them she hadn’t seen in years. People talked and laughed with her father.

Chapter Six
     
    “Hey, Mom, do you need any help?” Sierra entered the kitchen. Women gathered all around the kitchen island. They talked and prepared food to be baked. Her older sister stood in the middle instructing others where things should go.
    “No, honey, we have it all under control. Go and rest. I don’t want those stitches to come apart again.” Mary Ann smiled.
    Sierra turned and pretended to go upstairs, but darted towards the front door. With no guards around, she slipped outside, inhaling the cool air. Walking to the swing, she slowly leaned back and gazed at the clear night sky. Stars twinkled brightly; it would be a beautiful night for a walk, but she knew not to risk it.
    Sighing, Sierra grabbed the blanket off the porch swing and pulled it over her, knowing supper wouldn’t be ready for another hour.
    “I knew you would sneak out here. I swear it’s like a convention in there. Your sister sure is in the middle of it again,” Amy stated, stepping out to join her. She stared at the woods as she held on to the railing.
    “I needed some time to myself. It’s been a long two days, and now I have these gargantuan men telling me they’re my mates. It’s bad enough that they say it, but now the whole family believes it. Do you know my dad even invited them to stay here in the house?” Sierra pointed to the house. “Amy, they’re gorgeous and they’ve been with so many women.” She paused and ran a hand through her hair.
    “I mean, come on, I have hips and an ass that’s twice the normal size of any decent woman. My breasts are watermelons, and even my hair is a curly mess. On top of that, now I’m going to have scars running across my back, not to mention my black eye that will pop up soon enough. I can’t believe I almost gave Jack my virginity. It scares the shit out me. How do I know to trust any man again?” sierra whispered and closed her eyes, laying her head back against the swing.
    Amy’s footsteps moved closer. Opening her eyes, Sierra smiled at her friend as she sat near the swing.
    “Sierra, I don’t know about the trust part. I guess they’ll have to go slowly, but you have to give them a chance too. I heard your dad talking to mine, and he told him when the three of you are together, the colors of your energies entwine so tightly that you can’t tell one from the other.” Amy grabbed her hand.
    “He said the haze was a bright blue, pure and strong. You know if this is true, they’re your mates. And I don’t know why you’re complaining about your hair. Hell, I wish I had hair like yours. I’ve seen the way those two stare at you, so you don’t have to worry about your body. They want to eat you up every time they look at you. So what if you don’t have the sexual experience? I’m sure they’d rather have you pure, knowing that you’re going to be with them. Unless, of course, they’re into sharing.” She wiggled her eyebrows at her.
    “What?” Sierra gaped at Amy. “Don’t you think two is enough? I mean, come on. They’re already talking about shoving their cocks up my ass, pussy and in my mouth.” Heat rose in her face. Sierra remembered when they made love to her with their fingers.
    “Okay, what are you thinking? It must be good because your face is flushed,” Amy teased.
    “Well, let’s say they gave me a sample of what’s to come.” She smiled. “The ass thing scares me a little, even though the sound of it excites me. Hey, what’s a ball gag?”
    “Where did you hear that?”
    “Garth mentioned that they might have to use one on me, because, well, I might shout a lot.” Sierra snorted then burst out laughing.
    Amy’s laughter joined hers.
    “Well, from what I’ve read, a ball gag is used in BDSM sex. There are all sorts of toys out there. It sounds like fun, although the things I’ve read are wild. You know, my old
