Doreen

“But, but, how? That can’t be right! How can a bear and a tiger be mates?” I asked her with strong disbelief written on my face. “Well, I’m not exactly a bear am I? I’m just a supernatural, a vessel to be able to carry cubs… or whelps I suppose… Oh what the hell! What am I going to do!” She yelled and scrunched up her hair in frustration.

I had a million questions to ask her, but none of them were appropriate to ask her right now! At least not the ones about procreation between two, non-compatible creatures… But like she said, she isn’t a bear and I just stepped into this realm of shifters, so who am I to tell what is right and what isn’t?

But I have to be the strong person for her now, she could have gone to Bertha or her brother for this, but she chose me instead.

“Is he strong?” I asked her and I could have slapped my face for that question. ‘Is he strong?’ was that the best I could come up with? Shit! But Vic’s head snapped up and a wide smile appeared onto her face. I guess that my stupid question had been enough of a stimulation to get her to talk.

“Oh yes, incredibly, he can lift more than I can, and oh I have seen him shift too, his lean body is incredible!” She said. “And you should see his fur! I mean, the orange is so bright, and the black is so intriguing and dominant, woosh!” She continued to rant on while getting a blush on her cheek, which made me smile.

“So, what is the problem then?” I asked her, still wondering about the connectivity between a tiger and a bear, but I’m not going to break this love-spell that she is under now, while asking her incoherent questions.

“I have to tell Jack!” She yelled. “And?...” I asked her to continue. “And he will never approve of it! Me and a tiger! How could he be alright with it, it’s just unheard of! I mean, it has happened before in shifter’s history, but it is just really strange and very rare!” She continued. “And not to mention that I have to live here! With all these sex-crazed-cats everywhere!” She said and let her head slump down in her hands again.

“Well, I don’t know about that, other than I’d like to go loud and rough with your brother, and that is not something I would have imagined to enjoy either. So, maybe you will eventually enjoy having sex everywhere at any time of the day as well.” I raised my shoulders, letting her think about my thoughts.

“Really? Could you really think that I can change, that much?” She asked me, with furrowed brows. “Uhm, yes, love does some incredible things to us. Besides, you have to let me handle Jack, I’m going to be Queen, so I have to be able to at least handle my own mate.” I continued and now she only raised one brow.

“Hm, I’m not sure about that, you have to be able to shift into a bear, before you can take up that title. Maybe you should start a dating-consultancy-company, instead of becoming the Queen!” She said and I laughed at her. “Well, I might have to, if not even anger can make me shift…” I said when I sighed deeply.

“Oh, but not anger is going to help you, you have to think of something entirely different. Anger is a rough emotion, it is something that never does anything good.” She said. “But why did you get me all riled up and angry towards you then?!” I yelled to her. “Because I needed you alone for a second and men don’t understand a woman’s mind. I just said all those things to trick him, to get him away from us.” She continued and I said an ‘oh’ in understanding her motives now.

“So, what do you think will get me to shift then?” I asked her. “That’s easy.” She said.

Jack

It has been another hour since I had walked away from Doreen and Vic, and I was starting to worry that Doreen might never get to shift at all. But when I walked back to the forest again, a bright glowing brown bear walked out and I couldn’t be more proud to see her like this again.

Vic had managed to get her to shift, and I was really happy.

I walked over towards them both, knowing that Vic must have explained to Doreen why I had acted the way I had. With my arms open I wanted her to walk towards me, heavily urging her to let me embrace her in a hug. “I’m so proud of you!” I chimed as I expected her to do as I had thought. But instead she walked pass me, ignoring my reaching hands! Vic also kept on walking, not daring to say a word to me. “Doreen? Is everything alright?” I asked her.

“Get out of my sight.” She linked me. Fuck! She is angry at me, for not defending her for Vic’s angry words! But why is she walking together with Vic then? Isn’t she angry at her as well?

“Doreen, please, you know that I never meant those words, right? It was only to make you able to shift, that’s all!” I pleaded with her, as Vic held a large towel in front of her shiny golden body, for her to be able to shift back but be covered while doing so. “By the way, it was Vic’s idea in the first place!” I continued, when I heard Doreen’s body contort and snap back into its former shape.

“Yeah, but you are her mate, you should have defended her!” Vic now said and my jaw dropped. “What? You wanted me to act like that!” I shouted to her. “Nope, never said that you should. But I fixed your prized possession while you couldn’t, so shut your tone with me, brother!” She snapped and I growled heavily.

“Oh, knock it off you two!” Doreen said as she stood up after her shift. “But Vic is right! I needed you more than anything, especially for this, so don’t you dare pin this on your sister!” She continued and I just growled in frustration!

Women! Really, who understands them!?

“The things we do for love.” Bertha said when she suddenly stood behind me, and it made me feel like I was having a déjà vu. “Haven’t you said that before?” I asked her, when I snapped my head around, to see where she stood. “Yep, but I’m right and you know it.” She said and I growled even louder.

