Too Close For Comfort

[Amorentia]

Peni POV

It was the lovelist afternoon. Taking advanatge of the mild weather, The Quads were in their stroller we'd magicked so it appeared to be a single stroller that was easy to get in and out of places, but inside it had room for each of the Quads. Marcus was close by them as Jalil and I chased the boys. We had Jaki and the twins cornered in a section of Sara's playground. On the other side of the playground, Blaise was under the slide helping Brailee and Bliss up the stairs to where Sara was sitting under the castle pavillion part helping them down the slide here Blaise caught them to send them up again.  

Marcus POV

I saw the paper floating through the air, catching it without a thought and holding it in front of me.  My eyes rolled over it in horror, seeing the group of us on Sara's front porch, the girls in the swing while I pushed them, Peni feeding two of the quads, Blaise rocking the other two and Sara leaning against the house while the boys ran around us.  This was just yesterday.  The writing on the bottom, though, that was what scarred me, made me realize that this wasn't just a picture, it was a threat, "You're not the only ones who can get close."   The bastard was threatening my family now.  I felt the anger flow through me, stronger than I ever remembered it.  I felt my hands and my body began to shake, looking up, my eyes met Peni's and everything changed. 

Peni POV

I had Nevi tossed over my shoulder running after Deni, when I could feel the change in Marcus. Fury was etched in his face. The only other time I'd seen his eyes that hard was when he'd faced off with his Mother. That night his eyes were cold with memories. Right then they were wild with flames. The hairs on the back of my neck stood up like it always did when there was danger around the Pack. Putting Nevi down, I called to Marcus, just as I saw his body shaking with his fist clenched right before white fur burst out of every part of his body as he phased into his blue eyed Wolf Form.  

Breathless, I didn't even have time to respond to seeing my husband phase beside the innate physical shutter inside of me. Whatever was in Marcus's hand passed to Jalil. The look my brother gave me alerted me even more, as he touched his necklace sending and all call to the Pack. Without declothing he phased into Wolf form taking a defensive posture. At the same time, Jared, Seth, and Justin burst out of my back door. Seth and Jared saw Marucs and Jalil, stripping in an instant to phase. Justin was just a step behind them. My parents came out of the back door asking, "What's going on Peni?"

It all happened so fast as Pack members where using their necklace Portkey's popping one at a time into the backyard to phase. Fur was exploding around me as I snatched at the piece of paper that had set off Jalil and Marcus. My heart stopped. Handing the picture to Blaise beside me, I grabbed a hold of Nevi and Deni yelling to my parents, "Take the kids to John's now. Stay there till we come."

Blaise POV

Being around the Pack, I knew whatever was going on was serious. Nothing could prepare me for what I saw in the picture Peni handed me, though. It took a couple of seconds to register what I was seeing as I heard Peni demanding Jaki come down to hand him to her Mother, making sure her Father had hold of the stroller, as she reached to take Bliss from me. I kissed my daughters head, seeing Peni's parents apparte with all of the kids to La Push. Knowing the kids were gone to safety, Peni immediately phased to join the Pack. Turning to reach for Sara I called to her, "Come down here, sweetheart." Catching Brailee on the slide with my left hand, I readied my wand in my right.

Sara POV

Looking at the picture in his hand, I felt the color drain from my face, "It's never gonna stop" I whispered. Wrapping my arms around him, I did the only thing I could think of, apparating us away.

Marcus POV

All  I could hear was voices filling my head, one after another joining into the noise. I knew I had phased, I didn't know how or why, but I knew I had done it.   

Sam Uley POV

It was something I knew Marcus had in him. Ewan and I had discussed it on many occasions. Ewan had been right. It was just going to take a trigger. This was a big enough one. I wished he had phased at a different time when I had the time to walk him through it like I did with new members. There was no time now.  

"What we've missed her could have been disasterious," I barked at the Pack as I began giving direction, splitting everyone up into pairs to spread out in seperate directions to scour for scents. "Stay in groups of two," I demanded as everyone smelled over the picture to pick up scents. There were close to fifty I found alone. Deep down in the place I kept hidden I wondered what we were into. It was heavy and it was deep.

"Clue in the Rez Pack. Get them all out. You and Kara stay at John's to watch over Marcus's family. Spread out the rest to cover the perimeter. Bring the scent. We can't afford a slip like this again." I told Paul as I heard Peni join the Pack saying to Marcus, "Baby....."

Focused on the Pack, I told everyone to give them a minute. Trim was a factor, but this was big. The time they needed to sort this through we could spare. God knows we needed both of them.

Peni POV

"Baby..." I called gently to Marcus in the Pack consciousness as I made my way over to him. I could hear Sam giving direction. I was listening, but my focus was on my husband who was completely overwhelmed. 

His blue eyes turned to look at me through his white fur as he moved to close the distance between us saying, "I phased..."

Rubbing my face against his, in my head I calmly told him it was alright adding with a laugh, "It was so hot." It was inappropriate for the situation, I knew, but this was us. Light was how we were with each other even in the heaviest situations. It was one of our strengths.  We needed each other right now completely. With a laughing I shared with him the moment of shutter inside of me seeing the Wolf come alive in him. My face against his, I could hear Sam try to direct everyone to give us... well... as much privacy as we could when everyone could hear all of our thoughts. "You're beautiful." I told him before asking, "Are you okay?"

Marcus POV

Laughing I answered, "Yeah, I think so.  Does this mean we can do it doggie style now?  Did everyone just hear me think that?"

