Remus arrived back at his house with Paul and Sam in tow. It was already about ten o'clock, and none of them had gotten any sleep since the dinner the day before. It had taken a bit of effort to make sure that neither Paul or Sam fought with each other, but they managed to reach the house without harming each other.
Deactivating the wards, Remus invited both of the shifters in. Both of them entered, taking in the colour scheme and tastefully selected furniture. Paul, having not known Remus prior to the night before, was surprised at how well off the werewolf seemed to be.
Taking a seat on the couch, Remus asked Sam, "so what are you going to do now? I'm quite certain you have some things to tell your pack, what with both you and Paul imprinting on me. Jacob appears to have imprinted on Harry as well, so that probably makes up half of your pack."
Sam chewed on his lip thoughtfully, an unconscious gesture that Remus thought was cute, and surprisingly Paul too. "I think I'll gather the pack later in the afternoon and tell them all about what's happened to Emily, as well as the whole imprinting business. By the way Remus, I think it'd be best if you and Harry meet the pack later on and explain just what you being a werewolf means."
Remus nodded in agreement, deciding to keep the fact that Harry had some very interesting abilities of his own to himself. When the time came that Harry decided to reveal his magic, only then will he speak of it to Sam and Paul, even if he shouldn't be keeping secrets from his imprints. The fact that it was difficult to keep secrets among the shifters also helped to cement his decision in keeping this secret.
Clearing his throat, Remus stated, "until then, the both of you can rest in the guest bedroom. It's already been furnished and although there's only one king-sized bed in it, I'm sure that the both of you can share. I'm going to sleep in my own room."
"But I wanna sleep with you!" Sam cried out indignantly.
Remus shook his head firmly. "No, I thought I mentioned that I will not get intimate with either of you until I've gotten to know the both of you more. Besides, letting you sleep with me would be unfair to Paul."
To his surprise, Paul interjected. "I wouldn't mind if I get to sleep with you as well!"
Sam got over his surprise quickly and shot Remus a full blast of puppy-dog eyes. That, combined with Paul doing the exact same thing, made Remus cave. "Oh all right, you guys can sleep in my room. But no funny business!" The two shifters let out a small cheer before eagerly following Remus to his bedroom, making sure to make as little noise as possible, for fear of waking Jacob and Harry.
Remus' room was dimly lit as curtains blocked sunlight from entering, while a small lamp at the corner of the room provided the slight visibility. Remus switched on the overhead light and the shifters looked around their mate's room in wonder. the walls were an earthy brown, complemented by the brown oak desk and wardrobe along the walls. Most of the room was taken up by a massive bed in the centre of the room, unmade from the time Remus slept in it the day before. The bed was definitely big enough to accommodate the three of them, and a naughty thought ran through Remus' mind when he realised that it was big enough for more... strenuous activities.
Blushing at that thought, he quickly took some clothes from the wardrobe and went into the adjacent bathroom to shower, leaving the two shifters alone in the bedroom.
As soon as the shower could be hurt running, Sam turned to Paul with a serious look on his face. Paul stepped back slightly, fearful that the Alpha would attack him. However, all Sam did was to put a hand on his shoulder and spoke gently. "All right Paul, I recognise that you've imprinted on Remus and I definitely will not interfere in that. However, Are you truly all right with the idea of the three of us being together? I'd rather you tell me now so that Remus won't be hurt if we can't do it."
Paul was stunned for a moment, before immediately replying. "I'm definitely fine with the threesome. As long as I can be with Remus, I don't mind anything."
Sam nodded thoughtfully, before a wicked grin spread across his face. "Well, in that case, why don't we get used to each other first?" Saying which, he leaned down and kissed Paul on the lips. The suddenness of it all shocked Paul and he gasped, unknowingly giving Sam permission to further the kiss.
Sam moaned at the contact of Paul's lips. They were satin soft and tasted heavenly, like vanilla and something spicy mixed together. When Paul gasped and his lips parted for that short instant, Sam took advantage of it and deepened the kiss, his tongue slipping within the gap and eagerly probing the hot cavern.
Paul too was moaning into the kiss, mind reeling from the pleasure of kissing his Alpha. His body was tingling and the only thing he could focus on was how nice it felt to be kissing his Alpha. The way he was being dominated by his Alpha via the kiss was so overwhelming that his mind just shut itself down and Paul lost himself in the pleasure.
Sam was so engrossed in trying to map out every part of Paul's mouth that he failed to notice Remus emerging from the bathroom and looking on in amusement. The Alpha pulled back suddenly when he felt a hot breath against his ear. "I was hoping that the two of you wouldn't be fighting, but I guess kissing is far better than that, even if it's physical."
Sam turned around to see Remus grinning broadly, dressed in a pair of pyjamas. He tried defending himself but nothing came out of his mouth. "You know, you look very cute like that." That was all Remus said before another pair of lips were pressed against his, this one more dominating than Paul's.
