Chapter 1

The music from the iPod blared across the backyard and over the pool. The pack was busy preparing lunch on the patio of the fully restored Hale estate. A beautiful blond young man with blue eyes, angular features and full pouty lips was mouthing the words along to the song that was playing, and was dancing as he was setting out place settings on the table. "I'm sexy and I know it…" he said softly as he was thrusting his speedo clad hips from side to side. He laughed to himself smirking, folding the napkins into little bishop hats. His mother, rest her tortured soul, one of her few good qualities was that she believed in a well set table no matter how informal or casual the occasion, and Jackson had adopted that trait.

He was startled when a pair of hands wrapped around his hips swaying with the music. He felt the hips pressed against his moving in unison and laughed. He dropped the napkin, turned to face the beautiful sculpted body now against his and belted out in unison with the other young man, "I'm sexy and I know it!" The two pale wolves kept dancing and singing the lyrics to the song, making quite a scene. Derek, who was at the grill tending to the steaks, looked in their direction, just shaking his head. Stiles, who was using the pool skimmer to take leaves and bits of the forest out of the pool was, to a lesser degree, dancing and singing along to the song as well. When he saw his brothers starting to dance, he dropped the long aluminum pole and danced over to join them. The three knocked their hips and butts together, all the while singing along with the song.

Scott came out of the house carrying a platter of vegetables and fresh bread. He laughed at his brothers' antics. He danced his way to the table careful to not spill anything, and put the platter down and continued his dancing towards the other three to join in. Stiles gyrated over towards Scott and they both raised their hands in the air alternating hip-bumping in time to the song. Each time the song lyrics said 'I'm sexy and I know it' all four wolves sang the words out loudly.

"Go for it Jackson. Own it! Work it!" shouted Ted in encouragement. Derek looked over again and saw that the other three were standing aside in a line, as Jackson runway-walked across the flagstone patio. He stopped, flexed his jaw, turned, and runway-walked back to whoops and hollers from his pack mates.

Derek shouted, "You want fries with that shake pretty boy?"

Everyone laughed as Jackson turned bright red but didn't stop strutting. The extended mix of the song was almost over when Ted approached Jackson with a tiny petunia he had pulled from a nearby planter, and gave it to him. Jackson smiled and kissed his 'adoring fan' on the cheek. Ted pretended he was swooning like a 13-year old fanboy. Everyone froze when they heard a loud growl that came from the direction of the house.

Standing in the doorway was Danny carrying a large bowl of salt-and-vinegar potato chips. His eyes were flashing and the pack could see his claws extending, threatening to shatter the bowl in his hands. "Get away from him," he growled again low and threateningly.

Jackson spoke up. "Danny, it's nothing. We are just being stupid. Ted didn't do anything. It was just a peck on the cheek like a teeny bopper. We were playing."

Stiles ran over to Danny and took the bowl from him before it shattered. "Um, Danny, settle down." He placed the bowl on the table and turned back to the fuming black-haired boy who was about to shift. He placed his hands on Danny's shoulders and then slid a hand up the hot cheek. "Danny, it was nothing. Now calm down before you do something stupid. Ted is not hitting on Jackson. You know we were all teasing Jackson and just playing."

A few steps away, Ted spoke up. "Danny, I am sorry. It really was just playing being silly with the song. You know I like to dance and when I heard Jackson singing the song I joined him and we were just playing. Nothing else. Honest. You could tell if I was lying."

Jackson saw that Danny wasn't listening and he got angry. "Fine, Danny. Be that way. Let's see if you believe us now." Everyone was gobsmacked as he pulled off his speedo and threw it at Danny, hitting him in the face. Danny's eyes returned to normal just for a moment until Jackson continued. He walked over to Scott, and yanked down his trunks exposing his nakedness, and then did the same to Ted pulling his speedo down as well.

He walked over to Stiles and pantsed him, then looked at Stiles, who moved aside. Danny was shaking trying to control his anger, when Jackson kissed him full on the mouth, licking his fangs. Danny started to relax at the feel of his mate's warm tongue tasting his mouth so fully, when suddenly he was bare-assed. Jackson had pantsed him too.

