Chapter 4
: Dinner with the Pack
AVA
At the end of training, I walked back over to where the twins, Leo and Isabella were all waiting for me.
“That was amazing!” Isabella squealed, throwing her arms around me. “Now I see why you were training on your own!”
I grinned in response, “thanks guys.”
“Now I know why dad comes home looking like his ego has been hurt some nights, Ava,” Oscar, one of the Beta’s sons, laughed. Callum, his twin, just nodded in agreement.
“Yeah… I would apologise for that, but I’m not going to.”
“Are you joining us for dinner at the pack house tonight, Ava?” Oscar asked.
I very rarely did, but perhaps now I could? It would just mean I had to get through an evening of comments and questions about how I knocked Beta Alexander on his backside…
“Sure, why not,” I smiled. “I just need to shower and change, so I’ll meet you there in an hour?”
“Sounds like a plan,” Oscar replied, pulling me into a hug. Callum looked jealous, right up until he joined the hug from behind.
The Alpha twins looked left out, but they didn’t attempt to join in, fortunately. It was awkward enough being in between the Beta twins like that, I didn’t need the Alphas getting involved too.
“See you all in a bit,” I smiled, squeezing out from in between the twins and heading towards my house at a sprint.
“Hey mum, hey dad,” I called out as I burst through the door. I was adopted when I was younger, but they were the only parents I could really remember. They were amazing and always had been.
“Hey, sweetie,” my mum replied. “You’re back early, how was training?”
“I’m helping Beta Alexander train the pack now,” I smiled.
“How did the pack take it?”
“They weren’t convinced at first, but then I knocked four of them on their backsides and Beta Alexander too.”
She pulled me into a hug. “I’m proud of you, sweetie.”
“Thanks mum. I’m heading to the pack house for dinner tonight too.”
She nodded, kissing my forehead.
Forty five minutes later, I was ready to head to the pack house for dinner. Evidently Isabella and the twins thought I’d bail, because they were all standing outside my front door waiting for me.
“Ava!” my dad called out. “Kids outside waiting for you.”
“On my way, dad!”
I ran down the stairs, pulled my heeled boots on, and headed straight out the door.
“You came!” Isabella squealed.
“Of course I did, Izzie, I told you I would.”
She grinned, grabbing my hand and pulling me in the direction of the pack house, the boys all following close behind. I could feel eyes on me, and when I spun, it became pretty clear that the Alpha and Beta twins were watching me walk.
My cheeks tinged pink, but rather than letting myself get embarrassed, I wiggled my hips, giggling when their eyes went wide.
Before I could turn back, Noah had bent over and grabbed me around my waist, throwing me over his shoulder, laughing. He ran, with me still laughing over his shoulder, his hand running up and down the back of my legs.
As soon as he wasn’t expecting it, I tickled his ribs, before using his distraction to flip myself over his shoulder, landing perfectly behind him.
“That was a low blow, Ava!” he shouted, before running straight at me.
I laughed, running in the direction of the pack house, somehow faster than Noah even in heels.
When it became clear that Noah wasn’t going to catch me, Theo, Oscar and Callum all joined the chase, sprinting behind me, but they couldn’t catch me either.
It did feel good to laugh with people I could call friends, I didn’t do that often.
By the time we reached the pack house, the twins were still a good ten metres behind me. I’d started slowing down as we got closer, but they still couldn’t catch up.
Beta Alexander was standing on the front steps with a smile, he’d evidently heard the laughing and sound of footsteps coming towards him at speed.
“Hey, Beta.” I laughed as I worked to catch my breath.
“Ava, I’m glad you’re joining us tonight,” he wrapped his arms around me, pulling me into a hug. We turned and walked into the pack house dining room, his arm still around my shoulders.
The room went silent. Most of the wolves here had seen me knock Beta Alexander on his backside during training, and those that didn’t see it had definitely heard about it.
