The Council by Cooper (Jara & Mason)

“Can I ask you a question?” Hana says, sitting up and turning so she can give her full attention to
Isabe.

“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.
“And, honestly, how in the world do you have the energy? Mason keeps me so busy that I can’t imagine
having time for anyone else, not that he’d allow it.” I add.
“The difference is that they are your mates. It wasn’t like this when Bradley was alive. But, once I lost
him, I wantedfort,panionship. I found it in the arms of the pack members who were thrilled to
have an intimate rtionship 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.”
I feel like my mouth just hit the floor. “Five? Where do you put them all?” I ask.
“Our bodies have three orifices, pleasure centers I call them, and I have two hands.” She says, wiggling
her fingers.
“All at one time?” Hana asks, her eyes wide, not being at all subtle in her amazement.
“Not at first. I worked up to it. Jonas and Jared were my first thr*esome, and if I’m honest, they are still
my favorites. There’s something to be said about having two Alpha males at once, especially when
they’re half your age.” She says smugly. Hana and I look at each other and burst into giggles. I still
can’t imagine it. But maybe it’s because of the bond I share with Mason. I wouldn’t want to share our
time with anyone else. And I can’t imagine that he’d ever be willing to share me with anyone. He’s
already so possessive.
“As I said, it’s different when you share a bond with your mate. And your bonds already seem much
stronger than the one I shared with my mate. So, maybe it would never be something that you’d
consider.”
In the distance I can see the long hair of two girlsing our way, one taller than the other.
“Maybe when Katerina joins us, we can talk about your ns to change the iming this year. Based
on the changes that I’ve seen already, four imants pregnant within a month of the end of the
iming, I would like for her to have something simr to what you two seem to have with your mates.”
“You wouldn’t want her to be in the same type of situation you are in?” I ask, genuinely surprised.
“If she could find a man that steals her heart and takes her breath away, that’s what I would want for
my daughter.” She says as Katerina and Sophia, her younger daughter, join us.
Isabe stands, walking to her girls and hugging them. They hug her, but their eyes are glued to us.
“Girls, this is Luna Jara and Luna Hana. They are visiting for the night. They’vee to see our pack. I
thought we could take them on a tour. Would you like to join us?”
“It’s nice to meet you both.” Katerina says before looking at her mother. “Yes, I’d like to go.”
Sophia is probably around 15 years old. “Mom, Carl said he’d take me on a run. Is it okay if I go with
him?”
“Be back by dinner time. I don’t want to have to send out half the pack like I didst time. Understand?”
“Thanks mom. Nice meeting you both! I’ll see you at dinner.” She says before running off, shifting mid-
step. A momentter another wolf races up beside her and they take off into the mountains.
“So, you do have ranked blood in your blood line?” I ask. It’s not easy to shift mid run like Sophia did.
Being young, I’d say they have Alpha or Beta blood. “Ie from a royal Alpha line in Europe. 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 reachednd, found
a forest where I spent many cold nights, practically starving until Jonas’s father found me. He took me
in, and the rest is history.”
I already feel a kinship to this woman, I liked her immediately and I think we can be great friends. I’m
not sure if it’s that, or the pregnancy hormones, but I pull her into a hug and almost instantly feel
Hana’s arms around us too.
“I’m so sorry you had to go through that.” I say, tearfully.
“It’s true what they say. That which does not kill you, makes you stronger. I am here and I am happy.”
She says.
“What’s going on?” Alpha Jonas asks, his voice full of concern, walking toward us with a worried look
on his face. Immediately, he steps up to Isabe and pulls her to him, wiping the tears off her face.
“Oh, I was just telling my new friends about how I ended up here.”
“Issy.” He says softly, pulling her into his chest and kissing the top of her head. I may not understand
the situation here, but there is real love between this pack and their she-wolves. And Isabe is happy
here. It may not be my choice, but who am I to judge the lifestyle that she’s chosen for herself. It seems
to be working for her and her pack.
Isabe gets Laney, the other she-wolf in the pack, and Katerina and the three of them take us around
the packnds, showing us the beauty of thend. Laney and her mate have two children, a young
she-wolf, and an older son.
As we walk, I can tell Katerina wants to talk, but she hasn’t decided to open up yet.
When we get back to the packhouse, I turn to her. “What’s on your mind?” She looks at her mother
before looking back at me, considering her question. “You’re pregnant?”
“We both are.” I say, as Hanaes to stand beside me. “Your happy with your mates?” She asks.
“Yes, we love them, and they love us.” Hana says.
“I have nothing against my mother’s way of life. You know that.” She says looking at her mother.
“I do.” Isabe says.
“But I want what you seem to have.” She says, turning back to me and Hana.
“Perhaps we can dine out here, the four of us, and maybe Jonas and Jared as well. I think it would be
good for them to hear about the changes you are nning to make and then we can all ask you our
questions in the peacefulness of the veranda.” Isabe suggests.
We all agree and have a wonderful evening, eating, talking andughing. Ie to realize that Jonas’s
hesitation in joining our alliance had more to do with their unique arrangement. He was worried that we
would judge Isabe and try to remove her from their pack, which couldn’t be farther from the truth.
Something else I realized as I looked around, this arrangement, or maybe it’s Isabe herself, but
either way, she’s keeping the feral-fever away from her pack just like we are. I don’t see any signs of it
within this pack, even with the men in their thirties.
The next morning, I hug Isabe tightly before we leave. “I want to know that you are safe this
weekend. When you get out of Alpha Shawn’s territory, I want to hear from either you or Alpha Jonas.”
“I will. And I hope we can get together soon.” She says to me. “Well, Isabe, you’re one of the very
few females in our packs that know about childbirth. I expect that I’ll be seeing more of you very soon.”
I say, rubbing my baby bump.
“Oh, and my mother-inw is going to LOVE you.” Hana adds, hugging Isabe tightly.
I turn to Katerina. “You are wee to join our calls,e visit our packs or anything else that may
help you feel morefortable going into the iming next year.” I tell her.
“I’d like to visit Layan.” She says.
I look at Isabe. Visiting Layan may terrify her.

“My daughter is a strong woman. If she wants to visit Layan, then I won’t stand in her way.” Isabe
says.
I look at Katerina. “I’ll talk to her. Ultimately, it’s her decision.” She nods and we say our goodbyes. As
we leave the territory, I realize that I didn’t know what to expect when we arrived, but I’m leaving with a
strong bond to Isabe and her pack.
