“What?” Noah blinked before looking up at the sign about the door: Victoria’s Secret. A deep blush colored his cheeks and he looked to see the other warriors snickering. “Hey, turn around. Backs to the store!”
“Here, we are! Ooo this one’s good. How about it, Phoebe?” Lucille asked holding up a red negligee.
Phoebe’s cheeks turned the same color as the lingerie
“Or not?”
“I c-can’t wear that!” Phoebe shook her head. She turned to see Bridget holding up a black teddy with a thoughtful expression. “Bridget?”
“I just thought it might be fun.”
“That’s the attitude,” Lucille insisted. “Sometimes you need to spice it up.”
Phoebe’s blush persisted.
“Look, you don’t need to tell me what you and my brother do behind closed doors. I sooo don’t need to know that. But at what stage are you with him? You have kissed, right?”
Phoebe nodded.
“Nibbling? A little heavy petting, maybe?”
Phoebe hid her face.
“Fair enough. Well, my advice, trust your instincts.”
“My instincts?”
“Yeah. We have incredible s*x drives but it’s tempered by our wolves’ desire for their mates: or should be. As much as they complain if we decide to indulge I don’t know of anyone more obsessed with s*xual pleasure than my wolf so pay attention to yours.”
Phoebe didn’t answer but it was food for thought. Máni had been getting more active since they found their second chance mate and making all sorts of suggestions she wouldn’t dare repeat.
“Now let’s find something that will give my brother a heart attack.”

Jason stared at the paperwork in front of him not really seeing it. He had patrolled the area of the breach, checked the territorial markings and conferred with the patrols.
Satisfied with the counter measures Ben implemented he returned to his office to review any pending requests but his mind kept drifting back to Phoebe.
“Earth to Jason? Hey! Jace!”
Jason snapped to attention glancing at Luke who had been at his side catching up, “Sorry.”
“Nah, it’s fine,” Luke sat in one of the chairs across from him. “It’s to be expected. I took two weeks off after I met Mona, remember?”
Jason nodded. It was bad enough he already missed several weeks due to the security tour, not that he was complaining about the results, but he couldn’t afford to fall behind in his paperwork anymore no matter how much he wanted to curl up in bed with Phoebe and stay there.
Lobo whined agreement.
“Well that was fun,” Ben announced as he entered without knocking. He joined them slumping in the other chair. “Lucy was in fine form.”
“She does like to shop,” Luke chuckled.
Mona had declined the offer to join them preferring to stay busy with her own work. Prior to joining Blue Moon she had gone to school for psychology and was currently leading a study on rogues, why they went feral and what motivated them to attack. Given the rise in attacks it was important work to be sure.
“I think they got everything though. Your mother found Phoebe’s Luna dress and wouldn’t let anyone else near it.
Lucy decided at the last minute to peruse Victoria’s Secret.
Don’t know what they bought but they all came out with a couple bags each.”
“Really?” Jason raised an eyebrow.
Luke chuckled at Jason’s piqued interest. He had to admit any time Mona brought home such bags he was eager for her reveal what she bought after dinner.
“There you are!” Lucille entered without knocking. She sat in Ben’s lap and smiled at her brother who warily eyed her.
“This is my office, not a lounge.”
“Yes sir, Mister Big Tuff Alpha,” Lucille rolled her eyes. “I just thought you’d like to know your Luna is back safe and sound and as innocent as ever despite my attempts to
corrupt her.”
Jason growled
“Oh would you relax!” Lucille laughed. “I’m happy for you Jace! Phoebe is wonderful! She’s kind, smart, charming and has a wicked sense of humor. You should have seen her with the pups today. It was so sweet. It took them all of two seconds to call her mommy.”
Jason’s eyes which had been swirling amber darkened as he smiled at the image of Phoebe with the pups.
“Well it’s to be expected. She’s been taking care of those pups for a couple years now. Blake’s old enough to have some memories of their parents but I doubt Emma has any,
” Luke said.
“So why didn’t Phoebe adopt them before now?” Lucille asked. “During the whole shopping trip she was concerned about money. If she adopted the pups her old pack would have offered assistance in raising them.”
“She tried. Rimrock’s alpha denied her application,” Luke said.
“Why would he do that?” Lucille scoffed.
Luke glanced as Jason before answering, “Well, actually Rimrock’s alpha was her first mate.”
“The one who rejected her?” Lucille asked earning another growl from Jason.