Jackson pulled back, turned with a wicked twinkle in his eyes, and walked back to where Ted and Scott were standing, junk still exposed, having not moved. He winked at them as he walked over to Derek who had frozen in place as well. The tongs were still, in mid air, a piece of steak hanging from them, threatening to drop. Jackson took the tongs and meat from him and set it on the platter. Derek just looked at him with a 'don't you dare' look. Jackson turned to him, cocked his head sideways looking at him in the eyes. Derek just rolled his eyes in acquiescence. Jackson pulled down Derek's black square-cut swimsuit leaving it around his ankles.

Jackson turned back to see the mouths of everyone looking at him not knowing if he had been secretly brewing meade again. He stopped, set his pose and flicked the button he had on his Pebble watch. Another song came blaring again from the outdoor sound system around the backyard and pool. 'I'm too sexy for my shirt' filled their space. Jackson runway-walked seductively over to his mate, and took him by his hands.

Danny stumbled, as he had to untangle his trunks from his feet. Jackson reached out and grabbed Stiles to drag him along. They walked over to where Scott and Ted were stepping out of their suits to join them. They all four were standing there naked just looking at each other. Ted at Scott, Jackson at Danny, and Stiles over to Derek. Derek walked over to join them. Jackson kissed Danny again, who was still flashing his eyes but had calmed down. Suddenly they all felt themselves falling. Then a big splash.

Derek had rushed the tight group taking them all, including himself, into the pool. "What the hell?" shouted Jackson. "My hair!" Everyone laughed, except him.

"Jackson, really. Your hair?" said Derek. He laughed again and got a face full of water. "OH," he sputtered. "It's on now buttermilk!" He lunged at Jackson dunking him under. Soon the whole pack joined in rough housing and playing in the pool.

"Shit!" Jackson exclaimed. "The steaks!" He rushed to the side of the pool and climbed out, water sheeting off his alabaster skin as he ran over to the grill. He saw that Derek had already turned it off and the steaks were just keeping warm. He looked back at the pool to see Derek wink at him. He just shook his head. Of course his alpha had thought ahead. He thought of everything. Jackson loved being part of their family.

He heard a growl again, and looked to see Danny's eyes flashing again. He smelled arousal. He noticed all the eyes of the pack were on him. He loved Danny, but had nothing to be jealous about. His heart and soul belonged to Danny. No one but the Creator himself could change that. He was surprised when he heard Derek's voice.

"Pup. Settle down. Now." Derek spoke directly at Danny.

"But everyone's looking at Jackson and they want to fuck him. He's mine!" he roared in response.

His reply was a huge face full of water. He sputtered to see and speak. "What was that for?" he yelped.

Derek just chuckled as he paddled over. "Danny. Your mate is very beautiful. He's got great skin, hair, eyes, a bubble butt you could bounce a quarter off of, a dick to choke a horse, and guess what. A heart the size of Alaska. Regardless of the wrapper the heart is his best quality. And guess what, little pup," He ruffled Danny's hair. "It's all for you. He has given you his most precious and valuable quality. Sure, we are all just men and we know a hot guy when we see one, but don't forget. We all have mates too and we all have our own relationships. We honor and love that. We honor and love yours' and Jackson's too. We would never violate that. Earlier, when you saw everyone being, well, the only word I can think of is gay, so, we'll go with that. Earlier when you saw everyone just being gay, well guess what. It's because we are gay. Just because we are gay and we get turned on by each other doesn't mean we are going to get all Falcon Video Pac in here."

Stiles just roared with laughter at the video pac comment. Ted and Scott just rolled their eyes laughing. Ted paddled over to Danny and placed his hand on his shoulder.

"Danny, yes your mate is hot. Hell, all of my brothers are hot and if I was single, I would be in trouble. But please don't ever think I would ever do anything to mess with what you two have. I mean, he's cute of course, but he's no Scott. It's Scott that I chose and who chose me and I will only ever love him. I will only ever make love with him." He looked over to see Scott blush and give him a coy smile. "I love all of you, my brothers, but different. Some packs blur the boundaries between partners, and that's okay, but ours doesn't. Not like that. And even if we did, it doesn't take the Hubble telescope to see that Jackson's heart is only for you. I'm sorry if you thought that I or any of us was trying to violate that. It wasn't my or our intention and I am sorry if we hurt your feelings."

He just stood there with his hands still on Danny's shoulder, silently waiting. The air grew tense as he waited. There was no sound, the iPod having reached the end of the playlist. All they heard was the soft whir from the pool pump and the sounds of the forest. Danny's eyes flashed and Ted tensed, ready for a fight. Everyone felt it. This could be bad.
