Free Christmas for the Wolves & a Wolf for Valentine's Day (Grey Wolf Pack) by E A Price Page B

breakfast with your family. After all, there’ll be plenty of time later .”
    Don groaned as his snickering mate led him downstairs.

    Kayleigh looked between Don’s brothers. There was a family resemblance between all three of them. But while Don was in fantastic shape and still had thick dark hair, distinguished by a dab of grey at his temples, which Kayleigh would not change for anything , the two older brothers were not quite so well preserved. It was a little hard to believe that the age difference between the three brothers was so small. Don was 40, Rick was 42 and Evan was 44.
    Rick had a terrific paunch, hanging over his straining belt and jeans. Not an easy feat for shifters whose natural metabolisms meant that they could eat a lot and stay thin - Kayleigh always envied that . And his hair had completely turned grey. Evan, on the other, hand was still quite buff; he was quite a bit bulkier than Don, not surprising given that he was an Alpha. But while Don kept it tight, boy did he!, Evan’s muscles were kind of fleshy. Not to mention Evan’s comb over... Ugh!
    Don had told her that his brothers had been pretty promiscuous back in the day; they’d worked their way through nearly every girl in school, including a few of the teachers. She was glad Don hadn’t been like that... or so he said .
    He’d told her girls always preferred his brothers to him. She was half pleased and half irritated by that. Glad, because the thought of Don being with anyone else had her seething with jealousy, but irritated at the stupidity of the women of Charming. Don was a walking wet dream, those women were idiots!
    Although, she wasn’t that surprised that girls had gone wild for his brothers twenty years ago. As an Alpha and Beta, women, particularly wolf shifters, would have gravitated to their natural power.
    She’d seen a couple of photos of the three of them when they were young, and, personally, she couldn’t see the attraction. The older brothers looked like they were steroidal wrestlers, with flattened noses and small piggy eyes. Don looked like he’d been carved by Rodin. Seriously, no contest! But then she might be just a tad biased...
    Kayleigh couldn’t see that they had ever been more attractive than Don. Damn she was lucky; she’d snagged the hot brother! Don left the table to find her some chamomile tea. He was such a treasure! She bristled to see that the brothers’ wives were also being very appreciative of her man as he walked away, his ass really was gorgeous . Well they could look, but if they dared to try and touch...
    The wives in question were still attractive. Shifters generally aged very well, again another thing that annoyed and incited envy in Kayleigh . They were both in their early forties, but the only giveaway to their ages was the worry lines on their faces. From his last brief visit, Don gleaned that neither couple was overly happy in their mating. Apparently they were arranged matings to cement fuzzy feelings between rival packs. It appeared the arrangements had led to a few resentments...
    The two women were very trim in their matching tracksuits; they were about Kayleigh’s height, but they were a lot skinnier and toned than she was. The women sneered a little at Kayleigh, but she didn’t care, Don loved her curves and, more importantly, so did she. She’d tell the women to go suck on a pair of lemons, but judging by their matching sour expressions, she guessed it was too late.
    Evan leered at Kayleigh’s breasts. Apparently he didn’t mind curves either . There was a loud thump and then Evan snapped his head to his wife, Jodie, who was starring daggers at him. She’d kicked him under the table.
    Evan cleared his throat. “So, Kayleigh, how old are you?”
    Jodie shook her head and sniggered. “I apologize for my husband,” she said imperiously. “It’s just that you’re so... so young... it’s kind of a surprise.”
    Kayleigh arched an eyebrow. “It’s okay. I have a very