“Ava, good to see you,” Luna Amelia smiled as she stepped towards me, pulling me into a hug. “I heard about Alexander,” she whispered in my ear. “Good on you, he needs knocking down a peg or two.”
“She knocks me on my backside regularly, Luna, this time there was just an audience.”
Luna Amelia laughed again, waving her mate, Alpha Jacob, over to meet us too. “Ava, I’m glad you could join us for dinner tonight.”
“Of course, Alpha. I should really come here more often than I do.”
“Try to get your parents to as well, Ava, we don’t see them enough.”
I nodded as Luna Amelia wound her arm through mine, dragging me over to her table. I glanced behind me to see the Beta, Alpha and then the twins, Leo and Isabella following behind us.
I sat next to Luna Amelia, but before I could get comfy, Theo wrapped his arms around my waist, moving me over a seat so he and Noah could sit on either side of me. Luna, Alpha and Beta all laughed, attempting to cover it with their hands but failing miserably.
“I prefer you in between us, Ava,” Theo whispered in my ear.
“Definitely pressed in between us,” Noah whispered in my other ear.
I blushed, smiling as I turned back to my food.
I jumped when their hands landed on my bare thighs, trying not to squirm when their hands moved up my legs towards my waistband.
I leaned into Theo’s ear, close enough that only he should be able to hear. “Hands to yourself, mister. I’ll have to knock you on your ass otherwise.”
It didn’t work, because Noah then leaned in on my other side. “Promises, promises, Princess,” he whispered back, leaving me shivering when his breath trailed along my neck.
I punched both of their thighs, trying not to laugh too loud when they both winced.
“You okay, Ava? Sounds like the boys are getting handsy” Luna Amelia’s voice came through the pack link.
“Of course, Luna.”
“Good, let me know if you want me to kick the boys’ backsides for you.”
“I’ve got this, Luna. You know I’ll knock them both on their backsides before the end of the night if it comes to it, you might want to be ready with bandages for their bruised egos.”
She laughed so hard she nearly choked on her dinner, the Alpha ending up rubbing her back. I grinned at her around Theo, seeing her wiping her eyes. “Are you okay, Luna?”
“Of course, Ava. I’m just so glad you could join us today.”
The six of us moved into the garden behind the pack house after dinner with beers in hand. The benefit of being a wolf meant our metabolisms were so good that the 18 age limit on alcohol didn’t really apply.
I was laying on the ground, watching the stars when a hot body suddenly appeared on either side of me.
“Boys,” I acknowledged. Theo was on my left, Noah on my right. Apparently they liked being that way around.
I sat up when I heard laughter, noticing that Isabella was sitting on Leo’s lap leaning against a tree. The Beta twins were looking at me longingly, scowling at Noah and Theo on either side of me.
Old, shy me would never have done what I was about to do, but the new confident me wanted to. I waved them both over, motioning for them to sit behind me so I ended up leaning against their chests with the Alpha twins leaning against my legs.
Being in between the four of them was more comfortable than I expected, it almost felt like home. Right up until they started arguing with each other.
“If you four are going to argue, I’m going to knock you all on your backsides and then go home,” I retorted.
“I’d like to see you take all four of us at once, Ava,” Theo whispered in my ear.
I heard laughter behind us; Alpha Jacob, Luna Amelia and Beta Alexander were standing on the steps, watching our interaction.
“Beta Alexander,” I called out. “Did you hear that challenge too?”
“I did indeed, Ava. Tomorrow at training?”
“Sounds like a plan.”
“I want to watch this, Ava,” Alpha Jacob called out.
“I’ll see you there, Alpha, you too if you want to watch, Luna.”
The four boys' faces dropped slightly, I don’t think they were expecting that.
Chapter 5
: An Unexpected Bond
NOAH
How we never truly noticed Ava before is beyond me.
She’s stunning, both inside and out, and she’s unbelievably strong too. She has an air of having been through more than most people our age, and yet coming out stronger.