“Yes, and you will have to deal with her tantrums more, now that she has fully committed to her new life.” Giselle chimed in as well and now I was at my peak.

“Is every fucking woman against me now!? What the hell is going on!?” And all of the four women around me started to laugh frantically. They walked towards each other and together went into the pack house again. What have I done, when I though to bring all these women here together? I need some male support here, because I can’t deal with them any longer!

“All I can do, is offer you some tequila.” Maxwell chuckled and handed me the bottle. “Thanks, but how am I going to amend myself for this?” I asked him, but all he did was shrug his shoulders, telling me that he didn’t know either, that they will probably come around eventually.

“It doesn’t work like that and you know it!” Misty now said. “See, even your female is getting riled up about it. Please Misty, could you talk to Doreen? See what I can do for her?” I asked her.

“Oh, I’ll talk to her, but that is because I like her, not because I’m going to help you. That’s your own business!” She scolded and walked away from me and Maxwell.

“I give up, even your woman is angry at me now!” I said and Maxwell laughed even louder, so I took a big gulp of tequila to quench my frustration.

Doreen

Bertha, Vic, Giselle and I were laughing out loud now. I was having the time of my life, while pretending to be angry towards Jack. Serves him right! He should have prevented Vic from acting like that, even though it was all an actual act from her side.

“Doreen, so you know, I’m going to leave right after the big meeting.” Giselle suddenly said and it saddened me a little. I have spent a lot of time with her, talking about my nightmares and I was beginning to get really attached to her.

“I know that you have to go eventually, but so soon?” I asked her and she nodded.

“But there are still a few more days, so I’m not gone yet.” She said and I smiled.

Misty came walking in our direction and joined in on the conversation that we had. “I’m sorry to hear that you have to leave soon, Giselle, your potions have worked big time.” She winked towards her and I frowned upon that gesture. “I’m sure they did, love, how are you feeling?” Giselle asked her and I started to wonder what they were talking about.

“I’m feeling wonderful! My cubs will be born all healthy and strong, as I don’t have to throw up every bite that I put in my mouth now.” Misty replied and we all gasped! “Congratulations!” We all shouted and started to hug her fiercely and she thanked us all.

“What about you?” She suddenly asked Vic, and I looked at her with surprise. Vic wasn’t pregnant too, right? “I mean, the name Thor isn’t only applying to his big strong shoulders, if you know what I mean!” Misty chuckled and made Vic’s cheeks shine bright like a fresh red apple.

“No! We haven’t done anything yet! All we know is that we are mates!” Vic whispered and we all softly smiled at her for her shyness.

“Oh, but we can’t have that, can we?” Misty laughed teasingly, before suddenly one hell of a massive man came walking in!

Jack was broadly build at every spot on his body, but this man had done his work-out as well! Damn, he looked fine! He was tall, had broad shoulders, a slim waist, long legs and those caffs… oomph! If it weren’t for having my own mate, I might have drooled all over him!

“Yes my Tigress, do you need any assistance?” Thor asked Misty, while glancing towards Vic with a wide grin on his face. “Oh, just one thing.” Misty said. “Anything, please tell me what I can do.” He replied while still looking huskily towards Vic and I could tell that she wanted to bury herself alive!

“One of our esteemed guests here, is in need of a thorough massage. And when I say ‘thorough’ I mean that she needs a rub in all the right places!” Misty said unflinchingly and now I blushed red, and it wasn’t even meant for me!

“Help me!” Vic mouthed to me and I chuckled. “Just embrace your inner peace, just like you have taught me earlier today!” I said to her and an angry look appeared on her face, angry towards me as I was using her own words against her now.

“Yes, my Tigress.” Thor answered and picked his mate up with ease, while she was embarrassed to the top!

I smiled at Vic, knowing that she was going to face a great time tonight. But I also smiled towards myself, as I had indeed been able to shift, when she had said those words to me.

Of course, Vic’s words hadn’t literally been the actual thing that had made me shift, but she made me think about all the things that has happened between me and Jack, all the pain and stress that we had been through, but also all the love that we have shared. I know that I won’t ever leave Jack and I know that he won’t ever leave me either. He even has said that he was going to stand by my side as my King, while he knew that I was supposed to be the leading figure on this whole charade.

So, I had embraced all that was in between me and him, the bond that was created to bind us together forever. And in that same picture I couldn’t pretend to see that my bear wasn’t a part in all of it. It was, my bear is a part of me, and it will become a big part in the rest of our lives. So, in the end it had only cost me a few minutes, to be able to shift into my bear again, but then I wanted to do it several times over to make sure that I was fully in control.

And between those shifts we had come up with the idea to shit around with Jack, because it was so fun to see him squirm in frustration! Oh, I like being a tiny woman with so much power now! I chuckled to myself and Bertha and Giselle looked at me in wonder.

“The things we do for love, right?” Bertha said towards Giselle and she chuckled. “Yep, the things we do for love.” Giselle repeated the words and we all smiled.
