Hot Summer Love: A Multi-Author Box Set (Shifters in Love Book 2)

“But Todd, the tour guide told us they kept the bunker fully supplied in case of an emergency for thirty years! Then they declassified the place after it was exposed. What a waste of tax dollars. They never used it! It doesn’t add up.”


“But Beverly, what if they had needed to use the facility? You have to look at both sides of the picture here. Sure, the government covers things up, but they try to do it in the people’s best interest. And yeah, maybe they covered up some aliens. But do you blame them?” Todd cleared his throat. “How would you feel if you knew there were a bunch of aliens running around out there—possibly abducting people?”

I grimaced as Todd continued. “So, maybe they are trying to cover up that werewolves actually exist, but … let’s face it. You can’t blame them for being nervous about letting the American public know about us. I mean, how would you feel about us if you weren’t a werewolf yourself?”

“Hmm, I guess if I was still a ‘regular’ woman and not a werewoman … I guess I would be pretty upset knowing there was such a thing as werewolves.”

Todd nodded, “And what if you found out werewolves were being assimilated into the population?”

“Well, maybe I would not like it very much.”

“Try not to get all fired up about something before you think it through,” Todd said gently.

I squinted, furrowing my forehead. “Are you trying to tell me what to do, Todd Becker?”

Todd laughed, waving his hand, that sexy, dimpled grin reappearing. “Relax, Bev. You act like you’ve got the weight of the world on your shoulders.”

“Yeah Todd, but I just know that when people finally find out werewolves are real it’s going to be a lot harder for us then. If the government had just fessed up and educated people, maybe we would have a chance!”

Dave put his arm around me. “Hey girlie, you should include Sasquatch in your report. There have been plenty of sightings and the gov won’t fess up.”

“Sasquatch?”

“Yeah, everyone knows Sasquatch—that’s Big Foot.” Todd said.

“Oh yeah, Big Foot—that huge, hairy beast. What a load of bull crap!” I shouted. “Who could believe some ginormous monster is lurking around in the forest?”

“Come on, Bev. You can’t believe in Big Foot, but you know werewolves exist?” Todd questioned, his face puzzled.

“I got me a super big foot,” Dave leered. “Hey babes, it’s bedtime.” He grabbed me by the hand. ”It’s time to take my sexy bitch to bed.”

“Geez, Dave.” I was annoyed that Dave would be so obvious in front of Todd, especially after he’d walked in on us. I was trying to put that incident behind me.

I glanced over at Todd. He was staring at me, and once again the sheer desire on his face was palpable. As I caught his eyes, he looked away, but it was too late. I knew he wanted me … and I knew I wanted him too.

“Come on, Bev. Let’s hit the sack,” Dave said. He pulled me off the couch and guided me towards the bedroom.

Just as I was feeling ashamed about leaving Todd that way, Dave added something that shocked the hell out of me.

“Care to join us, Todd?”

I couldn’t believe what Dave had just said. Did he really ask Todd if he wanted to join us in the bedroom?

“That is, if Beverly likes the idea…?” Dave asked, giving me a hopeful, questioning look.

“Wh... What? Do you mean the three of us … in the bedroom together?” I could hardly sputter the words out as I looked at Dave in shock. I could feel my face flushing. Was he suggesting what I thought he was—that he wanted to share me with Todd? On the one hand, it was tremendously exciting, but on the other, I was not sure I liked the idea that Dave was willing to share me. Plus—two men at one time? I wasn’t sure how to react.

“Yeah, that’s what I mean Bev. My parents are in a very loving threesome, my mother and two fathers. They’ve been together many years and are very happy living with one another.”

Dave had mentioned he wanted me to meet his folks, but I’d never even considered the idea that there were three of them. When he said ‘parents’ I had assumed he meant a mom and a dad—not a dad, mom, dad sandwich.

I glanced furtively at Todd. His eyes were wide open and his mouth looked like it was ready to drop to the floor.

“I’m used to this type of relationship and it appeals to me,” Dave said, rubbing his chin thoughtfully. “I like Todd as a person and I would be interested in seeing where things lead with the three of us. I’ve watched you and Todd exchange glances over the past few weeks—it seems to me the two of you might like to try this also?” Dave caught my eye and smiled.