I’m drawn to her in a way I would never have expected, especially since my 18th birthday is still a couple months away. What is even stranger still is that I know Theo, and even Oscar and Callum feel the same.
All four of us cannot and do not want to keep our hands off her, and that’s just unexpected. Sure, Theo and I have shared girls in the past, and I knew Oscar and Callum had, but all four of us? That just sounded like a problem waiting to happen.
When she challenged the four of us, all of our faces dropped. We all were very aware that if she could take down the Beta, she’d easily take down the four of us. We’d have to try to overwhelm her with numbers, but that would never work either.
She was still smirking as she leaned back against Oscar and Callum’s chests, her back supported on their arms. I trailed one finger up and down her thigh, noticing Theo was doing the same on her other side. I couldn’t help my body responding when she started to squirm, her hips moving between us.
“You might want to stop squirming, Ava,” Oscar whispered in her ear. I turned to look behind me; Ava’s hands were on Oscar and Callum’s thighs, squeezing them as she squirmed.
AVA
I giggled. “Sorry, boys. If you all kept your hands to yourselves, we wouldn’t be in this position.”
“You love it, Ava,” Callum whispered in my ear before pressing his face into my neck, kissing the skin just above my collarbone. I let out a breath I didn’t know I was holding before tilting my head to the side towards Oscar, giving Callum as much access to my neck as he could ever want.
He rubbed his nose along my neck, his brother’s hand rubbing along the bottom of my back.
I looked over when the giggling from Isabella and Leo had stopped; they were watching us intently, a smirk all around Isabella’s face. I grinned at her, before jumping up away from the boys and heading towards her.
“Lake?” Isabella nodded, taking my hand and skipping with me towards the banks. As we left the pack house gardens, I could hear Leo clapping the Alpha and Beta twins on the back, chuckling when they were staring at me in disbelief.
I turned back towards them, blowing them a kiss before running towards the lake with Isabella.
Footsteps behind us told me that at least two of the boys were chasing us. We had hardly any time to react before Leo was scooping Isabella up in his arms, and Callum was throwing me over his shoulder.
At some point they’d both lost their shirts, shoes and jeans, and why became clear when they ran into the lake with us. I screamed when Callum threw me into the lake in front of him, laughing when I surfaced and scowled at him.
He stalked towards me, his face predatory, that dirty smirk still playing around his lips. Callum’s hands appeared at the tops of my thighs as he lifted me, my legs instinctively wrapping around his waist. I pulled my boots off, throwing them back to the shore so they could dry.
I glanced at Isabella, seeing she was doing exactly what I was thinking about. I found the bottom of my dress, pulling that over my head and throwing it towards the shore to dry too.
Callum’s gaze dropped to my chest where it rested against him, his hands exploring my ass around my thong. I could feel he was getting excited, his very hard cock ending up pressed against my stomach.
I turned when I heard splashing behind me, noticing Oscar moving through the water towards us having also lost his clothes.
He wrapped his hands around my waist, fingers dancing across my stomach and up towards the underneath of my bra.
“Tease,” he growled in my ear, his hips thrusting against my ass with the movement of the water. My giggles turned to a moan and I let my head fall back on his shoulder when his hands cupped my breasts, gently squeezing through the thin fabric of my bra.
“Say you want us to stop, Ava,” Callum’s voice was low, gravelly as he spoke.
“I don’t want you to stop,” I replied, my own voice breathy.
“Good,” Oscar replied, his lips against my ear. I whimpered when he bit the lobe, a jolt of pleasure running through me.
At that sound, the boys moved, getting into their favoured positions. One of Oscar’s hands moved under my chin, tilting my face up towards his so he could capture my lips in a kiss. I ran my tongue across his bottom lip when I took control of the kiss, deepening it. As if he realised he didn’t want to let me have control, the hand that was on my neck wound into my hair, and he used his grip to tilt my head exactly how he wanted it.
When I moaned against Oscar’s mouth, Callum’s hands started to move. He held me against him with one hand under my ass as his other started teasing up the inside of my leg. He leaned over me, his mouth pressing gentle kisses against my neck whilst his brother ravaged my mouth.
