My Secret, My Bully, My Mates by Miss L

***"She's right babe, you blend in completely."*** Oliver scoots closer toas we slow down to get a better feel for the area. I look at him and I can still see him, but there is a shimmer to his fur. Not like glitter or metal, but a shift in the colors of his fur to match the surrounding area directly behind him.

I keep turning my head and notice Cam and Dakota are the same, then look down at myself and I can see the fur, but as I move or the breeze blows, the colors change to match what's behind it.

***"All three of you are the same. How are we doing this?"*** ***"Part of your magic, I guess. We're about to find out how well it works. You were right though." Oliver bumps my shoulder.

***"You're going to have to be more specific. What am I right about this tOliver?"*** His wolf givesa lopsided grin which is adorable.

***"It would have been nice to test our basic abilities before we get caught up in a fight, smart ass. It is kind of annoying to cinto this knowing we have enhanced abilities and magic, but have no idea what those abilities are or how to use them."*** ***"This has been my whole life since Alpha Reggie toldabout my connection to the royal family. No one knew what that connection meant forand what I would be able to do and now I have three mates, stype of prophecy surroundingand the Rogue King, magic coming out of every orifice I have, not to mention being somewhat of a freakshow before all of that."*** ***"Well, we love you freakshow, always have. Now tell us what your spidey senses are telling you. Cause I can't smell a thing out here anymore except the three of you and it sounds like the forest kind of turned off."*** Dakota comes up on my other side.

***too."*** Both Cam and Oliver say in the crazy twin speak. S~Earch the (Find)website on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.

***"That's interesting. I can't smell anything, but I can still hear really well. Like, I can hear the conversations of our warriors about 2 more miles out. Don't askhow I know that distance."*** I laugh as I try to explain myself.

We keep moving cautiously towards our warriors, looking around at everything, trying to notice anything out of place or just off. We made it to their camp without any incident though. I say camp loosley. We don't have homes on this part of our pack lands so there hasn't been anywhere for our warriors to stay while they run patrols here, so several tents like the big ones we used for my trials have been set up to shelter them. They are more sturdy than camping tents and can be set up and broken down in record time.

Lil and I shift ahead of the guys and just start walking into the group of warriors, not really thinking about the fact that it is still unusual to many of them that we can shift with our clothes still intact. ***"I still wish we had that particular skill."*** Dakota grumbles behind me.

***"Being naked after shifting has never bothered you before. What's your issue with it now?"*** I ask, smiling back at him.

***"I have a mate now, Sweetness. And all of this manliness is just for you now, no one else gets to see it."*** ***"Lil will get you all clothes, just shift behind me, you'll be fine for now. I don't think anyone really cares, when we have bigger problems to worry about."*** I roll my eyes at his tics. I'm sure everyone here has seen his junk in full swing and I don't even want to know how many of the females here have experienced him. A shudder runs throughat the brief thought.

"Lil, can you go roundup sshorts, apparently Dakota is being weird about shifting and being naked right now." She givesa look and I can only shrug then she takes off. She's never really seen them outside our group of friends, with everything going on and they have never been shy before.

***"Bitty, you do realize that even though you are a tad bit bigger, you would barely cover one of our thighs right? None of us want to shift out here. It's almost like we can't."*** ***"How would that work in a fight then? This is so stupid. Just shift, don't make this any more weird. "I'm looking at each one of them and even in their wolf form they look ashamed almost. I put my hands on my hips. "Cam...seriously, just shift, please. We have things to do. I don't know why this is such a big deal."*** His wolf nods his head atand I can see the telltale signs of his body beginning to shift, but it looks more painful than normal and not nearly as fast as when they shifted to their wolves earlier. It's almost like he's fighting himself. Eventually shimmers and his bones stop cracking as his body settles in front of me. Holy f*ck! He's fully clothed, but even bigger than before. And somehow hotter than an hour ago.

His height didn't change, thank the Goddess, but he's filled out more. His clothes look like they are two sizes too small. He went from being an eighteen year old boy, to a man right in front of my eyes. His muscles are more defined spe his jaw is filled out and sharper all at the stime. Everything seems to have matured on him in the span of a shift.

"That shift sucked, what the hell happened?" Cam rubs his face and looks at me. "Why do you seem small again Tiny?"

I'm not smaller, but I don't think I can explain this one. At least you have your clothes, but I don't think they will last if you move around too much." I smile up at him and his inquisitive look. "Just trust me, you'll see when these other boneheads get moving." I look at Dakota and Oliver with my best glare. They start to shift and it looks just as awkward and painful as Cam's.

"I look like I tried to put on slittle kids' clothes." Dakota laughs. "Damn, we look good." He smiles at the other two and starts to flex. I just roll my eyes.

"Your ego didn't need the inflations." I laugh at him.

"I'll show you ego, little mate." He scoopedup so my legs were wrapped around his waist and kisseddeeply. I almost got lost in it and forgot where we were, until someone clears their throat.

"Your feral Gamma found shorts that might actually fit the Alpha males that can't seem to stop growing! | I don't know what happened to you Midge, but for sreason, you're not allowed to grow." She laughs atand we all join in.

"Ah, it's about tthe Alphas showed up. You know it doesn't look very good for your pack's. or your pack's safety if you don't arrive at a threat in a timely manner. People could get seriously hurt due to your lack of initiative and response." "Alpha Brecc, I would hardly call you a threat." I step forward.