Peni laughed at me, in my head, which was weird but nice.  Sam brought my mind back to the task at hand thinking above the chatter, "We need to focus and not lose time". I heard the chorus of agreements from everyone around us as Peni said, "I told you there are no secrets in here." and images of us that first night, her giggling as she hit orgasm after orgasm filled my mind.  I thought it was hot, but the collective group eye rolls I could feel going on told me they disagreed. I could hear Peni's giggle's fading as Sam began trying to get our attention again.

"Sorry, Sam, it caught me off gaurd.  Do we know where he is?  can we get him this time?  why do I itch?"

Peni POV

"That's a good questions," Jalil laughed.

Mad pack laughter errupted as Collin chimed in, "Sounds like a personal problem."

Paul laughed changing to go back to the Rez, as Jacob said through laughing,  "TMI Marcus, too much information my brother. Peni, let's focus on the task at hand and not on humping each other, shall we?"

Laughing I told him he was so funny. "It's just the fur. Scratch it." Knowing where his train of thought was going I added, "And you can lick youself, too.

Even Sam cracked a bit of a smile before saying, "Marcus you're with me."

"Aw..." I protested feeling Sam's word as law and hearing he had good reason. Marcus and I would be more forcus apart.  We always get very side tracked together, to say the least. My husband had a lot to catch up on with being Pack. Sam was the best person to teach him. At

"Let's go," Sam directed.

Between our minds I told Marcus, "Think what a force we are to protect our family." With a slow blink I told him, "I love you," before turning to start hunting with Leah. Turning to look back at him as I ran, I giggles hearing his thoughts as I asked him, "Are you checking out my tail?" 

Jacob wagged his wolfie tail for Peni. "You know my tail's sexy."

Laughing my babies mind was all over the new meaning we could give to doggie style. Sam called us to task calling, "Stay together. Don't miss a thing, even if we have to stay here all night. To Marcus he said, "This way."  

"Wait up," I called to Leah.

"Get our of your husbands pants and catch up," Leah told me picking up her speed.

"I'm not wearing pants," Marcus yelled making me giggle as I could feel Leah's mental eyeroll.

Marcus POV

I followed Sam, a thousand things running through my mind, everything from how to know if Peni was ok to why I am so damn hot.  Peni's sweet voice interrupt my thoughts, "I'll be here, baby. You can hear me." Out of no where, I heard numbers and directions and I had no idea how I was supposed to keep up. 

Thankfully, Sam didn't seem to have the same problem.  I trailed behind him, listening as he explained, "It's confusing at first, but you get used to it."

Laughing, my eyes met Sam's, the constant visions of some kind of nudity playing through my mind.  Pack guys apparently get alot of ass, I thought as I asked, "When do I get used to all the thoughts of people naked?"  In response to my question, I suddenly got dozens of pornographic images flashing thought my head, arms tangled, legs in the air, bodies bouncing, I yelled out, "Ok, ok, stop with the sex thoughts people!"

Peni POV

All I could so was laugh as we all bombarded Marcus with sexual memories.  There were a lot , "Dude, please!", moment as we all offered up our favorite memories of other people's sex lives that we gained through the Pack mind. I threw a couple of my favorite of us in as Marcus told me to stop, too.

Jacob rolled his eyes. "I'm single here people, remember? Lay off the sex talk or I'm gonna be one lonely wolf with a very big problem."

"I know more about you people right now then I ever cared to...and really Jalil..is that position even possible?" Marcus asked.

'You haven't seen anything yet." I told my sweet man as some of us sent the most wild things people have done. 

Sam barked, "That's enough." Even though he was giving Marcus room, he was ready for the rest of us to get down to business. 

While Leah and I worked, I could hear Sam giving Marcus the crash course on Pack life. He explained details about how we do things, our senses, and how to use them. Sam transferred sensory information of the scents found on the picture. Any one of the fifty or so scents could be leads we could try to follow to try to find the man behind Sara's attack.

"If it was a Wizard using a Summoning Charm," I said about the picture. "He could have apparted to China now and we'd never know. 

Marcus POV

My pretty Peni giggled, "You're so cute."

Tuning her out, I thought to myself, "shhhh...don't talk marcus,you don't wanna be the one to fuck this up...fuck they can hear me" I remembered at the last moment.

"You're so cute, baby. you're doing great."

Laughing at her sweetness, I asked, "Do they make headphones for this shit. how do you people not get headaches."   I ran after Sam, my head aching from all the noise, I lifted my hand to rub it, falling on my face before I remembered I was in wolf form, "I can't even rub my head..."

I could hear comments about my smoothness and laughter coming from everywhere, Peni asking sweetly. "Oh... are you okay?"  As Jalil said laughing, "Dude that was hilarious."

Peni started yelling at everyone to shut up, but I decided to handle it my own way, "Fuck you and fuck you..." pointing around the pack, "Sam, talk louder, I can't hear you above all the fucktardedness"

Sam called again, "Focus everyone...."

Peni POV

"Keep it simple for the newbie." Jalil said  as jokes rolled in about Marcus only being able to handle one voice at a time and how everyone should talk really slowly using simple words. Right when I was going to tell them all to shove it, Leah and I picked up a scent right on the edge of the Village Square.

Leah lowered herself to the ground as I saw Romelda Vane with her two kids walking from one store to another.

"Unless she's offering you Chocolate Cauldrons," I told Leah a bit confused as to why Romelda would have touched this picture. "She's harmless." Among the stores we were bombarded by more scents from the picture from everyday Wizards here in Great Hallow. Suddenly we had a lot more questions than answers.
