“Of course, I’m an open book.” That has me spraying lemonade out of my nose.

“Double entendra intended?” I ask as I wipe my face.

“Of course.” She says smiling.

“So, how does it work? I can’t imagine it. I don’t mean to be rude and if my questions are too intrusive, please just tell me. But I’m really curious.” Hana says to her.

“The difference is that they are your mates. It wasn’t like this when Bradley was alive. But, once I lost him, I wanted comfort, companionship. I found it in the arms of the pack members who were thrilled to have an intimate relationship with a she-wolf, some of them having never experienced any type of s*e*xual interaction with a woman.”

She looks out over the mountains. “Then, it just slowly happened over time. I was curious about different things and the pack was willing to try anything that I wanted. Now, I can take three easily, four on a good night and five on a really good night.”

Our numbers, like yours here, were dwindling. My family got out, bringing us here, thinking it would be better for us.” Her eyes turn sad. “Our boat capsized during the journey. It was a human boat, and my family were the only werewolves on the ship. I was the only survivor. I swam until I reached land, found a forest where I spent many cold nights, practically starving until Jonas’s father found me. He took me in,
