~Chapter 4~~~

I wake the next morning to my doorbell ringing, I throw on a robe and walk downstairs to see Pink through the window in my door, an umbrella over her head and a happy expression on her face. I was one of her favorite producers, especially when we toured together.

"Morning, sorry about the early wake-up call." She says as I let her into the house and she hands me an iced coffee as an apology.

"You know I don't mind it. I just forgot to set my alarm last night before bed. Come on up, the quicker we get started the faster you can get back to your kids." She smiles and hugs me before I lead her up to the sound room. In the next few hours we got the main parts of her album cranked out, all that was left was me mixing it all together and sending it back to her to check out before it went to production.

"I love how fast we work together, it's the fastest I've ever gotten an album ready." She says softly, putting herself on vocal rest till she gets home.

"It's not that late in the day, if you head home now, you'll make it in time for Willow to get home from school. I can take care of the rest of this tonight and drop-box it to you to go over when you have a chance." I offer and she hugs me tightly as her way of saying goodbye and heads out of the house. I throw on my headphones and get started mixing everything together; I must have been really into my work because I jump when my headphones are removed and Jake is standing behind me.

"I knocked and called you over and over Isa. I got worried, since it's soundproof I could barely hear your heartbeat." He looks at me with his stern yet worried face and I laugh at him.

"You know how I get when I'm working. I want to get this done, it's the last thing I have to worry about before I can focus on the finishing touches on Charlie and Sue's wedding." He hugs me tightly before carrying me to my office and sits me in my chair.

"We have to talk. Rose mentioned you have more than one mate and I know how Paul looks at you. I need to know who the other person is, so when they find out I can try to keep Paul from killing them." I sigh and lean back into my chair. I wasn't really ready to have this conversation with Jake, let alone anyone else. I know that there are going to be questions that I have no idea how to answer.

"Paul and Jasper are both my mates." I murmur as I bury my face in my hands, worrying that Jake is gonna freak out over this.

"What?" I peek through my fingers to see that he's just confused and not angry.

"Jasper and Paul are my mates and each other's mate. Marcus says it's a triangle, none of us are more important than the other. It's all equal."
"How is that going to work? They are supposed to be mortal enemies, hell Jasper is dead? What are you gonna do? Are you going to become a Vampire and be with Jasper after Paul decides to quit phasing and grows old? Are you only going to have Paul's kids? What does Jasper think about that? " He fires off questions faster than I can answer them and I become flustered and angry.

"I have no idea what is going to happen Jake! They don't know about any of it. They think it's all just sexual attraction and nothing else. I can't tell them until they get over the sexual parts, I have no idea how they are going to deal with it or if they even want to. I don't know if I'll become a vampire or have kids or any of it. Hell, I don't even know why I have two mates!" I shout back at him, feeling my own skin vibrate in retaliation to his subdued tremors. I know he is trying to keep his wolf at bay since no human would risk yelling at the Alpha of the pack.

"I understand you are trying to keep everyone safe and whatever, but this isn't something that you can fix or control. I'm sorry I snapped, but I honestly can't answer your questions right now. They don't know about the mate thing and you can't tell them or the rest of the pack.

" I'm sorry too. I didn't mean to get loud and pushy, I just don't want them to kill one another over you, or because of one another. I promise I won't say anything to either one of them, the Alpha's thoughts aren't projected like the others are, so it'll be safe with me. Did your anger tap into Paul's wolf? You were shaking like you were gonna phase yourself." He chuckles as he hugs me in apology.

"I either shake like Paul or hiss like Jasper. I already have some of Jasper's characteristics, the more I am around Paul I'll gain some of his. It's gonna be a long awkward conversation once they figure it out, and it'll probably have to be out in a clearing or something. Jasper is open-minded when it comes to multiples in a relationship because he's seen it in other vampires. It may be Paul that loses it. I know in my gut that just because Jasper is so much older and was the leader of an army he'd be the alpha of our little triangle, and that would drive Paul's wolf crazy." Jake shakes his head as I speak. It felt wonderful to talk to someone whose mind is closed to the others thoughts and will keep my secret.

"You'll end up being the alpha, I'm sure of it. You helped Angela keep all of the wolves inline and you stopped taking shit from people in general. They may not like it, but with how powerful you are in your own skin now, they'll abide by you. If you tell them not to fight, I feel like out of sheer respect for you, they'd listen. But I would still keep some of the pack nearby just in case." He advises and I nod.

"Keep both of them with you the next few days, it may help with the pull. It definitely helps with the Imprints. I know you don't classify as an Imprint, but still. Try it and it may speed up their feeling of pull." He kisses my cheek and leads me out of my soundroom and down to his truck.

"I also came to kidnap you for your dress fitting. I know you hate it and need the reminder. You can't get out of it. Sue made you and Leah her bridesmaids." I groan as he lifts me into his lifted chevy and buckle in. Within breaths were at the small bridal shop in town and I walked in to see Leah's sleek form wrapped in a royal blue wrap dress with flutter sleeves that compliments her body beautifly.

"You're next girl. Gotta make sure it fits before the wedding." Sue says smiling at me as Leah hugs me and goes back to change. As I walk back to the dressing room, I sharply pull on Paul's thread and feel him heading towards me. His end of the bond is frayed because I was so far away from him for so long, so I need to doctor it up a lot before I add Jasper into the mix as well. As I'm pulling the dress on I hear the bell over the door ring, and Paul's deep voice. He sounds confused as to why he is here, so I walk out and over to him.

"Mind zipping me up?" I ask turning to show him my bare back and the zipper that I couldn't reach, I feel his hot hands against my skin and shiver.

"How does it look?" I ask turning around. He has a slight blush across his dark cheeks, but he is grinning at me.

"You look fantastic, Isa." He rumbles and I take his hand as I walk over to Sue for her confirmation, once she nods I walk back to the dressing room and ask Paul to unzip me, before pushing him out of the dressing room, after he seductively drags his fingers down my back.

"Don't go anywhere! I wanna spend some time with you today." I say as I quickly pull my clothes back on, and I hear his grunt of confirmation
