in my underwear. I was in big trouble. I went to my tiny room and locked the door. I tried to fall


    asleep but I kept tossing and turning. Those scents were guing me. Would they smell me when they


    returned home? Would I suddenly smell different now to them? I did not want to analyse it too much.


    Maybe my enhanced sense of smell was just picking up a lot that I had not noticed before. Maybe


    everyone smelled this good.


    Third Person


    Calix, Felix and Alex sauntered in the house at around three in the morning. It was Saturday. Later


    tonight, they had their official birthday party and alpha ceremony. Celebrating with their girlfriends and


    their “bros” from the town had left them exhausted and a little tipsy. It was difficult for werewolves to get


    drunk no matter how much alcohol they had but the triplets had really done their best. They said good


    night and happy birthday to each other and parted ways.


    Calix stumbled into his room. A familiar scent greeted him but there was some unmistakable new


    element to it like a new ingredient enhancing an old favourite recipe of his. Someone had been in his


    room. A girl. She smelled like roses and honeysuckle. He shivered. That scent was driving him crazy.


    He could not sleep. It was all over everything. He felt as if he recognised the smell but he could not say


    exactly who it was. Surely he would have noticed and remembered someone who smelled this good.


    He could not take it anymore when the sun came up. He banged on his brothers’ doors. They greeted


    him still half-asleep.


    “What’s wrong, little bro?” Asked Alex, concern evident on his face.


    “It better be good. It’s six o’ clock in the morning. We partiedst night and we’re partying tonight,” said


    Felix, doing a little dance and yawning.


    “Smell my room,” said Calix.


    His brothersughed. He walked away from them. They followed him.


    “Enough bullshit!” Said Felix storming into Calix’s room. Felix stopped in his tracks. Alex entered and


    his eyes widened.


    “Oh my God,” said Felix. “What is that?” The Alpha started sniffing about his brother’s room.


    “Little Bro, who was in your room?” Asked Alex sharply.


    “You’ve been with our mate!” Said Felix, growling. “You’re keeping her all to yourself.”


    “No, I don’t know whose scent it is and it’s driving me crazy,” said Calix with tired eyes.


    “Our mate’s been in this room,” said Felix gleefully.  “She found us! Oh I can’t wait to get my hands on


    her.” Felix growled again.


    “What about Sandra, Tonya and Avery?” Asked Calix, mentioning their current girlfriends.


    “We’ve only been dating them like a couple weeks! They know they’re not our mates so it was a


    temporary thing! I’m gonna end it with Tonya over the phone,” said Felix dismissively.


    “Yeah,” agreed Alex. “If we can find our mate in time for the party we don’t want the girls showing up


    and harassing her.”


    “Yeah, they’d be jealous,” said Calix. “And there’s one of her and three of them so we better tell them


    before tonight.”


    The brothers were in agreement, all sitting on Calix’s bed.


    “Who would be in my room?” Calix wondered.


    “There’s something familiar about the smell,” said Alex, smiling. “It kinda smells a little like…” Alex


    paused, frowning. He got up and ran down the hallway. He stood in front of the door to Chasity’s little


    makeshift room. The same smell hit him. It made him shiver. Honeysuckle and Roses. He sighed. He


    found her door unlocked and opened it eagerly to reveal an empty room with the cot in the corner


    made. His face fell.


    It suddenly dawned on him just how small Chasity’s room waspared to the other bedrooms in the


    house. There were empty guest bedrooms bigger than this room. Why didn’t his parents give her one


    of those?


    His brothers came up behind him. Felix looked dumbfounded. Calix walked into Chasity’s room andy


    in her cot, hugging her pillow, deeply inhaling her scent.


    “I’m gonna wait for her toe back, right here,” he said, curling up on her tiny cot. It wasically


    small for the six-foot-four Alpha.


    “I wanna go get her right now,” said Felix, his eyes worried. “We have a lot of talking to do.”


    “Rx, Felix,” said Alex. “Our mate already lives with us so we’re good,” said the eldest Alpha grinning.


    “No, we’re not good you idiots!” Said Felix staring at them. “Our mate is Charity. Charity!”


    “Don’t call her that!” Snarled Calix, his blue eyes turning ck.


    “Sorry! Sorry! s**t! It’s a bad habit. Chasity,” Felix said. Her real name felt good to say out loud.


    “What’s your problem?” Asked Alex. He was looking through Chasity’s things, thinking of all the stuff he


    was going to buy her. She hardly had anything so she would be easy to surprise. It was her birthday


    too after all.


    “We have to go to the mall as soon as it opens at ten,” he told his younger brothers. “It’s Chasity’s


    birthday too and I’m sure Mom and Dad didn’t get her anything.”


    “Are you hearing yourself?” Asked Felix.


    “Again! What is your problem?” Alex asked Felix. Calix opened his eyes to re at Felix.


    “Chasity is our mate! We had no idea because she was not of age until today!” Felix said, waving his


    arms around like a mad man.


    Calix and Alex were not following.


    “We’ve treated Chasity like s**t! When she realises she’s our mate, she’s going to reject us!” Said Felix.

    Calix shot up into a sitting position. “No, she’s not,” the youngest said. “No, she can’t. We’ve been


    waiting three years for our mate.”


    “Chasity said she didn’t want a mate, remember?” Said Felix, spelling it out for them.


    “Yeah,” said Alex. “But when the mate bond actually hits her, she’ll be putty in our hands.”


    Calix beamed, grinning at Alex. “Yep,” Calix agreed.


    Felix rolled his eyes. “Do you remember why Chasity did not want a mate? She said because he’d be


    mean to her like we were. Her mate is literally us.”


    Calix and Alex were starting to look worried.


    “She’s going to freak out!” Said Felix. “She’s going to try to leave. Remember, she’s been talking about


    turning eighteen, finishing high school and leaving!”


    Alex smirked. “She has seven more months of high school. It’s November. We have until June or July


    with her to convince her otherwise.”


    Felix calmed down a little, thinking it over.


    Calix grinned wickedly, his dimples showing, mischief in his baby blue eyes, “Chasity might hate us


    now but by next summer we’ll be making her squirt.”


    His elder brothers burst intoughter.
