moment apparently.
“So, Skye tell me a little about yourself.” Jacob said and smiled sweetly at her.
“Sure,” She said looking at Argus and glaring at him before turning back to Jacob. “You know my name; I am from Florida, traveling through to Colorado. I have always wanted to live by the mountains, and so I decided, after a failed relationship, that I needed a change. No brothers or sisters, and parents are deceased so I had no one to hold me in Florida. Just working at the restaurant until I made enough money for my car repairs, which I have. Now I will finish my coffee and take my leave. It was nice meeting you Jacob. Argus I wish I could say the same but you are a pain in the ass.”
Jacob laughed and slapped his hand on the table. “Sweetheart that was awesome. I don’t think anyone has talked to Argus like that in years. But, I have to say that I kinda have to disagree with a few points there. When we told you that you were our mate, what did you think we were saying? I know that you are having a hard time. Honestly, we were going to do this right. I planned to have flowers and chocolates sent. Of course, I had to cancel them, considering what had been going on, but I wanted you to know we did think about it.”
“Uh, duh, thought you were crazy! Using those tricks and stuff on me. Personally, I think that if you wanted to get laid, you should have left out the lion part. The flowers and stuff would have been good but turning furry would probably negate the gifts.” She said.
“Well then, let me explain this a little further. Shifters are sexual creatures, and yes, we are attracted to you. But when we say that you are our mate, it means that we are going to be with each other forever. As long as our life spans allow, which is usually around 200 years. You are the only female we will ever take into our bed from here on out, we want no other. We have a compound for all of our Pride. Currently, it is about five miles to the south. But because of recent revelations, we are moving to Milliken, Colorado. So, you see, fate has already stepped in. The Gods have given you to us. If we had not met here, we would have in Colorado, it is destiny. Argus and I can truly shift into lions. When you are changed, you will too. I bet you will be a gorgeous lioness. You will be the female lioness of our Pride, which for you will be instinctual. You will want to care for the Pride, and they will show you unwavering loyalty.” Jacob said.
Skye looked between the two men and frowned. Argus sat straight in his seat, looking at her for a response, while Jacob took her hand and soothed her with his touch. She was not sure how this was supposed to work. Two men? Ok, the lion thing is crazy, but a ménage? She was sure that she would never be able to keep the two men happy. Bob had always told her that she was a frigid bitch. Not that she believed that totally, but he seemed to not be aroused by her body, and would always insist on her using her hand to make him hard before sex.
She cleared her throat and said. “So, how is this supposed to work? There are two of you. Why would both of you want me?”
“Like I told you before, it is our destiny, trust me that story is a long one. I think, better explained when we have more time.” Argus said.
“Right, I think I would like to hear this explanation now.” Skye said.
Argus growled and glared at her. She was so stubborn he thought. Did they not just say that they would explain later? She should trust in them that they would take care of her. “Skye, we are unfortunately on a short time table. I will give you the brief version and explain more later. The shifter community is run by a Council. The first shifters were not from the United States, the Old Council was in Europe. Then the Old Council Seer made a prediction.