Remus could feel the excitement of his inner wolf rushing through him as he kissed Sam, the wolf within him wanting to dominate the shifter. It wasn't long at all before Sam started kissing back hard, not willing to lose the battle for dominance. Both of them kept trying to tease each other into parting their lips by nipping at them, but Remus gave in first.
With a moan of pleasure, Remus allowed Sam;s tongue to slip within his mouth, thereby losing the battle for dominance. That wasn't to say that Remus was angry; he had no intention of winning the battle in the first place. Sam was clearly born an Alpha, while Remus had become one due to extenuating circumstances. As such, Remus was more than glad to submit to an Alpha that was his mate.
The two of them broke apart when they heard Paul whining off to the side, unhappy that he wasn't able to join in on the action. Remus smiled before pulling the Beta in for a kiss as well. This time though, he dominated the kiss and was soon rewarded with the sweet taste of Paul's mouth. The kiss lasted about a minute before Remus ended it with a sigh. He could feel his emotions and hormones trying to tell him to continue and get down to the more physical stuff, but he pushed it back.
"As much as I'd love to continue, I won't. As I said, I will not do anything more with you guys until I know you all better." The two shifters whined in disappointment, both of their bodies shaking with need and arousal. Smiling mischievously, Remus continued, "but I guess contact is still okay, so you guys can join me on the bed."
Remus climbed onto the bed, laying in the centre of it and was soon joined by Sam on his left and Paul on his right. Sam threw an arm around Remus who had turned to face Paul and pulled him closer, enjoying the close contact with his imprint. Remus pulled Paul closer to him as well, while Paul simply snuggled into Remus' side. The three of them fell into a dreamless sleep in that position.

Emmett stood about a hundred metres from a large house in the middle of the woods, making sure that he was still on his side of the border. He had spent most of the morning trying to find out where Harry stayed and was forced to conclude that if he didn't stay in this particular house, then it meant that Harry was staying at the La Push reservation. If that was the case, then it would mean that meeting Harry would be close to impossible unless Harry stepped out of the La Push boundaries.
Emmett glanced at the house. He could hear the heartbeats of about five people within the house, surprising him since he thought that Harry only stayed with that Remus guy. He hadn't been able to see any sign that could tell him if Harry stayed there, but his gut feeling told him that it was so. From what he could hear, the five people in the house appeared to be sleeping, so Emmett decided to just stay on a nearby treetop and watch from a distance. He ignored the feeling of unease he was getting, unaware that it was due to the very slight scent of the shifters in the air.

Carlisle returned back to his home at about noon, and collapsed on the living room sofa was a loud sigh. This caught the attention of the entire coven except Emmett who wasn't present: as tough as work at the hospital could get, Carlisle never returned feeling so tired. Edward read his Sire's mind and frowned as he viewed the event at the hospital involving the La Push shifters and that Remus Lupin.
"Carlisle, does this mean that we may be in danger?" Edward asked quietly after updating the rest of the coven on the incident. Alice was busy seeing into the future, trying to see if there was any trouble ahead.
"No, I don't think so, but I just don't like that fact that there are two people out there who we don't know anything about, but know everything about us. If Remus really is a werewolf, then he can be a great threat to us. But if we do nothing to harm the citizens of Forks, then he won't do anything to us."
"Do you actually trust his word?" Rosalie burst out angrily.
"Rosalie, we have no choice. If what Carlisle knows about werewolves is true, we can do almost nothing against it. Apparently, even Caius of the Volturi almost lost to one." Edward sighed heavily. This bit of information startled everyone; Caius was known to be incredibly gifted in fighting, but if even he almost lost, then what chance did their coven have?
"Throw in Harry, who we do not know anything about, the whole situation is one conundrum." Carlisle stated. "But I guess the only thing we can do is to go about our daily lives and not antagonise either of these people. Even if they are in contact with the La Push shifters, that does not mean anything. I doubt that they are planning to attack us at all, so do not worry."
At this point, Alice spoke up. "From what I can tell, there is danger coming, but for some reason the shifters and both Remus and Harry are helping us against this danger. So I guess for now, until we can determine the exact threat that is coming, as well as the danger Harry poses to us, we should just let it be."
"What about Emmett? He's still intent on getting to know that Harry." Edward questioned.
Carlisle pondered on the matter for a moment before answering. "Actually I think we should let him continue. Any information he finds about Harry could help us in the future. Who knows, Harry may actually reveal what he is."
A.N.: All right, I know I said that I'll be writing about when the pack finds about all the imprinting, but I figured that this chapter should come before that. It's a bit short, but only because I wish to spend the next chapter on the interactions of the pack as well as when Harry and Remus meet the pack. There may or may not be a confrontation with Emmett at the house, I haven't decided on that yet. Some opinions on this would be appreciated, so please keep reviewing! They really give the inspiration to keep writing. Cheers!
