Chapter Sixty: My brother’s mate
Gabe
I couldn’t help but watch Tillie and her mates. There was just something about the way they were with her and how she was with
them. I had never been attracted to a woman before. But there was something about her that called to my wolf. She was striking
with her pale skin and dark auburn hair. The claiming bites around her throat stirred something deep inside of me. What would
my bite look like on her skin? Would she touch me the way that she did her mates?
She reminded me of Gideon, the soft, gentle way in which she handled her mates. Letting them lead her through the woods with
me. The way that she had accepted their touches, seeking them out like a magnet. It was just so much like my brother that it
made me want to be around her.
To know what it would be like to be the center of her world.
Even if it was just for a moment because that’s all that it could ever be. Well, if I got to be with her. I knew that it wouldn’t happen.
I couldn’t betray Gideon like that. He wouldn’t be able to bear it to know that I had taken what was his. I couldn’t do that to him.
We were all we had in this world, and I would never hurt him.
I couldn’t help but wonder what it would be like if I had seen her first. Would she have been willing to have me like she had Travis
and Jason? Like she would have my brother as well?
Shaking my head, I pushed away from the tree that I had been leaning against as I watched her hug her mate. He was an alpha,
just as hot as Travis was and I felt a swell of jealousy rise up in the pit of my stomach. She wasn’t even a shifter, yet she had
these men who had mated with her.
Leaning back against a tree, I looked at her, biting my lower lip. “So your other mate is also an alpha? Seems like you’ve got
quite the collection. Are you sure there will be room enough for my brother?
* More than enough. This is still really new to me, but Gideon’s mine. Just like Ryan, Travis, and Jason are, I, I couldn’t imagine
being without them.” She answered, and I knew that I needed to let it go, that she would take care of my brother. That she didn’t
need someone like me interfering with her little group.
“Good.” I said, but the word felt hollow. She thought that she had enough of herself to give to Gideon. I needed to be happy for
my brother, not jealous. Finding your mate was something we all wanted. Gideon didn’t need to know how I was feeling, and
after he was mated to her, it wouldn’t matter.

She would be my brother’s mate.
There was a yelp from deep inside of the woods and Travis tensed up, looking out into the distance. I could tell that he wanted to
go to the one that had made the sound. Was it the man who had left their claiming bite on his neck?,
“Ryan.” He whispered before looking back at Tillie. She nodded at him, her hands fluttering around her like little birds. The scent
of her fear blossomed sweetly into the air like a heady drug calling out to me. Closing my eyes, I breathed in the scent. Willing
myself to remember it for later when I was alone. She smelled so much like something I wanted to hunt.
“Go, I’ve got Tillie.”
I couldn’t give in to my needs right now, not when I was supposed to be helping them get to Gideon. I watched Travis strip down.
I couldn’t help but eye the way his muscles flexed as he stripped before shifting. I was beginning to wonder if the goddess had
cursed me.
The pulls of desire that I felt towards Tillie and her mates were only stronger the more that I was around them. The fact that Tillie
hadn’t snapped at me for ogling her mate or for flirting with him only fed into the desire that I was struggling with. If she had just
told me to stop, would have buried those feelings. It hadn’t been any easier when her mate would look at me with that hungry
look in his eyes. I knew that he wanted me just as much as I wanted him.
He wasn’t going to give in and really. I didn’t want him to. It would hurt my brother if he did. Because I knew there was no way my
brother wasn’t going to be with him, he was an alpha and Gideon would submit.
Jason and Tillie talked for a moment before she said my brother’s name and looked over at me with her big blue eyes.
“He’s close.” I answered, looking into the distance.
“Where is he?” Tillie asked and I knew that she had to be exhausted. I could hear the tiredness in her voice and see it on her
face.
Closing my eyes, I breathed in, letting the bond that I shared with Gideon draw me into where he was. We were close enough
that his scent traveled on the breeze, but there was another scent. One that I didn’t like. The smell of Jamison, cheap whiskey
mixed with smokey
tobacco. Opening my eyes, I pushed away from the tree.

*This way.” i said over my shoulder, listening to Tillie and Jason follow me into the woods. As we walked, I felt something cold in
the pit of my stomach. Pain ripped at my insides and I knew something was wrong.
“Brother.” I gasped before taking off in the direction that I felt my wolf pull me towards.
There was a yelp of pain followed by a roar, the sound shaking the trees. It pushed me faster until I reached the clearing in the
woods. Travis stood over my brother, his teeth bared as he snarled at the large tricolored wolf whose muzzle was covered in a
thick red smear. A few feet off to the side lay another wolf; his dark fur was matted with blood.
