Life continued on. The pups grew stronger. Winter weather continued to keep them indoors. Beth found she was expecting again. Ethan finished the cabinets and began working on some furniture for his room, including a rocking chair. The craftsmanship was exceptional and the others admired his work. Some began asking him for pieces for their rooms. Ethan watched his son, spent time with Anne, and took her to bed three or four times a week. He had also told Callum he wished to stay with the McKenna pack.
Anne's mood lifted. She smiled more and laughed occasionally. She went along with his sexual overtures but didn't initiate anything. Ethan slept in her room at times. And, while he was getting closer to her and his feelings for her grew, he held back from letting her know how he felt, not wanting the finality of her rejection of him. He held his tongue, so as not to force a response from her.
He had thought that she smelled good before, it seemed her scent was still increasing.
The mood in the pack shifted. Spring was approaching. Suddenly, everyone's thoughts were on their mate or a member of the opposite sex. The spa pool was almost constantly occupied now. Couples would disappear and come back flushed and smelling of each other, and sex. Eddy was caught with Jen. Callum looked at Emily but she showed no interest whatsoever in him.
Evan was sleeping through the night now. Ethan planned a more prolonged lovemaking session with Anne. He got some of the berry wine that Wesley had made and lit a couple of candles in his room.
He found her in the hallway. He pulled her close and kissed her, then whispered. "I'd like to show you something." His eyes had darkened as he looked at her, hungrily.
She smiled. "And what might that be?"
"Come, and find out." He took her hand and led her to his room.
He had her sit on the bed and brought her a glass of wine. "Anne. You know I've told Callum that I want to stay." She nodded, now afraid of where this conversation was going to go. "I only want to tell you that I'm happier than I've been in 25 years and it's because of you. Thank you."
He drank. She did, too, relaxing a little more. "And, now, I'd like to make love to you 'til dawn."
He pulled her closer, his hands on her body, his mouth on her throat. He smelled the first spark of her arousal as she ran her hands into his hair, then he groaned as she dragged her nails down his back. His mouth dropped lower and he laid her back down on the bed. Her milk came into his mouth, just a taste, and he bit lightly on her nipple, making her gasp. He raised her arms over her head and whispered, "Stay there."
He looked at her hair, pooled out on the bed behind her. He moved her head to one side, and his throat tightened as he looked at her mating mark. He stroked down her neck, down her arms, her sides. He ran his forefinger between her breasts, down to her brown, curled hairs.
Large, warm hands on her thighs. Palms running up her body. Over her breasts. Up her arms. He sank down on her, kissing her again, down her throat. Taking the mounds of her breasts in both hands, he alternated between them, biting and pulling lightly on one nipple, while flicking at the other with his fingernail. She moaned.
The head of his cock found the folds of her wet pussy and he groaned as he pushed inside those warm, muscled walls. Moving slowly, he began to work in and out of her, twisting his hips occasionally. She sighed and her heart beat faster. He pistoned into her, building her up slowly. Just as she began to pant he pulled out, and she whimpered. He took her by the hips and rolled her over, pulling her up onto her hands and knees. She moaned and growled lightly as he took her hips and plunged in, filling her completely.
She pushed back against him with each thrust as they began to move more quickly. Sweat filmed their bodies as his sack slapped against her. He firmed up further as he reached around to rub her clitoris. "Oh, yes, yes, yes, yes. Oh!"
She sucked in a huge breath as he pulsed inside her and roared as his knot bulged. The spasms from her muscles made him moan as he was drained of his essence. He came down on his hands, stopping himself from crushing her.
He carefully lowered them to the bed, rolling them onto their sides. "Mmmm." He inadvertently brushed over her breast as he put his arm around her and she throbbed around him. "Whoa."
She smiled, chuckled, and he kissed her. "OK, at this rate I won't last til dawn."

The next day, after lunch, Emily caught Anne in the hallway just outside her room. "Anne, can I talk to you about something?"
Beth and Nick were worried about their eldest daughter. At 18, she hadn't mated. Fortunately, she also showed no sign of turning. Callum had had several discussions with them concerning her.
Anne nodded. "Sure, Em."
"Can we talk in my room?"
"Of course." Emily opened the door, letting Anne enter first. She closed the door, leaning against it, as Anne turned around. "So, Emmy, what's on your..."
The question was stopped in her mouth as Emily pulled Anne's mouth to hers and kissed her passionately. Anne stiffened and her eyes widened, as Emily's tongue stroked hers and her hand moved down to Anne's waist.
Emily broke the kiss and sighed into Anne's neck. "Mmm. I've wanted to do that for a couple of years now."
Anne put her arms around the young woman. "Emily, sweetie, you know I don't feel this way about women. Besides, I'm old enough to be your grandmother."
"I know, I know. But you smell so good and I love your hair." Anne stood there, trying to figure out how to get out of this without hurting Em's feelings. "Emmy..."
"No. It's OK. I know this isn't for you. But, I thought I'd see if you'd try it once, like some of the other girls. After all, you aren't mated yet."
"Other girls? Mated? Who said I was getting mated?"
