Hey Mr. Wolf

I’m Monroe. I like clocks, gentle exercise, and routine. Also cooking. I’m a vegetarian. So, uh. Hi. [ Nick | Juliette ]

[thefairestgrimm-blog-deactivate]

Nick arches his back, trying to get closer to Monroe. He needs the friction, more of it, and his grip tightens in Monroe’s hair. The dizziness is back, that all-consuming heat growing inside his stomach. It’s not just as bad as before, but there’s Monroe, and now also Juliette, and their mixed scents set something off inside of him he hadn’t known before. Nick spreads his legs instinctively and when Monroe bites down on his neck, he can’t help but moan. “Fuck.”

Above him, a soft gasp escapes Juliette and she squeezes his hand in reassurance. 

[heymrwolf-blog]

The sound of Juliette’s voice is a reminder that slips through the distraction of Nick’s smell, a reminder that she’s right there, watching them, holding Nick’s hand while he… 

Monroe looks up at her again, but she’s focused on Nick’s face. He takes a second to remind himself that this is okay, with both of them. Then he kisses Nick again, breathing in the thick smell of his heat, and slides one hand down across his belly and between his spread legs. He’s still wet from before, ready, and it’s Monroe’s turn to growl as he pushes two fingers in, deep and easy. 

[thefairestgrimm-blog-deactivate]

Nick moans when Monroe’s fingers slip into him and his hips move on their own accord, fucking himself down onto the fingers inside of him He’s ready, more than ready.

Above him he can hear Juliette say his name. Her own voice is rough, breathless and full of wonder, and he clutches at her hand. She reaches to gently stroke some hair out of his forehead and Nick smiles up at her.

“Go on,” he says, looking back at Monroe, and lifts up a leg to press the heel of his foot against the small of Monroe’s back.

[heymrwolf-blog]

If it were any other time, if Nick's smell wasn't doing things to his instincts even years of practice and effort couldn't stop, Monroe would think about this more. All three of them would have talked about it and taken their time. 

But it's not any other time, and the thought that he needs to be more careful, consider Juliette,  disappears in a sudden haze of red when he feels the gentle, steady pressure of Nick's heel. Monroe snarls and shoves forward between Nick's thighs, gripping his hips tight enough to draw the sharp scent of blood where the tips of his claws rake Nick's skin. The smell only makes the need in him more vicious, and he pushes into Nick with one firm stroke.

[julivet-blog]

Juliette nods at Monroe and mouths ‘go on’ while shifting to sit against the headboard. Her thighs brush against Nick’s shoulder and she leans forward to brush some hair from his forehead. It feels warm, not as bad as this morning, but if she didn’t know better, Juliette would still think he is sick.

“I think Nick would be very disappointed if you left, wouldn’t you, Nick?” Nicks moans slightly and nods in agreement, his hand grasping for Juliette’s, and she takes it and squeezes it gently.

[heymrwolf-blog]

Monroe takes a deep breath and shifts his focus back to Nick’s too-bright eyes, the way he licks his lower lip and tilts his soft little ears forward. He glances up at Juliette one more time, before slowly leaning down to kiss him. Nick’s fingers slip into his hair straight away, tugging him closer. The heat scent is getting into Monroe’s senses again now, too, so he kisses him how he seems to want; dirty and wet, holding his shoulder down just because he can and because it feels good to hold him still. There’s something different now though, Juliette’s scent strong and close instead of a faint afterthought on the sheets. It doesn’t bother him though… it feels almost normal, natural, and he meets her eyes again as he moves lower to bite a new mark onto the exposed skin of Nick’s throat.

“Good, because I don’t want either of you to leave.” Nick blinks up at them still half asleep and his brain trying to make sense of what he just heard. He’s not sure what woke him up; he has no idea how long he was even out for; he just…

“I feel hot,” he says finally, wriggling against the sheets.

[heymrwolf-blog]

“I’ll stay as long as you both still want me here,” Monroe says, nipping gently at Nick’s ear as his smell shifts subtly into something hotter and needier as he gets more wakeful. He looks to Juliette as he shifts to brush Nick’s temple with his lips, waiting on her to lead, watching for any hint that she doesn’t like what he’s doing.

“Good thing I’m not like a lot of women then, isn’t it?” She moves her hand through Monroe’s hair, messing it up playfully. “So what are we going to do when he wakes up? Do you want me to…?”

[heymrwolf-blog]

He feels more at ease knowing that Juliette isn’t worried, and he tilts his head towards her touch. Nervous, definitely. Scared, not so much. “No,” he says. “No, you should stay.”

[thefairestgrimm-blog-deactivate]

He looks to Juliette as he shifts to brush Nick's temple with his lips waiting on her to lead, watching for any hint that she doesn't like what he's doing.