I jumped when Callum’s fingers teased across my core through the lace of my underwear, and squirmed when he moved my underwear to the side, giving him access to my opening. His fingers teased through my lips, drawing circles around my clit, my hips pushing against him in a silent cry for more.
He chuckled against my neck, his teeth grazing against the sensitive skin when he pushed one finger inside me. My back arched when a second finger joined his first, and I couldn’t help but break the kiss with Oscar, moans falling from my mouth as Callum’s fingers moved inside me.
Oscar’s hand landed across my mouth, muffling my moans when Callum’s fingers curled, reaching that sensitive spot that would drive me to orgasm explosively.
Callum’s mouth suddenly appeared at my breast, and I cried out as my walls clenched around his fingers when his teeth sunk into the exposed flesh.
“Fuck,” I whimpered under my breath as I came back down from my orgasm.
The boys both chuckled, their hands moving across my body, teasing. “You came so prettily, Ava,” Oscar whispered. “I knew you would.”
“After that orgasm, it’s a shame I’ve got to knock you both on your backsides tomorrow, but unfortunately for you both, you deserve it.”
“If you can knock us on our backsides, Ava,” Oscar whispered behind me.
“Oh I definitely can,” I smirked, before my attention was stolen by Callum’s mouth on my neck.
“I want to be inside you more than anything, Ava,” he growled against my skin. “But not here, not like this.”
He looked at Oscar like he wanted to ask something else, but didn’t quite get that far. “We wouldn’t be your first, would we?” Oscar whispered in my ear, voice concerned.
I shook my head, reaching one hand behind me and the other in front to wrap around their cocks. I teased them both for a minute, before kissing them both on the cheek, jumping out of their arms and swimming back to the shore towards the very jealous looking Alpha twins.
I grinned at them both when I reached where I’d left my dress, which typically still wasn’t dry. Before I could react, Noah had pulled his t-shirt over my head and thrown it to me.
I pulled it on gratefully, noticing how delicious it smelled. The four boys really did smell amazing.
When I bent down to pick my shoes up, the Alpha twins surrounded me. “That was quite a show you gave us, Ava,” Noah growled in my ear. “I wish it had been me to have you squirming first.”
“Next time,” I smirked up at him, watching his eyes glaze over slightly.
“It’s fine, now everyone knows you’re mine because you smell like me,” he leaned down, pressing a kiss against my lips.

AVA
I got suspicious looks from my parents when I got home, but I guess that’s to be expected when your daughter rocks up late at night with her own clothes bundled under her arm just wearing a t-shirt that smells of one of the Alpha heirs.
I did explain that we’d been to the lake after dinner and I’d just gotten wet, but they definitely didn’t believe that was all that happened.
Fortunately, they just let me head to bed without asking awkward questions.
Once I’d showered and changed, I flopped down in bed with a giggle as I thought about the night’s events, before my thoughts were disrupted by the sound of my phone pinging with the creation of a group chat with all four of the boys.
The Five
Callum: I had a great time tonight, little one, and I know you did too.
Oscar: I’m going to go to sleep thinking about how you feel in my arms.
Noah: I hope you’re still wearing my t-shirt, Princess.
Ava: Of course, I put it back on after my shower and everything. My parents did look at me funny when I turned up smelling of you though, Noah.
Theo: Thanks for the visual of you in the shower, now I’m never going to sleep.
Ava: Goodnight, boys, don’t stay up too late dreaming of me.
Callum: No promises there, little one.
By the time morning came, I’d hardly slept either, my thoughts constantly interrupted by the four of them. And I’d agreed to spar with the four of them in training. I slept for three hours. I just had to hope they hadn’t fared much better.
The Five
Ava: Good morning, boys. I hope you slept well and are ready for me to knock you on your asses later.
Noah: As long as you end up on top of me, you can knock me on my ass whenever you want, Princess.
