Neanderthals?”
“Uh… I wouldn't insul...” Melissa didn't get to finish her warning. Damian stepped forward until he was virtually standing on top of Wesley.
“Melissa will not be going on any dates now or in the future, with you or any other male. She is married to us.
You had your chance and blew it. Leave now,” Damian snarled.
Wesley looked from one man to the other, ice running through his veins at the threat he could feel emanating from the two men standing in Melissa doorway. Hidden aggression was paramount in their stance.
“Seems I was right about you all along, you dirty little slut,” Wesley muttered darkly.
He was about to turn away, but before he could, a hard fist slammed into his eye and cheek. The blow knocked him to the ground and he yelped in pain.
“You ever insult my wife again you slimy little bastard, you will not live to see another day. I suggest if you value your life, you get your ass off Melissa's property right now,” Luke growled, the threat rumbling out from between clenched teeth.
Wesley gained his feet, swaying slightly before he ran to his car then he sped away with a squeal of tires.
Damian and Luke watched the weasel drive away slamming the door closed ushering her back into the kitchen.

“Was violence really necessary?” Melissa yelled in disbelief.
“Was I supposed to let him get away with insulting you?” Luke asked glaring at her.
“You could have handled it without violence Luke,”
Melissa said sighing. Shit what had she gotten herself into.
Could it really be possible they would ever be able to live in harmony? She was not a submissive female and her men were very dominant. She just didn't see how their relationship would survive. They would be clashing all the time.
“It's our job to protect you Melissa. Your life and happiness is to be placed above all things. If you're happy then we will be happy also. We cannot allow you to be insulted or hurt in anyway,” Luke stated quietly.
“I'm not one of these women who can be pushed around. Can't you see that? I am more than capable of protecting myself if the need arises. I will not be told what to do. If this relationship is going to work you are going to have to learn to compromise,” Melissa said angrily as she glared from Damian to Luke.
“Melissa, please try to understand it is our wolf's instinct to protect our mate. If you are in danger of any kind, be it physical or verbal, we cannot simply stand back and watch you get hurt. I'm sorry if that makes you angry or uncomfortable. We cannot change who we are just because you're used to doing things for yourself. You have us to help you and we can't just stand by and watch while someone insults you. You need to be able to compromise as well sweetheart. If you can't accept us for who we are, then maybe we should just go back home,” Damian quietly spoke, his voice resonating through the small place.
Melissa stared out the kitchen window as she pondered what they had said. She had been critical of them.
She knew if she or Sara were in the same position, the other would have stepped in to protect the other. She needed to 57
stop looking for reasons to keep them at arms length and accept them for the weres they were. That didn't mean she had to be submissive to them. She could still stand up for herself and what she believed in, without trying the change them. Raising her eyes to her mates she looked from one to the other.
“I'm sorry. You're right.” Melissa apologized and then explained. “I'm just so used to being by myself. I guess I've just become too independent. I am not really trying to change who you are, I'm just not used to depending on anyone beside my sister and myself. Please forgive me?”
“Come here sweetheart,” Damian commanded holding out a hand to her.
Melissa walked over to Damian, taking his hand in hers. Damian snagged his other arm around her waist and pulled her down to his lap where he tucked her securely into