[julivet-blog]

Juliette shakes her head, still grinning. “I wouldn’t have asked you if I wasn’t comfortable with it, idiot.” She pauses for a moment, looking down at Nick. “And I think it would be hot. Who’d turn away that kind of show?”

[heymrwolf-blog]

Monroe’s heart is beating far too fast considering they’re just resting, gentle petting. Juliette actually, really wants to share Nick with him, is willing to do that, wants do to that; not just allow Monroe to have him too sometimes. “I don’t know,” he says, voice a little rough. “I’m pretty sure a lot of women wouldn’t want to watch their boyfriend have sex with someone else.” 

[julivet-blog]

“Good thing I’m not like a lot of women then, isn’t it?” She moves her hand through Monroe’s hair, messing it up playfully. “So what are we going to do when he wakes up? Do you want me to…?”

[julivet-blog]

“I wouldn’t, Nick wouldn’t, we would never force you to do anything you are not comfortable with, but considering his situation…”

Juliette looks down at Nick. He’s still asleep, curled up into both of him and warmth spreads through Juliette’s stomach. Her smile turns into a teasing grin.

“Besides, I’d love to see you fuck him.”

[heymrwolf-blog]

It takes a few seconds for Juliette’s words to sink in. “You would? You’d want to… y’know, see that? I’m not saying it wouldn’t be okay, just, I’ve kind of been feeling like… I don’t want to make you uncomfortable,” he blurts out. “You and Nick… I’m really happy,” he says, more softly. “I don’t ever want to make you feel slighted.”

[julivet-blog]

Juliette shakes her head, still grinning. “I wouldn’t have asked you if I wasn’t comfortable with it, idiot.” She pauses for a moment, looking down at Nick. “And I think it would be hot. Who’d turn away that kind of show?”

"I'm pretty sure a lot of women wouldn't want to watch their boyfriend have sex with someone else." 

[julivet-blog]

“We talked about you, and me, sharing him in bed. I think Nick would really like it,” she says, twirling one of Monroe’s locks around her finger. “If that’s okay with you.”

[heymrwolf-blog]

Monroe swallows again, suddenly far more keenly aware of Nick’s warmth between them. “I hadn’t… really thought about that,” he says. And it’s not something he’s ever even done before, despite the considerable amount of interesting experiences he picked up in his younger, wilder years. But he cares about Nick, wants Nick, and he wants to make him happy, too. He looks at Juliette for a long moment. He might not want to fuck her, but he trusts her, and that’s the more important thing right now. “But if Nick said he wants to, I’m… we can try.” 

[julivet-blog]

[julivet-blog]

Juliette blinks and stares at Monroe for a moment, before she starts to laugh softly, trying not to wake up Nick between them. She moves up slightly and reaches with her arm over Nick to pet Monroe’s head.

“Don’t worry,” she says, still clearly amused. “You are a great guy and I know how much you mean to Nick and while I definitely like you too, I’m not sexually attracted to you.”

[heymrwolf-blog]

It dawns on Monroe as Juliette laughs that he’s misread the situation more than a little. “Oh,” he says. “So… uh… what have you talked about with Nick, then?” He leans his head into Juliette’s touch. His heart is beating fast, nervous. 

[julivet-blog]

[julivet-blog]

Juliette smiles at Monroe and squeezes his hand lightly. “I’ve talked about this with Nick before,” she starts, not sure how to break the topic without making Monroe uncomfortable. “The three of us, together.”

[heymrwolf-blog]

Monroe goes very still, fingers still in Juliette’s hair. It shouldn’t surprise him that Juliette and Nick have talked… of course they have. But for all that they’ve all slept cuddled together a few times in the last couple of months, it hadn’t crossed Monroe’s mind. And he’s pretty sure Juliette isn’t talking about just sleeping together.

He swallows. “Juliette… I really like you, but… I only like Nick that way, you know?” 

[julivet-blog]

[julivet-blog]

“Is it?” she asks with a teasing smile on her lips. If she’s honest with herself, Juliette is maybe just a little bit jealous of Monroe for sharing this with Nick, this part of him, this whole world she isn’t -can’t really be- part of. It’s stupid, because she knows Nick loves and trusts her just as much as she does him. And she likes Monroe. He’s good for Nick and Juliette knows she can count on him to look after Nick when she can’t.

With a sigh she shakes her head to dispel the thoughts and moves to place a kiss on Monroe’s fingertips. “What do we do when Nick wakes up and his, ah, heat is back?” Juliette raises her eyebrows in question.

[heymrwolf-blog]

The memory of the way Nick arched his back when Monroe pressed his splayed hand over the base of his tail while he was fucking him makes Monroe tense. “It is,” he confirms, hesitating before adding, “try stroking him right at the bottom of his spine. He’ll like that.” 