I chuckled at Noah’s response. Absolutely shameless.
Ava: I’m going for a run, I’ll see you all at school.
Callum: I’m counting down the minutes, little one.
Beta Alexander was already at the training ground again when I got there. “Ava, good morning!”
“Morning Beta,” I yawned.
“Did you not sleep very well, Ava? Does this have something to do with my sons?”
I chuckled, trying not to cough. “I’m not sure you want me to answer that question, Beta.”
He smirked. “You’re probably right, Ava. They might be my sons, but if they hurt you, I’ll kick their asses for you.”
“Thanks, Beta,” I smiled. “Luna promised the same thing if her sons hurt me.”
“Running with me again today, Ava?”
“If you’re game, Beta.”
We raced through the woods in our wolf forms until it was time for me to grab breakfast and head to school.
The school day dragged, only interrupted by brief moments of elation when I saw one of the boys. I was exhausted, but it looked like the boys were even more tired than I was. Fingers crossed I could actually knock them all down…
And guess what? I did.
“Jeez, Ava,” Noah winced. “I think you’ve broken my shin.”
“It’s just bruised,” I laughed. “You’ll be fine.”
The surrounding pack members all laughed at my interaction with the four boys after they were all on their feet again.
Before I could grab a bottle of water, I was cornered by the Alpha and Luna. “That was amazing, Ava!” Luna Amelia exclaimed. “Our sons definitely needed taking down a peg or two.”
“Mine did too, Ava!” Beta Alexander shouted across the field.
Before I could respond, I was surrounded by the four of them; trapped in between four muscled but very sweaty bodies.
“You might have taken us all out, Princess,” Noah whispered in my ear, his hands running through my hair. “But I still need you.”
I smirked up at him, gasping when he bent down, pressing his lips to mine.
“Oi, boys!” Beta Alexander shouted out across the field. “Put my assistant trainer down, we’ve got stuff to do.”
“Sorry, dad,” Oscar and Callum mumbled.
Next, Beta Alexander had me take down five trained warriors at once to demonstrate how best to deal with multiple attackers. I was sluggish from lack of sleep, but on the plus side, I still managed it. It just meant the warriors landed a couple hits more than they normally would have done.
I wiped the blood away from my nose once the spar was done with, grimacing at the feel of a broken nose healing. Thankfully, Artemis meant I could heal anything pretty quickly these days.
“Good job today, Ava,” Beta Alexander pulled me into a hug as he spoke. I smiled back at him, rubbing my arm where the bruises were healing.
Isabella skipped across the field towards me, flinging her sweaty arms around my neck. Leo was just behind her, and the twins were bringing up the rear. “You’re amazing!” She held my face, tilting it back and forth, her brows furrowed in confusion. “You’ve already healed?”
I nodded. “I heal very quickly.”
Once Isabella stepped back, Leo pulled me into a hug. A hug that drew growls from the twins behind him. “I have never had more fun at training than I did tonight watching you put these four on their asses, Ava,” he chuckled. “Now I’m going to run away before one of them kicks my backside for touching you.”
Theo pulled me into his arms, checking me over for wounds too. “I’m fine, Theo, honest,” I protested. “I’m just tired and I was a little sluggish.”
All four of the boys were suddenly smirking at me. “I hope that wasn’t our fault, little one,” Callum chuckled.
“You know fully well it was,” I retorted. “Thanks to you four, I had a broken nose, again.”
Their faces dropped, Theo inspecting my face more closely. “Are you okay? Do you want us to take you to the hospital?”
I chuckled. “I’m fine, Theo. I heal very well, it’s already healed.”
“Wait, again?” Oscar asked, his face a picture.
I rolled my eyes. “Yup. I train hard, I’ve had a lot of injuries.”
Beta Alexander came to stand behind me, his arm around my shoulders again. “Me too,” he chuckled. “Of the last five times I’ve come home with a broken nose, our little spitfire here probably caused four of them.”