Monroe closes his eyes, warm and content and lulled by the comfort of skin on skin as Juliette kisses his fingers softly. 

“What do we do when Nick wakes up and his, ah, heat is back?”

Monroe opens his eyes. “Um. Well, what you’d expect, pretty much.” 

[julivet-blog]

Juliette smiles at Monroe and squeezes his hand lightly. “I’ve talked about this with Nick before,” she starts, not sure how to break the topic without making Monroe uncomfortable. “The three of us, together.”

He swallows. "Juliette... I really like you, but... I only like Nick that way, you know?" 

[julivet-blog]

Juliette lets go of Nick’s hand and reaches for Monroe’s. “He can be quite difficult, can’t he?” she admits and entangles her fingers with Monroe’s and rests their entwined hands on top of Nick’s. Monroe’s hands are big and rough and she vaguely wonders what they look like against Nick’s skin, what they look like when they form those bruises on Nick’s hips that she loves to dig her own fingers into.

“I wish I could, you know,” Juliette says after a while and her smile turned a little sad. “Smell him, see him like you do. Sometimes I think I can feel his tail brushing against me, or his ears when I stroke through his hair, but…”

[heymrwolf-blog]

Monroe snorts. “‘Difficult’ is being nice about it, really.“ He squeezes Juliette’s hand gently. It is nice, touching her. Comfortable and warm in a totally different way to the feelings Nick’s touch and smell bring out in him.

“Honestly? It’s kind of distracting most of the time,” Monroe says, slipping his arm under Nick’s neck so he can stay nuzzled close to him, but reach Juliette’s hair with his fingers. It’s as soft as Nick’s cat ears, and he pets her soothingly as he knows how. “I guess it has its moments.” He pauses. “The tail is definitely fun, I’m not going to try to say it’s not.”

[julivet-blog]

“Is it?” she asks with a teasing smile on her lips.

He’s good for Nick and Juliette knows she can count on him to look after Nick when she can’t.

[julivet-blog]

Nick is fast asleep in no time, seemingly dead to the world. Juliette smiles when he snores softly and lifts her free hand up to push Nick’s bangs aside. He still feels slightly feverish to her touch, but asleep like this Nick looks peaceful as if a huge weight has been lifted from his shoulders.

“You must have exhausted him a lot,” she teases, looking over Nick’s head at Monroe. 

[heymrwolf-blog]

“A bit,” Monroe says evasively, still not entirely sure he feels okay about telling Juliette all the dirty details about how he fucked her boyfriend into a sleepy stupor. “He was pretty insistent about it, and… well, you can’t smell him right now like I can. He’s even harder to say no to than usual.” He shifts so he can meet her eyes, brushing his fingers more deliberately against hers. “I’m just glad he wore out before I did.”

[julivet-blog]

Nick bares his teeth at Monroe and stabs a ravioli with the fork just a bit harder than needed. ”Spoilsport,” he says, chewing on his food, but he leans into Monroe’s caress anyway. Juliette laughs softly, her fingers idly playing with his.

Nick is smiling when he lifts the fork to his moth for the next bite.

[heymrwolf-blog]

The chatter over the food is almost normal, as far as anything they ever do is normal. Nick gives both of them mouthfuls off his fork and Juliette talks about work, and Monroe is kind of glad she doesn’t ask how their day was, because that isn’t an easy question to answer without potential awkwardness. Once the pasta is gone, Nick yawns, seemingly content to snuggle back down between them both for  more of a nap. Monroe settles in comfortably, nose close to Nick’s hair, fingers pressed against Juliette’s over Nick’s hand on his stomach.

[thefairestgrimm-blog-deactivate]

Nick grins and grabs Juliette’s hand to stop her from hitting him. She entwines their fingers and Nick lowers his arms until their hands are resting gently on top of his stomach.

“Maybe you should feed me then.” He says and turns his head to the side to nuzzle at Monroe’s neck. “As you can see, my hands are kind of occupied.” He lightly shakes the bottle in his other hand to demonstrate his point.

[heymrwolf-blog]

Monroe snorts, and grabs the water bottle out of Nick’s hand. “You’re not sick and you’re not hurt. You can hold a fork,” he says, putting the cutlery in Nick’s hand. He does, however, hold the plate for him. Monroe’s well-versed enough in Nick’s antics by now to not always let him get away with them, but this isn’t exactly always. He slips his fingers back between Nick’s ears, stroking gently.

[julivet-blog]

“Receptive?” she echoes, a wry smile on her lips. “With all that mating, should I be expecting a bunch of puppies and kittens soon then?”

Nick makes a a strange gurgling noise and swats her arm lightly. Juliette laughs, hitting him back.

[heymrwolf-blog]

Monroe is pretty sure he’s blushing. He thinks he is, so he hides his face against Nick’s hair, rubbing his cheek against it and breathing in big lungfuls of his smell. Which _really_ doesn’t help with his resolution not to lick Nick in front of Juliette. Really, really doesn’t help, and he’s tilting his head lower to lick the strong, fast beat of his pulse before he really thinks about it. 

He lifts his head, heart beating fast. “Um. You still need to eat, Nick. Before it gets cold.”

[thefairestgrimm-blog-deactivate]

Nick grins and grabs Juliette’s hand to stop her from hitting him. She entwines their fingers and Nick lowers his arms until their hands are resting gently on top of his stomach.

[julivet-blog]

Juliette raises her eyebrows. “I don’t have any more shifts for this weekend,” she says and casts a quick glance at Monroe, trying to think of a way to word her next question. 

Closing her eyes for a second, she takes a deep breath. “So… what exactly does this mean? You being in heat.” Juliette is a vet, she knows very well what happens when a queen goes into heat, but Nick wasn’t actually a cat and neither was he a female.

[heymrwolf-blog]

Monroe presses in closer to Nick’s side, feeling the warmth still sitting just under his skin, the distracting scent of him. And it’s not that he feels like he needs to compete with Juliette… far from it. But right now, he needs to be close to Nick.

“If it comes back, I’ll have both of you here with me, yes?”

Nick’s soft ears twitch against Monroe’s fingers, and he glances at Juliette as she answers. He can’t help but frown at her question. “I really honestly don’t know, exactly. This is kinda unusual territory, even for me.” He reaches across to splay his fingers over Nick’s tail where it’s curled around Juliette’s arm, letting his fingertips touch her skin affectionately and feeling the sleekly furred muscle of Nick’s tail under his palm. “He…” Monroe hesitates, looks away from Juliette’s attentive gaze to the soft lines of Nick’s cat ears. “He smells… receptive, so if he goes out he’s going to potentially attract Wesen attention. And he, uh, needs to be mated. Frequently. It’ll help it go faster too.”

[julivet-blog]

“Receptive?” she echoes, a wry smile on her lips. “With all that mating, should I be expecting a bunch of puppies and kittens soon then?”

Nick makes a a strange gurgling noise and swats her arm lightly. Juliette laughs, hitting him back.

He lifts his head, heart beating fast. "Um. You still need to eat, Nick. Before it gets cold."

[heymrwolf-blog]

“You wore me out,” Monroe says, rubbing his fingers between Nick’s ears and watching the way his throat works as he takes big swallows of water. It’s really not helping Monroe’s desire to not be caught licking Nick, so he glances away, and sees Juliette in the doorway. 

She kisses them both like it’s nothing, and it’s easier now, to accept the flush of warmth her affection gives rather than fighting it. It’s even easier to watch her kiss Nick without feeling like an usurper in someone else’s relationship… he felt awkward at first, strange, but lately it just makes him smile when he sees her grin and Nick and haul him in for a kiss.

He knows how she feels, and it’s hard to be anything but happy about it. 

“Your fever seems to be down,” Juliette says, resting her forehead against Nick’s.

“Yeah,” Monroe says, shifting his fingers to scritch just behind one of Nick’s cat ears. “I don’t know how long the heat will last, but we seem to have taken care of it for now, at least.”

[thefairestgrimm-blog-deactivate]

Nick closes his eyes and leans into the caress, his ears twitching against Monroe’s fingers. He enjoys having both of them close, their scents soothing him, and Nick purrs softly.

Juliette is moving until she’s half sitting between his legs, her own draped over his right one and the edge of the bed. Nick feels her place a hand on his stomach, her thumb softly rubbing across skin, and he opens his eyes to look at her. She’s smiling at him and he curls his tail around her wrist and arm.

“If it comes back, I’ll have both of you here with me, yes?”

Monroe presses in closer to Nick's side, feeling the warmth still sitting just under his skin, the distracting scent of him. And it's not that he feels like he needs to compete with Juliette... far from it. But right now, he needs to be close to Nick.

“If it comes back, I’ll have both of you here with me, yes?”

Nick's soft ears twitch against Monroe's fingers, and he glances at Juliette as she answers. He can't help but frown at her question. "I really honestly don't know, exactly. This is kinda unusual territory, even for me." He reaches across to splay his fingers over Nick's tail where it's curled around Juliette's arm, letting his fingertips touch her skin affectionately and feeling the sleekly furred muscle of Nick's tail under his palm. "He..." Monroe hesitates, looks away from Juliette's attentive gaze to the soft lines of Nick's cat ears. "He smells... receptive, so if he goes out he's going to potentially attract Wesen attention. And he, uh, needs to be mated. Frequently. It'll help it go faster too."
